I can't get mine to charge my new Galaxy S5 with a cable I know works or the Samsung official cable? Anyone else?

I used this to charge multiple devices for months. Ended up getting a second one for my Dad. Now that we all switched to the Samsung Galaxy S5 it doesn't work.

It doesn´t work on my S5 either. What a bummer! One of the annoying things of having Samsung smartphones is the customers must struggle a lot if they´d need any kind of help or buy acessories. In that way Apple is zillion times ahead.

It worked with my S5 for a few months but suddenly stopped working this week. Tried both ports and different cables. Still charges the S4 and other devices; I wonder if it is something with our phones or the charger itself.

It works fine on my Samsung Galaxy S5 with a micro-usb cable (not the one that came with the phone, just a normal micro USB cable with the narrow connector, not the wide USB3 connector).

Mine won't charge anymore either. I think the product may be defective. How are you charging your device?

I have this and I believe it may have been the reason my charging port stopped working. I had to use my warranty 21 days after I got the S5 and I recall how the cable did have trouble going in on a few times.

Unplug charger, then plug it back in and try to charge it now....don't know why, but that seems to work for me....certainly no the way it should be.

I'm having the same problem. Charger works fine--phone doesn't. Need to replace one satellite phone. Probably can't get without charging base.

Had the same issue. Started charging by the micro usb port. Works fine now.

Yes, I plugged my charging cable for my Samsung Galaxy S5 into the radio and when I crank the handle, the S5 does show it is charging, although it is a bit tedious to continuously crank this for more than 3 minutes.

one of the built in cords works with my galaxy s5; when the lights stop blinking it's fully charged

Based off my experience with this product: you may have a faulty cable right out of the box. My cables only lasted about a month or so before they no longer worked, but my genuine original samsung cable still works (over one year later). // There is a possibility something else is wrong though (I.e. USB port, software etc..)

I've tried charging mine with normal microUSB because I thought I'd gotten a bad AC adapter and the normal microUSB's won't register as charging and didn't seem to raise the power at all. Luckily for me, it turned out the AC adapter just has an odd proprietary plug that needed to be pushed slightly harder to click into place the first time, so I'm able to charge, but yeah, it was a bit of a disappointment to realize that it can't charge off of the same USB stuff all my other electronics use.

I charge mine through my Samsung Galaxy S4 charger! It's a standard micro USB cable that comes with it.

I have the galaxy s3 and never had any problems charging. I have also plugged in many other devices without problems. I hope this helps.

i had to use a different charger/cord to get it to work. Only the wall plug and cord that came with my phone would work. i bought a 6 foot usb cable off amazon which would have the problem you're having, then i put the cord that came with my phone on it and it worked fine again. Same with a older wall plug that i had.

I bought 2 of these on EBay but I don't remember the seller. Both of them worked but one had a defective charging port. I bought the second one to replace the one with the defective port. I have found this to be a "flakey" arrangememt, at best, and I found that the S4 must be in charging mode for it to work at all. Hope this helps.

Mine charges fine with the standard charger issued with my phone. Everything has been so far so good and I have had mine for several months now.

I am having an issue with my G5 and cable not being recognized as USB 3.0 SS by my Asus Zenbook. If you are looking at this because you are having a similar issue this cable will not resolve it vs the Samsung provided. But yes it is the correct cable for a Galaxy S5.
