OP3T charger and cable for OP6T? - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

Can I use my old OP3T charger and cable to charge my new OP6T? The old one is still in good condition and I wish to continue using it, keeping the new ones as standby. Is it ok to use the old ones?

I'm using both my 3t and 5t cables with no issues. Same fast speed as always with OnePlus. You shouldn't have any problems.

As long as you use a wrap charge supported cable and charger it should work fine regardless of an old charger/cable

Compare the specs of the Plug/Cable I know the 6T cable is thicker to support the bigger battery. Just don't use any non OEM cable as OnePlus don't follow official Type specification

Galaxy Note without original charger

Hello to everyone!
I have one simple question: do I risk something if I charge the Note with another charger than the original one?
I don-t know, but I think no.
I charged many time my note with htc charger and gs2 charger.

I almosr never use the original charger. I use the charger that came with the bluetooth headset and everything is fine
It doesn't matter what kind of charger you have. The only thing you must look at is the voltage of the source (5V DC) and it must be a micro usb plug

im using my old htc hd2 charger as the samsung one seems to have packed up and isnt charging properly
The easiest way to charge your Note is of course via a USB>Micro USB cord plugged into a laptop or PC (where you are guaranteed the voltage is correct), however if you are using a generic or knock off wall wart charger than provides a micro USB connector there is some small chance that it will not charge your Note.. look for the charging icon and if its not charging, toss the charger and get another.
There is no specific risk to the device, provided that it (the charger) has a micro-usb intended for charging generic devices..its just that some modern portable devices have a stricter requirement (tighter tolerance) for charging voltage and simply will not charge outside that voltage range.. my BB9930 does exactly this..

Since all micro/mini usb chargers have the same voltage, and vary only in the power output - the only problem you could face is slow charging, or no charging at all if the charger doesn't have enough juice. But it certainly won't harm the phone.
I'm using my old Nokia N900 charger without problems
I'm using an old HTC mains-to-USB and a Nokia microUSB cable...
My stock charger has a slight squeal, so I usually use the charger for my BB Curve 9300. Does totally fine.
My Note was purchased from expansys UK but shipped in from mainland Europe. As it was to be sold in the UK, expansys had to supply a UK adapter rather than an EU one ...I received an HTC adapter with my phone. At first, I was worried, but discovered that it works beautifully with my Note. Charges faster than generic Samsung chargers too! You should be fine using another standard charger

For the first 3 weeks I was using a blackberry (original) Bold II charger.
I noticed charge time was too long. And maybe even battery life was shorter.
Im not 100% sure about the second statement but the first is confirmed.
When I started using the Note charger it was faster. Not super fast compared to iPhone or iPad but faster than using the Bold charger.
I never use my samy charger..Im using my DHD charger..no problem at all..

Most modern USB chargers should be fine (I use my old iPhone charger for the Note, for example.) Watch the power output though - some tablet chargers are rated at 2A+ and that could overdrive your charging circuit and cause damage. If you make sure your charger is about 1A (and 5V, obviously) then you should be fine.

Make sure it gives you 1A of output and you are fine!

Well emuX said it all!
1A of output and 5V and you are fine!
Actually the charging current is limited by internal resistance of the battery, so the battery effectively "accepts" charge. Charging current is not "pushed" in by the charger...
obviously a charger from say a BB is likely to be current limited and so longer charging times would be expected, but an iPad charger will work fine.

I am even using a charger meant for my old HTC hehe, powerful enough adapter

I wouldnt worry too much, I charge my note with my iPhone charger purely because the USB port faces a different way so I can actually fit it on my plug extensions without loseing 2 sockets.
Pretty much anything with an output of 5Vdc and a minimum of 1A will do just fine.

lg v20 battery cradle ?

Do you all get the battery cradle woth v20 ? Here in india they are not giving or selling .. Its hard to find it.. Instead of v20 they gave me lg g5 battery cradle as a complimentary(not from lg store) .. But it is not that useful as it could be woth v20 battery kit. Just using it as a usb torch light and power bank device.
That's quite odd. Honestly the battery life is great hence i do not see the need of buying an extra case with battery nevertheless buy it from Amazon.com or alibaba

I ordered this one:

Pretty good so far, accommodates a device with a case and a spare battery. Not a bad cradle for the price.
I have this one, and it works great - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01CS0UVR6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_ragFybB0Z6STF
That thing and a spare battery, and I always have over 100% battery available. Whole reason I wanted this phone over a Samsung ?
Edit: Holy crap, forget mine, I want the one in the preceding post - cheaper AND it'll charge the spare battery at the same time!? I am missing out!

Does this charge a spare battery? Why is it so much more expensive than the one I bought for less features? It IS slicker looking but you can't charge a spare battery.
Nope, it'll take my phone with its case on, but it does not charge a spare battery. It was a gift, so I'm not complaining, but yours looks much better to me.

Alternative charger?

Sorry if this has been asked. Can I use the OEM/stock charger of the Nexus 6p on the LG V20?
I use it and my old charger from note 7 also

Spend a little dough on a nice Anker or Aukey QC3 charger. I've been replacing all of my chargers with those. Worth it

Thank you sir.
Mine works with variety of QC2.0 chargers
Note 7 one (with retail package)
Anker
Tronsmart.
I have charged mine with my brothers stock nexus 6p charger and it charges pretty fast. Havent timed them or anything but its definitely as fast as the stock v20 one. Only problem is if its safe or not since there is that whole debate about Qualcomm's QC 3 not being compliant with the USB Type-C charging standard.

X720 Reliability, how bad is it?

I been thinking about getting this but amazon is full of reviews from people saying it only lasted a month, battery bulged and broke the screen, one guy saying he's on his third replacement, another about how it died and burned his USB cables, etc
Is it that bad? did anyone here got some serious hardware problems with this phone?
This is my first Android phone i have had zero hardware problems, had it over a year now. It was out of commission for 3 months because of a boot loop, but that was my fault, not installing a new Rom correctly. Currently running TURBO's MIAU Destroyer V12 not a single hiccup in 6 months.

Did you try official lineage? how did it go?
If you think its bad why even thinking of buying it? million of phones out there
I have X720 over 6 months it work well. I been flashing everything stock rom, Aicp, Omni, Turbo roms, Tora33 rom and more. Still use it everyday. If you know what you doing with your own it should be fine.
The thing is the Lineage Nougat family rom (non stock) maybe only few of them that work well for example I found AICP Nougat pretty good, I heard good things about Lineage but haven't really try it. You need 1-2 good rom and stick with it should be best.

I've had two.
The fingerprint reader stopped working on the first after one week.
The second has been working fine so far for the last four months.
I have had 727 with no problems at all and I have tried every rom and best results have been 21s stock remove bunch of junk.
Runs perfect.

FP I never have single problem on X720. Try flash latest stock rom it might help.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I already tried the latest stock rom.
The fingerprint reader was working and then suddenly stopped working (LineageOS is installed on the phone), so I assume it's the fingerprint reader that has failed.
If you had asked me a few days ago, I would have said that it's the best phone I have ever owned. The battery last for me 3 days, with 7h SOT on average. I had zero issues ever since I bought it begining of 2017 on sold.
But yesterday, with absolutely no reason at all, when I plugged the cable for charging (original LEECO cable and charger), the USB-C port just burned. It was very fast, as soon as I plugged it, I smelled burn odour. I unplugged, the USB port was hot with burn marks. I tried another cable, burned like the first one.
I have now a phone with less than 15% of battery I cannot recharge anymore. It will go in the trash as soon as I used the remaining battery to retrieve all my data by wifi because there is no aftersale for LEECO anymore. It's a real shame, the phone was really great to use.
I looked over the internet, several people seem to have similar issues lately with this phone. Looks like a hardware problem that just started to appear lately on several devices. Maybe a wrong batch of phones, but it's 300€ for a few month of use only.

Yeah, I can confirm that there are problems with a batch LEX720. My device died while trying to recharge. I plugged in the orginal cable for charging, the device went off and could not be started anymore. Now I am annoyed about the Banggood support. It is really a great device, but not if it only lasts 2 months!
It's sad to hear about your devices dying while charging.
I didn't trust the original cable or the charger. First thing I did was buy a trusted USB A charger, and 56k Ohm USB A to C cable.
It really is an amazing phone (when used with a custom rom) when it works.

Don't use the stock cable, I doubt it's Benson approved or even safe for non-China use. Use a USB-C cable approved by Benson Leung, a Google engineer. Like the stock Google Pixel cable.
USB-C to USB-A has a lot of issues. Many cables aren't made to spec, and can cause fires if you're not careful. Stop using the LeEco stock cable and buy a better one from a reputable brand!
I have 3 LeEco phones, Le Max2 x829, LE Pro3 x720 and Le Pro3 Elite x722, All of them I always use charger and cable that come with the phone. I never have any problem. I sold the Le Max2 recently which was work perfect.
I'm a little scared to use the original charger and cable after reading the horror stories I'll probably start off with my old Nexus 6p charger and cable until I can find a good third party charger and cable!

Before I have Lg V20 use its charger to charge LeEco phones too which work fine without problem. Lg quick charger come with a thick strong cable.
---------- Post added at 03:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 AM ----------
LeEco quick charger come with skinny cable compare to Lg cable.
Got 2 leecos in the house for over a year. The original lead for my pro3 went bad not long ago, where it would keep stopping charging, the charger and the charger and lead for the max 2 are fine though.
Seems it maybe worth buying a lead at least, if your worried.
i replaced the original usb c cable with an ebay one, then it has been working fine for just over a year. great phone. never give any problems.
The stock charger can burn the USB port, which might be a fire hazard. I wouldn't use it personally even if it hasn't happened to you yet. I use my Kindle Fire's wallplug, and Suaoki type C cable. It's cheap and Benson approved.

I've had mine since November of 2016, so a little over a year. None of these issues have popped up. Now, a broken screen can occur to any phone if you drop it. I haven't read the reviews, so not sure about the context.
Other than that my experience has been good, especially as someone coming from the LG G4 (boot looped). Battery life is back to the LG G2 days, so I get well over 6 SOT, and can easily hit 8-9. On wifi battery life is crazy as well.

Battery: Always using the original power brick and cable fast charge not always worki

Hello guys, as the title says. My OP6T not always fast charges despite using the included power brick and cable. No matter if I'm charging at 25% battery left or higher.
My OP6T is only a few weeks old. I'm rooted but using the stock firmware and kernel.
What gives?
Thanks

Have you tried a different charger? I would contact OnePlus support and ask for a new charger. IF that does not fix then it must be the phone.

I have not tried with another brick because it's the only one I have with the amperage required to trigger quick charge.
