QC 2.0 or even 3.0 charging for Redmi Note 4X? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

does the Redmi Note 4X (possibly with a custom ROM only?) support QC 2.0 or even 3.0 fast charging? The Snapdragon 625 "per se" does support QC 3.0 charging.
If not, does a QC 3.0 charger "hurt"/"damage" the RN4X?

Maybe if we have kernel source...

No, it won't hurt your phone. I use Anker charger which has QC 3.0 and everything works fine. It won't hurt you device because most of the chargers which supports QC, have many power outputs. For example, 5V/2A, 9/1.5A etc... In the case if your phone doesn't support QC, the charger will provide just 5V/2A, or as much Amps as the phone can take. Don't worry. When they made the chargers they made it universal and they thinked about that.

don't AospExtended and RR roms build upon the kernel sources?

FYI, those were Built with the pre-built kernel.
We need kernel sources from Xiaomi.

We'll, as some rumors around, its pretty close to release of kernel sources for Mido.

It's just rumours though. Like when the guys in MIUI forum claim they got an email saying a release at end of last month

Redmi 3 Pro with Qualcomm Quickcharge 2.0?

Hey... Got my Redmi 3 Pro last week, this is a fantastic device!
I read a lot about it before I bought it but there is one question left: does it support Qualcomms Quickcharge 2.0?
Read about it in another forum, they couldn't give an answer. Also there is a list made by Qualcomm about the devices that support Quickcharge, there are some Xiaomi devices but no Redmi.
Is there anyone out there who can say yes or no?
Thanks

No.
So, yes and no like always.
Well, as far as I know, the thing is like that: the soc (snap 616) does support Qualcomm QuickCharge, but the device itself doesn't, because it isn't just about having a specific processor.. It requires also a certain level of quality in all the other components (and Redmi3, being a low end device, doesn't have it)
Redmi 3 only supports the "standard" 2A quick charge.. I have never tried checking the actual charging time.. I believe it is around 2,30 to 3 hours

What do you want? OF course it does not support! Just read about that phone before asking this question .... Do you really think it would have never been written? @volpe96 gave you a answer.

Thanks... The phones price tag is low end, the specs are midrange. When you look what devices Qualcomm Quickcharge 2.0 support, then the Redmi 3 Pro could also support it https://www.qualcomm.com/documents/quick-charge-device-list
Even the bigger brother the Redmi Note 3 supports it.
@MTK6589 If you don't want to answer then let it be. I'm no noob who buys a phone, crashes it and asks in different threads how to repair it. I read a lot about the Redmi 3 Pro, but that is the only thing that wasn't clear. You're very unfriendly in my opinion, don't know why!

I know the specs are midrange.. But the quality of the materials (probably) is not.. And i am talking about the USB connector, the battery, inner filaments, and so on.. Not every piece of metal is capable of tolerating a big current through it without being damaged

Can you please be more specific? Do you own this device?
I am using this phone with the global dev rom, Xposed and more for 4 months now and am genuinely happy. Coming from an Xperia Z3 at 3-fold the price tag with constant overheating problems the RN4 simply works smoothly and constantly.
BTW, I would also appreciate a few more choices for alternative roms, but MIUI 8.2 is doing great for me.

Yes I own it and regret buying it, nothing wrong with the device itself, build quality and features are good, the only bad thing about it is the MTK chipset and it is the most important thing in a phone, it overheats and lags when gaming, and the development is already dead for this device thanks to them not sharing their sources. Will never see Nougat on this device for sure.

Okay, but isn't this the standard rant about MTK? You could have known before you decided to buy this device. Your overheating problems could be solved, but I guess you just want to complain for complaints sake.

Note 4/4x versions?

Ok so long story short, I'm looking at a new phone somewhere around 200 eur. The note 4x stands out to me as being good. However, I'm really confused about the different versions (CPU and stuff) and am wondering if anyone can help me out.
I've found these 2 phones. One has the Qualcomm CPU whilst the other seems to have the Mediatek helio. Which one is better/what are the key differences between them. Also, do they both ship with the Chinese MIUI or global? (sadly can't add links yet).
(I'm aware that this is sliiiightly off topic but is the note 4x the best Xiaomi phone under 200? What about the redmi 4x and others?...)
Thanks in advance, a noob who's way out of his league.
Edit: I'm stupid, both phones have the same CPU. My other questions still stand though.

YO,
Get the qualcomm snapdragon variant if you're into modding, tweaking.
Dunno about what version the device shops with, it's depends upon the regions too I guess as mine shipped with global stable (Indian variant of Redmi-note-4 (snapdragon)), you might get different version of miui installed on your device, I dunno much about MIUI version tho.
Yep, it's the best device under 200 atm.
Redmi 4X is also good one, but it has snapdragon 435 and it's better to get Redmi note 4.
hey guys when the global rom is installed is it normal for it to show up as a redmi note 4 not the 4x?
also if that is normal will it affect anything like apps working or OTA updates?

Just checked the advert. Qualcomm CPU, and it ships with global rom apparently. Granted, I'll probably be flashing some other rom.

The seller of the note 4x I'm buying from pointed out that exact thing. It's normal from what I know.
I don't think it affects apps and updates since under the skin, the 2 devices should be the near same.

All you've to do is to own a redmi note 4/4X with Snapdragon SOC in it. That's Mido, doesn't matter whenever they sold. All Roms works

New QC provided by Mi in India

Unless and until you install a kernel with quick charge support, nope it's useless. And also even if u do, just rather don't get it, because the phones internals are not made to support it. :'(

Kernel doesn't matter, Mido has hardware protection limiting charging current to 2A.
U can implement QuickCharge 4 kernel if you want, but it will still charge with 2A.

support for quick charge 4.0 or 4+?

Guys MR Jai Mani in one of his tweets told that Poco fone supports Qualcomm quick charge 4.0.
But did say that the diffrence between 3.0 and 4.0 aren't that noticeable.
First of all wonderful to hear that it's supported.
But
1. Does anyone really know how fast does qc 4.0 work.
2. Why is this device not listed under QC 4.0 supported devices in the Qualcomm website. And any method to check if our device is supported?
Guys if anybody has any experience with qc 4.0 or may know of a way to watch a qc4.0 charging speed test, kindly provide the info.
afaik the main difference between them is more safer to charge at higher amps

Check twitter for Poco India or the posters they've been putting in the last two days, it says they support qc 4.0 and as an additional info they say Poco F1 is certified splash.

There are no QC4.0 chargers available in the market. So for now we just settle with qc3

I was shopping for a QC 4 charger and found this - it seems (correct me if I'm wrong) there is minimal difference between the standards.
Don't suppose anyone can recommend a decent cheap compatible fast charger for the pocophone - I guess that would be qc3. I'm terrible for losing chargers and cables so I like to have a few spares.
Are all qc3 chargers and usb-c cables created equal, or is it like microusb, where I've had some that charge well, others that barely trickle?
Any suggestions?
Does anyone know whether the global version also supports QC4+?
Does europe version have QC 4.0+ and splash resistance?
AFAIK, the F1 supports qc4 (not 4+, though the standards are minimally different) and though it has no splash proof certification, it can handle a bit of rain and even (it's claimed) a dunk (though it has lots of moisture sensors inside, so don't tempt fate)

It seems pocophone f1 supports quick charge 4.0 and 4 plus as from the qualcomm device list
The qualcomm device list lists "Xiaomi Poco F1" but not "Xiaomi Pocophone F1".
Is it possible that only the Indian version supports it but not Global?
