How long does it take for your phone to jump the 10% marks (i.e., 40 -> 50, etc.)? Mine seems to charge very fast which I feel may be related to the bad battery life.
again ...why new thread? u open like 5-10 threads each day
no need to open a new thread for each question u have, u could have easily asked this in a thread that u also started today "How fast do you drop to 90%?" or any other battery related thread
and to answer your question, yes it charges fast ..maybe 10-15minutes
and I doubt its related to your bad battery life
Sorry man, but I have to echo the sentiment......less threads...your starting to clutter. Create One thread for all of your issues.
i didn't caculate the between each 10% ,but i could charging my battery fully in 2.5 to 3 hours from 5% may be it could help you
From 0 to 100 takes about an hour I think for me.
I always charge from pc usb port (have 3 brand new unused usb chargers now ). It takes around 3 hours to charge from 10% to 100%.
Hi it may sound weird but my defy seems to last longer charged from a wall socket rather than via my pc usb cable
and a full charge is maybe 1 hour

Finally I tried the charger. It's much faster, took just a little more than 1 hour to charge from 15% to 100%.
Mine takes 2.5 to 3 hours to reload in the socket. Seems kinda long.
I don't turn it off, but a do have a htc changer instead of the defeault.
Don't ask me why.
Guys this issue is annoying me. My device is having some charging problems. I have measured the charging time for last two charges, and its taking 3 hours 40 mins for 10% to 100%, and 4 hours from 0% to 100%. Where most people are saying it takes around 3 hours, from a complete drain to full 100%.
So have any of you guys ever measured the actual time of charging? A lots of comments I see say around this or around that, or from 2 hours to 3 hours, well that's not what I need. If anyone has measured the time then please post here. I'm thinking about going to SC, but I don't wanna go there until I'm totally sure that there is a problem.
PS: I'm talking about Stock charger, (2A) plugged in AC power source. And device should be on, not off.
Btw- There should be a technical answer to this, the charging current is 2A and the battery is 3100 mAh, so how could I do the math?
Thanks in advance.

I don't know the math stuff but why don't you try calibrating the battery - worth trying !
Knowing that info is only half the truth. How the phone charges the battery and how much energy your phone uses during the charge matters too.

The time taken to charge is a pretty simple mathematical formula. But the rest of the calculation is complicated.
If you phone is on, how bright is the screen, is the display on or off, are you on wifi or network data, are you syncing email every 15 minutes or every hour, are you using the phone to send messages during charge, have you got gmail, dropbox, facebook, instagram, whatsapp, etc etc etc all doing a sync at regular intervals during the charge?
All of those things will use up some of the charge as its going in, so the charger is fighting against you.
I've been charging off usb at work and struggled to gain 20% in 8 hours because of my usage pattern.
Theoretical time for charge is about 1:30 hrs. Reality, start and ending charge should slow down (for safety), heat slow downs, plus usage of phone as spoken above I guess it could take up to 3 hrs.
It's not great to do a full charge regularly. I tend to keep mine between 40-90% for maximum life cycle of battery.
Perhaps try resetting battery stats? Try a different 2a charger?

I was testing how long it takes to charge, so I didn't even touch the phone while it was charging.

1:30 hours? Could you kindly explain how?
And I've wiped my device fully, also reseted battery stats.
One thing I'd to next is, I'll turn the device off and see how long it takes then.

Mine takes 2.5 hrs to charge from 10% to 100% with phone on using stock wall charger and cable (when charged continuosly with no activity on phone). It charged from 1% to 96% in 2.5 hrs with phone switched off (switched it on exactly after 2.5 hrs to check). But, usually i avoid charging my phones to full 100% (also always charge it when at 10%).

Try with another note 2 charger first. The thing with these chargers is they will behave erratically when there is voltage fluctuation or if you use in a train and other cases. So go to SC and tell them its taking almost double time for me to get charged. They will replace the charger as well the cable. My cousin has the same problem with s3. He got it replaced by the SC.

Thanks Chaitanya. But the SC guys are so stupid here. First thing they do always are to take the phone in their custody and deal with it badly. Still I will ask them to replace the charger and check.
Some of us have noted that if you let the screen time out and not manually shut screen off after connecting the charger. ..The charging is faster. . If you manually shut off the screen. .. The charging is slow.... It is weird but don't know why. .it definitely is happening
handwritten from my note 2 (N7100)
Mine takes about 3 hours to charge fully from 15 %
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Op: I said theoretical it will take 1:30.. Realistically it should slow down during stages due to safety reasons.
Mine took probably 3 hours the other day I ran it down, but this was combination of using 1a and 2a charger.
I think on the note 2 it doesn't ramp up power till it gets to 20-30%. Took a while to get there from 2%. If only battery widget was working on the note 2..then I could confirm.

Are you using the charger that came with Note2 ? I was using my old blackberry charger and it took for ever to charge the phone.
The output of the Note2's charger is more than twice the output of my blackberry charger.
^ Yeah, of course I am using the stock charger that came with Note 2! I'd not create this topic if I had used another charger.
Anyway, after a long week in Service Center now my phone is back, they provided me a new charging adapter (not the cable) and I was very happy because I thought everything will be smooth and like before but guess what? No improvement. It's still taking long! I just measured it for 30 mins exactly, it went from 70 to 83%, i.e 13%, where it should be 24% as stated in this thread,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33585646&postcount=31
Now I am really angry. I will try with another Note 2 USB cable first, if that fails, there is something wrong with the device, I guess?

I really don't think it's your device or your battery for that matter. I have a question as well (sorry to hijack...). When you were charging it for 30 mins, were you using it? Was the screen off or the phone totally turned off? I noticed one night that I had an email notification and the phone did not charge because the notification LED was on all night while I slept and it was plugged into my 1A Samsung charger from my original Note. I have yet to check if the charging disconnects itself if the LED comes on. I don't even know if the phone charges at all if the screen is on either. Can anyone confirm? I guess I'll try it out tonight! The battery last forever I got to admit, perhaps most of the time I'm slow charging it at 1A max with the original Note's charger? I guess it does the battery some good
Thanks a bunch!
No pal I am not using the device while charging (because I am testing and measuring the times, that's why I restrain myself from touching it), and it's on, not off.
Anyway, yesterday I went to a friend's home and found he has a Samsung ACE and has same USB port like Note's and I was carrying the charging adapter, so I took that Ace's cable and plugged in to my Note's adapter and let it charge for an hour, and I was amazed and happy to see that it increased 38% in 60 mins. Well this tells me that the USB cable of my Note 2 is gone to heaven.
And oh, if you charge and use the device at the same time it will charge pretty fast even then too. I can confirm this when I first got the device, always was using it and charging, and I was surprised to even then how fast it was charging.
I (and many other users) have similar problems with Galaxy S3. I've made an app that shows the actual charging current: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2076078
I'm not sure if it works on the Note 2, but it is worth a try.
Please check if your device is charging at the optimal charging current (I think it is 2000mA for the Note 2 charger, instead of 1000mA as pointed in the SGS3 thread).
I just bought the LG G3 ATT version and I absolutely love the phone! However the charging time on this device is horrendous compared to my Note II which has a bigger battery. Please help!

Are you using the stock charger and cable? If not, what is the Amperage of the charger you're using? Are you charging from the wall or your computer?
I get a charge from 10% to 100% in around an hour in the UK.

Anywhere from 3-5 hours. Also if i'm using the device while charging it almost feels like its staying on the same level, something that I haven't experienced with other android devices.

I feel the same about using the phone and charging when playing games. No idea how long it takes to charge it tho, doing it while i sleep anyway.
I'm going to go wireless charging but sometimes I'll turn my phone off and give it quick charge since it charges faster. I know some people don't like to do that though.
the first thing I would check is that the usb cable is plugged all the way into the mains charger. When I first got mine it kept saying usb charging is slow, please plug into a mains charger, which I thought was weird as it was plugged into the mains, but on closer inspection the cable wasn't all the way into the plug, so it was thinking it was using a pc connection. plugged it all the way in and it was charging like a demon then.
Same freaking problem. It discharges 100-0 in 6 or 7 hours, with 1:30 screen on time, and recharges 0-75 in three hours. Have you managed to fix it?

That very surprising. I get full charge in about an hour from 20%.
i had my note 4 for two months already and fast charging works impeccably fine till recent week that when i went to vietnam and charged it at the hotel which tooked 6hours to charge my almost drained (30%) phone. when i came home to my country same thing.. charging takes 6 hours.
would anyone know what the problem is?
note: fast charging option is checked. never overcharged the phone. i have an app full battery & theft alarm that alarms when the phone is fully charged.
hope anyone can help me。
Have you tried using a different usb cable since it stopped working? Maybe the cable was damaged? Just a suggestion.

There is a chance your charger is broken.
Try charging on a different fast charger enabled charger and see what happens.

Here is what I would try.
un-check fast charging, reboot, re-check fast charging reboot plug in
even after replacing battery and charger. Takes 1 hour to charge 1% . this problem started few days ago:crying:any help?
Have you tried an new cable and charger, and check your charging port is clean.
Have you had any flickering on the screen, if so you might have a bad battery connection.
John.
Had the same problem, replaced the battery without success as well. Had to replace the charging port and it's been working perfectly ever since.

yh i to have replaced the battery still no success. yh most likely a faulty port.
This has just started happening to me. Sometimes it gets so bad that it dies on the charger.
I have had my T800 2 years tomorrow and the battery is fine, I use an magnetic microusb adapter so no port wear.
How long have you guy`s had your S1 before you started having problem with the battery? also do you game or use any apps that eat the battery or get the tablet hot as that is really bad for the battery.

i brought my t805 in july 2015. i hardly use it, as i use my nexus 9 which is way faster and easy to carry. i basically didn't use the tab s for a week or 2 and then when i plugged it on charge, it was taking forever to charge, so... :/
i ordered a flex cable from ebay for just £
5, it includes the usb port as well as the sd slot. Will be replacing that, hopefully it will fix the issue.

I wonder if the battery went flat while you were not using it, was it turned off or just in sleep/standby mode.
John.
haha no its not the battery as i have already replaced it with a new battery and still the same. i think it was turned off.
so how long does it take you guys to fully charge your t800/t805 from 0 to 100% while the device is powered off?
From what i have read around 5 hours for the 10.5" for a full charge when in sleep mode, maybe a 4.5 hours when powered off.
But charging speed depends on an compatible charger and quality usb cable, full charge current is 1.75 amps according to my usb power meter on my T800

hmm, because mine takes 3 hours to charge 18%. eventhough am using a note 5 fast charger and also tried it with official tab s charger too no luck.????
the usb ribon arrived yesterday, so replaced it. still no difference.:crying:
Have you tried more than one usb cable, as it make a BIG difference, like 0.5amp vs 1.7amp you can have the best charger in the world but if your cable is faulty or poor quality.
Your battery could be bad (how long have you had your tablet?), or your battery power connector could be loose/faulty(mostly 8.4" S1), or you microusb port could have become faulty.
Also if you use a third-party charger it has to talk to your tablet in an language it understand or you tablet will charge slowly, there are a number of different charger languages Samsung has a different one to Apple, or HTC that is why an Apple charger might only charge your Samsung tablet slowly.
I recommend everybody gets an "usb power meter/monitor" they only cost around $10 and it allows you to see straight away how much power you tablet is taking from you usb charger and some brands can trick you tablet into charging at full speed on an Apple charger, I bought an Belkin 2.4amp charger and it was only charging my T800 at 900ma, I changed a setting on my usb power meter and now my T800 is charging at 1750ma

Hello
After suffering slow charging, like 700 or little more ma Controlled by 3ctoolbox, Im now using a rampow nilon braided micro USB câble.
Now allways charging first at 1750 ma and fall ingénieur slowly from 80% to 100%, like a charging perfect mode must be.
The câble was baught at Amazon and work fine untill now. Verry small prize and quality.

surprisingly i tried charging it with a cheap 3rd party cable and it has charged 48% in 2 hours whilst it was powered off, so it should take just around 4 hours to charge 100%.
when compared to the other 2 official Samsung chargers which charged more like 10% in 2 hours. quite strange results

Your tab will charge at full speed approx 1.75amp from 0% to 80% and then the charge rate will get lower and lower as it get`s closer to 100%
So the first 80% charges the fastest and then last 20% takes a lot longer.
EDIT: 80% of an 7900mah battery is 6320mah So it should take approx 4hrs to charge from 0% to 80% with an 10% charge efficiency
