Mine is the AT&T version but it takes around 2 hours to fully charge.

 

should take just a couple of hours.

Today I played Pandora for more than two hours, took a phone call, checked emails...when I looked at the battery level I did a double-take--it was still at 93%.

 

From 13% @ 3:20 ...
... to 100% @ 5:39 - via the 2A "white" charger ...

 

You said the supplied "cord". You are also using the supplied AC adapter right? Because if you plug it into an iPhone adapter (1 amp) or a computer (0.5 amp), it would take a lot longer. I never really measured my home charging rate, but I think it is around 2.5 to 3 hours for a full charge with the supplied 2 amp AC adapter.

 

Mine only takes 1.5 hrs to fully charge from 15%

 

Hour from 10% with the charger it came with
For freakin ever in the pc...

 

Have you timed charging with the phone off -at least the screen off (which is what I think most replies are referring to)?

6 hours may be ok if your phone is very busy.

6+ hours is way long in my books...But yah try closing all apps & clear ram..Then see..

What is your battery life like..? Mine drains quick if Im goofin around with it lots...Wont even last a full day.. And thats clearing ram & running apps about once a hour..

 

Hi again

Yes, sounds like a charger problem - 2.5 hrs from 15% to full is normally what it takes (phone live but doing nothing)

Roger

 

Yeah mine takes about 2-3 hours to charge from 20% ... but if you only use the usb cable connected to your computer then you will be waiting for what seems like days

It takes ages on usb charging. Advice wwise people says that if you leave the battery to go below 15% and charge to full using the power cable and plug then your battery lasts longer and is more healthier.

Hope that helps.

 

I dunno if you are happy with the phones battery life, I wouldn't change anything lol, you can try a dock charger straight from Samsung.
