Always on display is only available on most phones with oled screens. It's a good thing that the honor view 20 doesn't have it as it would drain the battery Hella fast.

The charger must be faulty or the phone itself. Me too. My Honor 8 takes more or less 1 hour to be full.

That's painfully slow. Now I'm almost sure the phone is the real problem.

Hope that too..
The funny thing is if my phone is turned off it charges quicker.. it could be also a service wich consumes alot of battery but i dont see anything unusual in the battery history..
I also use Greenify so the services should get turned of.

So there are two possible things now. One is the phone is faulty, two is you installed an app that caused this problem.

or the battery capacity is just that big that it takes over an hour .. no problems here!
Any news OP?

I have noticed same on My honor8.. but only If i leave FB or Snapchat running backround. Also old FB update (cant remember when) has issue when i "cleaned" from taskmanager FB was still running and used lots of battery. So im quessing that your problem can be caused by app or two..
I hope Huawei will make their own quick charge implementation like VOOC from Oppo.
Sent from my Honor 8 using XDA Labs
Well I dont know if its just a placebo, but I think since im rooted today it charges up quicker... dont know if thats even possilble but I got Greenify now running with root permissions.

Quick charge not working anymore.

I've been having this phone for a few months now and at the beginning the quick charge was working just fine but then, suddenly, I'm stopped working. On the screen it said only "In charge". In the meantime I lost the original charger so I bought a new one that supports quick charge but there haven't been any results. Is there an option or something to activate it again? Do you have any idea what might be the problem?

Check the specifications of the new charger. It should be able to support 5V/2A and 9V/2A. Also check your cable if it supports that.

Yes that's probable. Maybe, go to the mall, and ask to test your phone with original Huawei quick charger. If it's still not quick charging, then the problem is your phone.

If any service centre nearby, please visit to avail the warranty options. It may be hardware issue as well. Is it happening at the same time you started using the new charger or few days +- ?

I don't remember it. The fact is that when I tried to use my powerbank that supports quick charge, even if it didn't show up on the lock screen it was indeed charging really fast. Much faster then with the normal charger

Honor 8 Pro Camera not working

Post the "apps not upgrading" update i.e. DUK-L09C675B150, the camera on my handset is not opening. I just get a black screen. Anyone else has faced this issue? I checked in Hi Care and they asked me to reset my device, did that still the issue persists.
Any one has any suggestion.

Either go for a refund if it's in the refund period or give the phone to them again.
Tell them that no amount of resets gave solved the problem.

What is your HONEST Charging speed? (10%-100%)

Just vote in the poll please.
ONLY VOTE FOR DATA USING THE SUPPLIED CHARGER AND CABLE .
Your charging data must be for phone in ON state with WIFI on.
Which is I assume most normal people would charge their devices.

Thanks I decided to not use the fingerprint reader because it's not as fast as I'd hoped it was gonna be.
Would you say it actually fixed anything? I'm in agreement with holding out on updating... unless there's a perk I'd find useful enough.

Is protecting your device from known vulnerabilities, that are probably posted on every amateur hacking site out there, a useful enough perk for you?
