Mi4i charger - Xiaomi Mi 4i

Mi4i features fast charging. Can you suggest a better charger than 5v-2a charger?

Apple iPhone charger shows up as a fast charger for me.

fast charging is supported but the charger in the box is a normal one. (5v2a)
can anyone try out with the proper fastcharge2.0? (9v1.2a)

Donnt have one...would definitely love to get the feedback from someone who tested it first hand!

how do you see it 'shows up' as a fast charger?
are there any indication?

50. Does my Mi4i have Quick Charge feature? If yes, then which version does it support?
A: The Mi4i has Quick Charge 1.0, which explains the slow charging rate some users have been complaining about. The Mi4i takes roughly 2 hours 30 minutes to fully charge for me

And FYI, http://www.gsmarena.com/charge_test-review-1239p2.php
Quick Charge 1.0 was introduced in 2012 and it made use of a 5V/2A charger, which could charge a phone up to 40% faster than conventional 5V, 1A chargers. That boost accounts for a 10W max charging power.

Thus the original 2A charger that comes with phone is the fastest charger supported.

Yeah
Any charger compatible with Qualcomm Fast Charge 2.0 is good for Mi4i . Go for it..........Do verify this before buying

Hi
I have a charger from a broken Umi Zero is a 5v 2,4A, can I use it for charging the mi4i ?
thanks

Hi,
I'm not sure, if Mi4i really support QC 2.0 but the chipset does.

Xiaomi Mi 4c Charging Analysis Part-2
I just bought Tronsmart TS-WC1Q and I must confirm almost the same results as with original Xiaomi charger for Mi4i. Charging current with Tronsmart charger is about 1,44A and voltage is stable about 5,2V. I'm not sure, if I can determine from these results, if its support QC 1.0 or 2.0. Next time I will try to measure the time from 0->40% of battery and compare original and Tronsmart charger. Anyway I think it matters also on the ROM/kernel you are currently using. I'm on RESURRECTION REMIX with Sensei kernel v1.3.2-dev kernel.

I m on cm13, it looks like qc2.0 is supported. I used a China charger (9v1.2a). It charged fully charged up from 0 to 100% in 1hr and 40 min.

i have tried
i have tried qualcomm's fast charging 2 it works well.

How fast is Mi 4i supposed to be? I've bought orico quick charger 2.0 and it does about 1.5 hr to be fully charged. Do I need to install something to make it faster?

Yes this version supports 3.0 quick charging
Is there any official QC 3 charger for Mi Max available in india ? or something from other mainstream phone manufacturers that could be used with Mi Max ?
I am using my old Galaxy Note 4 charging brick with the Mi Max cable included in the box and charging speed is great on both official MIUI ROM or Validus ROM, 2360 mAh
I've been using an Aukrey Qualcomm 3.0 Quick Charger with my mi max; charges it up from 2℅ to 100℅ within 25-30 minutes, which is quite impressive regarding the fact that it bears one of the largest batteries(4850mAh) in the smartphone market.
So, you should opt for this particular one........i guess?
I got Tronsmart and its working great, and it was listed in Qualcomm pdf.
I read about that quick charge 2.0 charges as fast as quick charge 3.0 , the difference is that QC 3.0 allows wider selection of voltages , so the main difference is not speed but compatibility . Does someone using QC 2.0 and what times do you get from 1-2% to 100% ? In my town there is only QC 2.0 on store and i dont want to order online and wait weeks

I guess not much a difference, I am using Quick Charge 1.0 (Galaxy Note 4 charging brick) and the charging speed is decent. So I guess the difference will be very few minutes that is negligible in real life IMO

+1, Using tronsmart QC 3.0 on hydrogen and helium and it works perfectly.
With Tronsmart QC 3.0 : from %30 to %100 in 2hrs and 9min
not like the original charger +heating up+
For me. With the tronsmart w1ct I get 90% with 2 hours charging.. so it's slow

I think you should use stock charger....
Otherwise it will decrease the life of your battery..also can decrease your battery backup..
But the company said it supports fast charging upto 18 watts. And the one I talking about is 17.5 watts charger. Also the stock charger came with smart phone charges very slow 3.30 hour to be fully charged.

It may damage in long term but now a days batteries are designed in such a way that they will suck only power as per there design and architecture. Even if you use 10A charge it may damage but battery will just use the rated power it designed for. It wont accept entire 10A.
You may use 9V/2A charger..if using high rated one, it will just make little difference not charge in half time
Thank you all for your reply and your precious time...
Read this http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries when you'll have 10 minutes like to dedicate on reading these declarations on li-po batteries, to understand better good and bad points that rotates about fast charging personally i never used it, it'd be possible through a custom kernel but in my case, 40-50 minutes to obtain a 40% (that is also what i use daily, more or less...) is more than enough.

Fast battery charging coming with Oreo?

https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/7luq2l/fast_charging_is_coming_on_mi_a1_with_oreo_update/
Don't mistake that for Qualcomm QuickCharge 3.0. That just means it is charging at 5v/2A. The phone already does that when paired with a good charger and cable.

Let's do some calculations
3000mAh battery
2000mA charger
That gives about 1.5hrs or so to charge. If we factor in 20% additional time, just because it slows down the charge rate at about 90% or so, then we come in around 1.8hrs. That's not that far off from what the user noticed, and if the phone is off the whole time during charging, then there is no additional battery use from radio/wifi/apps.
Not to say that they didn't implement some other thing with Oreo but definitely it is not QC 3.0 charging.
its still same.... no change at all

[CONFIRMED] .152 Firmware Update ENABLE QC 3.0 Fast Charging.

EDIT : Confirmed. This phone support QC 3.0 now.
Come a bit as surprise,
Updated my P20 Pro C636 to .152 Firmware,
And noticed right away that now IT DETECT my QC 3.0 battery pack charger as Fast Charge (Two Thunder Icon Appear) and it charge with High Current,
Someone who already on .152 and have QC 3.0 charger in their belonging might want to test it as well.
But anyway, this is good addition for me. Since now i can have one battery pack to fast charging all my phones.
Bellow i attached the picture

By "wall quick charger" is it QC 3.0 ? Or 2.0 or standard fast charger ?
Because this phone wasn't meant to support QC standard to begin with, and supposed only work with Huawei Proprietary Supercharge technology, thats why i quite surprise when it now show it as fast charging when am using my QC 3.0 charger.
How many Thunder icon you see next to the battery when you charge ?
And, are you on .152 as well ?

thx for confirming it
i just checked with voltmeter as well, and it indeed charge on 9V as well
Not to burst the bubble but fast charge through Huawei's own charge gives up to 4.5A, yours only gets 2.5A and that's not fast charge but possible quick charge that Qualcomm uses.

Yes, that i know. LoL
but prior to this, even using QC 3.0 charger will only give me less than 2A, since it only act as normal fast charging,
so, this might be not doing any miracle,
but at least now i know my QC charger will fast my phone faster than it previously does.

That calculation on the screen is innacurate for most of the time. Because it fluctuate often.
And since his battery is on 70 its normal that the charger doesnt supply full current/volt,
That just how it designed.
And you are right,
For most of the case, our phone will be fully charged in around 2 Hrs using supplied charger
Stock Huawei charger includes both supercharged capable adapter, and cable (look for purple ends)
Outputs 2A, 5A, 4.5A
Uhmm that's interesting.
I resumed my old powerbank I used for my old nexus 6p, it's a Tronsmart and it claims to be QC 3.0
Fast charge was working with 6p, I plugged in the p20 pro and I don't get your results.
I'm on c636 152, charge is still normal.
I don't know if the powerbank lies, or the cables, but I tried different ones.
What cable did you use?

QC 3.0 cable or USB PD C to C cable. Both works

How can I update my p20 pro to the latest version while keeping all my data and stuff?
Once I done this I can confirm this for you guys as I have a current and voltage meter which I can use to confirm that it is indeed charging at QC3.0 speeds.

Do anyone know does nex support Qualcomm quick charge 4?
no it does not, i think it just support up to QC 2.0 since they are using their own charging tech
I'd say it supports QC3, my Nex charges from 5% to 100% in about an hour, maybe 80 minutes tops

Yes, please let me know if you discover any differences between stock charger and a QC charger.
people already did it , no matter what quick charge tech, max you can get 9-10w, only with vivo chager can get 20w, doesn't really work with pd or qc4.0
