Quick Charge 3.0 - Regular USB vs. USB-C - General Questions and Answers

When charging through a Quick Charge 3.0-compatible charger, are there any performance differences if you're using a USB-C charger or one with regular-sized USB ports on it?

[Q] USB fast charge cable

Is it possible to obtain a USB cable for fast charging, i.e. more than 500mAh without modding?
See for example:
S107 S105 USB Charger Charging Cable For Mini RC Helicopter Syma S105/S107 2A
I'm asking because a lot of USB chargers in the range of 1000-2000mAh come with either no USB cable or a standard USB data cable that limits charging to 500mAh.

OK, LG G5 finally was released. Supports quick charge 3.0 and comes with type-c port. Pretty sweet! I had posted a list about the Best Quick Charge 3.0 Chargers from the Famous Accessories Brands on S7 forum. (click here) Sadly S7 doesn't use the type-c port. I decided to buy the LG G5. :highfive:

Anyone know how quick you can go from dead to 100 with quick charge 3 on a USB 3C?
Hi Everyone, I can't wait for the G5, the modular design looks really intriguing, with that being said, I got the http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AAHT62A?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00 in anticipation of the Lg G5, but I have used it on other Quick Charge 2.0 Devices and it is awesome! Smaller and lighter than I expected and the actual battery pack charges fast with a quick charge plug! It is a nice portable pack for anyone looking into buying it!

Nice to see an external pack with quickcharge built in. My solar battery pack probably doesn't have that, but it'll do for now.
I want to use the phone at once!!

My question is will the stock out of box G5 charger cable work between the phone and my laptop. I've been reading stuff about a 75 resistor and I'm confused.
I also thought the stock charger was in fact a QC 3.0 charger.

Stock cable works fine with my laptop. As far as the stock charger, it is QC 2.0 not 3.0. Not sure why LG did that.

So you can transfer files, photos etc to/from the G5/laptop with no issues with stock cable? I thought the cable had to have some type of 75 ohm or something resistor in it so that it does not mess up the computer and its USB port?
I just do backup on my pc lg bridge with stock cable

Here's the power bank I picked up:
http://www.amazon.com/Qualcomm-Cert...&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00
RAVPower 20,100mAh with QC 3.0, USB type C, regular iSmart USB port. so it can charge regular speed charging devices, Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 (and backward compatable to 2.0/1.0) and USB-C fast charging. Pretty much have all you bases covered. So I can charge my G5 and Nexus 6P at their full rate.
Also it can charge using QC 3.0 (if you have a QC 3.0 charger) to charge the huge 20,100mAh in about 4.5 hours.
I am looking for powerstation which can Charge LG g5 and second battery in Quick Charge Mode.
Anbody an idea?

Charging speed with 3rd party chargers?

So my stock charger no longer works and I'm looking for a few replacements.
If I buy USB-C to 3.0 chargers, what is the difference for charging speed?
How about if I buy a Micro-USB to USB-C adapter?
USB type-C fast charging works differently from say Qualcomm quick charge and USB type A can't handle USB-C power draw for fast charging. So to get the best, safe charging speed you need a good type C-C cable and a 3A USB C AC charger. Or you can use any regular USB A ac charger but with a good USB A-C cable that has a 56KΩ pullup resistor. However, it won't charge as fast.
Pretty much what HueleSnaiL said.
I have a 2.5A output USB A charger in work that I use. It is quick but not as quick as the usb c Charger I received with my phone.
Its worth spending the extra cash and getting a true replacement for the charger you had.
Can you link to the OEM charger?

Is your device under warranty? I'd contact manufacturer or the place of purchase(Google?).

Type C cables that Charge Rapidly.

Hi I got a 6P a while back I'm useing my Nexus 6 charger/adaptor an I notice that when I plug a white cheap USB to type c cable to my phone it says Rapidly charging..So I ordered 2 Spigen USB 3.0 to type C cables an when I plug them into my Nexus 6 adaptor it says just Charging but seems to charge fast..I also ordered a Cheotech Faster charger that came with a USB to type C cord an when I plug it in it says just Charging if I use that cheap White type C cable with the Cheotech charger it says Rapidly Charging..Very weird..So I'm wondering even tho it says just charging is it still Rapie charging fast.My wife hooks up here S7 edge to the Cheotech an it says Rapidly Charging..

USB-A to USB-C won't fast charge your 6P. You need a USB-C to USB-C cable and a USB-C charger capable of fast charging at 5V/3A.
I suggest you take a look at Benson Leung (engineer at Google) on Google+ or over at Amazon for an approved charger and cable.
I personnally have the Choetech USB-C charger and the USB-C to USB-C cable for travelling and it works perfectly.

It says fast charging if charging over 2A I believe. This is "fast" charging, but USB-A only goes up to 2.4A. Full USB C to USB C will allow 3A of charging speed. You shouldn't have bought that charger or cable.
Get a Type C charger and Type C to C cable. Anker makes good, stylish cables as well.

Mine only says charging at 2.4A. I only achieve fast charging at 3A. It's a 20-30 mins difference to full charge. Not a big deal.

Qualcomm Quick charge works, sort of?

Using the charger tool that can be accessed with the *#800# dial codeI I have noticed that some old chargers that support Quick Charge 2.0 or 3.0 can quick charge my OnePlus 8T. I didn't expect this after reading that earlier OnePlus models didn't support Quick charge at all.
It quick charges with 18W 9V/2A or slightly less when the battery is not too charged already. I use a standard USB-A to USB-C cable for this. The phone only says "charging" but it is definitely a lot quicker than standard USB 5V charging. Charging always starts at 5V and switches to 9V after a while (less than 30 seconds).
I also get 18W 9V/2A charging with a USB PD charger and a USB-C to USB-C cable. In this case the phone says it is charging fast. I have not managed to get it to charge with more than 18W using USB PD.
With a (powerful) charger that doesn't support Quick Charge or USB PD the phone charges at 5V with only 0.5-0.8A current which is surprisingly low.
Does anyone know what charging standards that OnePlus 8T officially supports?
I was not able to reproduce your behaviour. Cannot get to charge faster than 10W with USB A cables or 6-7W with USB C cables. All of this was performed with various charger that support both QC and PD.
