Our z2 phones have support for QC2.0 on hardware but sony disabled it in software (probably because of overheating)
Don't waste money on another more powerfull charger as the phone will only charge with 1.5amp max. ~3h is the normal charge time for the z2.

Z2 does not support QC2.0 simply because it may overheat the charging port
Z2 also charges differently depending on your firmware

only the Japanese version of Z2 supports quick Charge, all others don't.
charging for 3 hours is absolutly normal.
Here a few Charging benchmarks i made:
.402 with Doomkernel v9
.314 Ultimate Pure custom
fully stock 4.4.4
and Magnetic port

super charging ! can anyone confirm it?

Hey guys
we know that sony claims the SXS will fully charge in 45 min
however so far mine needs about two hours to fully charge, and many other people confirmed this
while there are some people say it charge fast
so let us get to the bottom of this
who can confirm that his device charges in 45min ? and is the charger similar to the old sony-erricson chargers? or is it a new Sony branded super charger?
is it software related? that can be solved with the ICS , or it's the charger that matters
I think it does indeed charge fast, It just takes a few days for the battery to kick in I think.
There was a post from someone about it, and after a few days it does indeed pick up with charging.

that's what I thought at the begining and some people said that
but what made me confuesed is that other people relate the super charging to the new charger !
where some others ( like me ) got the old charger which is even branded as ( sony erricsion !)
so in a few days I will reply back if the charging speed has changed or not

yes have the same impression
Got mine XS last night ran the battery down 1%, full charge took 3 hrs this morning. Although it said 100% I powered off the phone and carry on charging until battery gauge showed complete charge.
from the articles and reviews I read... my understanding is that from a depleted battery it would charge up to 80% in 30 minutes and then slow down and charge the remaining 20% at a normal pace. This was to not cause damage to the battery by going to full charge at the fast pace.
Cheers

Correct. And this is using the new "Fast charger" Sony bundled with the S, which gives an output amperage higher than standard USB.
With the "old" charger it takes a lot longer to charge.
My charger output: 5.0 vdc, 850 mA, same as motorola charger.
My XS charger outputs less than my HTC charger. Charging from 10% to full on the latter takes over 3 hours so how does this super charging work?
Please take a look on this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1545002
They're mentioning that it's possible to receive two different chargers in Xperia's S box: EP800 and EP850. They're completely different chargers, and have very different outputs.
EP800 has output of 850mAh, and EP850 has an output of 1500mAh.
For those with 'super charging' available, could you please confirm which one is the charger you have received? Those that are charging slowly, which one you got there?
Would be nice to know that. Unfortunally, no one posted on the 'What did you get in your Xperia S Box?' thread which one was the charger model shipped with their boxes.
I think this was one of the 'selling points' for Xperia S, so this should be available to all...

EP800 here - bought from Expansys.
I have the ep850 charger. I have the phone for 6 days now. Let the battery empty yesterday then plugged in the charger. After 30 minutes it was around 45% charged. Took 1h 40m to fully charge.

AFAIK they never said it only took 45min, I heard 1hr 10min.
And if you have the EP850 (fast charger) it does indeed charge in 1hr)

Same experience here. 1 hour 15 minutes from empty to 100%.
Looks like people from the netherlands got some good deals.
They got the new charger (EP850) and a voucer for a smart wirelesss headset pro aswell.
People in denmark get the old Sony ericsson charger (EP800) No voucher, no leather pounch and no smart tags either.

That goes for the UK too.
Anyone know if the EP-850 is available for purchase anywhere? A quick search turns up nothing.

But there was a extra screen protector in the box, and regarding the smart tags, sony denmark has announced that they will send it to the one who has bought the phone. But the missing super charger is almost cheating, as it has been mentioned many places as a feature of the phone.

I've been doing a search aswell with no luck. I'm guessing it will available later on. Because you can buy the EP800 separately. So we just have to be patienced.

If your next charge takes a long time like four hours plus then their is a cahrging problem .

Yes I'm using the same charger. I even tried using my nexus 7 charger has well but still chargers very slowly. My original battery had a problem and could only charge to 78%. That old battery usually takes about 2hrs from 0%-78%

Thanks for the reply, I changed chargers but it did not seem to help me... I thought I was a problem because I was rooted. So I unrooted and this problem still persists... It is also inconvenient for me to change the charger because it was bought from overseas.

I solved half my problem... I found out that the problem was with my cable. Its not a Sammy cable but a Sony one. My Sammy cable had the same problem and could not charge. Therefore half of the problem is the cable... But it still takes about 10hrs to charge...
I found out that even my car charger does not work...

[Q] Total time to full charge Z2 with EP880 ?

Hello guys, I have a question , I've bought my new Z2 D6503 for a week, I charge it with EP880 charger (Input ~250mA) + EC803 cable from 1% to 100% about 3h30m, but in my country, people have EP880 charger with 300mA Input and take only 3h10m to full charge so I borrow their charger and test with my phone, it takes around 3h20m, so are my charger (250mA) and charging time normal ?
Thank you for reading, please help me, I'm very worried about it
I dont actualy know but with basic math we can

1500mAh
2:20hrs avg charging

Thks for your reply, but 2:20hrs from 1% to 100%, are you serious ? @@, if you get a look at the info in your charger, at Input line, you will see 100-240V~250mA or 300mA depend on your market, I can post 2 kind of the same EP880 with different input current if you want to check, I aslo see the revew from phonearena, they took 212m~3h32m to charge it full, but I don't know what kind of charger they used. But do you think there is a different charge time between 2 same phone, ex. D6502 and D6503 ?
Sr for my bad English, cheers!

Hm... maybe yours has QC 2.0 so you can reach nice time like that .
So can you tell me, with 2 kind of charger above, which one I should use ? And does the charger time around 3h30m prove that my charger is still good ? Or maybe cable problem ? Because max current pull in my phone with both of them only 1100mA, no more

charging too slow

my z2 D6502 (on stock rom 5.0.2 not rooted yet) is charging slowly.it takes 2 hours and hlaf to full charge..is that normal?can i use S5 2 amp charger without any problem ?
As I know this is normal
My Z2 D6503 takes between 2.5 - 3 hours to charge
I contacted Sony for that and send my phone to them but they said nothing with my phone
Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk
yes thats fully normal, i takes around 180 Minutes to charge from 2% to 100% with the official EP880 1.5A charger.
You can use a 2A charger but i probably wont charge much faster.
Its normal
Btw this whole forum gets messed up with threads like this and everyone allowed with it because no one report useless threads and i am just curious where the Moderators are -__-"

Honor 8X Slow Charging

Hi guys! The phone is taking over 2hrs 30 mins to charge from 0 to 100% with the supplied 5V 2A charger. Is there any way to improve the charging time, considering this is very slow?
Not really as it doesn't support fast charge

yes that was a disappointment to me too... Previous phone was a Motorola Nexus 6 with fast charge, it was charging from 0 to 80% in like 30mn :-/
Will miss that. This said 8X battery really hold for 2 days, so just not forgetting to put it in charge one night every two and problem solved.
Well will using a 2.4A fast charger destroy the battery ?
For me charging:
- from 10% to 80% - 1h 5min..
- from 10% to 100% - 1h 59m..
Checked it by AccuBattery app.
I use 5V 2A/9V 2A oryginal charger. Only that my phone has 5000 mAh of capacity, not 3750 mAh. My phone Honor 8X Max support fast charge, Honor 8X does not support fast charge.

I connect my phone to charger every about 10 days, but I use my phone only a little...
I didn't know the 8x does not have fast charging... I have the 8x max and it has fast charging at 9v 2A
