Here are the main culprits and what you can do about them. The first offender in any case of slow charging should always be your USB cable. Just take a look at it: guilty as hell. Considering the awful treatment my USB cables undergo, it's no wonder that it is usually why my phone won't charge faster. USB cables get bent, twisted, coiled, run over with chair wheels and generally abused: all of these are not very good for maintaining a solid connection and flow-through of power.

Be sure to check the ends too: they can very easily get full of fluff. Cables aren't immune to physical wear and tear and the USB connector itself also gets worn and can feel loose when you plug in your phone. If the cable that came packaged with your device isn't reliable anymore or you've simply lost it, beware of buying the cheapest charging options online.

Higher quality cables have copper wire some cheapos use aluminum and other substitutes that don't hold up as well and thicker rubber enamel around the wire, making it more resistant to damage. The next obvious question is where are you getting your power from? If you have a USB cable plugged into your laptop then your phone is going to charge insanely slowly and you'll deserve it. While Qi is a brilliant technology, that brilliance comes at the cost of speed. Your best bet is to have your phone plugged directly into mains power at the wall socket.

However, even this can be problematic, especially if you're in an old building where the wiring might be a little sketchy. If you think this could be the problem, move to another outlet and then call an electrician. To complete the trifecta, if it's not your power source or your cable, chances are that it's the actual adapter you're using that is causing your battery to charge slowly. There's a reason every manufacturer provides a specific USB adapter for each phone they ship.

Switching adapters between phones can mix-match voltage, wattage, amperage and so on. If you have a wireless connection, that's not a smart use of your data plan. To avoid that problem, I'll walk you through the process of fixing both issues. I'll demonstrate this on a OnePlus 3 running Android 6.

Every so often, a wireless network DNS does your Android device no favors. The problem lies in the fact that you don't always have access to the necessary information to change DNS on a per-network basis.

There's a way to get around that. By default, Android does not allow you to set global DNS. You can solve this issue by using a handy app called DNS Changer , which allows you to easily switch your DNS to one of the following:. Read before installing DNS Changer: The developers have gone a rather distasteful route and require users to rate the app before being able to use it continuously I think it pops up after five minutes of usage.

They insist you must give them a five-star rating in order to continue using the app, but you do not--rate the app as you see fit to continue using the app. Also, the ads in the app can get annoying; the good news is you won't have the app open long enough to be bothered by those apps.

To install DNS Changer, follow these steps. Note: If you're experiencing the slow install issue, turn off Wi-Fi before following these steps.
