[Q] ANYONE out there where to get a new charging port cable? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

anyone out there know a place or website where i can get a new charging port flex cable that will actually work with out problems.
my original one didnt charge right unless i bent it backwards a little
i bought 3 off ebay and had problems with each
1st one off ebay had no sound
2nd one had no service
3rd one didnt charge at all.
the original one was a REV 1.0 connector and so were the others, so if anyone knows where to get one that will work with no problems let me know
THANK YOU

Don't know about OP, but I'm in the US, having the same issue. Went through 2 orders of 2 cables each from tmart, and sound doesn't work on any of them. I get a click when sound should start playing & nothing else.
I don't care to deal with ebay, due to shady sellers, limited return policy & price gouging ($36 for a flex cable? really?)

In UK, easiest place is amazon

That looks like a USB cable. Pretty sure OP is referring to a flex cable, which is also what I need. Looks like this.

I'm hoping that we see a charge station that uses the 4 dot connector on the side soon.
I brought one yesterday. Might be here before my N7.

I also found this on amazon UK for the same price. But idk weather its free shipping or not
but hey this looks too good to pass up
I saw that too but I don't think I want a dock that uses the micro usb, I think the risk of damaging the port is a worry, the micro usb port on my old HD2 is VERY dodgy after a couple of year of use, it also doesn't do any sort of audio output, which I know the Nexus 7 can do over usb, I am going to wait for one which uses the pogo pins and does audio out so I can just drop it in it to charge with no worry about the usb port and can plug it into my sound system.
Well I found one on amazon UK so maybe the other countries that have amazon will bring it in stock or ebay as well.

[Q] N7000 owner in the US needs non-warranty fix for USB port -- where do I go?

The Samsung website is remarkably difficult to decipher when it comes to this. I am fine with mailing my phone somewhere and waiting for a repair, and fine with being billed for the repair -- the USB port broke because I dropped it one too many times with the cable connected -- but I can't figure out who is supposed to take my money and fix the thing! Help?
there are these parts on ebay and other sites. and lots of tutorials on how to change it.

Wow. This never even occurred to me; I never imagined it would be user-replaceable. I guess this must be a fairly common problem.
eBay seems to have them only arrive in a month, Amazon doesn't seem to have them at all. Is there anyone who can deliver this week that you know of? I really don't know where to look for this kind of thing.
I'm sorry I am in a different continent and here in know local phone repair shops who can get it soon for me. Try them in ur area

That's because it is 3rd party. Just like when the iphone 5 first came out and apple didn't release the adapter for it, people got it on eBay from 3rd party retailers.

Guys I would be skeptical about this. It is just the cable so you are gonna use the same charger transformer so it is not gonna charge any faster and 26 bucks totals seems like a rip. Also is this just for charging or can it transfer data? I'm gonna wait.

Once the OEM POGO cable comes out it'll cost about the same price. I'd wager it costs a little more because it's an "official" part.
As far as charging speed, it's already been found that the N10 is only pulling somewhere between 1.5 and 1.8 amps out of a USB 2.0 cable, which is a limitation of the cable itself and not the transformer. The theory being passed around the forums is that the POGO cable doesn't have the same limitation and can draw the full 2 amps.
Either way, leave us to check it out if you're skeptical. We're not signing any organs away. We know what we're getting into.

Found the information in this thread. They did the research. Not sure if there's an app that can check power draw; is there?

Never seen an app for it.
The only accurate way is to use an external ammeter. You could get a rough number using a household energy monitor, but that would include current used by the power supply
There are a few electrical engineers around this board, someone with a decent lab psu could graph the charging process start to finish

I don't have one but am very interested in one. Where did you get yours for 35% off?
I have it. Sometimes the hdmi doesn't work. I have to take off and put back on. Otherwise its great. Not $100 worth so im glad I didn't pay full price, but very handy at work and home.
What does this dock do differently? I got a cheap dock on Amazon that works great for me.

It works just like plugging in a standard Micro usb cable into your phone. Option-wise that is.

The op posted about the smart dock. The thread is called smart dock. He said he got 35% off, and still hasn't told anyone how. People keep posting about chargers for some reason?

Easy there tiger.
A) This thread is a month old now
B) Have you ever seen a thread stay on topic?
C) >1% of the users of this phone really care about hdmi out. Just no real purpose other than the "oh that's cool factor"
The post I made gives it more than just a "charger" feature set. Which more than likely can be done with the holier-than-thou Smart Dock as well but you'd have to give up the audio port for it to work.

Wireless Charging issue (maybe bad charger?)

Not sure if there's something specific you need to do but I bought a brand new techmatte wireless charger. The reviews were all great and I got. From Amazon. I tried it with my g2 and nothing. No matter how much I adjusted it it wouldn't work. The charger lit up when plugged in the wall but the phone didn't charge and the charger didn't show that it recognized a phone on it. I already filed a return since I just got it today but if anyone has any ideas and it works I can cancel the return thanks.
Ps. There's a video on YouTube of it working with other phones so maybe my phone is the issue???

the last bit of advice I can think of for the time being is that the Qi receiver for the phone is on the lower half of the phone. Sometimes I have to position it just so until it registers. Best of luck other than that with your new charger.
If this is anything like the PowerBot Qi charger I got from Amazon, you need to use the supplied cable. I tried to use what I had plugged into my computer at the time and it didn't quite fit right and was very loose so it wouldn't properly power up my Qi charger.

I contacted them and they told me "it isn't compatible with the g2" and they have a different version called the techmatte pod or something like that that works on the g2, but that makes no sense considering qi charging is universal. I'm not sure if I wanna try buying that one or not

As far as I concerned, if it's truly a Qi charger it should work. Maybe you have a faulty unit and they don't have to eat the cost? I'd just return it and get another product. This is what I got:
http://www.amazon.com/PowerBot®-Ind...F8&qid=1398696518&sr=8-2&keywords=powerbot+qi
This works for my two LG G2 VS980 and my Galaxy Nexus 7 (2013). Make sure you use the supplied cable or you'll have a loose connection.
