I Know that our phone isnt coming with the rapid charger, so I decided to investigate a little about it.
The HTC rapid charger have an output Max of 1.67A but it cost about 34.99$
Im coming from Galaxy Note 4 that came with qualcomm 2.0 technology quick charging.
Its the same tech of our device, but at 2.0A
I decided to give it a try to samsung charger to see what happen. With the charger that came with the M9 to charge from 66% to 100% in about 49 minutes. With the samsung one took about 20. Less than half time. The phone give me a message that its slow charging and need htc original charger, but indeed it charge faster.
Im sharing my findings if anyone wants to give it a try. Sorry for my english, its not my first language.

I lost the charger that came with the phone so got myself another charger. This new charger takes a hell of a long time to charge the phone, takes around 3-4 hours to get a full charge. I see that the Current rating is a pathetic 0.7A.
Could anyone let me know what is the Ampere rating of the charger that came with the phone? I'm thinking of buying a 2A charger for quick charging, anyone using such a charger and will that be safe? Thanks in advance for the answers!
It's 0.7A too.

just saying because i have a 0,7 and it takes too much but charging my optimus g that requieres a lot more power charges perfectlry with stock samsung charger (with 0.7 the optimus doesnt even charge not even a bit)
Just bought a new nexus 4 and I've noticed it takes an age to charge anyway I found another two chargers at home and on one of them it says fast charger and the cable is a lot thicker and the other is just another charger but its made by motor rolor.Now when I plug the fast charger in it says its going to take 30mins less than the original charger to complete and when I plug the motor rolor in it about 15 mins quicker than the original charger .my question is would i be doing any harm to my battery if I use the other chargers and should I just keep using the original one.

You Can Use Any Charger

Hi I've been using the fast charge motor rolor charger and its actually taking 2 hrs quicker to charge my phone .now I haven't had a phone for a while my last device was a galaxy s2 and I'm sure it never took over 3hrs to fully charge.so I'm thinking maybe the nexus original charger was charging far to slow anyway.any thoughts on this? Thanks again
Find a fast charger, any recommended?
Stock from HTC direct (Digital River) works well.
I own the Aukey Quick Charger, which also works pretty well with the M9:

I use the samsung fast charger from the note 4 or s6 and use the motorola brick from the nexus 6. I recommend the nexus 6 brick.
I will receive my techmatte quick car charger and keedox quick wall charger tonight, will let you know

That's the same one I use in my office. Works well.
I use the charger from my old Droid Turbo at home.

I just got one of those too, and it's great. Wish it wasn't so big, but it does the job.
I just picked up a couple of Anker dual-USB wall chargers. They have higher amperage (2.4A) than most standard chargers and on both USB ports simultaneously (many dual-USB chargers lower the output when both ports are in use). Between the better charging times, the dual ports and the build quality, I'm very satisfied.
The Anker charger with Qualcomm Quick Charge tech looks even better, but I don't have any experience with it personally.
Show me the link and experience, thanks!

i have the htc rapid charger 2.0 and the aukey rapid charger (+the 10000mah external battery quick charge)
both work really well. if i knew about the aukey. i woulda originally gone for that first
Quick review of the Keedox Quick charger 2.0:
Well it has the official logo of Qualcomm Quick charger 2.0 printed on it but I kinda find it as slow as the stock charger from hTC :crying:
Tested from 45% to 100%
Till 80% it's amazingly fast with 20% every 10min but once over 80% it's slowing down, from 90% to 100% it's extremely slow like 1% every 5 mins
It took 75 mins to charge these 65% while it's supposed to charge from 10% to 100% in an hour (80%)
So we are pretty far from the advertised +70% faster charger.
Take in consideration that I am using Viperom 2.2 for the time being based on 1.40, these Roms are known to have bugs with charging time, so I am waiting for the upcoming Leedroid based on OTA 1.40 Rom to be sure this charger is crap and give a negative review on Amazon.
I am still waiting for my TechMatte car quick charger, my sis still didn't finish to empty her 2 suitcases, girls...
I don't think it's a matter of cable, I am using the same USB 2.0 cable that I used back with the Quick charger of the S6 on the S6, it was charging the S6 from 20 to 100% in 50 mins.

The Aukey quick charger I have does the same type of throttling thing once it gets around that 85% mark. I haven't paid enough attention to my Droid Turbo charger to see if it does the same thing. I figured it was just a safety feature of the Aukey charger.

So these are quick charger only from 0 to 85% !! The S6 stock charger on S6 was also slowing down at 85% but it wasn't that slow, the results were certainly faster.
Again I can't give a definitive conclusion about the Keedox before I try a stable rom based on the official latest OTA

The slowdown at ~80% full is the expected behavior to be easy on the battery. I find the quick charge most valuable when I am about to leave home and I can use the last remaining minutes to cram some juice into the battery. Main charging happens overnight for me without any need to hurry.
The slowdown >90% is behavior I have seen on every phone I have ever owned. It is a safety feature to avoid overcharging the battery. Overcharged li-ion batteries have been known to explode and catch fire, after all.
It may simply be that HTC is more conservative with its batteries than Samsung is.

Hmm ...
Now this makes sense ... Now I get why my charger works lil slower above 85% ...
Updated Viper Rom to 2.3, the Keedox charged my M9 from 34% to 94% in a matter of 35 mins
Thanks!
It looks like the htc m9 is slow with quick charger 2.0 anyway, gsmarena posted a 2h charging time for 0 to 100%.
So my Keedox is not bad after all

I just got this wonderful phone, but there are some mysteries that I would like to get solved. Mostly, they are about charging. I would like to use wireless charging, but most QI chargers only deliver 600-1000 MAh. If it delivers 1000 MAh and the power conversion rate is set by manufacturer to 70%, does that mean that it only charges with 700 MAh?? That way it will take 4.5 hours for it to charge from 0-100%. BUT... my original wall charger shows appx 700 MAh when I check it with the pro version of the app Galaxy Charging Current and the pro version of Ampere. The phone says the phone is done charging in appx 1.5 hours. What decides the rate of charging?? I have tried a LOT of chargers, even the now leftover charger from my Galaxy S4, but they don't charge as fast. Some of my USB wall chargers take over 3 hours to get the job done, and I would like a spare that does it as good as the original. There are som 3 Ampere chargeres on ebay, are any of them any good? Hope to get this clarifyed.

Hi,
Which phone? Kindly provide us the more details.
My phone
What? You are not psychic?? ;=) My bad, I thought I posted this in the Galaxy S7 forum, but must have been sleepy. Like I wrote, it is a Samsung Galaxy S7. Sorry for the slip.
Hello, 4 days ago I bought this new s22 ultra with exynos processor, but it is generating many doubts that the loading of the device I feel that it is going very slow or more than it should be.
It always takes 2 1/2 hours or more to charge 100% with a 47w essenger charger or a Samsung charger that I have from the s10+ which I think is 20w and 3a
Measuring the charging speed in a plant or portable battery that I always have mark at most 20w but never stays at that speed, usually oscillates a lot between 10 and 16w, and stays much more at 10w which makes me weird and annoying because it is very low
I do not know if I should buy a Samsung charger of 25w since from what I have seen the 45w charge does not work, and that charger would be 5A unlike the one I have that is 3A but I do not know if it would make any difference.
I would like to know if it happens to someone else or if it is something normal, this makes me think a lot about changing phones since the charge seems to be very slow.
Please would appreciate any help, I will also leave attached the charging settings I have placed and the measurement I have made with my charger, I serve any advice you have please
Charges fine (inc. super fast) with Samsung charger ex Note 20
I have Samsung (i think 25w charger) and from 10% to 100% Max 1h10 mins
45w charges quick enough

It's a QuickCharge 3. It's an old standard for Snapdragon phones and Samsung S-series before s20. To charge fast You need 45W PPS PD 3.0 charger. PPS is crucial.
If i remember correct samsung 45watt charging is 9v x 5A not 5v x 9A. If you have 3A the maximum you can charge is 27w (9v x 3A) but if your charger is 5v then only 15w (5v x 3A).
Exynos very fast charging battery and I tested 8 hours on TV Pingu

Turn off adaptive battery. It will change the charging speed for battery life savings. It's a new feature but has been making people think fast charging modes aren't working.
