Charger. What is better? - OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers

Hey
I want to buy one more charger for my phone
what is better to use?
the old AY0520 charger or the warp 30W charger that came with OP7?
It doesnt matter the fast charging, if I will need it, I will use the 65W charger, but want one charger that charge it slowly, as normal speed, at night
thank you

I think you are worrying too much about that.
Just let it be, charge overnight with 65w also fine with smart control on smart phone nowaday.
A phone life is about 2 or 3 years, even if you want to use it longer then just replace your battery.

OPPO GaN 65W

Use another charger and cable

I bought a Lenovo p2 wich have fast charging, but i charge the phone at the night and i dont need the fast charging feature, and the fast charge heat the phone a bit. I think it is more healthy for the phone to not use the fast charging if i dont need. Am i right?
So, can i use a charger and a cable of redmi note 3 pro? Or should i buy another from another brand? Thanks!
I don't know what the official word on this is. But I use chargers of other phones all the time. I have never had a problem so far.

How fast is OP6 charging without dash rapid charger?

I have the Samsung Note 4. Like the OP6, it has a proprietary "quick charge" mode, but I find it will also charge quite fast when provided with a non-Quick Charge source such as a battery that can source several amps of current.
How fast does the OP6 charge without the Dash charger and cable? (in terms of amps drawn from source?)
Like it would take years like why would you want to know this, if you broke your charger buy another and look after it like. It's one of the main features of the phone and they don't talk about how fast it charges like
At work i use a QC3.0 charger for my OP6. Didn't notice a great difference to the DASH charger at home. Maybe DASH is a few minutes faster.
40% to 70% charge with QC3.0 is still insanely fast.
Stay on topic guys. OP asked a question, which could be answered with facts, rather than opinions and scenarios. In my regular car charger, I go from 22 to about 70 in 40 minutes, if I can recall correctly.

I'm not sure if you're serious or sarcastic, but In case of the former, here are a few reasons why someone might be interested in charging with other than the Dash Charger:
1) AFAIK, Dash is available in AC mains or 12V Car charger versions. I often use a 20K mAH Anker powerbank battery for charging. That is usually in situations where other power is not available, but a quick charge is needed. Huge current is available, but would the OP6 use it?
2) I use a compact travel charger that has 5 USB charging ports. Using a Dash charger would require carrying another charger (big, bulky, without retractable prongs), and occupying one (or more due to the shape) additional AC outlets.
3) I have a phone charger in my bedroom, at my desk, in my travel bag (both AC and Car style), and in my car. A quick check on Amazon seems to indicate that the Oneplus6 charger is several times more expensive than other "quick charge" chargers. Over multiple charger locations, the extra costs add up.
Using the word "like" so many times makes it difficult to understand the post.

I'm Irish, apology
I have a stockpile of fast chargers that used the weird Nexus standard (5V, 3A, non QC) and they're okay, and for overnight or at my desk at work that's plenty fast to get the job done. The phone shows them as "charging" and not "charging slowly."
I purchased a "Tinduqin oneplus5T charger" from Amazon that works and looks exactly the same as the original dash charger for about $20, but it seems to already be sold out.
If you don't use dash charger,you only can charge at 5v 1.5a,I have tested it with apple 45w pd charger,xiaomi qc3.0 and nexus 5v3a charger

It won't charge very fast because it doesn't use any on board quick charge it's all in the dash charging brick
I have a bunch quick chargers 3.0 at home. It takes a life time. I end up buying the dash charger. I still use the quick charger for over night charging
there must be some sort of software restrictions on oneplus6 since measures show that oneplus6 cannot be charged with more than 5V-1.5A.

Do you own the OP6? Do you have a USB power meter that could measure the charging current with and without the Dash charger and reply with the values?
On my Note 4, it charges at about 1.17A / 5 V when the screen is on, and the current goes up to 1.6A with the screen off. That is with either a QC2 Quick Charger or a battery power pack. The phone reports "quick charger connected" in both cases.
oneplus6 has 85% battery left, measured with usb voltmeter and original oneplus dash charger 5V-4A, it shows that oneplus6 is dawning 5V-1.3A and same thing is happening with other usb chargers capable to deliver over 5V-2A.
I guess oneplus6 should be discharged less than 50% or something in order to start receiving over 5V-3A

Is it possible to use a the original DASH-adapter but with another USB-C cable? I need a longer cable so I can use the phone whilwe charging.
OnePlus has a original cable for sale which is only 150cm Long.
My question is if I can buy any other manufacturers cable whish also support some sort of fast charging. I've heard for example that DASH-charging is the same charging model that Huawei P20 Pro uses, they just have different name. .
So, is there anyone here that has switched the OP original cable and charge it up with a cable from another manufacturer?
There has to be a solution to this. Me myself can't. be the only one that needs s longer cable.

That's normal. Phones pull the most amps when on low battery, then progressively less as they are charged.
Check how much it pulls on <40% and <80% respectively.
Well, I charged my Op6 with a no-name USB 3.0 charger yesterday (forgot my dash charger at home, I was by a friend) and from 3% to 100% it took about ~1 hour and 55 minutes.
Not that bad I guess. But I still prefer my dash charger
I'm using a huawei p20 pro charger atm. Phone states from 75 - 100 it will take 33 minutes. (prob a bit faster if I don't use the phone.
Here is a charging session with a Oneplus 2 charger without quick charge
Charging from 27% to 100% in 2 hrs, 40 min - avg. Charging speed: about 1000 mA/h
Hello,
I'm using this old thread since we're talking about the same thing.
Is there a kernel or rom for the OP6 that enables to draw as much current as possible form third party chargers? It's sad that it's stuck at 1.5A no matter the charger unless you use dash charger. 2A is already something, 3A would be awesome.
Of course only if this a software limit.

Slow battery recharge

Hi guys, can I use an HTC One m7 charger to recharge the OP7 Pro? ( HTC charger 5V -1A and OPT/7 pro cable).
This to preserve the battery over time.

You can use any USB charger you want for that purpose, the OP7 will fall back to the highest compatible charging rate the powerbrick is capable of (Qualcomm Quick Charge is not supported by the OP7, and in case of a USB PD powerbrick that would be 5V/3A), in your case 5V/1A.

I tried to use the charger from an Ampere, but it seems to continue to come off and come back on all the time. I would not wear the battery with the warp charge since I would like to keep it at least 2 years, do you recommend?

Strange, maybe there is a lightly higher minimum charging speed unless it detects it's connected to a USB port... Do you maybe have a 1.4A or 2A charger flying around to test that? Or try with a different USB cable and the 1A powerbrick?
I just did my first Warp Charge and the phone didn't get nearly as warm as my old Nexus 6P did get despite charging with double the current. What did get warm instead was the charger. Hope that helps maintaining battery life...
No you need to use the new charger and cord

No you'll need the red cord and new device for power outlet. Is not designed to use their warp charging unless you use it. You can also use a 2.4 amp one that's used for any phablet/tablet but it won't charge in 30 minutes.

Titacute charger problem. with 6a charger

So I have only a titacute 30w or 5v at 6a charger. I never received the original. I then purchased the orange titacute cable. In the end it can only get 4400 mah only totally dead 1% charge with ampere and other software..
What could be causing this the charger the cable or what I really wanted to get 30w charging. Thanks everyone.
Cheap *** Warp Charger clone, don't expect to much. Warp Charge is an active circuitry-controlled charger and isn't that simple to clone.
And if it's try you charger is a clone of a clone I wouldn't expect anything to charge active, what you get is normal 5v charging.

Right but OEM one plus charger only does 5v 6a for 30w. And titacute says it does that. But it's more like 5v 4.2. Can someone with the OEM and titacute 6a cable show an ampere or other app screenshot of 5800 mAh at 5v. So I know that it's the charger and just seek OEM or whatever works.. thanks
I use chargers & cables purchased from China, not from OnePlus and they work great. Since OnePlus 3. All my OnePlus phones i purchased from other people with no accesories.
Fast charge best time, 45 minutes from 0% to 100% with the phone off. (with OP 3 and op5) . Now i can't try on OP 7 pro because of Magisk.

Why not because of Magisk... I have Magisk is that why it won'y work ... I get WARP charge banner but it's a 4A charge and I have the 6A titacute charger and short orange cable (quite thick indeed) ... what gives ? Any advice for me ?
Let me clear this up.
Magisk it's the issue if you charge with the phone OFF.
It charges the phone but the screen do not show you how much (%) and when it's full, 100%.

Sorry friend but it didn't exactly clear this up. How can be sure it is charging at 6A when it's off. Also how come it says warp charge but ampure .APK shows 4100 mah which is like 4 amp.. I have seen people with 5800 mAh screenshots.. is this cause of magisk? Can we figure out why?
No. I don't think so.
Magisk it's one of the problems if you charge with the phone OFF. NOT the case for you.
Also if you got Fast charge it's ok.

Right I am aware that it is ok. But I want to know if I can buy the original charger and have it charge at max speed.. it's one of the reasons I wanted this phone. Because I hata waiting for a charge and this phone is supposed to warp charge really really fast..
This is good for many reasons but main reason why is :
I am on the road and the quicker I can charge at a stop the quicker I can get back to making money..
And also
It is better to be NOT be using the phone while a cable is attached for many reasons. Therefore the faster it charges the less time it's plugged in. The less time it is plugged in the better. For the jack , cable and experience in general
Yes, buy warp charger if you like the price 30 euro + transport (about 13-14 euro) . On OnePlus.net
Or you can buy from chinese stores, other than OnePlus, Much Cheaper. I both warp charger+warp cable with 10,30 $ US.
You can buy warp charger for car.

Unfortunately it won't charge quicker, as the way Asus implemented and designed the battery can only let it get to 18w.

This article had the most useful advice I've found about battery charging...
Always use the charger/cable that came with the phone. Ideally go from 80% to 40 or 30%. Power off the phone before charging.
But also depends how long you want to keep it etc so do what suits your lifestyle.
