Did anyone find a way to get the pixel stand features on any wireless charger?

Cant do. Its not simple "Nfc connection" with pixel stand. From what I know ( might be wrong ) pixel stand does connect to titan m sending encrypted data with wirless power. Doubt you can fake it
You can use power mods which are on xda to have faster battery charging but you cant fake pixel stand
Or use a Samsung s10/s10+[emoji1] when I tried to charge my pixel 3 xl using my wife's s10+ it believed it to be a Google stand...[emoji16]

weird. That must mean that the pixel stand mode is dependent on the wireless charger unlike what the first response was suggesting. I doubt Samsung would have integrated proprietary technology for their phones

Hi all I just got my Pixel XL but didn't come with the charger. I just wanted to ask if the Galaxy S7 edge fast charger is compatible with the Pixel? I do get the rapid charge message when charging but wanted to know if the charging speed is the same as the original Pixel charger?
Thanks in advanced..

I am currently using s7 edge charger. I have no problems with fast charging. I think phones kernel tell's charger to draw specific amount of current. So i think you should be able to use it safely. To answer your question, it should be very similar to pixel charger.
I use whatever charger I have in the house but only a couple will rapid charge. My Asus chromebook's usb-c charger will rapid charge it. That is super nice since I travel a lot I only need the one charger.

I agree with the guys here. I have used my Note 7s fast charger as well as the charger for my kids switch without issue.

Thank you.. Yet for some reason I still feel like it's not charging as fast as it's advertised with the stock charger. ? maybe I'm comparing with the OnePlus 3T, that was the fastest I seen.

I don't think the charger speed competes with my old Note 5 or 7 with the stock charger.
I've also noticed my USB 3 ports on my computer seem to be as fast or a little faster than the stock charger.
Does anyone know if I can use my old Nexus 5x charger? I was reading on a few threads that the OG pixels did not work with the Nexus chargers and wanted to see if that held true with the pixel 2.
Thanks!

Don't know why a PD charger wouldn't work on the Pixel or Pixel 2. They may be lower wattage but might not charge as fast.

FWIW I've got a dozen miscellaneous USB-C chargers kicking around and they've all worked fine on the Pixel 2. These include what Google was selling initially with the Nexus 6P and the separate 3A chargers which were available via the Google Store at the time.
I haven't found any charger or cord around here that won't work. So far nothing has blown up. That's always nice.
Yes

Yes, the Nexus 5x charger works with my Pixel 2 and does register as rapidly charging.
Yes, I used it last night to charge my phone
I have 2 Nexus 5x chargers and neither seem to work. In both cases they show 'charging', but after several hours the battery is at the same level.
My 5X charger works great.

I have a Vinsic USB Type-C cable and wall charger that worked fine on the Nexes 5x. I tried it on the Pixel 2 and it can't seem to charge. The lighting bolt in the battery icon that usually indicates charging just flashes but it doesn't seem to be charging the Pixel 2 at all.
Does anyone with Vinsic USB Type-C cable and wall charger have this issue with the Pixel 2?
Are certain brands of Type-C cables and chargers that were compatible with Nexus 5x no longer compatible with Pixel 2?
i actually haven't taken my P2XL charger out of the box, because I only charge my P2XL on my N5X chargers.
They always register as rapid charging, fyi.
Hi can somebody point me towards a travel charge that will allow me to both fast charge the pixel and a laptop (Thinkpad). I honestly don't know what to look for. Why or why is Google doing PD. Thanks.
Which ThinkPad do you have? If it charges USB-C then it's PowerDelivery. That charger would work for the Pixel just fine.

Thanks it is T470 and it dork with one of the Anker charges. Thanks.
Is there a way to override slow wireless charging and get the rapid speeds like with the pixel stand?
Right now the only way is to get a Pixel Stand. They are partnering with other companies (such as Belkin) to make a certified "made for Google" line of chargers that will support the fast charging. Unclear if it will enable the other Pixel Stand features like the sunrise alarm, photos, etc.
https://www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F7U050-MG/
Hopefully other companies make some cheaper options that can use the fast charging.
Would be great if there was a patch to trick the Pixel 3 phone into thinking it was attached to a pixel stand.

Right exactly my thoughts, nobody can figure this out with root? We have a custom kernel maybe it can edit in power from charging idk

Yes, I would look around in the kernel threads to test the possibility. My N7 is running EX Kernel and it (using EXKM) still has a "USB Fastcharge" toggle. I do not see this option in the N6P, P2XL or P3XL though. The advent of USB-C and PD may have changed things on the newer phones. My guess is that it is not available or flar2 would have included it. That being said, I do have the Google Stand and I can tell you it is NOT "all that". I would have been just as happy with a slow charging "dumb" wireless charger. I would never have purchased it if it was not half price on BF. On previous phones, I almost exclusively used the wireless charging overnight so speed was never an issue.

I'll trade you one of my cheaper wireless chargers then for the pixel stand!
And I still agree there has to be a way toggle that or edit it in for different wireless chargers

Last I read about the P3XL and wireless charging is related to the standard the charger has. There was something about a security check before fast charge was enabled, everyone else charges at the lower rate. Right now there is only one charger I have read about besides the P Stand that works.

Hi,
Just replaced my pixel XL with a 3a XL and tried to use my Qi adapter to add wireless charging but it doesn't work? I even bought a new one that says compatible and supports fast charging and replaced the pad with a new 30w....but phone doesn't seem to charge this way?

The 3a series doesn't support wireless charging.
