Any issues with using Samsung USB C cables/chargers on V20? - LG V20 Questions & Answers

With all the returns and obtaining of phones I've amassed a nice stockpile of Samsung fast chargers and a few Samsung USB C cables(and adapters).
I've read before that USB C allows for non standard use of cables by manufacturers so I'm wondering if anyone has tried or knows if it will be an issue using the said chargers/cables (yes I know the Samsung chargers are only QC 2.0 spec).
I have a QC 3.0 car charger I got from Aukey during a sale. I have some Aukey USB A to USB C cables too that work fine with my Note 7 too.
Trying to see if I need to slowly replace my Samsung chargers with official QC 3.0 wall chargers (will need at least 2)

Here at work I am using my Note 7 charger setup. Left LG flat cable at home.

Are you using OEM Samsung charger and cable?

Thanks for the reply, that puts me a bit at ease. I'll probably still get some QC 3.0 wall chargers but wait until I see a sale from Aukey for one.

Sorry. Side question.
What's the wattage for the US Samsung fast charger?

It's adaptive fast charger and does either 5.0v @ 2A or 9.0v @ 1.67A so 10w or 15w respectively

All QC are backwards compatible. QC 3 will know you are using QC 2 and charge at the rate of QC 2. If you use a QC 3 charger and have a QC 2 device the device will only draw QC 2. So you have nothing to worry about as long as they are QC compliant

Can you use a regular USB charger?

Can you use a regular micro usb charger in place of a 3.0 cable?
Thank you for the help
Yes, no problem. In fact with my S5 there is only a usb 2 cable supplied.

Yup, you sure can.
Just an FYI: The USB3 cable is in fact micro USB as well. It's just the USB3 version of microUSB. The USB3 port on the phone is backward compatible, so a USB2 cable will work just fine in there. :good:
Yep it will work

So which will charge quicker the stock charger or my nexus 7 charger?
I think they are both 2 amp chargers. What is the advantage of the extra plug on the charger?

It's USB 3.0. You'll get faster data transfer speeds when plugged into a USB 3.0 port on a computer.

faster data transfer rate.
OK thanks.
So the charging rate is the same depending on the "block" amps?
I think the USB 3.0 charges faster even if it's still the same 2A charger

It would seem so, yes. In re: max charging amps, it seems that the S5, much like the Note 3, will charge only at 1200mA while the screen is on and 1800mA otherwise. See discussion here: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...48184-galaxy-note-3-max-charging-current.html
To the OP, thanks for starting the thread... I hadn't even realized that the new Micro USB 3.0 connector actually was backwards compatible with the older MicroUSB 2.0 for charging!
Great link thanks!
Yep Confirmed!

Quick Charge 2.0 Accessories

I know Google mentioned the 6P can charge quickly, but I don't recall hearing anything saying "QuickCharge 2.0 compatible". If it is compatible, which accessories are recommended? Based on a quick Amazon search, I've found:
Car Charger
Would it be possible to pair this with a USB A to USB C cable? I need to purchase all new adapters as I was relying on Qi charging pads. I need many new adapters, and just need to know which ones to purchase. Thanks!
I was wondering the same. The charger is 5v/3A rather than variable voltage

Yea... I have the same question.. I have a couple quick charge 2.0s.. can I get a standard usb to usb-c adapter like https://store.google.com/product/usb_type_c_to_usb_standard_a_plug_cable and plug it into quickcharge and will i get quickcharge capabilities?
I have the same question, i think we have to wait some guys to receive the sample and confirm if the Nexus 6P support qualcomm quick charge 2.0
for the car charger, here is my recommend.
You don't need to get another type c cable, just plug and charge.
Didn't Qualcomm announce quick charge 3.0 too?

coming with the 820, I believe
This phone supports USB 3.1 and USB Type-C so therefore it supports the new usb power delivery spec which is capable of up to 100w. If I were to bet money, I would say google is referring to this as "quick charging", not to be confused with Qualcom's implemntation.

Doesn't have 3.1. Still 2.0

Google has stated it does not support QuickCharge 2.0 but just the faster charging that USB C allows for.

You are correct, some tech sites were originally posted that this phone supported USB3. Its now been confirmed that its only USB 2.

You say that the 6P doesn't support "power delivery". How is Google providing 15W to the phone via it's Type-C charger? From what I understand, the pins for Vbus in the Type-C cable/plug is the only way to provide that power? As you can see, I'm a little confused.

Maybe they used their magic to find a better way to do it
**Delete**
Now I'm totally confused... so this doesn't support the same quick charging that's in the current line of micro USB phones, such as the Note 5 and S6? And it doesn't take advantage of the newer USB type C technology that allows for faster charging? So how the heck does it provide a "quick charge" for a quick boost in battery?
Here is a great article explaining Quick Charge and why the 2015 Nexus devices (possibly) do not have it; link

I think the wikipedia page may have been missing something important in what I quoted from them. That "Power Delivery 2.0" doesn't have to be supported for a Type-C cable. Based on the wattage of the new chargers though it does look like Power Delivery 2.0 is being used, just not the full 100 watts that Power Delivery 2.0 does support, but it's definitely over the 7.5 watt limit of usb 3.0.
What's important to note is that Power Delivery 2.0 can be supported on Type C cables with usb 2.0.

Helpful article, just not news I wanted to read.
I have 3 QC 2.0 adapters, and 1 QC 2.0 car charger. Luckily, I did just purchase this http://amzn.com/B0146FK3G0 for $12 using a coupon code. This should charge the Nexus 6P at 15W since it's a native USB-C charger, with an additional QC 2.0 port. Just need to find another wall adapter now.

The specs say that the Type-C port only does 5V/2.4A (12W) so you're not going to get fast charging off of that on your 6P (which needs 15W). You need to find something that does 5V/3A over Type-C.

can google 60W usb C charger charge my nexus 6p?

it is all in the title .
is it safe to use google 60W usb C charger to charge my nexus 6p?
it will be great to use the same charger for both my macbook 12 and nexus 6p
FYI i checked in google store for the specifications, this is the DC output for the 60W charger :

it is not a cheap one . but compared to apple macbook charger, it is a better deal.
Moreover, now you are confirming that it will charge the 6P also, i think it will better than getting a spare charger for each device.
this one has two ports, you can use your own cables and is $20 cheaper. I understand it is less power than the other how ever its more than enough to fast charge the 6P. https://store.google.com/product/usb_c_dual_port_charger

this is excellent for those who are planning to get a USB C power bank as it is possible to charge it through a mico-usb or USB C ports. For sure the type C will charge the power bank faster.
here is an example of a USB C power bank from RAVPower by the way:

Specifications:
Input (Micro): 5V/9V/12V 2A Max
Input (Type-C): 5V/3A Max
USB Output: 5V/ 2.4A
Type-C Output: 5V/3A Max
QC 2.0 Output: 5V/2.4A, 9V/1.5A, 12V/1.2A Max

Then you are not going to get charging as fast as with the standard OEM 25W or 45W Samsung chargers, none of the clones have the same specs as the Samsung OEM units, they have an unusual specification to which the phone is matched. (And only Note 10+ takes advantage of the 45W version.)

I need USB c to USB 3.0 cable to connect the Note to laptop or to Android Auto and for charging with a QC 3.0 charger.
I am using a baseus qc 3.0, 5 ft long, I precisely bought it to connect the phone to my laptop, which lacks the usb C port, charges at 25 W and transfers data well, search for it

Beaseus cable has got only a trasfer rate up to 480MBps.
I have found a VAS-A47 Vention cable and it is the only that has got a transfer rate up to 5Gbps.

General Nothing phone not working with samsung charger

Have a Samsung fast charger, as soon as I connect the nothing phone to the fast charger, it says rapidly charging then instantly says that it's not charging, works with Google's stadia charger but not samsungs.
I'm also going to try my other samsung charger to see if it's just an issue with that specific charger

It says on the output it's 9.0V = 15.0W or 5.0V = 10.0W, but even after the update it still charges normally
The Samsung 45W Super Fast Charger 2.0 (EP-T4510XBEGGB) UK plug works fine with Nothing Phone 1.
But if you go and have a look on Amazon there some decent 45W and above PD3.0 QI4 chargers cheap enough, if that helps you.
