Quick charge 3.0 on Samsung fast charger - Xiaomi Mi Max 2 Questions & Answers

Hi, just bought a mi max 2 and wanted to know if the charger the reseller supplied me would charge at qc 3 speeds. Is there an app that will show this information? Thanks

No, you don't need an app. If it came in original box and packaging, the supplied charger should be the original and QC 3.0 certified one. Also, to see if your phone is using QC or not you can see that on the status bar, the charging icon should be other in different charging methods. The screenshot I uploaded will show the icon when the phone is in Quick Charge.

Hi, they took the original charger out and supplied me with a new Samsung one that fits my nz/au wall socket. It does come up with that symbol when I plug it in but I don't know if it's qc 1 2 or 3? Thanks

No, this is not a QC 3.0 charger. It supports only up to QC 2.0. You can also see that by the voltage output it supports. QC 3.0 charging is using up to 12V, while QC 2.0 only 9V, same like yours.

Yes
Yes that should fast charge but only at QC 2.0 Speeds you phone you look for the voltage 9v=qc2.0 12v=qc3.0

OK thanks, it charges fast enough for me but I heard that qc 3 was easier on battery wear. Is this true? I was thinking of buying this one but not sure if it's original:

You don't need to bother yourself searching for an original Xiaomi charger. Buy some QC certified one like Anker, Aukey, etc...

USB Charging with an AC Charger

Hi guys. I'm just wondering why the htc one charges at usb speeds with an apple 12v charger however my nexus 4 charges just fine with it. It's the same thing with my new trent external battery pack.

Do you mean the one charges slow, if so i think this is deliberate by htc as a slow charge is better for the battery`s health, as the user cannot replace the battery like you can on other phones.

This is what I mean, I'm using the original cable and an apple 12v universal usb charger and it charges in usb mode and not ac mode.

It looks like the H1 has detected you apple charger as an no-approved charger and has limited it`s charging speed to lower currant/ma level.
I have seen this happen with other phones and usb charging devices before, i don't recommend you do this, an usb socket has 4 connection pins 1,2,3,4 , if the connection 2,3 are soldered together the device will charge at A/C speed, if connection 2,3 are not connected, it will charge at USB speeds.
I have taken an number of my usb charges apart and soldered pin 2+3 together to enable the high charge rate.
I cannot guaranty this is the reason for your usb message

Oh. No wonder. How sad. I have to buy new chargers I guess? The same thing happens with my car charger. Thanks for the explanation!

Charging, 1A, 1.5A, 2A?

So, I got this USB charging hub which connects directly to the wall socket. It outputs 0.8A on two sockets, 1A also on two sockets, 1.5A and 2A.

What will my HTC One prefer? On stock rom 0.8A gives you a slow charging warning, 1A is same as stock charger. Will 1.5A or 2A do any harm, or just charge my battery a lot faster?
Anyone?

Neither.
It will still draw up to 1A whilst charging.

So it's limited to 1A when charging?

Thanks a dozen, so it doesn't matter what Ampere I use as long as it's 500mA++ though seeing 800mA giving "slow charge" notification in sense, I'd go with at least 1A

mine are all 1+ (even though I'm using old chargers too, but the lowest is 1A), and never get a "slow charge" notification, so yep recommend to go with 1+ chargers.

Fast charging on MI3. Does it work?

Does anyone here have a 2A charger and can tell us how much MI3 will get of that current? It is said that the MI3 comes with fast charging, but I bought a 2A charger and the maximum the phone gets is 1.3A. I am curious if that is the maximum the charger will output or just the phone can't receive more.
Did the measurement using Elixir2 app from the market, the "Information" thing. The standard Xiaomi charger puts out a maximum of 1A, and the brand new charger I got a maximum of 1.2A.
Nobody has a 2A charger? Maybe from a Samsung phone or tablet.

I have 2A charger that I got with MI3 India. My phone gets 1.3 - 1.5 A while doing fast charging. I guess that's maximum it can draw.
How long does it take to charge?
For me only 0.6A
Hey man I heard someone on AOSP gets 1.9A, IDK how he does that.
For me even 1.3A would be good, look:

I have tested it with more chargers, in more rooms, but I get only 0.6A :crying:
Every charging takes 3.5h for me.
Yes, 0.6A is pretty bad. Even stock charger is 1A. Maybe thay did that in MIUI to protect battery heating (to prolong battery life). I haven't tried AOSP (I'm waiting for non-MIUI stable lollipop release), but I will certainly check it out.
I've also noticed that in the chargers where two middle data pins don't work (meaning there is no voltage in them), charging doesn't work either (or it is waaay slower).
EDIT:
I've just charged my phone using Logitech charger (that came with my MX1100 mouse), and found out that MI3 uses 1A on this charger (don't know what is the rate on original charger). I am using MIUI 5, latest stable.
Hi guys! I know this is an old thread but I didn't want to open a new one.
I'm currently using a 5V 2A Samsung charger and my Mi3 only draws
1320-1330 mA. I'm using Ampere and I'm on Miui6 4.4.4 Xiaomi.eu latest
developer release.
What I would like to know is:
1 - Is it possible to enable fast charging through a software update given that
the hardware supposedly supports it or is this a limitation of that little chip that is
responsible for the current draw during charge?
2 - Does anybody know if the phone draws more mA with a different rom?
Thanks

Charging Animation (normal / quick charge / charge turbo)

Hi All,
I just bought a new 27W Charging Brick for my K20 Pro and I noticed 3 things.
1. When using the original stock Charging Brick I get this animation

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
2. When using the new charging brick including its cable I get this animation labeled with "Quick charge"
3. When using the new charging brick with OnePlus 5T cable I get this animation labeled "CHARGE TURBO"
Can someone explain the difference?
I can guess the 1st one is standard charging.
But what's the difference with "quick" charge and charge "turbo"?
Does it mean 18W and 27W charging?
TIA!
Yes, 18W gives Quick Charging and 27W gives CHARGE TURBO.

Fast charge problem

Hi. My phone is on stock MIUI 12.0.1. It is not rooted nor unblocked.
The phone came with a regular (5VĂ—2A=10W) charger that works fine. I tried to charge it with with two different Samsung chargers (9V x 1.67A = 15W) and it does detect that it is fast charger yet the battery level keeps dropping.
Do I need a 18W charger? Do you think it is a bug/hardware problem? It is still under warranty.
Thanks!
Ampere - Apps on Google Play
Measure the charging and discharging current of your battery.
play.google.com
Install this and screenshot the screen to me, while the phone is plugged in.
First picture is with the regular 10W xiaomi charger and second with the 15W Samsung one. Sorry about the spanish words but you can see the voltage and current. Both Samsung chargers show about the same and they both work fine with their phones. Samsung chargers say "adaptive fast charging"

May not be compatible fast charging technologies.
Yeah... I've been doing some more research and that is what I'm thinking too... The phone is supposedly compatible with "qualcomm quick charge 3.0" and just maybe it is not compatible with Samsung chargers. What I did not expect was for the phone to actually discharge while plugged in. I will try to test a different charger and report back but being COVID times and everyhting it may take a while. Thanks to both of you!

Best bet is to use a OEM charger and cable.
I have 2 sets for my Samsung... makes troubleshooting easier.
