I got an amazon branded 2A single usb charger about 6 months ago for another phone. It charges my Note2 quick. Sorry no links...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] rockky:
What about this please? Need input.

i.Sound Portable Charger

Has 16,000 mah

Input: 12V 1A

Output: ''5V 2.1A on each connector 2.5 A together''

I charge a number of things on here...

A friend has me a bit confused saying this could damage the charging mechanisms of the phone cause it has too much voltage?

Any input please?

Thanks

One Car Charger that works

Hello,

Whether a charger works or not depends on what DCP (Direct Charge Port) modes it supports.

I suspect the GN2 uses Shorted DCP, where the USB data lines (D+ and D-) are shorted. Apple chargers sense 2.4Vdc on these lines to allow the charger to ramp to full current. Asus and some Sammy TABs use 1.2Vdc to enable full current. This is to distinguish real USB ports from chargers, and to "encourage" you to use the manufacturer's provided charger.

It would be nice if someone can confirm what DCP mode the GN2 actually uses. Not that the charger manufacturer's publish what modes they support.... However, the charger IC manufacturer's (TI, Maxim) are beginning to get good at DCP autodetection which is going to make it much easier for us consumers.

As far as finding chargers that work,

I bought a 2.1A dual car charger at Walmart, model "i-xt" that works well with the GN2 and is listed as "on AC" when connected. Implying full current.

Cheers,

-Plaz

You don't have to worry about your phone being damaged. Phones have built-in protection for over-voltage and over current. 5Vdc is proper voltage for USB devices anyway (Output 5V, as listed in the specs). The catch is if the phone allows full current charging. That depends on the DCP mode of the charger. I'm not positive what mode the GN2 truly supports. If you already have the charger, you can determine if full current is being used by checking under settings -> battery while connected to the charger. If you see the "On AC" verbiage, the phone is in full current mode. If not, the charger is limiting to 500ma and acts like a standard USB port. You phone will still charge, but it will take longer.

Clear as mud?

Cheers,

I bought this:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005AWO8V0/

It's 2A and works great. I like that the cord is attached, so no losing a USB cable or anything. Also has an integrated USB for other devices.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] farfromovin:
So I understand the shorting D+/D- internally or via charging cable to enable "AC" charging. I understand that Apple and apparently Sammy/Asus use voltage on those lines to signal the requirement for full current. Here's my question: if my Note2 is connected to brand X charger and it says AC charging in the settings under battery, does that mean I am theoretically pulling the max current of that brand X charger. This of course assumes the battery is empty enough, temperatures of the battery and charger are low enough, etc...

What I'm getting at is does having a shorted charger or cable with an android on an iCharger give us full iPower? Gawd that sounds horrible doesn't it! :silly: Or, if you're getting "AC" from the iCharger is it really only 1.1A or 1.6A (just tossing those numbers out there) vice the 2.1A it would be charging an iPad at?

I got one of these and it works fine. You only get 2 amps out of one of the ports.

I also use older 1 amp chargers and they work fine as well. I think the Note will only accept 1.2 amps anyways.

My old nexus one wall charger doesn't work with the note 2.

But the Note 2 charger does work on the Nexus One ;)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] frankyou11:
I can't go back to that 3.7" screen :laugh:

I've been reading that a 1a charger should still work with the Note 2 but in this case it just flashes "charging" for a sec and goes right back to discharging. Is this normal?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jow350:
I have been using my old micro USB Blackberry and Motorola chargers for the last 2 weeks without issues, both are rated at 700mA and charge the Note II rather quickly. Actually unpacked the charger that came with the phone after I read this thread, but it doesn't appear to charge the phone any faster. Have cheapy 1000mA and 2000mA generic USB chargers in different cars, both charge the phone just fine.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ChodTheWacko:
I had this issue for a while. Charging is very temperamental with low amperage chargers. Ymmv.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Plazmid:
Full Power

When you have your GN2 connected to your brand-x charger and the phone indicates it is on AC, this means that the phone is charging at a level above standard USB power, which is .5 amps @ 5vDC. I'm not sure what the GN2 threshold is to show it is on AC, but I'm guessing it is at least at a level above 1.5 amps 5vDC. You are probably getting everything your phone can take when the AC indication is on.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jujuburi:
Guys please suggest me a branded charger which will have same spec as Note II's stock charger. I am done with this small USB cable and every time I have to detach the cable from my PC, I want a separate charger. I heard that the iPad 3 charger is same, is that right? What will be my options?

I live in India, so kindly don't post Amazon links.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] myculito:
So just to be clear:

So long as I purchase a 2.1A wall charger, I can use any of the Micro USB cables laying around my house and be able to charge the Note II just as efficiently as the OEM wall charger it came with?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] farfromovin:
I'm gonna say no. If it's specifically for an iPad you may only see USB charging levels unless you short 2 pins in the charger or in the cable. That depends on the specific charger itself though. Charger manufacturers are getting better at making truly universal AC high current devices now. I know, it's still a bit tricky.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] myculito:
That's not what I meant.

What I mean is, if I purchase this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0073FE1F0/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=AKBC2HTGGFZVH

or this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005CG2ATQ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

that I can use any of my Micro USB cables to charge the Note 2 at full AC charge (and not the slower USB charging speed)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Urbanisms:
I recommend the Mediabridge High Output Dual USB Car Charger For iPad and iPhone.

(I can't yet put links in my reply due to my status.)

Even though it says for iPad and iPhone it will work with most devices that accept USB charging.

I have this car charger and it has worked wonders for my GS3 and GN2. I am currently using the Perseus Kernel (alpha 30), and the USB charging rate has been set to 900mA by the developer.

For about a 90 minute drive home from work, I can recharge about 35%-40%. If I am using GPS with full brightness, it would cut that to about half. I don't know if you are running the default Kernel, but before installing Perseus, I could still gain a 25%-30% charge.

The size of the charger has been snug in several vehicles i have driven. (sedan, suv, large suv, pickup truck, minivan) What I mean is that it was a great fit where the charger never slipped out of the socket from vibration, etc.

I purchased the charger you mentioned: PowerGen Dual USB Port 2A 10w previous to the Mediabridge charger. The Powergen charger would slip out of the port constantly. Even when I would use the Powergen charger in a vertical configuration, it would still manage to come loose from the cigarette lighter/port/thingy.

Also, if you are looking at wall chargers, there was a very detailed comparison of numerous wall chargers, of all brands and off brands. I don't have the link and if I did, I wouldn't be able to post it anyway. :D But, the verdict was that the HP Touchpad charger had the highest rating overall.

Good luck!

Hi

I've wondered - is there a phone with 3.5mm Line-In jack?

the purpose of this of course is to do a real-time recording.

to plug-in a guitar, and out to external speaker and with an app on phone that can make some effects (eg Guitar Rig)

The cellphone cpu nowadays are very strong so I guess there won't be any high latency... (possibly Creative chip onboard?)

think about it...it'll be AWESOME!

First of all, it is not enough to be just rooted for you if you want flash a new custom rom!

You must be on a safe kernel FIRST if you want avoid BRICK

I assume that you are on stock ICS. So if you are ona stock ics, be careful!

The easiest way for you to flash a custom rom is (assuming that you are on ics):

−Go to settings> about phone > and check which rom you have (for ex. IMM76D.XXLRT - that means that you have xxlrt rom, or xxlrq or something else, if you are not sure put a screenshot, we will help you)

−Then go to : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1901191 And download a safe kernel depending on which rom you are. Place it on internal SD card.

− Go to stock recovery (VolUp+Home+Power, wait till samsung gt-n7000 logo appear, then realase all three buttons)

−when you are in recovery - "update zip from sd card" , choose your safe PhilZ kernel from internal SD card, then flash it. Now you are on a safe kernel, but dont do any actions (like flashing, wiping etc.) Yust reboot your device.

−Now in app drawer you will see a new icon called SuperSU. That means you are rooted.

- If you want to be 100% sure that you are on a new safe kernel, try reboot in recovery (volup+home+pwr) now you will se a new CWM6 recovery (it is different from stock, grey background color, if you not seeing it then somethings wrong, dont perform any actions in stock recovery, and ask for further help).

−Now you are ready for flashing your new rom (read OP in rom thread, and folow instructions for flashing written from devs)

If you are on stock GB, then steps are little different (we will discusing it later, now going in bed, it is little late in my time zone :)

If you do not understand exactly what you're doing, do not flash anything, better to read the sticky threads first, and the Q & A section of the forum, there are a lot of similar questions and answers

Check this- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=30810194

And see if your kernel is safe to wipe and flash, I guess Franco kernel below v4 is not.

Flash some safe kernel and you will be good to flash any custom rom.

Edit- yes, you need to change kernel, check post #3 of this thread to change kernel- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=30574729

Once on safe kernel you can boot in cwmr and flash any rom after full wipe.

This mod will increase all your volumes .. your in-call volume, speaker in-call volume, ringtone + notifications + system volumes, music volume.

This mod is great because I really needed to boost all my volumes, with this you can easily hear the note even when you are not in the room.

If you feel the full level of volume is too high after installing this mod then reduce the level of that type of volume to your comfortable level.

As for your question, if you use the in call boost provided in JB it will increase it even more but, with this mod you will not need that boost anymore..

just set your comfortable levels once of all your volume types and you will love this mod ...
