Phone (2a) - Fast Charging

MohanPrasath_bQVADZxOrU · 2024-03-15T18:29:48+00:00

Hi guys, I bought my Nothing phone (2a) one day ago. Had ordered the Nothing 65 watts charger with the phone. Since then i have been noticing this constant...

There is a bug with Charging speeds in Phone 2a i think.

Nothing team should release a software update to recognise charging speeds. Phone randomly chargers fast after removing and connecting several times.

arpan2308 yes bro I’m using the bottom type c post of Gan Changer with the nothing type c cable…I thought I’m alone having this issue but there are lot with me. This gives a sense of relief and nothing will help us out and then we will have nothing to say except everything is best in nothing (phones)

I brought nothing 2a in Flipkart without charger now I want to buy charger I shows 3k but it with bundle shows 2k only now how can I buy cmf charger for 2k

ramJagan Hello @ramJagan , I would recommend a charger from COSTAR from Amazon at 1,999. It charges my Nothing 2a from 2% - 100% within an hour.

It’s 65W GaN Fast Charging Adapter with a 20W USB Type-A and 65W USB Type-C charging ports with PD3.O and PPS protocol.

The adapter heats up slightly during the charging but the phone remains relatively cooler.

But i would recommend to use this method as less as possible and use possibly another low powered Charger, if available, and also in any method, charge the Phone uptill 80-85% always, to prolong the battery life. Keep the battery between 20-80% for best battery health.

And another request to the Nothing Team to add a feature for Smart charging to disable charging after about 80% charge has been established. To prolong Battery life.

Thank You !

@Carl … @Daniel

Please address this issue and is a concern .

Also , nothing should provide the compatible charger with the phone .

VaibhavJoshi_fVpTRkEhS0 bro can I charge my nothing 2a with different company charger?..is there any issue with it?

johannes_m

Muja

No issue with different charger. If you want fast charge (when they fix the issue for 2a) you need a PD=Power delivery charger.

I am also facing the same issue with Phone 2a. I am using 65W CMF GaN charger along with Nothing supplied type c to c cable. It is charging very slowly like 30 % in 30 mins. Sometimes after disconnecting and reconnecting the charger, it starts charging fast like 60% in 30 mins. All calculations done with screen off and under similar conditions.

Please consider rolling a fix soon.

johannes_m is cmf 65W is PD one?

ShumanBaishya

after recent update now my phone takes more than 2 hours to charge..after 2.5.5 update

Glad that it’s working for someone!

mayurvarde

Yes. It’s working also for Phone 1 and 2 fine. I can not test it but seems to be a software issue with 2a. But for the guy above you fast charging is working.

On my phone 1 Quick Charge wit PD working fine with a 33W PD and also a 65W PD charger.

Good example that fast charging is working:

Very Disappointed ☹️

johannes_m Hello! Some tips to achieve the best charging experience with (2a):

1) Please use adapters that support the standard PPS protocol and have a power output greater than 45W (PPS: 3.3-20V/2.25A), such as Nothing’s 45W adapter or other adapters with labels indicating “3.3V-20V/2.25A (45W Max)” that support the standard PPS protocol.

2) The fastest charging can be achieved at an ambient temperature of 25° C with the screen turned off.

I am using Nothing 45W charger and it is taking more than 3 hours to charge. Many of my friends are facing same issue. It is not resolved even after installing latest update v2.5.4. Nothing team should address this issue asap

MMMonish true I am also facing that issue, I am not understand nothing team what are you doing?

My nothing phone 2a is getting charged very slowly even with 65w PD fast charger. It’s taking more than 3 hours for full charge. What to do? Complete waste of money.

Thanks,

Zaheer.

Zaheer_opYiYTOJN2 I’m facing the same and I contacted the nothing customer service and they said even if you use 65 watt this 2a has the capacity of 45 watt only. SO, for 5000 mah 45 is too weak to charge.

reinob

at the risk of stating the obvious.. you did not enable the “battery health” option did you? (“charge steadily overnight to preserve long-term battery health”) ← this will make it charge slower, and depending on what it considers to be “overnight” it may be affecting your charging times?

SushantSinha

Hi all, I have just bought the nothing phone 2a and bought a cmf for nothing 65 watt charger separately. Despite this being a fast charger, it takes almost 3 hours to fully charge the phone. As advertised, this should fully charge the phone in 1 hour. Is anybody else experiencing this issue and is there a fix?? Please advise.
