I am looking for NEXUS 7 alternate charger which can charge at the same speed the Original Nexus 7 charger charges
unfortunately my nexus 7 original charger has been Burnt Becoz of Charging on UPS Inverter
and i cannot find the Geniune charger Locally
so is there any possiblity i can charge my NEXUS 7 to any other CELLPHONE charger which can charge it to the Same Speed what original does
i bought IPAD3 Charger and that one is charging too much slow need solution

That's because the iPad charger doesn't have the data pins shorted out to enable fastcharge . Easiest way to accomplish fastcharge with your charger, is to buy a charging cable (data pins shorted out, so it is not a data cable:
http://dx.com/p/usb-male-to-lengthe...for-samsung-i9500-9300-htc-white-100cm-207353
It even has the lengthened micro usb connector the Nexus 7 needs.
Or maybe better, buy this one, found in another thread here on XDA, this one is confirmed to work in fastcharge mode with any usb charger:

Yes I know, and that's the reason the iPad charger won't work on fastcharge.
You need to either shortout the data pins of the iPad charger, or use a charger cable with shorted data pins ( a so called charge-only micro usb cable) to make the iPad charger use full capacity (fastcharge mode). There are also cable adaptors for sale that will shortout the data pins for you.

Yep, that one works because it follows the USB standard rules, and not the Apple USB standard.
No iDevice (iPhone/iPad) charger will fastcharge an android phone or tablet without modifying the datapins or use a charge-only cable / adaptor.
The Blackberry Playbook charger is known to work

Get an HP touchpad charger if you can. I can provide empirical evidence that it will actually charge your n7 20 minutes faster than the stock charger. I posted a thread about it here some time ago. "Best aftermarket charger ..." Or something like that.
Plus, my HP touchpad charger hasn't failed to work with whatever device I've plugged into it - idevice or android.

I will suggest the HP touchpad charger for use with the N7... they work great and produce no noticeable heat when not connected... shows good efficiency.:good:
Check Ebay -= just did a quick search and got 131 hits anywhere from 8-20 USD. I"ve bought 2... one is firmly set to be my preferred travel charger for any USB device.

Someone did a in depth look at factory and aftermarket chargers and it came out way better in terms of current provided and cleanliness of power without spikes or dropouts.

That will do the trick - but you don't need another cable if you already have one.

I went with the charger without cable option and got 2 chargers for less than that price. Just have eBay sort the search results by price+shipping and optionally USA sellers only to find a better price without waiting for a slow boat from China.

If the charger puts out less than the tablet needs then it will just charge slower (or not at all if it's really low) and if it puts out more than the maximum the tablet uses the extra will just go unused. Voltage is a different issue.

Having your device plugged into a USB 2 500mA computer port obviously charges slower then a 2000mA wall charger. It would be pretty faulty design if plugging your device into your computer would cause hardware damage.

Man, this really sucks, the Monoprice cable mentioned earlier in this thread is having the same issue I had with another micro USB cable, it doesn't seem to fit into the Nexus 7 snugly, it doesn't seem to go in all the way. (I hope I don't have a busted charging port), It doesn't seem to charge it at all, even with the stock Nexus AC adapter. I'm about to break down and buy the official Google charger again, even if all I need is a new micro USB cable.

I'm using 2 different monoprice cables, one in my car and one at home, and both fit well. Sounds like the port has gotten damaged.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Xparent Purple Tapatalk 2

So, I just decided to buy a whole new charger off Amazon. If that won't work and I determine that the micro USB port is busted, I'm not going to be very happy, haha. does anyone know if Google repairs them for a fee?

I use a Playstation Vita charger which seems to charge my N7 very fast. On the other hand, I've tried an old mobile charger also and the battery level goes down whilst plugged into it.

If under warranty and purchased from the PlayStore, yes, otherwise, if under warranty, ASUS.

Slow USB charging?

Anyone notice this? It actually loses charge, faster than it can charge. Using same computer ports as when I had my note 3.

Use the wall plug. A computer does not put out enough
NOTE 4

Using any 2 amp charger I find it charges surprisingly fast. Computer ports usually give you only .5 amps. If you were using a USB 3.0 port and cable with the Note 3 you might have been getting much more juice out of the same port.

Yeah, my computer has USB 2.0 and 3.0. Like I mentioned earlier, my note 3 didn't have any issue. Strange.

Gps and navigation software use a lot processing power and the screen stays on all the time, so shouldn't be a surprise that battery goes down fast. In order to keep up with discharging rate you need 2A or more battery charger usb port is not sufficient.

Powerbank for nexus 5x

What is a good power bank for the nexus 5x that can charge fast and hold a few charges?
I'll be camping next week and would like something for pictures and biking and hiking, and for pictures. Not in network but would like for pictures, will be running in airplane mode to save battery.
Any help would be appreciated.

Well the slimmest ones are about the same dimensions as the phone but thicker, 5000mah, and are usually only 1A. So that would only get you something like 1.5 charges at a slow speed.
I would go with something like a 10000mah capacity. Those are usually 2.4A and now support Quick Charging 3.0 making it good for possible future devices. It'll also get you a good 3 whole charges at a decently fast speed. It's also still relatively pocketable especially compared to the bigger ones.
I have the older QC 2.0 version of this paired with a short 1 foot USB-A to type-C cable:

It's on the short narrow yet thick side. I don't carry it around all the time but only when I definitely know I'll be using the phone a whole lot for videos/pictures. It's in the glove box most of the time for just in case.

have never managed to drain the battery within one weekend, it even lasts a full 5-day week with moderate - heavy use and I managed a full 7 days with my phone battery and the power bank. The latter of course with not so heavy use, but I was still impressed.

I have the One Plus 10000 mAh powerbank and use it with the original cable + micro usb to usb-c adpater. No rapid/fast charging, but the phone charges pretty fast anyways.

If you're using a type A to type C cable, it'll only charge at a 1.8A or 2.0A with 5V rate and not hit 3A mark. It might say "Charging rapidly" but actual numbers are lower than the stock charger. Basically, at 15% over 60 minutes (with the screen off and no use) you'll probably be around 70%. Stock gets you to 90%.

Got myself a Xiaomi 20.000mah powerbank a few weeks ago. Works very good and I am able to charge my phone around 5/6 times. The phone doesn't say 'Fast charging', but I think it is pretty fast. Would definitely recommend.

Used it camping for a few days, charged it up two full times, took about an hour to get to about 95%

Plain and simple but alot useful.
I am using Kingston Mobilelite Wireless G2 (I think there is G3 now)
Powerbank, SD card, USB, Wifi/LAN bridge in one.
I can stream music/video, copy files and charge at the same time.

I would recommend buying Xiaomi Powerbank 10000 mAh Pro - it's designed for USB-C devices and charges Nexus 5X really well.

Type C cables

Does it really make a difference what kind of Type C cable you use? If so what is the fastest and best cable to use.

USB 3.1 will give faster speeds than the stock cable which is USB 2.0.
Of course 3.1 cables are more expensive.

And they are harder to find longer than 6ft.

no such thing as fastest and best when it comes to things that stick to an official spec.
usb spec is a spec all companies must adhere to. one company cant provide more or less than another if they are making cables that use the USB 3.1 spec.
if you want to take advantage of 3.1 usb speeds, look for cables that have the spec clearly on the cable and in the information.
for example, i use these, but there are many others that are also just a good.

They don't exist. They are rarer than Unicorns!

current usb 3.1 gen 1 cables that SPEC "10Gbps SuperSpeed" can only exist currently in cables less than 4 feet. this is the length the cables can be to stick to the spec (currently).
will no doubt change as cable tech catches up to make longer ones.

That's a bit much for charging a device. The cost of those cables are because of the converters on each end.
The best use for them is the Xbox One Kinect to extend its range of connectivity. I'm sure there are others though.
I do believe also that Android kernel does have a cap on how fast the charge is accepted on the device, to better keep the components and battery safe.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/5b7ahk/study_critique_apples_rectangular_box_2m_usbc/
Look up benson, he reviews USB C cables and points out the good and the bad.
I have few of the apple USB c cables and they're on the recommended list. A bit costly at $20 but it's more of a universal USB c cable that you can charge devices up to 100w with it. (Apple uses it for their 87w MBP) I guess technically all of his approved cables fit the USB c standard and should handle high current fine but I'm just paranoid.

This right here!!
Been using these cables , powerline series ,for awhile. Almost indestructible, charge faster the stock cables and transfer better. 6 footers great , but 3 footers feel faster, must be 3.1 vs 3.0 . Can't go wrong with Anker.

The OP asked a question, I asked for more info.

@jason504,
In terms of charging, they are not different. As mentioned, the cable that currently ships with the device wont give you faster throughput than an aftermarket cable.
if you want to take advantage of faster data transfer speeds of the 3.1 spec, you are recommended to look into a 3.1 spec USB cable.
I use choetech but brand Cable Matters is also another good quality brand of cable. There are others as well...

Note 4 vs Note8 Charger

Wasn't the Note 4 fast charging as well? If output is the same, why would it be slower?
OP, you will need to use the appropriate adapter included with your note 8 to plug the older charger into the new usb-c plug on the Note 8.

I'm using my note 4 charger with my note 8 and no issues. It takes about 1 hrs and a half to charge full (I have the fast charge turned off ).
Only reason for the note 4 charger because I bought the note 8 international version and I can't use the power brick here. And yes the voltage is the same on both chargers.

note 4 was the first iteration of quick charge.
We aren't on the first iteration anymore

You can always use a standard travel adapter with the original power plug too if you ever need it.

Am i missing something ? Bothe Note 4 and Note8 support Quick Charge 2.0. The specs of the charger are exactly the same , so I guess the chargers are identical !
