My phone is only 3% charged and is on the charger. How long will it take for the firmware update?

Android Central Question

At such low % of battery will my phone still update?

Welcome to Android Central! Some devices will tell you specifically what battery level it requires in order to do a system update -- I recall about 30%.

I've seen some require an 80% charge.

But yes, it's very unwise to even attempt an update at 3%, and worse yet to keep running the battery that low in the first place.
