Need some help. New to Android. Need car charger but have read Scosche and other chargers dont work with Android unless you use a "charging only cable" have read if you use cable that comes with phone will not charge and or will only have trickle charge. so....what car chargers do you S4 users have that charges fast?
 
Dont know where people "hear" this stuff at but you can use just about any micro usb charger and of course if the USB to Micro USB wire included didn't work it wouldn't work with the wall wart. However dont settle for 500 ma because it can take forever to charge and can actually fall behind the power usage of the device if you're using nav and other features so get at least a one amp charger. Dont pay extra at the phone store, the el cheapo at amazon will work fine.
