I don't remember having fast charge in the car? It was only with the wall charger that came with the phone.I'm quite certain fast charging is not available in the car anymore which is most likely the place you'd need it the most but I am getting fast charging using a wall plug. I think there are a few posts on another thread about the Lollipop update mentioning no 12v fast charging anymore. My guess is AT&T will issue an update to correct the issue. At least I hope they will.
It won't fast charge if you are using the phone? Why would they change that from kit Kat to lollipop? Which battery monitor widget did you mean? I see there are a few different types.

My car charger 12v adapter is QC 2. The task bar no longer says "fast charge" & the phone doesn't charge in the car anywhere near as quickly as it did w/ Kit Kat.
So as far as I know the Lollipop update caused me to lose car fast charging.

Interesting. I wonder if your car charger is not capable of the 9V charging mode, so the phone asks for 9V and the charger can't provide it, and the charger offers 12V and the phone says "nope, can't handle that" at the moment, so they both fall back to 5V standard because they can't find a mutually-agreeable higher voltage.
The fast charging in the car worked on Kit Kat so Lollipop is preventing it from working.

Agreed. I was just wondering if the root cause was because your specific QC2 car charger was only capable of 12v fast charging (and not 9v) and Lollipop took away your 12v fast charging and is instead only looking for 9v.
Does your car charger list the charging voltages available? It's usually printed on the charger somewhere.
Honestly, I didn't even realize the Note 4 could handle the 12v portion of the QC2 spec, since the charger that was shipped to be was a 5V/9V charger with no 12V support.
I'll look at the charger next time I'm in the car. I checked the manufacturer's website and they don't list those specs.

I think on another Lollipop thread several other forum members reported losing the car fast charge ability as well.
I don't see any way that a phone could know the difference between a car charger and a house charger.
Since your device is not branded Qualcomm maybe it does not actually comply with the QC2.0 standard.
