Quick charge compatible car chargers

Looks like the Note 4 comes with a 2A charger. I imagine this is all we would need in a car charger to support the quick charging?

Nope. The charger has some type of 9 volt mode to facilitate the quick charge, apparently.

You'd need a special Samsung charger. The one that comes with the Note 4 has dual modes. It will charge at 9V 1.67A up to 50%~ and then switch over to the regular 5V 2A.

So, has anyone tried the ones not listed by Samsung or Qualcomm? Amazon has both Anker and Verizon for about $10 or $12 that are 2 or 2.1 amp. I know they probably don't do what the officially compatible ones do but they'd be better than the old Sprint thing I have been using for 5 years, right? It's probably 1 amp or less. I need a new charger but not necessarily fully-compatible until they get cheap like this stuff I am seeing.

If you want the fast charging in your car you need to buy one that is Quick Charge 2.0 capable.

I tried 10W car charger from Samsung and it charged from about 60 % 1% every minute up to 75 % while testing it. But it isn´t really fast charging technology or?

Where did you get this information re 50%?
When mine passes 50% it continues to quick charge according to the battery stats I have obtained on my device.
I imported a number of the Incipio car chargers to the UK. They are excellent but not cheap!

What amp charger does the Note 4 have?

Is it 2a?
I pre-ordered it and wish to have backup wall/car chargers ready to go for next week.
Tnx

It's a 2A Quickcharge 1.0 unit. Quickcharge boosts the voltage (to ~9v from 5v) when the phone is less than 50%, so you can't get just ANY 2 amp charger and expect it to work as quickly.
If you care (or are willing to wait) Quickcharge 2.0 wall plugs should ship in ~2 months. That boosts the input to 15 volts (IIRC) and will supposedly charge from 0% to 100% in about 45 minutes.

yeah I guess I can wait. I can always keep an old 1a plug by the bed for long overnight charges.
Does samsung sell oem chargers at release date?

9V 1.67A and 5V 2A is what it says on the charger
9V 1.67A is the rapid charging part

it's a dual voltage charger. 5v @ 2.0A and 9v @ 1.67A

For some unknown reason, I have a 2.1 amp car charger and cheap 1 amp ac charger. My HTC One M7 charge slow but the Note 4 charge much faster using the same charging device. I dont know what it is, but I like it!

So the charger on Samsung's website is not the same one that came with the Note 4?

I think it's the Fast Charging 2.0 hardware in the Note 4?

Not sure it has anything to do with the Fast Charging hardware. The Fast Charging works with the provided charger, which is a dual voltage one. I used my iPhone's/iPad's car charger with my Note 4 and didn't notice a speed-up in charging time.
On a tangential note: I can't find anyone who sells the Note's fast charger separately yet and I needed another one for use with the Note 4 at the office. So I used the Asus charger that came with my original 3G Nexus 7 (which remains forgotten on a shelf). It works pretty well. I noticed that the Asus charger charged all my handsets (HTC One M8, Nexus 5, Z2, Oppo Find 7) pretty reliably -- the M8 and Nexus 5 seemed to charge faster compared with their stock chargers.
Anyone who's held the Asus charger knows it's a little bit bulkier and a few ounces weightier than the usual chargers that come with smartphones these days so there may be a hardware component to it. Whatever it is, it's probably the best standalone charger I've had the cables connect via a USB port so you can use it with your iPhone too.
If you can find at a garage sale or some random tech shop, you should pick one up. Works great with everything.

Onite 5V 3A Universal quick wall charger for Note 4

If you have a Nexus 6, Moto X, Galaxy Note 4, or any other Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 compliant phone or tablet, you need a high output “Super Charger” like this one to get the full charging speed that those devices are capable of. On my new Nexus 6, this charger took me from 30% to 92% in 30 minutes of charging!
Pros:
+ Fast and powerful.
+ It runs silently.
+ Good quality build, including a nice quality cable and plug.
+ Quick Charge 2.0 compatible.
Cons:
- Bulkier and heavier than most chargers.
- The LED light is much brighter than it needs to be.
- The prongs don’t collapse, so they are at risk of getting bent in your laptop case or bag.
This Onite 3.0A is well made and very powerful. I strongly recommend you get this or another 3A charger like this if you have a Quick Charge 2.0 compatible phone or tablet. I received mine for free, to review, but am very happy with it.

Am I missing something. I'm not using the "quick charger" that came with the Note 4, but shouldn't chargers ALWAYS run silently?

Thats not a quick charge 2.0 charger, the quick charge chargers use 9v's to charge instead of 5v's

Spammer. He doesn't even know the technology enough to be a reviewer.

note 4 charger（quick charger） is 9v,1.67A instead of 5V
note 4 quick charger is 9v, 1.67A. Though 5V 2.0A is also OK, while no quick.
Considering 5V 3A, maybe it is faster than 2A. But the IC will prevent from higher current.

I actually ordered and tested this charger. It seems as fast as my other 2 Amp chargers. All of the reviews of this charger on Amazon are from other people who've been given samples from the seller. Don't waste your money on this charger.

I'd never buy anything from Onite. Spam threads from them, like this one, seem to pop up quite often.

[Q] Qi Charging Pad that has auto shuts off

Hello xda,
I am looking for a charging pad that auto shuts off when my Note 4 is full. It is hard to find those kinds of wireless chargers. I am using a Qi-Infinity charging receiver as it is the only one I found that retains NFC functionality. But first, a story.
I went through 2 charging receivers because both does not retain NFC functionality. I ended up with the Qi-Infinity as my third and final charging receiver.
I have a RAVPower Charging Pad (RP-WCN7) which seems to continually charge my Note 4 even when full.
So, for the interesting part.
I bought another receiver from amazon that says it will stop charging when the phone is fully charged.
Sure enough, it didn't do that for my Note 4. But interestingly, it stopped charging when I tested it out with a Nexus 4.
Am I missing something with wireless charging technology? Is there a protocol that the qi standard uses to send out charge status? If someone could suggest a wireless charger that shuts off automatically, that would be great!
Thanks

Hi, most wireless charges have built in energy saver that automatically go to idle mode once your phone charges up to 100%. Maybe you've got some problem with your charger. You may go to the CHOETECH wireless chargers. I'm using their Stadium Qi Wireless Charger (3 coils) that I had months ago, but I just saw a new wireless charger (3 coils, lighting sensor) that worth a better shot for $20. Hope it helps.

+1 for the CHOETECH Stadium. I have two of them, and a FoneSalesMan SlimPWRCard in my Note 4. Phone stops charging when it's at 100% - and no sounds so it's good for using at night. Thanks for the link to the new charger, looks good, but the review says 1 coil?

Hi, thank you! You are correct, it's a single coil charger.
I found they're talking about a Fast Charger one. But I'm not sure whether a Fast wireless charger works with our Galaxy Note 4.

Question Why does the wireless charging suck so bad on this Device?

I am on the second Snapdragon ATT device and wireless charging is the worst I had in years. I dont know if its a software issue that can be fixed or a hardware issue. Both devices exhibit the same issue slow wireless charging or no charging at all just gets hot. I dont get it brand new phone thinking about going to last years S21 ULTRA if they give me the trade in credit. I have a note 20 ultra and it charges wirelessly just fine on any Qi charger. So disappointed right now.

I got this one. 15 watt wireless it's a 25 watt super fast charger so if you need a quicker charge you can always connect the phone directly without the pad. Both work great! Don't need that 45 watt charger this is perfect for wireless and wired.

Well I guess so if you having problems. Mine is the U.S. 512 gb Black version.
15 watt wireless and 25 watt wired.

Kept mine overnight with a 9W wireless charger and went from 2% to 21% over 8 hours...

Are you charging with the case on or off? I have been using my old Pixel wall charger and the OG Pixel stand. Plugged in my S22U chares quickly. If I use the Pixel stand it only charges with the case removed.

It could be the phone case, but, its not constant, I mean a day or two will charge full battery in 4 hrs aprox, like it should be, some other days 20% in 8 hours or so.. and its the same phone case

Mine charges Wirelessly in an hour. Snap Dragon 512gb Unlocked. Case is OtterBox Defender Pro and Charger is this one. If you do buy this one make sure you buy this exact model and not the one listed for $39.99 because that one only comes with a cable. The $59.99 one comes with cable and a 25 watt super fast charger. Will charge wirelessly at 15 watts or wired at 25 watts.

Sigh. I just double checked my preorder and this is what I have coming. Just like the review complaints, when I placed my order it had a picture of an adapter next to the charger so I logically assumed it was included. Now I see that they have 'updated' the product description to state that it is not included and I believe that was retroactively added because of all the negative reviews about this omission.
If I use one of the older 25 watt adapters that came with my Note 20 ultra, will it still work? I don't need it to fast charge. If regular charging takes a little over 2 hours from 0-100 with the phone plugged into the 25 watt adapter to a wall outlet- how much more longer do you think it will take to charge my yet to be shipped t-mobile S22 Ultra with this wireless charger?
