Anyone tried 830 with Quick Change 2.0 charger?

[ylap]

Hello, I know S400 supports Quick Charge 2.0 natively. But there is no word Lumia 830 supports it. So has anyone tried to charge it with Quick Charge 2.0 charger? Is there any difference in time or it charges at standard 5V 2.1 A instead of faster option?

a good question that I have yet to find the answer to.

I will find it too. My Quick Charge 2.0 certified charger is on it's way, so I will keep you updated

I don't think Qualcomm's Quick Charge 2.0 works at this time for the Lumia 830. Here is why:
I drained the battery to 25% and tried both an Aukey and Anker brand chargers, neither reported the fast-charge rate.
Perhaps a Qualcomm update will enable the chip to recognize higher voltage of the 2.0?
Somewhere, I had read that the 2.0 feature was to be enabled at the choice of the cell phone manufacturer.

I just picked up 3 of the Aukey chargers and they work great on our 920's versus the generic 2.0A chargers that are designed for iOS devices and only charge at .44-.5A for Windows Phones. I was measuring 1.2-1.3A with our 920's. Definitely worth the $8 on special from Amazon for the 3-port version.

My son just got an 830 replacement for his 920 so I'll try to measure it and report back.
