Can I charge my Huawei Mate 20 Lite with charger that is 3A to get faster charging? - Huawei Mate 20 Lite Questions & Answers

I am little bit familiar with charger that came with the box. It sais 2A is the energy and 'pushing force' is 9V (as I understood with standard chargers you get 5V). Now I assumed that what came with the box is not the best charger but good enough (same as earpods) and was searching for the best solution for my phone to charge it as quickly as possible. Maybe that can be done with the 3A charger? I wouldn't want to fry my battery so if someone with expertise can enlighten me that would be great!

You shouldn't plug more powerful charger to your phone than huawei planned, it won't work how you think it would. Mate 20 lite suppers only fast charging and u can't plug anything more than that unfortunately

Thanks for the answer! I was just wondering then, why did Huawei plant a 3A cable(it is written on the cabel itselt) but the charging brick is only 2A? That is what got me thinking this could maybe be possible.

Maybe for that you could plug to some other phone, which supports quicker charging, the cable, but with a different brick

Won't the phone just pull to USB spec? Using a non Huawei charger would just slow charge no matter the amps.

It won't damage but the question was will it work as it would. And the answer is no cause phone has its own limits of charging

Not sure why you keep arguing with me....I have stayed on topic and not said anything that was false.
Bottom line, it will not fry his phone. It will just charge like any standard USB charger, which will not be as fast as using a Huawei one.

Stop talking about the things you clearly have no idea about, the 3A charger won't burn anything as the 3A rating means it's capable of delivering 3A, the phone pulls current out of the charger and even if your charger is 20A the phone won't get damaged, it will probably be constantly 5V unless you have some switching 3A charger that switches between 5V and 9V similarly to huawei's.
I'm using the Quick charge 3.0 charger on my p10 lite (charger supports 3A at 5V, 2A at 9V and 1.5 A at 12V) and it works just fine, switches just like huawei's.
ProofFor some reason it displays charging current to be 3A, it's not, it's 2A and 9V)

Looking for the right car charger? LOOK NO MORE!

Ive came across this cool car charger and I wanted to share it with my fellow streakers. Ive been using this http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d.html/ref=redir_mdp_mobile/180-9586428-1608559?redirect=true&ref_=oss_product&a=B003JP7GN2 all in one car charger and I must say I love this thing. It's small, convenient, and charges just about everything. I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I do. you'll thank me for this, thats a promise.
No ones willing to give this a try? Lol
It is nice, could you post the technical information such as input & output.
comon, its not a car charger !!!! its just an adapter. a car charger would consist of some thing you plug into the car and the other end would plug into the phone. let me know when you find a REAL car charger !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes it is, it's a car charger, mains charger, 9v battery powered charger but I doubt it outputs more than 500ma per usb port, the listing has no details on that.
I fail to understand how that plugs into my phone to charge it, WITHOUT using the cable that my phone came with ???????????
A REAL car charger for just about any other phone does not require the use of a data cable. Like i said thats just an adapter just like the one i already have.

Not sure why this is being discussed again, but there are plenty of other threads about Car Chargers that work with the Streak.
This one https://www.dealextreme.com/p/car-cigarette-powered-1000ma-usb-adapter-charger-black-dc-12v-40470 is a good choice at $1.99 inc free shipping worldwide. It works with the Streak, outputs 1000mA, and is super tiny.

I tried something similar to that, and it didn't work. It was a Griffin charger rated at 2.1 amps for the iPad. Not sure if that one is different since it isn't as specific as the one I picked up. I returned it immediately.
Yeah they have the one for the iPad too, its rated at 2.1 amps. Its like $28.88, this one is $12.88. Im sure if it didnt work, this one wont either. Thanks for the quick reply. I really need a car charger, Bestbuy didnt have any either when I got my Streak last Saturday. I updated it to 2.2 last night and its a totally different phone. I love it!

USB vs AC charging

With my previous phone (Samsung Galaxy S2) you could make the phone think it was connected with an AC charger by shortening the two middle usb pins. This would make the phone charge with 1000mA instead of 500mA.
But somehow HTC uses a different approach. I shortened the two middle pins of my car charger, but the phone still 'knows' it's on a usb charger. So the middle pin tric is not working on the HTC One. Does anybody know how to make the phone think it's on a AC charger, and therefore being charged with 1000mA instead of 500mA?
I'm using this charger: http://www.hamaholst.nl/NL/29207/ipad-gen1-2-3-mini-autolader-5v-21a.html
IMO it is a bit silly shorting out pins. But it's your device you can do what you like.

Just to be clear, I shortened the pins of the car charger, not the pins of the phone.
This has already been done with many other phones (shortening the two data pins) but on the One it does not work, the phone still says USB charging...
-oeps-
I took an AC charger apart, and guess what, the two middle usb pins are shortened!
So what else tells the phone whether it's on an AC or USB Charger???

That charger would charge at 1amp either way. If your battery charge is high, nothing you do short of enabling Fast Charge will charge more than 500mAh even on AC. That's just how the battery works. From 0% to about 80%, it charges at 1amp, and when it touches 80%, even on an AC charger from the wall it will drop to 500mAh.

Yeah I read that. But as long as my car charger is recognised as an usb charger instead of an ac charger, it will never charge with 1A, even if the battery level is below the 80%

Sometimes it's the cable that needs changing. I've had perfectly good USB cables that would only charge at 500mAh and couldn't transfer data. The thicker ones are usually good for full 1amp charging

Tried different cables. This is not a new thing, with the galaxy S2 it was the same story. Some car chargers are just recognised as usb chargers. And when the phone detects the usb charger/computer charge is switches to the 500mAh max charge

That's true. But to be honest, I don't really need the auto mode, just need the higher mA to charge my phone while navigating
Offcourse I can also buy the official HTC CC C220 for about 10 euro's, but I would like to use my pico charger instead of a large charger... But looks like it's not gonna work out
So I guess the solution to this is that you need a USB cable that tells your phone it's an AC charger..

Battery Charger Deck for Note2 LTE...do they exist?

Are you talking about wireless charging? Like putting a receiver in your phone and then resting your phone on a charging pad and have it charge without and cables? If that is your question then the answer is inductive or Qi charging.

Here is a video showing the Verizon note 2 with wireless charging.

Or if you are talking about charging your extra battery you can get a wall adapter for that.

From what I understand Qi charging is just that they have named the wireless charging platform for phones where as inductive charging is the actual science behind it all.
Unfortunately Verizon has made it somewhat difficult to make that happen on our note 2 but it can be done with some modifications.

Almost all desktop cradle charges will only allow Note 2 with a thin tpu case or no case at all. Also, that other wall charger for a battery itself can only charge at max 500mA (1/4 of your typical 2A charging speed). I think for what you are looking for the cradle charger will be more appropriate.
I have been using this dock for about 6 months.

May be you should read what I have said, unless your version does not come with a USB port, then yes a mod is needed, but i'm sure even the verizon or t mobile version uses the USB port to charge and use for datat connection.

Sorry, could you provide a link? I believe you are referring to one that uses an oversized case that plugs in to the micro usb charging port and has the charging antenna built in. I have seen these but it is far from an elegant solution. Also, does it allow for a pass through so you can still use the usb port while installed?

I see, thanks for the pic. Doesn't seem to require an oversized case at all. Need to unplug it if you want to use the usb port for anything else though. A nice alternative if people are uncomfortable with the hardware mod.

You can still use the oem battery cover, but if you have a international version, a dedicated receiver is available, so the USB version is not needed.

Anker Quick Charge 3.0 (Charger Review)

*Disclaimer*.....the S7 does not support Quick Charge 3.0. It only supports 2.0 but I may be picking up the G5 or HTC 10 which does support it.
I needed a new/extra charger so I figured I'd get something that supports the latest Quick Charge technology.
The charger itself feels well made. The prongs fold in for traveling purposes and it doesn't block the outlet/outlets sitting next to it. In regards to noise this charger makes none of it. Those who have used cheap chargers know the humming/buzzing noise I'm referring to. It's extremely annoying.
Now onto the part that really matters. I haven't had the time to compare this charger to the stock Samsung charger in regards to really putting them through the paces but early results look promising for the Anker.
I started the charge process with quick charge enabled at 5% and started a timer for 30 minutes. The stock Samsung charger was able to bring the battery to 43% while the Anker charger brought the battery to 52%.
Within the next few days I will do a test from 5% to 100% both with quick charge enabled and disabled.
On a side note I also picked up a 6 foot kevlar wrapped Anker micro USB cable. It feels well made and the connections are nice. I probably wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't on sale but I needed a new long micro USB cable.
So far I'd have to say that if you need another charger and you want Quick Charge 3.0 for another phone then go ahead and grab one. If you don't really need another charger or don't need Quick Charge 3.0 then I wouldn't waste the money on one unless you really want the slightly faster charging for the S7 Edge.

silly noob question alert:
Will qc 3.0 devices, charge the s7 edge at qc 2.0/fast charge rates?
Assuming you used an s7 for your charging experiments above, then it appears they do....thanks for post

No, it will charge at the same speed as a QC 2.0 charger since there S7/S7E don't support QC 3.0
That's exactly what I asked, re qc2.0 but thanks for clarification, I wasn't sure if qc3.0 was 'backwards compatible' kind of thing

It is backwards compatible with QC 2.0. I did a test of those chargers QC 2.0/3.0, Wireless, fast wireless that you can see in my signature. The charge times are identical as you will see.
awesome, cheers dude

Yes, quick charge 3.0 compatible with all qc2.0 supported devices, like S7 edge.
So I search on Amazon and find that Anker, iClever, Aukey released their new quick charge 3.0 usb chargers.
Could you check the numbers with Galaxy Charging Current?
When you refer to the Samsung stock charger, do you mean the wired one or the Samsung Fast Charge wireless charger?

Wired. I have no use for wireless chargers.
Once you go wireless you don't go back. lol I hate wires. I have four wireless chargers. Three were pretty much free. With T-Mobile Jump (phone junkie) I just sell my fast charging cablez and headphones for a few bucks since I don't need anymore. So why didn't Samsung put 3.0 charging in the S7 Edge?
I guess they designed the phone before quick charge 3.0 was available? Maybe it hurt they're bottom line? I don't know but whatever the reason it was a stupid decision.
The reason I don't like wireless chargers is because the only time I ever charge my phone is either in the car or while laying in bed. In both places I like using the phone while it charges.

No, QC has it as part of the SoC, si its supported technically but Samsung chose not to use it for an unknown reason.
They disabled it in the Snap dragon version because the other phone with their own SOC wouldn't support it so to keep the 2 on parity they disabled ours.

Very slow charging (measured with meter)

Model: CLT-AL00 (Dual SIM)
Build: 8.1.0.131 (C675)
Location: India
Chargers tested: Original box charger, Tronsmart Quick Charge 2.0 charger, Choetech Quick Charge 2.0 power bank
How is the charging speed for you guys? It has been over 24 hours since I received this phone and charging is too slow for me.
First of all Huawei cheated us Indians by not bundling supercharger and choosing to include a 9V/2A charger instead. It would have been great if the phone charged at least to that spec.
In 30 minutes, my P20 Pro charges about 14% (i.e. from 4% to 18%). And I wasn't using the phone. I first tried the charger/cable that came with it (upon which the phone displays fast charging) then my old Tronsmart Quick Charge 2.0 charger and finally Choetech QC 2.0 16000mah power bank. Although Huawei does not use QC, it should at least charge on 5V/2A speeds.
I used a USB meter to measure the output and was surprised that the phone uses only 5V/0.8A regardless of whether the screen is on or off. My S8+ uses 8.8V/1.6A (with Tronsmart and Choetech) while the screen is off and 5V/1.5A when the screen is on. At 5V/0.8A speed it could take 3 or 4 hours to charge the massive 4000mah battery.
What about you guys? I am wondering if I have a defective hardware and should replace within the window.
Also considering the phone supposedly uses "AI" everywhere to learn your patterns, did the charging speed improve over time or has it been the same since day 1?
You will only get fast charging with the 1st party charger. Its proprietary technology.

Yep, Supercharger needed. Mine will pull 2A on an Anker QuickCharge 2.0 charger using the original USB cable though.

I understand that. But even 1st party charger is only drawing 5V/0.8A power, just like a 3rd party charger.
Any 2A charger (1st party or not) should be capable of providing at least 5V/1.8A power. But here it isn't, which is why I am wondering if this is an issue with the my particular phone itself.
Does it have this written on the 1st party charger?

We don't get supercharger here in India. We get a 2A fast charger.
you will have to buy a supercharger from ebay.in. I just bought one for INR 1800
Quick charge should still give you at least 40% in 30 minutes. Your phone seems faulty to me
Hi, I have P20 Pro from over a week. I replaced Mate 10 Pro with P20 Pro and I don't understand why P20 Pro charges slower in my car than Mate did.
Mate was charge ~10-15% in 40-60 minutes when connected to car. P20Pro is charging ~2-3% at the same time.
I don't uderstand why. Both of phones have the same battery, the same CPU. That difference with charging exists only in car.
Thanks in advance for any solutions

yes, shows supercharging on lock screen
To know 2 ways how much Ampere it charges, then download app called Ampere it will tell you how much Ampere each charger gives. With SuperCharger it should say around 4500-4800Ampere.
The second way to know it's using supercharge is that it has 2 lightning icons connected in battery icon and that it says supercharge.
I've noticed that even if you have a supercharger, you need to have a proprietary cable AS WELL to get supercharge.
Otherwise you get bog standard charging, which takes about 2 hours to charge (I think. Never charge my phone from 0)
