QUOTE(brotan @ Jan 27 2013, 08:24 AM) As per requested Ori charger + cable from my HK Unit I read in the forum must use the ave value right? Btw I didn't photo chop it + I don't hear any hissing sound p.s. my phone not rooted. Will this affect the reading? [attachmentid=3283124] My rooted N2 reading ( 2pin charger) 1698/1700/1700

QUOTE(joytest @ Jan 27 2013, 08:56 AM) Final test might be trying a few cable types with the same 2A charger to see the difference. You would be surprised. I tried a few cables I had, one of them even showed 100 on the same 2A charger.... wtf... you can throw that cable away. Let me root my phone first and see how Btw any good link for easiest and safest rooting method?

Won't work on DLL7 and above. However, you should try the charging comparison BEFORE you root using the different cables i suggested. If you can get different readings from different quality cables, it should mean that the GCC app can work even if you're not rooted. I have a Yoobao 11k mAh powerbank. Using its cable, I could only get 1100 whereas I got 1400 with my Nokia cable.

I know someone who let his kid do as she wanted and broke 3 of his phones. I thought to myself "what a sorry ass idiot" oh btw, logging in from the salon?

My young niece has her own iPad and there was one she was angry and threw it on the carpet. After that got nicely from my sister and confiscated it for a week. She learnt her lesson well and dare not do it anymore.  Yes, finished 2 episodes of TVB drama...

@brotan
Dont worry, you dont need to root to get different readings.
Dual usb with 2.1A? Cool find....
Btw, do you bring in different length cables?

QUOTE(joytest @ Jan 27 2013, 06:19 AM) Haha, now we have GCC to check incoming amps. Good idea syNzoR. brotan Can you install Galaxy Charging Current from xda thread here and provide a readout report? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2112811The readout will be helpful to determine the charging current received by the Note2. This will be beneficial to all of us. Wow 6am... no wonder you are the most active person in this thread... no need to sleep? Hahaha

I tried a few cables I had, one of them even showed 100 on the same 2A charger.... wtf... you can throw that cable away. I eventually found out that the original USB cable charges around 400 - 460 on USB port, but whenever I hooked up with Pisen USB stick, the rate had changed to 1698 for current_now despite both current_avg and current_max is at 600. Apart from that, I also found that USB cable from Yoobao 11200 mAH also charges at 1698 on its 2A port while 1000 on its 1A port, kinda fast compared to standard USB charging.
