Charging Pixel 5 in a Hot country - Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers

I live in a country where temperatures in the summer range from 41 to 43 c.
When the battery temperature reaches 37–38°C, my Pixel 5 starts charging at 5 Watt, and it takes about 3 hours to complete full charge.
However, if I put my phone in the fridge and cool it to 27–28°C, it charges at 14–15 watts.
Is it possible to increase the slow charging restriction from 38 to 42 / 43 degrees? I have root and magisk installed with stock rom.
My Pixel 4A and Oneplus 8T both continued to charge for 15–18 W and 60-65 watt even when they were at 38–41C.
I don't have air-conditioning in room most of the time I'm charging.

This is a safety feature; overcharging hot batteries is a fire risk. I do not recommend trying to change this. Use a fan or something to help your phone dissipate heat while charging.

From what I've read about Pixel 5 it seems a little extra heat is common, and that its 765G is throttled to keep it under control. Mine gets hot during rapid charge but not so much during trickle phases. The phone is hot when using the camera and Gcam crashes a lot, which may be heat related but I'm not sure about that since everything else runs ok. I use a TPU case and think about no case at all or getting something thinner that breathes better.

Xiaomi MI5 temps while charging.

I can feel very hot the phone while is charging but i know at some level is normal for the quick charging, but i will like to know what parameters are normal or acceptable?
I try with a different charger (Xiaomi Redmi Note 3) and is gettin hot too.

My charging temperature is 43 degree Celsius using stock charger, I search on Google battery should be charged between 5-45 degree Celsius, so I think it's quite normal.
What's your charging temperature?
Around that too man. Thanks
I think it's not necessary to use quick charge provided by original charger most of times.
During night for example using a normal charger will warm and therefore damage much less the battery

Charging speed

To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the Google Pixel 2 can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
I am horrifically disappointed in this device's charging speed.
I was very pleasantly surprised by how fast this phone charges, untill the past few days. Now all the sudden it seems very average. "Charging Rapidly" is not anywhere near as impressive now as it was. Has anyone else experienced this? I want to figure out if it's just the phone (I have seen other slow charging complaints but not this specifically), or if I caused it.
I installed that stock kernel with security pass patch, twrp beta1, Magisk 14.4.2, and Viper4Arise. Pretty confident that it's not any of those things, but everything else is pretty standard.
This is the case with the charger that came with the P2 in box, the older N5x charger, and the usb-c car charger. I know the new P2 one is stronger, but the change is noticable all around.
My 'Charging Rapidly' also does not seem to be all that rapid, using the charger that came in the box and can take quite a while to get to 100%.

It takes hours to get to 100%. I recently got hold of a USB-A to USB-C cable and plugged the phone into my Nexus 6 brick. The difference was astounding. Full charge in about 1.5 hours. It's sickening that I spent the money on this phone only to have it be so disappointing. I'm a diehard Google fanboi but this is ridiculous.
Definitely miss my 1+5 dash charge. Damn that thing was fast.
Some numbers, today I connected my phone at 19% with stock charger.
- 30 min charge: 19% to 56%
- 40 min charge: 19% to 67%
I don't think that's bad, it's definitely not FAST, nor regular. But considering all the issues the 6P had with batteries, I don't really want to charge my battery in less than one hour. (Specially now that the phone has at least 3 years of updates, I'd like to have 90% of battery life or more in 3 years)
I'll have to do another test, something like from 35% to 80% (this would be more real life, I only need a 2nd charge when I'm traveling in a city with a power bank, using Maps and Camera all the time).
Ultra fast charging and wireless charging are some of the features that I care less in the phone. I want some fast charging between 30% and 90%, but I don't require it to be extremely fast.
TL : DR: If you value an ultra fast charging over other things in a phone, definitely skip the Pixel 2.
p2's charging current is capped at 2700ma (could be up to around 3200ma by kernel hax), meanwhile high battery temperature (over 45 Celsius degrees) and others things such as screen state will cap the current more (half or more)
Without those restricts, fully charge time should be around a hour.

My Pixel 4 XL runs considerably warmer than my previous 7 Pro

I have them here side by side and the Pixel 4 XL gets like 8-9 degrees celsius warmer than the 7 Pro with normal use
The 4 XL is at around 29 degrees celsius when idle (battery temp), and then it gets to 38 degrees celsiuswith normal use
The 7 Pro is at around 26 degrees celsius when idle and then it gets to 31 degrees celsius.
Yesterday I received the 4 XL and apart that it takes the best pictures I've ever seen on a phone, it's a little bit uncomfortable to use because it gets warm when using it normally
And yesterday I was uploading a file through WeTransfer and I got this overheat notification/warning.
The ambien temperature here is like 26 degrees celsius
Don't you find it uncomfortable?
Temp test: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auqmaqK1GTs
Had the device since release. Not once have I ever seen an overheat warning. I've charged it whilst using. I've played heavy games.. I run about 26-30c ambient.
If your device is overheating and you get the notification then clearly your device is defected as the device itself should cool itself/throttle down as your temps rise.

Rog phone 3 overheating?

Hi,
I noticed that my phone's system temperature while using bypass charging and gaming is around 35 to 42 degrees and 30 to 35 degrees when idle. i reckon heat is the greatest enemy of the phone's durability
. Don't you think this is a bad sign for my phone?
It is actually a very low temperature... I never saw a phone that cool with such power inside. I get it as well without Bypass charging. All the premium phones I had was running hitter than that with a place on the back very hot.

Question Charging time

Hi,
I'm thinking about buying Pixel 5A tomorrow as it will be selling for $399.
Can someone please tell me how time it takes to fully charge the phone with the in box charger?
Thanks.

Using the 18 watt charger, it charges to 42% in 30 min, 75% in 1 hour, and full charge in 100 minutes.
The battery is significantly bigger than even the Pixel 5, which I have, so if you aren't a heavy user (gaming, 4k recording, etc) the battery should easily last you all day.
Another datapoint, mine charged from about 25% to about 92% in one hour in the fast charge mode. It switched to adaptive charging when I set the alarm for the next day, but right before that it was estimating about 20 minutes more to reach 100%.
