Qi charger questions - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I am very tempted to purchase a wireless charger to use with my wonderful nexus 4, however I have a few questions. Firstly does it charge the phone to 100%? I've heard people saying that it stops at 80%. Secondly what is the wireless charger wake lock in 4.3 people have been talking about? Thirdly can anyone recommend a cheapish wireless charger that I can easily purchase in the UK? I would appreciate anyone with a wireless charger to answer with there views. Sorry if this has already been asked I did search but I couldn't find a thread that answered my questions. Thanks in advance

I'm using a Nokia DT-901 wireless charging stand and although its not that cheap (£50) the Nexus fits on it perfectly, it charges to 100% and you can see the screen better when it sits on the stand.

After looking at what you said the nokia DT 900 looks very tempting for £20 less. What are the differences between the 900 and 901?

Hi!
Do you have THIS CHARGER?. Or something like that?

This is the one I have...
http://www.amazon.ca/Position-Inductive-Wireless-Qi-enabled-Charging/dp/B00D8XKPRE/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1382043826&sr=8-12&keywords=qi+charger

To answer your first two questions:
1. I believe it depends on your wireless charger as to how it behaves. The one I've got charges to 100% and then will continue to check the status of charge and essentially continue to trickle charge after hitting 100% so that it stays around that level. I have heard of people saying that once theirs charges to full the charger "turns off", and doesn't keep the battery at "full".
2. As I understand it, the wakelock is to do with a process that runs in the background searching for the wireless charger. It doesn't allow the phone to fully go into deep sleep and thus the battery drains pretty quickly. It's the reason I haven't used my wireless charger in a while - I couldn't be bothered rebooting my phone to kill the process most days.
As for cheap wireless chargers in the UK I can't really answer as I don't live there.
Hope that helps.

Need a car charger that keeps up

I've installed TomTom on my Tilt, but the GPS drains the battery faster than my car charger can charge it. Anyone have a recommendation for a better charger? I ended up using my laptop as a battery to keep the phone alive on a 12 hour trip last week.
What you need is a 1A battery rather than a .5A (which is probably why it can't keep up). Most sellers on ebay don't mention it so you'll have to take the initiatvive to ask them.
What you need is a good official HTC car charger. Cheap one won't charge or as you say won't charge fast enought. My HTC branded one will charge (not only maintain the battery level) my phone even with TomTom on.
Read my post here (and use the serach funtion also , many many many many many many many many (many many many many) similar questions have been asked...)
I bought a few car chargers on ebay and they broke. Since then, I've been using my USB cable with a USB charger adapter and it's been working GREAT!
I have plenty of USB cables sitting around the house so that worked perfectly for me. The USB adapter is only $2.00 shipped. I use Tomtom every day and the USB charger keeps up.

Thanks for the replies. I got mine at an AT&T store - it has a 1350mA battery. I ordered the USB adapter, we'll see if it works.

I don't know what the deal is but the only time I have a problem is when I am streaming media and my brightness is turned up. If you turn down the brightness all the way then I have no problem. I originally had a problem with the OEM battery not charging with some chargers but when I bought a sedio 1600mah battery all the chargers now work. Weird. All I know is that since I upgraded to the 1600 battery things have been better.

I just purchased this one off Ebay - works fine and continues charging with Tomtom running;

T-Mobile HD2 takes too long to recharge the battery

Hello folks, I am very concerned with my HTC HD2 as it takes like over 4 hours to fully recharge the battery. I have got this HD2 from the market here on XDA and it works very good overall, except for this problem when recharging it. I thought it was the charger and I have tried many usb to wall chargers even the the iPhone's 4 one, but nothing has changed.
I have also tried several roms and kernels but nothing has changed on this side as well. I wiped everything and put back win mobile 6.5 T-mobile stock rom, but hey, no difference here too..
I am wondering if there might be something wrong with the phone itself or can it be the battery going in holiday???....
How can I figure this out???
I have downloaded Battery Doctor from the market and it says the battery is in good health, and I get up to 14 hours with a full charge with mytouch 4G rom and kernel rafpigna 1.7 cpu 1.3Ghz OC.
Is anyone else experiencing the same problem ??? do you guys have any suggests ???
This problem is driving me really crazy...

Anyways I was thinking to get the battery extended 2300mah
How many hours does your battery last???
Are you using the original HD2 charger? I have tried many different chargers and they always charge at a different rate. It has to be that, not the battery.

Unfortunately it came with its original charger broken and I have never had the pleasure to try with it.. Anyways I am using a charger that has the same specs of the original one, which is the usb charger of the iPhone 4, and yea same result ...
I have downloaded currentwidget from the market and it gets less than 200mA of current in, when it usually should get around 400mA, sometimes the value goes down to 200mA as well, which makes me really wonder the problem might be the usb port of the phone .
Does a broken battery does that as well??

I think it has to do with the charger you're using . When I charge mine I usually see anything from 500+mA to 700+mA on my battery monitor widget depending on how much charge the battery has, and like Segnale007 said it usually takes about 2 hrs to fully charge.

I can't say it's the battery cause you say it lasts you 14 hours, usb port? maybe. Your battery is good for it to last that much (on averge usage of course). It's the different charger that you're using.

The charger I am using its the iphone 4 charger and just like the original one its a 100-240V ~ 0.2A 50-60HZ , which I have no idea about what it means, but I can guarantee u its the same ..
So, what charger do you suggest me to buy?? I wish it was everything except the phone ...

That's your issue there, 0.2A (aka 200mA).
The UK HD2 charger for example, is 1A (aka 1000mA).
To work out the maximum time it should take to charge the battery:
(capacity x inefficiency factor) / charging current
(1230 x 1.15)/200 = 7 hours
(1230 x 1.15)/1000 = 1.4 hours

That charger only delievers 0.2 A which is 200ma , you need at least a 500ma charger, mine is a 1 A ( 1000 ma ) and its quite normal to see a 700 ma rate while charging..

Take a look on ebay or any local phone shop/online phone accessory shop.
You want a micro usb charger that has an output current of at least 500mA/0.5A
The original HTC ones are 1000mA.
Blackberry ones I've seen are 700mA so they're good enough.
200mA isn't a problem, it won't damage your battery, in fact it will live slightly longer as it's being put under less stress when charging, but don't use your phone while you're charging with it as you'll be drawing more current than the charger can supply.
So for instance, if you wanted a car charger so you could use the phone as a satnav and talk via bluetooth, you'd need a 1A charger to cope with the drain on the battery.

With very, very light use about 55 hrs. That's not extended.
Alright, my dad has managed to temporary fix its original charger and I can confirm there's nothing wrong with the battery and the phone itself. It gets beyond 800mA with the original charger and fully recharge the batter within an hour and half, which is great..
Ok now I have to find a compatible USB to wall charger with the same frequency.
Since its a T-Mobile US HD2 its original charger is american, and since I am in Italy I'd get an Italian standard wall charger. Does the Italian HD2 original wall charger has the same frequency of the american one??
Thanks

battery drain with car usb and gps

Hi
Using today the phone @ 100% brightness with car charger connected and using Sygic / Copilot, I see that my device can't not even charge at the same time that I am using it, but maintain their % of battery. Even with the charger the phone drains battery.
WTF samsung, So i cant make a long travel without running out of battery?
Anyone more with this problem?
PS: My HD2, HD, TyTN2, etc doesn't have this problem with the same car charger, they even charge at the same time.
What's the rating on your charger? I had to swap mine out for a 1A one in order to cope with GPS use in the car. Haven't had a problem since then.
I suspect the one you're using is 750mA or even potentially 500.
I have just had the same problem. I knew i needed a higher amp charger but i thought i would give it a try. The one i used is 650mA, so that's definitely not large enough. The normal 'house' charger is 0.7A (700mA) so in theory that size or above should charge whilst the S2 is being used.
I have a 1200 mA usb adapter for car (a sony ericsson, very very slim one) and I have no issues. You need a decent amount of power for that phone so 650mA will not do, have at least 1000.
http://www.nextag.com/Sony-Ericsson-AN400-Compact-853915153/specs-html
Not sure if this is the exact model but I found it to be the best because it's slim and there is nothing sticking out of the car socket, has a lot of power and I can power any usb device with it.

TomTom recently released a high speed multi charger. I replaced my old car charger with this one as I had a similar slow charge problem. Never had a problem ever since. All my weapons are always fully loaded with enough power! Expensive though!
http://www.tomtom.com/en_gb/product...-cables/high-speed-multi-charger-9UUC.001.04/
If someone is using a cheap higher-powered mains adaptor without issue, could you please post a (UK) link? Also if anyone knows of a cheaper alternative to the £20 car charger that would be great too!
I had same problem.I bought Samsung charger and no problem after

2.1 Amp TomTom charger is way too much for this device. Samsung wall charger is only rated at 750mA, but someone even found out that in source level Samsung has limited the power current at only 650mA.
With 1 Amp (1000mA) top quality car charger, the phone lost charge while using Navigation on full brightness.
Very slow charging in general for this phone.

When you have the car charger plugged into the phone go into Settings/About phone/Status & look at "Battery status"; it should tell you if the phone thinks it's plugged into a USB port (in which case the phone will draw only 450 mA) or an AC charger (from which the phone will draw 650 mA). These limits are built into the Samsung ROM, presumably to keep the phone cool and/or extend the battery's lifespan. They could be overridden (especially the AC charger current limit) in a custom ROM.
Absent a custom ROM, if the Status display says you're connected to a USB port, you could try a different charger, or connecting USB pins 2 & 3 (the two center pins on the USB A connector) together. That's how the phone decides if it's connected to a USB port or AC charger -- the low-resistance (less than 200 ohm) connection between the two USB data pins is the key. The spec calls for 200 ohms resistance between the data pins, but some of the low-end high current chargers I've seen just have a direct short.
If that doesn't work, or if the Status display says you're charging off AC, then try some of the other battery-life tricks documented here in the forums; they should reduce the device's draw from the battery, allowing the charger to do its job.
Wow, this is kind of disappointing i have to say. I have noticed the USB charging is incredibly slow. You can't ever rely on it, i think it would take close to 5 hrs to fully charge from USB, that's insane! By mains it's somewhere between 2 and 3, but that's still way too high.
I take it if you buy a higher-powered mains adaptor (not one for the car) then we'd definitely get the benefits of a faster charge? Can someone post a link to one they are using and know works faster that the stock one?
Cheers
I ll try ur tricks guyz.
for the time being this is my situation (and it sux):
-car charger 1A 5v
-slow chargin and hot device
-using navigator equals : phone burns, drains battery and in the worst scenario freezes
yesterday I received a call while phone plugged into car charger with navigator session. wot happened is phone freezed (screen didnt switch off) and I saw PROXIMITY SENSOR WAS RED!

The first post got me worried for a while, but this info has put me back to ease. Pre-ordered the GS2 (India) and getting the original Samsung charger along as a freebie.
Yeah, i have simelar experience with the samsung s2 in my car.
Its eating the battery even when its plugged in and i think i have a good charger..
I found 1 solution.. I use now copilot, you can set different setting to disable the screen automatically when you drive a straigt forward for some kilometres, only when you need to turn it comes up again.
thats how i set it and it loads a little, but bad anyway.
Maybe thats what the + means in Super Amoled + (+batteryusage)

There's plenty about it in the wireless charging orb thread, pages in fact, take a look there for info
look on play/ebay for maxell air voltage - £39.99 thats pretty much your lot at the moment, there are some generic Chinese items starting to show up too.
As Higgsy says your options are extremely limited at the moment in the UK and the only one "readily available" is the Maxell Qi charger. A company called SmartGear Ltd UK is selling the Maxell one (I purchased one and it works great). Here are the relevant links :-
http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/...0-LG-Nexus-4-Google-Nexus/ListingDetails.html
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Maxell-Ai...ories_MobilePhoneChargers&hash=item4abf0ef238
Both links are from the SAME seller so it depends on where you feel more comfortable buying from.
Bitmore do one as well but I've only just registered this username so I can't post the link until I have 10 posts (for christ's sake)
Google "Bitmore Charging pad" and you'll find it - 40 quid also
There's a thread on this over at modaco. I'd post the linky but....

Its not a gimmick at all mate, it works great and my phone is always topped up nicely. If I want to use the phone I pick it up off the charger and use it - once I've finished I chuck it back on the charger, which is where it stays until I pick it up next time, meaning its constantly topped up. I still have a standard usb charger as a back up in the bedroom and at work, however I have only needed to user this once since getting the wireless mat.
You need to experience using it to appreciate the benefits.
Just got the Maxell Qi charger this morning. Seems to charge my Nexus 4 fine but doesn't respect the "Stay awake" developer option.
Is there any way to keep the screen on whilst wirelessly charging, so I can use Daydream or keep track of notifications?

Hm I had no problem with the phone using daydream and Maxell. Have you got the option "when to daydream" ticked for "while charging" ?
I personally do not use daydreaming with wireless charging because A) it increases the time it takes for the wireless charger to charge your phone if you have the screen on constantly (which is what daydream does) and B) I was extremely uncomfortable with the amount of heat generated with wireless charging + the daydream option enabled. When I wirelessly charge with daydream running my phone hits 45c, if I wireless charge with daydream turned off my phone never goes above 36c. There is clearly a problem with daydream using way too much power and I hope Google fix it.
Those poo pooing wireless charging really need to be more open minded. This is NOT a gimmick it is a very useful feature, just having the ability to plonk the phone down and it automatically charges is a huge convenience it is on a par with "remote controls for TV's" Yes you don't need a remote control for your TV you can easily get up and change the channel with the buttons on the TV however a remote control these days is better and far more convenient and it is the same with wireless charging. Sure you can use USB charging but wireless charging is more convenient and leads you into a habit of always having your phone charging so it will always have a decent level of charge in it thus negating the fact you can't use it whilst it is charging.

Cheers, I've got Daydream working now, although I can't get the screen to stay on like when it's plugged in. I think you're right about Daydream though - having the screen on does slow down the charging rate...

Why on earth was fast charging disabled for this nexus?

*Deleted*
They didn't disable anything - it doesn't have the Qualicom Quick Charge variant, but it does have it's own variant of a rapid charge.
Using two wall chargers I have here and a Benson certified USB-C Cable, one of the wall chargers support QC2.0 and the other QC3.0. Both charged "normally" reporting on the screen as "Charging".
Using the stock USB-C wall charger that came with my 6P, using EX Kernel and the stock kernel from January 8.1 stock ROM, both reported "Charging Rapidly". I switched kernels using EXKM and a backup of the stock Kernel to test this.
Also, I bought a Tronsmart USB-C Car Charger, and it too reports "Charging Rapidly".

Hey everyone,
So I got my nexus 3 Months ago, I just found out NOW that it is not fast charging at all. I bought a new ANKER charger and wire with it and its just charging slowly which got me really annoyed as I wasted money on it because I thought it had nothing to do with the phone at all. I did some digging around and the maker of franco kernel found out that bloody google disabled the bloody fast charging on the 6P?! What kind of solution is that? I mean they could of at least gave us options on whether to disable or enable it in the phone. Is there ANY way to get fast charging enabled on this phone?

Nexus 6p just charges at a higher amperage then most average phones. As long as you use a charger with 5V/3A you should get charging rapidly. Just remember as the battery percentage increases the amps get lower. Use an app like ampere to make sure your getting close to 3000mA. I think the highest charge I seen on the stock plug was like 2800mA.
Well I bought an ANKER Charger and usb cable with it which definitely says it is fast charging compatible. When it comes to charging my phone I got a small text on my lock screen showing me how much charge there is going to the phone while charging. The average charging mAh is 1,400 and the voltage is 4.3V. I am pretty sure that it has reached a higher charge rate....I'll have to keep an eye on it. Do you think thats an acceptable charging rate?
It's not just about amperage, because some of their chargers are a whopping 8A - https://www.anker.com/ca/products/108/203/Wall-Chargers
Anker doesn't support the variant of rapid charging that the 6P accepts, therefore it only will negotiate down to a normal "charging" rate, which IIRC is exactly what you're getting.

I'm having this problem too. I used to be able to rapid charge using anker usb c to usb c but now it just seems to charge normally not rapid charge.
Anyone know of a fix, let me know.
