I find that the official Samsung Galaxy Note 2 charger seems to charge VERY fast - but even if I use any other 2A rated chargers, it does not charge nearly as fast as the official charger.
Is this by design, or any others notice this?
That Samsung charger rocks. I used it to charge a friends s3 in like 20 minutes. Haha

u gota use the one that came in the box to charge fast that **** charge any phone fast
When you plug in the aftermarket 2A charger does the battery screen show Charging (AC) or Charging (USB)?
Apple compliant 2A chargers might appear to the phone as a USB port. The phone might only ask for 500mA vs 2000mA as 500mA is the USB standard.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
I've been used to getting just under 1000mA with the included charger but when at my sisters, I plugged into her (generic) tablet charger and was amazed to see the charging rate at 1500mA.
After a little research I see that the Nexus 5 is safe to and capable of 1.5mA but the stock charger is rated at only 1.2mA.
I've tried a number of 3rd party 2000mA AC adapters but these all show as USB charging, so capped at 500mA.
Anyone got anything tried and tested that will give me this. Also looking for similar for my car. I have one that will charge at 1mA but would like more if possible.
Try a different cable with the 2A adapter

I've tried several, including the stock cable.

I've had a nexus 5x before and own a pixel table. Both come with USB C port to charge. So i bought a itian qc3.0 charger at that time. (http://www.gearbest.com/chargers-cables/pp_389793.html)
Now i changed to the lg g6, but it refused to do the 'fast charging ' when i use that chargers qc3.0 port and even says 'slow charging' when connecting to the usb c output.
Is it the combination that's just flakey or did they put something specific in the original charger that comes with the lg g6?
I'm bit lost on the topic of chargers currently, anyone care to enlighten me on what should could would work?
Lg g6 is picky I think

I'm using the charger from my Nexus 6 and my G6 says that it's quick charging. Only QC 2.0 on that one though.

Works fine with my wife's charger from her Galaxy Note 4 as well. ? (Pretty sure that's a QC 2.0 charger as well.)
Does LG not provide a qc 3.0 charger with their own phone ??
Mine came with a MCS-H06UR charger.
Rated @ 9.0V 1.8A / 5.0V 1.8A
After a quick Google search I've had no luck ascertaining if this is QC 2.0 or QC 3.0.
From what I can tell, my phone charges as fast if not faster using the 5V/3A charger that came with my 6P.
From what I've read online, the LG G6 also supports USB-PD.

Off topic a bit. Thoughts on overnight wireless charging. I have a great charging cradle that I want to use but don't want phone to crack at night from hours of heat. Sony z2 and z4v had issues with that

Shouldn't really get hot once it's fully charged?
The charger that comes with it is a quick charge 3.0 charger and can completely charge your phone from zero in less than 2 hours easily. You have to use the cord that came with it though, or at least one that is compatible. If you look at the icons, you will see a different one than the usual charging icon. Pulling down the menu shows something about fast-charging when its active.
My experience comes from the Sprint version.

i use one from Tylt each night since im always on-call. havent had a problem once.
None of my QC 3.0 charger fast chagrge my G6. The QC 2.0 chargers do.
I've bought a Choetech wall usb charger, QuickCharge 3.0 with its usb type-c cable, and when I plug it on LG G6, it says that there's fast charging.
https://amzn.com/B019Q5WT6W
I do not believe the LG stock charger is qc qc 3.0 compatible because its fixed mat output at 9v is 1.8a
qc 3.0 defines the max amps at each voltage level from 5v to 9v to 12v
I ended up buying anker qc 3.0 chargers for my car and for ac wall outlet. also bought their nice braided usb c cable. every combination yields a fast charger notification in the drop down and the ampere app confirms this. also watching the real time output is impressive from all these chargers.
the benefit to using a certified qc 3.0 charger is that the phone will tell it exactly what amps to deliver based on charge & temp.
further, the G6 has a heat pipe to help cool the entire phone including the battery, to help prevent a galaxy note scenario.
wireless charging is slow Qi spec and is NOT fast like samsung. however, slow charging over wireless is great for overnight.
I use anker's qi charging puck and it works great except I have to remove my case. same with the samsung fast charger puck. my wife doesn't have to remove the case on her S7 to do regular or fast charging. LG's design is obviously inferior for the Qi to pickup and activate the coil.
Today Amazon delivered also this Anker dual usb car charger (QuickCharge 3.0):
http://amzn.com/B01K9MQ8WW
and when LG G6 is connected it shows that is in fast charging mode.
Those who bought QC 3.0 charger and those who trying different cables with LG G6 charger, Try Cable from Oneplus 3, I get an improved charging of 10-20 minutes less compared to stock LG cable
The issue might be the cable you're using. I've had no trouble fast charging using an old ASUS QC 2.0 charger, or a cheap car QC 3.0 charger. Even when using microUSB cables with USB-C adapter tips, but I'm using decent cables (mostly Monoprice and Anker).
I've confirmed that the charger that came with my G6 is QC3.0 (model MCS-H06UR, UK 3-pin). Using a USB power meter, the voltage will increase from 5V to 9V in small steps. If I use a QC 2.0 charger (stock charger from Note4/S7edge), it will jump from 5V to 9V immediately.

How much time does it take to charge fully? Did you record time ?
Seriously considering this phone, but there are a few aspects that are putting me off, one of those being the proprietary charge protocol.
With so many devices in the house, I currently have a 5 port Anker desk charger, and really don't want to be restricted to the Huawei charger to get anything better than "slow charging".
Has anyone tested charging using a third party multi-port desk charger and found fast charge 2A charge working? Has anyone tried USB PD via a USB-C port?
Also, please share experience of third party multi-port chargers that will NOT supply 2A charging so that we can rule out models.

I'm currently using choetech 3 ports wall charger. Maximum it could provide is 1.8A. Not quite as fast but fully charged within 2 hours. Good enough for me.

Does the charger provide the full 1.8A charge? You can check using this app - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.ampere

Yes, that's how I know it's charging at 1.8A. But I don't really check the charge when it reaches something like 70-80%.
The title says all. Mention if you are using other chargers too like qc 4 or wireless charger please.

i use a 750mh standard charger and it's like 1 hour for 80%
never used the stock charger because it has fast charging and it ruin the battery in the long run
