Just bought the Nokia DT-900 wireless charger. Works fine with Nexus 4 Rev_11. Just search YouTube for correct placement of Nexus 4 on charger plate (Need to leave a gap of around 1/2 inch from bottom of charger)
I started charging when battery backup was around 67% . At first it seems to charge (i.e. battery settings shown as wireless charging) but the charge does not increase and remains stuck at 67% for quite some time (around 15-20 mins). After that it charges and goes upto around 97%. Then seems to be stuck at 97%, then goes all the way to 100%.

How long does it typically take to fully charge your phone from about 30% or so? I have noticed that it takes really long to charge, I have had mine on charge for 4 or 5 hours and its only at 88%.
Usually about 3 hours here.

Same, I would say about 3 hours.
I'm going to let it run down and time it. Something is definitely not right. If I put it charging when I go to bed it is not fully charged by the time I wake up.
Thread moved to Q&A.
Well the default charger is 0.15A right ?
I am using my Galaxy Tab's charger which is 2A and i get a full charge in like 1 hour.
The charger that came with it is a .7A I am using a 1A though.
I think I might have found the problem. The app "craigsphone" installed a service that was using 79% cpu. I tried killing it and it would come back. So I uninstalled it, now just have to test out to see if it charges faster.
I bought my phone on it's release day, and up until about a week or two ago, it's taken a VERY long time to charge up -literally all night long. But for some reason, it seems to have started charging faster here recently. It now only takes about 3 hours to charge up, from being near completely dead. I don't understand why this has apparently happened, but I'm not complaining lol.
-of course, I'm speaking of charging via the included wall charger. USB charging still takes all night for me
ikarma,
it depends on your charger.
I have 2 chargers:
- Original from HTC Desire
- Unknown brand
Both produce output 1000 mA (1A).
The time to charge from 4% to 100%:
- HTC charger = 4 hours
- Unknown brand = 6 hours
Here what I have done to this finding:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=917075
So again, it depends on your charger!
Probably my unknown brand does not really produce 1000 mA.
Bottom line, there are different quality chargers out there! Choose wisely

Wow, I'm dreaming of 1 hour...
Let me know where to buy such charger?
My default charger needs 4h15Min
Hi guys, just realised my Nexus S takes pretty long to charge up.
Hoping for more users to come in and share ur charging time and also to check ur charger whether it's rated at 0.7mA for output?

How long is "pretty long"? Mine takes around 3 or 3 n a half hours usually.
But when I used my iPod's wall charger it was comparatively faster. iPod's is 1mA.
my wall charger is 5v/0.7a, takes around 3-4 hours for a full charge, but i leave it to charge overnight ready for the morning so not 100% sure
after charged to 94-95%, stay with display on and will charged to 99-100%

Define the "pretty long" term.
All Nexus S's come with the 0.7A wall charger. So the math is the following:
1500mAh / 700mA =~ 2h - DC current
1500mAh / 500mA = 3h - USB plug
So it should take aprox. 2 hours for a full charge with the wall charger, 3 hours with USB connection. That's theoretically speaking.

at least 4 hours on the wall socket.
Mine takes around 4 hours too. My Captivate runs circles around my Nexus S while charging. But the battery on the Nexus tends to last longer running the same programs. Both have 1500mAh.. Weird.

About four hours from 1% to full via wall socket. Give or take a little.
I use Battery Monitor Widget to track what is going on during charging. To avoid blowing up the battery, the charging circuit pulses the battery with current and a different profile appears to be used on USB as opposed to AC. I tried a heavy duty USB wall brick and it made no difference (1000ma/H) - the GNS still reports on USB charge so the AC wall charger has a wiring difference to USB. Some say the data lines are shorted on the AC charger telling the GNS that it is plugged directly and flagging the higher charging profile.
Basically the AC circuit takes about 3 - 3.5 hours and the USB circuit can take 4 - 5 hours. USB plugs are limited to 500 mA (or USB 1.0 used to be so I am concluding that USB 2 is the same). Anyone know different ?
The 97% charge limit seems to be the circuit limiting overcharge of the battery and if when fully charged you disconnect the charger and immediately reconnect you can squeeze an extra 2 - 3 % in to the battery. Mine reports 99 or 100 after such a cycle.
To make sure your GNS battery circuit is fully calibrated run the fone completey FLAT once in a while (50 charge cycles). This makes sure it knows what is flat and what is full. Before I did that it could take 4 - 5 hours or more to charge. After flat cycling, it is quicker. Use Battery Refresh Beta (maybe full version now) from the Market to flatten the beast........
All this assumes the stock 1500 mA battery pack. Anything else (1400 cheapies labelled 1600 or a fat 3200) will be different.
This is in stark contract to my XOOM which doesn't pulse at all but simply wacks 1500 mA in to the battery until it is full. Maybe heat disappation is not such an issue on the XOOM. I can't imagine the battery techology is much different but I don't know for sure.

Thanks very much for the info!
Battery jumps from 11% to 22% once plug
I left the battery drain to 11%, well I did not want to put in on charge in the evening and left it till in the morning. As the title says, once plugged in for charging, the battery charging percentage suddenly jumped to 22%, than charging normally, a bit faster because I am using usb wall charger taken from Lumia 520, AC16X.
I removed it and used the usb cable that came with the phone, I do not think that is the problem with the AC16X, just charges faster
And one more thing, last time when I charged the phone to 100% I left it to see when stops charging, I mean, In spite of being charged to 100% still shown charging on the battery diagram window.
I left it 30 more minutes but nothing, I expect to see the word charged, but no, keeps showing charging…
It is normal?
Thanks.
Ok, so I have my Nexus 5 for about 8 months, but the charger that came with it doesn't work properly anymore.
Just after I got it, and few months later, the charger worked pretty well, and I also have a small amp meter that is connected into charger's usb port to measure Volts, amps and mAh, and when new, it pushed about 1.7 amps of current (it is rated to 1.8), and charged the phone in about hour and a half from 5% to 100%. Right now, the charger gives only 0.4-0.5 ams of current and charging time varies from 3 to 3.5 hours!
Has anyone experienced this problem?
Is an LG G2 (2.2amp) or G3 charger safe to use, as I tried G2 before and it charged the battery in less than an hour, without heating the device.
Also, I frequently leave my charger plugged in wall socket all day long, and it's plugged in without using more than it is plugged out (just when carrying it somewhere). Maybe that's why it degraded over time...
Hi all, I buy a fast wireless charge from anker on amazon and I wold this know if my device is working right or is damage. I monitor the temperature and I see that on standard cable (no fast) the temperature stay on 26 °C and with wireless charge (no fast) stay in 34 °C and stay this temperature with 100% charge too. Is normal or when arrive to 100% the temperature must go down?
It should go down and cool completely when charging is over (at least thats how my s7 acts with choetech wireless charger, also using slow charging). Just give it some time after it reaches 100% (10 minutes or so).
Mine keeps being warm after a night on the wireless charger, so i guess charging doesn't stop automatically?
(just have my s7 for two days so that's something i have to look at)
I don't like it being warm as long as it is on the charger.
(samsung charger, that refuses to go to green color when it should finish, it stays blue)
Ok thanks I'm go to change my wireless charge with other model
I have the anker fast charge model (first photo)
And I would to buy the yootech model (second photo)
All see on amazon
edit:
added photo
I have the fast charge Choetech Wireless charger, and the temperature stay high at 100%, between 32 °C et 35 °C.
To solve this , kinda extreme, i bought a WeMo Switch operated by Tasker. One profile that turn off the Wireless charge 15 minutes after the battery come to 100% and another profile that start the charger between 0% and 95%.

Choetech quick wireless charger, using slow charge. This morning, phone as cold as it wasnt on the charger at all. (Cooltool at the top of the screen measures phone temperature)
I use the Anker quick charge wireless charger to charge my phone over night on quick charge setting. Phone is cold to the touch in the morning when I wake up and at 100%. I do have a case on but no heat detected from charger or case when I wake up.

good, i hope new model don't give me the same problem
First charme with new wireless charge and I can confirm that the temperature stay the same little warm so I think is a normal temperature. This model is better then other is little more big and I can place more easily to start receive energy
