Fast Wireless Charging greyed out

Paul_Iddon — Mon, 07 Sep 2020 19:16:32 GMT

I have the Samsung official wireless charger EP-PG9201 and need to charge my S20 Ultra wirelessly until I can send my phone away to fix the charging port which (disgracefully!) has broken after 4 months.

But when I put the phone onto the charger, the Fast Wireless charging toggles off.

Any help to get this on please?

Paul.

@Paul_Iddon

Have you enabled it?

Settings> Device Care> Battery> settings> Fast Charging

@Paul_Iddon

Just checked on Samsung.com and it looks like you need the EP-P1100 for fast charging.

Yours appears to just be a standard QI charger.

Thanks MI5.

I'm annoyed the USB-C socket has failed after just 4 months... Means I have to send the phone away for a week to get it fixed or pay £29 just to charge it up quickly cos of the phone fault...

That would annoy me too @Paul_Iddon esp as USB C is generally more reliable.
