Slow Charging time on Pixel 2 XL

[sampathkumar2811]

After September update, my P2 XL is not charging beyond 98 (sometimes 99). Going to 100 if I power off after 98.
The issue not fixed till November update. So I have flashed fully with November update and now my mobile is charging fully (100%).
But the issue is the time taken for charging 100%.
0-1 hrs -> around 75%
1-2hrs -> around 96%
2- 2.5hrs -> 100%
For 100% , it is taking 2.5 hours (verified in safe mode also)

Update 1 - I have fully flashed with Android Oreo 8.1 July images and the mobile is taking 2 hours to charge fully.
0-1 hrs -> 82%
1-2 hrs -> 100%

Please share the full charging time with November update.
I have warranty but still it will take atleast 10 days for the service. So wanted to confirm if it is a software issue.
I have used stock adapter and cable.

I don't know about 2 hours taking 0-100% (I've never seen anyone claim that and never experienced it) because it's all ways been minimum 2 hours and 20 minutes for me. And when the phone first came out it was close to 3 hours. I have lots of screenshots showing this.

0-60 minutes has always been about 75% gained when starting around 5%. That last 25% to get to 100% always takes an hour and 20 minutes or so to do. That's why it's best to do only a top off charge of 60 minutes max if you need to during the day. Anything more is just a waste of time.

@sampathkumar2811 I have been dealing with a similar issue that I suspect started after I updated to Pie.
I remember full charge took around 2.45 hours until the October update and after November update I timed my full charge cycle with the stock cable and charger once and it was around 2.30 hours from 15% to 100% (charging status shown as "full" and not "charging"in the battery settings). So it's either something from my end or Google f*cked something up for us recently.
Anyways, 2.30 is close enough to what other users such as @EeZeEpEe are getting and that's good enough for me, I guess.

Ho, but what's the best way to charge or pixel 2 xl? Original charger with power delivery or an old charger with slow charge?

I do overnight slow charging with a USB-A to USB-C cable using a Samsung charging brick. If I need a top off, I use the stock charger or the charger from my 5X for an hour.

Sorry to (slightly) hijack the thread, but I have a slightly different charging issue and would love some advice. Nine times out of ten, I plug my 2XL into my Google charger and all is good - it'll say 'charging rapidly' and a minute or so later will give me the anticipated 'charging to complete' time and all is fine.

But around ten percent of the time it says 'charging rapidly' and the 'charging to complete' time DOESN'T come up and the phone trickle charges. Pretty much nothing happens. I've purchased a new Google charger and switched charging locations and checked that the location is warm and... it still happens.

I love my phone and in every other way it is perfect, so I'm not keen to send it in to be replaced. Can anyone suggest a fix, please? It's driving me crazy!

Thank you!

I've come to the forum because I wanted to ask for help, but seems that I'm not the only one.

Since I updated to november patch, charging is ssssllllllllloooooooooowwwwaaa (pronounce very slowly). It might be because the climate here is getting colder because of autumn/winter and my phone is actually cold when I hold it. Estimated time of charge: 4 to 5 hours. I thought this problem was solved in an older patch. Anyone knows whats going on? :|

I would go for the swap. Might be refurbished but at least it'll be a new battery. I've never had that or seen that issue.

This issue sounds familiar. I think it does charge better and faster if it's warmed up. It's cold indoors while your charging it? If so, what temperature? I would think it would have to be refrigerator temperature to get it to not charge quickly. Last winter I would charge it on a cold countertop and it did fine. Of course, being in Florida, the coldest indoor temperature I would get is in the upper 60s.
