[Q] 2100 mA charger? - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just found an apple's USB charger. It says the output current is 2100 mA. Is it okay if I use in my Thunderbolt? The only things I know that all the current Thunderbolt chargers are up to 1000 mA.
Thank you very much

The TB won't use more than 1 A. The USB connectors are only spec'd for 1.8A. It may work, it may not, but it won't charge any better than the one which was included with your TB.

Actually, I'd like to have my TB charged fast. However, I worry if the high current could damage this phone.

"The TB won't use more than 1 A." Is there something about that statement that's unclear?

Okay, I meant was about the charging. For instance, if I use the 1 A, it might take about 3 hours to get fully charged. I wonder if the 2 A will decrease the time of charging!

You just don't get it, do you

You're in a maze of twisty passages, all alike.

Fits perfectly without changing the back plate. Made for the i9100 International Galaxy S II and fits our AT&T Version
Fair boost from a 1650.
Will see if it makes much of a real world difference and post back.
--------UPDATE---------
Using the battery I find about the same drain as the stock battery but the kicker is when I plug in the USB cable my phone goes into a boot loops. Sending the batteries back!

Fair boost IF it actually meets its rated capacity. Most cheapo aftermarket batteries don't even come close.
My Infuse 3500 mAh battery is probably closer to around 2500 based on initial testing.

What (eventually) happens to NFC if you don't use an "NFC battery?"

I figure if NFC is not even activated on this phone yet, might as well get the most juice for your phone. We'll reach that hill when we get there. By then they will have one with NFC.

Might short out the NFC controller or damage it in some other way...

My guess would be that the NFC battery has special shielding to keep from interfering with the NFC signal... but who knows?
Or maybe it just handles fast drain better...

Did you read the thread about battery compatibilities? If the battery doesn't have NFC, it will loop when you plug in to recharge. Recharging with a stand alone charger and then using it in the galaxy is fine.
Never saw that thread but I need to frequently plug in my usb.
I got the batteries too. They're great if you travel, or forget to charge your phone often. They do boot-loop. Nothing you can do to stop that.
Can someone tell me if I can charge the stock Samsung battery with this charger?
If so, I can cycle through all 3 batteries by charging it without the USB cable.
It would suck if I have to charge 1 with USB and some with charger... yikes..

[Q] Siyah battery charge rate

I recently installed Semi 17 Rom on my SII. I noticed that the charge rate according to ELIXIR2 is around 640 mA. I've updated to AJ's latest kernel, and it's still the same. I downloaded extweaks, and 650 mA is the highest setting available. How can I change this to a higher rate, and should I?
I was previously running unnamed, and I know the phone would charge at about 2000mA. I seem to recall that a lower charging rate could cause a problem while using navigation and google music. I had a car charger that only charged at about 500mA and it could not keep up while using these two apps.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

You can not make this phone charge any faster, this has been well documented.

OK. So I went back to Entropy's thread on his DD kernel and did some more reading. Then I flashed back to unnamed, because I thought I might be loosing my mind, and I'm still seeing the same results. I guess this means that something funky is going on with Unnamed/Elixir.
Thanks for being gentle with the noob

OPX Rapid Charging

This may or may not be new, if not then delete this thread.
From everything I've read, the OPX doesn't support quick charge/rapid charging. But my OnePlus X says it is charging rapidly when I plug it into my wife's GS6 adaptive fast charger.
This just happened so I need to give it an hour to see how "Rapid" it is. I'll report back the results.
If anybody has any info on whether or not this is legit please share. I'm confused ?
Currently running latest official CM13 nightly.

We have 2A charger, so when charging with this input current, it shows charging rapidly. This is not a fast charging. If you charge with 1A or usb, it wouldn't show.
It's a new feature in MM. It shows how fast the phone is charging. If you plug it in USB it will show it charge slowly. Currently blu_spark and boeffla kernels have option to enable fast charging (manually configure V and mA).

Isn't it quite dangerous just to manually increase voltage and ampere? You can't rely on that imo since you don't know the long term effects, or am I missing something?
I mean, the CPU probably supports it until some kind of level but since fast charge isn't activated.... (possible anyhow?)

Dangerous, yes. How much, I don't know.

IMHO, the dev knows what he should or should not implement for our device features. If they implement something that is means it compatible with our devices's hardware. But, use at your own risk.

Problems with the Quick Charge :(

i've been facing problem with the QC. I read that probably is the cable but i tried with S8 Cable and i had the same results...
I changed the rom (Aurel v12 / Cuoco v91) and didnt help me!
usually when i restart the phone th QC works but just for couple minutes after that goes down again!
i dont know whats happening! before it used to go under de 4000 MAh now is under 1600 MAh. :crying::crying:

That's not the problem whatsoever, as he have a low battery percentage and that's how batteries work. When charged it's 4.3-4.4V and when they are put to use, voltage slowly falls to the cut-off point which is 3.7V on most Lithium-ion batteries.
The issue that OP have may be related either to an insufficient cable or software issue. I would recommend to charge while phone is turned off to see if QC works and if so, factory reset the device or change the rom.

I have tried with my Samsung's phone charger (it is also 5V 2A), but charge rate remains same. Maybe my phone's battery going weak. But it's not even 2 year. It will in Nov.
And one thing more, actually it get fixed today after updating device. It charged at normal speed (an app showed 45% per hour), I usually don't use that app but I use it now to check charging status.
But now, it became again that slow. (App showing 12% per hour. 7hrs to full charge)

i don't think is a battery issue. also my battery is two years hold. i suggest you the original xiaomi cherger with a new cable. a more power charger is not compatible with mia3 tecnolgy. maybe the result can be a slow charging. are you on stock or custom rom? if you are on a costum rom probably is a software problem.

i'm agree with you
same problem here, but seem resolved with last update. I think it was a loading kernel module problem. the charger is good and the battery too. this is a kernel bug
