In need of a usb cable! Please help - HD7 Accessories

Hi a friend of mine gave me his htc hd7 phone (tmob) because he changed to att. The thing is he said he lost the usb cable and only has a wall charger to charge his phone.
so now i have to buy a usb cable online but I'm not sure which to buy. There are a few I've seen on amazon but are not oem. Hopefully I dont have to spend any more than $15 max... Can anyone post links to where I can buy a a oem cable or at least a stable usb cable for my hd7?
Thanks a lot

Any Micro-USB to USB cable will do mate. I wouldn't pay more than a couple of $$/££

You can get one from the Dollar Store

samsung and some other 3rd party providers offer the data sync cable for 19.00 usd...that's the cheapest i've found..and none of the olympia, wa carriers have any accessories except the hard leather case, the silicone case and the screen protector.
I bought a 2port usb car adapter that works well and now going to buy from samsung the cord.
I know once people get the proper pinout's ...sites like fommy or cellphoneshop will have them for like 4.99 or cheaper...
i love my tab..but for christ sake...where are all the friggen accessories?...*sigh*
You'll definitely need a real cable, and a charger capable of 2Amp output, or it probably won't charge properly.
I'm using a 1 amp charger from my Garminfone and it works fine (60% to full charge in 1.5hrs)
I also tried a 2 amp Iluv usb charger but it went into usb mode (pc connection mode) and did not seem to charge??
Cable and accessories are expensive!! I bought a data/charge cable from Aliexpress for $6.50. Should have it in about a week. Will let you know if it works. Paid with Paypal so I'm protected.

When i connect my tab to a usb-hub with 3,8amp it does not charge at all, it even continues to discharge. the hub is a 7port belkin with a 3,8amp power supply.

That's because when you plug it into a computer, it negotiates for power with the usb controller. You can see how much power it is getting by looking in the device manager under the usb hub. Most devices can only get 500 mA from a computer usb port.

Its not a computer, its a external belkin 7-port usb-hub with a 3,8amp power-supply.
No computer is connected.
A hub shouldn't really supply power at all without a computer connected to it, it probably defaults to whatever the lowest power setting is. Just because a hub uses a 3.2A power cable doesn't mean every single usb port will have that, it's sharing that power with all of them.
No its not the hub, its the samsung charger thats wired differently.
I just modified a usb-extension cable and now the tab charges from my hub and my laptop.
The changes you need to make to the cable have already been described here.

Also, you dont need 2A.
The samsung charger is charging with 1,5A only because it has 5,4V.
With 5V you will have only 1amp, so no need to buy a 2A charger/battery.
And yes it just jumped up 1% charging from my laptops's usb port while the tab was running.

Just to confirm, the DX cable both charges and syncs properly? I only ask as I had some bad experiences with ipod cables/docks from DX so I wanted to be sure before ordering.
If you need any other items why not go to the t-mobile store? Two items gets you 20% off,three items gets you 30%. They have lanyards for 5 bucks. Get with a friend and split the sale getting you the discounts.

Charger

I was wondering if anyone had a extra charger for this phone I really want to install a custom rom into it but I don't have any chargers that fit

Actually you don't even need a charger, just plug it to a pc or something that has a usb port. It's easier to find the cable than a charger and i am pretty sure that you already have a mini usb cable
Yes I have it,I buyed it on ebay about 1 year ago and it works fine!
I have a non original battery of 1800mAh and the charger works on both my batteries.
Search on ebay you will find it,I paid it less than 3 euro

Need nook color charger..

Hello all , recently my usb cable broke and i dont want to pay $26 for one. Ive called b&n but my nc isnt on warranty anymore so i cant get a replacement ive looked on ebay but wasnt to convinced. Has any of you bought a cheap one that really works or is willing to sell one pls let me know.. thank you..

Search ADP-H01. Due to the same proprietary nature of the NC's charging cable that causes it to break so easily in the first place, about $20 is the best you are gonna get from any seller you can trust.
Hi, nook color cables on eBay. Around $7 and free shipping.

I have tried two cheap off brand cables that advertised they were designed for the nook color. They were simply microUSB cables and charged but very slowly. I bought the bullet and get an authentic one from B&N and now it charges so much faster.
Just bought one of these on ebay for $3.63, free shipping. Will give a report on its performance when it arrives.

Sorry to burst your bubble before it comes, but there's one things on the page that is a dead giveaway of it's authenticity:
Compatible With
Amazon: Kindle 2, Kindle 3 / Wi-Fi / 3G + Wi-Fi, Kindle DX
Barnes & Noble: Nook, Nook Color
BlackBerry: etc...

If it's compatible with ALL of these, then it's only a micro usb cable, not the proprietary one shipped with the Nook Color.

It isn't a generic USB cable, as it has a transformer on the micro USB end and says it's a dual USB / charger cable. It probably won't charge as fast as the OEM cable, but it's better than nothing.

Cables cable cables

I'm in the market for a new cable to charge my Note but there is so many in the market that i'm quite confused.
I know that the Note uses a micro usb to usb wire. I'm using a 1.8m cable that i
got when i bought a kindle and i am looking to purchase one at the same length
as the kindle wire is peeling near the connection point , and it is quite un sightly...
http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-...id=1344947903&sr=1-4&keywords=micro+usb+cable
This would work right? It is named micro b instead of micro usb though. .

Any reason you can say why it is not ideal to use USB cable to power a phone ?
I have been using USB cable most of the time to charge my phone from laptop. I was under the impression that slow charge is always good for batteries.
Please explain
I believe it would be because he has read the product description. It doesn't state that it shouldn't be used for charging, but just to make sure that your device can take the amperage of the cable. This cable is specified for use with Continually connecting devices (eg printers, HDD etc), and not for charging. The Link below can be purchased in a 2m Length (slightly longer).

Thanks all.
Found out that amazon doesn't ship to singapore. Have decided to purchase from gmarket although refunds are harder.
The seller is here: http://list.qoo10.sg/item/FREE-GIFTS-SAMSUNG-GALAXY-S3-CASES/405902986
And to those saying that other wires apard from the one given by samsung.
I have been using the kindle one since i bought my note. And it is still going
strong. Apart from the ics brick bug that got repaired by warranty.
Also by the time it really starts to show that your battery is spoilt. Your plan
with whatever telco should have expired and you are entitled to a cheaper phone
with renewal. Live free guys

OEM adapter + OEM cable needed

Hy! I am new to this forum. I just bought a nexus 7 about a month ago and i lost my charging adapter+cable. i've tried different aftermarket adapter with 2A, even an apple ipad adapter from my friend which has 2,4A, but the charging time is enormous-> up to 10 hours. The oem adapter+cable was charging my nexus 7 in about 3 hours. i looked everywhere on the internet to buy an orginal one but i did not find. Does anyone have an oem adapter+oem cable for sell ? I need an European adapter.

I know this doesn't help too much but I just saw one in Walmart here in the US. I would think that if there is a store that sells the N7 it might just have the AC adapter to sell.
Thanks but i need an european adapter. I could use an usa one but i think i need a transformer to convert the power.

OEM adaptor works both under 110 volts (USA) and 220 volts (EU)
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
Asus shop has EU adapter and cable: 100-240V, 0.3A to 5.0V/2A,10W and cable 0.9 meters long for 99 PLN ( ~ 24 €) + shipping costs.
You must have valid credit card to make order. I don't know from which country are you, and if there is an asus shop for your country.
I need a *durable* Nexus 7 charger cable that will not break!
I bought two of the 26 awg monoprice 6' cables recommended on this forum, they def carry over 500 mAh for fast charging and were cheap direct as opposed to amazon, like $1.50 each vs $6 on amazon.
But after a couple weeks, they only charge when the cable is bent the right way near the micro USB port. Same thing with the Asus cable that came with the Nexus 7.
What gives, is it something wrong with the Nexus 7 micro USB port, and not with the cables?
