**** The Official Note 4 thread ****

The charger plug says 2A so I'm assuming that's a fast one. Also the usb cable is longer than the one that came with the s4 mini (which had a 1A charger)

It should look like this if the fast charger.


This came from Samsung on day of release:

Note on output is says 9.0 V and 5.0 V.

In that case, no. It didn't come with that charger. I didn't realise that fast was 9V! This one just came with the 5V, 2A charger.

Looking through this thread, appears some have got the adaptive charger. Should it have come with one? If so, what are people doing about it?

It's no biggie to me, just seems like some come with it and some don't, it may explain the cheaper price from these sites for the phone. Fast charging only wears out the battery quicker but it's nice to have and a shame they don't have a charger with a switch on it to let you choose fast or regular charging mode (someone may correct me and maybe there is an option on the phone menus to choose between the fast charge and regular charge).

Agreed. Even if mine came with a fast charger, I don't think I'd use that option. I've never been a fan or advocate of fast charging as, like you say, it reduces the battery's life. 5v, 2A will charge the battery pretty fast anyway!
 
I went for this one Samsung Memory 64GB Pro MicroSDHC UHS-I Grade 1 Class 10 Memory Card very nice fast card.
I paid £39 back in december.

Another vote for the Samsung Pro MicroSD card, I have had one since October and no issues with my Note 4

Thanks. I was tempted by the price of the Kingston and Samsung EVO but have gone for one of these now. Can only find glowing reviews of them on the interweb. Should be with me tomorrow :)

Pretty sure there is a setting in the phone to turn off fast charging.
 
Just installed German Lollipop onto my N4. So far so good and I'm rooted well enough. Just charging up the device now because there is a lot of bloat needing to be removed and I need to get Xposed onto there too.
 
Already rolling back due to secure storage issues and no Xposed!

I have considered it myself!

Really missing Xposed for things like per-app DPI. I'm either forced to stick with the gigantic standard setting which feels liek it's designed to be used from 10 feet away, or do a system wide change and have the camera and certain other apps off centre and have failing buttons.

:(

I just dropped back to non-rooted Lollipop and will see how things go from here on. Can't really notice a performance increase vs what I had on KitKat yet.
