I am currently using a battery charger to charge my sg3 because the charging port broke. Can i charge this battery using a normal battery charger?

That is a good question. Do you mean a plug into the wall type of charger that is used for charging cell phone batteries? If your answer is yes, then as long as the battery fits in the charger properly, there is now reason that it shouldn't work.

I probably wouldn't if it were mine. Some electronics and batteries may be damaged by a power source that provides too much current (Your charger needs .3 amps and this supply puts out 1 amp). The device I am using with my power supply is a cheapy unit that is inexpensive, so no harm if it gets fried. I am also using my power supply to take the place of batteries, not for charging batteries like you're wanting to do. My recommendation is to pass on this as it might cause damage. Good luck :-)

not sure exactly what you're asking but i believe you want to know if you can charge the battery when it is outside of the phone, yes you can charge this battery separately. this is a good useful charger to have as the Samsung battery runs down quickly so its good to have a fully charged battery ready to go just in case your going out and you don't have 3 hours to wait for the battery to be fully charged.

I would assume it would. USB charging is fairly standard. But sometimes a device gets a little proprietary, but that's usually not the case. Make sure the mAh of the battery is larger than the mAh of the Samsung one you're charging so you get a full charge.

do I need to buy a different charger? or can I use my cannon battery charger?

That's what it does. The charging port on my gs3 is broken so I have two batteries and rotate them after they're charged. This charger works on 110 or 12 volt and works extremely well.

It has the standard micro usb port. Any phone charger will work. I don't remember if it came with one or not but if you don't have an extra phone charger you can purchase an ac/dc adapter with usb and mini usb charger on here for a minimal fee. The battery can't be replaced but there should be no reason. You should be able to recharge.

If you can take the battery out of the cell phone it'll fit in this charger. It has a little "drawer" that presses the battery to the charging pins. I use it for camera batteries and for charging the extra battery for my Samsung SIII. Does great. The drawer spins around to accommodate different sized batteries. I once had a very small camera battery, but I just put a pencil behind it on the drawer and it held it in place with no problems. And it has a USB charging slot.

I am only using a lipo charger so I'm not sure a regular charger will work for you

Yes. It works just like your wired charger (except it has no wires) with a few key differences: 1. Your phone limits the current received in this way (the limit is device manufacturer specific - my SG S4 will only take 700mA via its wireless charge port) 2. The QI wireless charging standard limits the max current to 1000mA. 3. The phone will charge fully (within the limits above), turning "off" the wireless charging port when done. The thing is, then the phone almost immediately starts to deplete the battery, and the charging resumes (speaking ONLY from experience with my device). The final net effect is your phone enters a "floating battery" state: the charger is powering your device, while your battery sits idle at 100%. I have left my S4 on the charging pad overnight many times, the same way i have left it in the wired charger overnight many times... same result either way - phone works just like it did previously, just the way i know it to work.

If it works you can ( Though manufacturer does not recommend it ). The charger does not work most of the time. It keeps showing every battery "BAD". However, there are much cheaper chargers available on AMAZON to charge NI-CAD and NI-MIH batteries.

I found the same problem, my battery never seemed to charge. When I put in the original Samsung battery, the charging pins just fell in and the it became useless. I returned it to Amazon and bought another style of charger altogether

I use the stock charger that came with my GS3 but you can actually use a tablet charger to get it charged even faster. they charge faster because of the increased amperage required by tablets. Also turn it off to charge and run it all the way done to zero the first two or three times you use it. This will "stretch" the battery life out and help it to hold charges longer. Enjoy

I found that with my Samsung Galaxy S3 that when the charging port is damaged, I was unable to completely charge the phone. I also purchased a new OEM replacement battery to see if that would help and it did not. If the charging port is damaged/failing this wireless charging unit may only serve to charge your phone until it completely gives out. Of course, as long as you get a phone with the same charging port as on the portable unit (i.e. Samsung or iPhone) you can still use the portable charger on whatever phone you end up getting. It "should" buy some time.

I wouldn't take the risk. Each of these wireless charger adapters are highly specified for phones. This model is designed to perfectly fit within the SG4. Its not the platform you rest your phone on that you are buying, it is the wireless adapter that hooks inside the phone with the battery. This wireless device then charges the battery using a separately sold charging platform.So i would say that i won't work for any phone other than the SG4. Perhaps search for the same device that is compatible with your mobile phone.

C. A., I use the same charger that came with my lap-tap. Replacing the battery shouldn't have any bearing on the ineffectiveness of your charge cord.

Hi Cecilia, I doubt it very seriously. I have a GS III, and after charging all night, I received about a 17% Charge. I understand this charger is not made for the Smartphones. Hope that helps.
