Hi, I've been using Huawei p10 lite for more than 6 months, the phone used to charge in about 1 hour and 30 mins but it's been a month my phone now charges from 20 - 90 percent in about 3 hours.
Phone charges fast when i shut it down and charge.
I've tried Factory Data Reset and I'm using Huawei Original charger.
The temperature of my city is 46 degrees Celsius.
I'll be glad if someone assists me.

Well, if the ambient temperature is 46 degrees then there's your problem.
If you've got air conditioning, then it's not.
The charging speed should start to drop in the mid to late 30s (that's temperature and of course battery temp specifically).
Both extreme heat and extreme cold are bad for your phone and the battery in particular. 5-25 degrees is probably the ideal operating environment but that's obviously very hard to control and the phone is rated to go beyond that but as I said: not ideal.
Better for it to charge slower than risk explosions if you ask me
Same issue, but lower ambient temps and not always with the original charger but a charger that supports quick charge either way
Device is up to date and not rooted, but heavily used

If you mean Quick Charge, then that's a Qualcomm technology and would not work. I think Huawei uses a proprietary protocol on their phones but from what I can tell it isn't their Supercharger tech either.
You're only really guaranteed those speeds with the original charger or a charger certified to work with your phone or its charging tech. You may be able to get it to work with a charger rated for the same ampere/volt spec but I won't guarantee it as there's usually more to it than that.
That's why proprietary technology with competing standards suck. It's hard to find something that works.

Any one actually time how fast their note 4 charges for them? Mine didnt seem to charge any faster than my GS4 the last few days so I finally set a timer, and it charged 50% in just over an hour and a half. Way off what samsung claimed, considering this was supposed to take only 30 minutes...and yes I have fast charging enabled and am using the fast charging adapter.
In 20 minutes charged about 33%. I am happy, cause fast charging working very well. From 25% to 95 % in 60 minutes.

I've done measurements this morning after getting my Note 4 last night.
I agree. I've found little difference between fast charging, and normal at the levels i was measuring.
Perhaps it works faster between 0 and 50%, which seems to be the stats Samsung always quoted. If there is any kind of intelligence circutry going on, it must be varying the amount of ampage being drawn from the charger.
I've found the amps drawn to be VERY low as compared with the S5. Obviously the voltage is the main thing changing with Samsung's "fast Charging" plug.
For example changing from 90% to 100% I found:
USB 2 lead supplied with phone + normal plug = 23mins 31 seconds
USB 2 lead supplied with phone + fast charging plug supplied by Samsung = 23 mins dead.
31 seconds difference is hardly stallar!
Yes you can say it depends on what apps were consuming resource in the background, but it was just standard apps synching etc.
Screen was off the entire time, and nothing processor intensive was actively running.
But I did notice something interesting:
If watts = amps x volts it might explain why the phone isn't charging that fast at the 90% level.
Note 4:
With anker 40w 5-port charge (capable of outpitting 2.4 amps per port, the typical draw was between 300 and 450 ma
With Samsung fast charger it was drawing between 250 and 350ma.
Obviously I'm not counting voltage, which will definitely play a part in the overall wattage. But there has to be some kind of intelligence here controlling it as it's not steady.
S5:
Anker 5-port: 1200ma steady
Fast charger (not compatable of course): 1200ma Steady
Which is also intereting seeing as the max output is 1800ma, so the phone still isnt drawing the max it could do.
Might try draining the Note 4 down even more, and seeing if it does up the draw when the battery is nearing empty
I was very impressed with the charging.
The ultimate test for me was when I was playing a fairly graphics hungry game whilst being connected to the fast charger. It continued to charge the phone up to 100% from 30% in around 40 minutes whilst playing.
I believe the best way to ensure the results are comparable is to make sure the phone is completely powered down and the battery has had a handful of recharge cycles first.
Anyhow, I am impressed with the charging and the battery consumption of my Note 4 to date
.
Impressive. Considering you were using a lot of screen and processing power. Sounds like a wait and see is in order, see how it pans out.
Battery life doesn't seem bad for what I have used, not but much better than I had on the S5. In time I expect things to improve though.
With me fast charging work very well
30 mins then 50% when playing some small game and surfing web
Sent from my SM-N910L using XDA Free mobile app
I went from 21% to 75% in about 40 minutes the other day (was monitoring), but my device was on and I had used it a few times in between that time... fast charging is really meant to be used when your device is OFF - that's where you'll get the most benefit.
Mine works fine. Remember it works while screen is off or phone powered down. Also from 0-50 only. Beyond that and it will use 5v to charge instead of the 9v. That's why Fast Charging will only work with the charger it came with.

Are you still having the same issue?
Im charging my phone for the first time and i dont find the fast charging works well with me. Its been an hour already and my battery is still at 30%. I also turn off my phone to make sure i get the 30mins 50% but no luck. Should fast charging kicks in after several recharge cycle?
Remember, it's called adaptive fast charging so it's charging rate varies depending on variables such as temperature, etc.
I went from 20% to 96% in about 60-90 minutes today. Not too bad.
I don't plan on using fast charging much to test, but it's my first few days with the phone and I've been stress testing it to see how battery life is.
90mins for me from 1% to 100%.
no problem at all. been charging from 0 to 100% at exactly 60mins
Impressed with mine used to have a spare battery but not anymore as the beast can really fast.
Must use included charger and CABLE
I found that for fast charging to work you must use the cable and charger that shipped with the Note 4.
hey and im sorry to dig this thread out again, but wondering if another tried fast charging with third party battery, I bought a ravpower note 4 battery off amazon and charged it with my note 4 adapter and I went from 10% to 50% in about 50 minutes, im sure its not fast enough.
note 4 adaptive fast charging
The phone has a chip and the charger has a chip it is this that allows the phone to charge at 9v only between 0 to 50. It's easy for people to be unimpressed because Samsung typically charge quickly. I tried a LG g3 for a few days and it charged ridiculously slow compared to a Samsung if it is taking an hr and a half to charge your phone halfway I would consider using your warranty for a new device or battery

is this correct?
It will only do fast charging below 50%?
What if it starts at 45% - will it stop when it gets to 50%?
I'm finding that Adaptive Fast Charging (AFC) only works (phone reads "fast charging") when the charge cycle is started while the phone's battery is almost dead. Now, "almost dead" means different things to different people, but my GS6 won't use AFC unless it's really low - I know it won't kick on/in circa 35%, but I don't know the precise level.
Here's some an interesting comment made on the awesome article at the link below:
"You should note though, that CABLES DO MATTER. Every el-cheapo ebay cable isn't supported for quick charging. They usually allow about 700mA to pass through. You need high quality cables that probably came with your smartphone in order for quick charging to work. I have done several tests with my Note 4 with several cables and an adapter that meters the output Amperage."
http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/0...-need-to-know-about-charging-your-smartphone/
Works great for me take about an hour and 40 mins from 4-fully charged.
I lost my charger so i cant help here
Been looking all over eBay & Amazon, but nothing...*sigh*
i have had the V20 for about 12 hours in which time it charged from about 50% to about 75% ... my Note would accomplish the same in about 15 minutes ... and yet the V20 is supposed to run the same type of quick charger on the same size battery ... something about this doesn't rub me the right way
yes i did use the phone and unplug it a few times etc but it still should have been much faster ...
it was connected using its own cable and charger BUT through a USB extension cord ... so then i thought maybe that's the problem - maybe i need a longer type C cable and to get rid of extension cord ... but i need to have an answer to that BEFORE buying new cables ...
so i plugged it in directly ( no extension ) and tried to see if it charges in correct mode ...
and here is where i face plant into a wall of excruciating stupidity ... every single app out there measures charging current, whereas what i really want to know is whether the charger is running at 5V standard voltage or using the quick charge 9V voltage ... amazingly there doesn't seem to be an app to show this - or is there ?
my galaxy note would simply say " adaptive quick charger connected " when plugged into quick charger but the V20 doesn't say anything like that.
accubattery app says my screen on charging rate is 760 ma and screen off is 1760 ma ... and the charger of course states 1.8 A so that's consistent ... but is that at 5V or at 9V ? the charger supports both - which one is it ?
this is killing me - so much stupidity. it shouldn't be that hard to figure out whether the phone is charging correctly or not.
anybody have an idea how i could find out whether the charger is actually stepping up to 9V without physically cutting the USB cable and using my multimeter ?
EDIT: i realized i have a kill-a-watt ( actually two of them ) and i can measure power draw from 120V outlet ... so i did that. the draw fluctuated from about 6 to 13 watt. now if we assume 90% efficiency on the charger then full power would have to draw 18 watt from outlet - clearly it never got close. on the other hand at 5V it should have maxed out at around 10 watt power draw, and it went quite a bit over that so it would seem to be using the 9V mode ...
at this point however i'm up to 90% battery and can't expect it to charge at full rate any more as some battery charging algorithms taper off above 80% or so ...
i tried with and without extension cord and noticed no difference ... also if i remember correctly my Note also charged fine over this same extension cord ... but i'm not sure
EDIT: played with turning off 2nd screen as well as shutting down device completely - this phone is crazy. power draw is all the place - at one point it went to ZERO and stayed there until i unplugged it and plugged it back in, then it would fluctuate between zero and 14 watts ...
you know back in the day i had LG Nitro HD and it had worst battery performance of any phone ever ... and this V20 seems to be living up to that legacy. WTF.
anyway, it seems the charger and the cable and extension are not to blame - it seems there is some kind of software weirdness that is resulting in very sporadic power draw ...
slow charging is one of the reasons i switched from iPhone back to Android - i expected this V20 to perform similarly ( blazing fast charging ) to the Note 4 i had before the iPhone 6S Plus ... but it's charging performance so far is almost identical to the iPhone - slow as a snail.
i already spent $80 on case and screen protector and i'm supposed to spend a bunch more on extra cables and memory card as well as sell my iPhone and at the same time i'm thinking - maybe i should just return it ? going to have to observe it for a while longer before making any decisions either way ... terrible.
The V20 is QC 3.0
The Note 5 is QC 2.0
The V20 will negotiate with a 3.0 charger to tell the charger what power it requires at that moment so power will fluctuate during charging.

yeah it fluctuates a lot. i gave up on apps and just using Kill-a-watt now which is a physical power meter you insert into 120V outlet. it shows power draw from charger, not output, but we can assume about 90% efficiency from input to output of charger.
i let the V20 drain to 40% overnight and restarted the test today. with the extension cord it went up to 16 watt draw from outlet and stayed there - charge quickly went up to 55% then i tried without the extension cord and now its only at 11 watts. this is with both screens off. so far my conclusion is that using an extension cord makes no difference but the level of charge on the phone does impact the charging speed. you need to drain the phone to measure full charging speed.
i will continue with my testing but i am somewhat relieved. 16 watts is close to spec, in fact the spec is 16 watt but on the OUTPUT side of charger, not input, so i'm withing about 10% of spec.
i'm also a lot less nervous buying charging cables now that i verified 16 watt charging over many years old USB 2.0 extension cord ...
EDIT: wow it went from 55% to 68% while i was typing this message ! this is very different from what i saw yesterday ... it was running at 11 watts while i was typing. looks like the phone charges fast as long as it is: 1) drained and 2) left alone. if the phone is almost full and you keep playing with it the level of charge barely changes.
EDIT: at 89% charge it's now down to just 4 watts power draw from outlet ... 25% of what it was pulling at 40% charge. so far it looks like it tapers charging speed off gradually with charge level - starts early and tapers it off to almost nothing as it nears full charge ... and all the while it fluctuates with processor and screen use and probably other factors such as temperature. maybe the reason it went to 16 watts when i plugged it in the morning is that the phone was cold from not being used all night and perhaps it now warmed up so the power got tapered.
maybe i'll stop testing it - it seems to be working correctly, just not the way i originally expected it to.
overall i'm disappointed with this phone but the only phone i would trade it for is Pixel XL 128 GB Very Black which is unavailable ... so i guess i will keep it.
the phone i'm most impressed with right now is ZTE Axon 7 i got for my mother - it is shockingly good - if it wasn't for FM radio, IR Blaster, Removable Battery, Laser Autofocus, Dual Camera, Dual Screen and Nougat i would even say the ZTE Axon 7 is BETTER than V20. the main problem with ZTE is it's just not expensive enough for my ego - otherwise it is great. the screen is is super sharp, vivid and punchy, the front facing speakers are loud and crisp and then there's the 2 year warranty. i'm jealous ...
but i will stick with V20 to protect my dignity. because let's face it - if i'm out on a date i want to have the latest, most technologically advanced and most expensive phone - not the cheapest phone, even if it is just as good or better. really happy with my decision to get Axon 7 for my mom though. she loves it as well.
The way QC works is that it will charge fastest from low power until around 70-80% and then slow down A LOT to help preserve the battery. That is why you saw a high wattage and then when you got into the 80's you saw a very low wattage.
QC is mainly for you to get 40-50% of battery power in a relative short amount of time when your battery is low.
I bought a little device that measures the voltage and current of the charge. And I'm using my own Quick Charge 3.0 wall charger.
When the screen is off or powered down, it charges at 9V/1.8A max. Resulting in about 16W of power. Which is pretty much what the supplied LG charger delivers.
When the screen is on, it charges at 5V/0.5A
My QC3.0 charger is capable of up to 9V/2A and 12V/1.5A, 18W of power. The V20 doesn't seem to draw that much power. And now I'm starting to doubt the V20 is truly a QC3.0 device.

That is still wasteful use on a battery and giving the next guy a raw deal. But to each his own. I try and make everything last and more efficient so the next person feels like they are truly getting an almost lightly used phone. If I sell my note4, they're going to get a lightly used battery on top of the 3 extras, with fixed GPS and better reception and cleaned out USB port with no oxidization. Same with my HTC m8 though that was only used as daily driver for two weeks and then a DAP for trips and occasional home use. Definitely selling the m8. They are basically getting a lightly used phone and the battery should still have some good life coming out of it. And personally I think jump is overpriced leasing but I guess you can drive it like you stole it. I prefer handing down the best experience I can to the next person.

Just tested this one at work. Phone was at 28% and I had been streaming Youtube for a good 2 hours before doing the test.
Ended up pulling 9.17v @ 1.68A = 15.40 watts (again maximum that my tester can do).
I'll be ordering a new tester that can handle up to 25A and testing again to see if I can pull the max 18watts of power that the QC 3.0 chargers says it can deliver

I see.
This looks like a good device.
There are time on my v10 where I'll plug it in and it will charge at a reduced rate so I have to unplug it and plug it back it and it changes to fast charge, that's just been my experience. This is using factory plug and adapter too.
So you might want to make sure the phone says "fast charging" and not "charging".

You're using the device while it is charging? That's going to cause some overheating and many other issues. Try charging it without using it and see if the results change.

That's how every li-ion battery charges. That's normal. This is precisely why manufacturers advertise 0-60% (or close) charge time instead of how long it takes a phone to fully charge
OP, give this a read - http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/charging_lithium_ion_batteries .
tl;dr charge rate isn't linear.

All recent phones have a logic chip which decideds the rate of charage in order to minimize the effects of quick charging on battery life and to avoid overheating. Slowing down the rate of charging the closer to %100 is done in order to protect the longevity of battery life, the chemical process involved in charging is not %100 efficient and the higher the rate of charging close to capacity the less efficient it is, this translates to permanent loss of charging capacity next time you run the charging process. Temperature also affects the rate of charging the logic chip dictates. If its too cold it slows down the rate until it heats up to optimal range. If the battery didn't have a temp sensor you could make it loose %90 of its capacity simply putting it in the freezer then QC charging it. If its too hot there is a risk of overheating and fire, so if you are running resource intensive apps your rate of charge will drop to avoid excess overheating. There is NO danger in using the phone while it is charging, even resource intensive games
Hey guys, i have a few questions regarding charging:
- I was wondering how fast the P10 plus charges with its included charger?
- Is it compatible with a quick charge 3.0 charger ?Have your tried using one? Would it charge just as fast?
- How about using a powerbank how long does it take to charge?
I just wanted to get an idea because the phone i have right now charges super slow (almost 3 hours) . It would be nice to have a fast charging capable phone, less than 2 hours would be even better! Thanks and cheers!
Full charge completed in about an hour.
I believe the phone is using the same SuperCharge technology as the Mate 9. Not sure if any power banks support it yet. But QuickCharge ought to work a bit faster, then regular charging? Don't quote me on that though.
Anyone an idea if you can disable the Quickcharge function? I reckon if not needed, it will be always better for your battery to charge it slowly.

Change the usb cable with normal one it will charge slowly
Think my post on this subject in the P10 forum may be of help/interest as it applies to the P10+ as well... Especially to clarify the non compatibilty with Qualcomm Quick chargers

Incidentally, for the nerds amongst us (is that all of us? Lol!) the theoretical fastest time to charge the P10+ from flat would be 50 minutes on a Super charger (3750mAh battery with a 5V4.5A/4.5V5A charger).
I've seen rates of well over 1% per min on my P10 to start with, although this drops as the battery gets over 90%, but I'd be suprised if it would take more than 90 mins unless the phone was being used heavily at the same time.
Around an hour would be a very good time overall, probably a more average time would be around 75 mins

Thanks, yes! I already noticed this 'solution'.
So far, I can't find a software solution to disable it.
My Huawei P10 Lite is charging very slow and just increment by 1 % in 5 minutes. The charging is slow in summer and it is fast in winter.The phone back and charger gets hot in summer. When I switched it off and then apply charging to it, it charges fast. I don't know what is the problem with it? In summer,my area temperature reaches to 40 Celsius degree. Please help

You pretty much answered the question yourself. To prevent overheating it charges slower. When it's turned off it generates less heat and can therefore charge faster. When ambient temperature is high it charges slowly.

It's doing exactly ehat my xa2 should be doing, conserving battery life (capacity)

I think it should not do this way.As the model is made for different regions so mine is made for my region and it should not charge slow then. What you say?

It's physics. There is absolutely no way for them to counteract the effects of warm temperatures other than to slow down charging. If you had air conditioning you'd probably be able to get fast charging to work.
The variants of a model generally don't have that many differences. It is a mass produced product after all. Mostly it's down to software. Occasionally RAM/storage configuration (which is also the case with this phone) and on rare occasions it goes deeper than that.
