I haven't seen anything officially confirm did Samsung ever say whether this supported Qualcomm quick charge 3.0 or 4.0, or USB Power Delivery via USB-C?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] thegreatone3:
Here's a screen shot of the charger for the S8 from the PhoneArena unboxing. Looks like 2.0 again. http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/58e2baf65e2a4/S8%20fast%20charger.JPG
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] jrapps:
That would be VERY disappointing seeing as this is the worlds first phone with both Snapdragon 835 and USB-C. Only supporting 2.0 is such a step backwards. At least give us Power Delivery!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] DjSkreem:
Exynos does not support Qualcoms quick charge features... as such they out their own adaptive fast charging which does not seem to be changing any time soon.

Dash charge on the OnePlus 3 and the VOOC charge on OPPO phones which dash charge is based on is really awesome i was hoping after the battery thing that Samsung would have gone with that as it does keep my one plus Cool mostly if it get warm thats plenty.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ewokuk:
What I need to find out is what is required for this exynos adaptive fast charging to work (and how much faster is it than using any standard 2.4a charger). the qualcomm quickcharge afaik requires specific chargers to make it work, I assume the samsung one also requires specific chargers to make it work but all i ever see are qualcomm ones advertised (and this is in europe where we only get exynos samsungs and they conveniently never mention in all this adverising that the quickcharge wont work on european samsungs!). Obviously i can probably buy some samsung charger but I'd rather not pay silly prices for their accessories after paying a silly price for the phone already :P
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] DjSkreem:
Samsung's Adaptive Fast Charging is essentially QC2.0 ... as i have an official quick charge 2.0 charger that works with the S6 and s7 etc ....

what Samsung needs to do is update AFC to support QC 3.0 or 4.0 voltages or come up with another solution all together

i would rather they go the route if Dash charge or Motorola's solution but in wake of the battery incident (note 7) i would see why they would have held back on advancing quick charge.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] netnerd:
since qualcomm 835 supports quick charge 4.0 which let you charge 5 minutes to get 5 hours of talk time.

maybe someone can hack it and enable qc4.0 with custom rom
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] FluxionFluff:
It's definitely QC2.0. I asked the guy working in the Samsung Experience area and he said QC2.0. I'm surprised that it's QC2.0, as I would think the newer SoCs are at least QC3.0 compatible.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] andyshannon:
Qualcomm 835 is the first chip that supports the new Quick Charge 4.0 standards, its shocking that samsung isn't utilizing that being that they are the first phone with the 835 chip. Maybe they are just playing it conservative when it comes to batteries and chargers until quick charge 4.0 is verified as safe, they can't take another charger/battery disaster.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] afh3:
If the QC 2 revision is maintained, then there go the battery lifespan improvements, among other features, that QC 4 offers.

Genuinely hoping this is not the case.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] FluxionFluff:
Ah, okay. I wasn't aware about the new chipset having QC4.0, so thanks for the info. :) I was only aware of QC3.0 since I remember seeing chargers being sold that were QC3.0 compatible. It would honestly make sense for them to be a lil more conservative with the battery this year, since it's like you said, they can't afford another major debacle.

On the bright side, because of what happened, maybe this will help push other manufacturers to do more rigorous testing on their own batteries for future devices as well, since something like this could happen to ANY company. Samsung survived this ordeal as they're a juggernaut in the Android space and in general. If this happened to a smaller company, it would be much harder to recover.

Yep. And even if it was QC3.0, unless I'm mistaken (someone PLEASE correct me, if this isn't the case), it's backwards compatible with 2.0. Like, the phone would only change to the maximum amps that it was designed for.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] johnwayne27:
If the chip supports it, then a future firmware update could enable it after them testing and then retesting
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] andyshannon:
YEs but their charging wall worts they shipped to everyone wouldnt work for QC 4.0 so everyone would need to get a new wall wort to take advantage of it. I dont see it happening. The Snapdragon 820 chip in the Galaxy S7 supports QC 3.0 but they never enabled it, it still only charges at QC 2.0 speeds.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] FluxionFluff:
Yep. Even if was QC3.0 or QC4.0, unless I'm mistaken, it's backwards compatible. Whatever device you plop on top, even if it can't support the faster charging speeds that 3.0 and 4.0 have, it'll just simple max out to whatever the maximum input it can take.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] BozQ:
Would you happen to know if this was the US Snapdragon version or the international Exynos variant?

---------- Post added at 19:56 ---------- Previous post was at 19:54 ----------

I got the brochure for the Galaxy S8/S8+ from a Samsung store here in Singapore.

It says here that it supports "Ultra Fast Charging". I'm not sure what that means since I have no access to the actual charger itself or if it supports a charging with higher wattage.

I don't expect it to though, especially after what happened with the Note 7. Faster charging is probably not one of Samsung's priorities

I'll post a picture later today.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] BozQ:
Sorry I'm a little late. This is a brochure from Singapore. Shows there "Ultra Fast Charging". First time I've seen it from Samsung.

View attachment 4107072
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] andyshannon:
Interesting, and in singapore do you expect to get the Exynos version or the Snapdragon version? that is different wording then their standard "adaptive fast charging" term they have been using, maybe it means something different than the regular QC 2.0 they have been using?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] BozQ:
Singapore definitely gets the Exynos version.

What got my curiosity is "Ultra Fast Charging". Previous phones only had "Fast Charging" or "Adaptive Fast Charging".
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] netnerd:
maybe they're talking about USB power delivery.

"USB Power Delivery is a charging technology. It uses USB-C cables and connectors to deliver higher levels of power to your devices."

http://www.belkin.com/us/Resource-Center/power-delivery/
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] BozQ:
If I recall correctly, the Snapdragon Note 7 did not charge with QC3.0 too. I don't expect that to change with the S8 here.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] xeonmac:
I think there was ref to usb-c Power delivery on one of the accessories (the power bank maybe).

In any event I'm expecting Samsung to use usb-c pd for fastest charge but with a fall back to adaptive / qc 2.0 for backwards compatibility. So you'll need to buy a pd charger to get fastest speeds.

I have my 60w pixel and 29w macbook charger so will test as soon as i have the phone
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] TAZ427:
Updating the FW to support QC 4.0 (or 3.0 for that matter) wouldn't necessarily (and likely would not) require one to replace their existing wall warts. It simply means they need to be backwards compatible. If I'm not mistaken the existing Samsung Fast Chargers are simply a subset of the QC 2.0 (limited in voltage level compared to the full spec.)

It simply would mean that they remain charging at their existing fast charging speeds. I use a QC2.0 charger in the car and battery pack, and my Samsung Fast Charger in my Home Theater room (a cheap 2.0A charger in the bedroom when it's sitting on it overnight.)

I normally don't charge it at work and get some charge on the 15min commute home. Given the battery is bigger on the S8 than my S6, I'd like for it to get a bit more boost up on the way home instead of a bit less (percentage wise) which seems to likely be the case.

So I don't see a down side to them adding the support.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] CorruptedSanity:

---------- Post added at 17:22 ---------- Previous post was at 17:18 ----------

I have a couple of friends who got their hands on the S8+, here in Singapore.

With the Exynos chipset, we get the 15W(9V/1.67A) charger.

The Xiaomi Mi6 is another phone to feature the Snapdragon 835, but it supplied with a 18W(9V/2A) QC3.0 charger in the box.

I'm not 100% sure if it's actually compatible with QC4, but it's impossible to test now when there's no commercially available QC4 charger in the market.

Hell, I still don't know what's the maximum Watts QC4 is actually capable of.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Termynat0r:
Galaxy S8 does accept USB Power Delivery. Testet with my MacBook charger and it says "Quickcharging". I also tested my QC3.0 charger with the same result.

Forgot to say it's the exynos version
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] BozQ:
I charged my Note 7 with a QC3.0 wall charger before, and it also shows up as Fast Charging.

So far, I think the S8 is limited to charge at 15W max. No more than that.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] CorruptedSanity:
You wish it was limited to 15 watts.

It actually charges at 5 watts while you use it.

I know because I have a watt meter. 2 watt meters in fact.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Termynat0r:
That's brutal. They really throttle the charging when you pick it up?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] BozQ:
That is true.

When your screen is on, it's limited to 5W. 15W only when screen is off.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] CorruptedSanity:
Screen on: 5v * 1A = 5 watts

Screen off: 9v * 1.6= 15 watts

Forget about quick charging while using the device.

Do the question is, how does my device say 'quick charging' screen im charging while the screen is on.

5 watts is not quick charge as per industry standards.

How did you figure that out?

Did you use a watt meter as well?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ElBeaner:
I can confirm this as well on my Tmobile handset

I have this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MT8MC3N

Using an Aukey car charger that has both QC 3.0 capable of 9v/2A and a USB C port capable of 5v/3A

When I plugged in to QC 3.0 I got what everyone else got 5v/1.67A screen off and 5v/1A screen on

When I plugged into the USB C port I got 5v/1.8A steady (I didn't notice a difference in the on/off charging but I'll double check tonight).

Also side note, the USB C port did not trigger the "Fast Charging" dialog on the phone and said it was Cable Charging and the charge time said it was on average 10 min slower than the QC 2.0

FYI I tested the LG G6 as well (when I still had it) and it only charged at 5v/1.67A screen off as well max even though it is a QC 3.0 handset(using a QC 3.0 AC charger)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] BozQ:
Yep. I have a cheap watt meter.

Screen on, it's charging at 5V/1A.

Screen off and it's 9V/1.7A

After returning my Note 7 during the recall, I had the LG V20, and the same thing happened. Except, when screen off, it charges at 9V/1.8A

Marginally faster.

Currently using Galaxy S7 and it's also limited to 15W, even with a QC3.0 18W charger.

https://us.community.samsung.com/t5...nd-Answers/S8-charging-very-slowly/td-p/92451
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ewokuk:
Charging being much slower when screen is on is hardly new, my 3 year old S5 does that. I suspect it is to stop it overheating if you are playing games etc as the heat from the cpu plus the heat from the charging might overheat it (i might be wrong but I think that is why and I cant think of any other valid reason).
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] beardedfool:
That's the one, thanks

---------- Post added at 02:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 PM ----------

I sadly don't have a physical in line charger.

Is anyone more familiar with Ampere than I am? It registers a max charging reached (1060mA in my case, throughout the whole charge cycle). Does anyone know if this will still register the max current with the screen turned off?

What should we be expecting with the supplied charger?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] CorruptedSanity:
How come other devices quick charge while device is on?

It appears that damaging are not confident about their devices - maybe another note 7 fiasco?

I think I'll keep my kids away from my charging s8+
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] beardedfool:
EDIT: From the Ampere FAQ:

10. Why does the measurement start again after the phone has been switched off?

If you turn off your phone or leave the app (start or switch to other app), then Ampere goes to sleep and the measurement also stops.

If you turn on your phone or start Ampere again then the measurement starts from the beginning and you need to wait the 10 seconds until enough measured values are collected to show you a stable value.

Fortunately you can force the measurement while your phone is sleeping by simply using:

the widget

or the notification.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Asher22:
so sad

so what are u suggestion I need car charge. should i buy 2.0 Qc

or something else?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] beardedfool:
Personally I'd go for quickcharge 3 for future compatability. 4.0 if you can find any, as they're backwards compatible.

No expert but I've always had good results from Anker gear. I can't post links but the "Quick Charge 3.0 Anker 42W 2-Port USB Car Charger PowerDrive+ 2 with Quick Charge 3.0" is in the UK

I'm not sure whether this is something that could be turned on by Samsung, or a dev (I've seen conflicting answers) at a later date so at least it's there if they do, or for your next piece of tech.

My personal read on this is they've been very cautious after the note problems. A shame.

I was thinking of getting a tab s3 but am finding it hard to see what they've implemented there as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Asher22:
yes but if the phone cant capable handling QC 3.0 what good does it take?

isnt it better getting a charger that suit to the phone perfectelly?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] CorruptedSanity:
No

Because QC3 is not much more expensive than qc2

Plus, you can use the qc3 with other devices you have or get in the future

Plus Samsung may redeem themselves from this flaw through an OTA firmware update.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] BozQ:
Sounds like this is a widespread problem.

Last time I had an issue charging my V20, it was a buggy Facebook app that drained the battery faster than it was charging.

But to take 2 hours or more to fully charge a phone powered down is not normal.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] magarto:
So, can I charge S8 with a QC3 without any risk for the battery or the device itself?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] CorruptedSanity:
Yes, why not.

Chargers regulate the amount of voltage the device needs.

You can use QC3 chargers with an s5 even.

[General Questions and Answers] jo01:
ok so i came across a company which i have spoken with on the phone and they said they can monitor any android phone without the phone being rooted all you have to do is click unknown sources go to the address bar and put in the address they give you and tick a few things after you can watch everything on the phone

they said its their own software and requires no rooting and only takes about 20 secs to do

they said nothing gets installed on the phone and it could be checked by anyone and nothing would be found because nothing is installed on the phone and all it does is open a connection on the phone

also said doesnt need wifi or mobile data to send date back to online panel

anyone heard of this before

Hi Guys

I'm trying to create my own update.zip just as a test for android kitchen.

I have the block devices

SYSTEM -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 and

BOOT -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p5

which I have dumped to system.img and boot.img using dd if/of and pulled with adb to my machine

I've then run android kitchen and regenerated the update.zip file without customizing anything, so essentially just putting back what I took off the device.

When I update in CWM I get an error in the zip file,no other data or info than that, has anyone else had success with android kitchen?

I have tried with and without signing the zip.

TIA
