As topics says and like your battery is under %20 percent approximately how long does it take to get it fully charged
About 1.5 - 2 hours
Mine seems about the same, however if your using the phone wile charging it takes a lot longer, which is strange because there should be enough current to charge and use simultaneously.
1 hour 45 minutes from 25%, also I have juice plotter installed and theres a widget that you can put on your homescreen that changes from time left to how much time it takes to charge when it is actually charging which is kind of neat.
ty i think my phones charge time is increased will try tonight again
3:35 from 0 to 100

yep! for a moment was wondering if there was something abnormal with my phone.

You guys could try a 2 amps charger (such as the one that comes with the ipad), theres some evidence it will charge faster, although not by much.

30 seconds.
(battery swap )
But seriously, about 3 hours from empty to full on the charger that came with it, and about 2 hours with my 2amp galaxy tab charger.

True when I charge my GS2 with my Galaxy tab charger its dramatically faster.
._. there must be something wrong with my gnote then ... it takes around 4h30m to fully charge from around 10%... and even longer if using phone at same time...
I had several smartphones and this one is the one with the worst battery ever ... my dell streak's battery charges faster and even tho it also has a 5" screen, its 1500mAh battery lasts longer with the same usage.
Yesterday my gnote battery took 3h30m to go from 100% to 13% just from playing 2h30m of games and 1h browsing... innaceptable! and I do use betterbatterystats and I have few wakelocks that could be draining battery...
This phone charging scheme is really crappy, as I understand from my use, while charging instead of the charger powering both the phone and the battery at same time, I think it only charges the battery and the phone is always powered by the battery alone...
I din read about it yet, but I almost sure the gnote works like that, cause if i use Skype video call for example, i only get a 1% charge increase around every 10mins, which is really ridiculous ...
plus, while with my other smartphones I could take out the battery while charging it and the phones would keep powered, same thing doesn't happen with the note... battery off while charging, phone also off, which can only mean IMO that the phone is 100% only powered by the battery even when charging...
Besides making it take longer to charge, won't the battery life also decrease that way?..

Hi,
How long does it usually take u guys to recharge ur note from dead or almost?
It took mine. Over 8 hours to charge from 12%.
Also if keep my note on charge but im usimg it for browsing or whatever, my note still dischares.
Is this normal for the note as my htc Desire didnt diacharge while using it while connected to the charger.
Thanks
Neil

Hmmm I've never really timed it but its gotta be around 4hrs for a full charge.
I have been playing Stardom even when charging and it gains battery.
That doesn't sound normal at all.
If u r charging from USB port den its possible. Charging from ac will be a different story
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
Charging by USB is at around 12% per hour, so it does take 8 hours.
Charging by a/c is upwards of 35%/hr.
Some of the apps usage would demand battery usage at 20-25% per hour, so if your battery usage is more than your charging rate then you would be losing battery which is what might have happened when you are using USB charging etc.
If your stats are for a/c charging, then I suspect the charger.
Yeah i charged for 8 hours with ac and also got discharge while using the note and charging.

Depends on what you are using for, but it still doesn't sound right.
Mine charges from 5% to full in about 3 hours when it's just sitting
on the table and I'm just using it for a phone call every now and then.
charging shouldn't take more than 4 hours when done from an AC outlet. just check if you have original batteries and charger. if not, take it to the shop and get it replaced immediately. 8 hours is just too much.

When you are using it heavily while charging it might be normal,
try leaving it alone while charging for one cycle, that'll give you
an indication.
If it's still substantially higher than 3 to 4 hours under these circumstances
you've got a problem, either battery or charger have an issue, or there's an
app sucking battery like hell.
as said, 3-4 hours is normal. Do you have a battery drain issue when in normal use? if yes, then u can use betterbatterystats to check which process is using the juice.
Also, its advisable (in the first cycle after flashing a rom) to charge the phone with switched off. After full charge, take out the battery, wait for 1 min , reinsert & restart. This will help to reset the battery & start afresh.
From 8% to 100% with the charger it took me less than 3 hours.
I only charge by USB on my PC and its never taken close to 8 hrs for a full charge..
The only time charging has taken a very long time for me is when I ran a ICS ROM.
So i did a charge with my usb cable and it tool half the time. Maybw theres a problemwith my ac charger.

use a different charger, i put it down to a **** charger from samsung as mine did the same, woudl discharge even tho was supposedly plugged in and charged
I have noticed in many roms which I tried.......our galaxy ace does not show correct battery %........when I put my ace for charging at 15-20% .......when I check after 5-10 mins battery jumps to directly 55-60%.....and when I remove charge battery drains suddenly to 25-30%.
And when I left my phone for charging for more than 30-40mins phone says that it is charged!!! Wtf
And experiencing sudden drain to 60-70%!
Can anyone help to improve that!!!

Man, if you wanna stay out of this inconsistent battery readings then just blindly charge your phone for more than 2 and half hours. Also use, "Battery Calibration" after full charge every week.

Whats your way of keeping your nexus 7 battery healthy? I wanna keep it as healthy as I can for as long as possible. Nothing irritates me more than having a battery lose its charge faster and faster every day. Just to be clear im not asking how to prolong battery usage between charges; I'm asking how to keep it from losing its charge quicker and quicker when the power usage is relatively the same. One thing I do know is once it the battery hits 100% to take it off the charger. One thing i have heard is try not to let the battery dip below 50% and rarely let it completely discharge but I have also heard to ALWAYS let it die out by completely discharging. Feel free to add to the myths, folklore but preferably facts on how to keep the battery healthy and holding its charge very well
N7 has Lithium polymer battery, right?
Well then read about it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_polymer_battery
But from what I heard: rather charge it then let it drain below 30%, don't let it charge too long, and so on - probably the same stuff you heard or read yourself
but that's something that upsets me: no chance to replace the battery. Used my DHD for 2 years and after those 2 years the battery was just ****ty. Replaced it, works like a charme. On N7 or TF300T there's no chance to replace the battery. Right now I'm using TF300T very often when I'm not at home, so even with dock and tablet it'll most probably go below 20%...well if that's bad for my battery, then I don't know what to do if it doesn't last an entire day :-/ (though that'll take some time)
Certainly I wouldn't let the Nexus battery completely drain but maybe down to 5 % then fully charge

You can change the battery on the nexus 7. Its actually relatively easy and simple to do so. I havent had the need to replace it but I did have to disconnect it. Just pop off the back with your choice of apparatus. I used a small flat head that i could wedge between the sides but a guitar pick is another popular choice. Then just disconnect the wire and take the battery out! no screws just slight pressure holding it in. right here is a guide with pictures showing it step by step.
What I would do is time my charges. In my experience, my Nexus 7 gets fully charged in 2 and a half hours from 20% battery. I then take it out immediately so that in won't get hot(sometimes it does, and also to save energy.:good And also, if after 3 days my battery is still 50% or above, I drain it to 20% then charge since Li-ions tend to not want to get not drained often.xD
Charge early and often and keep out of extreme temperatures. It boils down to that.
If you can, charge it nightly. Try to avoid discharging below 20%.
And a little myth busting... There is no need for you to manage its charging cycle, it will do that itself. Charging a LiIon/LiPoly battery partially is NOT a "charge cycle".
If you're actively using your Nexus 7, just charge it as often as is reasonable, nightly should be just fine. If you're NOT using it for an extended period of time, discharge it to 50%, turn it completely off and store it in a cool (20c/70f range) location.

The battery's are $20 for a new one so as long as it lasts a year I don't mind buying another one. In another question has any one bought a replacement battery yet? And if so does the charge last about the same as stock?

Nope, that was NiCad information, LONG LONG AGO. LiIon/LiPo, charge early and often.

My advice : Charge it when it's between 20%-30%. That's the ideal charge point. Any lower and you're just damaging the battery and any higher is just a waste. As for immediately plugging it out once it hits 100% is utter bull. You see, these modern day batteries found in most phones/tabs have their own resistors which decide how much power enters the battery or if it should enter at all. Once a battery hit's 100%, the resistors kick in and block all incoming power. The "discharging" many believe to happen if we over charge beyond 100% doesn't exist. What happens if you leave a phone or tab alone idly ? It discharges like always. Same thing here, which is why you see your battery bouncing from 100% down to 97%. When that happens, the resistors will allow power back in and thus charging it back to 100%. So you can leave it charging all night and not having to worry about it going beyond 100%. It'll get it's own sh!t together .
So bottom line :
1. Charge when it hits 30%-20%.
2. Don't discharge it (0%) and back to 100%. It doesn't work on modern batts.
3. Don't worry about pulling out when it touches 100% immediately.

Nope. Reboot away. Remember, the only harmful thing you can do and see immediate effects are charging the battery in a very hot enviroment or if you charge it when the battery is 40-50 degrees celcius. It'll either swell up or it'll just catch on fire or explode.

Battery have protection, so You can leave it over night. In the morning You can find batter on 92-96%. That is no problem, it is some kind of overcharge protection. When it came to 100%, it stops charging and start discharging to avoid any battery or phone damage.
I read somewhere that it is good for the phone to be on charge often. Its the charge/discharge cycles that wear out the battery. The battery is only good for a certain amount of charge cycles. For example, if the battery goes down to say 60% then you charge it back to full, thats only 20% of 1 full charge cycle (40% of the discharging half of the cycle = 20%).
I always have my phone on charge overnight. I just updated from a 2 year old Xperia Arc and the battery on that still lasts as long as it did when it was new.
If you think about it, if its on charge and reaches full, it isnt really using the battery is it? Its running off mains.
charging overnight is not bad but letting your battery drain below 10-15% is bad. it is best to charge from 40-50%
For lithium batteries il better charge from 80% To 100 than 10% To 100... The battery is Less stressed... So.. For me over night it's ok, The battery has protection But charging from 10 To 100% no..

Mine is on charge around 80% of the day, yet maintains it's original battery life when it's running off its own juice.
I don't see a problem, the only issue I can think of is that using the phone heavily whilst on charge causes the battery to heat up and this can sometimes be felt through the phones casing.
Sent from my C6603 using xda app-developers app
I use a 350ma charger, it takes about 4.5 hours to charge over night, ( about 7.5 hours). I believe slow charging and not draining the battery too much is the best way.
