Charging a terminal device control method and apparatus

The present disclosure relates to a method of controlling the terminal apparatus charging method and apparatus. Said method comprising: charging the battery when the terminal device, determines whether the current charging the battery charging chip is switched to first wait for the second charge of the battery charging chip; if it is determined from the required charging a first charge chip is switched to the second chip, the first charging control device stops charging the battery, the second start charging the battery charging chip. The present disclosure may not have the technical solutions more heat in a first charging chip, the first chip is switched to the second charging to charge a battery charging chip, to avoid charging the first charging time is too long results in a higher chip heat, since the second charging chip continue charging the battery, it is not necessary to reduce the charging current of the second charging chip, thereby improving the charging efficiency of the charging of the chip.
