Wall Charger with detachable Cord Rapid charge

---

Here's a link to a Wall charger I found for the galaxy note on Ebay that does appear to have the pins shorted already and comes with a detachable cable for 6 bucks if anyone is interested. I ordered this for a friend and it does show AC Charging when it is plugged in.

Ordered 2 more of these for myself will run the terminal test on them once I get them to confirm for sure rapid charge.

Good stuff, thanks. A quick check on Amazon, however, shows that you might be able to get em quicker and cheaper.

Anyone know if this is the same thing? http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Charge...4847389&sr=8-1

Just checked, the part numbers match up, though one of them transposed an 0 for an O ETA0U20JBE vs ETAOU20JBE

I found the charger in the OP is good but not is rapid as it could be

I have never rooted my AT&T Note phone

I found the only way to determine how fast the phone is charging is by using a terminal program and:

cat /sys/devices/platform/sec-battery/power_supply/battery/batt_current_adc

Which will show ma *10 from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1519084

The charger & cable combination above (OP) maxes out under 900 ma

The stock charger & CABLE that came with my phone will do 1000.7 ma
If I use the cable from the charger in OP with the stock charger, it maxes out to under 900 ma

After using several cables & carger combinations, I found the battery status can say AC (fast charging) even though its only charging at 400 ma In the 400 ma case, it was the cable which I threw out, (I was using the stock charger) even though it worked as a data & charging cable..... I don't want to grab it and use it accidently and have my phone take forever to charge.

The lesson I learned is always verify your charging setup.... Especially for charging while in your car when using GPS, LTE data, and play music. For the car, I use a Griffen iPad (I have no i* products) carger with:

and a cable that I verified would charge my phone at 1000.7 ma.

That is an excellent find! I searched for something like that on amazon in the past and didn't find anything could be I'm a prime account too and it just didn't show up due to that. Thank You!

is there a way to get this into a script of some sort? I know nothing of linux or android... but tried to save a .sh file with these two lines:

PHP Code:

su
cat /sys/devices/platform/sec-battery/power_supply/battery/batt_current_adc 


i get an error saying that device batt is not found... it looks like the statement from the script got cut. i copy/pasted it from the post directly into notepad and saved as a .sh - could that be why?

Try

sudo cat /sys/devices/platform/sec-battery/power_supply/battery/batt_current_adc

Enter pssswd / grant perm from su app
