[Q] Does the N5 support "Quick Charge 2.0"? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

http://www.qualcomm.com/chipsets/quick-charge
This should allow for much faster recharging but I don't seem to have heard ANYTHING about this...

When I recharged my N5 I noticed it recharged super fast if that helps? I checked to see how much it had charged and it was nearly full. Was pleasantly surprised.

That sounds promising! What device did you upgrade from? I'm curious to know what you're comparing this to.

Phone was fully charged from about 10% in around 40-45mins if that helps

37mins to go from 15% to 50% on stock LG shipped charger AC. Phone ON

Takes forever to charge the infuse

Is it just mines or does it take like 4 to 5 hours to charge the battery on this phone... Even either a rapid charger

My first charge also took a long time. Probably close to 4 hours. Hopefully, this doesnt persist.
I must add atleast for me battery life is awesome.
Unplugged @ 8:25am & died by midnight . With heavy use

If anyone here had an Atrix at one point can you say this battery lasts about the same as the Atrix?? I loved the battery on the Atrix, but the phone not so much.

it lasts just as long, if not longer. I don't still have an Atrix to direct compare so this is kind of off feel/memory.
Chika Da China Da Chinese Chicken?
Every phone thread I have looked through states the same thing about all phones like ours.
New phones, wiped batt stats or newly flashed custom roms.
It takes a few cycles for the phone to create near perfect battery stats. It's not so much that it isn't actually charged in an hour or two. We are all looking at "statistics" produced by the software.
We all know how inaccurate software can be at times right Bill G?
Ok but how do u explain battery loss when the device is plugged in and in use...

Check the output of the charger.
So many variables. Wall direct plug charger charges quicker than a USB plug. USB plug charges better than a car charger. Check the 'ma' output and see if its like 500 or so. If so then you are basically charging at an equal or slower rate than the use of the same power.

Battery charge issues

Hello all. I had an issue w/ my proximity sensor so I got an AE. It was defective, so I got ANOTHER AE.
Since I owned my EVO I always get extended batteries. I bought a 2750mah and it worked great. Then it started charging slowly.
I got giftcards to Best buy for my birthday so I got a new on there. (Sedio 3400 I believe)
Now when I try to charge my phone, it will literally take 2 hrs or so to get 15-20% charged.
I use my handset heavily, but w/ my EVO it was like 2hrs = a full charge and all day heavy use got me to a minimum of 25%.
I know LTE is to blame for a little battery drain, but any ideas? Full charge to 30% in like 5 hrs sometimes. Should I order another AE?
I'm on stlck w/ the most current software btw. Thanks.

Are you using an original stock charger? Are u charging through PC?
Battery could be defective..
I was thinking if he was rooted he needed to do battery calibration since he swtiched from stock to extended battery. Clear the stats and start over fresh. Maybe I am wrong, we'll see when we answers when or if he is rooted.

I am stock.
I switch between the HTC charger that came with it and several other after market cables/usb wall adapters.
I try to use plug in outlets as I know the "trickle" method takes forever.
I'm on my 2nd extended battery.

I had alot of issues with charging my Incredible to the point where my phone took 5 hours to charge and 1 hour to drain. No simple answer here but if you root your phone many options exist to fix this battery issue. Recal the battery would be the first option. If you are able Root try that and come back and report.

Yea, note the significant spike at 70%, that was from plugging it in to charge. So you can see the uptick overnight was more gradual

I figured it out.
Or maybe there was some electromagnetic field given off by something that charged your battery? (which I HIGHLY doubt)
Battery meter =| battery charge
The meter reading is only an approximation and can get confused at times. This is why you can see the apparent charge drop 20% or more after a reboot. I can't say as I've ever seen it increase like that but I'm sure it's possible. Something was probably going on in the background that screwed it up.

I agree with iElvis. Its just a metering correction. The voltage didn't actually increase. Just the approximation of voltage to percent battery, which is just a relative number anyway, not a real "measurement".

Dunno bout the Xperia P... It uses the NovaThor chipset unlike ours which uses Qualcomm... This list is of the qcomm devices n hence wont include the XP..
On a side note, the NovaThor chipsets are supposedly said to be power efficient n hence that might be the reason behind faster charging?
Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk 2
Oh, I thought the P used qualcomm as well... Ah well, not that I care, its slow as hell compared to our S anyway
Guys, how long does it take for your HOS to charge from 0 to 100%? I timed mine and it became fully charged exactly after 3 hrs and 15 mins..
Sent from my HTC One S4 using xda-developers app
2.5-3h from 10% to 100%. I never let my hos run out of juice. Its like begging for a softbrick.

So 3 hrs is quite normal.. well i'm only doing the full drain to full charge atleast once a month, is it bad?
Sent from my HTC One S4 using xda-developers app
Yes, thats bad. The S is famous for not wanting to boot once the battery goes flat. Ive experienced it twice myself, resulting in having to fastboot flash the boot.img before the device started again.
Others have experienced similar, but not identical, issues.
The type if issue varies, but we can be quite sure of one thing - letting the battery run flat on the S is a bad idea.
And in general, letting a battery go flat isnt healthy. Its more healthy to start charging it when it hits 10-5% than when it hits 0% and shuts off.
AW: Quick Charge 1.0 by Qualcomm
Nope, thats perfect! Charging when ever it is possible and one charging in month from 20%-30% to full.

mine does charge in about 3 hours too. but i found it very slow? my old phone, galaxy s 1, with a bigger battery ( bought one from ebay with 1800 mah ) charged twice as fast. from 10% to 100% in about 1,5 hrs, even with original 1500mah battery it was that fast ... without that great " quickcharge " feature from qualcom. just wondering why everybody says 3 hours is fast. even a big test site here in germany ( www.chip.de ) said that the hos charge time is slow.
just saying
It take 4 hours to full charge (10% ->100%)

Battery depleting while charging.

Has anyone else encountered this?
While charging, my battery LOSES charge slowly while plugged in. It says its charging though, normally I'd think its a connection issue, but the connection is never dropped.
It seems as though it converges to about 50% if not in use, (e.g. overnight). If at 100%, it will drop to 50%, and if at 0%, it will rise to 50%.
If in use, there's no hope, automatic drop to 0% slowly.
I have tried different chargers, batteries, outlets, etc. I don't think its a software issue, because battery life off the charger is normal. I'm wondering if there is an issue in how the phone ACCEPTS charge. It seems as though that's the only explanation, but I'm not an expert, haha.
Any thoughts?

One is definitely OEM, one looks OEM, but instead of saying "manufactured by SDI" it says something like "Made in Korea, Assembled in China". Very subtle difference.
I don't think it's a battery issue though, I've used those batteries all the time with no issue, then all of a sudden a few days ago the issue popped up.
