Need new charger?

My evo has stopped charging. It won't charge with the chargers it came with..and i've tried my sisters charger and my own and nothing. Do i need a new charger? or is it the phone itself that needs to be replaced? It's running MIUI 11.5 rom and bcblend BFS. Oh btw i was looking at this charger...has anyone ever used it?

if you have tried two different chargers you need a new phone. That is if they were both wall/ac chargers and not of the usb variety which could be a different problem

[Q] What charger are you using?

Hey everyone.
I noticed a lot of people have been having battery problems.
Not poor battery life, but the issue some people are having where they can only use their phone while its plugged in.
My question is what charger, more specifically, what charging cable is everyone using?
I've noticed that if I used one of my Samsung charging cables to charge this phone, it takes FOREVER! Where the Sony cable that came with the phone charges it literally 3-4 times faster.
The charging cube or block doesn't seem to matter as I am using a blackberry cube with both cables.
I have a feeling that using the wrong cable could be causing people issues with their battery. Like its not providing the battery the correct voltage or something, causing a malfunction.
I don't really have any proof or specific knowledge to base this on, its just a hunch.
So what'd your charging setup like?
Mine = Official ZL cable in a blackberry power cube.

yeah it charges much faster in sony charges than a samsung charger for me.acually your device wont accept power more than its requirement but unless the chargers and cables are faulty (defective)it may cause battery issues

Have that problem, and I'm not using the original charger; Using Motorola with motorola / nokia cable; Still...today you have 1 thousand different options to charge usb units, and as long as they're not defective, they should charge ANY certified product with no problem at all.
What I mean is I don't have any other cellphone who had trouble with that on past; if charger is 0,25A will charge slower, if it's 1,5A will do faster.

Official ZL cable and charger and no battery problems so far.

Note 2 charger, sometimes HTC sensation charger, powerbank and laptop with BlackBerry Bold 9700 cable sometimes htc cable...so far so good...

I had a zl charger which used to take forever to charge the phone. I both an 1amp original charger that also took about 4 to 5 hrs to fully charge so I bought Samsung note 3 charger with 1.5amp rating and it charges in e hrs approx. Yes cable matters it has to be high duty one

Original Sony charger here. And yes the use of multiple charger with different voltage will reduce the battery life and cause some malfunction. Search in Google there is a lot of confirmed info of this issue

There are lots of different quality USB cables. I had a rubbish one that actually discharged instead of charging it was that bad.
Get different cables (try and borrow your friends' cables) and run the app Galaxy Charging Current from the play store. This will give a charge current trading for your cable/psu combination. If your psu is a genuine 2.0 Samsung charger then a good USB cable should charge at 1900mA. Rubbish ones can be anywhere from 100mA worse than charging over USB from a computer) upwards.

Doubts about recharging

Hi.
I got the following doubts about recharging:
1) What if I charge the phone with a standard 5V/1A recharger? It's all ok? No problems at all?
2) If the answer to the previous answer was yes, can I use the original OP3 cable with the 5V/1A charger?
3) What if I use the original cable + original charger with a Custom ROM (since they don't support dash recharging)?
Thanks.

1. No problems at all using a regular 5V/1A charger.
2. Yes, you can use the dash charger cable, again with no problems at all.
3. I haven't gone down the custom root yet but you'll only get the standard rate of charging. There's a thread about this somewhere.

Non-Mix2 or Xiaomi chargers incompatible with Mix2?

I accidentally hooked up my P10 charger to my Mix2 and woke up this morning with the phone on 44%. Once I realized what happened I tried it again and noticed it came on showing fast charging but within 10 seconds stopped charging altogether. Meanwhile the Mix2 charger had no problems with my P10.
So where do you think the problem lies? Is the Huawei charger incompatible with the Mix2 or the Mix2 incompatible with other chargers? Anyone tried different chargers with their Mix2?

I have used multiple usb-c chargers and all work fine for me. Every QC3.0 charger should work fine. I use a blitzwolf QC3.0 charger as my primary charger.

The charger from my HTC One X+ wouldn't charge my Mix 2, but my ancient Blackberry charger does. Not sure where the incompatibility is.

That's my point. Does is have to be QC3.0? Every other phone I've owned worked with all chargers.

So it's the phone that's incompatible. I wonder why they'd do something so silly like this? Or is it a software bug?

So what 3rd party chargers would you recommend

I tried using a QC4.0 charger from my Z17 and it works without issues, but for some reason an old Xiaomi phone charger of mine didn't want to work. Probably as long as the charger supports QC, then it would be fine

My yoga 910 ultrabook charger works fine with mix 2, also aukey and powerbank without Quick Charge, only huawei charger wont work for me.

I use a Tronsmart WC2F and it charges my Mix 2 just fine.

I'm charging mine with the quick charger that came with my htc 10 with no issues. Just as fast as the xiaomi charger.
Being a Snapdragon platform most Qualcomm Quickcharge certified chargers should work.

I think you've solved the problem. The P10 is Kirin and likely not compatible with the Snapdragon 835.

I've been using my pixel xl charger because I recently picked up a mi mix 2 used and the QC 3.0 charger that was sent with it didn't work. This has been about two weeks and all seems fine. I watch it though and make sure the second it's 100% I take it off. I haven't left a phone on charge overnight since before the fast charge technology came out. I always take em off soon as they're at 100. Anyone think that's bad? I mean I have Google searched quite a bit and didn't see anyone using the of Pixel wall chargers for mi mix 2 but it was that or a Dash charger from my ole OnePlus and I'm quite sure Dash will toast anything that's not a OnePlus device.
