My Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 is taking too long to charge. Earlier, when I started charging it, it would first show 'charging slowly', then 'charging' and then 'charging fast'. Now it is always charges slowly.
I searched around and followed the advice of trying another cable, but the problem persists, so it's not a problem with the cable, but with the stock charger. I borrowed a friend's Poco M2 Pro's charger. The specifications of that charger are:
Model MDY-11-EL
Input: 100-200V ~ 50/60 Hz ~ 0.5A
Output: 5V~3A / 9V~2A / 12 1.5A
Input: 200-240V ~ 50/60HZ ~ 0.6A
Output: 5V~3A / 9V~3A / 12V~2.25A / 20V~1.35A/11V~3A Max
The Asus stock charger is
Input: 100-240V ~ 50/60 Hz ~ 0.3A
Output: 5V~2A
When I used the Poco charger using the Poco charger but the Asus stock cable, the mobile started charging quickly, also showing 'charging fast'. This means the stock charger is damaged, and needs to be replaced.
From what I've understood, a fast charger doesn't make any difference as there are limits to what the mobile/battery can accept. Is the same true for the Max Pro M1 as well - meaning a fast charger can be used without any fast charging benefits (meaning same stock charging speed) BUT WITHOUT DAMAGING THE PHONE. This is the most important question I have.
Also, the Poco has a USB-C cable, so I removed that and attached my stock Asus cable to use it - is this okay, like any charger can be used with any cable, regardless of whether it is USB-C or not?
Since I have to buy a new charger, are there any you all would recommend. I've found a few:

I also have the charger of a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 Tablet:
Input: 100 - 240V ~ 50/60Hz ~ 0.3A
Output: 5.0V~1.55A
The output of this charger is lesser than the stock Asus one, so would using this one cause any damage to the phone?
Thanks.
Anything rated above 2A will work on this device.I suggest you buy the Ambrane AQC from the first link.I saw another member using it and the charging speed he was getting was pretty fast when compared to the stock charger.
I would suggest Oraimo (2nd option).. I've been using this charger for more than a year now.. Charging is fast and also charges 2 phones at the same time.. It gets hot while charging 2 phones but I have never faced any other issues yet..

so i lost my fast charger which i didn't didn't use anyway as i kept fast charging unchecked in phone settings
now i got a new romoss charger which is a good charger AFAIK. it is rated at 2.1a, plugged it in and it took too long to charge. i downloaded an app called Ampere to measure the current and the maximum it gets is about 1000mA.
i thought the new charger was ****ty so i tried my friend's LG charger 1.8a and got the same results. tried another 2.1a samsung charger and nothing exceeds 1a.
is it something wrong with my phone or is it software related?
i'm using eRobot's newest rom with spaceX kernel (also tried googymax and suemax kernels). tried to check the fast charge option and again, same results.
any opinions or thoughts are much appeeciated
thanx
You need a Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 compatible charger in order utilize adaptive fast charging on your Note 4([email protected] & [email protected] output). Buy new Note4,Nexus 6,Motorola X Style charger. Also make sure your USB cable is undamaged/good quality, since not all cables actually support fast charging.
i dont need to use it as a fast charger, i just want it to charge with 5v 2a which the chareger is capable of
I use the grand 2 for now 1.5 years and recently i figured out that my phone drained it's battery faster but charging takes almost 4 hours.0_o
What can be the issue?
Btw:the combos used so far
Samsung charger 1A output org. Cable~4 hours
Adaptive fast charger org cable ~4.5hours
Samsung charger 2A sony power bank cable~4.7hours
Ipad air 1 12w charger output 2.4A org cable~5.2hours(0_o)
Generic charger from ebay output 1.5A generic cable~6hours
Rom used:Xosp 6.3
Please help as soon as possible
THANKS!
I am sorry but by mistake i clicked on the q and a thread option for grand 2 can it be changed???
Hi all! I have a Galaxy S8 Active which runs T-Mo firmware and is used on T-Mo network. The phone has latest August patch installed. Could anyone please tell me what is the charging rate measured with Ampere or similar app? I don't have original charger and cable at the moment, but I do have compatible chargers such as Anker 5 port QC 3.0 and 1 port of with PD which is 3 Amp. I also tried Pixel 2 charger, another Microsoft 3.0 Amp charger. All of those chargers provide about 970mA which is the max I have seen. The rate doesn't go up. The lock screen shows as charging fast
It depends on the charger. I measured with a USB tester the charge rate with two SONY chragers and, while one charges at 0.9 A, the other one does it at 1.5 A.
The capacity of the battery seems to be 2400 mAh with a brand new one from 2017
If I charge Oneplus 8 pro with lets say Car Charger with supported standards PD 3.0/QC 4.0/ QC 3.0/ AFC , is there a downside? Or just slow charging speed?
And, is there a downside if I need to charge my phone at work for example to take notebook USB Type C charger and plug in... (again apart of slow charge)

The rate of charge just be slower, otherwise no problems, no.
I just got the 8 pro yesterday, IN2025. From what I've read and i just tested your charging speed will be better w/ PD as the phone does not support QC anything and just treats as it regular charging.
I tested the charging at ~70%.
USB PD, 4.2V/1.8A - 2A
QC 3.0 4.2V/1..2A
Warp Charging, 4.2V/4.8A
Warp with regular cable, 4.2V/1.2A
Regular charging 4.2V/1.2A
Hope that helps
okay so my previous phone was a PD 3.0, I have a bunch of charger that are 3.0 which support up to 65W. What would it do with the OnePlus 8 Pro. will it be limited to 35W or will it go higher?
Always limited by the phone max specs.
so in that case I should still get the 30W from a PD 3.0 charger to the OnePlus 8 Pro?
Cause I don't want to spend $50 for a Warp Charge Car adapter specially if my PD 3.0 charger can provide the same amount of wattage

No, you will not get 30W from your PD charger, it will max out at 15W.
OnePlus only supports PD at 5V, likely because Dash charge only uses 5V. PD caps out at 3A for 5V, so 15W. PD achieves higher wattages by increasing the voltage rather than increasing the amperage like Dash Charge (hence why PD cables are generally thinner than Dash charge ones).

So in your case all chargers give less than required charging voltage?! AFAIK, only dash/vooc charges at battaries max voltage. others supply 5v. check your data
It was said that in order to charge at maximum power, the Note10+ needs a PD3.0 charger, with PPS support, rated at 45W, allowing to go up in current intensity to 4.5A, with a voltage of 10V, provided that you use a USB cable capable of transmitting a current of 5A.
Actually, and comparing all different kinds of chargers, I realised that the original 45W Samsung charger will charge the Note10+ at a maximum current of 30-33W, and it is exactly the same whether you use a 5A cable or a 3A cable, the current being [email protected] for both cables.
Therefore, I think that this whole 45W/5A thing is not accurate: you can use any 3A or 5A cable with the 45W charger, and you will get a good 30-33W charging power, with 20% faster charging speed than the original Samsung 25W charger.
To confirm: Has anyone tested the 45W charger with both cables?
I mean by this, using the Samsung 45W charger and a Note 10+ with 50% battery or less, first plug in with the original cable (5A) that came with the charger, write down the displayed time to charge the battery completely, then disconnect and reconnect with a standard 3A cable and note the time displayed. Compare the two times: I think they will be the same.
And if this is verified, it just means that a 5A cable is not needed for the 45W charger. A 3A cable is enough, especially as a replacement if you have lost the original cable.
