Took me 3hrs to fully change my Mido. 0-100%

3-4 hours for a full charge, this thing really needs fast charging feature to charge this huge 4100mha battery..

Me too 3 to 3.30 minutes.If we use it while charging it charging slowly .

My phone take around 2 or 3 hours

2-3 hours as well, but I just charge while I'm sleeping. It easily lasts the full day, so I don't need to charge during the day

Charging RN4 mido is damn slow. It takes around 3hrs for 0-100% topup but why complain when the device lasts for 2days with 10+ hrs of SOT.

Anyone tested charging speed using a kernel that supports fast charging?

My phone takes around 2-2h30 hours to fully charge.

10% to 100% --> 2 hour 50 minutes

2.40 min if on if off around 2.20 if off

is there by any chance to enable fast charging on this device?

My phone takes around 1-1h30 hours to fully charge. Am from Brazil, here uses 230vts in my region...

Guys .. Is there a solution to enable the fast charging.
Thanks.

Get a micro-USB cable that is 22 AWG or lower (the lower the AWG rating the better). And make sure that the cable is made by a high quality manufacturer.

Charging Time
My Phone charges from 0-100 in 2 hours maximum.

Excuse me but charging Redmi Note 4 with STOCK ROM from zero % to 100% takes minimum 3 hours using the cable and charger from the box.
On stock rom I think it's impossible to go under 3h. What is Your take on this?

3 hours to fully charge my rn4 mido. If this device have quick charge it would greater than it is now

The stock charger doesn't come with quick charge, just buy qc charger that is 3.0 (I suggest Aukey qc) and you'll get atleast 2 hrs charge from 0-90%.

Feedback on Charging Times?

So one thing I I've heard is that the phone can be fully charged in 2 Hours, quite impressive as my S3(2100 mAH) takes 2 hours to fully charge whereas this phone fully charges 4000mAH in 2 hours.
Can the phone charge 0-30% in ten minutes? or something like 0-60% in 30 minutes or something similar?
nope, nothing like that. It does 0-40% in 1 hours, and takes 3 hours total. Its very slow.
My Galaxy Note 4 was really great, with about 90min. from zero to 100% but the Note 3 Pro need about 2h for 75%, the last 25% need about 1h, so 3h for 0 to 100%
I have 1.8A charger.. It was charging fast or 3h?
Here are two interesting user reviews about charging times.

I think I got 0 to 100% in 2 hours and 35 mins. 0 to 50 in 1 hour.

@exonerare I'm also using a S3 now and in thinking to switch to this phone.
But I think the charging times shouldn't really matter because from the XDA threads people are getting 10hours SOT (My S3 only gives 3~4) so i think its quite fair
It's been 2 days I am using redme note 3. Yesterday first time my battery completely got drained so, I plugged in for charging but it took almost 4 hours to charge just 2% and after that I replaced the charger with Motorola one then after 3 hours it was from 3% to 47% and then again I replaced the charger with Xiaomi one only then after 2 hours it was completely charge. So, what should I do guys should I go for replacement. I think something is wrong in battery.
From 10% to 100% about 2h30min with original Xiaomi charger that I got in the box.
Snapdragon version.
Quick Charge 2.0 would be great..
RN3 Pro 10% to 100% in 2hrs 30 mins - AOSP rom - original charger & cable
SD variant 32 GB,from 10%--->46% 1h;from 46%--->96% 1h;from 96%--->100% 20 min;i have tested both stock charger and this aftermarket/custom charger http://www.geekbuying.com/item/Tronsmart-Quick-Charge-3-0-USB-Wall-Travel-Charger-42W-1-and-2-VoltIQ-Ports-Quick-Charge-Port-Compatible-With-Quick-Charge-2-0---EU-Plug-363290.html.
Charging time is the same with both chargers
My phone is charging 20 to 100% in 1 hour 45 minutes is good or not can u please tell me?

Takes almost 2 hours with me using a 2.1a fast charger

if you have gsm battery app you can see that the phone cannot accept 2.1A,
it's the big cons indeed!
Takes 2h20m from an Anker IQ 2.4A charger (1-100%) With the stock 1A charger it takes 3+ hours.
I just got mine and it charges much faster with a 2 amp charger. I am using a 5 port Aukey with one port that has the Qualcom fast charge 2.0.
I also have a Blu VIVO 5 and the Honor charges just as fast as that with the 2 amp charger. The Blu Vivo 5 includes a 2amp in the box while the honor does not.
On my HTC One and my Sony Xperia Z3 compact, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.ampere reports something in the neighborhood of 1.4-1.7 amperes with a Quick Charge 2.0 charger, and I go from 1% to 60% in about 20-30 minutes as claimed. On my Honor 5X, the highest I see the app report is 850 mA, and it takes about as long as what everyone else is reporting. With a non-Quick Charge charger I get about 550 mA.
Edit: 850 mA is what I often see using one of my chargers. I'm using a different one right now and just now I saw it as high as 1.1 A.
Using an USB multimeter I can see it charge at 1A with my Blitzwolf 5 ports charger.
Honor 5x L22 model take around 3 hours to charge from 0-100%.
Wish they would enable Qualcomm Quick Charge tech for this device since the Chinese market version has it by default. It takes quite a while to charge from 0-100
Good speed with the normal 2 Amp charger. reaches 100% in and around 2hrs
Quite slow
upto the mark
Coming from a fast charging phone, honor 5x is quite slow. But it is OK as i use the phone normally so from 100 to 0 it last easily 2 days.
Sent from my KIW-L21 using XDA-Developers mobile app
yep they should have used some sort of quick charge
0-100% takes 2 and a half hours usually.
2hours with 2A charger
It's still very slow
Plus side is slower charge will keep your battery in better health and longer lifespan . fast charge is real harsh on the battery pack .
I find mine takes almost 3 hrs from about 5% to full when on and 4G running . You can get 60% in an hr or less which not bad .

VOOC from Oppo is the most efficient.
2 hours average from 5-100% on stock charger.

My charger taking 6hrs to charge after flashing 7.1 custom ROM,then I went back to miui 8,9 same issue Exists!!
Any suggestions for this??
anywhere around 2.5 hrs.
in miui Forums i read that you can buy a quick charge 3.0 charger (3 ampere) and this will enable QC feature. Charging time will jump under 2 hours for full charge

Yes saye i am using a turbocharger which came with motorola and no issues miui also shows a quick charge icon while using charger
I've upgraded to miui 9 and use zenfone 2 adapter, finally it show qc status.. charge faster than using orig adapter
After fast charging kernal 51-72 on using the phone it took 20 min so implies 100% in 100 mins ?
2:45hs with the stock 5v_2A charger. from 1 to 100%

Quick Charge 3.0 Kernel?

Hi, I'm using the 4x snapdragon, with the final Resurrection rom.
Can someone recommend a good kernel with quick charge and works alongside this rom?
Thanks in advance.

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 4(X) doenst support Quick Charge!
Snapdragon 625.
I recall that the chip does and xiaomi within the kernel restricted that.

No they did not, it's not kernel related but the charging board and battery that are not compatible.
Thanks for the info.
Why so obsessed to quick charge?
It's not much faster than the regular charge.
Quick charge enabled phone charge the 3000mah battery in 1.5hours... If the battery is larger 4000mah, it will takes approximately 2 hours to charge.
RN4 regular charge is about 2 hours 15mins... Its just 15 minutes longer and if we usually charge it overnight, its nothing difference... you want to take the unknown risk?

Are you sure? Source? Or do you mean that they are not rated for QC?

Yes!
We do all sort of things with our devices that are outside of "safe use". We overclock and overvolt them, flash stuff that could potentially brick them, etc.
As to why? I wouldn't charge the device from 0-100 with QC enabled but i sure as hell would like to charge it for 5 min and get 20-30%
If QC could be enabled it has to be tested sure, maybe it wouldn't be a good idea with an ambient T of 30C maybe the cut of point would be 60% or 20min. But yes I would like to test it.
Peace

When it comes to play the electricity, the risk isn't your phone brick but bomb...
And it will nowhere near 20-30% in 5 minutes.
LG G5 that have QC 3.0 enabled charge around 10% in 5 minutes. its with 2800mah battery, faster usb-c, etc...
What's the battery charging rate with a stock charger? My stock charger gives 1300mah at 70% and a Blitzwolf QC 3.0 gives 1700mah at 70%.

Well sure it won't be for every one, there is a real risk of the battery catching fire (bomb is a bit hyperbolic) . That's why IF it's possible people willing to take the risk have to test it out. Some might think it's worth the risk though.
My admittedly rusty back of the napkin math says it should be theoreticly possible to get 20% With 20V and 3.6A in less than 7 min.

1-80 should be close to 2000mah.
I have 2 rn4, comes with different stock charger.
EU and US plug
Stock charger with EU plug, charge about 1400-1600mah
Stock charger with US plug, charge about 1800-1900mah

you are wrong,
RN4 snapdragon need 3 hour 5m for fully charged (10~100%) with 5V2A charger
and the advantage of QC is they charge very fast in 0~70% (about 30min only) then slower until 100% (max 1H 40m total)

Oh please, 0-70% in 30 minutes?
Read here buddy: https://www.androidauthority.com/oneplus-5-galaxy-s8-battery-charge-781682/
Congratz.... You found better technology than OP5 dash charge and you don't need the fancy usb-c.
I just measured my RN4 charge speed
0-90 : less than 2 hour
90-100 : you need 45 minutes

I can say that because i have zenfone 2 with Quick charge support bro,, my zen2 only need 30m~40m from 10% to 60~70%
And can you upload log battery from 0~100 ?
Because i have 2 mido and all need 3hour for fully charge,, check my prove in attachment (log battery charge mido)
My friends also need +-3H for fully charged reno4

Well my sister has a zen 2 too... It's not quick charge..
Quick charge is qualcomm tech, zen 2 have intel on it.
And zen2 just have 3000mah battery on it, mido is 4000mah capacity... It's 25% larger. Its totally different...
Before using mido, I was using mi5s that have QC 3.0, with legit 3.0 charger and usb-c, its no way 60-70% in 30 minutes.
Well I have 2 mido, come with 2 different stock charger. One is RN4 global, with EU plug... Yes it will need about 3 hours to charge. One is RN4x, come with chinese charger. It need 2.5 hours to top... 2 hours will get you from 10 to anywhere between 10-90+%, the last 10% is very slow...
Will provide logs later, because I've fully charged my phone this morning and still have 78% left this afternoon.
I've measured this morning charge... Start from 17% to 90% takes 100 minutes.
Note 4 takes less than 2 hours for full charge 10-100%. Just don't use the phone while charging.

Yeah, need at least 2hours to charge from critical value to 90 percent, as my experience fully charge ur phone is bad (i prefer to charge till 95 to 97 percent) furthermore the screen on time is the same.

As request, this is my charge logs....
Yours from 10%... 1 hour charge = 39%
While mine from 10%... 1 hour charge = 58%
Sorry, I have many work to do and need my phone, so I can't do full charge now. You can see the graph, I have to use my phone while charging... Should be more than 58% if I do not use it

Charging after 70%

I have both redmi note 3 and Redmi note 4. In both phones, i am on dotOS 2.4. I noticed that note 3 turns down the charging speed after 70 % and last 30% takes nore than an hour. But redmi note 4 takes less than an hour to be fully charged. It it a kernel issue? Any fix for it?
the kernels protect your battery with chargers...
when your charge is low or high charger amperage is low, with this your battery has better life time.
In miui when i bought my phone the battery charge time is very low but this is bad.
if you can charge your phone to 80% and no more... and use until 10% your battery can work more years.
(when you charge a battery try to no use the phone or no much)
this if your battery can reach a day use with 80% to 10% aprox.
