Note 10.1 Chargers

Could anyone check the current rating of the supplied charger?
My Note should be arriving soon from the UK - although I could use an international plug converter, I don't really like the idea.
On the other hand I have a Belkin charger for my iPhone for 0.5A. Do you think this is enough?
Thx.

No. The original charger has an output 2 A at 5 V. And even with 2 A the Note 10.1 is only slowly charging.

The charger is rated 2A.
In addition, it uses a nonstandard method for "dumb charger" detection. If you connect an iPad charger or a standard 2A charger, it will not be detected.
The device needs to see D+ and D- shorted together AND floating at around 1.2 volts to charge. Same rules as all other Samsung tablets.
It is possible to find special Samsung Tablet charging adapters that will let it be used with iPad 2A chargers - here's an example of a DIY one - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1675042

I'm using the same ones I had for the 7.0+ and 7.7 and they're charging the 10.1 just fine. Looks like .35A (old eyes here)!

The Tab 10.1 charger should work, right?

Tab 10.1 chargers will work. In fact I haven't even pulled my original charger out of the box, using the Tab 10.1 charger I already have.

My Note won't charge from an iPad charger but it has no trouble charging from an inexpensive PowerGen charger with the original Samsung cable or a cheap copycat cable.

I guess apple and samsung are real bussiness enemies
But, it's still better to use the original charger. And yes correct, with the 2A output rated, the note also slowly charge. Different from the N7000, which is quite fast to charge.

Can anyone link me to an identical charger to that which came out of the box that I can buy? Need to return my Note 10.1 but I have lost my cord.
Edit: Or one that at least looks identical.

Here's a good deal on the OEM charger. Be careful on eBay and Amazon, a lot of what's sold there are knock-offs.

I may pull the trigger on one of these. However, it is disconcerting to see a review of a cord that is also marketed as a a Galaxy Tab cord being reported by a reviewer on amazon as not fitting or charging.
Here's that cable:

The cord on Amazon's probably a knock-off. Yes, I've bought from all4cellular before. I've also gotten burned a couple of times on Amazon and eBay. E-mail them and confirm what's listed on their website is a genuine Samsung product. It may be shipped in a cellophane package vs. retail packaging but that won't matter as long as it’s OEM.

If you wish to burn your GN 10.1, yes. Otherwise, for your safety, no.

There are plenty of car chargers on eBay for the Note & Tab 10.1.
There is a brand called Pleomax, which is another brand name of Samsung accessories out of Korea.
You can also get a Samsung Note 10.1 charger (which is really the same as the Tab) for about 18.00 and plus 3.50 for shipping.
See eBay Item number: 160865117877. This is the one I just purchased.
The Note and Tab chargers are all 12v and 2a rated.

No... They are not. 5 volts output at up to 2A, not 12 volts.
Car chargers accept 12 volt INPUT, but the OUTPUT (to the Tab/Note) is 5v.
12v will fry the Tab/Note. The Note and Tab use a more standard charger detection algorithm than Asus Transformers (which actually have 12v charging...)

I'm getting roughly 15% an hour using this mod. I only use it for overnight charging works good for me. It does work through thin cases like thin tpu cases, probably not with thicker cases.
The mod was fairly basic not to complicated, got it to work first try. I have had usb ports go out on me with other phones hope this helps the life of my usb port on my phone.

Aaronkellys link goes to simple wireless charging mod.

OP,
Make sure you're using the Perseus kernel. That way your touchstone will charge your phone at 900mA instead of 500mA. And to all wondering, running the touchstone at 900mA is safe, the Galaxy Nexus crowd has been doing it for months.

Having a little trouble with wireless charging
I really want to try this but wanted to give it a go on my old phone first for practice. I busted open the old evo and read every tutorial I could find on every phone I could find. Got my leads out to the back of the phone but it just will not charge. When I have just the back on the touchstone and read it with the multimeter I get 5.6 volts. If I plug the phone into the wall charger and test the leads I get 4.4 volts. Can anyone tell me what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks

Can anyone confirmed that this information correct? I read somewhere that it limit the wireless charging to only 500mA?

I'll stick with my 2A wired charge, and only charge my phone for 2.5 hours....instead of 6.
Neat feature...but they need to bump up the ampage.

If you know it does not why would you start a thread? It makes no sense. It does not have a removable battery cover so there is no way to add wireless charging without hardware modifications.

Ok, thats new for me. But there is one chance. There could be a case with qi Receiver and usb connector or if it has pins for a docking station then with connection to them.

Have you popped the back cover off to see if the pins are there?
If they are then a modded qi receiver would work great.

I do not own the Note 10.1. Thats the reason why I'm asking dumb questions.
For the Note 8 someone added a Qi Receiver with USB connector and hide it under a case.

He is not talking about taking the back cover off. He is talking about a case that has a plug that goes into the existing charge port of the tablet and there is a wireless charging coil within the case itself.
No, I have not seen any.
Yes, I do want one.

Does the Note 10.1 2014 has Connectors for a Docking Station? If yes, this would be an option to realize it without using an usb connector.

I, too, would love to add wireless charging capabilities to the Note.
I read a story on the iQi Mobile - Seamless Wireless Charging For iPhone and tried to find a similar product for micro usb ports. I came across a possible alternative but don't have any experience with the website/seller of the product.

Do you guys think something like this would work?
One disadvantage would be that you would have to unplug the cable to use a regular charging cable, but I think I could live with that.

in my opinion this seems legit and ok.
Of course it's annoying to remove the cable everytime, but for having wireless charging
l already thought about this on my HTC Eo 3D but did not want to spend too much money on that since it is no Must-have in my opinion.

Qi Enabled Wireless Charger Platform & Charge Receiver Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014
www .amazon.com/Walsontop-Wireless-Platform-Charging-Compatible/dp/B00LC6WGB2 There are still people looking for the holy grail. "Human satisfaction.

you can attach a receiving case to the note 4, so why not the note 10.1 (2014) ?

As Qi supports 15 instead of 5 Watt (since 06/2015), we only need to wait for the next tablet generation. I think in the future we will see Qi on much more tablets.

i think you are looking for this

No, because the quality is poor and it is qi 1.0. I think at the moment there are no qi receiver supporting qi 1.1?! And of course it would be much nicer to have a receiver built-in or under the battery cover.

Am I the only one that doesn't like qi charging? I have it and a pad for my nexus 5 and 7fhd and just don't use it that often. I use my phone often when it's on the charger and qi is much slower than the wire. I just can't see using it

Thats because you're using it wrong. I have 4 Qi pads and they are placed everywhere I stay for a longer time like bed, desk, couch, etc. By that its the most comfortable charging.
And if fast charging is the only reason you need to know that Qi released Version 1.1 with 15 watts (same speed as USB 3.0). But it seems Samsung bought exclusive rights at the moment (Note 5), so we need to wait for other devices supporting it. But I do not miss it.

[Q] Note 2 Wireless Charging not working

Hi there
I recently purchased a wireless charger and receiver for my Note 2. I am running CM 4.3
I inserted the card contacts to the right side of the phone and ensured contact. when i place my device on the charging pad it simply turns blue indicating it is charging but ..... my battery continues to drain and does not notify me its charging
Any idea whats going on ?
Thank you!
I have a Qi Standard Wireless charger and a note 2 receiver.

If you have the Tmo T899 Note 2 then there are some hardware modifications that must be made for wireless charging to work. Search the Note 2 general forum and you will find instructions.

[Q] AT&T Note 4 support qi charging?

Hey all,
For those who got their Note 4 early from AT&T did they pull a fast one like the LG G3 and rip out qi charging pins in favor for powermat?
Thanks!

My understanding of qi with the note4 was that it only was available with the optional case, and it's not built into the phone.
Wasn't built into the s5 either.
Sent from my SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Can someone with an att note 4 pop in a qi receiver and see if it charge up? I have a bad feeling they went pma just like the g3.

It's Qi charger. I don't have the adapter yet, but others have pointed out that the contact points on the back match the Qi specifications. I just got my Note 4, and opened the back, and indeed the contacts are identical to my wife's S4

Just because it has the Wireless charging contact pickups, doesn't necessarily mean it will work with Qi. The LG g3 had the same contact pickups, but at&t disabled Qi charging at the hardware level, and made those contacts only work with pma charging receivers.

let say wireless charging works, will it still take advantage of the fast charging feature though?coz I don't think so

NO, wireless charging is a Lot Slower charging than with your USB cable and AC adapter for Fast Charge.

It supports Qi. I bought the official samsung back. I use it with a Qi charger I bought off amazon. Works great but due to bulk, limits my cases.

Wireless charging can be done if you buy a wireless charging battery cover and these have them built in also. A cheaper route is just buying these little wireless recievers and stick them in, you can get them cheaper on ebay (but my work computer can't access Ebay sites).
Wireless charging IS slower than normal charging, its all about convenience. I have a few around the the house and a couple at work. Most output .5 - 1 amp range compared to 2+ amp chargers and the included adaptive fast chargers.
The links are for example only, not telling anyone to buy anything. Hope this helps.
