As far as I've read the g4 is 2.0 charging capable. I tried using my Samsung fast adaptive charger which from what I've scene is qualcom 2.0 and I get the charger not compatible error message and charging stops. This particular charger has been used on different 2.0 charging devices as I've scene in a charger comparitve test so why does it not work on my g4? There's no reason it shouldn't work. Output is 9.v=1.87A or 5.0v=2.0 A. Can't find any info on the web. Same charger works on my moto x 2014 which a 2.0 compatible. Even if the charger couldn't sustain the higher output it should still charge at the lower rate

Is it Samsung specific chargers? Don't want to waste the money on a new charger and have the same problem especially since I have a draw full of non fast chargers.

I bought a supposedly-QC 2.0-compatible Samsung charger off eBay. My G4 refused to charge from it at all ("not compatible"). But it would charge my S3 alright. A coworker just bought an S6, it charged that just fine, and I believe the phone indicated it was quick-charging. I did not get the part # off the charger.
I was kind of surprised, as I'm pretty sure I'd seen people mention charging their G4 with Samsung fast chargers.

IIRC the stock wall charger is rated at 1.8Ah. But, what is the phone's actual draw? Does it ever get up there near 1.8mAh?
I'm just trying to figure out if a car charger with "only 1000mA" will be sufficient. I'm guessing that the OEM wall charger is rated well above whatever the phone might ask for, but as to how much, I don't know.
I'm actually looking at these two right now as they both seem to give a pretty high output for both Android and Apple devices.

My experience with other phones is that the phone draws exactly what the stock charger gives it. I'd imagine it's the same with this one. 3140mah is a lot of battery to charge.

I'd agree. I charged it the first couple days using the OGP wall charger and USB cable from my Nexus 4. It took all night. Switched the cable with the one in the box, and it charges in like an hour!
I have a 2.1a car charger, and the OGPro charges in exactly the same amount of time as the stock wall charger.
Oddly, it charges slower from my 2a Note II charger.

Im looking at all of the chargers from Anker on Amazon. It seems they have the best positive reviews of anything I've seen. Although the 3.6 watt (white unit with either 2 usb ports or one port and a micro usb cable) unit is newer than the 3.1 (black heavy duty), the black unit can give the full 3.1 watts to either port or split it amongst the two ports. And according to Anker, either port will work for Apple or android. They suggested i get the newer (white) unit, but i want to have the full 3.1 watts available to a single port for future h higher powered devices.
I'll have to check those out. I've been looking at this one, which has good reviews on it.

My concern with that one is that it gives a total of 2.1A. So if you charge your OGP using one usb port, there's only 0.3A left for the other port. The disclaimer at the end of the description says that if you are charging an iPad to not use the second port. I'm guessing that warning would also apply too us with the high draw OGP. It also states that the blue light gets even brighter in the dark. You might need to cover the led if it's too bright,but that's a personal taste thing,and it might not actually be that intrusive. Lastly, do you have enough room in your vehicle to rest both your phone, and the head of the charging device? I have a dual outlet 12v supplier in my car, but i bought one that has no cord. The two outlets are rigidly mounted right at the end of the cigarette lighter plug.
I bought a Griffin Powerjolt single USB at Walmart. It only charges at full speed using the OGPro's stock cable. Any other cable is slower, and the cable from my old S2 gives me a "Slow Charging" notification.
Anyway, this charger is just a stop-gap. I'm going to be hard wiring two USB plugs into my truck's 12v system (with some 5v regulators and an Add-a-Circuit).
I was looking at the 3.6A charger, here's the link on amazon.
As I expected, one port is for Apple and one for Android. This is very irritating because I need to charge my OGP while my fiance charges her OG at the same time on trips.
Can our OGP charge at full speed on the Apple port?
Edit: I just read that the kernal in Android 4.2 fixes this issue so we can charge in any USB charger, including apple chargers. I'm guessing LG devices still on 4.1 won't benefit from this update.
Shouldn't going to Settings > PC Connection > USB Connection Type and then setting it to "Charge only" force the device to see any cable as a charge only cable thus making it charge faster?

As per Anker, the Apple port will charge Android at full speed. I have not verified this myself as I have not gotten mine yet, but that's what I'm told, and expect. I'm waiting for their wall charger to come back in stock as the shipping will be free if l order both.
I ordered the black 3.6v version. I'll get it Monday or Tuesday since I have Prime.
Are there any apps that detect how much juice the battery is getting?

That's odd. Based on Motorola's saying and calculation your charger voltage must be limited to 1.5a and it must be charging your battery in less than 2 hour. Which I'm experiencing now.

Hello,
I´m buying the Moto G and Moto E (one for me, one for GF), and we would like to buy this bundle for wall and car charger:
http://www.amazon.com/Bundle-Monster-Charger-Samsung-Products/dp/B00F045IN0
output says 5V=3.1A... is it too much?
Intensity (A) can never be too high. The phone will take what it needs
Voltage (V) on the contrary needs to be 5V. More than 5V can kill your phone.
But the Moto G wont load with more than 1,5 A (with a 3A charger you wont load faster as a 2A charger). I bought a Ravpower charger (4 Port, 2x 2,1 A, 2x 1A) and im really happy with it. It feels very nice and dont get hot/warm

Concur!
If your charger is getting hot, it means the phone is trying to take more current than the charger is capable of delivering. I.e., your phone requires 1 amp and the charger is only capable of producing .5 amps (500 ma), then it will get hot.
You can have a 20 amp charger @ 5 volts and the phone will only take what it needs to charge. A tablet charger is usually 2 amps and that should work just fine. Any charger that will deliver 5 vdc @ 1 amp or higher will work. I would try and find an OEM to some manufacture such as Samsung, LG, Apple, even Motorola (any charger that they provide for their other phones) are better than third party. But don't forget that it is possible that the third party charger you purchase could very well be the manufacture for the OEM chargers.
I do not have my XT1045 yet but when I get it I will use my Samsung Tablet charger. I am using that charger to charge my iPhone 3GS.
So in summary, 5vdc @ 1 amp or greater should work.
I use my old standart HTC chager model: TC E250 (5V, 1A) which I got with HTC One V.
It works great with the MotoG. Charges in less than a couple of hours, doesn't overheat.
Just thought I should share this here.

You can.
I have seen a lot of people having charging issues. Even i had a lot. Issues listed below
1. Discharging issue if i use the phone while charging
2. Slow charging (taking over 4-5 hours ti charge my phone)
I took my phone to service centre with a possible issue with my phone. Note i was using original 1.2mA OEM charger.
I enquired if LG G2 is also having 1.2mA OUTPUT charger but it carried 1.8mA charger.
I got my replaced for testing on my own and voila its charging completely within an hour! Trust me! Even while using my phone during charging (mild browsing) doesn't show discharging but yes a bit slow charging.
Even though i am not sure if 1.8mA charger might affect battery in any way (service centre guy told me its fine to charge my LG G PRO with 1.8 one), i request people to throw some light on possible issues i might face.
Otherwise, all you people can use lg g2 oem charger to have a wonderful charge time

There will be no problems if you use a higher capacity charger with GPro as long as the charger is of good quality. I have been using an iPad 1st gen charger with mine since day one and haven't had an issue yet.
One more thing, I've noticed GPro can be a bit picky about the USB cable used for charging so use the original cable if you received one with your phone or a quality alternative.

You told it yourself, Motorola Turbo Charger...it's not Quick Charge technology, it's different.
But i think its output is same as of quick charger (12v/2A)
Maybe they have the same output, but it does not recognize the qualcomm technology.

I bought one of these as ive got a really nice wireless charger stand and it was only a tenner to give it a try. Absolutely useless. Tried it on 2 fast wireless chargers - a 27W and a 15W one with different plugs (the Supervooc, a huawei supercharger and a Fast charge 2.0) and different cables and the most i could get to show on a charge meter app was 134mah - but the charge was all over the place and mostly was well below 100 and as soon as the phone thinks about something then into the negetive.. I'm not sure that even all night on that charge would get from 0-100%
If anyone else has tried a different one that works well (I know that it wont charge very quick, i'd just like to be confident that it would fully charge overnight) then please post links!!
Damn! I'm in the same boat, I've got a nice Samsung convertible wireless charger which is now acting as a fancy bedside phone stand due to the Oppo not having wireless charging.
I heard reviews from others on Amazon that said the same as you said, it's slow (which is fine), but also that even after a full night of charging, the phone wasn't full in the morning! [emoji17]

I was having another play and tried another wireless charging pad - a 15W one with a Quickcharge 2 plug both 'Ventev' brand (the one i was trying to get to work was a Huawei Suoercharge wireless charging stand) and it consistently charged at 350mAh. This would be slow but probably enough to get a charge overnight - so I'd say it may be worth a try as it seems it all depends on the charger you use.
