Charging while much power consumption

It is really bad that it is not possible to do whatever I want on my phone while it's already plugged in. Will there be a way to increase charging current for example?

Normaly,
I underclock my kernel till 1.5 Ghz.
I still have no lag, and the charging goes better.

Maybe you can try it.
But underclocking needs root.

Yeah underclocking helps A LOT when charging and when you are just doing normal stuff.

Normally I never take my clockspeed over 1.6-1.7GHz(ondemand/interactive) because I really see no difference, the only time when I take it up to full speed is when I am playing Asphalt 8 because that game looks gorgeous and it needs power.

But you will need Root @chitose_ndy said.

Another thing to do is to see if your power outlet is fully functional, I had a problem 2 years ago where my power outlet was having some problems so it may cause problems if it is not functioning normally

I am currently using the charger that comes with the SGS4 and it is slightly better (experia Z1 charger comes with output 1.5 A while SGS4 charger has 2A output). However, Chargers with support to 2.0 quick charge (with output ~4A) will be released early 2014, till then there is nothing we can do to significantly increase charge speed.

underclocking would help for sure, but keep in mind that it won't increase charge speed but it will reduce power consumption.
