The wall charger that comes with the Note7 is different than Samsung's previous adaptive chargers.
Here's mine from my Note5 which is the same used with the S7-series

Here's the one from the Note7
And this is from Samsung's website. The terminology under fast charging is a bit muddled. I take it to mean that the charging tech Samsung's using in the Note7 is proprietary and if you use the charger with other USB-C or legacy Samsung devices it drops down to standard 2A charging like the previous adaptive charger.
Fast Charging
With new 25W USB-C Fast Charge technology, your battery can go from zero to up to 50% in about 30 minutes, so you can spend less time connected to an outlet. The 25W USB-C Fast Charge wall charger will charge the Galaxy Note7 and other USB-C devices without the Fast Charging feature as well, with up to a 2 Amp charging rate.
Rapid Charging
The Samsung Fast Charge Wall Charger plugs into any standard wall outlet via the included AC adapter. This Samsung charger has a standard output of 2 Amp to give your phone power at a much faster rate than your typical 1 Amp or 700mAh charger.
Flexibility
The Samsung Wall Charger also comes with a detachable USB to USB-C cable, which allows you to charge your phone from the USB port on your computer or other USB power source if you aren’t near a wall outlet. You can sync and transfer files with your Galaxy or any other smartphone using the USB-C cable.

This has been my confusing question. I assumed they would give it the more QC3 type rapid charge of some sort but wasn't sure. Glad its able to. I never use cabled charge but when I do, its because I need it stat. The more "stat" the better in that example.
This might be a thread hijack (if so, I can make a new thread), but anyone know if I'll get rapid charging if I were to plug the phone into my computer's USB 3.1 Type C port? (desktop PC)

Unless your computer can pump out 12v2.1a ( hint: it likely can't) then no.

Hard to say. I know the computer supports USB Power Delivery 2.0 through that port (using an onboard Intel USB 3.1 controller), but apparently the phone would need to support that as well (and I don't know what profiles of USB Power Delivery the controller supports).

I'm guessing neither because Samsung didn't use Qualcomm's Quick Charge feature on the S7-series. Samsung's Adaptive Fast Charging seems to be proprietary and is used on both Exynos and Snapdragon phones. Hence the terminology in the product description for the adapter that says "The 25W USB-C Fast Charge wall charger will charge the Galaxy Note7 and other USB-C devices without the Fast Charging feature as well, with up to a 2 Amp charging rate." I take that to mean that Samsung's charger and cable aren't USB-C spec compliant and won't work beyond the standard 2A output with other devices including those using USB-C. Once the phone's out I'm sure there will be lots of threads/posts discussing what Samsung's interpretation of USB-C really is.
Wait a minute...25W charging rate, even with a middling 75% transfer efficiency, should charge the battery by 50% in 20 minutes. And at 75% eff (a good charger would be in the 80s), it would make the phone pretty hot, as it would be dissipating 6W in waste heat. That's twice the power of the Snapdragon running full tilt. I'll be interested to see what th real rate is.
The phone is NOT going to charge at 12V/2.1A/25W. Samsung is likely just "future-proofing" chargers for a little while or making them compatible with larger devices that need more power. Nothing new in regards to the Note7's charging capability.

Nor did mine.
I'd like to know if anyone has tested a Samsung 25W charger with the Note 7. The fact that they included a 15W charger speaks to the contrary, but it's currently an unknown.
The Note7 is listed as a supported device if you pull up the 25watt charger on Samsung's website

Well for sure it doesn't support USB PD @ 29 W from the Macbook USB-C charger. Seems to only get 5-10 W out of it, and same from the Macbook itself.
Where did the 12V/2.1A/25.2W charger come from?
Mine came with a 5V/2A and 9V/1.67A charger.
Edit - so I did some research online. That charger was meant for the Galaxy Tab Pro S? Which functions more like a Windows 10 laptop than a tablet.
Are you sure the EP-TA300 is compatible with the Exynos Note 7?
A Chinese Website Chongdiantou has proven that both the Snapdragon 820 and the Exynos 8890 variants of Note 7 support USB Type-C Power Delivery and can handle up to 25W of power input.
I am not allowed to post outside links. You can google "实测:这几款USB PD充电器支持三星Note7快充-充电头网" and see the readings on the power monitor.

Hmmm... Dont know if I'd plug my Not 7 into that new Super fast charger as of now. It may charge it much faster but with a 50/50 chance of it exploding every charge is too risky for me.
I have these two. One is much larger then the stock Note 7 charger. Note 7 stock on the left and the fat boy on the right. Both came with USB-C cables.
Is the fat one on the right safe to use with the Note 7?

Hit that. Thanks!
does this do USB host?
Darn ... just last night I ordered the same thing from a ebay hong kong vendor for 6.50 dollars in total.
But on the side note, this comes with a switch to go from charging mode to external memory mode, right?
Yeah, this thing has a switch so you can go between data and charge only.
shaolinx - this does not do usb host. Only makes it so you can use any 5V source as a charger instead of always depending on the OEM charger.
So if I'm understanding this correctly I can plug this cable into my Droid X or Nook Charger and then into my GT without a problem? I just want to make sure I'm understanding correctly because this would make it much easier for traveling!
Maybe... Many of those are only capable of 1A at most, and might do funky things when the Asus tries to draw 2A.
Would work great with iPad chargers though.

The reVIVE II is listed as out of stock. The iPad version of it is widely available.
However, the iPad version can be made to work.
Open it up
Short the D+ and D- (middle two pins) of the 2.1A USB connector with a solder blob
Remove the resistor marked <I need to open the thing again to figure out which one - will edit tonight> - Looking downwards at the circuit board, with the 2.1A USB jack near the upper right, the resistor you need to remove is the second from the right edge of the board at the top.
After this, the Tab will charge.
As to the Chinese 2100 mA charger - I'm semi-wary after getting a bunch of "1A" Monoprice chargers that were good for 400-500 mA at most.
So, I finally received the usb charger adapter that OP mentioned here, and I can confirm that it works, though with some caveats.
You can toggle between charger mode and data mode, and both work fine. I especially liked it how with TouchWiz you don't get a blank screen even when in data mode.
The charger mode works as well, but kind of as expected, at about half the charging speed of a wall charger. So it'd take about 10 hours to go from empty to full charge, where as my wall charger could do it in 4-5 hours.
This seems best as a supplement at work, to add some extra juice while it lays idle on the desk, but not good enough as a main. Not sure if I would feel safe to travel just with this adapter.
FYI, the Tab will charge fine with lower amp chargers, it will just take longer to charge. Mine even charges fine with a 500ma charger. I have an in-line adapter that puts the Tab into charger mode same as the adapters posted for sale here.

Can anyone tell me what the charging setting does on this device? Does it just short the data wires to the female USB end?
My HTC phone will charge at 500mA from a USB port, but at 1000mA from the wall charger - I want to enable fast charging from a battery powered charger by shorting (or making low resistance) on the 2 data pins. Would this device do the job? My charging device specs state that it is capable of 1A charging, I just need to signal my phone that it is fine if it pulls more than 500mA.
This seems like it would be useful if it does what I think it does - 'data' setting would surely just put through all four connections, the same as if you unplugged this and plugged the USB connection directly into the computer, 'charger' setting hopefully puts less than 200 Ohm between the 2 data pins - can anyone confirm?

It does this, plus it also puts in a resistive voltage divider so the Tab sees approx. 1.2 volts on D+ and D-. Shorting alone is not enough for the Tab.
However, devices that expect only a short may or may not be able to override the resistive voltage divider. My Samsung Infuse expects a short, but will AC-charge from the Tab's charger and my modified iPad charger.

Your laptop may not be able to provide any more than 500mA through its USB ports, your charger probably has 1A (1000mA) output.

I'm not sure I understand why the top 2 and the 4th cables need to have a switch to change from data to charge. Doesn't a regular cable for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 allow either data/sync and charging? Does this have something to do with a feature of the Samsung P1000 that the cables are advertised for?
This is a review of Anker Bolt 3.6A (18W) Dual USB Car Charger: Anker Car Charger
From my own personal experience I use Note 2 every day as GPS to/from work. Everything is usually on (display, bluetooth), plus GPS/Google maps are up, and I take/make phone calls in a middle of all that. What does that mean? Battery is draining really fast, and even with car charger you need at least 2A output to be able to charge at faster rate than discharging with everything on. 2A charger is not hard to find, although question always come up if you can trust their actual rating. If you want to take it to the next level and charge another smart phone, you can probably find a dual charger with 2A and 1A, although reliability and current sharing during simultaneous use of ports might be in question. This new product from Anker took it to the next level where they are offering dual port output with 2.1A and 1.5A outputs and guarantee full current supply from each port at the same time. In terms of reliability, they are offering 18 months warranty which I think is a bold statement of confidence in their product.
3.6A, which is 18W, is a lot of power and to my surprise the charger was actually very small and lightweight. The dimensions of the end with dual ports is only 26 mm x 24 mm, and the whole charger is very lightweight and only 22g. This small size is very convenient for tight spaces like in your arm-rest compartment, and just in general is unobtrusive to use anywhere in the car. I know they advertise it as dual port with 2.1A for Apple (obviously iPad) and 1.5A for smart phones, but I confirmed that our Note 2 charges perfectly from Apple port. As a matter of fact that would be the best port to use for Note 2 fast charging. I took a picture in my car to demonstrate that both of the ports worked charging Note 2.
Overall it's a great little dual usb port car charger from a trusted company with a punch of 3.6A capacity split between 2.1A and 1.5A ports where both can be used simultaneously so you can do a fast charging of two devices at the same time. Plus, you can get it on Amazon for under $12 which is a bargain.
Here are a few pics:

Don't know if I ever get around it. I'm testing my ZeroLemon 9300 mAh so I mostly discharging my battery rather than charging it up. Will take a while before I get to in car charging Beside for me timing charge in the car makes no sense because I use my N2 for GPS and calls all the time, so I'm discharging it at a heavy rate as it charges up. But for sure, it goes up 15%-20% with this charger during my 1hr commute, but only because I use GPS/BT/display fully on at max brightness. This car charger is true 2.1A/1.5A, so the charging time from 2.1A shouldn't be any different than our OEM wall charger.

You should be able to use the Galaxy Charge Current app (available on the play store) to see how much current it's supplying (although this may vary depending on the USB cable you use with it, a reason why I'm purchasing the variant with a built in micro-usb cable and a usb port) although I seem to remember you stating in another thread you had one of the US variants of the Note II and the app may not be compatible with those.

Quick update on this:
Although the Galaxy Charge Current app only reports the charger giving 1.2a, over an approximately 15 minute period with the screen on, music playback, GPS lock and video recording @ 720p with DailyRoads Voyager, the charger was still able to charge my N7100 from 80% to 86%, which isn't bad considering the heavy load it was under.

Ah, thanks for the info. Seems I'm only missing out on 300mA though (one reviewer says the android port on that is rated at 1.5A and I get 1.2A from mine) so I don't think I'll go for that one. this way I know I'm going to get a decent charge no matter what usb cable I use. I've only got one that's actually capable of charging at full speed and having to take it everywhere I go would be annoying, the fixed charger on this is perfect for me.
Only posted here to help others looking for a decent car charger, as you did. Every other thread I see on the topic seems to recommend usb chargers such as yours but never recommend cables capable of utilising them to their full potential.
Anyway, keep up the great reviews
Most of them make me want to spend money I know I shouldn't on things I don't necessarily need

Absolutely! I highly recommend to use Monoprice usb 28AWG/24AWG cables with Ferrite choker and gold-plated connectors. You need thicker cables to handle 2A current. Do not use thin computer cables designed for 500mA current.
Monoprice cables are very cheap too, 3ft for $1.08: http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10303&cs_id=1030307&p_id=8640&seq=1&format=2 or 6ft for $1.40: http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10303&cs_id=1030307&p_id=8641&seq=1&format=2

I'd go with what Vectron suggested.
In the UK the only cable I've found that does is an old BlackBerry usb cable my cousin had. Swapped it for a spare cable I had that only did 1A because her phone only charges at 1A anyway.

Monoprice cables are very cheap too, 3ft for $1.08: http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10303&cs_id=1030307&p_id=8640&seq=1&format=2 or 6ft for $1.40: http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10303&cs_id=1030307&p_id=8641&seq=1&format=2

I assume their premium would also have the throughput and low resistance to work as well.

Absolutely, it's low voltage drop cable design. Plus it never failed me in the car either if it's 100deg C or down to single digits.
Just ordered one to see if it'll trigger my iBolt Dock's USB charging/audio feature. Hopefully it does...if it doesn't, well least I can charge two phones in the car at once now.
Ordered these cables from monoprice, used with my original charger and couldn't get my ZL9300 charged over 72%. Kept it on charger for over 12 hours

Can't be the cable. It's just a thick wire. If it would have been defective, you wouldn't be able to even charge it up to 72%, although you can never tell for sure. So you have used original Samsung 2A wall charger with it's original cable from the same AC wall outlet to charge up your Note 2 with Zerolemon before to 100% without any problem? I just want to baseline your working setup so you can troubleshoot from there. If it was working before in exactly the same setup and you only replaced the cable, can you go back to the original cable and see if it will charge it to 100% without a problem? If not, then it's something wrong with a cable. Make sure nothing funny is going on with your AC wall outlet plug. I discovered that in my house I have a few that not allowing me to do fast charging due to some electric wiring limitation. Also, make sure everything is connected all the way in. Depending on the case you are using, some of these micro-usb connectors are a bit too thick to go all the way in, and although it looks like you are charging - because connector is not mated all the way in, you have a bad contact and limiting charging current. I actually BET you that's exactly what is going on. I have so many usb-to-micro-usb cables around, can't keep track of it. But I remember at my work I had to slice a piece of micro-usb connector to make it thinner to work with my Zerolemon TPU, and I believe that was monoprice cable. Definitely check it out, cause that could be a problem in your case.
Everything was the same, same 2A charger, same outlet, same phone with ZL battery . Just replaced my Samy cable with 6ft one from monoprice. Will try again tomorrow with oem cable, will see how it goes

Trim micro usb connector. Gotta be it.
It seems to fit pretty tight, but I will definitely try it.

This is a review of Aukey Quick Charge 2.0 (Qualcomm certified) wall charger. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QEX83LA/ ($16.99), product page: http://www.aukey.com/product/pau28-qualcomm-quick-charge-usb-adapter
This is going to be a quick review since we are talking about a wall charger, though it's not an ordinary one but rather featuring Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 technology implemented in our Galaxy Note 4 as part of an adaptive fast charging. I see more of these wall chargers starting to pop up, but want to be sure you guys/gals don't fall for ebay scams and rather go with a trusted brand names that has been around for awhile and offer a solid warranty and tech support. The idea of Quick Charger 2.0 tech is to implement a higher voltage adaptive charging (at 9V or 12V instead of typical 5V) to accelerate charging of your smartphone battery. A number of new phones and tablets can take advantage of this adaptive fast charging already, while this product is also backward compatible with older phones to charge at 5V. Furthermore, you have to keep in mind that max current rating doesn't mean that your older phone will be drawing more current, it shouldn't sink more than it's maximum current rating. Therefore this particular charger from Aukey is universal to work with newer phones and also backward compatible with older ones, even those that can't take advantage of 2A charging.
The product itself arrived in a small environmentally safe box with just a charger and user manual. It would have been good if they would include usb to micro-usb cable, but I guess Aukey assumed that we already have plenty of those laying around. Just please keep in mind, for a higher voltage/current fast charging make sure to use a higher quality thicker usb cables. Thinner "data" usb cable are not intended for high current, and as a matter of fact can current-limit charge resulting in overheating.
Overall, this Aukey Quick Charger 2.0 performed exactly the same as Samsung Galaxy Note 4 original fast charger, which makes it a great replacement or a second set to keep in your office or when traveling. The build quality is good, feels solid in my hand, didn't overheat - no complaints here!

Thanks a lot for the review. I also bought two along with a pack of 4 usb cables from Aukey for 32 euros and its working great. I would never pay 35 euros for a single charger when all quickcharge 2.0 certified chargers work the same
Vectron, another great review. Thank You.
What glass screen protector are you currently using?
What a great review. even though there is no cable included
Priced dropped to $14.99.

Qualcomm quick charging 2, does that mean that it only works for the snapdragon version? Or would it work on the exynos version (N910C) too?
NICE!

it will "work" in the same way any charger for the exynos will, as a 5.3V 2A charger. It will not Quick charge. so you are probably looking at ~1:45-2hrs to charge vs ~1:15-1:30 for a full charge on the stock battery.
Quick charge doesn't really do anything for the extended batteries since there is a limitation (firmware maybe) of 3320 MAH after that the charger stops charging. So quick charging has to be disabled to charge the larger batteries. Quick charging worked perfectly with an anker 6400 battery that I now have. Apparently this is a zerolemon limitation
I have this charger as well. I do think it charges slightly faster that the stock charger although that could be wishful thinking on my part. There really is no way to compare them since they both charge so quickly (normally right around an hour from 20%-full) so a minute or two could be simply what the phone is doing in the background.
I also have the tenergy, anker, verizon quick chargers and with all of them the charge is very fast.
How hot does it get? I had a 2A charger that sometimes got too hot to touch... at some point it died.

Mine dosent. The phone does a little, especially during the first half of the battery
I just bought a 5-port version (with 4 Ai ports and 1 QuickCharge port) http://www.amazon.com/Qualcomm-Certified-Aukey-Charging-Included/dp/B00UV4HCL0
OP's review covered the QuickCharge port. How about the other 4 ports? Does the Ai really work?
Thanks!
Hmm... I've received mine today with one USB port, but it's strange that micro usb don't go all the way to my Note 4 F version, and don't seem to charge fast as well? When Samsung charger is plug in there is a notification "Fast charger connected" but with Aukey there is no such information. Is it possible that I've bought fake/faulty one? When plugged my Note 4 to Aukey charger I didn't see any changes of battery percentage (when plug in was 8%) after about 5min was the same with Samsung went from 8% to about 11%. Any ideas?
I have the aukey one with three USB ports. When I plug on the fast charge, the screen does say fast charge.

So in my case I've got fake one or faulty one. I'll post pictures how my charger look like.

You should read a lot of OPT reviews from different site, but as a brand which offer chargers, we will only focus on the charging analysis for OPT2. We will test the original power adapter, suggest for how to quick charge your device, and help to pick up the correct alternative chargers. Here we go:
First, Let’s check the original power adapter and Usb to Type c cable:
The charger is regular 5V/2A power adapter, the specification on the charger is:
Model: AY0520
Input: 100-240V 50-60HZ 0.3A
Output: 5V/ 2A
The cable is interesting, Oneplus redesigned the usb port again,which make you never worry which side to insert, and the other port is USB type C, this cable can be used for charging and data transfer. The total length is about 3.5ft.
So this charger don’t support higher volt,(9V or 12V) and We can confirm that, even the OPT2 use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor, however, the OnePlus Two don’t support Quick Charge 2.0 Technology, We test with our chargers which support QC2.0, It just can get 5V volt, never get higher at 9V. You should read this news from different source, It’s a pity that they drop this amazing features, but We still want to give it a test for how the charging performance.
First we test the no-load voltage of their original power adapter:
I don’t connect any device to the charger, just use the ammeter to test the volt is 5.13V. It’s in the normal range ( the normal range for the charger should be 4.75V-5.25V, any chargers’ no-load voltage exceed this range will have problems), and then we make the oneplus two battery to 0% and begin our test: Here is our test result with original oneplus two 5v/2a power adapter, and usb type c cable:
Time Baterry Current
4:40pm-4:50pm 0%-17% From 1.89A to 1.85A
4:50pm-5:10pm 17%-33% Keep at 1.85A
5:10pm-5:40pm 33%-60% Still at 1.85A
5:40pm-6:40pm 60%-98%
6:40pm-6:50pm 98%-100%
From the above tablet, we can see, in the first 10 mins, the oneplus two get very fast charging, battery charged from 0%-17% in the first 10 mins, and we check the charging current, it is from 1.89A at first, then become smaller till to 1.85A. And then in the first 30 mins, it get about 33% battery. ( compare with the quick charge technology, about 60% battery in 30 mins, the oneplus two charging is slow). But the total charging performance is not that BAD, It take about 2 hours 10 mins to get the full charge (from 0%-100%). check the current tablet, before 60% battery, it get charged always @1.85A high current, and after 60%, the current will change smaller, from 1.85A to 1.83a and 1.79a, and smaller, because that change is fast, we don’t record every current.
Now we begin to test the charging performance with our chargers:
no-load voltage for tronsmart wall charger and car charger ( all of our tronsmart chargers are conform with the international standard)
Use the Tronsmart Wall charger and Tronsmart USB Type C cable to charge the Oneplus Two:
The charging current is the same as the original power adapter. The oneplus two don’t support QC2.0, so our chargers can’t give it faster charging speed, but at least,we offer the same good quality as the original power adapter.
In our testings, we found some interesting things:
1 If you make the screen on, the charging current will directly reduce to under 1amp, and with screen off, the charging current can reach 1.9a.
With screen off:
With Screen On:
2 If you use a low quality charger which can ‘t offer enough 5V volt, the OnePlus Two charging current won’t higher than 1amp, the charging speed will be super slow.
So how to make the charging speed faster on OnePlus Two, here are our suggestions:
1 Use the original or high quality power adapter and high quality USB type c cable;
2 Don’t use your phone all the time when you charge it, with screen on, we can see the charging current is really small.
Why Choose Tronsmart chargers:
All of Tronsmart Chargers are get certified by CE, ROHS, FCC and other certifications, all of our quick charges are certified by Qualcomm(you can find our name in the Qualcomm quick charge list), and we are also proud to be the featured quick charge brand in Qualcomm Official site. So You don’t need to worry the quality of Tronsmart chargers.
More and more flagship smartphone will support quick charge 2.0 technology, Samsung, Sony ,LG, Moto, all of these brand flag ship support quick charge, Tronsmart offer the world’s most abundant quick chargers. From 1 port usb wall charger to 5 port and from 1 port usb car charger to 4 port.
All of your families can get the fastest charging speed no matter what device they are using!
And more Tronsmart design a unique USB Typc C car charger for Oneplus two users, check it here:
Traditional, You need to prepare a high quality car charger, and high quality USB type C cable to charge your Oneplus Two in your car, but with Tronsmart USB Type C car charger, Never bother of this, plug our car charger , and charge your Oneplus anytime. also we offer another port which support quick charge 2.0 for your family’s Samsung, Sony, LG, Moto etc.
So above is our charging analysis for OnePlus Two, if you have any questions, feel free to leave comment below.

What do you think of the below combination of components, will it achieve faster charging times for our oneplus 2 ?????
1.BlueRigger Rapid Charge Micro USB Cable - 6 Feet (does not support data transfer)
2.ImagineDesign USB Type-C Adapter : USB Type C To Micro USB
3.Amkette USB Wall Charger Duo for Mobiles & Tablets
I do not need your confirmation about any test results.
In theory, should the combination achieve faster charge times or not ??????
It charges from empty to full in 2 hours! why would anyone want faster than that? There's very little chance that a battery will be zeroed in normal use so charging times will be less anyway. Don't waste time and money trying to get a few seconds faster, just charge the thing overnight. Carry a power pack if you really need more than the battery can provide in a day.

Are you using the original cable and powerbrick? Some third party cables don't support higher currents, which slows down the charging.

Wow what a pro writeup... Thanks for going in-depth!
So this points out a major issue: it takes 4 times as long to charge if screen is on. That means +8 hours until full! What the ****, oneplus... Hopefully this is something we can fix with a custom kernel.

Nice and in details.. thanks
Amazingly detailed OP well done.
I have noticed that the Nexus 6p and Nexus 5x also have the same USB-C v2.0 so my question is, why do the Nexus phones charge faster? I believe the Nexus 6p used a 5v/3A charger versus the 5v/2A OnePlus2 charger.
With this in mind, would the OnePlus2 charge faster if we were to use a 5v/3A charger? Since it's using the same USB-C v2.0 standard?
Thanks

I bought this charger and it doesn't seem to want to quick charge my phone.
On your lock screen, does it say "charging" or "fast charging"?

Are you getting the charging icon in the upper right corner with the special symbol within the battery icon? A circle with the flash symbol inside.
A non-Quick Charge charging connection shows the battery icon with just the usual lightning bolt that you see on all other devices when charging.
But on the lock screen it should say fast charging and the battery percentage at the very bottom of the display.

I'm having the same issue with the following chargers:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019C23ZGW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
From the lock screen I just get "Charging" not "fast charging" or "rapid charging". I've also tried different types of USB-C cables but no dice. However, if I plug in the supplied charger that came with the V20 I get fast charging.:crying:

I'm not sure why it's happening honestly.
I get the standard lightning bolt charging symbol up top, and just "charging" on the lock screen. It isn't fast by any means either.

I would shoot Aukey an email. I'm sure they will want you to reply before you leave a bad review.

Are you using a USB C to USB C cord? I see both of those have C to C ports. Those are going to be fast charging. Just get a C to C cable and you'll be better
Fast charging USB A ports are colored orange - those have green or black which would not be fast charging ports.
If you read the description on the first one, it says the USB c port is the QC port and the USB A port is "AiPower Adaptive Charging USB-A port with dedicated 2.4A output" which is NOT QC and is not recognized by the V20 as a fast charger

It's the same thing for the second charge, the Type C port is your QC port
See specs listed

USB-A Output: DC 5V/2.4A, Works with most of USB devices, like iPhone,iPad,Tablet, GPS or other standard usb devices
USB-C Output: (Type-C QC3.0 Port): 3.6-6.5V/3A, 6.5-9V/2A, and 9-12V/1.5A
Dimensions:2.76 x 1.02 x 2.01 inches (70.0 x 26.0 x 51.0 mm)

I just about to order one from aukey for qc3 may be I should get confirmation first, I am using a qc2 charger from aukey and it is fast charging fine

Which one are you ordering? They have different kinds(depending on # of ports). If the one you're getting has an orange USB A plug - that is QC 3.0 (Aukey likes to color code their stuff)
This is one I just bought and use at work - see how it has an orange port vs the green port of the one listed above by gchild00http://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/accessories/aukey-3-0-car-charger-t3494667/post69527312
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018RR30TK
The ones listed above, the QC are on the USB C port and not the USB A port

Hi Thanks for the suggestion.
Unfortunately, yes I am using a USB-C to USB-C cable and just getting a regular charge I emailed Aukey and they are going through some troubleshooting steps with me. One suggestion was for me to try it on another phone but I don't have another phone with USB-C to USB-C quick charging capabilities. I've also tried different cables to no avail.
Funny thing though is that I'm seeing the same issue with a Tronsmart Quick Charge 3.0. I emailed Tronsmart and they told me that Quick Charge 3.0 is not supported on the LG V20 but is on the LG G5. I don't think that's accurate but checking the Qualcomm website and the list of supported devices that was updated on 09/26 it looks like the V20 is not listed.
However, it seems that this may not be an accurate list and it seems that others have been able to get the QC 3 functionality....perhaps I was sent two faulty chargers from two different manufacturers????

Thanks so much. I must have missed that. I sent the link to Tronsmart to prove to them that the v20 support QC 3.0.

Just wanted to provide an update concerning at least the Tronsmart QC 3.0 charger. So after sending multiple pictures to Tronsmart of their charger providing a regular charge and the stock LG charger providing a fast charge they determined that because the LG V20 is a newer device that they have another product that can provide QC 3.0 using USB-A. My original Tronsmart model is W2P2TE but I was told that I can contact the seller and have them replace it with the W2PTU model.
https://www.amazon.com/Charger-Tron...01ER4J564/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_pdt_img_top?ie=UTF8
I'm a bit disappointed because I purchased several USB-C to USB-C cables to get QC 3.0 but now they are saying that their newer revision can do it with USB-A..that doesn't sound right to me. So I'll just send the product back to the seller and get a refund.
Also, on a side note for those that do have a QC 3.0 set up plugged into the LG V20 using USB-C to USB-C cables, does the V20 say fast charging (just like with QC 2.0) or does it say rapid charging?

That sounds completely stupid. If their charger is truly QC 3.0 then it shouldn't matter how new/old a device is. If the device supports 3.0 then their charger should work. Leads me to think that there is something wrong with their QC 3.0 management and they are not Qualcomm Certified (and in fact no where do they list that they have Qualcomm certification)
Even when you look at the description of that "new" charger it says QC 2.0 lol
Product Description
Tronsmart Quick Charge 3.0 USB wall travel charger.
1 Quick Charge port compatible with Quick Charge 2.0 and 1 Type-C port. 33W total
Also it looks like it is not Benson Leung approved (in fact he went on to say it violated some USB type C regulations)

I have 3 different QC 3.0 chargers and all are giving me the Max output (that my USB multimeter can read)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/help/charging-speed-t3495600/page2
All 3 of those are giving me 9.2v @ 1.67A for 15w of power and would fluctuate as a QC 3.0 charger is supposed to. That 15w is the limit of my USB multimeter so I'm waiting on a new one that can read higher to see if they can hit 18w of power (but seeing as how the chargers instantly pegged 15w I'm inclined to believe they'll do 18w).

So far only those 3 - Aukey wall charger and car charger and an AIcase wall charger.
Haven't uses an Anker product as of yet and with the revelation that Google may kill Qualcomm QC in future releases of Android I'm gonna hold off on buying anymore

Yes I am thinking for the same sounds like qc3 is more a transition product
I bought this one here to keep in my wife's SUV (we both have V20s). It has dual QC 3.0 ports. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01B2BMIMS/
I also bought a 5-pack of Aukey braided USB-C to USB 3.0 cables https://www.amazon.com/AUKEY-USB-C-Cable-Braided-3-3ft/dp/B01B634WNK/, and they work great with it. Shows the fast charging icon on both ports of the car charger. Unfortunately, I don't have a tester to check the power output.
