OK, so I bought this car charger, and it has 2 USB ports on it, A and B. A charges at 1.0a, and 5w. B port charges at 0.5a, and 2.5w. My phone has some charging issues where it uses too much power. My phone only works in port B, and lately I have to reboot my phone to get that to work. I was wondering if I could get port A to work with my phone? I know it works because my dad has the Note 2 and it works in port A. Thanks in advance.

First off this belongs in GNex accessories. Second there's no reason your phone isn't charging at 1A if everything is working correctly. Sounds like some kind of grounding issue.

Sorry if it didn't sound right in the post, I meant that my nexus isn't even picking up port A. And yeah I think my nexus has some problems, I was using my dads note 2 charger which puts out 2 A, and my phone was discharging. I don't have insurance, so I don't think I can get it fixed.

Chargers do not ”put out” amperage. The amperage drawn is determined by the device itself. Even though the charger is rated at 2 amps, the phone will only draw about 1 amp.

Charing phone, checking amps.

Just looking around and I found my s4 charger to have an output of 2A and my GNex has a 0.7A
Is there a way to see the amp going in to the phone? I bought a random eBay chargers as well and I want to test the power going in so I know which ones to keep and which to give away to people as spares.

Battery Monitor Widget Pro from Google Play. Works perfectly. I caution buying "random" chargers from ebay.. seeing more and more people with exploding batteries and charger ports being fried. Just use caution.

The one by 3c so the first one. And I get ones that match the output of the home charger or a couple of ahma (milliamps) less. Then it requires you to use the stock cable

[Review] Parkman E2 pluggable power bank for under 10$

Hey,
some days ago Parkman sent me one of their E2 powerbanks for review so here it is now.
Let me first clarify that I am neither paid by them nor related to them in any other way.
Let's start :highfive:
Content:
The powerbank ships in a small box with all information printed onto it. Also it comes with a micro USB cable to charge it. There's no wall charger included but charging it over USB is totally sufficient. Despite the cable and the powerbank there are some warranty cards and instructions in the box as well.
Powerbank itself
The big advantage of this powerbank is that it is really small and has a built in output plug

It has 2200 mAH and I was able to charge my Blackview Alife P1 Pro smartphone (3000 mAH battery) to 64%. There are four LEDs on the powerbank which indicate how much juice is left - very handy! You can see them in the top of the image.
The only problem I had was that I could not really charge it in my pocket because the phone's USB slot is not centered but on the top left side. You can also see this in the image above. This makes the powerbank stand out a bit. On another phone I where the slot is centered it was completely fine though (see: http://imgur.com/qAWl96v.jpg) So definitely check the location of your USB slot before buying this powerbank
Conclusion:
Would I recommend this powerbank? The answer is "it depends". On the one hand it is really really handy and very portable. On the other hand 2200 mAH are nothing special nowadays. If you need to extend your phone's battery for one day go for it! If you want to go on a road trip over several days the capacity is definitely too low. I for myself use it every now and then when I am in town and my phone's battery is about to die.

Portable Aukey Battery not working with Axon 7 anymore

Hello all,
I bought an external portable Aukey battery that was working fine until I don't know what happened...
This is the model I'm talking about:

When I plug it to my phone, it starts to charge, and then stops. I have 3 identical devices, and they all do the same thing. I have changed the USB cable, same story.
If I plug my phone to another QC3 charger, portable or electrical, it works. But not with this device.
It used to work some weeks ago, and then I upgraded the firmware from B03 to B08. I haven't used them since.
Anyone noticed something like that? No problem with external chargers?
Thanx for your thoughts

Funny.
I've ordered that portable charger but i had to send it back because it wasn't working just like yours.
The charger works for 5 seconds and them it stops working.
Tested 3 different cables - got the same result.
My phone has B08 firmware.
Using the Aukey charger with another phone that doesn't have quick charge, it works OK.
I have another older portable charger (doesn't have quick charge) and it works fine with the Axon 7.
I've ordered another portable battery with quick charge 3 from another manufacturer.
I'll post my results here when i receive it.
Thanks.

Maybe this quick charge issue will be solved in Nougat firmware...

I'm sorry for the late response but only today i received a new power bank, after 2 different orders.
I've bought a BlitzWolf BW-P4 and this power bank works great!
Fast charging works as advertised and has a small profile with 5200mAh.
You can find this power bank here:

I'm very pleased with this one.

Question Moto G60 Charging

The Moto G60 supports QC4.0+, so should it not support a 27W Motorola charger available in the G7 Plus for faster charging speeds(other than the in-box 20W charger)?

It most definitely should! Do check and let me know if you already have a QC 4+ charger... My Moto g60 is arriving tomorrow.

Yes I have 32w charger. I would like to know if the charging will be faster for Moto g60 than using 20w charger

I tried oneplus 65w charger and the phone doesn't recognize it as turbopower or as quick charge of any kind, I also tried QC 3 of Huawei but the phone didn't still recognise it.

Best way to see at how many watts its charging is by buying a usb c cable with a built in wattmeter scree. One of my friend has one on its way and if I get my hands on it I will try to see if it charges over 20W.

Hello
Charge speed wont exceed 16W tested with a xiaomi 33W charger, also tested with original charger with same result.
