i sold my old galaxy fit when i bought the note 2 but since my old phone charger had a longer wire so i kept the old charger and gave him the note 2 charger.. cz my bed is a little away from the plug point.
i just wanted to confirm if the specs of the charger are the same.
thnks
They're probably not the same. Note II's charger is rated to 2A (@5V).
The one im using is output 5.0v and 0.7A
Will it cause any damage or any problem...
My note 1 also used a 5.0v 0.7 A charger.

Don't worry: it won't cause damage. It will only take longer to charge.
Thanks a lot buddy!!!

If it is 1 amp it should be fine!
If more, the phone should somehow limit it but you never know.

In my experience, using a tablet charger with a cell phone charged the battery faster than the cell phone charger, but the battery also discharged a lot faster. Your mileage may vary.
I ordered the International Version of the SGN2 and it'll be here on Tuesday but I have an important question to ask. I watched several unboxings on YouTube and I could help but notice all of them came with the UK prongs for the AC adapter.
My question is how are the north american users charging their new Galaxy Note 2's?
Did you guys buy an adapter? Use a different charger? (If so would the nexus 7's charger work?)
Please advise...

You should be OK with almost any USB 5V charger rated at 1A or more, but a 2A charger, like the Nexus 7's, would be the quickest.

I'm glad you started this thread. This has been on my mind all morning. My GN2 should be here Monday. If anyone has a link to a good 2A charger please post.

I ordered from Negrielectronics so I doubt I'll be getting one. What did they give you? 2A?

When you pre order from handtec they throw in a free adapter, and the note charges super fast like 10% to a 100% in 2 and a half hours.

Anyone in Canada (Toronto area in particular) know where to buy one of these?
I know they're on eBay but I can't find it on the source.ca
Any suggestions?

I have American Style adapters with converter prongs, and have been using it on 220v here in Korea. I've used it the other way as well. They all work no problem.

AFAIK, the charging voltage on the Note II is the same 5V as all other phones, thus any USB charger should work. The only difference is in the current rating. A (tablet) charger rated for up to 2A will charge it faster, while others will be slower. Heck, you could use a 0.5A BT headset charger too! It will just take over 24 hours to fully charge the beast.
The current rating is the amount of current the device can supply safely. Its like a tap, the bigger the spout, the faster the water flow.

Actually my s2 charger (5v 0.7a) charges my note2 from 7% to 100% in 5 hours.
I'm considering keeping that charger for daily use as my note2 only charges during the night anyways while im sleeping and I think its more gentle on the battery to slow charge it. And I'll keep the 2A charger for emergencies.

Hello,
I picked up a Samsung oem charger from eBay and noticed it differs in output amps in comparison to the wall charger that came with the phone. The charger bundled with the phone is rated at 1 amp, but the one I just bought is rated at .7 amp.
Is it okay to charge the phone with the .7 amp charger? I'm afraid the phone will think it is 1 amp and miss calculate the charge of the battery. I don't know if this is something to worry about or not so I thought I'd ask. Thanks.
Phone: Galaxy S3 SGH-t999
ROM: CM10 Stable
Charger Model Numbers
1 amp = ETA0U61JBE
.7 amp = ETA0U60JBE
It should work just fine. May take slightly longer to charge though.

I have a .7 amp plugged in next to my bed for overnight charges and it works just fine. It won't charge my tab2 to 100% though.

Will it really be that much longer in comparison to charging via USB? :cyclops:
Edit: USB via PC
Usb via pc is .5 amps
If it makes you feel any better I just received the OEM dock and it came with a 700mA charger not 1A. I agree that it won't charge as fast as a 1A charger but it shouldn't make that much of a difference.
It'll probably take 30% longer to fully charge with a .7 vs a 1amp

Quick charge mode and older ac-wall chargers
The store owner of where I bought my phone advised against using anything other than the charger that came with the phone. Mine is a Galaxy S4. Supposedly this came down from on high from Samsung. Supposedly, the phone does not differenciate between chargers and will try to pull max amperage when the wiring configuration matches a wall charger (looped data lines?).
For example, I have an old Galaxy S1 charger rated for 0.7 amps and my indicator app shows my phone pulling 1.9 amps through it when the cable is straight as can be. So far, I have not found this charger to become hot and there may be a possibilty of it catching fire since it is not designed for 2.1 amps that the phone is capable of pulling.
Someone I know used a car DC to USB adapter that was rated for under what the phone could pull and in short time the adapter itself either caught on fire or melted. Somewhere in between.
The phone will pull as much as it tests that the power chain can deliver and that is whether or not that power chain can safely deliver it. Proceed with caution.
I was wondering if I'd be causing my phone any harm charging it with my nexus 7 charger? It seems to charge super slow with my Samsung charger and my nexus charger can have my phone charged up under 2 hrs. It's insanely fast so just looking to be cautious with my phone.

I have a Nexus 7, too. The chargers have the same output, so you should be able to use them interchangeably. They should also charge in the same amount of time, so it makes me think something is wrong with your Samsung charger.
How much longer does it take with your Samsung charger?
That's strange, both chargers take the same amount of time to charge for me...

I want to buy a spare battery and external battery charger for a Galaxy Note 2. I already have external chargers for both an S2 and an S3 - does anyone know if the Note 2 battery can be charged with either of the same chargers? (e.g. is the battery roughly the same size)?
Edit: scratch that, misread the post.

Presumably you mean the USB charger (i.e. the one that plugs into the phone)? My question concerned the external chargers that charge batteries when they are not in the phone

Well even that. They are all supposed to be interchangeable anyway. I'm using korean note 1, s3, s1, xperia arc s, desire etc chargers. The korean note has an external battery charger which all the chargers seem to work fine with.
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda premium
S3 has four pins on the battery and and note 2 has three. I'm not sure the last pin could be for nfc since its on the battery in s3 but still I doubt the chargers are interchangeable unless you have one of those really cheap and nasty ones where you can slide the actual charging pins across to meet the pins on any battery.
