Hi,
I'm currently looking for a new phone. I find the Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 Edge very interesting en beautiful devices, but I have one question where I cannot find an answer for through Google. With my current phone (Galaxy S3), after a few months the charging was going very slow. I know it is a common problem for a lot of phones. The solutions provided by internet: get a high quality adapter/cable, turn the device off while charging, use a battery saver app etc. etc.) are not reliable and/or expensive solutions. I see a little improvement if I use another cable/adapter but the only good permanent fix I had for this issue is using the boeffla kernel with a parandroid ROM. In this kernel I can configure a fixed charge current en I can ignore unstable power (so the phone doesn't negotiate with the poweradapter about how much current it takes, the phone takes just the current I set). I know it could probably damage the poweradapter/phone battery, but I'm willing tot take this risk when I can charge my device always quick, no matther where I charge my phone and with what cable/adapter.
Back to the S7 (Edge). If I google for "slow charging S7" I see lots of people that have problems with charging, simaler as I discribed above about my Galaxy S3. I know the Galaxy S7 (Edge) has quickcharge 2.0 support, but that only works with quickcharge enabled poweradapters. And for example, if I need to charge the phone in my car or with my powerbank (that doesn't support quickcharge), and probably even after a few months with the standard cable/poweradapter that comes with the device, I'm afraid charging wil go very slow again.
So my question is: Is there an solution to set also a fixed charging current for the Galaxy S7 / Galaxy S7 Edge? I'm planning to root my phone and I'm probably going to install a custom ROM, so I don't mind installing a custom ROM/kernel as long as it's stable. ;)
Regards,
