Hi everyone. I'm posting because I'm facing an issue with the week choe stadium I purchased. I saw that it was highly recommended in this forum. I'm having an issue with it where I wake up in the morning and I find that my phone isn't fully charged (around 80%). Sometimes my phone doesn't even charge at all (even though my nexus 6 says it's charging). I looked at the battery stats for last night's charging period and I found that it charges for a bit, stops, and then picks up again, and then stops at about 80℅. What could be the issue here? Is my placement wrong, or is my choe stadium defective?
Attached is a photo of what the charging period looks like:

What power adapter do you use? It supposed to work with 1.5A above power source.
I'm using the turbo charger that came with the nexus 6.

In using the Choe stadium with the turbo charger and have had no issues.
Highly recommended?? maybe by Choe spammers. They suck.

Does anyone know of a portable/emergency charger that would be suitable for use with a TC?
I've seen a few available but none of them seem to be specifically for HTC devices...
Here's a few to give you an idea of what I'm thinking of:

Nice find!
Yeah, wasn't aware that there was an official device on the way. Thanks
Frustratingly, no dimensions are specified (only the weight). Has anyone found this info anywhere?

Judging by the picture (and using the mini usb port as refernce) I'd say its about the same size as the TC.
Not really as small as I'd like, but definately pretty portable
I picked up one of these at Hong Kong airport. I had tried it briefly but thought it didn't work (that was nearly a year ago with a different phone). I tried it this morning with the TC and it works great. I had 2x2600mA NiMH batteries, and my phone was at about 80% charge. The batteries are at indeterminant charge (charged several weeks ago, so partially discharged). I plugged the first one in and took the charge to around 90%. The second battery got it up to 100 % while using the GPS and still has charge. So it looks like it would give me enough power to make calls with one battery and if I take 4 along, I am thinking it could use GPS all day from a flat phone (with some battery swapping). The phone still gained charge while using the GPS.
I imaging that all of the ones that use AA would be similar, so the one above should do the trick. The problem with the one I have is the battery can be pushed slightly and lose the connection (which is presumably why I thought it didn't work initially).
Edit Did a better test. A single 2600 mA AA battery gives about 25% charge.

I'm using the Philips rechargeable battery. It's not too big, not too heavy, it fits in my pockets and can give you up to 30 hrs of additional autonomy.
I use it frequently when riding my motorbike while using the Polaris gps. Up to 10 hours without problem, and I could still partly recharge my phone after.
Otherwhise, it can give up to two full charges, maybe 2 and a half.
Here are the specs (in french sorry).

Model is SCE4420. It's boxed with many plugs to charge other items.

I am having trouble, the charging LED never turns green for me. It was plugged in overnight. I installed an app called "Battery Monitor Widget" and left it plugged in. The highest it reaches is 3801mAh out of 3840mAh. It was at this state for 2 hours, saying 99% charged. The tech specs say this is a 4000mAh phone, is that rounded from the 3840 the app tells me? or is something terribly wrong with my battery? Anyone else experiencing this?
also, if anyone can recommend a battery monitor app, I would appreciate it. I downloaded the first one I came across that gave actual numbers instead of a bar.
it finally made it to 3840mAh and turned green. It has been plugged in since my first post. Can anyone verify that their phones battery capacity is 3840mAh?
Yes, mine is the same.
I use juice defender ultimate, set cpu and juice plotter.
Works great for me.
I just installed the free JuiceDefender app and it appears to need root to work:

Thank you both. Ever since I left it plugged in for basically two days, it has been charging and turning green in what I consider a reasonable amount of time. I still think I have an underlying problem and expect to have a shortened batter life, but I also think I will upgrade to the next 7" from HTC before it causes frustration.
frh1: your added picture made me even more excited to own the flyer.
I think you're good. These batteries have to go through some charge cycles before the calibrated correctly. Some batteries will never see 100% after a few uses. Both of my Sammy 10.1's would say they were at 100 then as soon as you unplugged them they were down to 98. I thought there was something wrong with my view because it was taking a while to charge. My first view charged very quickly. I guess I didn't notice on the first one because i was playing with it so much, but after a few full drains and then charges it started charging faster. That's one of the things I like about the view, it charges fast.
I was thinking that the S5 was charging a lot slower than my S4. I was always amazed at how fast the S4 would charge with phone on like from 1-100% in about 1.5 hours. The S5 is taking about 3 hours from say 1-100%.
After checking with GSAM Battery Monitor Pro the S4 was pulling 1900mA of its included 2 amp charger. The S5 only draws 1200mA on the same charger. I also checked the S5 with its included 2 amp charger still just pulling at 1200mA.
I did this on two (2) S5's and two (2) S4's.
I guess some one with a volt meter setup could test this more scientifically but from a real world stand point I notice the difference. Not a hugh deal really as the S5 battery last a lot longer so I guess it balances out if your not charging as many times.
A benefit to this that I've noticed is the phone does not get no where near as hot as the S4 does during heavy use while charging.
Just wondering if kernel apps like Faux or others would be able to increase the draw with like fast charge for those times when running say GPS and music and need to charge?
S4

S5

Battery went completely dead today all the way to shutdown. Plugged it in and restarted it @ 12:40pm. I didn't get back to it in an exact hour (see pic). It was charged to 74% in around 1hr 15min.
With that said. Plus another WIN for the S5 and Samsung. That quick charge technology that was rumored must be a reality if it's charging this fast with little more than a 1/3 less current draw than the S4 (1200mA vs 1900mA).

1200ma
Did you find a solution to how to charge the S5 with 1800ma while on?
My G3 is at 45% and it says it's gonna take over 7hrs for it to fully charge.
Before anyone ask, yes..i am using the OEM charger and cable that cane with the phone.
I'm on my second G3 and really don't feel like exchanging this one for another one...

Are you using your phone while it's charging? Is it at a high brightness?
When my G3 is charging and I'm using it (redditing, XDA, Clash of Clans, etc.), my charge time is pretty insane as well.

THIS plus if your outlet is weak or not getting enough power it will take forever. I had a surge protector and mine was plugged into the last slot and was taking forever to charge until I checked it with a meter and found the last slot was weak and under powered. Tossed the whole thing out and have had no issues at all.

Yeah i was using it checking email and forums, but still didnt think it would take this long to charge. And in reality it didn't. I mean it took a little long but nowhere near 7hrs to charge. Maybe like 1 1/2 - 2 1/2 hrs to charge...and thats with me using it. So i guess that would be normal in all actuality. The time estimate that the phone displays is just off its mark.

Hmm...this also interesting because i do have the charger plugged into a power strip. When i charge it today, i will plug it directly into a wall socket and see if that makes a difference as well.

Does anyone know if these numbers are correct? They look really low to me. After coming from the nexus 6 and it's quick charge capability. I've noticed this is taking waaaay longer. Where are these numbers supposed to be? Of course this is with the lg V10 quick charger that came with it.
I'm grateful for any assistance anyone has. Thank you

I'm pretty sure quick charge variates the closer you get to 100%.
Its odd...I feel the same way and I came from nexus 6 lol
Hell, I feel plugging it to my laptop is faster...might just be my charger.
Ditto -- seems very slow.
280 seems crazy low. 740 isn't too bad although it's much lower than the charger can output. Mine isn't much higher now, either...
940. For some reason the screenshot won't attach.

Mine charges insanely fast 14% to full in just over an hour last night. My proximity sensor on the other hand is driving me freaking batty. (off topic sorry).
I got my LG V10 yesterday and it ran very warm and would not charge quickly at all, even with the fast charger and screen very dimmed. It was actually losing charge even when connected to a decent charging source, and barely held its ground with the LG fast charger. I poked around and one thing consistently was reported that I had not checked - LG's email app and Exchange privileges as a big source of battery drain. I use the Gmail app, so I had not even put my email address into the LG Email app (and I don't use Exchange). On a lark, I put my Gmail address into the LG email app. It was like night and day. Once the LG app had downloaded the emails, everything cooled way down and charge rate went way up. My battery app showed that the temp of the battery fell from the low 40's down to 35 - 36 C, so I'm guessing the CPU activity had also fallen off dramatically. The battery app also showed charging current going from 100 to up over 900 to 1100. I was also able to consistently raise my screen brightness back up quite a bit.
