[One (M7) Accessories] Magpir:
i am using an ap called battery monitor widget and have logs for the past day . its showing different values when charging with the stock HTC charger.

when its like 0% - 80% it charges at a rate of 900 mah

Not sure if the phone or battery circuit does this , it seems the charging on the htc charger is on/off...

sometimes +600 mah, stops , sometimes _ +300 mah stops , sometimes - xxx mah ...

i think its trickle charging they say the phone trickle charges after 80%.

i tried a note 1 charger which has the same rating as the HTC charger. same behaviour

then i switched to a 700 ma samsung charger . so far it shows a constant current of 200 mah -300 mah...there is no on/off behaviour . Note i need to verify this behaviour when the phone falls below 80 .....will report on this later

so some of u who may see fast charging times with 2A are only seeing for the first 0%- 80%
[One (M7) Accessories] Magpir:
I seem to recall reading something on the web a long time ago that said that charging at less than 1C could actually result in a faster charge to 80-90% charge.

The rationale being that if you charge at a higher rate, it forces the voltage up to the maximum faster and then the charger has to ramp down the current faster.

If you charge at say 0.7C then it takes longer for the voltage to hit the maximum and then, counterintuitively, the average current for the duration of the charge is actually higher.

I am tested this theory now... but it seems like it could be true.

using samsung charger rated @ 7C and using the battery monitor ap, the samsung charger is keeping th ephone charged at a constant 700 mah but the HTC charger is fluctuating from 500+ mah to 600 mah

not sure why the samsung charger seems to charge the HTC one faster than the HTC charger..

cant explain why though
[One (M7) Accessories] nullkill:
Samsung chargers are crossed wired so you pulling power from the data line as well as the power line if I remember right. It's the only charger that will fast charge a Samsung device so that could be it.
[One (M7) Accessories] Magpir:
After using the Samsung charger battery life seems to have improved ..

So the Samsung charger is better??
[One (M7) Accessories] bob13bob:
Battery life naturally improves a little in the beginning as you break the device in. It's folly to think you know better than the HTC engineers who designed this charger,. Stay with stock charger unless you need an emergency fast charge.

With Samsung, the battery equation is completely different. Since the battery is user replaceable, it's ok to fast charge even though it decreases the longevity of the battery.

The battery is VERY hard to replace the battery in the OnE
[One (M7) Accessories] nullkill:
It's not a better charger but a different kind of charger. For Samsung devices they will charge very fast like a hour. I'm not 100% on the data power line I do remember there was a mod it was either a resistor or crossing the power and data lines on a cable so it would work with any charger and Samsung phones would fast charge.

Nexus 4 cable off of the play store... seems to fit a lot more snug in the micro usb slot as well.
[One (M7) Accessories] bob2300nx:
Just curious whats your rational? I thought you could hook the phone up to 10A if you want it will only take what it wants and since the battery is regulated it will only be what they specified for it to use.

[One (M7) Accessories] Galactus:
Thanks, but I need something thats around 1.8m. Scared to try out the cheap £2 cables on amazon.co.uk. Especially if they can't output the 1a needed.

Edit: Just bought a 1.8m amazon basics usb cable. Hopefully it will work fine with the OEM charger

Hi guys....

I've used a physical meter to measure current draw to two HTC ONE devices...Sprint and T-Mobile. In all situations, this phone isn't pulling more than roughly 600ma +/-. For more info...

I'm using the iPad charger from time to time and will have to say that it doesn't charge any faster than with the stock charger.
[One (M7) Accessories] Semseddin:
I hate to resurrect dead threads but i want to put my experience. When M7 is charged with stock 1A HTC charger, it charges slow. When it is charged with M8's 1.5A(quickcharge 1.0) charger, it is charged faster. Simple as that. Now, i am trying Motorola Turbo Charger (quickcharge 2.0) will report my findings if it is charging any faster than 1.5A m8 stock charger.
[One (M7) Accessories] datafoo:
The IC will not allow more than 1a charging into the phone unless you're running a custom kernel. Even then heat issues can prematurely wear out your battery as L-Ion is very sensitive to heat.

Quickcharge and intellicharge are not available by default for the M7 so anything over 1a is purely placebo effect from the users imagination.

There are custom kernels which enable quickcharge like behavior but intellicharge requires a specific Qualcomm charger as well as a kernel which supports it (no custom kernels currently support intellicharge)
[One (M7) Accessories] im_high_tech:
So I download that app, and no matter what I do with my settings, I cannot get my phone to charger faster than about 550mAh. I am currently running at 384MHz CPU, 200MHz GPU, and Force Charge (On/Off), and 50mV undervolt. With the phone just laying there (screen on 65% battery), as I stare it currently saying +529mA (+23.00% /h).

I just tried playing a game, with those same exact settings and it stated charging at +217mah.

[One (M7) Accessories] mpc007:
This thread is driving me absolutely crazy. Group one claims the M7 can't charge at more than 1A, because its configured in the kernel. Group two claims significan faster charger with use of 1.5A or 2.0A chargers (from different brands). I don't know what to believe. Is it so hard to organize a good test with rational approach and ban one of the two camps forever to the shame corner?

I own a M7 myself, and I really want it to charge faster, but it don't know what to think of all the different opinions here. I certainly don't want to buy the 10 dollar costing M8 adapter or the 30 dollar costing M8 Rapid Charger adapter if my phone still hangs at 1A.

EDIT: Also, I'm wondering what role the cable plays. Is charging with a micro usb 3 cable faster than with a usb 2 cable? Some people seem to suggest so, but wouldn't they still be limited by what the ports can offer (500 MAh for USB 2.0)??
[One (M7) Accessories] mpc007:
That isn't very strange, since your phone probably draws around 400 MAh current. That makes it a total of 1A.
[One (M7) Accessories] bdizzle1686:
Officialpl htc brand rapid charger is guaranteed by htc to charge m7 up to 45% faster than stock & I can vouch for that. After buying 1 off Amazon n seeing the difference I immediately ordered 2 more
[One (M7) Accessories] mpc007:
You sure you aren't confused with the M8? Because the Rapid Charger 2.0 was originally invented for that model ;)

Hi

Could anyone send a link to get the HTC fast charger from the uk
[One (M7) Accessories] lawyerone:
I don't know wether if it's just my standard HTC's charger beeing a defect, or if charging with higher current charger may charge my phone charger.

I've a HTC M7's stock charger, in 1 A. And it charge quite slow, like expect 3 hour of charge.

Using a 2A and 2.1A charger (from samsung's note line and apple's ipad respectively) charge it faster, and it take only around 2 hour to charge.

Definitely it's not a placebo effect as mentioned before, although i never timed the 2A and 2.1A and compare each of them, but definitely charging with a 2A charger charge faster than the 1A charger provided by HTC.

Please note, that I don't have another 1A or 1.5A charger so i cant really do a comparison with another 1A charger here.

Btw, i dont know wether if it's just my phone, but I believe that my M7 tend to get hot while charging (turned on). It happen with 0.7A (or 0.8 from Blackberry) charger and the HTC 1A charger. And if it get hot, it charge even slower. Anyone experiencing the same problem?
[One (M7) Accessories] bdizzle1686:
It's not the m8's 2a rapid. It's m7 1.5a rapid charger designed to take advantage of the original Qualcomm quick charge, which the m7 does support, NOT QC 2.0, which the m7 does not.
[One (M7) Accessories] schriss:
There is an option to enable/disable fast charging in many custom ROMs/Kernels.

There is HTC original m7 charger which is 1.5A, it is on Amazon its TC-P900, 1.5A.

Cable does make a difference because if you use cheap/thin cable, current will be limited. I bought a usb current/voltage meter just to try and test my different usb cables accumulated over years and throw away those that caused fall back to low current.

Recently I bought a charger that has VoltIQ ports as well as 1 Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 port, but I didn't test it yet. Maybe one of the ports will give me 1.5A just like on original charger, but I don't care. I prefer battery to stay cool rather than boil.
[One (M7) Accessories] reggiexp:
never use the touchpad charger :)

why? because it 5.3V and i dont think thats healty for a phone who is 5V

the ampere 2.4A doesnt mather the phone wont take more then it can.
[One (M7) Accessories] madyotto:
Really

OK you all seem to miss the vital thing

Here is the explanation

The best way I have ever heard it put is like this

Where current is water

Imagine a water barrel that is being filled up at a rate of 1 liter an hour

The barrel has a over flow pipe aka battery if this pipe is only wide enough for half a litre an hour and you turn the tap filling the barrel to 10 litre an hour how much is the over flow receiving still half a litre

So here is the big if and but

If you are using a 2.1a 5.1v ipad charger

Whilst gaming you have the CPU GPU and battery making heat and thus degrading Battery life and performance

If you turn the m7 off or have all apps closed and phone idle then this is far better than gaming with the stock m7 charger

As for comments about voltage of other chargers are irrelevant as the circuit in the phone limits voltage with a simple I/0 circuit if voltage is either under or over pre set parameters it will do nothing as it won't allow any flow of current at all

Unless lots bigger

How is the current limited

Self explanatory as the charger states what it is built to supply

Conclusion is simple amps are limited by the charger plug or USB port

Voltage is not limited but safe gaurded so if your phone registers a charge with a 5.3v plug then it is fine as long as you use it sensibly

Apps are highly unreliable as they are a close prediction at best

And don't correctly include what is used by the phone

Also some current will be being stored all the time in capacitors

Fact the m7 charges quicker with higher ampage application measuring ampage will not be accurate

The only accurate way is to time it from empty turned off

And blind people who say HTC know best do not understand the workings of any multinational corporation

By holding the fast charge back widens the gap between the m7 and m8 meaning more people will go and buy the m8 fast charger or even better the m8

Standard charger VS 2A

Ok guys after reading the thread, I've realized that using a 2amp charger will charge my HTC one (m7) faster but at the same time reduce battery life.

I'm using HTC ONE (M7) since 2 yrs now and my problem is that using the stock 1A charger, my phone charges very very very slowly....like really really really slow. Even the screen displays..."full charge in 20 hours" or so. I thought maybe the charger is faulty and bought a new stock charger but the problem stays.

If I charge at 20% battery...in six hours it goes to max 50 or 60% on Extreme Power Saving mode. However using a 2A charger lessens the charging time to around 3.5 hours. I have tried resetting the charging logic but to no avail. Is it a poor battery? After fully charged, the battery lasts for almost 18 to 20 hrs though. Please help!
[One (M7) Accessories] sp5it:
It is kinda bs for me.

I own two M7's. Also a few chargers, from 1A up to 4A

Max current M7 consumes during charge is 1A no matter which charger I use. It is defined by phone charging circuit not the charger.

The key is good cable. Stock usb cable is garbage.

@1A load voltage drops from 5V to 4.53V and max current flow is 0.8A - that is a reason of slow charge.

On "good" USB cable I have 4.95V and 1A constant.

As I said - the right apk signature is the key - you can buy any font in google play, install it and cancel the payment. The ordered font is working. If you decompile font apk, compile it back and sign using your key - it won't valid for the firmware. It seems we need to patch the font manager.
