[Q] Motorola Turbo Charger - Moto X Q&A

Someone knows if the new Moto Turbo Charger will be able to charge the First Gen of Moto X with this really fast way to charge?

No, it won't. Did you bother reading anything about it?

It will charge, just not fast.

[Q] iPad Air Charger for the Moto G?

I ordered the Moto G as a gift for my sister. The only USB charger she has is the one that came with her iPad Air. Will that one by OK for the Moto G? It is over 2A (2.4A I think) and I read somewhere that Apple doesn't follow the USB charging standards.
If anybody tried the Moto G with the ipad charger please let me know!
Thanks

I tried at my brother's home and it works
Thanks! How fast does it charge? I read somewhere that it could charge with just 0.5A (so really slow) even though the charger is over 2A, is this true?
So, does the iPad charger charge the Moto G at a good speed?
@2014 yes it should charge quickily
Thanks. She tried it and she said the ipad charger charged the Moto G in about 1 hour, which seems fine.
I have a generic 2.1a charger see pics... 1 h 14 min to full from 25%
according to motorola moto g can only use 1,5a max... even if the charger has more power it does not use all...
I thought the device would heat more using this 2.1a charger, but not the same as the 500mA or 850mA... my came with a 850ma charger...

Technically, the phone will automatically reduce the voltage and Ampe it receive. So just plug it in your phone and it does the rest for you.
I have so many chargers in my house, HP Touchpad, Motorla X910, Moto G, amazon 9w2A etc...
just plug into the Hp touchpad or amazon if I wanna charge fast. And the other which isn't in hurry
totally safe ! Unless you intend to use with while charging and the over-heat may cause a problem

Suggest me a charger for my new moto x(1st gen)

Hi all,
I am from India and i just brought a new moto x(1st gen). I dont get a charger with the box. please anybody suggest me a gud charger. is our moto x supports turbo charging ???
You mention both 1st gen and 2nd Gen in your post. Which phone are you looking to get a charger for?
The 1st Gen (aka 2013) Moto X ships with a 1.15A (aka 1150mA) charger. Neither the phone, nor the charger support Turbo Charging. Standard 1A (aka 1000mA) or higher chargers with MicroUSB ends will work to charge it.
I don't have a 2nd Gen (2014) Moto X. But it and its included charger DO support turbo charging. As far as I know, you need a special charger that is compatible with Turbo charging if you want to make use of that feature. But standard 1A (1000mA) and up chargers will work to charge it at "regular" rates.
aside from the fact that we dont yet know which model you have to give you avalid answer this post belongs into the Q&A section
I've seen variation in charge times...
When i use a 1.2 Amp charger ... i can go from 10% to fully charged in ~1 hour . I have a Moto X (XT1053)
My partner has model : XT1052, and it doesn't charge as quickly - I'm not sure if it is because it is the wrong voltage (European model phone). i think Fast charge can be turned on or off at kernel level. Not sure about this however.
I think he is talking about the moto x 1st gen from flipkart which is available for Rs 18000 but without the adapter

If by "fast charge" you mean "turbo charge" like on the new X, that is a function of the new Qualcomm chip used in the 2nd Gen X. See -> https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/quick-charge
As for the XT1053 vs XT1052 charging speed, they both take 5 Volt input which is standard for USB ports and MicroUSB chargers. The speed difference you are seeing could be due to the current supplied by the adapters (i.e. if your adapter is 1.2A and your partner uses a 750mA), OR if there are different apps running on the phone while charging. Example, if Google Maps/Navigation is running on the phone, it will charger slower than if GMaps/Navigation wasn't running.

I've found that some cables will not let the full current through that the charger is rated for. In not sure if it's due to voltage drop our what though, as I don't care enough to dig into it further.
Sent from my Moto X
I have a moto xt1080 .i have no charger plz suggest me a charger

Charging speed/ max amps

Hi. My old moto x is charging very slowly with any 1A ac charger. Tested with other moto x the charger is fine. I think this started happening the same day i let the battery drop to 0%. My moto x only draws 500ma, no matter what. Do u guys have ever seen this problem? I will try a reflash, but i think the problem is the battery... Any 2nd thoughts?

Verizon Moto Mod Case Review

Here's my review of the Verizon case over in the Moto Z Force forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z-force/accessories/verizon-moto-mod-case-review-t3480948
I didn't know that in order to turbo charge work perfectly the cable should be usb-c to usb-c. I bought recently an extra turbo charger for the Moto Z Play, but it must be for the Moto Maxx because it's a travel charger, with a spot to plug a usb 2.0 or 3.0 cable, not a usb-c, and when I plugged the phone, it wouldn't charge the Moto Z Play in turbo mode (and I think it never will) =(
I'll look further into it and see which chargers fit the Moto Z Play for the proper turbo chage.
By the way, it's amazing to know there's a turbo charge for cars, I thought Turbo charging worked only for wall adapters.

charge moto e4 plus

sorry for the noob question but the moto e4 plus can be charge by turbo charge 2.0 or 3.0 ?? thanks..
I think no problem.
Better charge with original charger.
Nope it's only fast charging no Qualcomm quick charging. I own both standards of charger. No indication of fast charging in firmware. My g5 plus shows these indications
