Usb type c cable capable of hypercharging - ASUS ROG Phone II Accessories

Hello ARP2 fellas i am currently in search of a replacement usb-c cable for my 30W charger as the stock one ended up in my dog's menu The official Asus cable (ACAU003) which comes with the 30W charger seems harder to find and even if i managed to spot a couple of them they sell for 20+$, add the shipping fees and it will cost as much as the 30W charger itself Is there anyone around who tried an aftermaket cable capable of 30W Hypercharging? Many usb-c cables from AliExp or Ebay are marketed as 100W ones but not everyone in the comments is happy with the quick charging results on their devices and that's why i am hesitant to buy one. Any help is appreciated.

Try Baseus, usb3.1 to C works great + very good quality, but didnt try their usbC to C yet, its supposed to arrive in around a week so I can give you an update then.

Thanks Vardes, if you will not forget about it jump in and share your thoughts please. I might wait some more until someone else replies. Yeah Baseus and UGreen have a lot of positive reviews, still many people complain about their fast charging results

I would recommend Apples USB-C to USB-C cable. I have been using that since my N10+ and now ROGPHONE 2.

I'm using 2 of these mcdodo cables, 2m each rated 5a.
With the original charger from Asus I must say that the charging is very very fast. And I'm using one to charge my phone in my car, with a 30w small Baseus charger.
They have new cables tho', something with autodisconnect if u check their page but i didn't got them so i don't know how good those are.

got my baseus c to c cable, tested it today with stock charger, it has shown me hypercharge and overall charging time was around 1.5h from 8 to 100%. Overall build quality is great, braided 2m cable - almost identical to Bhl00's one, just different plugs. Here is the cable itself: http://imgur.com/gallery/A5Ee4Yy

VarDes thank you for coming back leaving your feedback here. I am happy your Baseus cable is suitable for Hypercharging, just one last favor. Can you share a link or a reference product picture of the specific Baseus cable you have bought since they have several usb-c to usb-c cables in their portfolio. Thank you in advance

Hello is your baseus c to c cable looks like this? I want to buy but afraid wrong, it's written supports PD3 and QC 4.0 though, it's shown 60W though, is this ok cause the original charger is only 30W? Just want to make sure just in case, thanks for your help !

Looks exactly like the one I have, and it is ok that it supports 60W - just means its basically futureproof and/or capable of charging a laptop .

Forced AC Cable

I've seen a little chatter on the New Trent battery packs, but haven't seen this issue, so I wanted to see if I can figure out what's up.
I've had the IMP500 (5000mAh) for 3 or 4 months and really like it in general. Well, the little micro USB adapter has a little too much play and after 30 or so plug ins and outs it has a hard time maintaining a connection, to the point where it's almost unusable.
When I use the included wire, it shows up as AC charging. But, if I use a 'real' USB cable, it shows up as USB... which as we know can't provide a positive charge while using.
I know about the whole shorting of the 2/3 pins to force an AC charge, and I can see the mechanics that give me AC with the New Trent wire. But it would appear that I'm out of luck without getting a new one of those.
Anyone know of a USB wire that will force AC charging?

No, because any cable that shorts 2-3 isn't a USB cable, just as a charger that doesn't isn't a USB charger. They simply don't meet the specifications. If they're labeled "USB" anything, call the manufacturer and complain.
yes, a USB charging ONLY cable: available here:

One can buy chargers from reputable companies which follow the USB charging specification for under $10 (car or AC). Why mess with non-standard chargers and cables which are no cheaper, from bit players?
Back when I got my Dinc, I bought like 10 of these, they were actually on special for like $2.99 ea.. they are now close to $5 (amazon prime free shipping).

I bought the other day one of these the other day as I didn't have a Car charger...

< $3.50 with free shipping (not amazon prime).
I had a meeting the other day and I ended up connecting my Rezound using one of the cables above with the charger above and got AC charging indication on the phone when it was charging.
Works great.
I also have 4-5 of these around the house ... Not phone related
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0037G2BMY
I use them when "family" comes over with their broken desktop computers and need me to "fix" them. Instead of stringing them to my office, I just plug one of these in and Wifi them so that I can work on them remote from my notebook. They are like $8 and work great.

Have you guys heard of Mediabridge? I got one of their ethernet cables, but now it's the only brand I buy when it matters. If anyone is still looking for a charging only cable, they have a long 6 ft. cable and a coiled cable - though they do have sync cables with the same stats too (and cheaper).
Here are the charging only cables from Amazon:
Oops, I guess I do too much lurking and not enough posting because it tells me I can't post outside links until I've had 10 submissions.
Simply do an Amazon search for Mediabridge USB Charging Cable and they should be the first 2 results that show. You can compare them with the data/sync cable because the data cable is a single color where the charging only has a dark cable and light grey terminals.
If you're interested in the data/sync cables you can find them under Mediabridge Hi-Speed USB 2.0
If you're using a wall charger or a car charger, either modify the cable (not ideal) or the charger itself (more ideal) to short the D-/D+ pins. When the phone detects the data pins shorted together it assumes it's connected to an AC charger. If you do this to a cable, make sure that only the micro-USB end is shorted and cut the wires so the USB A end isn't shorted.
Many PC USB ports are limited to 500mA draw anyway.

Where can i buy original usb cable for nexus 6?

Hello i've lost my original usb cable. I can't find original (genuine) nexus 6 cable anywhere. Please help me. Thanks.
Is there any particular reason why you want a "genuine" Nexus 6 cable?
It's just a bog standard microUSB lead - you can get them anywhere, from 99p jobs on eBay up to decent brands like Anker from Amazon for a few pounds.
Anker and Monoprice are my go-to USB cables. They work well, are decently built, and reasonably priced. I see no reason to pay more for something that's, at best, as good as the ones I already use. I'm not aware of anywhere to buy the N6 OEM cable, maybe Motorola? They probably use the same one on most of their phones.
Monoprice is an excellent cable I replaced my original with it

Thanks for your replies. I thought there is no difference for file transfer but charging with a different cable may harm battery. Because of this i want a genuine cable. But after your answers i'm gonna buy an anker or a similar good quality cable.

You don't need to really worry about cables harming your battery unless there is something seriously wrong with them. Either way I really like the genuine cables too but there are high quality alternatives you can buy since a sable and charger is 30 bucks. I can't tell you what great cables would be because I use two genuine moto ones but, I can tell you to stay away from aukey. Their cables were loose fitting.

Which is why I included the "seriously wrong" bit because I've read the articles about Benson and the cables fried his devices because the ground and power leads were reversed. The micro-usb spec is fairly safe at this point, the main issue is manufacturers screwing up usb-c cables lately.

There are 3rd party cables that are just as good or better than original. I can guarantee an Anker cable will work perfectly and not harm your phone. Even if I had an original cable I would use an Anker instead. They're probably the best you can get.
Check this out: (braided and gold plated) http://www.ebay.com/itm/Anker-6ft-1...653234?hash=item2361fa5d72:g:ZBkAAOSwXshWrJei As a matter of fact, I just bought another one.

It's not the cable, it's your charger that's the problem.

I really don't understand that the cable matters for charging time or not?

The cable matters a lot, and the One you bought is the best from anker right now. I have one of those and use it with this charger:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014F3D8FQ?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00
Maybe, your problem is at the combination of the anker charger and the motorola wall adapter, who knows. Anyways, the best way to really compare, is to download this app (its not the most exact way but you get an idea)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.ampere&hl=en
Let your phone drain to under 40% and connect it with the app open. If youre using the Oem Wall adapter it should go up to about 2200 o 2300, sometimes 2400. Try it and report back.
I've always stuck with genuine cables just for fear that a cheap cable would fail at fastboot flashing. My side question here, is do 3rd party cables do just fine with fastboot? Not fails or issues? Thanks!

Choetech USB-C to USB-C 6pk review

I got a 6pack of Choetech USB-C to USB-C cords this week and have been able to test out the different lengths it came in.
The package came with:
1x - 1.6ft
4x - 3.3ft (Standard length that usually comes with your phones)
1x - 6.6ft

I like the 6.6ft cord for by the couch and/or next to the bed when I'm charging the phone and am laying down. Sometimes I need a little extra length on the cord so it doesn't get pulled out of the wall.
The 1.6ft cord is prefect for charging in the car. I happen to drive a manual vehicle so it's nice that the cord doesn't get in the way. I was using the 3.3ft cord and it would get in the way sometimes when I'm shifting. The new length is perfect. Just long enough connect to my Anker AC vent magnet mount. All cords charged my phone "rapidly" so no complaints. I haven't done any data transfer onto a computer since most of it resides in the cloud.
The build the cords are nice, thick but not really flexible. I have USB cords from tronsmart and anker. The build on these feel about the same build quality. It's definitely more sturdy then some of the other thinner cords. Maybe since I've never owned one or tried a braided cord, I wish they could have had 2 braided 3.3ft cords and 2 regular 3.3.ft cords instead of 4 regular ones. All in all, I'd recommend this 6pack for someone who may need more cords then the single one they provide for you in the box.
Are these Nathan approved? I've been so tempted to buy some cheaper cables bit really don't want to get burned. I ended up purchasing the Apple 2m USB C to USB C cable as Nathan mentioned this is the best cable out there right now.

Further down in the comments:
Benson Leung*says:
It's not true that all C-to-C cables are in spec. The Type-C spec also has strict requirements or cable impedance, or how much voltage drops from source end of the cable to the sink. It can be no more than 500mV on Vbus.
Cables that violate that limit may result in much slower charging.

I wrote Choetech an email and this is their response:
We have sent samples to Benson Leung, but he is too busy to test our cables now.
We have a new e-marked cable which is certified by USB-IF,

I also received these USB cables a few weeks ago for free from CHOETECH, I haven't left a review as I like to test stuff for more than a few days before recommending a product to anyone. I don't have any expensive meters to test voltages and stuff, but from day to day use, they function perfectly as they're supposed to. The build quality on the cables are amazing. As noted before, they are sturdy and by no means your typical cheap flimsy cable. I keep a cable by my bedside, a few in my car for on the go charging for me and my passengers, and one at the computer. The cables are pretty heavy duty since they're stepped on from time to time at my computer. Sometimes they get pulled on and cables still work perfectly, I can't comment on how fast these cables are because I have no use cases where it would max out the transfer speed, but it's fast enough for my needs. I also like the fact that they're plain cables in a plain bag with no flashy buzz words and tacky marketing on it. (Am I paying for the cables or for the fancy packaging?) I am very satisfied with this product and would recommend it to everyone else.

I concur with the opinion that these are of good quality and work well. I have used them to power both my Lenovo Yoga 910 and my Pixel, using both the Google Pixel OEM adapter and the Anker Powerport+ 60W adapter. One of the 3.3ft cables did have a damaged connector, which collapsed on insertion into my Pixel OEM adapter, but the others all work fine and seem to be sturdy and solid in construction. Choetech is sending me a replacement of that 3.3ft cable. I carry these in my bag every day and I've been charging overnight with the longer cable.

I CANNOT say the same for this E-marked Choetech 10Gbps cable +clockcycle links to, which now appears on the spreadsheet with a BAD rating. It fails to charge my laptop and my Pixel and also seems to put my Pixel into some sort of voltage protection state. I'm awaiting a replacement from Choetech, but I have my concerns considering the updated test results by Nathan K. I'll note that Benson had said in 12/2016 that the cable appeared to him to be good, but that it had some missing fields which he initially just attributed to it being a test unit that Choetech supplied for review rather than for retail sale. Since then, Nathan K. has noted the same issues and more with retail units, and those results are reflected in the BAD rating in the spreadsheet.

Xiaomi Mi 9 Wireless Charger

Is there a good offer? Maybe with a normal Charger QC4.0?
Thank you

I bought mine from AliExpress.
I too ordered mine from AliExpress - with the 27W wall plug bundle
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Ori...381.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.12f44c4dJnoFeC
Question: did you buy the bundle (~30 euros) or just the wireless charger? (~20 euros)
I wonder if I can use the stock 18W charger to power the wireless charger and still get the 20W wireless charging...
Does anyone know if you need a specific power adapter to use the wireless charger?

How do you want to get 20W on the wireless pad using a 18W socket?? If you use the 18W adapter you will just limit the pad to 18w too.
You must buy the bundle (27w power adapter + 20w pad). You can use the 27W adapter directly using usb cable to get full dash charge, or use it on the 20w wireless pad

Because there are watts, amperes and volts.
I just read the product description and saw that:
Input: 12 Vdc, 1.35 A or 20 V, 1.35 A for QuickCharge
Given that the charger that comes with Mi 9 (MDY-08-EI) delivers a max of 12V / 1.5A, the answer to my question is no, it won't work - not at max quick charge capacity at least.
Hard to see point of wireless charger really. Seems to me its better to have a cord, you can use the phone lol . On the wireless charger, phone have to sits there.
I like wireless in the car for example.

Agreed, though I must admit I've grown quite fond on my wireless charging stand next to my bed for night time. Just nice to simply place it down and pick it up, bypassing the need to plug or unplug!
It's the simple things in life eh lol

that's why order with adapter from ali for just 10$ extra. Otherwise it's a turd. Try find standalone QC4+ cable charger for this price locally. Worth it.
Your performance is ok, 18W QC2+ chargers were always used to power up 'fast charge' wireless stations in order to produce such output (10W).
in order to product 20W wireless, you need not 20W adapter, but 27W QC4+ adapter as there's lot of loss.
Wireless chargers (i have all types):
*5W: require basic hispeed charger (rated usually 5Vx2A=10W)
*7.5W: iphone stuff, who cares, requires QC2+ charger (18W)
*10W: requires QC2+ charger (18W)
*15W: forgotten generation (although some Huawei customs exist), remember people were waiting for samsungs to upgrade the speed for years but since S7 nothing happened
*20W: upcoming generation, requires QC4+ charger (27W), hope it will be official qualcomm format so we can use the charger for another devices..so far it's not specified in Qi
If you are thinking to use the pad next to your bed..... Don't.... The fan is making a lot of noise...

I have this one:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B07KG5HDFX?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_pd_title
It's not fast as such, but I really don't mind. I pop it on when going to sleep and wake up fully charged, so fulfills it's purpose! Plus I like the stand more than just a pad (and it's silent )

That's a bummer... I had hoped to replace the good old cabled phone setup besides the pillow...
I'm really interested on buying the wireless car charger, but haven't seem that available at a fair price so far...
I can only find twice of Xiaomi's MSRP...

Made the mistake and bought only the wireless charging pad without the plug and cable :/... is there any cheap and good separate plug and cable available?
Same here, I just bought the pad, I thought it would come with the charger (different from the 27W) or at least I thought I could use the original Mi9 charger
I found only plug deal here. :highfive:

Cheers, kind sir!
has anyone received this yet and tried it out?
saw this but wanted to know how loud it is when in use: youtube.com/watch?v=gvXSAGuS1PU&lc=z22uu3xbswmlthudjacdp431dzjsvg5gjw53i03sje5w03c010c
I'm using the official one since a few days, it's fast, but the phone get hot and a quiet fan is running sometimes.

Found a 3rd party multi-port charger that supports SuperFast Charging on S20 Ultra

I know there don't seem to be a lot of 3rd party chargers that are capable of "Super Fast Charging" on the S20, but just wanted to drop a quick note that I found one.
I travel (well usually..) a bit, and try to consolidate my chargers a bit so I'm always on the lookout for decent multi-port adapters. As everyone knows, there are a ton of high powered adapters out there that you would hope give us the juice, but if you have read a bit - Samsung not only requires a PD port, but also PPS - and there aren't a whole of lot of adapters that support them.
I was hoping to pick a new adapter up to try and keep my Surface Go and S20 Ultra charged up, and not be a huge brick and came across this 65W 3-port bad boy: https://amzn.to/2L5d2uf from a company called Baseus. I have a couple of cables from them and they also seem to be popular on Aliepxress as well as Amazon, so decided to give it a try.
Got it in last night and paired it with a new USB 3.1 Gen 2 100W cable that I also just picked up, and lo and behold - I plugged that sucker in and "SUPER FAST CHARGING 2.0" popped up on the screen when using the top USB - C port.
Interestingly enough the second power only registered "SUPER FAST CHARGING" (no 2.0) and the USB-A QC port registered as "FAST CHARGING." Reading through the documentation it's because the first port can give the whole 65W, the second tops at 30W, and of course USB-A is limited. I guess that makes sense since Super Fast 2.0 is 45W with the Samsung OEM charger.
Bottom line, if you are looking for a 3rd party multiport that supports the max charging on the S20 (and I assume Note 10) - this one does the trick. I got mine on Amazon (they had US stock so came relatively quick) - but if you are willing to wait, can probably pick it up on Aliexpress or other source for cheaper.
I bought it for my laptop 4 months ago now its the only charger I use .

Nice! -- my primary use was for my Surface, and I didn't think I'd get the highest charge with the S20U, but was a pleasant surprise.
I got an Ugreen USB C Charger 36W with 2 Type C ports that works as a Super Fast Charger

You can use any PPS PD charger like baseus 65W on aliexpress but super fast 2 will not be real.
Many chargers trigger Super Fast Charging 2.0 but before You will celebrate, please run battery charging monitor from play store. It will draw a charging curve. Almost all non samsung chargers will oscilate. You wil see around 6000ma and after 2-3s it will drop to 500, and again and again.
This can damage your device, and will take a long time to charge

Thanks for the heads up. I ran the app for a few minutes on the BaseUS charger and didn't see any of the dramatic dips as you mentioned above - so I'm hoping that's a good thing. Looks like a pretty consistent curve.

The charging current you are getting is not Super Fast Charging 2.0 even though it says so in your notification bar. This is mine with Super Fast Charging 2.0 using the Samsung charger and cable. Battery Charging Monitor will report a higher charging current.
Also wanted to add that the Xiaomi Powerbank 3 Pro with USB PD will charge the S20 Ultra at Super Fast Charging 2.0 and at 5A with the supplied samsung cable. And aftermarket Baseus USB C cable only gives 3A.

Interesting -- well, I guess my takeaway is that it isn't TRUE 2.0 super fast - but also it hopefully won't fry my battery! (i.e. not as fast as I'd like, but at least not going to damage the battery).

I tried my test with a couple of 100W-rated USB 3.1 gen 2 cables - so it definitely wasn't the cables. But goes to show that cables are an important part of the equation too!
SFC 2.0 require e-marked cables to work, as well as compatible pps charger.
IMHO the best option is to get 45w samsung charger. Other brands are hit or miss.
