I did use some power banks made by this company. And everything was always all right. So in my opinion you can give it a try pal.
I have also a question about original wall charger. Does it support qc 3.0? Or it's just a 2.0 model?

I dont have orignal with me but it should support QC 3.0 because they say that 80 percent charge in 30 minute. How long it take for you to charge your phone fully?

80 percent in 42 minutes. That's why I think it might be qc2.0

On that model the Type c port is QC3, standard usb port is 2.4a.

I ordered anker wall charger witch is on the official qualcomm list of qc3. 0 devices. I'll find out tomorrow if there is any difference.

Looks like LG changed something starting with v10d - 3rd party chargers still fastcharge but you need the original LG cable or all you'll get is slow charge.

Tnx. I change cable with original cable and now i have fast charge with tronsmart charger

I'm using:

http://www.tronsmart.com/type-c-cab...a-+2-0-male-sync-charging-cable-6-feet-1-pack
And Quick Charge 3.0 works, firmware is V10G.

Got this phone without the charger but still have the one from my nexus 6p, will that fast charge it?

I bought a genuine HTC fast charger and ctype usb cable from EBay AU. It works awesome and allows fast charging.

Just for everyone's info, g5 will say fast charge even if you charge it on qc 2.0. There should be some notification saying is it 2.0 or 3.0 , ampere and apps like that meassure only mah, but we need measure V cuz qc 2.0 and 3.0 are not 5v

Is this why apps like gsam do not show correct mA info when charging? I get negative numbers

Maybe, I dont know how they work but I know for sure they only measure mah not V which is important for qc

I was using v10e stock and now im using genisys rom 1.3, i have used: tronsmart qc 2.0 car charger, 3port wall charger, one port wall charger and an Aukey qc 2.0 powerbank with Aukey usb type-c cables, and the fast charging does show up, of course it is not as super fast as stock qc 3.0 charger but its still pretty fast, sometimes if the notification doesnt show up, i just replug the cable and it works again. And mind that quick charge wont work fully with the screen on, as it automatically decreases the charging power due to heating.

Fast Chargers

Any ideas on where to get a UK plug fast charger? I hear the Mate 8 plug works for fast charging.
I guess I won't even be able to find a car charger as well so my old fast chargers are useless now!

I own a Mate 8 and I tried with the quick charger on P9 Lite and it's just charging normal

It's not a feature the quick charge on the P9 Lite. Hardware it's not there...

Oh I thought it was the same as P9 with hisilicon fats charge.but guess not...

Charger included is "slow charge" 1A. Device is capable of 2A (not "fast charge")

I found this
Although the Huawei P9 lite can receive two amps and 10 watts of power from a charger, Huawei includes only a one amp and five watt power supply with the P9 lite, which results in rather slow loading times.

If i understand for proper charging you need 2A charger and 2A capable USB. I ordered from ebay OEM Huawei 2A 5V charger and 2A 5V capable USB (Nikilin) just to test will it work.

Better be safe and use Huawei charger and best cable as you mentioned above

Hi I've ordered a 2.4A charger (ravpower) but with ampere app I see it charges slower than the original one, the same using a 2.4 powerbank
Is this phone compatible with 2.0A charging or you need the original huawei 2.0 charger?
@Bumblecito can you please check how much charges with the mate 8 charger? Thanks

I spend a lot of time reviewing the dmesg output from the kernel and I have often seen mention an "FCC Limit" during charging. It is possible that the kernel is imposing a "limit" to be FCC compliant... Just a thought...

This is what I keep seeing in the log: https://github.com/Meticulus/androi...rivers/power/hisi/coul/hisi_coul_core.c#L2634

What I am seeing and measuring is that mine, the 3GB dual sim model, max current draw is 1.08 Amp.
This is the max the device will charge at no matter what if you connect a quick charge ... even a nuclear powerplant that can provide a billion Amps at 5V as long as the kernel or charging circuit is like now. A bit painful but I find the battery life to be good. Good enough so it won't be a deal breaker.
I've had phones that died while using the GPS in the car and on a charger, this one doesn't if you use a quality charger and cable.

Turbo charger and Charger 2.4a?

So i'm about to buy a new charger for my MXP on Ebay but I was wondering, what is the differences between Turbo Charger and Charger 2.4a? which one of them are gonna charge faster?

Turbo charger will surely charge the phone with Qualcomm QuickCharge
2.4A charger on the other hand, depending on the ports it has. If it has a single usb port then Turbo charging will be enabled, normally these chargers have the Qualcomm QuickCharge logo on them. 2 ports or more means that the 2.4A is divided/shared, so no turbo charging since each port could only provide maximum of 1.2A

Most probably no, unless the charger itself has the Qualcomm QuickCharge certified logo.

I use the 18w anker qc 3.0 charger from Amazon, along with a 3m nylon anker USB cable, my Max Prime 128gig charges 0-100 in just over 120mins, The anker plug is 9.99gbp and the cable is 6.99gbp

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

It's sadly true, like the FM Radio available but not easily accessible from app

On my OnePlus charger (5v, 2000 mA), my phone draws 1930 mA on average with Oreo (which is significantly higher than the 900~ mA it did on N).

It did 2000ma with in box charger in my N

Try with a QC compatible cable from a friend or something... And I assume. You are already having the Oreo beta build?
Can I try to flash Oreo with the UpdateEngine magisk module or should I wait for official release?

I think it might be since it can handle the 5v 2amps charging with the original brick that came with the mobile. QC v2 just uses variable (5v/9v) voltage to quickly charge a mobile without needing to go higher than 2amps.

I watched a video on YouTube where that guy tried charging the phone with a quick charger but it didn't work...
It still took 2 odd hours to charge completely

Not on Oreo yet but we need a baseline using the same hardware setup for testing on Nougat before we can have any reliable data on Oreo to compare with.
I'll test with Nougat later, maybe consider going to next Oreo beta (whenever that is). Really don't want to move to Oreo until xPosed is ready though.
