Yeah....., did you plug it in and immediately take that screen shot? Are you using the stock cable with it? And lastly does it say fast charging in the notification bar?
Mine takes roughly an hour and a half to go from 20ish% to 100%

My V20 charges crazy fast. There has been 2 times where It seemed to charge very slowly but I chalked it up to a likely bug or something. Other than those 2 times the device charges as it should, even when I'm using it providing the screen brightness isn't all the way up.

I will say if its charging slow make sure the usb end is plugged all the way in to the plug that goes in to the wall. I noticed this morning I was getting a slow charge and when looked at the connection it was not in all the way. Once I pushed it all the way in it started charging fast

As a v10 user I can tell you that sometimes (even using factory charger and cable) it doesn't go into fast charge.
Unplug it and plug it back in the lock screen should state "fast charging.." not just "charging.."

V20 doesn't charge as fast when using while charging. I am guessing that is a firmware thing or intentional to protect from heat, which I rarely notice.

that's understandable... back in note 7 it gets pretty hot but never exploded or smoked... but note 7 in use while playing a game will still charge the phone in 2hrs...
for me its a really big difference coming from note 7
thanks for everyone's input
using note 7 charger is actually a lil faster than the stock.... as far for my experience

My Nexus 7 literally takes hours to charge

My Nexus 7 battery takes forever to charge. And this is even when I use my stock cable to the wall charger. I know it takes around 3-4 hours to charge it from dead to full but for some reason mine is only HALFWAY full at the 4 hour mark and I usually have to leave it on the charger the whole night/day for it to be fully charged.
I have no other defects on this product except for this one. And I never dropped it or anything and I'm currently running 4.1.2.
Please help. I know I can't be the only one with this problem.
Definitely use the oem charger (2 Amp compared to 500-850 ma for most) and the supplied USB-3 cable. It will charge faster. After the long initial charge up to 100% mine has been charging pretty well. If I'm down around 10% it can take up to 4 hrs to charge, but the battery is huge compared to most phones. It sounds like something isn't working normally for you. Have you tried turning it off, then charging?
Yes sorry I was unclear in the original post. I'm using everything stock when I charge my Nexus 7. I don't use any other cable. And yes I completely turn it off when I'm charging but yet it still charges horribly slow.
I would test another comparable charger just to make sure it's not the charger or cable itself.
There is a lot of threads that talk about the charger and the possible ones you can & can't use (Nexus 7 is picky). I use a HP Touchpad USB plug and a cable. It does the job well :good:

I use the HP touchpad charger, Playbook charger and KFHD charger. All three of those get the job done fast.
With those three, I don't even need to use the N7 charger lol

Do you keep it on while you're charging it? If so that will definitely make it take longer to charge since it's using power.
Nope.

I keep mine on, so I can check the % on screen. And long as you don't use it while it's charging, it won't take longer.
Trust me I keep everything that I charge off so that it can charge faster and not be using any power while charging. It seems no one else has gone through this from this thread though. It sucks that I have to get a new charger when the stock charger should be still working fine and perfectly.
As far as i have read the informations on / in box. It said to use the OEM charger only. I didn't really measure time when charging, but it always took maybe 2-3 hours max to charge the device completely.
Try blowing out your micro port with compressed air, had this on my galaxy2

[Q] Slow Charge?

Had my Nexus 7 about a week now, had some system restarts at random times (when not even using the device) which is a bit of a concern, but read it could be the 4.2 update. But as hasn't happened while using so far it's not annoyed me. However charging is becoming a bit annoying. It's taking forever!
I have a battery widget installed and its stats tell the story. Battery is usually fully charge in: 6 hours 59 minutes.
It's plugged into the wall, with the cable and charger it came with, tried using an Apple charger block to see if it was that, no luck. Not tried another Micro USB cable yet, but may do if anyone thinks it could be that?
Also according to the stats it charges 1% every 7 minutes and I put it on charge at 9:45am this morning at 35% and it currently on 66% and it is now 2:55pm. It also says it will finish charging at 7:00pm tonight.
The app/widget is Battery Widget? Reborn! Does this have anything to do with the slow charging?
But this is a bit of a joke to be honest. Is my device faulty?
Mine charged from 1% to full in 2h10m today. Stock charger.

You are using the original 2A charger right? Have you tried with an other USB cable on it (might be broken?)
Also try to monitor your charging without the app, just write down what time you plugged it in at what percent and check it that way. (the app might show wrong readings).
If you have an other 2A charger you can borrow, you can try to eliminate that to. Not sure how long it takes via a regular USB port on the PC.
If it keeps charging that slow, your battery might be defect..
Good luck anyway

[Q] 3 Hours of Charging = 30% Battery

I'm unsure what's wrong!!!
My phone has been fine, until it died today. I practice a 1 charge a day rule and I let my battery drain completely before I even think about putting it back on the charger.
Today, my phone died a littler earlier than expected, but that's okay because I was using my iPhone for most of the day. I got home at about 11PM and put my phone on the charger at 11:15PM. Here it is, 2:25AM and my phone only has 30% charge.
I've never noticed it charging this slowly before because I typically put it on the charger before I go to sleep and take it off when I wake up. This doesn't seem normal from ANY phone that I've ever used or troubleshooted in my life.
Why so slow? Is everyone's phone just as slow or should I be concerned?
Edit: I am using the charger that came with my phone in the same wall outlet that I've used since I got the phone. Nothing else is plugged into that outlet, either.
It would seem sensible to try a different charger and power outlet.

Your should be at 100% in that 3 hours. Try using a tablet wall charger.
With my phone, sometimes it charges in a flash, and sometimes it's charging for hours, idk why they do this.

I don't have another charger. All I own is Apple products, unfortunately.
I've done other other outlets throughout the house before posting, but I wouldn't see why the one I'm using is compromised in the slightest. It's charged the phone fine since I've gotten it.

The only Tablet I have is my iPad. I was thinking about just using the A/C adapter, but I was worried that that might mess something up with my luck. LOL.
You can't use the iPhone\iPad chargers as most of them don't comply with the USB charging standard (It will only charge at 500ma, the limit of USB charging).
You said it died quicker than usual as well? Sure nothing is running that drains the battery? Check the battery usage in settings after leaving it unplugged a while and see if you see anything that's using a ridiculous amount of battery.
I've had the same problem. Sometimes I plug mine into a wall charger and it reads Charging (USB) which may be your problem. Other times it reads Charging (AC).

It's been off of the charger for about an an hour and a half and nothing out of the norm is draining the battery. Screen on time is at 40%, but that's because I was reading all of my sports news and stuff from my device.
Interesting thing to note: I'm at 79% on my Nexus 4 after about an hour and a half unplugged and doing regular browsing. I'm at 98% on my 4s with doing just about the same things as I've done on my Nexus 4, and even watching a YouTube video on my 4s. I've also had a great deal of voice calls and texts this morning to my iPhone. They were neck and neck when I first got my N4 on December 10th. Now, it's dying faster. The only difference is that I've installed Spotify on my Nexus 4 since then... Which isn't running.

It was reading USB last night! I thought that was normal, lmao... Thinking it meant "there is a USB cable charging it and not wireless charging."
Hm... The plot thickens, I guess.
Yeah it sometimes reads USB but if you unplug then plug it back in, it will change to AC. Not sure how to fix it but that's your problem right there.
Question: are you stock, rooted stock, or different ROM?

Why is my Galaxy S7 charging so slowly

Today I bought a Galaxy S7 Edge from T-Mobile and it is taking forever to charge and discharges if your using it while it's charging. To charge it, I need to turn off the screen and it rises by 1% every 45 mins. When I run Ampere, it says 50mA. Is this normal? I though fast charging isn't supposed to take 40 hours with the screen off...
How much do people normally get when they run the Ampere app?

Well, something is definitely wrong with your phone if it takes 40 hours to charge. I've would had it sent back.
But first, make sure you enabled fast charge
# Settings
# Battery
# fast charge
Second
Make sure your charger isn't broken.
See if you can test on another phone
If the charger is OK, and fast charge enabled
Deliver back phone and get a new one.
But most likely it's the charger I quess
Are you using the original cable/charger?

Yes, the white one that came with the phone, and charging it directly from the wall
There is definitely something wrong if it's taking that long. Try another charger. That way you will know if it's the phone or the charger. If it's the phone, I would get a replacement.

What's your mA on Ampere?
Im looking for The same answer. Mine do not pass The 1000 mark. Not sure if this is ok or not. My Nexus 6p is doing 1,700.
Be aware that QC fast charging is disabled when the screen is on.

Charging speed

To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
My phone arrived with 54% charge. It took about 40min to charge to full. Will do some more complete testing over the next few days.
The charge speed is something im a bit concerned about. I've noticed charging while the phone is on significantly slows down the charging process. To the point where 10 minutes went by on "super fast charging" and the phone only increased 1% in charge. The minute I laid the phone down screen off and the charging went significantly faster.

Yes because if your using the phone or the phone screen is on your consuming battery life while your charging so it's going to be slower charging than if the screen was off.

The issue i have is my note 10+ didn't have this issue nor any phone I've ever used. I could be gaming on my note and it would charge normally.
Sent from my SM-F916U1 using Tapatalk
Didn't the note 10+ have a 45 watt charging right? If you had the charger you probably wouldn't notice it
8% to a full charge took 1hr 15min. Haven’t tried charging while using the device at the same time yet.

I tried a quick test by running the battery down to 90% and then launching a game on the big screen. (Clash Royale) Plugged in the charger while playing and it topped off in just a few minutes. Going to run it down to 50% tonight and repeat the test.
Sent from my SM-F916U using Tapatalk
Repeated the test, this time I had the battery at 55%. Played WGT Golf while charging. Default settings which had screen brightness are 30%. Battery topped off in 46 min.

The phone only charges at 25 watts max
For some reason my phone is taking 6hrs to fully charge from zero on the Samsung fast charging dual pad. What is going on?
I hooked up my USB c gizmo.... only saw max 18w charging using a variety of cables and chargers with fold 2. I'm coming from a note 10+ where I saw 45w max. What gives?

Has the charging pad been used to charge other devices and worked as it should? Is the pads own plug and cable being used as they could determine the charge speed too.
On the Fold 2, is fast wireless charging enabled? If you go to the Battery settings in Device Care at the bottom there's Charging. Make sure both Fast Charging and Fast Wireless Charging are on. You can schedule the fast wireless charging to turn off at night so it charges more slowly and, if the charger is compatible, the charging light dims and the cooling fan doesn't turn on.
I only charge wirelessly using the Samsung 15w wireless charging stand and have the Fold 2 scheduled to turn off Fast charge at night. This turns off the chargers fan and dims the light.
All of that is checked. My note 10+ was fine. This is slow as ****. Not the pad. Watch does fine etc. It charges at 12w. Oh well. I guess if I want it fast I'll just have to plug it in.

Glad it's not just me. Still love the phone. I usually charge it when I'm sleeping so it's fine. Might have to give it a refresh cable charge before bed so it's not at zero when I go to bed.

It's definitely a new experience for me with the charging. I came from a oneplus 7 pro to the note 10+ to this and those could go from dead to full in under 40 minutes. This phone is much slower charging overall. I Def. Don't regret buying it, i just wish it came with a cheap case to get me by until good ones were out and the charging was on point.
