I would have expected it to still charge, just not as fast. I have a number of chargers here I can test and report back. Yes, unfortunately there are a lot of protocols, and not all fall back in a smart way. AFAIK the new PD does not fall back to other fast charge protocols. It could be that it is as stupid as licence issues - but that is just guessing... It would be nice if the protocols were 'nested' so the device and charger just had to agree on the highest both supports. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The latest QC will fall back to PD though, I believe. But we are stuck with QC 3, so no PD support. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Will post pictures later. Though I could not reproduce it every time, I managed to take photo's during one of the issue occurence. Phone was charging with 5.00V and 0.02-0.08A. On screen it appeared charging slowly, estimated time for full charge 1 day 17 hours. Battery was about 14%. Did not manage to reproduce using stock charger. This happened both on Aukey PA-U32 and PA-T16. If you disconnect and connect back, it may start charging quickly. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
D1ggs 141 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Bump, noticing the same weirdness as the OP. Except, this is on the stock cable and charger. Plugged it in at night, woke up with 48%. Tried different cables. Any reported solutions? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Always have to ask. :-) But I understand the frustration too. Have you tried enabling the mode where it can charge when off and then powering it off and plugging it in? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

D1ggs 141 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 For all the curious, changing the charging state and trying a different USB c cable seems to have solved the issue. The original cable still works, but I'll just leave him in the desk for now. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Did you have to charge it when off, before it would charge when on? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The cable still works, but it's been relegated to data only usage. Glad I bought a bunch of new cables from amazon before it got here. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
