Regarding Fast Charging - Honor 8 Pro Questions & Answers

hi everyone. i am new to honor community since i was part of miui beta team for quite some years.
this new ecosystem of emui is quite different. i have been having some issues with fast charging.
i use official charger, bootloader locked, not rooted and on stock emui.
many times it happens that fast charger isnt fast really. for the same amount of charging it sometimes charge quickly ad sometimes it takes way too much time. can anyone tell me workaround to have stable but quick charging all the time?

Same here. Looking for a solution as well. I have heard the Oreo update ****ed it up.

Fast Charge?

Can you guys tell me is there any option to fast charge this amazing tablet.Getting sick of waing each time 3 hours or like 5/6 hours while gaming.Had this option enabled by kernel feature on my old s3 but cant seems to find this in tablet kernels as a feature as if noone being bothered by this.Sooo any solution?
Buying new charger and increase the current by 2A or more will be much helpfull.

Fast Charging? Any kernel recommendations?

Hey folks,
Quite a simple one really. Got a G3 today and I'm quite impressed with it. I got it as a spare phone to delve into other areas of Android rather than sticking to Samsung and I'm actually considering making this my daily driver however one things holding me back and its the sheer amount of time the thing takes to charge.
With my S4 and S5 there are kernels that enabled a degree of faster Charging through upping the amps that he phone pulled. I'm struggling to find a solution to this with this phone.
Is it possible at all? I've ran into the CTT(?) and installed it, but it's still hella slow.. battery section quoting 10+ hours till full despite Ampere reporting a 2400mAh pull.
The phones running Fulmics ROM at the moment.
Cheers for any help folks.

I´m on stock MIUI global. I think this is 9.5.6 or something around this (Oreo 8.1).
I only unlocked bootloader and rooted my device with magisk. But this doesn´t matter.

It matters at slow down the charging speed at certain % so end result is same as stock charger it charger quickly till about 70% then it slow down compare the charging speed with stock charger 0 To 100 its the same

Does megisk break the ota??
I wanted to say, that rooting the device doenst´t matter...
I have fast chargers everywhere, at home, in my< work, in the car... So i use them. No need to change them...
With redmi note 5 (pro) i don´t have to charge my phone every day, so it is no problem for me, how long the charging-time would be. With my old phone, i had to charge the phone every day, sometimes 2 times a day (to get enough power for the night, to be able to use the clock in the morning for waking me up...)
________
And i don´t know if this breaks the ota. I think yes. But who cares? I have TWRP installed.

You do understand that the phone designed to slowed down charging process after certain % right ? That's just the way it is.
Fast charger normally will charged quickly up to 60-80% then slowing down.

Games drain battery faster than charger can charge with new rom/kernel update

I recently upgrade my stock Nexus 5X to AICP (Custom Rom based on LOS) and everything that came with that (unlocking, TWRP, updating kernel, rooting with Magisk) to "celebrate" the end of security updates for the Nexus 5X.
But I've noticed that when I listen to an audiobook and play a game WHILE IT IS PLUGGED IN, the battery will slowly be DRAINING. For some reason the charging can't keep up with that load anymore, when in the past it'd slowly charge under that same combination of apps.
Could it be slower charging? Or the system using the battery less efficiently? How can I tell? Could it be quick charging no longer works under the new ROM? I think it might be that this new ROM is just more draining, but I can't really tell or know what to look for. Have others experienced this and can maybe point me to something that works better like the stock OS used to?

Redmi Note 8 Pro Drains so fast after updating to MIUI Global 12.5.2 Stable

Just to warn everyone to NOT update your phone to MIUI Global 12.5.2 Stable .. after I updated my phone ran so hot I couldn't even hold it in my hands
Had to power the phone off, put it under a high speed desktop fan and quickly copy all my photos off the device and then Factory Reset the phone.
However even after a Factory Reset it drains the battery so much faster then before
Also I use my phone as the satNav for my car using Google Maps and now even with a 5 volt, 2 Amp car charger all it can do is maintain whatever charge level it has - so if it's at 80% charge and using google Map it will sit at 80% whilst being charged. If there is no car charger plugged in it will drain really fast.
I've disabled as many things as possible from running in the background and use anti-bloatware software to remove as much of the junk that comes preinstalled on MIUI as possible but it still drains fast.
This update is a total nightmare and should not have ever been released. And I've not even noticed a single improvement to the phone
Also I posted this exact post on the Xiaomi Reddit group and instantly this post was disallowed, so there might be many more people trying to warn others but having their posts blocked.

My phone didn't boil like yours but it was draining battery more than usual.
A quick solution for you is to downgrade to MIUI 12.0.8.0 (latest Global 12.0.x ROM last I've checked). It's better to clean flash to avoid issues so make backups.
