Anyone get the same after the android 5.1 update that the tylt vu stopped the trickle charging on the nexus 6?
It use to stop at 100% but now it doesnt seem to stop.

Just noticed the exact same thing. I used to wake up with 100% charge but after 5.1 update, yesterday, I today woke up to 70% which means I will have to charge at work.
Did you report it to Tylt?
No it seems to be fine now after i rebooted.
I have this knockoff Tylt charger, it stops @ 100% then kicks back on around 96%. No noise or anything and LED is very subtle that it doesnt annoy me. I highly recommend this. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00S7IBDGW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I didn't reboot or do anything, last night it charged fine, very strange. I will keep an eye on it going forward.
Working fine here

For some reason my 3D's battery never achieves 100% charge. I leave it charging using the HTC charger included and I never get more than 98% charge after 12 hours.
Anyone else have this problem??

Mine does, but it takes a while. Normally it charges up pretty fast up to like 95. Then it slows down and once it gets to 99, it stays there for atleast 10 mins and finally goes to 100. One thing I did notice though is when it gets to 100, even if its on the charger it will start falling back to 99 and 98.
Mine has never reached 100%, even if I unplug it when the light turns green and plug it back in it will just stay at 99%.
I've woken up to 97 or 98, it has never gone above that.
I believe HTC has some sort of smart charger system on here. It will charge quickly to ~ 95, then slow down until it hits 100. Then it will quit charging at all until it drops back down to ~95 or so and repeat the process. Supposedly, it will increase battery life by not overcharging it.

3vo. That is all that needs be said.
The Evo 3D always chargers too 100% what you are seeing is that once the device hits 100% it stops charging and waits till the battery drops to 90% or so before it starts charging again, so what does that mean you're catching the battery after it has stop charging and is recharging again

He is right....on the OG EVO its would display 100 while it was dropping but the 3vo shows the actual percentage
Once the led turns green unplug restart and plug back in. Should now show the led red again and finish charging. After once it should be fine.

I am using an aftermarket stand alone battery charger. When I took it off the charger this morning it only shows at 91%. Does anybody have any idea why that would be the case? I have used this same kind of a setup with my Evo and it was always at 100% when I pulled the battery off the charger. I was even using extended batteries and never had a problem!

Probably some kind of safeguard chip built into the battery that does this even on aftermarket wall chargers. I have never seen this before and every aftermarket charger I have had has charged the batteries to 100% and they stayed there, but maybe HTC got hip to the aftermarket chargers and implemented the battery mod to work on them too. Just a guess and there is no proven fact to this statement.
Run it down, then charge it up
My 3D wouldn't charge to 100% until I ran it until it shut down due to low battery and charged it until the green light like 3 times. Once I hit that magical 3rd time, it showed 100%.
at first it was only orange light , but after unplugging then plugging back in I get green light.
you can get a 100% charger like others have said, but for sure the charging software makes it tricky

Thanks man. I thought I was going crazy, b/c I wake up every morning to about 96% charge after about 8hrs on the charger. Totally makes sense now. (pun intended )
Every wall hub charger I get from ebay has helped charge all my HTC and Nexus S phones better. I always get 100%, and they stay there not draining to 90% in under 5 mins like the wall plug does.
I abhor the wall plug and have avoided it like the plague..not only that, but micro USB breaks very easily and is not a sturdy charging port.
I see them break on every modern model phone today. It's just a horrible unsturdy design. Wish we'd go back to mini usb.

That is the problem. Every one that I have ever used also charged and kept them at 100%. This battery did not. It came off the charger after a full day of being fully charged and it was at 91%
I have seen mine go to 100% once. They must have done something new here with either how it charges, or how it computes the percentage remaining, since this is the first HTC phone I have had (I've had them since the Palm Treos) that doesn't go from 100% to 90% in the first 10 mins of use.
Perhaps HTC has implemented an SBC-like charging system on the E3D

I think it might be something else. The battery does not show 100% even off of the stand alone charger!
im trying to calibrate my battery on my maxx. the lockscreen says charged but the battery percentage in my taskbar is stuck at 99%. ive seen it reach 100% last night but i haven't been able to get it to do that tonight. even at 99% on a charger i get no charging animation.
ive heard rumors this phone has issues like this or should i be worried? whats the proper way to calibrate it and get it too a 100% charge?
use it for a while, like get it under 90% then try again, but for actually attempting to "calibrate" run it damn near dead then charge it back up.

It's probably something in the charger, the ecomoto chargers have a sorta "kill switch" that will stop charging the battery once its reached capacity to prevent over charging. I first noticed it when I was using the charger to charge my Samsung Galaxy S wifi 4.0 player and like 5-10 minutes after it registered a full charge (turned off) it was like it wasn't plugged up (i hit the power button on my player which on its charger always caused the screen to light up showing how far charged it is, but on our ecomoto it was like it wasn't plugged to a charger anymore).

An explanation and some evidence would be nice. Its hard to believe a claim without proof especially with the way you formatted the OP. You asked if anyone tried the charger then two posts later you claim it screwed your battery up. I'm looking forward to hearing about the issue because if its a phone issue that's different that a charger causing an issue.

Got the charger yesterday put my phone on it last night before bed. This morning wake up it is only at 85%. That's the first thing and I have seen some reviews about this one and others doing the same thing. My battery life I was getting about 16 to 18hr a day of battery life. Basically when I get home from work I am about 60 to 50 % everyday. I have been flashing roms and dealing with battery life and stuff for years. Today I did not even make it home before it was dead. Now I downloaded a battery recalibration app and I am going to try that to see if that gets my battery back the way it was. It Sucks because I was so excited to get this charger. I don't know what the deal is. I emailed the seller on eBay waiting to hear back from them. Proof? I can't screen shot my battery use cause I have charged and took it off and back on today so many times. I will tomorrow and see what happens. Guess I will just have to order a different one.
From the photographs, that charger looks identical to the Itian A6 (it's even called "A6").
I have two of the Itians and they both work perfectly (my only complaint is that they will only charge the Nexus 6 in Portrait, not in Landscape).

Mine charged in both no problems with that. Just will not charge pass 85% and my battery drains Super fast now. I took my phone off the charger this morning at 5 it is 6:57 now and my battery is at 80% usually it would be at 97%. I have about 20min of on screen time now.
Usually my battery would say 1 day and something left of battery till dead after using this charger one time now it's this

Its possible but the battery had a built in safety so it won't overheat and cause damage. I have used a qi charger every night since I bought my Nexus 6 in November and I've had 0 issues. I use a TYLT VU and or LG WCD-100 and still get excellent battery life. The only thing that I could think of is if the battery massively overheated for a long period it could result in reduced capacity but even then it's not instantaneous. A battery fixer app is worthless and won't help fix any issues with it so I wouldn't bother with one. It could be more than one thing contributing to what you are claiming and using the charger could just be a coincidence.
I'm not saying it's not possible however l am saying it's likely that there's more than one contributing factor. I would use the phone and run a battery monitoring app (check the battery life OP in the general section for more details) and see if there is anything causing it.

Yes both of them charge to 100% just fine. I own 4 quick charge 2.0 chargers and 2 qi ones and they all charge my phone to 100%. I have a dozen or so older chargers that also work but I've never had any issues with my qi chargers. Once it gets down to 97-98% it starts charging again but I always wake up with it at 100%.

I restored to a back up I had and it seems to be back on track with my normal battery life. When I get home I might play with it a little and watch it when I put it on there and see what happens. Because I have not installed nothing on my phone in at least a week. So I don't think its anything else. But we will see thanks for your help.
So generally speaking is it the charger or the phone that terminates the charging due too high temps?

The phone, although I never heard of it happening with an internal Qi chip before. I saw some people post it about it happening back in the day on the note 2 when those aftermarket Qi adapters first came out.

Ok so this is the deal I tested it over and over. When my phone gets to 100% the charger cuts off. When my phone charges on the wireless charger it kills my deepsleep. So in other words once I hit 100% it rapidly starts going down. Then the charger kicks on again then off on off on. I took the phone off the charger and sat it on the table I did not touch anything. Within 10min I was at 95%. I put it back on the charger it got to 100% I took it off rebooted my phone then I got deepsleep? I don't know why it is killing my deepsleep?

Well that is typical behavior and not your phone overheating from the charging like the post you quoted. Qi chargers do not trickle charge like a USB charger so they do exactly what you're describing.

I never said my phone was overheating. I said it only charged to 85% and it broke my deepsleep. No deepsleep drains your battery fast. That's the problem. So if I put it on there at night before I go to bed (which is why I bought it) all night it will go on and off.

I know but that's what the person you were quoting was asking about, over heating terminating the charging.
Hi
I got this new LG V30+ (India version) few days ago. Been very satisfied overall. Great battery life.
However, I have noticed this issue with (wired) battery charging and its is kinda worrying
The very first time i charged, the battery charged all the way up to 100%. The next time (of overnight charging), i found the battery showed only 97% in the morning. Today morning, after the third overnight charging, the battery shows only 95% in the morning.
I found that if i simply unplug the charger cable and plug in again, the charging goes beyond 95% and does reach 100%
What is going on? should i be worried? (100 --> 97 --> 95 --> ??? ) Why is the max overnight charging level keep decreasing? (I'm using the stock charger and cable that came with the phone)
Thanks
Try to calibrate the battery.
This is most likely to prevent overcharging the battery.
It goes up to 100%, stops, waits till it drops to like 95% or so, and then it will charge again.
Even though this process shouldnt be visible to you (every manufacturer does that for years already), and it should always show you 100%, which is a bit weird lol
But maybe LG just handles this differently. Even though i didnt notice this on my V30. Which firmware version are you having?

V10c-IND-XX - thats the firmware... I guess?
Same issue
I am facing the same issue. My LG V30+ wont charge over 85% when charged overnight. Have to unplug usb and put it back then it goes to 100%.
Did you find the fix ?
Nope. Didn't find any "fix" till now.
The problem seems to be kind of intermittent though - on some days (of overnight charging), it does charge to 100%, most days it doesn't.
This is with wired charging.
I also happened to notice that during the nights i leave it on the wireless charging, it goes all the way to 100%.
Any solution? I'm having the problem...like exactly mentioned by you

I had similar problem. Changed the LG Charger to another Qualcomm certified fast charger and cable, issue got resolved. Hope this helps.
Never seen this before so thought I'd post and see if anyone else has this.
I work delivering groceries and they use iPhones for everything they do. They provide a chargers but since people are dishonest and steal them, the company buys more off brand chargers, the problem is they are el-cheapo chargers that only slow charge ie: trickle charge.
So I noticed this weekend my phone was draining battery while using google maps and GPS while plugged in. I found this quite odd because for near 2 yrs I've never had an issue while it's plugged in, it would hit 100% and stay there.
This time I noticed it was draining and also noticed a couple days after that, when I would plug in now, it told me it was charging, ie: slow charge and not the normal fast charging.
Even with my Anker charger in my car it did this.
Well last night I plugged into the iq side and it said charging, then I plugged into the 3.0 side and it then read fast charging.
Here's where it gets odd. Now that I have used the 3.0 side of the charger it reads fast charging, even using the iq side of the charger it reads fast charging, where just an hour before that same port was reading as just charging/slow charge, It's like the 3.0 kicked it out of slow charge mode or something.
So, that got me thinking...... Is it possible that a phone can get stuck in slow charge mode some how?
Has anyone else experienced this?
I now do not have an issue with it draining like before, so it has me wondering what's going on, why was it stuck in a seemingly slow charge only mode no matter what I did up until the 3.0 quick charge.

Right, this was an off brand I had used... Wasn't the typical iPhone charger, more a $1 cheapy charger, and most of those are 1.5 charging ports which is slow charge.
That's why I was wondering if using that some how the phone decided it was going to go into a slow charge mode only of some sort and got stuck there.
