Hello i bought a lg charger for my lg v30. The seller said that it is real charger. But after a month, the adaptor stopped working IDK what happened to adaptor and charging cable too. Now i want to buy a new original charger for my v30 and can someone tell me how to spot the difference between fake and real charger and cable?i would really appreciate it.

It sounds like you're **assuming** because it failed, it must not be original?
I'm not so sure that's a safe assumption. Nonetheless, I'd avoid the oem charger (I have multiple of them) as they get pretty warm, as does the phone, when charging.
Go with something that is highly rated and certified for Quick Charge 3. The Anker I bought charges faster and stays cooler than oem chargers do. There are various QC3 mfg to choose from, get one with high ratings and u should be all set.
This is the one I got, it works fine: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077HFFLMS/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

Right. You don't need "LG" charger, you need good QuickCharge 3.0 charger. There are many available, but Anker is trusted name brand.

Ok thanks ?
FYI, the V30 is also USB PD compatible. It will quick charge with type C laptop chargers as well as Pixel and Essential phone chargers.
Edit- Nekteck brand makes IF certified chargers, it is available from Amazon and I have a car and wall charger that have both served me well.
Agreed, Anker is a great brand. Aukey is another good one - their cables are terrible (at least for USB micro, in my experience). Still, these are two great ways to go without wasting money on the LG (or any other brand's) rebadging.
I always use Blitzwolf. They have some great chargers / cables.
I also bought an Aukey one and it seems solid.
Just to put in my opinion, I like Blackweb products.

Has anyone seen a Quick Charge 2.0 certified portable battery pack /external battery for sale?
I've seen plenty that say "with quick charging capabilities" but none that actually seem to have the qc2.0 certification.
Can anyone point one out?
Thanks!
I don't think any currently exist, looking at Qualcomm's Quick Charge 2.0 site. The Anker Astro E4 alleges that it can charge a device up to 5V/3A.
http://www.amazon.com/13000mAh-Exte...KHJW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1417704114&sr=8-1
The Motorola Turbo Charger, from what I can see online, is a 5V/3A charger which is the "basic" implementation of QC2.0 (you can confirm if you have it). So the E4 should, in theory, get you the same charging speed. That said, even at 2A the Moto X should charge in just over an hour since it has a fairly small battery.
Yes in theory but I believe and read somewhere that it's not just the amps being output, that the charger and the device recognize the qc2.0 software.
Quick Charge 2.0 isn't just amps, and as far as I know, nothing pulls more than 2A over micro USB, maybe the One plus one, but that uses an entirely different quick charging method.
Quick Charge 2.0 instead changes the voltage to deliver more electrical power to the device. Instead of 5v-2A, it can switch to 9v-2A or 12v-1.5A.
I haven't seen any battery based chargers that use QC2.0 yet.

Right, but like I said, according to Qualcomm's site there are no true QC2.0 batteries.
And yes, part of the QC2.0 spec is allowing for higher voltage charging, which gets around the voltage drop caused by pumping higher current through a wire. But there is also an allowance for standard 5V chargers at 3.0A.
Do we have a working charging meter app like current widget yet for this device? I have a 3.1A charger and have not experienced higher charging speeds.
If anyone finds one make sure to post it!
I'm just bumping this in case anyone has seen or heard of one.

It's legit, as it's been certified by Qualcomm. Unfortunately, the only place I've seen it offered for order is on alibaba, where there's a minimum 1000 unit order.
Edit - had found this thread when searcdhing for the pack, and posted, then realized there was a more updated thread reflecting the same. Sorry for the necro.
I was able to obtain a small quantity of these MP5200Q from the manufacturer. I am keeping a couple and selling the rest for cost plus fees.

I didn't say it was. It's not QC2.0, but it has the exact same output specs as the Turbo Charger. I've actually gotten a quicker charge out of my Anker PowerIQ wall charger (which is only up to 2.4A) than I do out of my Turbo Charger, probably because the Turbo Charger slows the charge as it gets closer to full. The Anker Astro E4 is also over twice the capacity of the Incipio.
http://www.incipio.com/ces-power/quick-charge-portable-backup-battery-6000-mah.html
Good find, but $90?! Holy moly. The battery is already portable. At that price, I'll just leave the phone plugged into the battery for a little bit longer while I'm carrying it around!
What do you think about this car/wall quick charger 2.0. Is this good quality brand?
http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=231591070533&alt=web
Yeap, got the same one from amazon, works flawless.
I am not sure which one is better tronsmart or HTC TC-P1000? I always prefer genuine products but in this case am not sure. Here is link of tcp1000:
http://m.ebay.de/itm?itemId=331514042214
For me, i prefer the tronsmart ones, because the price is lower, and the most important, i can find they are qualcomm certified on qualcomm webiste, which make me feel confidence

i bough this charger yesterday, I wait at home but it will take a bit of time, it must come from Japan and are in Italy! when it arrives I will tell you my impressions!

Nah, I'm pretty sure the stock charger is supposed to get you up to 100%. I can leave it on the charger over night and wake up to 97-99%. Quick charger, though, goes up to 100% quickfast, and stays at 100% until I unplug it.

Samsung isn't "Quick Charge". It's their own knockoff/brand/flavor of the same concept.
So Samsung chargers won't work with any other brand phones, and you can't get a Quick Charge with a Samsung phone. Kind of annoying of them, but I guess they're free to do what they want.

I know in the early days of USB-C some chargers were tested to be non 100% compatible and can actually damage your device.
It is about time I got a USB-C car charger.
I should not worry they should all be 100% compatible ?
What have you purchased for your car if you care to recommend something ?
Never mind I see google sells a USB-C Car Charger https://store.google.com/product/belkin_27w_usb_c_car_charger

That's only 10.8W - far cry from the 18W the phone is capable of.

I am sure you know that the phone and chargers negotiate different levels of charging dependant on several conditions. In particular notice in my post, the phone was at 66% charge, far from depleted, which would have probably triggered a faster charge.
Please show us what car charger you're using and the tests you ran.

How do you know it won't fry the Pixel? It's some cheap thing from China. USB C has had a lot of shady manufacturers. I would not be trusting my phone to that.
You need a USB PD charger. Type C should hit 5V/3A, or 80% of the maximum possible, 9V/2A, but still... it's not guaranteed safe.

Phone can take more than advertised.
Pixel Stand charges mine at that rate.
I might have seen 15w once too.
Maybe it's 13.2 watts from the charger, but the pixel only gets 11 watts. Not sure what the loss is but it's not 1 to 1.
The wireless charger for the car I got gets to that level but it seems to cause the phone to run hot. once it reaches 104 F it stops charging. I have had to reposition the charger to the AC vent to circulate air and sometimes for the AC to cool it so it'll keep charging. Is it better to get a wireless charger that doesn't output that much power?

Just bought that one for my daughter, so that's good to know it charges that fast.
To be honest, I don't trust Inware's reported power draw anymore. I dropped my phone onto an old Tylt 5W pad and the app reported 8.4W, up to about 10W at one point. I seriously doubt that the pad is able to do that and suspect that it's misreporting. What other apps do people use to measure charge rates?
I bought the latest version of this charger. Amazon has 5 SKUs for this. 2 older models, one with charger, one without. 2 newer models. one with charger, one without. Finally a black version which I can't tell if it's new or not.
The updated version I bought for my Pixel 4XL shows charging at 10W using Inware. That's fast enough for me.
I am guessing that for the Pixel to say fast charging it has to reach 18W? The only time I have seen it say fast is plugged in with fast compatible chargers.
I have to say this version feels premium and fancy. Very nice.
One last thing, gave up having my mini wallet attached to the back of the phone. Not even the Google Wireless stand can maintain good contact for it to charge. On my previous Samsung i had no problems charging with the wallet attached with 3 cards in it. No luck with the Pixel.

New poster so can't link. Search Amazon for "Yootech 7.5W/10W/15W Fast Wireless Charger with Cooling Fan,7.5W Wireless Charging Stand with QC3.0 Adapter Compatible iPhone 11/11 Pro/11 Pro Max,15W LG V30/V35/G8,10W Galaxy Note10/S10,Pixel 3/4XL" It's about $22.
I bought it because it supports up to 15W and comes with a charger. Anyway, I put the device on the charger and I'm seeing 13.2W consistently:
This is both cool and kind of unsettling to me. Is the charger violating specs and sending more power than the Pixel 4 XL can take or can the phone take more power than the 11W advertised?

To be honest, I don't trust Inware's reported power draw anymore. I dropped my phone onto an old Tylt 5W pad and the app reported 8.4W, up to about 10W at one point. I seriously doubt that the pad is able to do that and suspect that it's misreporting. What other apps do people use to measure charge rates?

I bought the latest version of this charger. Amazon has 5 SKUs for this. 2 older models, one with charger, one without. 2 newer models. one with charger, one without. Finally a black version which I can't tell if it's new or not.
The updated version I bought for my Pixel 4XL shows charging at 10W using Inware. That's fast enough for me.

Nevermind. For some reason I thought this was about a car charger
Hello everyone, I just purchased a Oppo Find X2 Pro, and Im really happy so far with the phone (just 2 weeks using it). I went through most of the posts in this forum before posting and I decided to register and discuss about a few things.
This post comes from my idea of trying to find compatible chargers and cars so I can have other options besides the one that comes with the phone
I read here several posts from people recommending NOT to use in a daily basis the official Super Vooc charger that comes with the phone, and that surprises me.
I had been talking with OPPO Uk support in the last days, asking them if this would damage the battery, and they always end up telling me the same sentence:
Use OPPO original charging cable and USB adapter. Third-party accessories might not be compatible with OPPO smartphone and cause problems.

I feel like this may be just so you buy their accesories.
For example, I wanted to get a Super Vooc 2.0 charger but since its out of stock in the UK, I asked if then I couldnt charge at all my Find X2 Pro in my car, which was annoying, and I could temporarily use a regular car charger, so then they said:
As long as the cable is compatible with your Find X2 Pro model, you shoud be able to as the adaptor in question is just the adaptor and not the cable that goes into the phone's charging port.

So I was looking for some experts opinion on charging the Find X2 Pro, since in the OPPO suport pages theres no info at all, which is annoying since its a new technology and they should explain the options we have to charge it.
For example, can I charge it using something like a usb socket from a Xiaomi Power Strip (which I have)?:

And if I can, do I have to user the official super vooc cable or just a regular usb-c usb-a cable?
Also, can I use one of my samsung usb chargers but using the usb-c cable?
Several questions like these ones I asked to OPPO support just to have the same reply of ussing the official to avoid problems. I asked besides charging slower would it cause any damage? and they wont reply directly but just say that its possible that damage could be done...
Charging through USB port uses standardized process. A phone must charge with any 5V USB power source and cable.
The charging speed may differ depending on charger and cable capabilities. You should just avoid low cost / poor quality chargers and cables as sometimes they doesn't fulfill the requirements (max voltage, current control, ...).
I'm charging my phone overnight using an old Sony 800mA charger with a OnePlus Dash charge cable, so it charges slowly and the phone remains cold.
At home on my desk I use a Legrand power strip with integrated 2A USB ports when I don't need fast charging, and it works fine.
At work I'm using a OnePlus Dash charger from my old 3T and its cable, and it's recognized by the phone as a VOOC charger ... Who said sister companies ?
Thanks for your reply. I imagined that in all of those cases the phone would charge, yes of course it works any charger and cable just changing the speed. The question for me is, could it be somewhat harmful to the battery in the long term. After the phone is expecting a super vooc cable and super vooc charger on the other side. Maybe this is stupid, I dont know much about electricity/batteries/etc...

You can use magnetic cables as well. A friend uses these vooc magnetic cables to charge his one plus device. He has two devices the 5t and 7 it both warp charges and dash charges.
