Let me come to the point....!!
The oneplus 2 doesn't support the fast charging...
The reasons are:
1. Software update was not provided for it.
2. Hardware isn't capable for providing the fast charge
Things to be known:
1. The hardware support must be done with the CHARGER and the DATA CABLE not with mobile
2. The charger provides only 5v/2a output that is not sufficient for fast charging...
3. The DATA CABLE which Is provided by oneplus is USB 2.0 to type-c cable and its maximum data speed and power delivery is low compared to USB 3.0
4. Oneplus data cable uses the TYPE-C protocol 1.0 and data transfer speed will be slow compared to other cables
Things to be tested:
1. To try with other fast charger with other type-c cables other than oneplus cable
2. Kernel must be edited...
3. Use 3 party certified data cables which is USB 3.0 or 3.1 to TYPE-C cable for charging and data transfers as it boosts over 10gbps speed.
Conclusion:
Hence I request the developers and the people viewing this post to try out some test if they can.....!! I've posted this after researching over the net.. ain't posting for name sack
If you already ready know there hardware isn't there, then why bother testing

Apparently you have done an extensive research on the subject, can you post your sources? I mean the link from where your read all about?
Have you done yourself any of the suggested solutions?
I'm no developer but kernel solution might seem adding the correct charging driver... but driver and hardware must match then you must change the charging circuit for some with quick/dash charging.

Fast charge capable or not, I use my wife's Nexus 6p charger(cord and brick) and it's way faster than with the oneplus supplied charger.
So i used the OP3 charger on my OP2 and it seems to charge faster. Maybe is just psychological. So did some tests
Used Gsam battery monitor to see the charge current
Normal Samsung charger rated at 1.5A : current is 999 mA
OP3 charger : 1500mA
So the OP3 added about 5% in about 15 min
Worth trying. People have been discovering so many things on other phones which manufacturer claims not provided blablabla (could be for marketing stunts etc and preserve for next gen device) but was enabled through hacks by the community.
If there's time and interest, proceed in the name of science

I guess so, also means that there are better chargers than the stock OP2 charger available
I get between 1800 and 2100ma ma/hr from the stock cable and charging brick. This is measured with the 3c "battery monitor widget" as well as with a USB multimeter.
If I change the cable to an aftermarket one the charging I can get up to 1800ma/hr.
The charging brick makes little difference as long as it can push over 2 amps.
The phone seems to pull the highest amperage when it starts charging from less than 40% and is less than 30°C.

Well that puts the dash charging theory to rest. But nice to know that the first 30% happens at almost 1% charge per min

I don't know if it's a kernel/rom problem, or a hardware controller that's at fault, but ever since I got this phone charging in car chargers, computer usb outlets, and even alternate wall chargers has been painstakingly slow!
It takes forever to charge, and takes a dedicated powerful wall outlet to even do anything.
Anyone else experiencing this?
The default Samsung Provided Wall outlet charger provides .7A of power, while USB provides .5A of power max. Also what percentage do you charge it at, and can you take a screenshot of your battery usage graph?
The 3rd party chargers that designed for iDevices are not recognized as AC chargers and will be charging at USB mode which is much shower.

According to Entropy512, here is the quote:
Improved battery charge algorithm for faster charging - Initial research indicates we have an alternate battery charger chip (MAX8922) that differs from the MAX8997 used in the I9100. We DO have an 8997 also - but on our device for some reason Samsung decided to use an alternate chip instead of using the 8997's built-in charging. This means we have far fewer options (90,400,660 mA) in terms of charge rates compared to the I9100 (from 200 to 950 in 50 mA steps). So we might not be able to implement any fancy charging algorithms.

So if I am understanding correctly we were limited to 660 mA at max and unless some way to change it is found, there is unfortunately no use from more powerful chargers .

Perhaps you have either a faulty battery or a faulty charger.
Here is a link where you can buy a new battery and wall charger for under 8 bucks for both with free shipping!
Check it out here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1800m-BATTE...045605?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item43aa9a4465
Put your phone in to power saving mode and see if it charges faster.
Other wise exchange it under warranty.
I've experienced that this devices charges significantly slower then my previous devices.
I found it odd when I saw the stock a/c USB adapter outputs at .7mA so i did a starch and found an article out there with a statement from Samsung stating that their devices are designed to charge slow because it's healthier for the battery.
I don't know if the charging current is restricted by some code in the kernel or a physical chip in the main board.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda premium
It is true that slow charges do increase the overall life of the battery. Also not charging it all the way or discharging it all the way will keep the life of the battery. If you discharge the phone all the way down, it will take much longer to charge than charging it back up from 20% or so.

Physical chip. However on other GS2s and original GalaxyS phones, the chip was fairly controllable by the kernel.
Ours isn't - it has three settings. 90, 400, 660 mA.

It is 600mA, and it just charges the spare battery.
I strongly advise against buying third party batteries or chargers. The Galaxy S 2 (AT&T version) uses a battery with NFC technology. Using anything other than an OEM Samsung battery, or an NFC compliant battery could cause damage to your device.

Hello everyone I found in aliexpress.com a charger with QC 2.0 technology at a great price and demonstrates all requirements have to be able to charge our equipment in a quickly and efficiently way.
Tell me what you think and if any of you can try out the charger.
Search: "globel universal charger DC 24W MAX 2A quick charge 2.0 4 usb port wall charger changeable plug for mobile phone" only US $ 16.00 / item

You already got it ?
Do not bother with quick charge 2.00, although snapdragon 801 support it I don't think our z2 software has that enabled.
Why I am saying that is because the maximum charging current the z2 draws is 1.50 amps (measuring it with one of these)
I've tried different chargers (oneplus charger, anker charger which both capable of 2 amps) and different cables and always the max is 1.50

Is that on a dead battery? Current flow will settle down as the battery reaches more charge for safety.
I use a 1A charger from my old HTC phone with the dock at night, but it doesn't feel to me like my Sony wall charger is any faster. In fact, it feels slower. The quickest charges I got were actually through my desktop, my motherboard has a charging feature on the USB 3.0 ports.

Ah sorry, guess I read wrong.
But as Sony and Qualcomm say the Z2 is QuickCharge compatible I think it should be working.
You can't see more than 1.5A because you do not have a QuickCharge 2.0 charger! And even if you would and then plug this USB anpereMeter in between it might block the data transfer making the phone think it is connected to a standard USB port.
I'm not even sure if QuickCharge 2.0 CAN draw more than 1.5A! We only know that it allows up to 9V or 12V.
There are 3A or 4A 9V chargers around. But I don't know how much the phone would want to get.
BTW. With Doomkernel and FastCharge enabled you should be able to demand more than 1.5A... I think up to 2A was available in FauxApp
But I think I failed when I tried. Not sure anymore... ^^ been a while.
I have a nice collection of quick charge 2.0 chargers around the house, so this is a real negative blow if true.

It still charges very fast with the stock charger.

I was going to say this as well. Google is all about proper standards and not going proprietary (probably part of their "Dont be evil" motto). It will suck for a while since USB Type C is not widely adopted yet but soon enough it will be.
http://www.tomsguide.com/us/google-nexus-6p,review-3131.html
"Google claims that when the phone's battery finally dies, the Nexus 6P can recover up to 7 hours of juice from only 10 minutes of charging with the included charger. After 10 minutes, the phone's power level went from 0 to 32 percent. At the 20-minute mark, the phone had a 48 percent charge."
I see why they didn't bother with the expense of getting qc certification. This is insanely fast charging. The first 10 minutes is roughly 3% per minute! All I need now are 3rd party charger options and I know aukey, anker and tronsmart among others are working on it and I'm confident we'll see cost effective options available in the next month max.

I don't know what I was thinking honestly. I guess I just wanted some other opinions. I know it will be all good down the road. It just sucks that I have a good 3 or 4 chargers that won't be able to get the job done as fast anymore. I did read the entire article, but it looks like they've updated it a couple times since.
Actually whichever phone you may get, there would be some missing features always. Better cope with it and wait for the next editions.

WRONG
Quickcharge is more efficient with the same cable. Fastcharge needs a thicker cable to work the same.
/intentionally being vague and not explaining the electronics theory behind my wild claims in order to get a rise out of the un-aptly name sparky.
To add to this, USB Power isn't dumb.. there's a handshake involved where the device says what it needs. You can have a charger capable of 1.21 jiggawatts if you like, if it thinks the device caps out at 2A, that's what it'll send. It needs to understand the chargng protocol in use.

Not true,
Quick charge works by increasing the voltage, with varying charging profiles. The following are the profiles of the Nexus 6 charger:
Standard - 5V x 1.6A = 8W
Turbo 1 - 9V x 1.6A = 14.4W
Turbo 2 - 12V x 1.2A = 14.4W
The Nexus 6P power brick charges at 5V x 3A = 15W

You've probably heard of quick charging, turbo charging, adaptive fast charging, rapid charging, and Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 before - or at least one or two of these things. What you may not know is that all of them are actually basically the same thing, based on the same licensed technology from Qualcomm known as Quick Charge.
With that basic premise in mind, what I want to dispel in this article is the notion that you need an OEM-branded charger to get the maximum charging speed out of your smartphone, because this generally isn't true. And understanding that could save you a fair bit of money, especially if your phone doesn't come with a quick charger, or you need a second one for work or travel.

No, the whole point is that the OP can still use those chargers he already has and get the same result.
Good news folks.
The 5X has a QC 2.0 chip. http://9to5google.com/2015/10/22/nexus-5x-teardown-repairability/
The 6P likely has the same (we'll have to wait and see).

It is insanely fast. I have a Chromebook Pixel that uses the type-c connector. It's faster than both my turbo charger and Samsung's fast charger. Most of my connectors are the regular USB. I didn't buy a lot of QC chargers other than what came with my phones, and one Motorola turbo charger.
Funny, was just watching the 5x teardown - condensed version - and they mention quick charge 2.0 chip was there.
Then I was reading about the n6 for $270 on eBay, and they mention this about qc 2.0;
can regain six hours of power after 15 minutes of charging with Motorola's special turbocharger that features Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 technology.
We get 7 hrs with 10 min charging time on the 6p, with a bigger battery.
Guess which I prefer to have .....
the bottom line is how long will it take from 0-100% charged
I got my phone today, and one of the first things that I did was test all of the Chargers.
My first thought is that the one plus cable that I bought is very high quality. Every charger that I tested, it charge faster than the cheapo ones that I bought on Amazon.
However, what I've been consistently surprised with is that using the same cable this phone charges faster on a Qualcomm quick charge 2 charger than it does on a standard USB charger. I've tested this with all sorts of Chargers around my house and I'm consistently seeing around 1500 when connected to a quick charger, and only a thousand when connected to a standard charger.
The USB C charger that came with the phone is significantly faster. However I wanted to share this so that for those others who bought all sorts of Qualcomm quick charge 2.0 Chargers, don't throw them out. They're still better than a regular charger.
Yeah on a good USB 3.1 cable (nice and thick) with my standard quickcharge charging block (7 ports, 60W total IIRC) I get 'charging rapidly' and it charges better than 1% a minute - about the same rate my N5 did on a much smaller battery. I've still not taken the google charger out of its box yet.. Need to get around to testing it even if I can't see myself using it.

I am curious as to what "standard" chargers you are using. I have a wall charger rated at 5v 2.1a (non-QC) per port and a car charger rated at 5v 2.4a (non-QC) per port, and both of those charge at 1500ma. Is it possible that your "standard" chargers are only rated for 5v 1a output?

Your results have nothing to do with them being QuickCharge bricks, I have a inline amp meter and I can get 1.5 on any brick with an amp rating high enough, not just my QC bricks that I was using with my Moto X. At least people will know if they have a QC brick they'll get at least that though.

This link explains it well: https://m.androidcentral.com/dash-charge
They will charge faster than an old .5 amp you may have kicking around in a drawer. Realistically they will charge fast enough because how often do you need every drop you can get as quickly as possible? On the occasions you do need that you just take it to the dash charger and all is good. It's not just me saying that, there was a thread on a previous OnePlus device where someone else said what I just did and the agreement was unanimous. I couldn't argue it myself, I had found just the same to be true; I was typically in no hurry to charge the device and when I was I just made a point of going to the dash charger. I'm not sure what your use case is but if it was to go all dash all the time you may want to consider waiting a little and seeing how it plays out in use. I think you'll find your ok with just the one that came in the box or getting a second for the office or cart and calling it a day.
Someone not only do you need the charger you need the cable to? That wasn't explained in the article. Can you clarify?

You're probably not going to see the term "Dash Charge" anywhere,since OnePlus stopped using the phrase.
Whether they replaced it w/something else to indicate fast charging is anyone's guess (if there was any indication of Dash (fast) charging on previous OnePlus devices).

You will see a lightning bolt in place for the battery icon when Dash Charging is active, and if you plug in the Dash charger while on the lock screen, it will also make a short blip noise with an animated lightning bolt. Standard chargers and/or cables will show the lightning bolt inside the battery icon. You can always look at the charger current using the *#808# menu though.
Wait does the cable really matters? from the article linked, looks like the tech is only in the adapter
It matters because if you don't use one designed for it you wont get Dash charging, and yeah, its irritating that we have drawers full of cables that we cant use. As to the question of how you can tell, it says "Rapidly charging" on the lock screen. You'll also notice the phone gets charged stupidly fast, that's a big tell.

Yes it does. Pushing 4 amps to get more watts requires low resistance cables, otherwise the resistance will limit maximum wattage. With QuickCharge (instead of DASH charge) voltage is raised instead of current, mitigating the resistance problem.
For QuickCharge there also a handshake telling both the phone and charger that both devices support a certain charging standard. Only then current (or voltage) is raised above normal USB levels. Otherwise you would risk destroying devices which are not capable of fast charging.

Tragic...I invested a lot into my PD chargers for my 2xl guess I need to update everything again
But do you? How often do you NEED dash charge? You can still use all the other charges, they just won't charge as fast, but that's not a bad thing if you are not in a hurry.
The Dash charger works the fastest, however my Quick Charge 3.0 car and wall chargers are still delivering 2 to 3 times more m to my OneTouch 6T then my Galaxy 8 (Rated for Quick Charge 2.0) ever took, that is using higher end usb-c cables but not the Dash cables.
The Highest I ever saw my s8 take was 1300 mA, this 6T will take 2300 mA from my QC 3.0 car charger and 3200 mA from my QC 3.0 wall charger, as long as the battery is under 70%. However, the Dash charger with Dash cable gets around 4800 mA but it seems to fill the battery at a more rapid pace then what I would expect for that amount of power going into it.
The Dash cables have more pins in them to deliver segmented power, at the proper voltage and amperage, to partitioned batteries simultaneously in the 6T without it causing your phone to heat up.
