Any one having problem with the supplied usb cable by samsung?
Mine is a bit loose, meaning I cant use my phone while charging it because of the usb cable connected to the phone os not that snug fit.
Any workaround to fix this issue. Opinions needed.
Thanks

Me too, many people are reporting this also.. You have to send yours back to Samsung and they'll send you a new one they're aware of this issue.. But who knows if you'll even get a good one.. Some people were shaving the top down I'll try and find a link to that thread, I'm Gunna be trying it also..

I just put a piece of paper over the middle 2 pins on the other end of the USB cable.

Not dangerous. It disables the data pins so the phone thinks it's plugged into a wall charger.

I just use a wall charger. Tmobile brand and I use the usb cable for the pc. So the paper mod is for the pc charging?

Yes, it puts it in fast charge. Probably depends on the USB port's voltage as to if it works, I'm using front panel port on my Mac pro at work.

Can someone make a video regarding this method? I maybe retarded or something. I get that disabling data can trick into fast charge. But why not just disable data (USB connection) in the settings? Wouldn't that be a same difference?
Please someone make a video to show and confirm this. I also know that amperage can make a difference in charging method. Will non-high voltage with this mod will enable it like the wall charger??

Its not just "disabling" data ports on the USB.. Its built into a kernel from source, there is no third party app that can enable this. If it simply disabled the "data" functionality of the USB then simply cutting the cable apart and cutting out the two prongs would enable this but it doesnt. It is kernel based stuff.
The kernel pretty much can tell whats plugged into it, AC Charger, USB Charger, Car charger.
When you enable fast charging you are only able to enable it for the last two options. Enabling simply tells the kernel that it is able to charge faster based off of how the kernel is coded. If you have source code for the kernel, you technically could tell it to charge at 1000mV (1 volt) but that would destroy whatever charger you are using for nothing can charge that fast (yet)
Simply put, fast charging is a kernel level mod that no third party app is capable of enabling without firstly the kernel supporting it.
Charger pin fits firmly in the charger port but comes out easily, I will not say it's loose but when I am using the phone while charging it comes out easily.
Is it the same for you all ?
Yes. . Same thing here

Mine has no problem at all it fits in so tight that i accidentally pulled it and my phone fell on the carpet
Mine is sloppy too. I have a nice Amazon cable that "clicks" in place firmly that I like to use instead.

Are you using the cable that came with the phone? I know HTC phones use micro usb but if you use non-htc cables they will not fit as good. Maybe that's the same with SGN2?
I am using the cable that came along with this note.

I've been using Aduro 10ft USB cable for a while now and I love it. It charges fast and I have 0 issues with it. Plus its 10 feet long, how can you go wrong? Haha

Does that cable help with quicker charging? and does it lead to over heating?

Charges just like the original. Same speed i'd say. Only down side is the head is on the bigger size, i had to trim a little to fit most cases i have. If u have case with large port then u shouldn't have any issues.

I have to bend my cord up to get my phone to charge. Is this a warranty exchange issue? T mobile take care of this? Just curious while I'm on tonight before I go the t mobile route or Samsung. Searched and saw it's pretty cheap to fix yourself with the right know how

I had the same problem and its not your phone. Its the the cheap charging cable they gave us. Just go out and buy another cable and you'll be fine.

I have a T-Mobile note 3 and I just bought it 2 days ago and I've noticed that the phone stops charging when I move it even slightly, and the only way to make it start charging again is to bend the cable so it is straight, again from the end, also it(the cable) seems loose and look's As if it hasn't gone in fully into the charging port, because It wiggles a lot. Please help!!?

Sounds like a hardware issue. I would take it back to the store and get it replaced.

Could it be an issue with the cable, because I charged it using a USB 2.0 charger and it worked perfectly?

Solution, just buy a new usb cable, could not be easier than that!
You can use either a usb 3.0 cable which came with
the phone or a usb 2.0 cable, it works fine either way.
Good luck!
OK thanks guys, it turns out the clip on The plug was broken, which is why it wasnt firm when I plugged it in, but I just bought a new one and that solved the problem.
