How long does it take to fully charge your OG Pro? - LG Optimus G Pro

Hey guys, I just want to check.
I take about 3 hours to charge my OG Pro from 0% to 100%.
What about you guys?

Mine takes about an hour... Are you using the charger that came with your G Pro... I used my wife's galaxy s3 charger one time by mistake and it took forever to charge.

Yes, but it seems to charge very long like 2.5 minutes every percent
Strangely my battery voltage displays 3mv or 4mv all the time, I haven't found any luck looking for the solution to it

I have the zero lemon battery for mine and I'm using it along with the AOSP custom kernel to get the most out of the battery

It charges fairly quickly without the zero lemon battery though

Make sure your charger is good. Mine will discharge, if I'm using it, even on the best of chargers. Turn off the screen and it seems to charge pretty normally.

Using an ipad charger, mine goes from 30% to 100% in an hour or slightly less, I let it trickle charge for another 30 minutes after the LED goes green.

Paper weight or possible fix?

Before getting my SGS3 I used flashed a CM9 nightly and all was fine. After switching over phones the day of the release I put my phone back in its box in my desk. I missed it and wanted to play around, check out new development, and actually my first SGS3 was stolen off the bar so would have loved it as a temp instead of a BB. But anyways I picked it up and plugged it in... nothing won't charge no matter what, I left the battery out for about an hour plugged back in, left it plugged in over night nothing worked. The phone worked perfectly before I put it in my desk and it was untouched...does this sound done for or is there something I can try. Appreciate the help in advance.

Have you pulled the battery yet? Leave it out for 30 secs.

Yes, I've done 30 seconds, 30 minutes, 24 hours. Still wont power on, it sucks I dont have an extra battery to test that aspect.

Your battery may be fully discharged. Then mobile phones are incapable of charging them. This happened to me with old phones but not recently.
What you have to do is to remove the battery and apply highcharge to it.
Take a powersource which is capable of giving about 6-7 volts dc and connect two wires from it to +ve and -ve terminals of your battery. Hold it like that for about minute or two. Not more. Then try to charge the battery without turning on the phone. If don't work try increasing voltage upto 12v

It was the charging port, not quite sure how it broke over night without it being touched. Luckily my brothers girlfriend has the dinc2 so I trialed my battery in her phone and it started charging. Any fixes for the port is that a customer service issue?

It is pretty easy to replace the charging port. I did it last week, it only took about 10 minutes and you can get the charging port for $7 on ebay. There are guides and videos on how to do it.
There's a thread on replacing the USB port, its like an 8 dollar part

Mophie juice pack

Got a mophie juice pack a couple of weeks ago. Has a 2300mha battery and is supposed to double my battery life, however will not fully recharge my phone from say about 30 percent. It will get it up to about 80 to 90 or so. This is with the phone on and low to moderate use. Curious what others are experiencing and if this is about right or if I need me a new one.

its not supposed to FULLY recharge your phone. if your phone is turned off while it charges, then yeah you'll get more juice out of it. I've been using the mophie case on my gs3 and havent had any problems.. when i'm at work at my battery is at 30% or so and i flip on my mophie case, it will get me up to about 80 or 90% with time.. which is enough to get me through work till i get home i'll also add that i use my phone at work alot lol
I use the 1500mah Powerskin and it goes about 30 to 50-60, so you are about right. Remember that you aren't just using the extra mah - it has to be converted up to 5v (with losses) to feed your charge port, then your phone's charging circuitry has additional losses. Probably 20-30% of the extra juice is wasted, no way to avoid that.

Mine is about the same. I have a bad habit in using the phone while it's charging by the juice pack. At least I can an make it through a full work day with heavy use. Shorter when tethering.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
It's because when the juice pack is plugged in, the phone is in usb charge mode, not a/c mode. If you are rooted, and your rom supports usb fast charge, you should be good to go.

I enabled fast charge and made a big difference as far as charge speed, but got pretty warm. Not sure its too good for the phone or the case so probably going to just use it normally.

One X charging time

Hello guys,
just a short question.
My One X (3/4 year old) needs about 6 hours to charge, from empty to full. Is that normal?
I'm not sure, but I think in the first months, it only took about 2 hours...
Thanks

Definitely not normal, it takes some 2,5 hour to full charge. Maybe your charger is messed.
Odp: One X charging time
6h is surely not normal, it should be around 3h with ac charger
HOXed
Ok.... now it takes.... forever.
I started charging with wallcharger at 4% battery left. Now, an hour later it' says 11%.

The phone will still pull only 1A...
You can even use a 10A charger if you want, it won't make it any quicker.

Charging takes forever! Normal?

Ok so I never really paid attention to how long it takes my phone to charge 100%..
So last night I put my phone on the charger at midnight, woke up at 350am and it was at 55%....
It tok my phone about 5 1/2 hours to fully charge. Normal??
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
Not normal... My son used to keep putting the charger tip in his mouth and it messed up the pins inside my charging cable.... Tried to clean it with a tooth brush and it worked for a few weeks but started undercharging again. Maybe the pins inside yours are dirty? Bought a new charging cable and it works fine now for me...

Yes I am.
Not sure if it makes any difference but, I have it plugged into an extension cord.
Would plugging it into the wall directly be it?

I have the same issue on jedi x 11 rom saber kernel I believe. When I'm on stock It takes 2 to 3 hours to charge fully. I use the oem charger that came with it as well. I would hate to stop using this rom for that reason.

Mine does the same thing. But I use a desktop dock. If I use just the oem charger and cord it charges fast though.
Adding on a usb extension or using a different usb cord slows it down though.

The computer didn't make a difference, but I took charger out of surge protector and plug directly into wall and it's charging like my stock that charges fine with the surge protector. Can't figure out why stock charges fine with surge protector and jedi x11 rom doesn't. Either way I found my solution.

Its because the dock charger is maybe 800ma output. The wall charger is 2amp charger. The wall charger is best for quick charge. It takes about 1-2 hours with perseus kernel.

Omg I have the same problem.
I tried charging my Note 2 last night before going to bed. Phone @ 60%. Woke up 7-8 hours later and it was @ 97%. I used an extension USB 3.0 cable (10-15ft) after the AC adapter then hooked up a BlackBerry USB to MicroUSB.
I thought something was wrong w/ my Rom since I plugged it into the wall to charge, and if I do anything w/ screen on, it would end up draining even though plugged in.
I plugged the phone to my comp, which uses the stock Note 2 USB cable, and it charges fairly fast.
My problem is I used to have a Galaxy S3 and Nexus S before that, and it never had this slow charging issue with the same AC adapter + extension + usb-microusb setup.
Im having the same problem .... I would put my phone to charge around 9pm with 20-30 percent and I would wake up at 6am and my phone would be at 80-90 percent charging ...

I installed some monitoring widgets that monitor input charge. I think something is seriously wrong with roms. The input rate is 1600-1800. However it is still taking forever to charge via stock oem wall adapter + cable. I have to reboot to have it charge normally. Not sure what's causing it. Will charge fine, but then after a day or so of use, it ends up charging super slow regardless of where I charge.
Just had my phone charge from 87%-93% in 30-40 minutes.
My Galaxy S3 charged almost twice as fast.

I use Battery Monitor Widget Pro. Also Elixir E2 widgets for tiles that show the charge rates.
Mine charges from like 10% to 100% in like three hours. Running JediM13.
Try cleaning your battery contacts and the contacts for the phone. Might help. Maybe your outlet output is lower? If you can, try cleaning the microUSB port. I usually try to clean my contacts regularly.
I don't know much- just throwing out random ideas
those with slow charge, should try getting a new usb cord. even if your phone is charging doesn't necessarily mean your micro usb cable is 100% working. everytime i start experiencing slow charge i buy a new one and charge time goes back to normal. i've gone through 4 oem samsung micro usb cables since my s2 days.

(Q) Zerolemon not charging fully.

Hey guys, just got my lemon 2 days ago and its going great. I got about a 2 days on the first charge. I plugged it in at 2% like the instructions say and it started charging. I woke up this morning and it said it is fully charged and I took it off and as soon as I did, it went to 59% and has been draining really fast. Within 30 min its down to 52. What's going on?

Why don't to try another battery and check whether the problem is in your phone or the in the battery. Because I'm also using a ZL and everything is okay from my side.
