I know it doesn't support quick charge 2.0 but does it take in 2A? Did anyone test it? If it works, I'll get a 2A charger.
Also did anyone get the stagefright fix OTA?
It supports quick charge 2 and 3

The charging current is not relevent, the phone will draw what it needs up to it's maximum rating of the device or power source, current is not "pushed" into a device... Doesn't matter if you have a power supply capable of delivering 500ma or 5000A, as long as it meets the industry standard specs the current rating doesn't matter.

I know the current is not pushed. The stock charger is rated at 1.150A, but the device gets charged much faster with my 1.5A charger from nexus 7. .My understanding is that if the device can't take in 2A, there is no need for a 2A charger. Similarly if it is capable of taking 2A current but the charger has a max rating of 1.5A, it's charged at 1.5A. Both the device and the charger should support it. Now what I'm asking is if the moto g3 is capable of taking in 2A. If it is I'll get a 2A charger.

It will work... I use a 2.2A or 1.8A charger at home and work (I have chargers spread everywhere), never took the stock one out of the package. My car charger is a dual port 2.0A+2.0A charger, works fine there too.
I have these scattered everywhere... I got a box of 10 for $25 on eBay a few years ago, they work beautifully on every device I own:

Can't tell you if it charges faster or not, never used the original one or anything smaller.

TBH, probably not any time soon... I haven't been able to get this thing under 30% yet. Lowest I've had so far is today at 36% battery remaining with poor signal, 15 hours off the charger, and 4 hours screen time. Not sure I can kill it in a day, and I'm working out of town for a stretch and would prefer not to have my phone oos for any time.

From 0% to 100% in 2 hours? That sounds impossible.
actually same here, stock charger 1.15A around 2 hours give or take.
I think in the US, its bundled with a 0.5A charger.. which is why it takes twice as long.. ~4hours...
In India, its a ~1A charger.. takes little more than 2 hours from 0 to 100

What charger should I use? It comes with the wire but no adapter. What voltage should the adapter be as I do not want to ruin the battery of the Moto G.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 and HTC One X charger.
Any USB charger will be fine, they're all 5v. The cheaper ones will have a low mAh though.
Both your Samsung and HTC ones are suitable.
No charger? thats a bummer..
it means that charging time would be varied depending of the source. Not a wise move here by Motorola since people might buy cheap charger and ruined the user experience. Especially when they're targeting 1st time smartphone consumer in less develop country
hmm..
It's going to get more and more common as the world is flooded with USB chargers.
Well not really true... Here in germany every shop adds the adapter to the package themselves. Most of them added a 1000mA one, because it doesnt ruin the battery that fast. You can see that in pretty much every unboxing video. But in fact we e.g already got like 5-6 chargers in our households, so what...

As it would be my first smartphone, I'm looking into the wall plugs. I've found one in my local shop for ~10 euros. It's from Philips, with 5V/10,5W/2,1A and has two USB sockets (that's why it's 2 amps).
My question is, as I've no experience with smartphones, how long would it take to charge from 0 to 100?
With that charger it would take roughly 2 hours to charge your device with 2075 mAh battery.
The Brazilian 16gb dual chip edition comes with a charger.

LOL... I was surprised as well, when got the box (a tiny package similar to iPhone) and found only phone and USB cable inside.
But don't worry, any charger with 1A will do the job, so your chargers from S2/HOX will be OK.

That's nice attitude towards customers...
I am using the old HTC charger (1A),which came with HTC Diamond (has a nice glowing HTC logo ) and its OK. It charges battery fully within 100 minutes when phone is OFF.
Will try also 400mA (Alcatel) to see what's the difference.
I use only branded chargers, as had issues with some cheap aftermarket chargers in the past.

It may depends on phone make/model.
I've used few times 2A charger from Samsung Note 2 and phone/battery become hot and battery didn't lasted long... Also during charge it had hissing sound, so back to 1A chargers and all OK.
I think lower output does charge battery longer, but battery last longer as well...
Will get back when charge with 400mA charger (probably on Tuesday or Wednesday )

I think with pretty much with every Snapdragon chip you get the bundled PM chip, and the last bad experience I had with a Snapdragon was with 8225/q and that was just inaccurate battery reading. I would think anything newer would handle 2a charger just fine.

I only partly agree with you here. Although the Moto G will restrict charging to a maximum of 1500mA, so using a 2A charger will not cause any direct damage to the phone circuitry or immediate damage to the battery; using a higher amperage, fast 2A charger to charge at 1500mA over time will likely cause more reduction in battery capacity. See this XDA post for my logic in coming to this conclusion:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2564158
UPDATE and CORRECTION:
I have more authoritative information directly from Battery University that changes the conclusion I draw above based on my effort to extrapolate from the Battery University website article.
The extrapolation I did in the post listed above was based on the additional loss of battery capacity cited when going from a 1C to 2C charging rate. But according to direct communication from Battery University, when charging at a rate below .7C there should be no measurable improvement to capacity by using slower charging rates. Charging above .7C would still be expected to add more stress to Lithium Ion Polymer batteries and likely add to long-term reduction of capacity.
So, what this means for the Moto G and Nexus 5 is that there should be no measurable difference between charging with 2A, 1.2A, 1A, or 850mA chargers as far as effect on long-term battery capacity goes. Both the Moto G and Nexus 5 are supposed to automatically restrict the charge rate at 1500mA even when using a faster charger, which is just at or below .7C for both phones. So, as long as the charger dependably keeps to 5V, a higher amperage 2A charger will be faster but pose no problem to long-term capacity.
I read a post here and I didn't quite understand which charger should I buy for a quick charge.
Appreciate the help.
The one that came with the phone.
The phone will only take in what it needs.
This phone charges the fastest I have ever witnessed on AC obviously.

All (good) USB chargers are going to charge at the same 5V as the Nexus 5 charger. Any charger from another phone will work without issue, but if it's under 1.2A it will charge more slowly (many are 1A). Just don't buy a cheap, poorly made charger and you'll be fine.

The major assumption here that a slower charge leads to a higher run time is not true.
http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/charging_lithium_ion_batteries
A slower charge leads to the saturation charge phase taking less time while the constant current phase takes longer. The battery in the Nexus 5 and the accompanying 1.2A charger is meant to give you the quick 70% charge that is discussed in the BU article and then trickle charge during the saturation charge. If you're charging overnight it doesn't matter which method you use, you'll still reach 100% around the same time and the runtime will be the same.
Tnx everyone, I have the original chargr but I lost is cable.
I tried many cables but that just are not fast enoug.

Fine means how long it takes you to charge from 0 to 100%. From where you bought the mobile? Since all moto g chargers should behave similarly.
I want the moderator to ban me.
Yee.Even at the first time until 8 hours.
What is the charger output? 4 - 5 hours seems like 500 mA or even less. If you use 2A charger, its gonna be at 100 % in an hour.
And a note - some cables cannot take high currents, like 2A. So be sure to use a really short or good cable as well.
To sum it up - the charging time does not depend on the phone, but rather on the charger.

Here in India, moto g is shipped with a charger with output of 55ma which does take 4-5 hours for a complete charge. Buy a better charger if this thing concerns you or charge it overnight or you may else be having chargers lying at home
The charger that came with this MotoG is white, made in India and rated at 550mA (0.55A). Tried it once and put it back in the box. Zero to 100% in 2 hours using a 2A Nexus7 charger. I have a 1A that I'll probably use after I get into a routine with my new MotoG.

If the stock Indian charger outputs 550 mA and the battery capacity of the Moto G is 2070 mAh, there´s no way you are going to charge it in three hours. You do the math...
Update 7th May 2016:
I've tested the replacement but it isn't the same model, the new one has 1 QC 3.0 + 1 IQ port instead of the original 2x 3.0. It's this one
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B01ALQWQFO/
This one is performing as I'd expect from 3.0 with multiple voltages between 5v & 9v & 1A with screen on whatever the temp.
They have now amended the product description of the original to highlight incompatibility with LG G5.
Update 3rd May 2016:
Quick update. I have been contacted by the seller & they say that, whilst the charger does meet QC 3.0 certification, they have identified that the "PD" chip is incompatible with the LG5. They have a new version they are sending me that should rectify this. I'll post an update once I've tested.

It says QC 3.0 on the charger but it is actually 2.0
Measured with an online voltage meter, it is only charging my LG G5 with 9v whereas my other QC 3.0 chargers output around 6v. Now this won't make much difference with screen off, with both charging at similar 3A rate, but when screen on, the 3.0 chargers output 1A but this only manages 0.3-0.6 depending on device temperature, exactly the same behaviour as other QC 2.0 chargers I have.
If you've bought 1 & it says 9v ish on a volt meter or you don't get 1A when screen on, it's not QC 3.0

I was hot swapping several times between this & another 3.0 car charger. Without fail the other performed exactly as my AC QC 3.0 chargers & this just like my 2.0 ACs. In terms of mAh & voltage.

Mine arrived and checking with Ampere app on my LG G5 one port is giving me about 1400mA which is about correct. The other port read MUCH lower between 50mA to 550mA, that is waaaaaay to low.
My Nexus 6P though not a QC 3.0 still give me much higher reading in one port vs the other. I know Ampere isn't super accurate but the difference is too big.
I'll have to try again tomorrow.

I like Anker but haven't seen a dual car charger where both ports are QC 3.0 or a USB type see port and an QC 3.0 port.
So I did a quick test last night. I decided to ignore the Ampere reading and just charge my LG G5 from about 30 minutes (31 minutes actually). My G5 went from 49% to 89% in 31 minutes while simultaneously charging my Nexus 6 P (not A QC 3.0 device) from 43% to 62% in the same 31 minutes.
so it appears to work in actual use. I'll have to try again soon, but for now I think I'm ok with it and will trust my results more than the reading from the app.

In those circumstances you won't see any differences between QC 2 & 3.
A couple of ways to spot the difference
1. With an in-line voltage meter the QC 3 will output at various volts between 6&9v. The QC2 will show just 5 & 9v
2. With screen on & phone temp above 35c (to a lesser extent 32c) the QC2 will charge significantly slower than QC3
Sent from my LG-H850 using Tapatalk
Another update. I was running a stress test to warm the phone for more comparison & this charger couldn't even provide a net positive charge. When I swapped to another 3.0 (review up soon ), I was getting 1Amp charge again.
The extra voltage steps in QC3 definitely are a big advantage when phone under heavy load.

3C reports 3A to about 60% then gradually tails off.

Can anyone confirm that quick charge or LG fast charge only activates when batt is below 10% and fast charges it to 80% then normal charging happens up to 100%. I read that somewhere. Charging with the stock LG I expected it to be fast. But that was charging from 22%. I had to chance to charge from 5% and in 15 mins it was up to 30%.

As stated above, the percentage your phone is currently at shouldn't matter. The phone and charger will determine the best voltage and Amperage at witch to charge depending on current charge levels and temperature.
If you're batter is already at a high level it will slow down the charging to properly "fill" up the battery safely.
Having to be under 10% is ridiculous. I try to never let my phone get below 40% if possible, much less 10%.
Quick update. I have been contacted by the seller & they say that, whilst the charger does meet QC 3.0 certification, they have identified that the "PD" chip is incompatible with the LG5. They have a new version they are sending me that should rectify this. I'll post an update once I've tested.

I have imported my Huawei and I absolutely love the phone. Since it is an import it came with a UK Type fast charger. I simply used a wall adapter and powered it over the US current. Well, that fast charger isn't working what so ever - after 2 hours I only go to about 35 percent from 0. I have used my Note 7 charger to charge it, and there the charging times are much faster. Any ideas on what, if anything, I am doing wrong and maybe where I can buy a working Huawei charger. I can't return the charger since I bought the phone over Amazon and it strictly came with no warranty. It is not the end of the world if I can't use the included charger I just want to see how fast this phone truly charges.
Either this post is a joke or someone sold you a non supercharge Huawei charger. Also are you using both the charger and charging cable that came with the phone in the box. It's white with purple in the USB A area
Here from 10 to 80% in 45 minutes
Same here. I find the first 80% to be lightning quick and then it slows to a "normal" charging speed for the last 20%.
Must be something wrong with your charger or cable.

Using the european adapter, not the UK one, but charging is lightning fast for me as well.
hi
the orginal adapter and cable
i charge from 0% to 90% in about 55 minutes, the last 10 % are slower maybe 30 minutes to full

Mine took almost 2 hours from 48% to 100%. I'm using Original Huawei charger.......
Install ampere and see what the milliamp charge rate shows as. When the battery is almost dead it should charge at just under 5 amps and will slowly decrease as the battery level increases.
Mine typically goes from 0 to 65% in half an hour, then 90% around half an hour on top of this. The final 10% takes almost another hour.

Well there is obviously something wrong with your charger, cable or phone. I would guess the first two.
Mine turbocharges in a few minutes. I've been using fir about a year now.
Could be that an "European" charger intended for 220 volts does not provide rapid charge when plugged into a 110 volts wall plug. I have for example an electric toothbrush I bought here in Europe and it refuses to charge on a 110 volt system when using an adapter. Maybe see if you can buy an OEM charger intended for the US?
There are 2 different chargers that are official, there's the supercharge one that comes bundled with the phone which I guess everyone is using and is getting great charging speeds... (Gotta use both the charger and the cable)
And then there's the fast charger which is pretty slow compared to the bundled charger.
The next time you wanna travel abroad make sure you buy a supercharger for that regions type of socket.

If you buy a replacement make sure it actually says SuperCharge on it.
