Charging speed - Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Real Life Review

To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

my phone takes a long time to charge using the standard Zuk charger, I use the Motorola turbo charger and it's much faster, full charge in 1h

AEX rom with a qc3.0 charger
first your ZUK Z2pro must be rooted and install an app called "镧·系统工具箱"。
then you need a AEX rom and a qc3.0 charger
and enjoy a faster charger rate

你是中国的?????哈哈,:d:d:d:d
我用"镧·系统工具箱"功率最高只有16W,比官方的13w块不到哪去,你的最高多少W????

最高试过19w 当时刷的是aex4.5。不过也就维持了几分钟就掉到16w左右了。哈哈你好啊同胞

just try this config for fast charging while screen is on it boosted from 0.4 to 1.3A minimum. place it in /vendor/etc or /system/etc depending on your firmware (treble or non-treble), backup old file first and rename this .txt to .conf
requires root!
p.s. will also make gpu throttling go less, so will reduce lags in pubg

Fast battery charging

Hi friends!
I'm not an expert, but to me, this seems very strange. I understand that the Redmi Note 4 supports fast charging, but how fast is that actually and how does it work? For example, with the stock charger which is 5V and 2A, my phone from 1% to 100% is charged in about 1 hour and few minutes. The battery is 4100mAh , so for the stock charger it would take approx. 2 hours (plus-minus). Can anybody explain to me how the hell is my phone charged in around 70 minutes? In the different roms, there were different charging times, actually longer. Now with the AOSP custom rom, my phone is fully charged in around 1 hour. Not that i'm complaining, i'm just curious.
That's an interesting question.
I always have known it to be:
>4100maH Battery
>Charging at 2A
Therefore:
4.1AH / 2A = 2.05 hours

Math, the Queen
Fast charging depends on processor capability. Redmi note 4 have 625 SD processor which supports quick charge 3.0. If you go for higher end phones with 8XX Snapdragon processor they have quick charge 4.0 , it will even take less time to charge. You can google about the science behind this, but to the best of my knowledge quick charge 3.0 passes higher current minimizing resistance during charge process. One small detail you can notice, fast charging charges battery upto 80% pretty faster & after that speed of charging slows which is needed to prevent battery from exploding. Almost all fast charging adv says "0-80% in xyz miniutes", hardly anyone advertise 0-100% in xyz mins.
Could you mention, which rom are you using?
as far as i know, 625 supports QC 3
but xiaomi didn't activate it in the kernel hence only QC 2 is working...
Are you getting the same 10 hours of SoT in 1 full charge?
If yes, then what ROM / Kernel you're on?
People are here in this forum randomly talk about SOT & VULCAN API i highly appreciate if anyone explain... Thanks
SoT: Screen on Time, the time you can use your phone with the screen is active e.g. watch a video, text someone...
There is a difference between between SoT and Standby time. You can have a SoT of 12 hours while you carry your phone around 2 days.
Vulkan API: I refer to Wikipedia : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulkan_(API)
Very fast!!
Could you please share Rom and Kernel version ?
Yes my battery also charges quite fast on stock Miui rom & the charging graph looks quite straight up but not as fast as turbo charging of moto. Though I never reached below 53% yet because my screen on usage per day on average is 6.30hrs and I get it there by 53%
One thing I'd like to know if it's for everyone.
As I power on the charger connecting to the phone it generates some hiss sound. Listen up closely.
But if I power on charger without connecting phone then there is no such sound.

I am so sorry to tell you, you forgot that the 2A are connected to 5V input -> 10W
The battery is a "BN41" with 4.4V and min 4.0Ah and 15.4Wh -> in theory 15.4Wh / 10W ~ 1.5h with a power factor of 100, but there will be loss as heat is generated during the charging. In order to charge the battery a BMS(either by the SoC or added circuit) is required, which will produce a loss of usable power, hence the higher charging time.
The out of the box charger of my Redmi Note 4 Global is a EU charger rated 5V 2A but never goes above ~1.3A+/-1% (meassured with a Keweisi KWS-10VA USB tester).
A 5V 1.5A USB(*1) and a 5V 8A USB(*6) power supply gives ~1.45A and my 5V3.1A car charger (2xUSB with alternating display for voltage, current and temperature) delivers a bit over 2A.
I read in reviews (cannot remember where) that the Xiaomi US charger for the Redmi 4x SD delivers a higher current, even when connected to 230V.

Is it possible to limit the rate of charge to 500 mA by software?

My understanding is that a high rate of charging heats the battery excessively, causing it to degrade faster. This could be prevented more easily if it was possible to limit charge rate (to, for example, 500 mA) using a suitable app. Is that possible?
I dont think so.... current is determined by battery source & resistance. Without a variable resistor that can be control through some software. Not sure how that would go. I dont think phones are made now to run at variable currents with stability. I know some devices can run at lower currents with a set current as the absolute max.... anything above you are going to destroy the device. Smartphones now arr like computers & pretty close to being just as sensitive as one too.

[MOD] FIX CPU Throttling When Charging/Gaming (Increase Charging Speed Screen On)

STANDARD DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for any damage caused to your phone or loved ones.
MUST HAVE ROOT.
The PROBLEM:
This mod is for phones that throttle heavily and lag during charging / heavy use/ gaming. Seems like it affects people on stock-based roms rather than AOSP/lineage based roms since the thermal file is deleted/edited already. Switching kernels does not help the throttling at all. Using any kernel or cpu app (EX kernel, kernel aduitor), you should see that the cpu freqs throttle down to 652mhz on the small cluster and 1036mhz on the big cluster when charging or after heavy use. The throttling isn't caused by thermals since the CPU temps and battery temps are well within acceptable levels (below 50 degrees cpu and below 25 degrees battery).
Seems like the only reason LG does this is to prolong battery life rather than keeping performance at acceptable levels.
The second issue is the SLOW charging when your screen is on. Ampere reports a maximum charging rate of ~300mah when charging (qc3 or regular) before the mod. This mod will increase it to ~1000mah when screen on (I'm unsure how to increase it further). Screen off charging is unaffected and is still Quick Charge.
THE FIX:
Download my "thermal-engine-8996.conf" file here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0W3xXHgfOxvLUpKNWhrWDE0TDg/view?usp=sharing
Use a root explorer.
Backup your old one in root/system/etc (or just rename it to thermal-engine-8996.conf.bak).
Put the new one in root/system/etc
Edit: apparently it downloads as a .txt file so change it back to .conf
Change permissions to rw-r--r--
Restart and enjoy lag free charging + increased charging speed!
This will make your device slightly hotter and possibly less battery life during heavy use but that's a given.
Thermal throttling is NOT affected (CPU speeds still throttle after 80 degrees with my testing)
Flashing rom updates WILL overwrite the file so you will need to replace it again.
Different versions:
Reduced charging speed (to 600mah) when screen on (To reduce heat): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7VVzSKFTGVkNHBnWXNYY2JJdEU/view?usp=sharing
Reduced max speed (to 1824mhz) but kept 1000mah charging when screen on (should reduce heat when doing intensive tasks): https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7VVzSKFTGVkWjlnUF84SDc0N0k
Reduced charging speed (600mah) + max speed (1824mhz) to reduce heat even more and will still help reduce lag:https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7VVzSKFTGVkV2ZoTU1sS2YtOUk/view?usp=sharing
What I did:
Under [KRYO_SS] in the conf file, I edited the "device_perf_floor" value to 2150000 instead of the stock 1036800. This will cause the phone to never throttle below 2150mhz big cluster and 1593mhz small cluster when charging/heavy use. If you are using an kernel that supports overclocking, this value can be set higher (to your max big cluster mhz). The small cluster mhz will automatically scale up since there's no value for it anyways. I think this entire section is just to save battery life as I see no other benefit from throttling when you're charging (when temps are low). Honestly, you can probably delete the whole section under [KRYO_SS] and it'll keep it at max mhz but I rather have some control over it.
For increased charging speed when screen on, I edited the values under [CHG_MONITOR]. I also deleted the entire [PA_MONITOR] and [LCD_ON_MONITOR] section. This increases the charging speed to ~1000mah from ~300mah but I can't seem to increase it further when screen on. Might be due to another setting I haven't found yet.
I also increased the GPU clocks to decrease throttling but I haven't found GPU throttling to be a problem at all before the mod so this probably won't affect performance.
The only other phone I have found that has the same thermal conf file is the LG G5 thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/help/reduce-gpu-thermal-throttling-help-t3471510
Seems like they were doing it for the GPU throttling however.
Let me know if anyone is having issues with this mod or wants to implement it in their rom

If you use a cpu monitoring app (cpu-z or kernel aduiter), you will see the cores don't throttle when you have the phone plugged in after applying the mod. Ampere will also report a maximum charge rate of about 1000mah when screen on.

Lol! I call it "my charger on steroids" mod.... Good job! ?
I just want to make a point that if you are doing this mod it is highly advisable to switch to a QC 3.0 charger for your battery to maintain its lifetime. One of the reasons that this was put into place is because QC 2.0 pushes a LOT of voltage to the device to quick charge it when the screen is off and the phone is idle because there will be less overall heat generated in the device (which LG wants to avoid after the bootloop situation it can't seem to get out of). QC 3.0, which the v20 is capable of using, charges faster and cooler than its 2.0 counterpart and will be easier on your battery lifespan. A QC 3.0 charger is more efficient overall and should be going on sale soon because QC 4.0 is on the way/out now with the new Samsung devices.
And yes, you can swap this battery out if the first one won't hold a charge anymore, but the longer you keep the first one the later you have to pay for the second one (assuming you keep the phone that long). Also, you do not want the components to bake in case the v20 uses the same manufacturing technique as the 5x did.

Hmm interesting. Yeah the thought of restricting the voltage to prevent any heat build up at all came to mind. I still think they overdid it with the throttling to the point where it is unusable when charging.
The thermal file can be edited so it throttles a bit or halfway which I explained in the op if anyway is worried about the heat.

Honor 8X battery life

Does anyone know how well the battery works on the Honor 8x? The battery is 3,750mAh, which doesn’t seem huge.
Here’s a review: https://www.techradar.com/reviews/honor-8x/2
Pretty good battery section.
Apparently, power management is pretty solid. It says that it lasted the whole day with heavy use.
The battery is huge and I can confirm while being a heavy user that this phone is lasting very long and like ceciliahey said have a very good power managment :good:

I use honor 7x which battery is 3340mAh. Not a gamer myself, but outside of work I spent a lot of time on social media or watching vids. I’ve never needed to charge my phone till bedtime. I think you can safely expect improvements on this next-gen 8x.

Terrible battery life?

My battery life is pretty terrible at the moment, I also had to turn a setting off in the battery options to get it to charge above 75%. Anyone having battery problems? I am thinking the battery might need a good calibration.

Mine seems fine as well. Ran all day yesterday under heavy usage, and was at 40% at 2am when i went to sleep. So far I've been running all day today under moderate usage, and am at 77% (~11pm)
seems pretty good so far, if you use the dual screen you will see decreased battery life..been two days since I got it and it is still in the "analyzing usage" mode for determining battery life. but a normal days of Microsoft teams chats since we are working remote, and moderate use of the mail and web browser with some (15%) dual screen usage was only down to 65% at the end of the day yesterday. Probably will take a week while is adjusts itself and we can see true battery life. Have not seen any way of getting an additional dongle for the dual case charging, just one is supplied in the dual screen box..
Well, it isn't like there is some foolish electron sucking device (like a 120 Hz screen) in it.

How is the total usage 16h 29m with over 6brs SOT, but the phone was idle for 16h 30m? Does the idle just refer to radios?

I think it means that it's 16h 29m from the last time it was plugged in

If that's the case, that means the phone was partially charged during a 23h period, meaning these are not accurate battery statistics. No biggie, I'm just trying to get an accurate idea of how long the battery lasts

It wasn't. That was off of the first overnight charge after getting the phone. I was at work the whole day and didn't put it back on the charger until I went to bed last night. I'm getting similar results today.

I'm not sure why it reports idle time as the same as the usage time

It shows the same today

K thanks. I must not be interpreting that stats correctly. I think the 16h 30m idle must be referring to the LTE radio. Otherwise the numbers don't add up. Were you on WiFi this whole time? I know I am since we are locked down ?

I am assuming the same thing. I'm also just amazed by the battery life because I've been using Galaxy phones for the last few years and I have always had terrible battery life. It seems that the reporting in this phone is rather vague as well. I'm going to use a different app to track usage

It was mostly wifi, but with some spats of LTE

I'm pretty sure this will be my next phone. I just might be a few weeks, since everything is kinda crazy right now. My last LG was my V20 which I loved

My phone idle stat nearly matches the time since a full 100% charge was completed. Bad name for the stat if you ask me.

Did you set up the phone from scratch or use some switch app like lg switch? I had to reset mine to fix app instability and battery issues due to the restore.

OK that makes me wonder. I used the app to reinstall everything, and I'm getting pretty sucky battery life.
If I reinstall from scratch, is there a way to restore settings, emails, and messages from my previous phone?
I'm getting awesome battery
I just pulled some awesome battery life! I've never seen it this good in my life. 1080p screen you are just fine for me. I don't miss my 1plus 7tpro McLean at all.
