how long to take your battery to charge up?

[Jude526]

I let the battery drop to battery power saver alert notifying me. .
I plugged it in at 9:50 p.m. and it was fully charged by 11:55 p.m. Not rooted. Stock battery

Not talking about how long the battery stayed charged during the day. Only discussing how long it takes to charge up.

That's decent I think ! How long for your Thunderbolt to charge?

Aprox. 2.5 hours std battery.

Aprox. 4.0 hours extended one.

About the same for me when plugged into the wall. When using USB plugged directly into the computer, I think the phone uses more juice than it charges .

I have a rapid charger that came with my BB PlayBook that I use and it charges a lot faster. Car chargers are faster as well.

MIne usually takes longer because while it is charging I am messing with it and texting. I have the docking station that I plug it in when I go to bed and let it charge. I have a car charger and I also have a charger at work....so, I am usually fully charged. I do let mine drain about once a month to condition it.

If I don't mess with my phone while charging, I think I am about 2.5 - 3 hours. I do notice though if I use my sons SAMSUNG Charger, it take a lot longer. My guess is that because it isn't rated for my Thunderbolt!...only use it in emergencies....or I am lazy to get up and get my charger....LOLOL

It all depends on the milliamps the charger has.

Car chargers will rapidly charge up the phone. I don't keep it on continually though. Once the phone is charged I remove it. Car chargers don't have a memory sensor in them. Can cause overcharging.
I sold wireless 3 years ago and had seen where car chargers over used could ruin batteries. Had customers actually needing to replace the batteries back then. I don't know if car chargers have improved since then. This may sound stupid to some of you, but this is what I was taught when I sold wireless.
Our wall chargers that come with the phones have a memory sensor. It will stop charging when the phone has reached its full charge.
