[Q] Quick charging capabilities? - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anybody know if this phone supports rapid charging like the Galaxy Note 3 and other phones that charges at 2 Amps. I know it has something to do with compatability of the chip they include in the phone. Does anybody know?

It has Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0
Right now there are no 2.0 chargers out yet but it does have 1.0 also which works with any charger

Good..thanks!

Does anyone know when/where I can get a charger that will utilise Quick Charge 2.0 on my m8?

quick charge 4.0 wall charger

Is this one Tenker, 60W Adapter with PD/QC4.0 truly quick charge 4.0 certified or just QC 4.0 compatible?
What QC 4.0 chrager would you advice?
I'd prefer one with 3-4 USB ports, capable of charging 3 phones/tablets at once
I suggest you check out the Razer charger. They are a very trusted, high end company.

This phone supports QC 4.0? I looked on official LG site and it only says 3.0.

Correct, but it supports QC4.0 (as confirmed by others). May be two possible reasons 1) Bad marketing 2) The included charger is only QC3.0 (Why LG, why...its you flagship phone, show some respect and love)
It says
"These devices contain the hardware necessary to achieve Quick Charge 4/4+. It is at the device manufacturer’s
discretion to fully enable this feature."
I do hope it's enabled by default.

Well QC4.0 chargers are almost none existant, that's why
A better QC 3.0 charger than the original (with more amps / 12 volt) can decrease charging time?
Hi
Has anyone tried this charger ?
I did not find any Videos on Youtube or orther sites selling it
What got me Interested in this charger was it has 2 Usb ports
1 of QC 3.0 & orther of QC 4.0
do not know if it works
See it here -

Yeah the 845 supports it but i dont think LG has enabled it in firmware.
Im just excited we have fast wireless charging thats useable.
Kind of like bands, the radio will do them all but most are firmware specific.

before buy qc 4.0 charger i think the first step is create a mod that enable quickcharge when screen is on and possibility of increase max charging current to 3 amp
notice that when screen is on max current is around 1A and when is off is around 2.2A
so i think is useless buy an expensive charger when the firmware is limited to these values

Exactly, we need a custom kernel to have the charging amperes to be changed manually which is really cool. If we have a really cool custom kernel, the CPU governors should preset customisable governors (for smooth performance) and for the charge values, just look for a 3A charger, with the Kernel Adiutor change the values. Meaning the benefits of rooting gives us the complete freedom of our Android! If a 4A charger is detected by the kernel manager app, the charge values should show as "upto 4A even with the screen on! Then no need to be jealous of Dash Charging of One Plus!
so... if u bought a quick charge 4.0 brick... will it charge the g7 faster than QC 3.0?

Why? So G7 could pave the ways of Galaxy Note 7 and if not burn in flames then at least loose 50% of battery capacity in half a year? Sorry I'm not enlisting to shoot myself in the foot and throw expensive $700 phone in half a year to garbage can just because
Quick Charge 4.0 doesn't bump currents to 3A, it's not working that way. It bumps voltages to 20V instead

Yes, and no, i think the only one "problem" (or protection?) is the limit at 1 amp when the screen is unlocked, 20 volt i think isn't so useful if we use a good usb cable

But, even Samsung said and officially stated that after Note 7 fiasco they made same limit of 1A when screen is unlocked to prevent fast battery degrading. Samsung knows better then XDA uses, I think

It's not 20 volts. That's way too much for a battery. It's actually 9v + 2 amps. 20v it's mostly for Tables i think.

9 Volts isn't even Quick Charge 3.0, it's legacy QC 2.0.
QC 3.0 & 4.0 compatible phones can get charged from 20V, 12V, 9V and 5V
This is the one I use:
https://www.aukey.com/products/quick-charge-3-0-wall-charger-pa-t9
But if I plan ahead, I try not to use it very often. It works well, it's just that the long-term health of my battery benefits from slower charging.

Fast Charging Support

Hi all,
There's no mention of Fast/Quick charging anywhere about with this phone and every review I've seen specifically mention it's not supported.
I've just plugged my phone into a Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 power bank and the below icon has appeared. Is this a quick charge icon?
It definitely seems to be charging quicker than with other chargers I've used.
Yes, that is Qualcomm quick charge icon. It supports QC 3.0.
Mine says charging fast when plugged in so its supported.
And it goes really fast. I can watch youtube and the percentage will tick tock upwards every few seconds even when being used.
It comes with QC 3.0 charger... Hello...

The charger I received with my device definitely doesn't trigger the QC icon. I'm UK based and it's an EU charger through an adaptor so that might be screwing it up.

Not Fast Charging in Car

So I have 2 Aukey QC 3.0 fast charging adapters for my car, however, neither work for the S10+. It either says slowly charging or charging. These adapters work fine with my S8+ so what gives? Did Samsung start blocking third party chargers or something, I've tried the factory USB C cable as well, so it's not that. Also, I use an Aukey QC 3.0 adapter at home which works perfectly fine, so I'm not sure if Samsung is only blocking 3rd party car adapters.
If anyone has a working fast charging adapter for their car, would you mind posting a link if its available on amazon? thanks
All of my current home and car chargers for the S9+ are working as fast chargers, might not be as fast as fast charge 2.0.

Has your car ever fast charged any phone?
Most cars simply fail at delivering that much power, fast charger or not

Yes, like I said, it works for my S8+. I have another adapter which is iRAG branded, that one works fine, so I guess I'll just re-order that one, if anyone is interested, it's this one:

Surprising that the Aukey branded one doesn't work considering the S10+ still uses Qualcomm's Quick Charge 2.0, which is as old as the S6

Samsung S10 series doesn't use Qualcomm quick charge 2.0 rather its Samsung fast charge 2.0. There are a lot of confusion regarding QC 2.0, 3.0 to FC 2.0

Download Ampere from the play store, everything over 1600 mAh Is considered "fast charging".
You'll have more luck with generic fast chargers such as some made by Anker or your previous one instead of those marketed for QC 3.0.
My own wall QC 3.0 fails to charge over 1a, it doesn't even fall back to standard charge or QC 2, which would be around 1.5a+, meanwhile my Samsung charger and Anker Power core 2 do 2.2a+ just fine, there is clearly lack of compatibility with Qualcomm's protocol.

I use the Blackweb 5.4 amp car charger that I got at Wal-Mart. It has a 3 amp USB-C port that I use for my s10+ that I use and it provides fast charging. I also use the USB-C to USB-C cable that came with it.

so did you get the Q.C 4.0 charger? did it charge faster? you might need a USB PD charger that can do at-least 21 watts.
LG is just imitating Samsung here, they did the exact same thing with my S8. I only ever fast charged that phone on my laptop.
I wonder if they're secretly trying to extend battery life, isn't fast charge rough on a battery?

I do have the fast charger in my car I cannot say it charges any faster but I don't know if it's certified by Qualcomm. I got it from Amazon
45W?
There seems to be disagreement between Qualcomm and LG. On LG's website it says G8 is QC3.0 in "Power & Performance" section of their Specs page, while QualComm lists G8 as capable of QC4.0 (but not 4.0+).

Which charger did you get and how well does it work?
Old post, worth insisting.
Bought G8, Korean, bit it's the same, only some different bands.
Like previously said I've read QC 3 on LG US website, but QC 4+ on Qualcomm.
I've bought two Hama wall chargers, 3 and 4+.
I also use the 65W PD charger of my laptop.
All three have same exact charging time.
So, how can this be?
Shouldn't 4+ be faster than 3?
If yes, than the G8 it's indeed only QC 3...
Has anyone tried a QC 4 charger yet? How does USB PD speeds compare to QC 3/4? I'm coming from OnePlus and debating about what charger(s) to buy. What's been the fastest chargers?

Confirm this has QC3.0?

I know that there is a teardown showing a QC 3.0 charge controller in the phone, but has anyone actually tried charging it with a QC 3.0 (and maybe 2.0) charger? Can you confirm that it does still charge fairly quickly? Don't really want to change all my QC chargers and powerbank. It will be a bonus if someone can test it with a Huawei FCP charger too as that charge my Mi8 Lite (QC 3.0) fast too.
Thanks.
