This might be the stupidest question i have ever asked in XDA forum but..... I really want to know the answer to make sure it won't do anything bad to my Z1.
I used galaxy note 2 charging adapter which is a bit stronger than the original z1 charger (1500mA Vs 2000mA) and found out that charging time difference is quite noticeable. i guess 500mA difference is huge.
Since I read few news that people were experiencing fire or explosion while they were charging (or something, which i don't know if it's 100percent true) i want to know if putting too much power is bad for the Z1.
the charge for z1 is 2A. You can plugin 3A, but it wont take that extra, can only accept max 2A.
Generally speaking having extra 1A wwill heat up device but wont cause fire, unless you put in 1000A then it will explode

Use whichever charger you have. Using a 2A charger will of course decrease charge time. Using a 3A charger will do nothing for you, because phone only accepts 2A if I remember correctly.

Using a 1000A or 3A charger will not make a difference. Phone will not heat up more than using a 2A charger. The phone will draw those 2A and nothing more. Unless there's a custom kernel parameter we can change to increase charging current.

That is correct. Stock supplied charger is 1.5A, at least in the scandinavian countries.
I charge my Z1 with N7 charger (2.0) and everything is O.K.
Just like guys said - Z1 can use up to 2.0 and it's perfectly safe to use it but make sure charger is good, if you use junk for 1$ you could damage your device.
If we gave 1000$ for device we can pay 10$ more for good charger.

I only ever use the 1.5A factory charger if I'm leaving it overnight. Its too slow otherwise so I also use a 2A charger from my Asus transformer
Hey you who pretend to know it all, let me clarify
You are saying the official charge is 1.5, but also say it take 2a as well, let me ask you, why do you think the phone can only overcharge up to 2 a and not to 3a as you were denying me?
My charger say it is 2a, it is official, dont being rude and frankly deny other opinion, at least try "from my poimt of view"
Sent from my C6903 using xda app-developers app
U might have a real special packaging as it usually comes with only 1.5mA
Also snapdragon 800 supports quickcharge 3.0 which allows chargers up to 4.0mA
These chargers will release in 2014
Hello guys...
Bought this new moto g2 2 days back 16gb dual sim..
Battery backup is okay... But battery charging takes alot of time.
It takes 1 hour to charge 20-25% i.e 3-3.5 hours for full battery.
Any other chargers to charge it fast?
And please can anyone suggest a good power bank for my moto g2
As i cant sit and use my phone while it gets charged for 4 hours.
Thanks..

Try using the one with another device or go to your local tech store, they will have one, or if they dont Y U DONT SELL DEM!
Use a charger with atleast 1500mA Output.
I have a few chargers that knock out 2,000 mah .. should be safe with those , shouldn't It ??
Yes it is safe.

I can confirm the charging time, with my 2A charger it only takes about 1:30 to full.
Does the phone gets heated up with the 2a charger and is the battery backup the same when its charged with the 2a charger.

Turbocharger needs fastcharge script,
THis script is in built in seveal custom kernels and also those used in CM12.
So if you install CM12 which has fastcharge support, tubocharger should work fine
Orignal charger takes 2.5 to 3 hours
use this "Sony CP-AD2 USB AC Adaptor" for your phone
use this Sony CP-AD2 USB AC Adaptor for Charging
You can by from amazon from this link:
Quick Compare:
Output: 5V 2.1A VS 5V 500mA(0.5A) as compared to original charger from Motorola
This charger charges your full phone in around 1 n 1/2 hr.
I found this as best charger around 500 bucks
Use orignal charger only. becoz other charger might damage u r battery.
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?
I've been using my HTC Rapid Charger Quick Charge 2.0 with my new Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet and it charges in just under 3 hours for a 0 to 100% charge.
Not sure what the standard charge time is with the stock charger, since I haven't even taken it out of the box Just easier for me to use the same charge and cable to charge both my phone and tablet. Has anyone else measured that?
My HTC One M8 usually gets quite hot during quick charging, but didn't notice the same thing with the Z2. It only went up to around 35 degrees at the highest, for a short while.
I need 4.5 hours with stock charger (15% to 100%).

So 2.0 quick charging is working?
Do you really get 60% in first 30 minutes with HTC charger?
Yes, it's listed here:

Does anybody know where to buy a quickcharge 2.0 charger with a euro plug?

No, those 60% in 30 mins is claimed with a much smaller phone battery..not with our 6000 mAh tablet battery. On my HTC One M8, it gets to about 50% in 30 mins.

Are you from Denmark? I bought mine from here: http://www.mytrendyphone.dk/shop/htc-tc-p1000-164522p.html
Not the cheapest option, but the only one with euro plug that i could find.
got official answer:
Thank you for contacting Sony Xperia Support.
To be able to utilise the Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 technology, the smartphone or tablet as well as the charger need to support Quick Charge 2.0. If you want to use a magnetic charging dock, this must also support Quick Charge 2.0.
Currently, there are no original Sony chargers that support the Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 technology. This means that, at present, you cannot charge Xperia™ devices using original Sony chargers utilising Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0.
However, some Xperia™ devices and magnetic charging docks are prepared for and support the Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 technology. Again, as there is currently no original Sony charger that supports Quick charge 2.0, these devices cannot utilise Quick Charge 2.0 using an original Sony charger.
Regarding the charge time, according to our environmental declaration a full charge takes 5.8 hours while the tablet is turned off.

Wow, a normal full charge takes 5.8 hours? Even with tablet off..that sounds a bit crazy. Then im definitely glad i'm using the Quickcharger and getting it done in half that time..even with the tablet powered on.
As for the magnetic charger, it has been confirmed in other Xperia forums that Sony's dock and magnet supports Quickcharging, but most 3rd party ones don't. I'm using some cheap magnetic connector from eBay, and it charges quite slow (and half the times the magnet doesn't even keep it connected and it keeps falling off )
from my experience tablet charges in 4 hours (even if it`s turned on, from original SOny charger 1.5A 5V), from 20-30% to full. So this estimation is correct.
Anyone can recommend a good ansd cheap charger that support QC 2.0 or there already some thread about this on XDA somewhere?

Not sure where you are from but there are several good and cheap ones on Amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/Qualcomm-Cert...obile_desktop?ie=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0
There is not really any difference between all of them, as long as they are certified by Qualcomm to work with QC 2.0.
There's a list of all certified chargers on this page: https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/quick-charge

When i use the original sony z3+/z4 charger, my older phone is able to get higher Amp from it than its desinated phone. It has about 10% or 15% more. its always under 1AMP when charging z3+ using its own charger.
MIne is around 1.4X Amp (using Ampere app to measure). I use Aukey Quick Charge 2.0 Charger (that is not supported by my Z3+ Dual, Voltage always stay at less than 5).

You meant 0.5amp for your z3+ eh.
You have 2 z4 ?
it is strange that my older xperia is able to draw more power from the same charger, wish there is some modification to change it in the phone so it can charge faster.
