How fast does it charge?
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Free mobile app

It says the output is 5V at 1A so it charges at 1A which is as fast are qi charges currently. Keep in mind that's limited by the best of your battery and what your phones will allow on the receiver side.

Much slower than the turbo charger. I've been using Qi chargers for a couple of years now and they're always slower than a plug-in charge. That said, it is very high on my list of must have features I look for when purchasing a new phone. If I drain the battery past 80% today I'll see if I can give you a %/hr charge; this morning I was down to about 91% and it took 15 minutes to reach 100%. The efficiency isn't 100% so you aren't going to get the rated power transfer you'd get with plug-in.
I'm using the Tylt Vu but also use a couple of others, I think one in an LG and another is the Nexus 5 chargers.

That's a given, I prefer qi most of the time because I don't like cables. It depends on how fast you need the phone charged. When I goto bed I use qi, if I'm out and need a quick boost I use the Qualcomm which charger.

How fast does this thing charge?

My EVO charges really quick for occasional boosts during the day...
How fast is the note?
From 0 to 100 over 3 hrs
Sent from the Almighty Note!
Roughly about 4hrs for a complete charge for me.

How about a 15 minutes boost? does it give it a few hours of life?
I guess i'm comparing it to the HTC evo where i could plug it in for a few minutes and i get some substantial usage after.
It's a bit slow for me. 3-4 hours for a full charge sounds about right. But moderate use while plugged in to a computer it barely charges, haha...
It would be nice to have a kernel that supports rapid charging. I think Da_g mention something like that
15 minute charge isn't enough unfortunately. Samsung phones always take a while to charge I've had this "problem" with my Infuse 4G, my international Note, and now my AT&T Note. 15 minutes honestly might get you 2-3 percent in terms of battery note nearly enough for a few hours of use.
About 40% in an hour so that would be 2.5 hours for 100%. On USB it charges suuuuper slow.
I would love to see how fun it would be to charge one of those 5000mah extended batteries
Thanks for all the replies! I can't wait to get my new Note
Mine fully charges from 0 - 100% in less than 2 hours using the original samsung car dock charger. Tried a few times and always charges this quick.
takes around 3hours for me on a wall charger.
+1 on the Samsung charger. When I use all of the other micro USB chargers that I have it barely charges it. One night I put it on one of the other chargers at 1 am @ 23% and when I woke up at 6 am it was only at 77%. So I put it on the Samsung charger and it went to 100% by 7 am.

Hmmmmmm.
Last night I charged mine on my old HTC charger cuz I didn't feel like crawling behind the bed to swap them. When I woke up (after 8.5 hours of charging) I was at 99%. I suppose it could have been the stupid battery widget reporting incorrectly but my phone was down 8% in the first hour, with only 2 minutes of screen on time.
Guess tonight I'll swap chargers and see if that makes a difference.
any harm in using the Ipad charger to charge the note. i use it on my Iphone and it really speeds up the time needed to charge.
My note will be here Friday.
There may be two variables at play here - the cable, the charging source. I know with my Advantage the stock charger (with no removable cable) had an additional pin which told the Advantage to charge at a full 1 amp rate vs. the standard 500 ma available from a USB port. I think the stock Note charger is rated for 800 ma, don't have it here to verify.
Using the Note's stock cable I've seen a fairly fast recharge time both from the stock charger and my computer's USB port. Yesterday I drained down to 6%, plugged into my work computer (stock cable) for 2 hours then 1 more hour in my car and I was up to 77% after. Which included some time streaming XM via blutooth. Then plugged into the stock charger at home and was up to 100% after a few hours even though I was tethering via Wifi to 2 computers with heavy surfing.
We would need several tests to see if there is something special about the stock charger, the stock cable, or both. But compared to my Advantage it charges way faster and uses much less energy - excluding the display.

Interesting. I wonder if it's just a good low gauge (thicker, better conducting) cable, because the HTC adapters are rated 1 amp.
People who uses the charger that came with the phone must know that these chargers are really weak... They are only 1Amp... I use my blackberry playbook charger which is 1.8Amp charges the phone almost twice as fast than the regular one... Same thing with my ipad and iphone... I use my ipad charger to charge my iphone 4s and it's way faster! Use more powerful chargers! My note gets charged in 2hours top!

I'm curious to know what is the max amperage that the note can take. I know my old EVO is limited to about 950ma.
Uh...I love my Note, but it charges pretty slowly compared to my Skyrocket. It is also the first phone I have had, that can actually discharge while using it on a car charger. Especially if you are watching video or any screen intensive task.

Itian A6 Wireless Charger - Charging time

I finally made the change to a QI enabled back cover to get some wireless charging on my LG G3. I bought the Itian A6 on Amazon from the seller Docooler. I like it but I have a huge complaint and I want to know if it is normal. I understood going into it that the charging would be a bit slower but the times I've charged the LG G3 from 5%, it took 4+ hours to charge to 100%. This seems really excessive. Wired charging would usually take me about 2 hours to fully charge from 5%. Do I have a defective charger or is the super long time it takes to charge wireless really how long it's suppose to take? Please give your feedback and opinions, thanks.
Bueller? There has to be some input people can give, even if it's not from the same wireless charger.
I use PMA and not Qi because I have the AT&T model G3, but I've noticed similar results sometimes. Typically I only put it on the wireless charger while sleeping so I don't notice the charging time, but there was once where I charged while awake and noticed it took a bit longer. Make sure its in the best contact position.

Thanks for your response. My wireless charging has been getting worse. The last two nights I've charged over night, it got a good 6-8 hours and it still wasn't fully charged and the phone was pretty hot. I always place the phone smack in the middle of the charger making sure it's centered.
Does it have a magnet to center it? The PMA charger centers the phone so that you have optimal charging and I don't think I've ever noticed heat issues.

No, there is no magnet but the charger is slim enough to know you got it centered. I tried to wireless charge without having the phone on to see if there maybe was an app that was keeping it from charging faster but apparently the phone needs to be on to do wireless charging. It automatically turns on when I put it on the wireless charger. The charging has just got worse on the wireless charger. It charges fine wired. Wonder if it may be the charger or the QI replacement cover...
Maybe try a different charger. If I had Qi I could probably help more. Maybe someone with Qi will chime in.

Absolutely normal...
WIRED you are using a 1.8A charger... when you connect this same charger or a 2A to the QI pad, you get only 800mha to 1A to charge via wireless (because of loss, thats why you get the heat)
ALL QI charging pads are like that, there is no top tier, more expensive QI pad that will charge above 1A, the tech just doesnt work like that
The second generation of wireless chargers are coming and they can go way beyond that and even charge from more then a few inches....

Are you saying the 4+ hour charging time to full is normal or the 6-8 hour charging time? I read from other people that in general they noticed that charge time on the wireless charger was only a bit longer from wired which is why the 4+ hour charging time surprised me. I am thinking of exchanging the charger to see if it makes any difference.
If you check the people using wired charging, you see they take about 2 hours to charge 5% to 100%
and this is using almost 2A
so charging limited to 800mha to 1A it would take double the time (more or less e to 4 hours)
Thats the reason why i still use wire charger. I read a lot about that and many posts mentored same charging time as you did and sounds ok.
You can see that your wire charger have output 1.8A to charge and the most of wireless chargers have real output of 0.8. With this calculation, more then 2 times slower is complete normal.
I never timed my wireless charging until last night. It charged from 1% to full in under 3hrs. This is with the Duracell Powermat and not Qi. That may be the difference. Either way, I've been satisfied with the powermat.
Sent from my LG-D850 using XDA Free mobile app
Something internally probably limits all QI chargers to a certain amperage. My Tylt Vu takes about the same amount of time to go from 0 to 100. The technology is still in its infancy stage. I'd recommend using it as an overnight charger.

Looking for an app that tells Charging Speed in mA

With my Note 22 I used an app called "Galaxy Charging Current". Unfortunately it doesn't work on this phone. With the best charger & cable, the Note 2 showed 1800mA charging. I am looking for an App that would give me similar information with the V10.
Ampere seems to work with the V10:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.ampere
currently using Ampere but getting mixed results
I use GSAM Battery Monitor.
with GSam & 35‰ charged it said the charger was charging @ 196mA. If that were so, then the factory fast charger is defective.
With Ampere & 45% charged it said the charger was charging @ 930mA. If that were so, then the factory fast charger is defective.
My Note 2 charges @ 1800mA and does not know what a fast charger is.

I use Battery Monitor Widget Pro. Best I've used so far to monitor battery usage. Haven't actually used it on my V10 but this post just reminded me to install it.

quick charge 2.0 increases voltage to phone and drops the amps.
so a 5v 2.4a charger will put out around 1800mA (1.8a) on a note 2, the V10 with QC2.0 @ 930mA is prob feeding phone 9-12 volts

So fast charge capabilities are screwing around with our battery monitoring apps?
Or rather screwing our perception of speed of charge and ma draw?

So to sum up...
930 on a V10 is "the same" as 1800 on a note 2?
I also came from a note 2 and have been confused as heck trying to figure out if my v10 is charging at a decent rate.
I never have a problem with the oem charger but I was on a car trip and using an external battery pack and also tried plugging in to my car stereo but couldn't figure out how to "read" the charging apps.

Take note that the v10 turns off fast charging while screen is on. And ampere is a gesstimate, no app can give you presice. Need to use a USB Doctor sleeve for better results.
Unfortunately Ampere remeassures every time the screen turns on. I used the paid version widget.
Additional note. Fast chargers and fast charging is not the same as Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0.
A 2.4A charger will not quick charge qc 2.0 LG v10 in this case any faster than an old Iphone cube.
You need a qc (qualcomm) 2.0 compatible quick charger and decent cable. Zerolemon, aukey, tronsmart, Motorola turbo qc 2.0 chargers works great.
The LG v10 is capable of 2400-2850mA. Slightly slower then the Nexus 6, but faster than the G4.
The stock charge that comes with the v10 is qc 2.0 [email protected] or [email protected] max. Some chargers can do 12v, ZeroLemon is one.

Yes in my experience, the quality of the cable makes a difference. I'm not sure if its the actual thickness or connections. I have a 6 foot braided flat cable that doesn't always fast charge on wall charger, but I have a 3 foot flat that does in the car. When I use my better cables it works every time.. I don't know if length makes a difference.
Yes, when I was using my Samsung Note 2 and an app called Galaxy Charging Current you could see the difference in mA. Using an Anker charger and a good cable got it up to 1800mA. It is harder to find longer cables that do not produce a loss. The quality of the conductor (metal /copper) shows up here. I wish that "Galaxy Charging Current" worked on the LG V10.

Charging speed

To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the LG G6 can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
I have used the charger that came with it (since it was the only USB-C cable I had at the time) and it charged amazingly fast. I bought a Wireless charger as well which is also amazingly fast. It's my first wireless charging experience and I was told it trickle charges so it would be much slower than charging from the cable, but I barely notice a difference in speed at all. I keep checking the phone what seems like every couple of minutes if not seconds and the % has increased by a lot more than I would have imagined. I thought wireless charging to be pointless and a who-cares ordeal, but not that I have experienced it... I don't think I will go back to a device without it (not for a phone at least). I'm not sure if any health issues can be there from radiation, but I'm almost dead anyway (well... I have about 50 years to go I guess) so I don't really care, lol.
For those wondering, I went with the CHOETECH Qi Model T513 wireless charger. Input: DC5V/2A (Max) Output: 7.5W which I purchased from Amazon for only $19.95. That was 50% off at the time I purchased it, but that was only a few days ago so you might want to check on it.
Really? I feel my g6 charges way slower then my S7 edge. I still have it but I'm gonna test this tomorrow.

Went and picked up this bad boy today. LS variant. Out of the box, had 41%. Using my car charger Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0(yes 2.0) and the included USB C, it charged to 70% in the 20 minute drive back to my house. For using the old QC tech, still charged amazingly fast. I have a QC3.0 39W wall charger that got delivered this afternoon. Will wait til this baby dies and charge her up with that and will report back.
Ive noticed when using a QC 3.0 charger and cable doesnt seem like the g6 is actually charging faster. Its suppose to support QC but its not.
I'm finding this charges a lot slower than my S7 Edge as well. Using the provided cable and charger it takes about 2.5 hours to go from 5% to full which is generally fine, but there isn't a burst and then trickle. I appreciated being able to plug my phone in for a short time when it was low and top it up enough to go out and not worry about it dying. Can't really do that with this one.
I had a power brick laying around and says qualcomm 2.0 and it charge`s really fast, like 1% of battery every min. , but yes with the stock charger brick takes forever to charge.
Using a Xiaomi USB C charger (45W) which supports both UPD 2.0 and QC 3.0, my phone charged very fast.
Mine charges super fast with the supplied charger. I plugged in with 11% yesterday and hit 50% in like 25 minutes.
quick charging is convenient and all, but is there a way to revert to normal charging? I don't want to accelerate my cycles. Thanks.

Look to the charger specification, if it supports only 5v and 9v then is QC2. QC3 scales on various voltage between 5 and 12 volts.
And yes, the provided charger is QC2, probably the same Found with the G5.
Yeah I take back what I said. The supplied charger does appear to "only" be QC 3. It still seems faster then QC2 though. Maybe it's just in my head. It works for my needs though, I can get almost 50% in like 20.
Charge in airplane mode when you can. When you have no worries of anyone calling or texting. With wifi off as well you'll see a decent jump in fast charging.
purchased by phone a couple of days back and it charged from 5% to 100% in approx 1.40 mins with the stock QC 2.0. I'm damn impressed....
Let me Ask y'all something. Coming from a LG G4 and just Charging My Batteries by a OEM Battery Charger I got 2HRs More of SOT. When I charge via the USB Quick Charger I got the same 3HRs as usual. So I got 5 while charging Slower then the SO-Called Quick Charging. To my understanding Batteries are meant to Slow-Charge rather then Fast

Apperently its like 30 something Watts. Unbox Therapy found this on the charger.
27W to be exact. And on another video review, it showed 5v @ 3A and 9v @ 3A on the charger. So this thing should charge pretty quick and I assume is just using the native USB-C Fast Charge capability which is just fine.
I got confirmation from support that it is using USB-C PD for charging. No QuickCharge.
So this is all false then...

Yup, that would be a lie. Just because you have a 835, they would have to still implement QC themselves in order to leverage it.
And I believe Qualcomm loves to charge a pretty penny to flip that bit on for your device.
The device may still charge pretty quickly, but we will need some reports from those who have it in hand.
Anyone with it already have AccuBattery installed and see what the charging speed is plugged into its charger?

From a review I watched, they said that the charger is capable of Charing 5 hours of usage time in 5 minutes.
I tried my s8 charger on it, the charger quickly heated up and stopped charging the device
When using the S8 charger, it show slow charging... Sucks
Soooo... What's wrong with using the included charger?
And Samsung uses some other form of Fast Charging that's proprietary to their own devices. It isn't Qualcomm quick charge at least at the generic level. Essential just uses the USB-C 3A fast charge ability which you will have to get separate from both Samsung or QC2/3.0 stuff which is a bit of a pain, but really not surprising. Same as the Nexus/Pixel devices.
It shows Charging Slowly with my Anker PowerPort 10 charger for some reason - even though it is 60W capable and nothing else was plugged into it. I'm really hoping I don't actually have to use the bundled charger just to get it to charge quickly. That would actually be really annoying. I rarely use included chargers since I have Anker PowerPorts everywhere that I need to charge.
I plugged in an Ailey quick charge charger. It first said charging slowly then changed to charging rapidly.

That's because it will never fast charge a USB-C Fast Charge device. You need something like this since this device does not have Qualcomm quick charge.
That 60W charger doesn't really support any modern Quick Charge, it just supports the max 2.4A charging for things like Tablets and whatnot.
For those using Quick Charge to the PH-1, it is only compatible with QC 4.0 and not QC 3.0 or below. QC 4.0 is compatible with Power Delivery (PD) that PH-1 uses.

Quick charge or no quick charge, I'm pretty sure it's supposed to charge faster than 3% overnight. It still said charging slowly when I got up this morning and said 5 days until full. It had actually only gone up 3% in the past 9 hours.
My battery is at 96% so it may not be the most accurate test, and it was over 1000mah on initial plug in and then slowly went down to what's on the screen shot after about a minute.
