Already tried those... Qc-2.0 is working in its half glory now.. That means z2 now supports qc current at 1700ma, but we have to boost it upto 2300ma.

Super slow
Why does my phone only charge at 850mah if I'm using a 5v 2a Samsung charger? When I tried the stock charger the speed goes down to 600mah... Why am I only getting half of what others are getting? I'm really thinking of switching phones as this is unacceptable. 5 hours to chatge the phone...

there´s no option to have QC 2.0 on locked bootloader?
i´m having issues to unlockl it with flashtool (bootloader unlock allowed: YES) is not the first time i´ve unlocked it, but now flashtool can´t unlock it, i think is windows 10 and have problems with adb drivers compatibility

Ya. Driver support may be the problem. Btw, if u have root, u can do it in terminal, just use the command.

Sony's Official EP880 charger provides 1.5A
You also have to include the Power the Phone is already using some power, so if you use "Ampere" app to check charging current, then you have to add about 250-400mA depeding on Screen Brightness and CPU load.

That still only adds up to about 1 Amp... And I'm using a 2A Samsung charger... Both that and the Sony charger charge at around 600-800ma

buddy check the original thread, there have been huge changes. :cyclops:

Hi all, I'm sorry to ask this, I'm using CM12.1 now, is there any hope to using the qc? Does it have any flashable zip to flash? Thank you ?

No big benefit if you don't have a kernel which allows for a higher current than 1.5A

Increase power output from USB OTG

Hey there.
I just got the latest version of Stweaks and saw that there was a way to change the amount of power used for USB charging.
Would this feature or another mod enable me to draw more power from the USB port so I have a hope in hell of powering a small USB hub?
Thanks

[Q] charging issue

Hello,
recently after getting my phone back from repair the device will either charge very slowly or doesnt charge at all
usually reconnecting the charger back solves the problem.
i have seen in the forum many people complaining about this issue but i have never seen a real answer for this..
i did rule out the possibility that the charger is flawed, the charger is fine i even baught a new one and tried multiple others.
so it must be either the phone hardware or.. maybe software?.. in case its software i did try reformating the device
but that didnt help at all.
my question is, would reflashing the rom be a possible solution?. i never did flash the rom its the stock one from the day i got it
and it has neevr been reflashed or anything just reformat.
i have no interest in custom roms unless its necesery.
thankyou

He alr said he changed the charger. Also, charging on a pc will definitely be slower as the voltage is lower.

Return to the repairer .
Doubt if flash stock will help but worth a try as you don't know what the repair has broken .
Well there are two features added on all galaxy roms i guess, one which detects unstable power and decreases the charge rate to a point which makes it stable and the safety margin which does something similar i can't really remember however if you want the normal charging rate it is a necessity that you flash a custom kernel the only one i know of which has a feature of disabling these two options is boeffla's kernel and even increase the charging rate

Changing the kernel will give you a whole lot of new options too you should try it
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
well, i've tried it during the whole day and i plugged/unplugged the charger many times
it worked fine (thats after reflashing the stock rom 4.3), after that i did notice one time it was plugged for about 20 mins and no change of battery precentage. so that got me worried..
i download "galaxy charging current" to see the values of the charging and it said
max: 600
now:999
avg:600
now im just trying 2 get suspocious maybe its the charger after all it seem maybe alittle deffected even tho its new..

Yes you can flash it on the 4.3 rom
Wiping dalvic cache and cache should be good enough

I had this problem with my S3 using the stock charger. Sometimes it switched back to USB charging mode which was slow and sometimes couldn't even keep up while gaming. I fixed it by buying an other generic usb charger (try a cheap bulky one).

thanks! appearntly the charger i purchased from the same store arent genuine so that might be it..
i tried a couple of friend's genuine chargers and it worked great..
im gonna purchase one like that somewhere.. maybe ill find on ebay
and test it for few weeks see if it works fine
so i guess in conclusion this mobile is very sensitive toward non-genuine chargers..
but wat did u mean by "generic usb charger" exactly..?
like the ones that r ac to usb adapters and i just connect the usb cable?

Maybe generic is not the right word. English is not my native language : ) What I mean is just a regular all-purpose (not necessarily branded) power supply with a USB port. Look for the maximum current output. That should match or (preferably) exceed 500 mA. Don't look for a iPhone compatible charger. These look tempting with their 2.1 A current rating but your S3 could fail to recognize the potential of the power supply and switch back to USB charging mode. Android phones recognize an AC power supply by their data lines being electrically shorted. With iPhones that's a bit different if I recall correctly.
I partly agree with your conclusion. I do think the S3 is very picky with power supplies, but I don't think a genuine charger is a guaranteed success. As stated in my previous post, my phone charges at maximum current with an unbranded charger which I bought after my original Samsung charger (the one that came with the phone) failed to achieve the same.
alright so i finaly purchased a genuine charger for sure..
appearntly the chargers i bought from the other store were not..
and i have used it for about 2 weeks now and it works amazing.. always shows 800 on charging
so in conclusion any1 have this kind of problem.. make sure the charger rly is geuine.. there r so many fakes out there..

OnePlus X wireless charging

Well, you can go ahead. However, the "chip" will need to be placed inside the phone's body or you could buy a cover(a thin one) and use that as a placeholder for it.
It will charge as normal then.

Apparently QC3 is not compatible with RN3. Probably you can fix it yourself by following the instructions on this thread.
Good luck!
