I'm not familiar with the cradle since I'm not(maybe soon to be) a hd2 user but I've got almost the same kind of cradle.
The main problem I have with it that it only allows me to charge the device or the spare battery. I think it's best if you just contact the supplier and ask them if they charge simultaneously.

Motorola Turbo Charger

It looks like the Motorola Turbo Charger is going to be the first Quick Charge 2.0 charger available in the states. Do anyone know if the M8 need a software update for Quick Charge 2.0 to work? 34.99 is not bad if I can charge my phone fully within 15-30 minutes.
What I saw said in 30 minutes of charging, you get 8 hours usage back. My M8 charges in an hour from nearly nothing. And I get about 20 hours a charge.
Just search for 2A chargers. There's one on Newegg that is $5 shipped. I ordered three, one was a dud. Ain't even mad, took its cord and stuck it in one of the others (they all have two ports). Now my wife can charge her phone and her tablet at the same time.

Indeed it does need a software update for QC 2.0 to be enabled. There is a post on this forum from someone who bought the NTT Docomo charger from Japan and it didn't charge any faster than a 1.5A or 2A charger.
Highly Disappointing. I ordered my Motorola charger this morning and didn't realize it would not work without a software update. Very sad.

Didn't they already launched that update, to support the feature?

If they did, I missed it. I hope you are right! I'll have to dig around.
Why not ask htc support directly?
I just confirmed with HTC support and we can use whatever quick-charge 2.0 (qualcomm certified) we wish, the phone is already prepared for that. I also asked if and when would they launch one and they said they have no info regarding that .
I would much prefer buying a HTC one than paying 35 bucks for the motorola one.
I was wondering... This charge don't damage battery?

If it did, would they launch this technology?
It surely limits the number of charge cycles before the capacity dips below 80% of what it started with. The more current the hotter it gets, batteries do not like heat. It accelerates their degradation. I reckon it is not intended for daily charging but to quickly get an 80% charge from time to time.
The Quick-charge only boosts the speed it chargers from 0 to 30 per cent, then it decreases the speed so that dosent happen.
What was the outcome? Will it blend?

Air dock buyer beware!!

Buyer beware. Their customer service is horrible. They specifically emailed me to tell me it would work with the droid turbo and it does not. The phone sticks to the pad fine but does not charge. I repeat: Does not charge. I sent them 2 nice emails asking for support and they have completely ignored me.

Just curious, was it AirDock or AirDock 2? I own AirDock and it charges mine just fine.

Well I have the first edition and it worked great with my S5 Galaxy with the wireless back Samsung cover, but with the Turbo, it just cycles on and off and won't charge. The frustrating thing is that they will not even reply to my courteous request for tech support and/or the inquiry to maybe trade mine/upgrade to the 2.0 for a lesser fee. Kinda sucks if you have to buy a new version every time you change phones. If someone has the S5, i would glady sell mine to them so I could get the 2.0. I assume you have the 2.0? Thanks for your reply.
My 2.0 Just Arrived.
Hi everyone. I may have found a solution... My AirDock 2.0 just arrived and I found the same performance issues. It sticks better to the 2.0, but I could not get it to charge. I was able to make it work by using the proper USB Outlet. Not all USB adapters are equal. If you don't have at least a 2.1 amp input, it WILL NOT connect. Using the car adapter that shipped with the Air Dock works great. It was when I was using my 1.0 amp home plug, or a low powered USB port on the PC for testing that I had problems.
I ask that before you give up on the device, try it on 2.1 amp USB port. If you are not if yours is 2.1, try the one that shipped with it.
Let me know if that helps!
I have an Air Dock 2.0 and I had a problem getting it charging for a while. When I contacted support and did some troubleshooting I found that the USB charger they include is rated for ~2.4A rather than 2.1A. It needs that extra 0.3A to start charging. I also found that leaving the screen off and locked allows for wireless charging to start and overpower the NFC receiver.
By the way, if you wanted to sell the Air Dock, I'd be interested, just send me a PM.

Which wireless charger?

As i am new to wireless charging and maybe some xz2 users too i think about which wireless charger to buy, are all standard or are there different ones for diferent phones, what about charging speeds, and mostly what to watch for before buying... Thanks for answers
Kindly buy the branded once with 10W support since the phone support fast charge. Also you need you use QC3.0 for the wireless charge to kick in fast charge. If brands, better get the sony one.

Wireless Charging

Is there any good wireless chargers out there that are compatible with the Xperia 1 II.
I've got this one ready which I'm presuming will work;
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B07DBXZZN3?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title
I'm not bothered that this may or may not charge at the fastest wireless capabilit, as it'll be my bedside table nighttime charger
I have just backed to that project
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ohsnapofficial/ohsnap-grip-how-smart-people-use-smartphones
i like the fact that it got a magnet so you won't consume a charge cycle for removing it from the dock for few seconds
I'm assuming my Ioniq Premium EV wireless charger will do the trick. A bit on the expensive side, but it comes with a car.
I just bought this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Spigen-Ste...arger&qid=1592015010&sprefix=spigen+wi&sr=8-5
I have a Samsung one and it works ok.

Does it work? How long to charge? What adaptor are you using with it?
Want something by my computer, so needs to be reasonably fast.

It works even with the Spigen case. Though I couldn't say how long it takes as I only use it at nighttime as a stand, plus I have a generic multi-usb plug that it's plugged in to and so it won;t be charging at it's fastest speed anyways.
Sorry not to be of any help there, someone else soon I'm sure will be of more assistance

What do you mean by compatible? Qi is the only wireless charging standard so any wireless charger works
Sent from my XQ-AT51 using Tapatalk
Loads of the wireless charges say Samsung compatible 10watts all other models 5watts
Or Apple compatible etc...
Use the one on the picture. It's old but does the job well. It even works with the official Sony window case.
Do we have an Official Sony OEM Wireless Charger?
I thought my eyes played a trick on me that a few weeks after the Xperia 1 II was announced in February that I saw a new wireless charger accessories in the Sony Mobile UK website. But when I check it again now, it's not there. I wonder if it was never there in the first place and my eyes played a trick on me.
I think the last wireless charger that Sony produced was the WCH20 for the XZ2. But it's said that the product is discontinued, and I find it really difficult to find one. I know I can use any qi-compatible wireless charger (like the Samsung one, which I kind of like), but I don't like having my accessories not part of the Sony ecosystem.
Does anyone know if Sony has an in-production wireless charger or have some plans to reintroduce them as well? I find it odd that they sell a phone with wireless charging capability but not complimented by the accessories needed to fully utilise that feature. Since the product page says that "Wireless charger sold separately". Now, does that mean we have to get it from somewhere else, or that Sony is going to sell their wireless charger separately?
Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.
I bought a Yootech one off Amazon. Works well, puts in just under 3000mah.

I found one at the Sony Center (look at my previous post) but it's an older model. They are planning on bringing back the xz2 / xz3 charger but due to the pandemic the production is slow. There are some New old Stock on ebay and amazon uk

Virtually any Qi charger that supports over 11w charging will work fine.
Only thing is, the phone seem to get hot when wireless charging much more than when using a cable.
Tip
I use a QI stand for my XZ2 P and left the phone on there (usually at night and more) and after 18 months the battery had swollen and was pushing the screen off
New battery fitted and programmed timer fitted to the mains outlet, working out my charging patterns I have set timed on off program that limits the charging times, it has a manual override if I need it but generally don't
so it charges for 2 hours from 4am and 5 more cycles during the day of 30mins each - sometimes I turn it off depending on my usage and charge level - so far working very well
The longest period on continuous charge is 2 hours
I highly recommend this to everyone who finds themselves leaving their phone on charge for long periods

Thanks tonev!
I bought one today from Ebay, 32 euro shipping included
Should I get a 10w or a 15w QI charger?
