So did I understand right? The 7 Pro should be able to charge from 0-50% in 20 Minutes. Also, charging speed shouldn't be decreased while using the phone (even "Gaming"), right? As well as the heat, which shouldn't increase according to OnePlus.
Well for me, nothing of this works. In 20 minutes, while my device is shut down, it charges only from 0-38%. And the phone is very hot too. It's even worse when I use and charge my phone at the same time.
Anybody else with these issues?
Are you using the supplier charging brick AND the wire that came with your phone? Using either one that is not from OnePlus will give you shower charging speeds. I'm not sure but might also be the reason is getting hot is the OnePlus brick has all the circuitry that keeps the phone from getting hot.
Now, if you are using the brick and cable that came with the phone, i would say if your on a custom ROM out kernel or have and Magisk modules installed, to go bad to complete stock. I'd backup all files to your PC, and maybe even use the fastboot ROM to reflash all the partitions cleanly. I'd do this before trying to send it back because this is not normal for your phone. My phone never gets hot, charges insane fast while using it as well.
My guess is something is defective but a custom kernel or modules could be causing shenanigans
Thanks for answering. Yes, I use the original wire and brick. I'm also on stock Oxygen OS, with only Substratum installed.
How much percent is your 7 Pro gaining withing 20 minutes?

This is probably the wierdest thing I have seen with any phone I have ever had. I'm at work with Inspire sitting in my holster. When I tried to go use it, it will not turn on. Nothing I do will turn it on. Unpluggin the battery, plug it into the charger. I have a spare battery at home which I will try, but I feel it just straight up died. Last time checked battery was > 50%.
I wonder if undervolting the CPU can damage the phone. I have been running UV for a while and it's not overclocked at all.
I can't even revert it to stock before I return it.
Well, if it won't turn on, I wouldn't worry about reverting to stock. The morons at the AT&T store will not be able to tell it's been rooted. As far as UV damaging the phone, it's not something I've heard of, but I'd imagine it's possible.
I highly doubt undervolting will cause damage. Overvolting yes, electricity starts to "leak" past transistor and damage gets done. Too much uv would cause erratic behavior and prevent startup. But not in a damaging way.

Well, the car charger didn't charge it but the wall charger was able to charge it. Apparently something caused the phone to discharge from like 50% to nada. Very interesting. I don't think it's my ROM or Kernel, and I haven't installed anything in like couple of weeks.
My phone has been dying quickly for the last 2 or 3 days... The phone is maybe 3 months old and I'm not a heavy user. The battery went from full to about 20% in 6 hours on standby today.
Only thing I see differently is that I got a message that a new update is available but I don't see how that would matter. Can someone point me to a link for updating the phone? I'm currently rooted.

If you are rooted try doing a FULL WIPE with the wipe tool, Full Wipe 1.3 and reload a fresh rom that you know is reliable (I am using Leedroid GB) and do not load any apps until you try the phone out for a little while. Load first current widget and monitor how many milliamps you are drawing. Then slowly add apps one by one and whatch what is eating your battery. It sounds like a bad app or stuck sync....

Mine does it randomly. I had it since April 20, and it has shutdown 3 or 4 times. Still don't know the cause of it.

Funny no one is stating their OS they are running?
The only time my phone randomly SHUT DOWN was running the leaked Gingerbread rom from LG. Stock was fine as were CM7.
Of all the roms I've tried, I've never had reboot problems or finding the phone off outside of the leaked GB.
This happened to me all the time with the stock FroYo ROM. I think it is caused when the phone runs out of free RAM (due to playing a game or running lots of widgets) I flashed CM7 with the ext4 Trinity maxmem firmware and it fixed all of these types of problems. Also, the stock battery seems to have major issues because when I replaced the battery with a third party one it fixed lots of problems with battery life and also the HDMI instantly drain the battery.
I still believe it could be a combo of questionable batteries and chargers. Purchased two the first week out. Mine started the reboot dance the first night. My wifes phone has had zero issues as has my replacement.
Probable fix
Hello,
So we’ve been working on this issue for quite a while. And have come up with a semi-practical solution. This might interest some of you, who have this issue.
Issue:
Both I and my friend opted out to purchase the new and wonderful LG g2x phone. After receiving the phones we came against a very similar issue. The cellphone unit would shutdown/turnoff during the charge [car or wall]. The shutdown would occur around 95% of battery charge. In addition the phone would get hot. After the shutdown to start the phone would require pulling the battery out of the unit and reconnecting it again, otherwise known as: Perform a battery pull.
Trials:
So after doing some research and funding out that LG is literally doing nothing about this issue, [great testament to their corporate integrity] we decided to take on this issue. At first we also believed that it is, indeed, the battery that gets heated and goes offline after reaching some temperature. After recognizing the poor quality of the battery, I’ve decided to purchase a better quality one online. No surprise really the phone would still lockup at 95% charge.
At this point I took it upon myself to resolve this issue with what resources I have available. I am an MIT student and have a high tech engineering lab available at my disposal, in addition to some free time with a winter break and all. Anyways, I pulled the phone apart and this is what I’ve discovered…
Discovery:
So inside the phone right next to the 4 connecting diodes that connect the battery to the cellphone unit are 2 semis [semiconductor hubs] that are responsible for providing battery charge information to the cellphones cpu [central processing unit] in addition theres also a line running to those semis that probably carries some sort of information [current] that the semis are also responsible for.
The first approach that we took was through the hardware, and killed that additional line and allowed the semis to only be responsible for the battery charge. The results were somewhat positive. Although the phone would freeze and glitch like crazy it would not shutdown with a subsequent necessity of pulling the battery.
We also noticed that it was the two semis that would get hot actually and lockup shutting the phone up and requiring a battery pull. The reason you need to pull the battery is because the iodes would overheat and completely glitch out, also even though the phone was now powered off there still was a current running between the battery and the phone. Only the battery pull would allow the diodes to drop the charge and reset to the position for the phone to be functional again and able to power up.
Solution:
So the idea was to find a software solution, which would free up this one line running into semis and allow them only to carry the responsibility for reporting the battery charge to the cpu. Believe it or not the first thing that came to my mind was the solution.
The app called Advance Task Killer (ATK) [available free on the market] proved to be useful. I do understand that this program is not very effective and only kills running progs in the foreground. However, that single line is also not very important to information transfer and becomes useless after you clear the cellphone’s foreground information transfer.
Basically when you run atk the line becomes inactive and you can charge the phone without any lockups. I’ve been doing that for about 10 days now. Discharging the battery to about 17% and charging it all the way up again and the phone has not yet turned off once and required a battery pull, nor has it been getting hot.
The idea is to clear the line prior to putting the phone on charge [car or wall]. So what you do is run atk few times [twice at least] then plug the phone in. this worked for both me and my boi here @ mit. After a week plus of testing we decided to release this onto the public.
We both a running stock lg g2x gingerbreads and have not tested it on any other roms, however, I suspect that it will have a similar effect on more leaner and cleaner roms like CS7.
Hope this helps those who are still struggling with this issue.
P.S.
In addition I would like to add that we did pull the battery apart in the lab and found that the stock battery was complete SHAYT! Some of the cells were cracked and overall it was just poorly manufactures. Cracked cells inside the power unit diminish its capacity to carry charge by a factor razed to n^power. Also may cause the battery to heat up during the final stages of its charge process [around 95%] due to the fact that to go the last 5% it will require higher resistance also in n^power. I suspect that in this great economy LG is cutting corners whatever place it can so there’s prolly very minimal quality control in power unit production. To those who think that they lose charge too quickly, that the battery gets too hot during charges, and possibly causing the phone to lock up: If you are using the stock battery, you may want to consider replacing it.
P.P.S.
Overall it is a hardware issue, in our opinion, that could be fixed with the use of the software, by rendering that extra line inactive for example. However, I would like to NOT compliment LG as a corporation and organization in general on their moral standing and responsibility that they carry to their customer base by doing completely nothing about this issue!
Thank You LG, I am no longer your customer.

Mine used to only shut down during phone calls. This only happened about 4 or 5 times and it got very annoying but eventually it just stopped and hasn't happened since.

I had my phone reboot during calls a few times a day after I got it. I OC'd my phone with Setcpu and was running Juicedefender. Ever since I clocked it back down and uninstalled those two apps (mind you I just got rid of them without doing any research if it was a problem really either of them cause). I'm going to get replacement batteries soon in hopes to help but it's good know a technique finally so my phone wont crap out during the night.
Seperate story kinda, I once put my phone on the charger. I placed the phone on my bed but with proper air circulation. It sat there for an hour or so. I walked over to use it and the thing was extremely hot. I pulled the battery and checked the phone. The battery was hotter then the phone so you could tell it was the thing over heating and not the phone. I put the battery back in the phone and booted and went straight to spare part's battery stats. It said the battery was overheating. So I pulled the battery and held it and the phone in front of a fan. 5 minutes later it was running cooler then any other time I looked at the battery readings (about 28c) and my phone charged fine for the rest of the night. Also yes when it did over heat the phone wouldn't turn on the first time I got to it.
I flash the CM 10 Nightly build on my GS3 VZW and my battery dies but not just in the regular way. I have had my phone on the charger all day at work and instead of it charging it has been dying to the point of where it's close to zero. When I try to cut the phone off & charge it that way instead of it charging it just keeps rebooting itself. I've tried whipping every thing & i'm getting the same results. My next step is to change the roms itself & see if that does anything. I love the rom but without a battery it's no good to me. Any suggestions..?

I would go back to stock rom to see if it works, i had a similar problem and had to get my phone replaced because the battery was dead and wouldnt charge. Idk if it was something with the rom or not.
the same thing was happening to me and i thought it was the rom and/or kernel, turned out that the ac charger broke 3 weeks from when i got the phone so it wasn't charging anything
Recently bought an HTC One SV on Cricket and love the phone so far, but have run into a bit of a problem.
While the phone charges, it seems as though I cannot use it, period, as a little message will pop up saying that the phone is discharging faster than it is charging. Now this happens no matter what the application is, whether it be playing a game, tethering (which I need to use), or even playing music on the damn thing.
I am using the stock charger and cord and it does not matter if I charge from a wall outlet vs. charing from a usb on my laptop (which also has SuperCharger), it still discharges faster than it charges.
Anyone else run into this problem? Have a solution?
Thanks in advance.
I have never heard about something like that, are you still stock?

Yep, I have the 4.1.2 and sense 4+ update and thats it. Haven't decided if I want to do a custom ROM yet.

There is no custom rom, thats really differs from yours. All are based on stock Sense 4+ only apps removed/replaced or mods to change look/behavior.
But for your problem i'm sorry, only suggestion is a factory reset, if it is not to hard for you to lose anything.

Yea I already got the phone setup the way I like and everything and was hoping to avoid a reset. I also read somewhere and various other places that HTC specifically limits how fast their phones charge. Rather than let them fast charge up to like 70-80% and then trickle charge, they trickle charge the whole time.

Not sure about that info ( they trickle charge the whole time ), but as suggested before, do a hard reset, but not from Menu. Use the buttons combo instead and charge the phone while is off...
If not solved then back to store for replacement/repair.
Might be a faulty battery, my mate has a S2 and he can charge it for 4 hours with mild usage but it might rise only 10%.
Hi I have now had my OPO for one year now. 3 months ago however I ruined my display due to water going in the phone, rest of phone was working fine. I brought in a new display and fixed it just yesterday. Phone's fine however I've run into one problem.
Phone charges really slowly. 5 hours for a full charge. It wasn't like that before. It used to take 5 hours only if I was using a 1A charger. But now even with OPO charger and a Sony 1.5A charger it takes the same. Previously it only took 60-90 minutes with the OPO charger.
I used the OPO Charging Current app and I'm only getting on average 300 mA while charging. Shouldn't I be getting around 2000?
help needed
Edit: I forgot to add, I was in CyanideL ROM before, thought it was a software issue, and instaleld BlissPop latest, but same on both
Guys help?
Bump for help :/

Same problem with me in each and every ROM. Never found any workarounds. So I just flashed AK kernel and increased AC Charging current to 2100mA using Synapse. Now it works alright but whenever I plug into charging I must check what current I am getting because sometimes even if I have increased it to 2100 it charges with 50-100mA. Simply reconnecting the chrger does the trick though. Also IF you dont prefer AK Kernel, latest Resurrected Kernel also has the feature, but you'll have to increase the currently manually at each boot using Terminal.

Met I'm already using AK kernel but setting that does nothing for me, maybe its a hardware problem for me
