I've searched and google searched. Can't find any discussions or current kernels supporting quick charge 2.0. I just received my s5 yesterday and assumed someone would have figured out how to enable our qualcom chip for quick charging... Am I missing something or is this not possible?
Thanks!

Maybe I need to clarify... I understand the S5 isn't quick charge capable out of the box for some reason, but the Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 chip is supposed to be capable(quotes below). If we're rooted and are able to use modified/custom kernels, is there some reason we haven't enabled quick charge? I saw one kernel that is supposedly dead which had supported "fast charging". I found only one other kernel, which listed nothing about fast charging or quick charging. I've already read all of those google search links which are old and have some reference for the ability(below quote). According to another post on XDA, a Japanese carrier has enabled it...
XDA member timeToy:
" Quick charge 2.0 feature itself is part of the Snapdragon 801 CPU https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/processors/801
DoCoMo (Japan carrier) has officially enabled the Quick Charge 2.0 on their handsets, including the Galaxy S5. The power adapter is for sure different, and I am not aware of any firmware change."
"Despite the Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900V) CPU (Qualcomm Snapdragon 801) being listed as Quick Charge 2.0 capable on Qualcomm’s site and claims to that effect on various blogs, the phone doesn’t support the charging standard in testing."

I see your point now.
But is QC2 really that much faster than USB 3.0 charging? Doesn't seem so, so maybe it's just not worth it for developers, if it's actually capable...

QC 2.0 is supposed to charge a 3300mA battery 0% to 60% in 30mins... I haven't tested USB 3.0 charge times since I received yesterday, but I'm guessing it's not as fast. What's your round about charge time?
I'll test charge time with OEM cable to USB 3.0 on my computer and using the OEM cable and wall charger and see what I get.

with USB3.0, my S5 charges at about the speed advertised for QC2. It's a wash man, just let it go...
Just to stop the confusion and back and forth about this topic.
LG has confirmed that, yes, the G4 does support Quick Charge 2.0. The company tells Pocketnow that while it didn’t set out with plans to support the feature, the inclusion of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 808 processor in the G4 means that the phone does technically support it. The bad news is that the G4’s in-box wall charger doesn’t support Quick Charge 2.0, so you’re going to need a new wall wart — such as the Motorola Turbo Charger — if you want to juice up your G4 in a hurry.

Ok thanks for the confirmation.....
Are there many manufacturers which provides the 2.0 charger with the device?
Yeah the issue was it out of the box it has neither.
To wireless charge you need a case or a sticker. To fast charge you need to buy your own charger. So when a reviewer gets the phone out of the box neither of these are available and that's where the confusion came from. Good conformation nevertheless.
I'm glad there's a thread about it, hopefully it doesn't drive the price higher on the device once officially released They are competing to get Samsung and Apple users for the most part. All these favorable reviews and positive feedback Internet Wide should do the trick.
Honestly I was aiming towards the Galaxy S6 myself but am glad I held off until the G4 was officially out. Unless there's a serious problem with the the device I am 99.9% sure that this will be my next smartphone.
Even current Galaxy S6 users are looking at the G4 and that is saying a lot.

Yeah but the weird thing is I have the nexus 2.0 charger and even with that it doesn't quick charge like my nexus.
I am thinking it will be a software update with changes to the kernel.

Its possible, that reviewer on the video Ive posted could have already updated the software. Do you have another quick charge cable you can try it on, maybe a Samsung one?
LG was surprised themselves its working on their units.
"LG has confirmed that, yes, the G4 does support Quick Charge 2.0. The company tells Pocketnow that while it didn’t set out with plans to support the feature, the inclusion of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 808 processor in the G4 means that the phone does technically support it."
I read that LG said that Quick Charge will be enabled in the software the G4 is officially released with. Since the reviewers have pre-release software they don't have it.
The Android Central podcast said they tried the Motorola Turbo Charger with the G4, but the phone said an unknown charger was connected and to charge at full speed use the LG charger.
So can someone provide a link to turbo chargers or manufacturer and model of charges that support this?
The reason why i assume is that the Kernel doesn't have the feature integrated yet or it isn't enabled
Code:
.method private setQuickCharging(I)V
is in com.lge.services.jar.out\smali\com\android\server\power\PowerManagerServiceEx.smali which i found when comparing the G4 with the G3 frameworks, it is located on line 3100 if you wan't to check it out, however i ain't sure if this is somehow "disabeld" or if it just lies there and waiting for it to be enabled.

So can we all agree - at least in USA - that QC is not actually turned on yet. I kind of thought it would be on, since the acknowledged the chip/phone was capable, but we need to buy our own adaptors. Well, I bought a few QC 2.0 plugs, but I'd say they are doing nothing (I have never had QC 2.0 so not entirely sure what to look for other than "faster" charging - which does not seem to happen). Apparently they acknowledged too late in the shipping cycle to actually update the device to accept QC 2.0. BTW, I have seen companies, even in the ship cycle, send an update to devices so when you got them, they updated when started up.
I've been using my 2.0 charger that I bought from amazon for my Z3 and it is indeed working. phone charges at slightly faster than a percentage point a minute.

Yup its just not active. And the new M feature doze. is a joke its in the framework of Android 5.0 of both G3 and G4 not sure if active though
So.. I'm confused. I got the phone last night and it took like 9 hours to fully charge to 100%.
I don't get my QC 2.0 charger until next week, but ... is it confirmed that it isn't activated?

No simply that the phone's chip supports it but you need the proper charger for it.
It shouldn't take 9 hours even with the out of the box charger, more like 2 hours maximum.
The European H815 will charge at 9V, but the LG G4 draws nothing like the current which other Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 devices do.

I'm reading from other threads that it's normal to have slow charges the first few times..
Is this not accurate? That was literally my first charge.
No phone I have ever owned has charged slowly the first few times.
If you are using the stock cable/charger something is either faulty or they just didn't handshake together properly. I have had that happen a few times, not regularly though.
Like I say using the standard charger it should take around 120mins, you will only save 20mins or so at the moment by using an Aukey charger.

Thanks for the information. Is it safe to assume that this is just a guess or an estimate, since you haven't actually used a QC 2.0 charger on the G4? Or is this proven by your device?
The only reason why I question is because there are a lot of G4 users on QC 2.0 chargers who are stating that they are having great experience with their charge times in comparison to the stock charger.
By stating that it's a 100 min with a QC 2.0 vs 120 min with a 1.8V charger, you're not talking about much of a difference.
Hi all,
Does anyone know of any charger with improved charge time for the P8? I was looking at purchasing a quick charger such as the one below in order to improve P8 charging time, but I am aware the device is not Qualcomm quickcharge certified.
Aukey Quick Charge 2.0
Thanks,
Robin
Can a mod please move this to the Huawei P8 forum?
Hi, probably too late to reply to this, but may help others with a similar query.
I was looking for a QC myself recently for my P8, but came across 2 reviews (on Anandtech & Recombu) that said no matter which charger they used, it didn't make any difference.
Also, another review (Notebookcheck) said QC is not supported, so that should be the reason why.
The internal IC stabilizer for battery charging does not support fast charging. From the other side is good because this will conserve battery life...
So I bought a Qualcomm certified quick charger 2.0 today and I noticed it didn't really make any difference
So can anybody tell me whether it is supported ? If yes then how can I enable it ,if no then is there any kernel or ROM to enable it
Thank you
HTC Butterfly 2
HTC Desire Eye
HTC One (M8)
HTC One (M9)
Only these HTC devices have quickcharge 2.0 support by default.
So no, our device doesnt.
It's no true. On Qualcomm website it stands that quick charge is supported in Snapdragon 615 which is in Desire 820.

You know guys... When I charge with 2A charger I fell that my phone charge faster
Sent from my HTC Desire 820 using XDA Free mobile app
Quick charge is kernel related.
We have to wait for mm, than someone can build a custom kernel with Quick Charge, 2tap to wake etc.
okay so i tried charging my phone (desire 820 ) with the quick charger and it charged way faster than the stock charger ,but it was not as fast as my s5
after 30 mins desire 820 charged around 12% with stock charger but with quick charger it charged around 25-28% but s5 charged around 42-45%.
Which HTC Desire 820 you have? Version S have MediaTek chipset. All other versions have Snapdragon.

The Xiaomi India website doesn't mentions that it supports Qualcomm Quick Charge but there are some people who are saying that it supports Q.C. 1.0/2.0 and some even saying that it supports 3.0.
And the Xiaomi website states that “[it] Comes with 5V/2A quick charging to charge and go with minimal downtime.”. Interestingly enough, Quick Charge 1.0 also charges at 5V/2A.
Has anyone tried charging with Qualcomm Certified chargers and is there any long term issue like battery inflating, poor battery backup, etc?
And if it does work then what are the things I should be looking in a charger when buying apart from Qualcomm certified chargers?
The soc of our device does support quick charge, but to enable it, we need a suitable kernel
I think it's enabled on MIUI developer rom.

Yes. Some say that latest beta update miui 8.2.5 has total charging period of 2.5hr.
As per the super moderator in MIUI forum the Dev rom supports QC 2.0 and charging time is less than 2 Hrs.
