[Q] Wireless Charging - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have brought the Nexus6 64GB. The phone is great, so that I can do a part of my work through the phone.
THe problem is that I am not able to charge wirelessly. I have plugged in the charger in a power socket on my desk and placed the phone on the top of it. It doesn't charge. Do I need any additional component or enable something to do this ? Could you please show me how wireless charging works ?
Thanks.

Nothing extra needed. Might be that either your phone or your charger is faulty. Try another charger and/or another phone on the charger you have.
Also make sure that you actually hit the charging spot. Can be quite tricky on some chargers.

Hello,
Thanks for the reply.
The following is the charger that I got with my Nexus6. First of all, is this a Wireless Charger or just Turbo Charger ?

Thats a turbo charger. A wireless charger is a "stand" that you stand your phone on.

Thanks danarama for the clarification. So I understand that this Turbo Charger doesn't have the Wireless Charging feature. (I was wondering how I'll be able to balance my phone on the top of that charger, without falling down )
So if I need a wireless charger, which one I have to buy and from where ? From Google Store ?
Thanks.

There are so many that will work. Any Qi charger in fact pretty much. If you browse through the N6 accessories section on XDA, there will be loads of discussions about them

Yes, as already stated, that's not a qi charger... I use and highly recommend the Itian A6. Works like a charm!

no we need it then say why iphone doesn't have wireless charger and I read it in many articles
You can get wireless chargers for the iPhone but not built in, you need to buy a case that has wireless charging capabilities. The only reason NFC would be used would be for proximity reasons so it doesn't sit there trying to charge thin air but NFC is not used to charge the phone.

But what about induction process and thanks
No wirles charger exists?
Not possible on this Phone?
Possible, but requires a bit of dexterity... video
Okay guys,
If you want a wireless charger, you can make it by yourself with only $2
Wireless charging is a simple technology, I know it because I'm working for a research institute
However, you must pay more money for "good-looking" accessories, with only $2, your accessories will be very "ugly" (they look "ugly" in my eyes)
Maybe wireless charging is not done via NFC
Hi,
I just Qi-enabled my gt-i8190n with an "Universal Wireless Charger Receiver for Micro-USB Cellphone" from dx.com (SKU 312818). It doesn't fit all that well. The cord is a bit long and the receiver unit blocks the flash... But it charges. Wirelessly.
Today I also noticed that they have an Qi charger made for SGS3 mini (SKU 337290). I'll order that too to se how it fits...
Then you just need to add a protective case of your choice.
Sorry for advertising dx, but that is the only store I have found to sell Qi-receiver for SGS3 mini. :/ (okay, sometimes you can find these in ebay too)

i believe it is fine. I use any charger with a micro usb and never had a problem. Never even considered looking at the output levels. The stock charger coming with the phone is 5v 1150ma so you should be fine with that charger. the stock charger i believe is some fast type charger or something because it charges that beast up real fast like.
how long you got your phone fully charge let's say it start charging from 10% ? 2 hours ?

My Moto take a lot of time to charge

Hey guys, I need help.
Since I bought my Moto a days ago, the phone takes a lot of time to charge. I'm talking of 15hours-1day to full charge.
I used different USB cables and chargers of different amperage but nothing, all the same.
I don't know what the problem is. The battery? USB port?
With Ampere app, it shows like 70-100mah when charged and -210 mah of discharge when no plugged. It is normal?
Help me guys ?.

That is incredibly strange. Have you tried charging when the phone is off? What charger are you using, does it specify output amperage and voltage?
I have found mine to be very sensitive, as well as my Moto X Play. They seem very dependent on the cable as well. I'm currently using Anker cables with my phones and haven't had any trouble.
I'm used different chargers. A original Nokia charger with 550mah (very very very slow). Original iPhone charger with 1A (very slow). Original LG charger with 750mah (very slow). Generic charger with two ports, 1A and 2.1A but works better with 1A port; the same, very slow. All with 5V.
I charged with the phone off and the same, very slow. And the problem persists when you used while is charging; it's like the phone just don't charge, the battery still drain (fast) but the battery icon shows the charging icon.
I used a Samsung cable as well as the LG cable.
i also dont know whats happening while recharging. with my different solutions, via adapter plus cable or a 'native' recharger (all up to 5V/2A) my moto just recharge up to a maximum value of 350ma/h.
and this without any real consumption.
I think that the USB port is damaged. Or maybe the battery.

Slow charging, 9 hours till full from 23%???

Is there a work around for the phone not recognizing a non-OEM charger and charging slowly? There HAS to be a way around this! My G2 is currently sitting at 23% and it says that it will take 9 hours to charge till full!?!?! Even with a generic charger there is no way it should take 9 hours to add 77% to my battery. Any suggestions from anyone, other than buying the OEM charger? I know they're only $10 on eBay but if I could buy one I would have.

What cable are you using? Cheap USB cable have small gauge wires that cannot carry the current this phone draws and will create a large voltage drop which eventually terminates or slows the charging process.
I have a cheap 1A knockoff car charger and use a very short USB cable (1ft) and my phone charges almost as fast as at home.
T
EDIT: Also check the USB port in the phone - if there is lots of lint in there, it prevents the connector from seating and making good contact.
The USB port is fine but I'm using a 2.1amp plug that supports quick charging and a regular 6ft microUSB cable. Still getting the "charging slowly" message.

Must have been a problem with CM13 or something. After restoring my stock backup I no longer get the "charging slowly" message and the phone definitely charges fast now.
I would try charging while completely shut down.
Yes its an issue with the rom you are using. I would suggest you use stock lollipop rom with dorimanx kernel to get the most outta your device.

Fast charge problem

Hi. My phone is on stock MIUI 12.0.1. It is not rooted nor unblocked.
The phone came with a regular (5VĂ—2A=10W) charger that works fine. I tried to charge it with with two different Samsung chargers (9V x 1.67A = 15W) and it does detect that it is fast charger yet the battery level keeps dropping.
Do I need a 18W charger? Do you think it is a bug/hardware problem? It is still under warranty.
Thanks!
Ampere - Apps on Google Play
Measure the charging and discharging current of your battery.
play.google.com
Install this and screenshot the screen to me, while the phone is plugged in.
First picture is with the regular 10W xiaomi charger and second with the 15W Samsung one. Sorry about the spanish words but you can see the voltage and current. Both Samsung chargers show about the same and they both work fine with their phones. Samsung chargers say "adaptive fast charging"

May not be compatible fast charging technologies.
Yeah... I've been doing some more research and that is what I'm thinking too... The phone is supposedly compatible with "qualcomm quick charge 3.0" and just maybe it is not compatible with Samsung chargers. What I did not expect was for the phone to actually discharge while plugged in. I will try to test a different charger and report back but being COVID times and everyhting it may take a while. Thanks to both of you!

Best bet is to use a OEM charger and cable.
I have 2 sets for my Samsung... makes troubleshooting easier.
