Bypass Charging feature outside of asus rog phones

ClassicNoob

Can the bypass charging feature be added to other phones or does it need specific hardware?

I imagine it needs specific hardware + has to be enabled by the OEM, given it was enabled on ROG phones themselves by a firmware update from ASUS.

what di you mean with "bypass charging"? That if it is plugged in, it'll just run off wall power and not charge the battery? Samsung kinda has that with their battery saving mode. IT limits the max charging capacity to 85% and if you keep it plugged in, it's just gonna run on wall power until you unplug it

Hey guys thanks for the replies.

So I have a redmi note 4 rooted with magisk and I have a module installed call Advanced Charge Controller and it has a function called battery idle mode which is what I want.  I was unaware of what that option did before, even though I have been using the module for quite a long time.

But it need the kernel to support it and mine don't and I tried installing a different kernel but to no effect.  I don't know how to find the right kernel if there are any.

I got my info from an xda forum: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/battery-idle-mode-bypass-charging.4168395/

its does just what DreamCat figured.
