Quick Charge 3.0

Snapdragon 625 is capable of quick charge 3.0 but afaik from the kernel this feature is blocked/not implemented by xiaomi due to licensing cost for quick charge.

Now, with the source code being open, does that mean the there is a possibility that we can get quick charge 3.0 on custom kernel? :confused:

Phone is probably not suitable to handle that much power from QC 3.0.

Isn't the charging system part of the SoC package though? So all Snapdragon 625 devices will have the same charging system inside. The only thing that should be different in the Redmi 4 Prime from any other 625 device as far as charging goes is the battery.

For QC to work not only SOC, but charging connector, kernel and driver need to support that, as far as we know, no xiaomi kernel implement QC due to licensing problem with qualcomm, so dev need to implement them in custom kernel.

Take radon kernel for redmi note 3 pro as example, they only add QC support recently.

What are you basing this on? the chipset supports it, so it sounds like you're pulling this assumption out of either thin air or your ass.

Can't wait for the ROMs, LOS14.1, to arrive soon!

the chip supports doesn't mean the hardware circuits supports, same like mido:eek:

ya can fry your phones actually cause redmi note 3 doesn't have those fast charging circuits and a battery which supports
