Xperia z1 Stock charger is 1.5A . Since i Lost My charger I am Planning to get original sony 2A charger . is it okay to charge Z1 with 2A charger . If i charge it with 2A charger , will the charge drain Too Soon ??
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum.
For more questions about you must register an account on XDA
Stand by
Good luck
No, if phone is limited to use 1.5 it will drain only 1.5 no matter of how much strong charger you connect it to.

You probably mean 2A (or 2000mA).
I don't know if 2mA will work though.. Maybe you will need to charge it while it's off, and it will still take a few days (weeks maybe?) to fully charge.

My phone charger broke and now it connects to the phone with a lot of difficulty, so I can hardly charge the phone. Do you happen to have any link to original charger where I can buy?
Here-
Amazon - http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Ericsson...?ie=UTF8&qid=1344437610&sr=8-1&keywords=ep800
eBay - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-So...ccessories&hash=item19ce80b4d1#ht_1477wt_1154
Just go down to any nearest Sony Ericsson service center, there you can get original charger..

also can charge from other android phones charger. most of the androids has micro usb charging.
I charge my phone with my dad HTC wildfire S charger!:laugh:
I charge using BlackBerry charger, and it charged. :laugh:
When you use a charger for another device you must be sure that the Output Amperes are equal or less than the ones of the original charger
of your device because you will propably damage your device!!

no they are not all same
samsung provides 850mA current while our charger has 1A.
as our battery is 1200mAh we can give max 1.2A current to it (considering 1C discharge)
so i recommend to use any USB charger with 5V and 1A rating. apple chargers also use the same.
also buy a good company charger. dont use any china charger as they lack in overvoltage protection and all (i am not offending any chinese people in xda ).
and our PC USB port provides 5V 500mA, so we can use it also but it will take time to charge phone.
press thanks if helped.

jst a query.....doesnt our x8 charger(ep800 greenheart) outputs 850mA...???????
though charging with 1A provides fast charging.....good or bad?

every phone has built in charging IC and it provides high current with fast charging and when battery is about to charge full it reduces current and charges device normally so that there will not be any overcharging.
and our battery is LiPo not LiIon so we have advantages over more current draw and fast charging. also we can charge battery at ny time, it is not needed to charge it when battery is about to die to extend its life like in other batteries.
so you do not need to worry.
and my W8 original greenheart charger rating is 5V 1A

Quite wrong there.The only thing that will happen is that the phone will take longer to charge if the mAmperes are less than the original chargers.If they are more it wont have any problem or it may even charge faster depending on the internal charge controller.
Just so you keep it in mind, the mAmps a charger states, is the MAXIMUM it can provide, not the mAmps it FORCES into the device.Every device drains as much power as it is configured to drain when it was built.
Its the OUTPUT voltage you must be careful at, though every charger the last 8 years outputs 5-7 volts which is fine. :laugh:
@above
True.. The phone will only draw the power it requires even if the charger has a higher rating..

Well in this case you write nonsense ...
Sony Ericsson is the Sony Ericsson and not combined with other devices.
But if the charger fits why not a battery but it does not improve in the same way as other charges

Nonsense is not a very polite word, i d prefer inaccurate.
In this case both statements are wrong.There is no manufacturer constrain when using smartphones and chargers, as long as they both have the same plug (aka micro usb).
The chargers are not actually chargers, they are power supplies.As stated above each phone only takes the amount of power its charge controller IC dictates it to.So there is no better life with samsung charger nor SE for SE phones and not combining with other devices.
Use whatever charger you can find (as long as it is of some brand) and it will do the trick.If it says many mAs(like 1000 or more) good for, you, faster charge if the phone allows it, if it says less mAs you ll just have to wait more, but the battery wont get damaged, whatever charger you use!

O rly?
According to your logic
There must be charger that charges X8 in just 1 minute :silly:
see boot animation without rebooting

Why dont you grab a 70Ah charger and try and tell us your results then? :good:
In the meantime read carefully what i posted. i stated :' if the phone allows it". Meaning you can put a 2Ah charger but unless the phones charge controller allows it you cant charge in that rate.Ofc you shouldnt charge Lithium batteries with more than 1C in the first place but thats another story.
Finally i ve converted old cellphone chargers i had in a shelf to have USB output and they all work great, though they charge slower since they are 500mAh rated.
Hello I have two questions... First is if I can charge all the phones with the fast 1500mah charger of Xperia Z1???
To my old Xperia sp, charger was 850 mah, can I charge an Xperia SP with 1500mah charger?
Yes your phone.will only take as much.current as it needs

so i can charge with the 1500 mah charger a battery that is 1650mah capacity ? but it wil charge FASTER than a normal charger ? that's the point ?
Wait, you are mixing things up! Your Xperia Z1 Charger does supply 1500 mA (which means 1,5 Ampere) of current at 5,0V DC.
Your Xperia S Battery has a Capacity of 1650 mAh (or 1,65 Ampere Hours) which means that it can supply 1,65 Ampere of continuous current for 1 hour (at 5V, I guess)
So: Yes, you can use a bigger charger and it will charge your phone faster, in this case nearly twice as fast. This will not damage your phone, as it will (as already said) just take the maximum current it can make use of.

I thought it was the chipset/kernel which had fast charge capabilities, not the charger?
If the phone only takes the maximum current it will make use of, it doesn't matter what the charger is spitting out, the phone will only draw what it needs to.
I could be wrong, but my Nexus 4 charged at exactly the same speed when I used my Nexus 7 charger as it did with the stock charger.

You are perfectly right! And it's also what I wanted to say. Of course if your phone is not able to draw more than 750 mA, a bigger Charger is useless.
But one can safely try it out!
Hi I bought my xperia z about 2 days ago, when i use it while it is connected to the charger it keeps discharging. I use the original data cable and usb to mains charger.
I am using stock 4.2.2, and i have rooted it and unlocked the bootloader.
Please help, thanks

it's factory.. there is no fix for that .. in the manual says that you better don't use the headset while charging .. it consumes more power than the coming..
I think that it's protect for li-ion battery in xperia Z.

What charger are you using? If the 1500 mah wall charger that came with it, then it should charge just fine.
If some other charger thats rated lower, then you'll end up using more power.
When I got my GPS working and screen set to 100%, my phone uses 800-900mah or so. My 760mah car charger is hardly able to keep up with it.

The 'out the box' charger will charge the phone in its sleep state pretty quickly, however if you start using it (which isn't recommended might I add) you'll use more juice than the charger supplies pretty easily. Things like gaming or music will drain the battery quicker than it charges.
So try this...
Turn your screen brightness right the way down
Avoid gaming or music, or play music through a BT speaker/headphones
Turn off your internet connections
and finally....buy a better charger
I lost my xperia z' s charger and so I brought a samsung note 2 original charger, since it is a 2000mA charger it can charge xz faster than its original cahrger ( xz can support 2 - 2.1 A charging current at max), and then due to loss of my usb cable along with the charger, I bought a 1.5 mts china cable. Ofcourse it do the charging, but its charging time is slower than what I get using a 1 mt high gauge nokia cable.
So this is what I learned, to get proper charging, we need to use original charger and a good quality high gauge usb cable too.
But since I wanted a lengthy cable of about 1.5-2 mts, I am going to buy a high gauge lengthy cable. Now here is my question;
Do anybody knows an app which realy works on xperia z which can detect the charging current properly?? I tried current widget, samsung charging current apps, and few others, all those apps shows some random numbers which changes randomly ( eg :- 300,206,540,750) , some does shows -ve values also, which totaly make no sense since I am plugged into a 2A charger!!
Thanks in advance.

Try Android Tuner app by 3c(available on playstore)
In app>>battery manager>>status shows the battery flow also the current capacity and a lot of other info
Also a negative value does makes sense...once your battery is fully charged the current flow is "cut-off" to prevent overcharging the battery and eventually damaging it.

I already have that, think its not correct, coz I used a 2amp charger, ( note the charging current) this is why I asked. I think the stock kernel is not reporting it correctly???

Hi there, I just wanted to try something...
I see that my Z3C charges very slow with the original UK charger. It charges 800mah every sec9nd. So I tried with the iPad charger and it is still the same.. maybe abit lower, at 600mah. what is going on? it takes almost 3-3.5 ahours to charge this phone... seriouslly? Sometimes I forget to charge it overnight and chargin it at day is like charging though a USB port...

Maths.
2600 mAh battery.
800 mA charger.
2600/800 = 3.25 or 3 hours and 15 minutes.
Today, I don't think this phone can accept anything like 2A charger (don't really know) . Else, it would take 1.3h or 1 hour and 18 minutes.
Get a 2A charger, disconnect every electrical equipment and charge your phone.

But this is strange....If the stock charger says it gives 1.5A, then why is it charging so much slower? at 600 or 800 mah? thats like USB pc speed... Isnt this device supported for quick charge 2.0? I may be able to buy a quick charge capable charger so it charges faster? any solution?

Ever thought about your phone using power too? Plus some power is lost in heat.

Yes Quickcharging will improve charging time. But as stated above it also depends if you use your phone in the meantime and its idel consumption. The fastest charging time will be if you turn of your phone and then start charging.
I'm getting over 1600mA (according to cooltool), phone charges in 1.5 hours... Factory 1500mA charger, its the same with regular usb and magnetic connector. Rooted 4.4.4

WOW, 1.5 hours, thats just impossible for me. I wonder what is going on... I will check on cooltool
Turn off and charge your phone, and check how fast its charging, mine takes about 1.45hrs with 1.5A factory charger.
Guys I bought a supposed quick charger for my Sony Z3C. When it arrived i read the specs on it and they were 5V 2A. Is it safe to use with my Z3C? If so will it actually make charging quicker?
cheers
It sure is safe (and quick), charge on
so is the stock charger charging at what? it says 1.5A; 800 or as stated 1.5?
