mine definitely charging faster than that. didn't really measure but very sure it's about 2 hour for me to get from 5% to about full charge. original charger with mobile data turned on.

tell that to honor. that's what they say it'll take to reach full charge or there about.. ?
anyway, I will try to get a more accurate indication sometime this week..

yeah , calculate accurate and post it :good:

Mine went from 6% to 62% in 59 minutes today. It reached 100% after about 100 mins. Stock charger and stock cable. You have to look for the double lightning bolt symbol in the battery icon to know that it's charging rapidly. The fast charging only works with the stock charger. I tried charging with my Nexus 6P charger which charges that phone quickly but didn't charge my Honor quickly.

The company has made a claim that it takes 1 hr 50 min to completely charge with their OEM Charger. So I am sure that the QC3 works fine since the battery capacity is also 4000mah. Other phones with 3000-3300mah charge within 1 hr 30mins coz they have substantially lesser capacity.

just sharing the stats from last night:
22:51 @ 5%
23:02 @ 13% (11mins; +8%)
23:42 @ 50% ( 51mins; + 45%) // (40mins; +37%)
it does look like we can get about 100% in 2 hours.
and sorry, didn't continue with measurements coz i was already zzZZZzzZZz... tiring day.

Next time if you experience slow charging you can try flipping the cable 180 degrees and try. Because that's what I've noted and even @venugopalu007 also experienced similar thing.

I use Ampere from the playstore to test the voltage on all my phones, so I can figure out what connections work best.

I am also noticing the same thing. This is weird.

Mine can definitely go full charge under 2 hours charging from about 10%, BUT only if I don't touch it at all. If I use the phone at all during charging it charges at a literal snail's pace even if I open low power app like an ebook reader. Screen is always set to around 35% brightness, and I'm using stock in the box huawei charger. Ampere gives it a reading of 1060mA then it goes down to 600ish mA and it does display the doublebolt in the battery icon . Is that normal? At times it can charge for 40minutes while I'm using a game app and it barely increased 1%(screen on) While my sister using a micro USB charger on her xiaomi redmi note 4, had no severe slow down on charging times even when playing intensive games while connected to the charger( Same battery size I believe).

[Q] Li-poly Batteries Questions

Hey everyone,
I received my Xperia Arc S 3 days ago. Well, since it's my first smartphone and I was not used to it I first used all the battery and then I gave it 12hours of charging.
Well it seems I did it wrong since Li-Poly batteries shouldn't be charged on that way. So, here are my questions.
1. The fact of letting my phone completely discharge and then give it 12 hours charge was a BIG MISTAKE?
2. How can I correctly charge my device?
Thank you all.
Why it should be a big mistake?
I've done the same:
buying
completely discharged
charged for many hours
I haven't any battery drain or something and I also heard you should do that (correct me if I'm wrong).
Hey pal,
Well I thought it would be the right procedure as well but it seems that with Li-Poly batteries we shouldn't let them completely discharge as it may affect its life. However, I am not sure and I still don't know if it's the truth! Let's wait for some more feedback and see what's coming.
Plus, how long does your battery stand?
Note: In addition, thank you for your response
These new batteries need no charging circles etc
You're good to go

If I'm correct previous batteries had 5% circles and current batteries have about 20% (as a full charge).
He means that everything is okay and you won't have any problems.

Ok buddy,
Thank you for that!
Well, plus, can I remove the device after 3 / 4 hours (as long as it says 100%) of charging and normally use it with only that time of charging? What about the opposite? Let it charge all night long while I sleep? No problem with both methods?

No problem with both.
Usually I'm charging over night too.
But if I remember right a complete charge only needs about 2 hours.

Well, my one is charging for 2 hours now and it says its battery is 88% charged!
I have to leave in 1:30 hours and I guess It'll be fully charged then. Hopefully I won't have to charge it again during the night
You can plug it in as long as you want, nothing will happen exept the battery gets charged.
Sometimes I plug it in 5 mins before going out and my battery is ok.

Can the maximum voltage be removed(3.7v)

Elephone has limited the battery voltage to 3.7, I'm not 100% sure if that limits the charging too. If it does limit charging, is it possible to remove the limit as a big battery needs a lot of charging time, mine takes 3 hours with a 2A 5V samsung charger and about 4 with elephone charger.
I'm not sure if the voltage limit can be removed, but considering how big the battery is, I'd say 3 hours isn't bad at all to charge from very low to 100%.

Elephone advertised it can be fully charged in 90 minutes, of course I don't expect my phone to do 0-100 in 90 minutes but it should be able to do less than 3 hours(double the time advertised)

To be fair Elephone advertised that you gain 10% in 10 minutes ... which is true if we're talking about 5%-15% (try it), but not true if we're talking about 90%-100%

REALLY?? Wow I don't remember reading this anywhere! I just assumed 3 hours was decent, although I'm coming from a ~3 year old HTC One that seemed to almost be on its last legs.
Do you remember where you read it? Cause I'm curious now...

Sorry my bad, must of been another phone I was looking into at the time of buying my P8000
They have set that charging rate for the fastest most reliable,any higher could cook the battery?
This phone has a whopping battery and for most is more than adequate for daily use,unless your awake 24/7,then your a zombie maybe.

[COMPARISON] Dash Charge, Qualcomm QuickCharge, Normal Charge

Good morning guys...
I am really impressed with the new pattern that OnePlus has introduced with the OP3, the DashCharger and its improvements over other patterns, as speed and better heat dissipation.
I do not have my OP3 yet, I live in Brazil and things are a little bit harsh here.. but I bought (imported) one and I am just waiting it to arrive.
I saw in many reviews that DashCharge takes about 1 hour to fill the battery and what I want is: you that already have the OP3 on hands, could give us a feedback about other type of charging
and the time it takes? Can you use a normal 5V1A adapter and another one that implements QC2.0 and post here?
I want that because I have 2 units of QC2.0 charger and with the new OP3 I do not intent to get rid of them if the time to full charge isn't too different and buying the special cable/charger for me (and maybe other)
could not be easy/cheap and maybe it does not compensate!
If no one could do that test, I will perform it myself when I get my OP3... till there, if you could help me, I will appreciate!
Thanks for now and sorry about english!
I have the original charger, but i had a Nexus 6P too, and the 6P used QC 3.0. The OnePlus 3 is charging a bit faster than the 3.0. OnePlus charges 3% in ~3minutes, and the 6P was like that. I think you should charge your phone with the original charger, but in fact you could use QC2 charger i think. Hope i helped (Sorry for bad English)
Thanks for reply,
I would like to know how many time does de OnePlus take to charge from 0 to 100% with Original DashCharger, a QC2.0 and a normal charger... if you could tell in minutes (average)
I have the HTC 10 and the OnePlus 3. The OnePlus 3 is drastically faster than the HTC 10 with Q QC 3.0. I remember walking away frm my OP3 for like 10 minutes, it had charged about 20%. In abut 30 minutes it's at 63% and my HTC 10 is at 44%. My OP3 fullyharges in about 72-74 minutes, my HTC 10 is aound 1 hour, 40 minutes.
74 min?
i get a rate of 2% per minute charge.
50min for full battery

QC3.0/3.0 is also much more heavily affected by heat (and as such, using the device), whereas Dash charging is not since heat is dissipated at the charger itself instead of at the phone.
a bit harder to find dash charging accessories though..... at least right now

It doesn't matter, download an app called Ampere and check the intensity, it charges with ~4A for the first ~30 minutes and then lowers down to ~2A.
Conclusion: It charges super fast only first 30 minutes and then it slows down.

I'm very familiar with it. My point is dash/quick charging is purposed for when your phone is near 0 and you're in a hurry, it will get you as much as it can as quick as it can but with lithium ion batteries it's causes too much damage to go all the way to 100%

Well that, and naturally all batteries tend to slow as they charge, not to prevent damage but just the way they work. The reason it's "0-60 in 30 minutes" and not "0-100 in 50 minutes" is that after 60, all modern phone batteries tend to cap off.

I had a 6p before I bought the op3 and I totally disagree. The 6p took 45mins to 1hour longer to charge, of course the battery was a little bigger but it was much slower for sure.

My Note 7 Updated today!!! sh1t!

Anyone else had the same thing?
Just woke up. Noticed my N7 updated itself somehow. I had everything OFF, least i thought i was. May be i have missed something. Still wondering how it updated in the first place. It has not done so in months.
Now the phone will not go higher then 60%. Dammit. Wireless charge time seems to be slower. 50%-60% in 22min
For now, im still keeping n7.
UPDATE: Yesterday was able to fix all. Installed the old firmware using Odin and everything works flawlessly. No more popups, no more 60% cap.
Step by step guide is HERE

This is weird. I bought my note 7 directly from Samsung and it's for T-mobile's network. I had an firmware update alone with 60% battery. Mine still charges at 100% though. Am I missing something? The only thing bugs me is the popup screen(battery recall info) when charging.
Mind taking a screen shot of the 60% battery?

Mine was for Rogers replacement version but I never even been on Rogers. Im on FIDO. When phone came out I've requested through roger because i knew it would work on fido as well.
I will take a picture once im below 60. Right now it just doesn't charge. Stays at 67% and the pop ups are old Dark gray color style popups that come on now everytime i put it into charge.

I had an update awhile back which stating charging ONLY to 60% but mine charges fine to 100%.
Check the screen shot.
Maybe that is 100% of a 60% charge? It just discharges faster due to less capacity?

Yeap same here. I was awake saw the phone go into recovery install **** and i was oh f i know wat it is doing.
def sucks, lets see what else pops up.
Were you guys using package disabler pro and still had the update forced to you?
Nothing yet from Verizon in Ohio. I would be perfectly OK if that's all they did and let us keep it.
Something is a bit odd though. The way I read it, the 1rst recall was for over charging after fully charged (charging circuit in the battery never shut off). The second batch has batteries with the layers so close together they could short out and this is what is causing the new round of recalls. I don't see how limiting the charge to 60% would do anything, other than maybe limit the explosion by 40%..
I don't think there's any technical reasoning here. I believe they're just trying to make it annoying for those of us that still have the phone to encourage us to just turn it back in

Bro even though your phone shows charge for 100 % the maximum capacity is limited to 60% meaning it will show 100 but it will only charge 60 % you will feel how fast your battery drains after that

Oneplus 3 battery issue

I ordered my oneplus 3 on 14th june and it arrived on 16th june. For quite a time the battery was working good but from past one month, phones battery has been degrading quite quickly and it takes a littke longer time to charge like earlier is used to take about an hour to charge completely and now it takes 1 hour and 12 minutes plus earlier it used to charge about 75-79% in half an hour but now it charges only 69%
So what ahould I do?

If it was normal then i wouln't have posted it
60% in 30min is common with dash charge.
charging gets slower the more ur charging level already is.
72min for a full charge is pretty good tbh
If i accept that then whats the reason for the degradation of the battery

since ur battery behaves as normal, no.
mine takes with dash
92% (5% to 97%) = 67min
95% (4% to 99%) = 70mins
and so does yours, consider that a different charging level or usage while charging changes the charging behaviour.
even the room temperature might change the charging speed.
Whats the reason behind quick degradation of battery then?

It had nothing to do with battery degradation. Your phone consumes energy a dwell when charging. An empty freshly wiped phone will charge faster then one bombed with apps. Nothing to worry about.

Every post of yours contains the term "battery degradation". But apart from the minor difference in charging time (which seems to be normal), you have not explained what you mean by "battery degradation".
Do you mean to say that your charged battery does not last as long as it used to? Or something else?
