My N7 has some kind of issue with the battery. I have it plugged into my N6 charger, which charges my N6 VERY quickly but at 20% my N7 says ETA to full charge is 9 hours! This has been happening for a while. Is this just due to crap hardware?
Get the app "Ampere" and verify that your charger is putting out more than the tablet is consuming. First, run the app while not charging to see what the normal discharge rate is. Then plug it in and Ampere will show the charging rate. Your charging rate will always be your charge minus discharge. If your normal discharge is 480mA, and your charger is a 2A, then expect to see about 1500mA of charge rate when plugged in.
Be advised that I have yet to find a charger that puts out what it claims to be. Several of my name brand 1A chargers only put out about 700mA, confirmed with 3 devices using this app and one other. My best (most honest) charger is the 2.1A charger that came with my Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4. The N7's OEM charger is quite good too.

Thanks. I'll check it out later on today. Hopefully this will solve the battery drain when the screen is on and the tablet is charging issue too...
Put your tablet in "airplane" mode or power down the unit, that also helps out without many things running...
To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the Moto X4 can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.

Charges from sub 30% to over 80% in a little over a half an hour.
Charging is on the faster than normal side, but I am not sure the TurboCharge feature is fully implemented... seems to charge just as fast on any 5 volt/3 amp charger as it does with the TurboCharger (which is supposed to ramp up to 12 volts when it negotiates a connection with a supported device)
Confirmed, plugging in a regular 5v/3a charger brings up the same "TurboCharger Connected" toast message as the actual 5/9/12v TurboCharger... and charges just as fast. Something is not working here.
The supplied charger is marked 5V 3A, 9V 1.6A, 12V 1.2A which is 15 watts any way you slice it. So you probably won't notice a big difference IF your charger can really supply 3 amps and the phone can take it. I guess the 12V charge might be a little more efficient, less heat. Previous motorola phones with USB-C (e.g. Droid Moto Z) could take up to 5+ amps using "TurboPower" charger which was NOT QC 3.0, it was something else, so Motorola likes their own branding which may or may not have anything to do with QC 3.0.
Also, for what it's worth, when I plug it into my RAV Power powerbank with a QC 2.0 port, it indicates "TurboPower Connected". When I plug it into the regular "ismart" 2.4 Amp port, it indicates "Charging". I have the same result with an Anker "PowerIQ" charger, it indicates "Charging" using the 2.4 Amp ports. This implies to me that the Qualcom quick charge is doing the job and charging faster than a regular 2.4 Amp charger. When I plug it into a USB-C charger which can supply 5V/3A it indicates "TurboPower Connected". I think that both QC and USB-C allow a sophisticated negotiation of charge rates vs. the dumb USB method using resistors. The TurboPower Connected message therefore indicates that the phone has negotiated the maximum charge rate, which is greater than that allowed by regular USB spec. So, to my eyes it is working as designed and will provide the maximum charge rate using *either* as USB-C charger, or a Qualcom Quick Charge charger.
With the supplied charger, it takes exact 1 hour from 5% to 90% and 25 minutes for last 10%.
help my moto x4 ( is giving problems with fast charging, with the original charger takes more than 12 hours charging and does not finish loading 100%
I take Moto g5 plus and x4 both had 3000mah battery I tried to find charging speed . Then find out x4 charges faster than g5 plus then I researched about that after I found x4 has good thermal so charging speed will be at 3050mA ,4.2 -4.4 volts due to good thermals turbocharging working still 45 -46°c after that it get stopped on other hand g5 plus charged at rate of 2106 mA 4.0-4.2 volts but turbocharging stops at 40°c

takes about half an hour or so as far as I can remember 8/10
Charges really fast, thanks to 18W charger. Although on cable connected to computer, very slow

You compare 9v 2A(18w) vs 5v 0.5A(2.5W) PC usb? ...obviously it's slow with a pc charge

From mathematical standpoint 30 mins for 0-100% is impossible with 18W charger, let me make it a bit clear
It has a 3.800mAh battery or 3.8Ah for short, which means if it had a 5v 3.8A charger it would take 1 hour if the charger and delivery system(cable+chips inside phone etc) were delivering 100% efficiency. Now 5v 3.8A is 19W charger. For half an hour we need 5v 7.6A or 38Watt.
According to Quick charge which is present in this phone it can be charged at 9v 2A or 18W, so even if the phone has 100% efficiency it would take a bit more than 1 hour to complete 0-100% but because each system can't deliver 100% efficiency calculate to 1hr and 1-20 mins give or take
P.S. half an hour, wish but ain't possible unless we have 9v 4.2A charging with 100% efficiency(or 5v 7.6A if you prefer) - Still going to get this phone soon(if price drops to my desire)
Just charged 25% to 100% took around 1 hour
I have here the test i made 100% to 11% took 6h34m SOT, charging from 11% to 49% took 25 minutes from 11% to 82% took 59 minutes, from 11% to 98% took 1h36m.

Just got it yesterday...
Drained it fully so it died...
Then 0 to 53 % in 35 mins flat...
I think the last 10%( from 90 to 100} takes a big effort.
Just tested with LG V20's Fast Charger of 18W.
Fast charging works. confirmed.
But not with OnePlus 3T's Charger.
Will check the same with 5T's Charger and Update.

Did you try charging it with the Oneplus Charger? If yes, could you give us the result in terms of charge time and heating? TIA

Yes OnePlus 3T, 5T does not work.
Also I was charging N7+ from 18% via LG V20's Charger and it got overheated and started malfunctioning. But thankfully there was a circuit breaker and protection circuit in LG's Charger which saved it. Device is working fine too. Now I am using the nokia charger provided in the box as none are working.

So that means if something happens to the current charger provided with the phone, we will have to buy a Nokia branded charger and cable or there would be issues. Hmm

I am usimg my one plus 5T's cable and it is working fine...
I'm using an old HTC charger and a anker quick charger and all work fine.
Well, my Nokia 7 Plus charges quite fast but it gets very hot while charging. Today it overheated and started beeping.
I'm using original Nokia charger that came with the phone.

I also meet this using oem cable. With nokia original cable is no issue.
I just got this device Thursday not a Dual SIM device
It charges fully in about 1hr and 30mins of charging adds quite a bit of power to the battery
if we use a PC it takes ages
is it safe to use fast charge daily?
Can we charge the device by a standard charger having 5v 1 amp rating with the USB type c cable plugged into it?

Yes, i use mine from a tablet at 5v and 1.5A. You can use any charger if it is 5v or if it is turbopower o fastcharge.
I also use my old LG's charger. 5v @1.8A. Im not really that into charging speed. One thing i noticed is that on both chargers when reaching 100% it says charged but still charges for another 15minutes before the charging icon (flash) disappears from the screen. Has anyone else noticed this?

with 27W Charger the phone charges from 0 to 55 percent in about 30 mins and 0-100 percent in about 1Hr 15-20mins.
charging speed depend on battery temperature. fastest charging if temp below 35 degree C, around 3500-3700 mA
The charging speed is damn fast.
Please Notice Me
Hello sir, are you using a flashed global rom?
Guys what about 27 watt sonic charger? Is it worth to buy?
charging rate is very slow when i use the phone while charging....its around 1200mah

Are you serious? My 18watt Charger that comes with the box takes 30mins to reach 50% and takes 1hr 25mins for full charge. Then why 27watt??

in my stock charger it charges 44% in 30mins and 1hr 30mins to full charge. Difference is only about 20% while it should be 50% more faster as 27W is 50% more power of 18W.

You are correct. Difference is just around 20% which is not acceptable.
i've decided not to waste money to buy the 27w charger after watching this..
I have two power delivery charger both capable to charge up to 60w. When I connect phone to both charges doesn't matter which one and which cable I use currently it always display fast charging text and icon. Why it doesn't go on turbo charging? If I know the phone support qc 4.0 and PD and it should turbo charge on my chargers, right? Anyway I noticed 3300-3600 mAh however it doesn't really look charge as fast as in reviews.
Some people reported 4A but according to qc 4.0 specification it's rather about 3A at 9A. What's the real charging voltage for our Xeromi?

It seems Xiaomi uses a proprietary protocol for it's 27W Turbo charge. For now I've not seen any other charger capable of charging it on 27W other than the Xiaomi one.
Chinese people are used to lying. Phone doesn't support qc 4.0 and doesn't weight 190 g. It weight over 200 g (200.5g)
The phone charges at 300-500ma when using pubg even when using a 18w qc3 charger which normally charges at 2800ma. Anyone else facing this bug?

Nope i didn't seen it but mine working great i have usb tester so i can check everything about charging i didn't seen charging at 0.5A
Your saying it charges at 2800ma but this is working actually at charges at 9V & 2A so 18W charging but those ampere & accu battery are showing differently. First i thought they are genuine after i bought USB tester I learned a lesson they are wrong

I tried a Belkin 27W QC 4.0 charger(attached), Macbook Air 30W original Charger and one more 45W Type-C charger.
But non of them shows Turbo Charging. Not even the Quick Charging message comes up when using the original 18W charger.
Saw this charger on AliExpress with a seller who had feedback saying it gives Turbo charging.

Do you have pubg installed & would it be possible for you to check charging current while game is running in foreground please?
Also btw my charger also has a 5v&3A mode so that's why it was showing ~2.8A

It's not a bug i guess... Its a OS thing .. some custom rom uses the force fast charge option... Then the phone will charge fast even we use the phone or play games.. but in stock roms they disabled the force fast charge thing... So when in idle, phone charges around 3000mah but when using the phone it comes down to around 1000mah or even lower while playing games

Fast charging is pretty decent. I enjoy being able to use the fast charging from Samsung plugs as well as Google and even motorola. Some of those kids they don't use the same voltage they call themselves fast charging! Be sure to be aware of the age of the USB-C cable that you have appropriate USB cable...I find that the older usb-c cables tend to throttle the charging speed.
I use the magnetic C to C cables myself. Full speed charging whether AC or car adapter. The next best thing to wireless charging. I bought a couple sets so that one cable stays at work, at home, in the car, and I have a couple spares if I need to take one with me anywhere.
I use a generic usb-c charger that I bought at "5 Below" along with a 10ft usb-c to usb-c braided cable. For $16 total. ($8 each. I know it's called 5 Below, but they have an extended price section in tech. Up to $10-12).
On Ampere, I register 3650ma charge rates. Which is about 20-21 watts @ 5v. Which is interesting to me... Considering both the pixel and the charger are rated at 18w max.
The charger also has an automatic switch to 9v @ 2a, and 12v at 1.5a.
I can charge from 0 to 50% in about 25-30 minutes.
Granted it's no Ferrari by today's high end standards that can fully charge a 4500mah battery in 15 minutes. Lol
It's still not too shabby. And for the price, I don't think I could have done any better.
