OP5 with regular type-C charger is not charging ? - OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers

Guys I have found something strange.
Last night I had left my dash charger somewhere so I plugged in my OP5 in a regular charger for the night. The red charging led was on. The following morning, my phone was more or less on the same battery percentage. I installed Ampere from the playstore and the charger, that is supposed to output up to 2.4A or even more using QC3.0, was only charging my battery with 300mAh. I doubt it actually did this all night, considering my battery hadn't charged at all.
Since I've tried 4 other chargers, and it seems I can't get more than 400mAh out of them according to Ampere.
My 3T could be charged with any regular charger, although much slower than dash charging, but I could get 1-2A without problems.
Do you guys have the same? Or is my OP5 broken?
Could somebody please try?

Charging Ok here
With 830mA on an normal USB (1A) charger (Not great but OK)

Well i have a microsoft 3A usb c charger, works like a charm.. not dash but it charges!

Hm, thanks! So either a Quickcharge charger is a problem with th OP5, or my device is broken.
Let me find an old & simple charger to check this.

I've tested it with my QC 3.0 chargers all over the house and in my car and It works like it should.

have you tried other cables too ? cause they are the problem most of the time.

I charged with Samsung Galaxy S7's fast charger and another USB-C cable and it's working fine and without overheating phone or charger

I'm so happy you posted this.
Indeed, the issue is not the charger or my phone, but the cabling!
I have many cheaper and ultra-cheap USB cables, and some work and others don't. I now got rid of all cables that do not work. I'm a happy man.
Thanks all.

you are welcome.
i also used the app ampere https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.ampere
to test all my cables.. it was very surprising how many of the "quality cables" only provided usb charging while some "cheap cables" provided full power
(not dash power but way better than just usb current 200 - 500 mA)

[Q] Note 4 Car Charging?

Hey guys,
I just plugged my note 4 into my car charger (anker charger, oem note 4 cable) and couldn't get it to charge. It charges my note 3 no problem.
I also have no problems charging my note 4 with wall chargers.
Any help?
I've got the "Anker® 18W / 3.6A Car Charger with Built-in Micro USB Cord for Android" and it's actually CHARGING my Note 4 when using GPS navigation and playing music! My Note 2 wouldn't charge, but it would hold charge under the same conditions.
What model charger are you using?

I actually can't find it on the charger itself or even Amazon. It's relatively new, I thought it was a 2.0/2.1 amp charger (2x USB). Definitely Anker though.

Are you using both usb's at the same time? If so, it's splitting the power, so you'll get a slow charge.

Sorry, I should have specified - the only thing plugged into the charger is my Note 4.
Shoot, maybe I just need to grab another charger. Thought I made a good decision with that Anker.
Thanks for your reply by the way

Hmm.. this mentions rapid charging, I wonder if it's as fast as the wall charger
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/ECA-U21CBEBXAR
The only chargers that work with the new fast charging technology are ones that are purpose built and have the ability to switch between 9V and 5V,they are quite uncommon.
I have this charger http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D82O68Y/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
and it charges my note 4 while running Waze and tethering my Radar Detector via Bluetooth (which also uses GPS)....and it charges my wife's S5 at the same time
Using an afer market 2.1a charger and an S3 cable, charges just fine.

I believe Samsung has stated it's a 9v charger instead of the conventional 5v charger.
Did some more research and found this:
http://www.incipio.com/chargers/car-chargers/quick-charge-2-0-single-port-usb-charger.html#
From the Engadget review, "I clarified with Samsung that it chose a proprietary solution instead of licensing Qualcomm's QuickCharge tech, but it insisted that you could still use QuickCharge 2.0-compatible chargers to achieve the same results."
Also from http://www.samsung.com/sa_en/support/skp/faq/1063730?CID=AFL-hq-mul-0813-11000170
[FAQs] Smart Phone : Galaxy Note 4- To use fast charging, what kind of charger should be used?
Fast charging uses battery charging technology that charges the
battery faster by increasing the charging power. The Galaxy Note 4
device supports Samsung’s Adaptive Fast Charging feature and
Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0.
To use Fast charging on your device, connect it to a battery charger
that supports Adaptive Fast Charging or Quick Charge 2.0.

Stock charger no longer work

stock charger stopped working and phone no longer turbo charge.. tried a replacement that worked for 2 months and stopped as well.. phone only chargers with regular usb/chargers.. I'm guessing it's a software problem or could be hardware as well but I'm not the only one with this problem I'm sure.. Anyone have a fix?
Highly unlikely it is a software issue... The Moto X is very finicky about Turbo Chargers and the cable, always use a high quality cable and power supply, I recommend Eversame microUSB cables and Aukey QC 2.0 chargers (car or A/C), I have used them for a long time with no issues at all. Come to think of it, my original charger is probably still in the box, don't think I have ever used it. lol

So it's safe to say it's a cable problem.. I bought a similar charger like stock on Amazon and same problem.. Probably need to change brand like u said.. Waiting for other inputs
Just had the same thing happen to me literally a few minutes ago. Turbo charger isn't working so I have to use a regular one. Just ordered the cable and charger in acejavelin's post.
A Samsung charger from like the S7 will quick charge the phone. At least mine does. It even gives the TurboCharge toast after plugging it in.

Yes, because that charger is QC2.0 compliant, I have used on of my son's S7 Edge chargers on more than occasion with no problems and it gets "Turbo charge" just fine... So will most other OEM chargers that are Quick Charge 2.0 compliant.

compatible charger

OK.... so i wanna know is it bad if i charge this phone with samsung adaptive charger ? and what about AUKEY USB-C Car Charger with 5V/3A USB C & Quick Charge 3.0?
My another problem is when i use oem charger my phone getting really hot like the back panel 110 degrees till almost 90% and then start cooling down, but i dont have this problem with samsung charger and my phone still charge pretty quick.
is anyone has the same situation?
The phone uses USB-C power delivery for charge spec. QC3 chargers don't work at all on my PH-1, seriously charges at .5amps. You're fine to use the Samsung charger or any other adaptive charger like Ankar power port chargers, they work fine.
Not sure about your phone getting hot using the stock charger though, mine doesn't do that.

So the phone will charge with an old USB Type-A charger and a Type-A to Type-C cable? What if it's not a QC3 charger like my Anker PowerDrive 2? I've read that some peoples phones charge slower than it uses power when using older chargers, but then some people say they charge ok, slower, but not that slow.

Yeah the power port chargers work just fine. Just not QC3 chargers, in my experience.

Why on earth was fast charging disabled for this nexus?

*Deleted*
They didn't disable anything - it doesn't have the Qualicom Quick Charge variant, but it does have it's own variant of a rapid charge.
Using two wall chargers I have here and a Benson certified USB-C Cable, one of the wall chargers support QC2.0 and the other QC3.0. Both charged "normally" reporting on the screen as "Charging".
Using the stock USB-C wall charger that came with my 6P, using EX Kernel and the stock kernel from January 8.1 stock ROM, both reported "Charging Rapidly". I switched kernels using EXKM and a backup of the stock Kernel to test this.
Also, I bought a Tronsmart USB-C Car Charger, and it too reports "Charging Rapidly".

Hey everyone,
So I got my nexus 3 Months ago, I just found out NOW that it is not fast charging at all. I bought a new ANKER charger and wire with it and its just charging slowly which got me really annoyed as I wasted money on it because I thought it had nothing to do with the phone at all. I did some digging around and the maker of franco kernel found out that bloody google disabled the bloody fast charging on the 6P?! What kind of solution is that? I mean they could of at least gave us options on whether to disable or enable it in the phone. Is there ANY way to get fast charging enabled on this phone?

Nexus 6p just charges at a higher amperage then most average phones. As long as you use a charger with 5V/3A you should get charging rapidly. Just remember as the battery percentage increases the amps get lower. Use an app like ampere to make sure your getting close to 3000mA. I think the highest charge I seen on the stock plug was like 2800mA.
Well I bought an ANKER Charger and usb cable with it which definitely says it is fast charging compatible. When it comes to charging my phone I got a small text on my lock screen showing me how much charge there is going to the phone while charging. The average charging mAh is 1,400 and the voltage is 4.3V. I am pretty sure that it has reached a higher charge rate....I'll have to keep an eye on it. Do you think thats an acceptable charging rate?
It's not just about amperage, because some of their chargers are a whopping 8A - https://www.anker.com/ca/products/108/203/Wall-Chargers
Anker doesn't support the variant of rapid charging that the 6P accepts, therefore it only will negotiate down to a normal "charging" rate, which IIRC is exactly what you're getting.

Question Nothing phone 1 wireless charging issue

I found the wireless charing is extermely slow and even not charging , anyone has similar experience ? Please advise, thanks
This just happened to me today as I tried wireless charging for the first time. Was testing with Samsung 15W charger, gonna look for another charger to see what that does.
Edit: Samsung 15W charger with 25W power supply did not work, Oneplus 50W with 65W adapter worked. Tried the power bricks with both chargers, only 50W+65W combo worked. Looks like it is a little picky with chargers.
Epico Wireless Stand Pro also charging slowly. Charging also stops from time to time. Might be firmware issua?
Alignment seems to need to be pretty much perfect to work...
Already sick of waking up to an uncharged phone so have switched to wired for now.

This was on one of those Ikea Qi chargers that are covered with fabric for grip... still very awkward to align.
You've reminded me that I do have a Qi charging stand somewhere though... I might dig that out and try it.

Weird... For me with the OnePlus 50W charging station it continuously stops and restarts (or not even that). I'm using it with a 30W OnePlus adapter. Worked with my old device.
Interestingly, I also have the older, wired OnePlus stand with 30W and with that it seems to work.

My BMW has a charging box, same like a charging pad. When I put my phone inside, it doesn't charge.
I always need to hold the phone 1-2 cm above the charging pad for like 5 Seconds. Then it starts charging and I can lay it down on the pad.
It's like the phone has to perform any handshake with the charger first and when it is too close it doesn't work.
Maybe it works in the same way for you.
According to Ampere, the Nothing Phone 1 stop wireless charging as soon as it reaches 38 degrees (celsius), which is incredibly low
Wireless charging has been awesome for me. Mine charges wirelessly incredibly fast and I never have an issue. I've been using this charger .
