Battery mod charging issue - Moto Z Force Accessories

Anyone run across this?
Both the Tumi and the Incipio battery mod will not charge unless plugged into the supplied charger, 30 w one that came with phone.
I'm aware QC 2.0 charges will not technically charge the Z Force at turbo speed but charges it faster than a standard charger.
So using a 2.0 charger it charges the phone fine but will not switch to charging the battery mods. This is using a usb c cable and a micro usb cable with a USB micro to usb c connector.
It just sits there saying g waiting to charge. But once I use the supplied charger it charges the moto mod battery.

Interesting...I wonder if it has anything to do with tripping the "turbo power" message...there are chargers out there (have to be usb-c to usb-c) that will turbo charge our phones...but not as fast as the OEM charger...I'd be curious to see if those work to charge the power packs

The funny thing is even when I use the supplied 30 watt charger that came with the phone it charges about 300 mah/rate. Heck my 2.0 chargers charge the phone at 1600 mah/rate. So I don't know. I know if it's not fixed soon I'll be returning the incipio wireless battery mod back to best buy in a couple days.

Yea I dont know. The guy didnt sound too convincing. They could also be just saying that. But he did readily admit it was a known issue.

Well spoke to Motorola customer tech support today. They advised the issue I'm having with th eastern mod, tumi and incipio, is a known issue.
They also advised the only way to charge the phone and have it then switch to charging the battery mod is to use the supplied charger. No other charger will work.
I can't believe they would not think of this issue coming up. Very disappointed.

Moto tech support was way wrong. I went to local Verizon store and tested out the Verizon usb c vehicle and house charger. Both turbo charge my phone and both then charge the battery mod.

So if it charges with the Verizon charger I wonder why my Platinum Quick Charge brick or car charger won't work... That's odd

Looks like your charger is QC 2.0. It probably only produces 10W (2A X 5V). The Moto Z charger produces 15W (3A X 5V). Your Z Force charger produces 28.5W (5.7 X 5V).
I think the min. W to TurboCharge is 15W.

I suppose that would make sense, though I hope the software update would add support to QC 2.0. I'd hate to rebuy all my fast chargers for the 3.0 capability. If anything I think they should require that the phone reach 100% and then the battery starts charging, if the 2.0 chargers cannot charge both simultaneously. I love Motorola phones but their support is in SERIOUS need of a reform.

It will never support QC. QC is incompatible with it. Phones that have USB C and QC are out of spec. Have a look at this thread for more info on it.

Wireless chargers do the trick.
I had the same issue but had a qi wireless charger in the drawer here at work. Set it on top and it's now charging the Incipio battery mod, so it's all good. Irritating that a Samsung OEM usb-c charger from my S8 won't charge the mod though.

You can't (uninstall mod manager), at least not on Oreo. Disabling and re-enabling doesn't change the behavior.

I had the issue mentioned here, my moto mod battery was not charging. I switched to the cable and plug that came with the phone and it started charging. Thanks to the folks on here that mentioned it as a possible fix.

can you take a picture of your charger of dose it say Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 on it ?
Anyone in the US (not sure about other regions) can waltz into a verizon store and pick up one of these:
http://www.verizonwireless.com/acce...er-with-fast-charge-technology-for-micro-usb/
Price isn't terrible at ~$35. I'm not on verizon and I don't like all the red, but who cares at the end of the day. Also, the USB cable it comes with has a light on the end. which is handier than I thought it would be. IE: stabbing your phone in the butt when trying to charge it in the dark. I do not regret getting this charger for a second.

(If you can't catch it then it's a quick charge... lol!) Yes there is a way, if you plug in a slow charger you will get a pop up message telling you that you are using a slow charger. I charge my m9 from my PC as it has a built-in USB port for fast charging phones, which can even be used if the PC is powered off.
Will this charger charge the M9 faster? I don't know if it supports that Qualcomm fast charging 2.0 though?

I've had great results from the Choe brand QC chargers LINK. Used it with my M8 now using for my M9.

Takes up one space on the power strip.

I bought that same charger. Would you be willing to download the free app called Ampere and see what it reports for current when you are using that charger? I am having a very weird issue where Ampere is only reporting about 250mA with that charger but if I use a different charger that is not Qualcomm certified I get upwords of 1500 milliamps. I'm wondering if Ampere is just not capable of handling the calculation on a phone with the Qualcomm Quick Charge technology or if there is something wrong with the charging of my phone.
I just bought these two, and it said I will have them by Sunday; it's Friday!
Two fast charge ports on the wall charger and 1 on the car charger, and the rest of the ports are 2.4 amp 5 volt.

I haven't yet felt the need for a second charger, but I was curious. All that I found when I entered the numbers on the charger itself was this http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/motorola-turbopower-25-mains-charger-black-p54390.htm
I don't know how it will work in comparison to the 25, but there are plenty of Turbo 15s on ebay. I'm thinking of giving it a shot
Just buy a 3rd party charger and use that. Why pay for overpriced OEM gear when a reputable 3rd party like Aukey, Anker or Tronsmart does the exact same thing for 1/3 of the price?
Tronsmart - http://amzn.to/1Fwm9y8
Aukey - http://amzn.to/1Fwmild
Anker - http://amzn.to/1ViLjaq
I'm not even using the 25w charger. I hate that they hardwired the cable to the charger. Makes it even more bulkier. I rather just bring my Anker 5-port USB charger (http://amzn.to/1ViLF0I) or just take Aukey single USB wall adapter (http://amzn.to/1FwmMHT) and insert my own USB cable.
All 3 will charge the device at quick speed based on what the phone is able to accept and what the charger can output.

I have the OEM 15w and it works just as well as the 25w that came with the device IMHO. Maybe for someone there's a difference. But the charge is so fast with either, it's all good either way for me . Unless someone really has a strong need, I would not worry over the 25w vs 15w at all.
Are you seeing the "Turbo Charge" message when using the 3rd party chargers? I am using the Aukey QC 2.0 charger which is pumping 1700 mA into the phone, but only seeing the "charge" message, not Turbo Charge.
With the Moto Charger I see "Turbo Charge"
I only see "charge". Even with the moto charger, I only saw charge. But I only used it once. It did tell me how long it would take for a full charge.
I just an email to Motorola asking if it is possible to order another turbocharger, hopefully they will respond sometime in the afternoon and I'll post it up

You have to plug is with the screen unlocked, under 100% battery and wait a moment. The TurboCharge message will appear. And you can try with the device turned off and it will show after a few seconds.

So you plug it in and turbo charging is displayed on your screen?
It's doesnt say "turbo charging" but (could be my imagination) it seems to charge faster than a regular charger. for the price its cheap, has done me good so far. owned it a month now.

That charger is 5v 2.1A =10w of charge
Turbo charger defaults on 9v 2.85=25w of charge
ChoeTech 15600mAh power pack works. The phone shows turbo charging.
The key is to have the battery pack off before connecting the phone and then turn on the pack after the phone is connected.
One of the LED will turn green to show that it's QC and the phone display will show 'turbo charging'.

Aukey Car Charger Not QC 3.0 as Advertised

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.

AUKEY Quick Charge 3.0 Car Charger 36W Dual Ports for LG G5, HTC One A9, Nexus 6, iPhone, Samsung S7and more (Includes 1 Meter Micro USB Cable) - Black https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01B5X35FM/
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 know when I mount my phones to the windshield mount it get quite hot. Is it possible the is causing the circuit to reduce draw to protect from over heating? Have to tried contacting AUKEY about the issue?

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.

Aukey is a Qualcomm certified QC 3.0 brand. I was looking to buy the Aukey as well but evidently buying one for the expected results seems like buying a box of kiddy cereal looking for the last piece of a puzzle.......or visiting McDonald's for the missing Monopoly piece. Wow.

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

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.

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%.

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.
