I have been on a "quest" to find a good charger for a long time...

I have tried multiple cables and chargers and monitoring the charge using BatteryMonitor app (Widget showing the Amperage). I tried charging when the battery is less than 50% and more than 50%.

This is what I found out:

I. Samsung Note OEM charger:

- With Samsung Note OEM cable: 1100mA

- WITHOUT OEM cable: 400-500mA

II. HTC Thunderbolt OEM charger:

- With Samsung Note OEM cable: 1100mA

- WITHOUT OEM cable: 400-500mA

III. No-name brand dock (bought from Amazon):

- WITHOUT OEM cable: 400-500mA (cannot use Samsung OEM cable)

The Note takes LESS than 500mA when the battery is above 80%, indicating that the Note is "slowing down" the charge.

I just ordered the HP Touchpad charger that was on sale a couple days ago, so hopefully this is as good as the Samsung Note OEM charger.

My biggest problem are:

- Car charger: this is where my Note, connected to the Samsung OEM car dock, have GPS ON, Navigation running, BT ON and brightness at 75%. I have tried Samsung OEM car charger, Satechi charger, Motorola charger and NONE can charge the Note while the above is running.

- Micro USB cable: as seen above, the cable itself make a difference. I am yet to find a long USB cable replacement that can still give 1100mA while connected tot he Samsung OEM charger.

If anyone can give me insight on the 2 problems above, feel free to share.

RE: point e) in DKelly's post, yeah the samsung charger is small, but so is the Apple iPhone unit. both output up to 1A. they are also quality chargers.

the knockoff ones from Dealextreme/ebay etc... are not of equal quality. the Apple unit costs over $30 and for good reason. there are high grade components inside and tons of R&D in the design. cut open a generic clone, its all garbage stuff, poor solder joints etc.

size is not necessarily an indicator of quality or output.

that said $5 is awesome for a high quality charger AND cable. By the way, the North american prongs can be unlocked and switched for other ones like for the UK etc. its a world charger. make sure its twisted on good or it wont charge. it will click solidly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] pTeronaut:
1- I drove 160 miles to Chicago yesterday with the same setup, except on 100% brightness (but with Google Navigation dimming the screen between instructions), and found my battery around 50% when I got there. The car that I was driving has an built-in inverter, next time, I plan on using that coupled with the stock AC adapter and see how that goes.

2- If the Touchpad's cable (which is long) can supply the required 2000mA to a Touchpad, then I'm sure that it would get the Note the same (whether it can handle it is another question).

I found 4 apps with the same name. Can you tell us which one exactly you have? Also I've read that the data lines are shorted which allows faster charging with OEM chargers.

thanks, bought one to try.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SteveSlimer:
Bought Two. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ediesel18:
Got mine today. 2 for 5. The chargers have an expensive rubbery feel to them. I think at ten each there still great.

They also come with a cable tie that's pretty neat also. Fast shipping too. There a must. To bad the note restricts amperage..........
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mazdamiata210:
Couldn't have said it better myself. It's a steal at that price and well worth it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] KosanRio:
Ordered 2 of them and they came in yesterday, they're a tad bigger than I hoped but the charger and itself and the cable seem pretty decent quality, much better than something you'd pick up at Big Lots for $4.99 that's for sure. Also shipping isn't free now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ediesel18:
fast

Comfirmed. Faster charging. I have a screen shot of +1100 mah charging.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
Not to burst your bubble this early in the morning, but you may want to reread what people are getting with their OEM charger and other quality charger. I'd still call this a "fast charger" but certainly not getting 2amps charging rate from it. 1100 is what people get all the time. A quick check shows that I'm getting 1048 right now at my desk with a USB extender on the OEM cable plugged into the tiny OEM wall nub. If you simply meant it is fast charging like OEM, then disregard.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] taob:
It depends on the widget and how it calculates the charging current. For instance, BMW reported a peak of 1221 mA last night using the HP charger, but /sys/class/power_supply/battery/batt_current_adc never went much about 1000 mA. BMW does try to figure out net current, however, which is at best an estimate. I've seen it report over 2000 mA using the stock charger, probably because of a miscalculation somewhere (e.g., it thought I had the Mugen 5400 mAh battery installed instead of the stock 2500 mAh one).

Interestingly, now that kernel source is available from Samsung, I do see mention of 1100 mAh and 1200 mAh charge currents. It's in the driver for the SummitMicro SMB328A charging circuit. From the vendor datasheet, 1.2 A does seem to be the maximum it is designed to handle. However, I do not know what effect those #defines have, only that they are present. Have a look in ./drivers/power/smb328a_charger.c in the kernel source tree:

/* fast charging current defines */
#define FAST_500mA 500
#define FAST_600mA 600
#define FAST_700mA 700
#define FAST_800mA 800
#define FAST_900mA 900
#define FAST_1000mA 1000
#define FAST_1100mA 1100
#define FAST_1200mA 1200

/* input current limit defines */
#define ICL_275mA 275
#define ICL_450mA 450
#define ICL_600mA 600
#define ICL_700mA 700
#define ICL_800mA 800
#define ICL_900mA 900
#define ICL_1000mA 1000
#define ICL_1100mA 1100
#define ICL_1200mA 1200

Info on the SMB328A: http://www.summitmicro.com/prod_select/summary/SMB328A/SMB328A.htm

---------- Post added at 12:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 PM ----------

Also interesting, a bit further down in smb328a_charger.c:

#if defined (CONFIG_USA_MODEL_SGH_I717)
set_data = 0xB7; /* fast 1A */
#else
set_data = 0x97; /* fast 900mA */
#endif

So those of us with the SGH-I717 Note get 1A charging, but N7000 Note users only get 900 mA?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
Good lord Taob, with knowledge and info like this how do you only have 34 "thanks"?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] taob:
Probably because A) I don't bother distributing my own ROM that is 99% the same as everyone else's, and B) I don't beg people to thank me. :cyclops: :D :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] johnus:
I received mine today, it seems to be charging at about 200mAh faster than my stock charger. And with a longer cable! Nice. :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Honeybadger:
I am definitely going to get another one when they offer free shipping again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dkelley:
+1 I've noticed that actual developers (career devs like us) have different attitudes from ROM "developers" who literally do beg for thanks as though that number maters. I'm generalizing of course.

Looks like HP has stopped selling this, too bad great charger.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] deliriousbb:
Yup, looks like its gone from HP's site. I guess this is the official divorce of HP and their Touchpad. I guess they are going all in with the Win8 Slate version.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crutzulee:
Just snagged another Touchpad with touchstone off of Kijijj for my daughter ( I "fixed" her viewsonic G-tab once too often :o ). Touchstone means that the stock HP charger is now a spare for my phone :highfive:.

Recently Google has released Android 4.1 JB with Google Now feature. Can anyone port it to our device? I have been doing some searching through the 4rum and I can only find GNow for Aosp Roms. Thankz :)
[HTC One X] kevz65:
Not yet. Someone has ported the apk and the voice part doesn't work yet due to jb dependencies. Needs to be recompiled for ics so maybe a few weeks at the least.

I've just tried to install it on my HOX (faux kernel, ARHD7.1), using install procedure and APK from

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1749045

It installed just fine. Even opens (though no swipe from bottom to activate it (as expected) from widget.

But doesn't really work since it can't hear me - Immediately fails when pressing the mic button.

When going to config -> voice, it crashes.

But the real bummer is that it can't find the network! Well that's unexpected, since Android finds it just fine... Perhaps it uses a different 'channel', only available on JB? But then it wouldn't work on ICS AOSP...

update

Ok... It does find it (the network) just fine when searching using text input.

It only doesn't show the Google Now <badges/boards/panels>. Upon opening it gives a toast about the network. Upon clicking 'update', nothing happens.

So it's only a search replacement (with no voice)

But I want to use it for the Google Now features... I installed 4.1 on my GN and it's amazing :D I want that on my main HOX! :D

from the op: Flash it from odin using the same instructions as my root thread

You may need the USB Drivers available here. (Support & Downloads for SGH-I717)

Once the USB Drivers are installed, power off the phone, then hold volume down and power it on, you'll get a screen asking you to hit vol up to continue, do so. This puts the phone in download mode.

Stick the provided pda.tar in the PDA box of Odin3 1.85, flash away!

See my quote...:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Fyrebaugh:
Gnote Link?

Unfortunately, I do not see a "Gnote link" in your signature? I just updated to ICS last night, through Samsung Kies software, to Android 4.0.4 and I am seeing sluggish response, I tried to call someone and it took over a minute before the call actually started. The phone randomly "resets" and by that I mean that it will disconnect from whatever I am doing, go to the lock screen and I can see the status icons at the top repopulating, taking up to 30 seconds before the WiFi will reconnect. If I am connected to the PC at this point it loses connection and then is redetected. I lose connection in Kies as well during these times and my bluetooth headset loses connection at the same time. This did not happen before the ICS update last night.

Which is why I am thinking about going back to Gingerbread. I have the Samsung Galaxy Note SGH-I717 model as well.

I have rebooted the phone with the power off feature, as well as removing the battery and letting the system start up from scratch with no change in the behavoir.

----- Edit------ 3:14PM CST

After checking a few things on the phone, I booted into fastmode and wiped the cache memory and the sluggishness seems to have gone away. I will do more testing and place calls to confirm.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
You likely have a bad rom image ...

Kies and OTA upgrades often corrupt data and cause device issues..

Bigjoe has changed his signature since his replies were posted in July..

Simply go into the "note super everything thread"...located at the top of the general note section. Then see the first post..

There you will find the return to stock options to correct your device ..g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Elpidio:
I had the same problems, force close, etc. I did a FACTORY RESET after upgrading via KIES and all good after.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Fyrebaugh:
Thank You!

I did see the other information after the fact, and I do appreciate the information.

Yes my phone is consistently resetting still after wiping the cache. I am most likely going to change ROM's tonight, haven't decided if I am going to go back to the original or to a different ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
Based on the fact that a reset corrected nothing for you...i'm still leaning toward the bad image....g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Fyrebaugh:
I'm looking through the forums here, but I don't see one that compares the different roms available, I will probably flash back to the GB rom tonight but kinda looking for an ICS or JB update that will work on the phone. Is there a thread that deals primarily with the different roms and their features?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
The galaxy note super everything thread....located at the top of the general section....

You will find links to pretty much every rom available.......but to find info on each rom, you will have to open those links and read the OP...

We simply have so many, that a detailed features list for every rom is simply not possible, and would double the size of our note section.....g

Hi all,

I want to buy the neo v for my father (never used a smartphone) I want to know if the camera quality is so bad that he could not be satisfied with it or not.

I have limited choice when it to smartphone and the neo v is the only decent choice in my coutry (pricewise).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] vinothroshan:
Wrong question on a Neo forum :p .. but the camera is just fine and 5 MP is something you can live with with good quality. compression rate has always been our problems but you get good images nevertheless. I would say go for it, he would just be happy. :highfive:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] aminit:
Thanks for your answer, I was reading review of how ppl are dissatisfied with the camera and got scared a little (and the 5mp neov camera clearly underperform from what I have seen compared to some similar camera).

and for the question I dont think the general QA is better place for my quesion.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
He means that on this forum, whe probably have a biased opinion ;)

I'd recommend a dual core phone like the Xperia U, or Galaxy S advance. The neo is not future proof, with apps become heavier in near feature, the phone will be too slow to use.

Yep, graphics are pretty amazing. Looks heaps better than on non-tegra 3 devices and iOS.

Gameplay seems fun as well. Controls are a little dodgy sometimes, but I guess you just need to get used to it.

... and you need to buy guns if you want to play......

then, you pay for the game and then pay for guns, other wise there is no way.... :confused:

Yeah, there is the option of in-app purchases, but you can buy weapons which you unlock while u progress with earned ingame money. In-App purchases are not needed, it just makes it easier for you to advance.

This is a great game and a must buy for all HOX owners. For 75p/99c it's a no brainer. On this new baseband/firmware it run's silky smooth and the phone doesn't heat up a silly amount either. Great purchase.
[HTC One X] JuanArg:
I noticed that too, the device doesn't heat up with this game, it's frigging beautiful to play it.
[HTC One X] Try4Ce:
Well, it does heat up, but not as excessive as with alot other games. I reached 41 degrees tops, whereas other games may reach 45-46 even, like Dark Meadow.

It still is very playable, means: No throttling due to much heat, no unpleasant feel to the touch while gaming
[HTC One X] hamdir:
guys something is driving crazy here

why does the game keep resetting progress? am i missing something
[HTC One X] Nit3m4re:
I must admit, I am not really a gamer on phones as much as I wish I was. Every app I buy generally bores me after 10 minutes these days so it says something when I keep thinking "I fancy playing Dead Trigger" because I have done it a lot since buying it. I've even bought the guns.. I don't even really like Zombie's on COD whereas all my mates love it, so this really is doing it for me, especially the graphics, one word - stunning.

Boy oh boy am I glad I got the One X now over the SIII and now that the Nexus 7 tablet has Tegra 3 as well I see no reason why it won't get even more love from developers over the next year.

My only issue is sometimes the screen spazzes out and spins me round.. is anyone else having that? I've ran touch test apps and they don't seem to be acting strange from multi touch so I can only assume it is the game?

Get it regardless :)
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yea this is issue is only with shadowgun and this game, strange

but why does the progress reset after few hours i dont get it
[HTC One X] Nit3m4re:
Mine hasn't reset at all. It must be a bug or something, guess maybe ask Madfinger?
[HTC One X] LakshayX:
No resets here either...

N guys one more interesting thing..I am on ViperX 1.0 n using core control to turn my 2 cores off..today while playing dead trigger I forgot to switch all the 4 cores on but still the game was running buttery smooth..I realised it after playing 15 mins but I couldn't feel any difference...

Now that's impressive :D:thumbup:
[HTC One X] tdtylert:
No rests for me but I do get spun around for some reason first day I played the game didn't have this issue.
