******Sorry.. Should Have Posted This In Question & Answer Section*******
Hey guys.
I was wondering if their is a kernel that support USB Fast Charging.
I have a Pioneer AppRadio which connects via MHL to mirror my phone to the radio in the car.
The phone loses a great amount of battery through this even though the MHL is powered.
However the phone sees the MHL as a USB charging device and therefore limits charging to 500ma which sucks.
Other phones have kernel support for USB fast charging and they can charge at the rate of 1000ma - 2000ma so that they can charge the phone and use MHL.
Someone please help me solve this problem.
Thanks! :laugh:

Their is not.
SpeedMod charges faster than the stock kernel.
Actually NX kernel supports that.
I do not beleive it supports mhl though.
And its for cm 10.1

Not sure if there was fast charge in NX tweaks app. Just to control the current..
It is possible to charge faster, but I prever not too, It produces more heat and can damage your device.
NX-Kernel by Neo allows you to do that.
I think this only works with the 230V/115V charger, computers can't charge faster than 500mA, USB 2.0 doesn't allow you to charge with a higher current.
Thanks for the replies..
So why is it that other phones have Fast Charge kernels but the Note does not (okay only 1 CM kernel) ?
Can any devs support this?

Note is doomed from the very beginning...
So let's make this very clear. The Galaxy Note can (and will) use more power than it can ever draw from the charger ?
Doesn't the official charger somehow trick the device into using the full 1 Amp of current instead of the half amp ?
Hello everyone,
my phone is charging with only max 1A, when my charger gives more power. How to remove limit in my phone to get more intensity?
I don't think it is possible. The charging circuit within the phone only lets 1 amp in.
Fast Charge is a hardware limit too?

I am not really sure but it can be managed in the kernel if the hardware supports and fast charging is not supported by this phone. Btw Im not 100% sure
I believe the feature has to be in the SoC, as well as implemented in the kernel for it to work. I know with the Redmi Note 3 quick charging was not supported in the original firmware, but since the Snapdragon 650 supported QC 2, custom kernels were able to use it. The Snapdragon 410 doesn't have quick charge capability to my knowledge.
EDIT
It appears the 410 does support quick charging, and the OEM has to support it. Wether that means A software or hardware implementation, I'm not sure. So maybe it is possible for a custom kernel to implement the feature. But there is not any kernel I know of right now that allows it
Our snapdragon 410 supports quick charge 2.0, is some hardware limitation in our device that dosn't allow to charge at a higher speed? the battery needs to be compatible? etc

Our battery only receives 5V/1A.
You need a 1.5 Ampere Quick Charge enabled charger to use that feature.
Xiaomi ships two kinds of chargers with the Redmi 2 ( based on region) : one is a 1.5A QC2. 0 charger and one is a 1.0A QC charger.
If you're looking to buy one, I'd recommend Microsoft Fast Charger
It can be enabled through kernel modifications.
As Redmi Note 3 has got the feature through Franco kernel.
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.
Hello, i have an aukey usb quick charge 3 charger and now that i have a new xiaomi mi a1 i bought a nillkin usb type c 3.0 quick charge cable.
Even tho i have a charger and a data cable compatible with quick charge, when i charge it says "charging", not fast charging, i don't even sense a notisable decrease of charging time.
So i am doing somethong wrong? It is suppose that with oreo update quick charge is aviable on the mi a1.
tired reply , please search.
The 'fast charging' message was a bug. Congrats. U just waste money
Sad to break it to you, but the phone doesn't support Quick Charge 3.0
Who except pajeet analphabete on Indian blog said it was supposed to get QC?
I've read that one of the Oreo beta builds had quick charging enabled by mistake and Xiaomi removed it later, this is when/where rumors started. No idea if that's true though..
There is a quite big difference between "fast charge" and "quick charge" (by qualcomm). Quick Charge will not be enabled on those phones as qualcomm wants money for each device that uses it. However in oreo we have "fast charge" enabled.... also to have quick charge you'll need charger that has the qualcomm chip in it... and for the fast charge again you'll need charger that supports fast charge(basically that it is more powerful - 34W and up).
And remember it is android one device so it is as close to the aosp as possible and many of the settings are up to google to change (like the cam api 2)
I don't get the fuss around this "fast" charge "enabled" thingy. I'm using a nexus 5x charger since day 0 (back when only displayed "charging") because i've bought it as a replacement for my nexus 5x.
So, the output of the 5x charger has 3A . Now pay attention, the A1 (at least mine and i don't think i got a special edition) was charging with 2A out of the box (nougat) and also after oreo update, period.
Mi a1 does have sd625 which supports fast charging but xiaomi hasnt enabled it cause enabling that will make xiaomi pay some loyalty to snapdragon. So they didn't enable it. NO FAST CHARGING ON MI A1
This thread reminds me of countles indian videos trying to prove redmi phones support fast charging by comparing charging speeds between stock 1A chargers an qc2/3 ones. Good stuff
With custom roms and root, could you re-enable it? Yes.

Redmi note 5 has the icon of fast charging with micro usb, but Mi A1 with usb C does not, lol. My phone Mi A1 charges fully within 1 hour from 1%(would say... 40min) with an aukey QC 3.0 and a blitzwolf amp usb cable.

Don't worry about people bragging ie lying about how their phones charge up faster with quick charge. Or some sort of forced charging is going on which isn't good for the lifespan of the battery. Samsung allows users to turn off fast charging in the settings to reduce excessive heat which says something about fast charging.
So you guys are saying it doesn't support Quick Charge™. But I just downloaded CPU-Z for fun and it read the fact that the MI A1 - My unit at least runs Snapdragon 626 as opposed to what GSMArena says (625) and according to this article it is supposed to support it. I don't have a fast enough charger - Never thought I'd need one since the phone supposedly doesn't support fast charging, but if it runs 626 it might. If I can edit this post I'll add a screenshot from the phone in a moment.
Can't seem to add the screen shot, so here's the link to it:

yes. I'm using a motorola turbo power charger and a magisk module 'force fast charge'. getting ~2000mA.
The phone has the available hardware for fast charging but xiaomi disabled it, it should be coming soon in oreo or pie

I tried that module, but don't see any difference. Plus, I don't see the force fast charge folder in solid explorer anywhere!

depends on your charger. :good:
Dang, I JUST BOUGHT 5. QC3 chargers!!!
... I just read on some other forms that the mean one supports fast charging qc3 charger I bought a bunch of chargers. does anyone know will queue c3 chargers work on all types of phones and devices even if they don't have any Qualcomm chip in them will they still charge at your 1 amp or 2 amp speed?? and that's question does anybody know what happened to the license agreement between called come and show me about working out the deal to get the Alt-X low-latency and the Ap-X codec license agreement???
