If Your phone is running battery intensive apps its gunna take longer to charge. For instance...if I'm running navigation with music and the screen is on high brightness I will still LOSE power while I'm charging on my trucks USB.

Something wrong with your charger. Try another charger, if it charges ok with another charger then obviously your charger is at fault. Get a replacement from Samsung.

Thanks mate..will try that

Make sure you use the charger provided. The note 2 uses 2mA. Most phones use 1mA.

That would be 2 A and 1 A, not mA!!

Make sure you are using the same cable as provided. One time I changed to a different and longer cable and it took forever to charge.

+1, the longer cable also not able to withstand charge while using the phone...

note 2 Charging time

Hi all im alil new to android mostly delt with apple but I couldnt resist this phone.
My question is my iphone 4s fully charged in like an 1-1n a half from dead
By note 2 at&t version takes 5-7 hrs to charge from dead is that normal
Also if it helps im on jedi 6.1.2 rom
I never let the battery drain out when I was stock so im unsure if its the rom
but the rom has better battery life so I doubt it
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium

The 4s has a 1432 mAh battery and the Note 2 has a 3100 mAh, it should take longer to charge if it has more than twice the capacity.
5-7 hours seems long to me, mine charges quite quickly on stock ROM. Are you charging via USB? Are you using the charger that came with the phone? It is a 2 amp charger, much higher than many generic chargers or chargers you may have lying around from old phones.

Yup Im using the one it came with I have insurance but im rooted and off stock not sure if theyll replace it only had it 3-4weeks I was aboit to order some extra batteries I just dont no if it's hardware related. Isbthe anyway to check it

My Note II has always taken exactly 2.5 hours to go from absolute dead to fully-charged. I saw someone else on this site post the same thing. If your phone is taking that long to charge, either one of two things are the culprit: either you have a defective phone/battery or you are not using the Samsung wall charger that came with the phone. I can tell you, now, that if you use anything other than that official Samsung charger, it will take 2-3 times as long to charge your device.

Not looking good for me then, I just flashed the jedi rom a few days ago
I mite try to go back to stock and see if there's a difference because from half life on stock it took less then a hr
Can go stock simply by using he past nanRoid backup if so can I then use the backup to go back to jedi ??

Yes on nandroid questions. Possible defective cable as a check vs taking phone back. Mine charges in 2.5 hours. Also just checked yesterday with charging from a generic Walmart bought dual usb car charger with the stock charging cable and it took 1 hour to go from 58% to 100.

"The one" what? The white plug that goes into the wall socket, or just the USB cable and plugging it into your computer to charge?
I ask because you weren't specific and there will be a significant difference if you're plugging into your computer via USB versus plugging into the wall with the white Samsung charger. The cable isn't particularly relevant, but the actual "plug" piece is ... it's 2mA vs the 0.5mA of most computer/laptop USB ports.

There sending me one in the mail, they said it had a lil green erosion in the charger port maybe water damage, I hope they dont try charging me full price of the phone i just got it 3-4weekss ago and its never been anywhere near water and my case protects all openings
Pray for me yall

Restoring rom (stock/custom) on phone with broken USB port???

Well topic says it all. I have a phone that has a busted port. I tried to one click restore back to stock when the port died so not only does it have a bad port it failed during flashing so it can't even boot up. What options do I have?

Questions go in Q & A forums.
How do you know port is bad?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app

Depends on where in the process the flash failed, it could be hardbricked or may need to be jtagged to rewrite the bootloader. If it won't boot into download or recovery mode and only has a solid blue led then its toast. Otherwise with a bad port and no OS you dont have many options. I honestly dont even think there's a way to flash something from stock recovery without a USB port or OS to move the zip into cache so stock recovery can flash it. And the only other option is Odin which again without a working USB won't do you any good. And like blues said questions go in Q&A you know Q(uestions)&A(nswers)
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2

Sorry about wrong forum.
The phone can go into recovery and download mode. I am assuming the port is broke BC I can't charge the battery through it and the computer doesn't recognize the phone when plugged in and in download mode.
This is what I feared! So phone is pretty much a paperweight. Arg...
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk

Well I take it back, I think only a couple pins in the port is broken BC I can use the USB jig to get the phone into download mode. So the port is not completely broken. I don't know what pins are used for whatever process but charging and data sync no gooo. I have tried several dif cables including the Samsung one and a blackberry one.

Tried a different usb cable? Maybe the male pins are borked. I had one that got slightly bent and it wouldn't charge for sh*t but would let me transfer files just fine go figure

Well then you are screwed. Good luck getting a new phone if $40 is too much to send it out, get it fixed and have it back where you can flash it all day long.

Charger wont connect

Been running macks rom ljc for about 2 weeks now and have been noticing when I plug up my phone to charge at night it has a delayed response to notify me thats its charging..but today it has completely stopped charging. Nor will it connect to my pc. My wife has the same phone and her cord wouldn't work for mine either. Can anyone help?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium

Uh oh im extra carefull when plugging it in. Theres teeth on the charger (UsB) that are missing. Think the port of the note 2 is like this or maybe im the only one dont snap like it does on the s3

My cord works just fine for my wife's. Does that mean its the port on my phone? ?

Problem charging while note is on

Hi today found out that my note is acting strange whenever I try to charge while its on it wont let me the charging icon shows with a big red cross on it and wont charge a bit it just keeps draining. Tried while its off and it works normally , disturbs me to have to turn it off each time I want to charge it, anyone experienced this before?
Sent from my GT-N5110 using xda premium

are you using the stock charger. if not make sure that the aftermarket charger is a 2A charger.

Its the usb connection signal. Mine did that occasionaly too, but not lately. It should recognize its charging after a second or two

i have no issues when using stock charger and cable, I run across this with other charges and cables that are less than 2 amps though
what kind of charger are you using or cable?

Thanks for your answers guys its the stock one which makes this kinda strange.

Yes this has happened to me on a couple of occasions. Unplugging and plugging it back in solved the problem. I also discovered that not only does the charger matter, but I got different results (charging times) using the same charger but different cables. Maybe there are different guage wire used in the cables?

yes, the cable also matters to handle the extra amps, so you need both the stock charger and cable combo

My stock cable went bad somehow and I had the same problem. It wouldn't charge at all. Even overnight

After reading this thread, I went and downloaded an app called Galaxy Charging Current. I know there are a lot of battery management apps out there, but this is a really simple, basic app that tells you how many amps are flowing thro the charger and cable to your device. My device using OEM pulls 1.8A.
I'll be buying a car charger from Amazon and will use this app to determine if it performs as claimed.

There are many others, but don't work on the Galaxy line becuase the max they show is 1 amp. I've tried them all
