Using a 2.1A charger and not playing on it while it's charging, probably 3 hours top from 0%. That's roughly what it was with mine about a week ago, I think I have the battery history still logged in battery monitor widget pro, if I do I'll dig em up for exactness.

About 3 hours from empty to full charged with stock charger on mine.

With the stock charger, about 3 hours, maybe a little over.

Yep bout 3 hours here also for a full charge.

Hmmm actually mine is charging from 0% to 100% in 3.5-4 hours... weird

I bought the stock dock,and sometimes charging is super slow if I don't get it seated perfectly. That problem aside, does anyone use the dock, and what are their charging times please?

[Q] How much time it takes to charge N4?

Using the provided AC charger in the box.
Well depends from how dead the phone is. My phone completely died, and it took about 3 hours I think to get somewhere over 50%

There's no way any phone or device on the planet takes 3hrs to get to 50%
I'd wait for another response

I believe it takes 3 hours to charge from dead to full according to Anandtech.

Thats sucks majorly as well. :S
Da **** is wrong with google? I thought the nexus S and galaxy nexus were slow charging due to them being samsung phones. This is total deal breaker for me. My friends optimus 2X charges in around 45 minutes, the 2100mah battery does not justify taking more than 3x the time.

Eh?
My ONE X takes 2.5-3hrs from dead, and its 1800mah
3hrs is as expected.

The GS3 charges in less than 2hours so obviously the one X has a messed up charging time as well.

I'll test mine speciifcally for this later but i'm fairly confident most of these posters are crazy, from what i've noticed I'm generally full in like 2 hours.

I'll be waiting.
3 hours is totally normal... I never had a android phone that charges under 3 hours... I wouldn't worry about it.
Maybe the nexus 7 charger will charge it a little faster since it uses 2a instead of 1a?

looks like people who are having charging issues (me included), the charger provided by LG is defective.
I've been charging mine through the wall charger and it says (USB)... it should say AC.. i changed to a samsung charger and now it says AC.
USB charging is really slow due to low amperage compared to wall charging.
The poster who mentioned 3hrs for 50% from a completely dead phone sounds about right for USB charging.

Weird battery charging.....

Hi guys, I received my Nexus this Monday and I'm loving it but I noticed something weird today.
So last night put my phone on charge at around 17% and used it for about 30mins.i checked how much it had charged via the battery indicator in the notification bar and it still showed only 17% even though the battery bar had the thunder bolt through it.
Ok so the phone has been on charge all night, approx 8 hours. To my surprise its only 67% now! Still showing the charging battery icon. I don't understand what is going on?
Can anyone tell me what's up?
I'm currently still using my HTC Desire HD charger.
Thanks

I think the problem was my usb extention! Bummer, now I gotta deal with a short wire till I find a longer one. I'll report back if the problem persists

R: Weird battery charging.....
I had a similar issue tonight.
I plugged in the usb cable with 9% of battery left (stock charger),and the
battery icon became instantly 100% (full charge!) in about 4 seconds...:what:
So i left it in charge for all night,and an hour ago (6:15),it was showing 78% (???).
I have never experienced something like this before...

This has been reported more often. It's pretty odd, seems something in the battery controllers goes a bit nuts. I hope it's simply a software/firmware thing.
My N4 hasn't displayed this behaviour over the month that I've had it for.
Gotta say I haven't experienced this yet but thanks for your post

Stock charger sucks, It has deep problems. I noticed last night, I connected the charger and under settings/battery it showed as USB charging. Using franco kernel app, I forced fast charge, woke up like 4 am and phone charged 5% (4 hours later). I unplugged, disable fast charge and now it charges fast as a regular standard charger.
I was using my old blackberry charger, since stock is really bad, it's being blamed even to the red light of death... I don't know..
R: Weird battery charging.....
I've searched for some infos,and found this:http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_polymer_battery
Look at the "Charging" section.

Just as an update, my phone has been charging pretty well since I removed the usb extention cable. I have invested in a 2 meter length micro usb cable and hopefully that will deal with my need for a longer cable and not hinder my night time charging. I'll let you guys know how it goes
Thanks neo for your research....

Same hapend to me, when phone got discharged, dead instantainly...
So i RMA..
I too decided to try a usb extension as the wire was too short for me..
Since ive started using the extension by battery or battery reporting has really been weird.
Sometimes itll say USB charging although it is still through AC
It will take like 6 hours to charge
And battery reporting and discharging will be completely off

Yesterday I had the Nexus (with 30% battery left) connected to my pc's usb to charge it,after 5 seconds,it shows "Full charge"...:what:
So i decided to left it connected...and after 10 minutes,all returned normal,charging became normal starting from 35%...
Weird,but I think all this is normal,cause of the Li-po battery nature.

This has been happening to me and unplugging it and plugging it back in usually fixes it.

How long does it take to full charge your phone?

Im on stock 4.2.2 with Matr1x kernal...mine takes too damn long
This isnt a new device so not the first run obviously... And had this problem on full stock aswell...using the original LG charger.
Takes around 5+ hours to full charge from 25% to 100%
Its not a biggie since i plug this is in before going to sleep and by the time i wake up in the morning (around 7 hours ) its fully charged...but i just want to know is it a hardware problem only in mine?? Or a common issue??

next time you charge, go to the phones main settings, about phone, status.. check if its connecting/charging as usb or ac. usb takes longer to fully charge than ac.

about 3+ hours on the wall charger i guess, 5+ hours if i was plugged into my laptop. try another charger with the right amperage. or try another usb chord with that charger.
Mines about 2 hours wall 3 hours USB...

It only takes 3 to 4 hours to charge my phone by using the original LG charger.
around 2-3 hrs with wall charger and 6-7 hrs with USB.
3 to 4 hours charging from the wall and about 6 charging from USB. I'd suggest swapping out the charger your using and see if that makes a difference.
3.3 hours from under 20% to 100

Seems like it varies device by device... My cousin's nex 4 takes around 5 hours...
And i think ROM and the kernal has nothing to do with it
Bdw im so glad to see such a helpful community here...never expected it

The LG original charger that came with the phone kept randomly ticking from AC to permanent USB charging on the wall. I switched chargers and it stays on AC now.
there's been a few issues with the stock charger, some are inferior to others, I charge mine while I sleep, but my old lg charger is alot better, same with iphone charger
Mine takes more than 3 hours on wall charing

Wall charging: 2h20m from 8% to full of course.

You must have a magical charger. Mine charges in about 2 hours with the stock charger at 1800 mah rate (max stock rate).

Mine charges faster than my Note 2 but not that fast. In general I am happy with the improvements seen.
It's strange that yours charges so fast? Most of the stuff I've read so far for charging with the stock N3 wall charger is that they're charging at around 35%/hr
How's yours doing so fast??

1 to 100 took me 2hrs and 15 minutes charging time.. but after 10 minutes idle of the phone, the battery went down to 98percent and stop there

I would have to say this is defiantly a understated feature of this phone! I mean it charges soooo much faster than the N2 did! Faster than any phone I have ever had! Amazing!
I have the same experience as the OP.. The phone charges pretty fast if your using the stock charger and cable

Mines charges under an hour from 10% down to fully charged especially if you don't use the phone while it's charging and even then my phone does the job. I'm pretty sure it varies phone to phone so take this with a grain of salt.

Can the note 3 battery be used in the note 2 and i717
i'm asking because i tried the s3 into my note an it worked perfectly I was wondering if I can buy an oem battery an for the note 3 an put it in my note 1
its possible
I have the same experience as OP. We need some hard data on this. What's the best app for monitoring charging? I use system monitor. I love the battery graph in my pull down menu. I'll post a screen shot from a full charge whenever I get a chance. (I have 87% now so it'll be awhile unless I find something good to download on thepiratebay)

Battery charging time

How long would it typically take to charge from 10% to 100%?
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium
It takes mine about an hour or so to get from the battery low warning to 100%. But my charging hole is slowly breaking, even though I've only had this device for about a month. So, sometimes it varies.
Strange mine takes five hours to charge. Wonder what it could be? Can u upload pic of your USB cable to make sure I have the same one.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Mine takes about 5-6 hours, stock rooted 4.4.2 rom and mine is nexus 7 2012. It hasn't been slow like this since the update of 4.3
