Latest OTA draining battery while charging? - Verizon HTC One (M7)

I've noticed ever since the latest update, two HTC ones that I have are charging very slow.
I.e. if using GPS/navigation my car charger cannot keep the battery charged or when just using the phone itself. (Not while driving if course)
When on the previous OTA update it was fine. Yes they charge in AC mode. And the charger I have is rated for output at 2 amps just like my home charger which is fine.
Anyone else having this issue?

thats because your max output on the car is 500mA and that is not enought to run the phone and charge at the same time. Even if the charger is rated at 2amps the phone wont know and default to USB charging speeds.
To test this go to the battery and see if it says AC or USB:
USB max is 500mA
AC max is 2A
even thought the charger says it can do more, the phone doesnt know that unless the data pins for transfer of data are shorted indicating the phone is allowed to do AC charging.
EDIT:
More info on how to hack it to force AC charging:

That's the thing it does charge in A/C mode, not USB.
Which is odd, it only started after the last update in May, and its happening across two identical HTC Ones. Both are s-off boot loader unlocked running same version/software etc...
Basically it charges in the A/C current but is dying during charging

If you are s-off and unlocked what rom are you running? also do you have a custom kernel installed?

its been one of those weeks. i was looking at the OP.

Happening to two phones? Bad charger, go get a new one. Or test it if you are unsure, hook up a meter and check it out. But two phones losing charge while in AC mode on the same car charger screams "bad charger" to me.
Edit - Also, assuming your household charger works fine - and that is AC mode charging also, it pretty much narrows the culprit down to that charger being bad. If it was a rom issue it would be duplicating the issue on any charger it saw as AC.

If I recall you will get a "Slow Charging" notification if you're charging with less than 500mA. If you're seeing that notification then you're more than likely going to struggle to use GPS while charging at that rate.(It would take nearly 5 hours to fully charge that phone with it off using such a low amount of current)

Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
sounds like your phone thinks its charging from a usb and not ac when its charging from the mains open settings > power
under battery status it will say either not charging, charging (usb) or charging (AC).
if its saying usb then there is something wrong with the cable thats stopping it from showing s an AC adapter.

Have you tried a different adapter?
The cables could be fine, but your adapter/plug is defected.
Also, do as treebill said. Try checking in which mode (USB/AC/Not charging) your phone is recognizing as being charged.

I have exactly the same problem, I'm using official usb cable and adapter. I had tried other cables and adapters but same thing. My One X is not unlocked or rooted, and I'm with the last official rom 2.17.401.2 but it was happened and with previous rom 1.27.401.11. Even with switch off phone charging is very slow I try to restore my phone but nothing at all. Sometimes it's charge like it should but most of the time it's slow. Any suggestions or I have to go straight to repair center?

Ok.
Li ion batteries take 3-4 hours to charge. If its taking longer, there is huge current draw from the phone. Or, as you say, "no".
help me...
Are you REALLY sure your chargers aren't messed up?
I f**ed up the charger given with my One X(details below) and after that, my charger would only give me usb power instead of ac. I've been using this charger bundled with my Samsung P2 mp3 player that I got 4 years back.
We had gone on a trip where the room's fan rotation knob was missing, so the only thing I saw fit to change fan speed was fitting that tiny pin from the fan regulator in my AC Adapters usb port, which messed it up. Retarded I know, story of my life... -_-
Hey there, I faced the same problem. Having a blackberry Bold3, I tried recharging my OneX with the charger that came with it. BB charger charges my OneX WAY FASTER than the HTC charger that came with the phone. (1hour max for full charge) And battery holds an entire day too.
no one??
If you haven't rooted nor unlocked, and your phone was charging perfectly before, then I don't think it's a software issue.
It's either your charger or cable. If you have tried a different charger/cable that works well with other phones, then I guess you need to have your phone looked at.
Good luck

how long does it take to charge the nexus 7 FHD?

mine seems to charge to slow, or maybe cuz im not using the stock cable and im using my usb ports on computer
but if i have stock charger on wall outlet, how long is the charge top up take from 10% to 100%, thanks
yea mine is charging slow through the computer but I dont know if its because of the nexus 4 usb cable im using.

Obviously charging through a 500mAh USB 2.0 port would be slower then through a 1.35A wall charger.
can I use 2A charger?
Yes you can use a 2amp charger I was using my S4's and it charged fast
Sent from my totally stock Nexus 7 FHD
Interesting, I've only charged mine twice since getting it last sunday, and I've not paid any attention as to how long it's actually taking, one was through a proper charger, and finally today plugged into my computer
The New N7 ships with a 1.3 amp charger, and it's definitely slower to charge than the old N7 (which shipped with a 2.1 amp supply).
But I have yet to determine if putting a higher current supply on the new N7 will result in more current being delivered than the stock charger.

It takes about 3 hours to charge from 0% to 100% with the charger it came with. Using a 2 amp charger doesn't decrease the time, as the device will charge at a maximum of about 1100-1200 mAh.

Android Tuner battery history.
Can anyone tell me what the power draw should be using the stock charger and cable?
Battery monitor is telling me that it is +237ma, it is taking 12 hours to charge. I have sent back to Asus via PC world (what possessed me to buy from there I dont know) and they have told me there is nothing wrong with the device. I have flashed the stock image and still getting notoriously slow charge times.

With the stock charger and cable, the battery should be charging with close to 1200mA; the charger draws 7.4W from the outlet (at 230V).
There is current limiting based on the voltage the tablet sees, a USB cable with thin wires can drastically limit the charge current.

Slow Charging

When I plug in my power adapter to charge the tablet more often now I get the Slow Charging notification that says battery is charging slowly due to low electric current of TA/USB connection. Any one else seeing this? I am using the stock charger supplied with the tablet. I have tried this on several AC outlets in several different locations. It does not seen to affect the ability to charge the tablet it just charges it a little slower.

Thanks for the reply. I am starting to think my power adapter is not putting out the correct current it should be. I will try using a different 2A charger and see how it goes.

You might also try a different cord!
You may try to install "battery monitor widget", it will tell you charging in USB mode or AC mode.
I also find the stock LG charger slow charging, the widget shows I'm only charging at around 1100mA max. While the charger itself label said Output 1.8A max. I can't reach this level yet.
If I charge with a stock nexus 7 charger (which is 2A rated), it'll get worse...just reach around 800mA max.
I'm still not sure what's wrong with the charger or the tablet itself...
I can say that the cable that came with the gpad does charge faster than a thinner cable I had. Both were tested plugged into the stock LG charger.
Sent from my LG-V500 using XDA Premium HD app
When I pulled my g pad out of the box and saw the stock charger was below 2A I put it back in the box. I charge my tablet with the 2A charger that my note 2 uses.
I've seen this problem intermittently with the stock LG charger and today it seems to have become a permanent fault. Swapping to my Note 3 charger things are back to normal once more. Swapping back and forth repeatedly the LG charger triggers the warning and the Note charger is fine. It looks like the LG charger is a bit rubbish. I'll press for a warranty replacement.
I have noticed mine recharges really slowly as well. Using the stock charger, and the battery app previously mentioned, it gives me about 1.1A from the stock charger. Using my Vita charger rated at 1.5A I get about 1.4 into the G Pad. It seems their charger just stinks.
I sent them a support query to see if they will replace it without hassle, if they want me to send it back I'll just buy something else instead.
Edit: Heard back from LG, they want me to send the whole thing back to them or return it to Newegg. Not sure why they won't just ship me a replacement charger, it would be much cheaper for them in the long run.

Further investigation revealed the original cable to be at fault, as it would not make a data connection with either of my laptops. Another cable from my old Galaxy Note worked perfectly. Even so there is still a question mark about the charger as well. Today I spoke to an LG support rep who promised to send a new charger and cable. They should arrive within five working days. I had read of mixed opinions on LG's support, but so far it all seems encouraging.

No longer "Super Fast Charging"

My phone used to show "super fast charging" on the always on display when connected to the 45w charger. Now it just shows "fast charging". Time estimate is now equal between the 25w and 45w chargers too.
Tested with two cables - the one included with the 45w charger and also a USB 3.1 E-Marker cable that worked with super fast charging before.

Ampere is useless on my note 10+. I needed to use an inline usb c power meter.
The issue is that the power meter always showed just under 25w of power from both chargers, even when the phone showed "super fast charging" on the 45w one. It explains why there wasn't a huge difference in the first place.

I found a solution here and I tested it myself.
when i connect it with simple fast charger the circle is white but it is blue when connecting it with the original fast charger that came with the phone.
So this means, that "super fast charging" notice is removed by Samsung with the latest updates

This is not true on mine. The blue circle simply means it is connected to an OEM charger. Mine still charges in QC 2.0 mode at a maximum of 17W. It should be charging in PD 3.0 mode. You need a USB tester that can identify charging mode. Can you verify the charging voltage and wattage?

I dont have smth like that. Anyway both chargers I use are OEM. One for note10+ and the other for Note8.
Havent checked precisely the charging time but i took for granted the solution read on other forums
Also the same after last update
So this explains why my At&t Note 10 + does not super fast charge with the original samsung 45w dual car charger. The charger has 2 ports one is 15w that will fast charge the other is a usb-c port that is 45w.
When I use this port the phone connects it will say charging super fast 2.0 it will only charge 2 mins then it will stop.
Hopefully in the next update they put the super fast charging setting in the phone like the note 20 ultra has
Mu US Unlocked SM-975U1 with all updates, including Nov security updates and OneUI 2.5 still says Super Fast Charging when charged via the Samsung charger that came with it.

With Warp Charge there are several factors that come in to play. The charger itself, the USB Type-C Cable and your device.
Has Warp Charge ever worked on your device?
When the cable is connected do you see "Warp Charge" displayed on the screen?
Did the Ampere App ever show the maximum 5.9 amps or does it always show a maximum of 3.5 amps?
Are you using the original Warp Charge wall outlet adapter and original USB Type-C Cable?
If Warp Charge was working before, how long has it been since you last saw it work?
Have you modified the device at all?

Yes it was all working before I have earlier got 5.2 to 5.5 amps but from past couple of months it's been fixed at 3.5 amps now, and yes I have been using original warp charger provided and no haven't unlocked or rooted my device, could this be a problem with the device or any other fix for this?

Bought mine 2019-12 . few days ago (2020-03-30) warp charge stopped working, it still charged, but extremely slow like 40 percent an hour. When it was off i tried plugging in charger, but it started looping, it didn't boot to an animated picture with charging battery, but it still could boot into OS when power button was pressed. Did a factory reset, didn't help. Connecting to pc usb still recognizes it. Had a feeling it was a hardware error. Maybe fast charging module went bad.
Sent it for a warranty repair, got an answer that it will take more time because it was sent for an higher level service. I guess it's quite bad, it could be a motherboard fault.
I read on oneplus forums that quite a few people has a same issue.
Connect it to a pc, see if it is recognized. Mine stopped working & it was a bad USB Car port. It would still slow charge but no warp charge & no windows pc would recognize it connected
Hi! I have the same issue, only difference is that mine is sometimes charging at warp speed and most of the time at 3300 mAh "dash speed". Did you manage to see what the issue was?
