I hope a firmware update can speed up charging.

Does anyone else notice how long it takes to recharge? Mine has been plugged into the computer for 2 hours and only recharged about 25% so far. Has been locked for 97% of the time.

Sounds like you need to get your device/battery replaced. I've had mine charging for the past 20 minutes from completely drained and it's at 18%. Charging is super fast compared to my Focus which took like 4 hours for a full charge.

How long does it take with the wall chargers?

Perhaps the computer doesn't pass enough power to charge it properly? You should try a wall and see if its any different.

I haven't tried charging it by USB but with the wall charger mine charges from 10 to 100 percent in about 3-4 hours tops.

How long have you guys had your phones? I have 2 Focuses and the first week my wife and I received ours, it took at least 2 hours to fully charge. Now it only takes about an hour. I think it just needs to go through about a weeks worth of charging cycles.

Isn't it pretty obvious that a phone is going to charge slower over USB compared to a wall charger. Most USB ports are passing a fraction of the current of a wall charger.

A computer is the worst place to charge and electronic device. Use the wall charger that came with your titan and you'll notice a big difference.

Just got to 100% now. Took 4.5 hours to charge 85% of the battery over USB. Never took that long for my iPhone. Must be different USB power usage in the firmware of the phones. As I said, the titan was not syncing or being used the whole time. I will try it from the wall next time and see how long it takes. Just an observation, nothing more. If the wall does it much faster, then I will just use that method in the future.

The USB can only supply 500mA where as wall charger does it at 850 mA I believe..

I think 500mA is the maximum. If you have other USB devices I think it limits the draw to less than 500mA.

Went from 0 to 100% charge in about 2.5 hours using the wall charger. This was about the 3rd time I've charged, but the first time from 0 (I ran the battery totally down on purpose)

The wall charger is has a 1A output so it should be decent. 2.5 hours sounds alright. I have no idea how long mine takes to charge because I give it all night.
