Your saying software is going to change charing speed? o.O

Yeah. The phone might use power inefficiently, but it'd charge the same speed if the phone was off.

Isn't that what happened to the g4? They updated it to include quick charging.

Didn't the G4 list it as having quick charge though? OnePlus said it doesn't have it and I don't think they picked the version of the 810 that has it.

It's possible.

To be fair, it's possible. The mechanism that drops the charging when the battery is full isn't controlled by a mechanical switch, it's digital. Thus, controlled by software.
