[Q] Desire S takes longer too charge - HTC Desire S

My HTC Desire S is taking 4-5 hours from 10-10% charging, I am using TC U250 adapter to charge my phone and it also takes to much time when charging from 95% to 100%,can some one explain me this,

are you using the native HTC charger? if you use it, there shouldn't be such a problem.

I contacted HTC about that, they said its normal.

True story it is normal! I need 3 hours for full charge from 0-15% to 100%

You have some Roms that charge in 1 hour very fast

it depends on charging current, original htc charger is 1A

Hi,
It can take that long sometimes.
For me its all the time . After 50% charging takes forever

If I completely discharge my phone, it usually takes anywhere between 4 and 5 hours to charge it back up to 100%. This is assuming that I do not use the phone as it is charging.
Same on my Sensation. But I´ve heard from People, they charge in about 2-2.5h...
Its crazy somehow
The fastest method is to turn off phone and charge it. But it also depend from charger to charger. For example I had a faulty usb cable and phone never did charge while powered on. I discovered faulty cable with "CurrentWidget". It displays in mA current charging. It was always drawing power from phone. After changing cable it was charging.
Conclusion is higher mA the charging is faster...
What blue-yu said, to a point.
The wall charger that came with my phone is faster than using the usb cable.
Also, powering down the phone so its doing as little as possible while its charging will help.

Yes. A USB port on a computer is limited to 500ma. The wall charger can output 1000ma (double the USB).

I have noticed with generic charges, it can take between 3-5 hours as well. With a OEM HTC charger, it usually takes me about 2 hours from 10% to 100%.
I have found on market 2000 mA charger. Since HTC recommend max 1000 mA, is it safe to try the oem charger?
I use wall charger original what comes in sensation box. On pc battery monitor says i need 8 hour charge . Starting to think something is wrong. Before i was desire s and that charging from 10-100% in like max 2 hours

Official chargers connect the 2 data pins together to let the phone know it is connected to ac so it draws the full 1000ma if data pins are not shorted the phone will think its connected to USB and only draw 500ma
Use a battery app to check if your charger is registering as ac and drawing the full amount
"Battery mix" is an example of an app that will tell you
the aftermarket battery (chichitec) that i'm using has been chargign up considerably faster than the stock one. it also provides a lot more usage time.
On my mains 550ma SE microusb charger it takes me approx 3hrs from 0-100% , or 4hrs from notebook usb, according to battery monitor widget pro.
John.
I usually charge my phone to full after it drops below 30%.
It always takes my Sensation 2.5 hours via wall charger.
It seems the battery charging time as well as boot up time has something to do with the recovery you use.
With Clockwork mod recovery, my bootime was 7-8 minutes (I tried clearing cache partition and all, with fast boot disabled) and battery charging use to take 5 hours.
Since two days, I have installed default recovery and now my boot time is about 1 minute, and charging time is around 2-3 hours. This time also, i have fast boot disabled and cleared cache partition after installing the recovery.
Can anybody else do this experiment and let us know the result here?
Dunno about recovery and bootup. Bootup for me is about 25-35 sec from cold boot, 4ext touch recovery. I will try that ap from amrket and i will see if there is something

Look for an older Nokia charger with micro usb. I've got one from an old phone and it charges my sensation from close to 0 to 100% in under 2 hours.

The higher the mAh output, the faster it'll charge. If your battery is 1900mAh, and you have a 750mAh DC output, it'll take 2.53 hours to charge (roughly). The best you can usually find is around an amp, 1.0 mAh, and that'll charge it in a little less than two hours. I'm using a MiFi charger with 1.05mAh, works pretty good. You can find out what a charger's DC output is by reading it's label.
i have an ipad charger and it's alot faster than the charger that cam out with my phone
i think it's 2.1A or something

I use my iPad 3 charger and don't notice any significantly faster charge times.
The phone will only accept a 1A charge period.

The thing you need to look out is your output current. Recommended output is 5V 1A, it will still charge if you go higher like 1.5A or even 2.1A. Otherwise, it would not charge just like your situation. Hope it helps.

Impressed with Qualcomm Fast Charge 2.0

Thought I'd give my thoughts on the Qualcomm Quick Charger 2.0.
Just received the HTC One M9 yesterday.
After a full charge with the stock charger, I had it running for 13 hours without charging.
Woke up this morning and noticed that it had dropped to 34% so I decided to try the Qualcomm Quick Charger 2.0.
Wow! Impressed how fast it went to 100%! Actually I had my doubts about it going 60% in 30 minutes, but it does seem legit.
In my opinion, it is worth well purchasing, specially if you suddenly find yourself with no power left and in need of charging it fast!
Attached battery history (sorry, in Danish )

Should mention that it dropped to 34% due to heavy usage. Its actually quite good in my opinion, keeping power compared to my old HTC One M7

I got the CHOE brand Quick charge and it is indeed very impressive. What Ticks me off is that's the charger that should have been in the box with the M9. That's poor of HTC to flaunt a much better charger on their website after shipping out the normal ones to their loyal customers.

I don't have the M9, but from unboxing videos it looks like HTC included the Quick Charge 1.0 charger with the phone. Looks very similar to the one that came with the M8. But I agree, with the M9, HTC had NO excuse not to include a Quick Charge 2.0 charger.
I was wondering if you guys knows if the actual charger of my Nexus 6, could be compatible with the HTC One M9 ?
As it's not included in the M9's Box... If i can keep my actual one, that'll be great !
I've bought this charger too, very happy with it! Charged +88% in 68 minutes

How long it takes to charge from 0~100 ? less than 2 hours ?
My phone said 5 more minutes till full charge when I unplugged it and made the screenshot in the previous post, so I guess full charge from 0 to 100% will take less then one and a half hour. I'll give it a try soon.

No , just to know if there worth difference before buy it
Just so everyone knows, fast charging a Lithium batter would work best going from 0 to 70-80% any more than that the battery charges really slow, that's just how chargers are designed for lithium tech.
Example, from 0% if the charger is giving out 2Amps, then as soon as it reaches a high point of 80% the power output goes down from 2Amps to around 1Amp, and so on it keeps declining as the battery get higher.
Does this work with any good quality micro USB cable?
Quick Charge with Verizon phone?
Has anyone with a VZW M9 had any great success with a quick charger? And if so, what have you used?
I have the Tenergy Fast Charger, and it is faster than the charger that came with the phone, but it's definitely not super fast. We're talking just slightly over 1% per minute.
This makes me wonder if Verizon has somehow limited quick charging with this phone such that any charger I try is going to be met with limited success or if I should indeed try a different charger.
Is anyone else having trouble getting the fast speed? I have a T-Mobile variant and it seems to be only getting about 1% per minute as well. At 60% charge, it estimates that there is about 50-60 minutes remaining to completion.

I have the same one and it will fully charge the phone it a little over an hour. They are quite a bit faster than the stock charger.

Same here, with both Samsung adaptive fast charger and Motorola quick charger from a nexus 6. No idea why, but after using an s6 that charged extremely quickly, it's a little confusing.
I wonder if some of the carrier variants that received the update had the QuickCharge 2.0 functionality disabled. I've tried the Aukey, Anker, Getwow and Onite chargers and they all are not charging at the rated spec.
Quick charge is neat, but it's also destructive for the battery. 95% of the time my phone is only on charge over night, so no need for speed there. I'd rather it have the regular charger for the overnight charge, and maybe having a quick charger for on the go situations.
