I accidently broke my charging connector on my dear Samsung i780. Dropped it about 10cm on to the floor while charging. To bad. Now its not working and I have to charge the batteries outside the phone and swap battery all the time.
So I´m looking for a site that sells these connectors. Not wholesale, just want single item.
Any help appreciated.

I wanna give a heads-up about the 'Extended Battery Power Pack for Samsung Galaxy Note i9220' from ebay. (link: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayIS...sPageName=ADME:L:eek:C:US:3160#ht_2986wt_1165 )
The idea of the product is good. The build quality was kinda solid. I liked the feel of it attached to the phone. But when i tried to plug in the usb for the first time, it borke straight away and the little usb female host fell out of the case. I've mailed the seller about it. Waiting for an answer. Just a quick warning.. don't buy it.. just yet. It might work good when it stays complete, but i didn't got the chance to try.

I just received extended battery of the same kind but different brand "POWER BANK". It's no problem in charging but its power supplying time still suspicious and may need more recharge cycles to get its full performance.
It really looks great, good finishing and not so thick though it puts more weight on my hand. Some heat is generated during discharge to the phone.
The only really drawback would be the inability to pull out the S-Pen coz it blocks the bottom side of the phone. And the extra S-Pen with holder kit is only solution.

Noted and thanks. I am looking for a power bank from ebay as well.
I have the same unit as pictured above. When I got it several months back, I realized the MicroUSB adapter was very tight on all the cables I tried. Since, I have borked a USB port before accidentally apply too much force in the wrong manner when inserting a connector, I am usually very careful about the amount of pressure, angle and alignment when I am inserting connectors. I can see how someone could bork the connector like this, but it would also be end user error in my opinion.
It takes about forever and a day to charge both the battery bank and the internal phone battery via the usb port on my notebook. I have an HP Envy 17 3D with an actively cooled base that also has a powered 3 port USB3 hub on it. Using either the powered hub or any of the internal usb ports does not show a difference in the charging time. Charging from the Samsung charger from my Epic 4g Touch (Galaxy SII Family) appears to do it in less time as does the Motorola AC to MicroUSB charger seems to do it even faster.
The external battery takes a few cycles to get it to the point where it begins to show its full potential, being able to actively use the device while charging the battery. I only use it when necessary, which will increase once I have finally activated the note as a phone, I am porting service from Sprint to Straight Talk in the very immediate future.
Hey
i spilt water on my phone, a samsung galaxy nexus i9250 and i did the mistake of charging my phone after a few hours.
Now the phone doesn't charge at all. But everything else works perfectly without any problems. i have to remove the battery and charge it using a wall charger and put it back to use the phone.
i opened up the phone and found out that the IC socket on the main board which is used to connect the Charging Port Flex Ribbon and the connector of the ribbon is burnt.
i ordered the charging module off ebay, but its of no use if the socket on the motherboard itself is burnt. (6 pins of the socket soldered on the motherboard)
I just wanted to know if its fixable and if it can be fixed, can someone tell me where i can get the part.
I live in india where the phone wasnt released.
Thanks in advance

Hello.
I bought an used Nexus 5 recently, but it has extremely long charging time (5 hours) with included charger (LG MCS-02ED with 850mA power output). The charger seem to be dying, since it gives c.a. half of the output of my second Motorola 850mA charger, that charges the phone in c.a. 2,5 hour. I also guess that MCS-02ED is not the charger that is originally shipped with Nexus 5, right?
So I am looking for a replacement and I found the mcs-04er on aliexpress for US $6.80 (can't post link as a new user, but there are only two auctions there and only one with that price, from edre international trade co . , ltd ).
Any chances that it is really genuine and won't fry my phone? I prefer to buy LG branded charger, in case of warranty repair.
Regards
Michael
Ask yourself... is anything from china genuine?
Why don't you buy any of the those genuine micro usb chargers. You can try searching for Blackberry Folding Blade charger as well. Go for it in case you're able to find one.
Or just get this one http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/0...er-for-just-7-99-8-off-with-coupon-on-amazon/
Hey !
Thanks for answers.
peachpuff, I generally agree, although considering that genuine chargers are sold with similar prices in USA I hoped that this charger could be genuine for almost 7 USD. I am from Poland (didn't mention it, sorry), so shipping cost from from USA are too high (for a charger), that's why I was searching aliexpress (low or no postage cost).
I am looking for LG chargers, because in case of warranty repair I am affraid, I will have problem, if I don't return phone with original LG charger.
Lg g4 1.8a charger (mcs-04ed) teardown
I want make new thread but I was not able because my posts is less than ten
my charger cable is not good (OEM) and my phone(G4) charge with this slowly and i found a shot length power bank cable that can charge my phone from0-100% only in 98 min(01:38).
after 30 min the charger and cable ( usb A side) heat and after several time it made a bad smell(overheated PCB smell) and I decide to open charger.
the problem was from output schottky diode and it was warmed and burnt pcb(fiber glass)
but the charger had not any problem so I add some flux and re solder this part and I wash PCB with acetone
but unfortunately when I assembled charger for test it was a little wet and it exploded .
two sr4,sr5 resistor and fusible resistor and mosfet are damaged
and also i cant attach image
Mob came with charger made in china by dogee or dongdee not sure about model, my suggestion don't go for lg chargers they are mostly cheap copies rather you should buy form some quality brand like remax which offers great quality in comparatively less price

I bought this one a couple of weeks ago, it charges at 1700mAh easily (net). It's able to charge up to 3 iPads at full speed (I've tested 1 iPad, my nexus and a samsung, it worked).
I have been browsing the web when suddenly my apps shut down and I got this message. This happened twice. What's going on?
Here are some screenshots
Maybe find the offending app?
Try booting in safe mode.
The same thing happens in safe mode. I suspect it has more to do with the fact that I recently opened the back cover to replace the USB connector and left speaker. Maybe I have disturbed contacts or some cooling components on the mainboard.

Did you disturb the heat sink on the cpu?If you did you will need some heat sink compound to mount it properly to the heat sink.
I run geekbench with the cover open and as the tablet was heating up I touched the backs of all mainboard parts and it appears that the part that gets hot is where the USB charger cable plugs into it. So I am guessing that this is related to the incident when I apparently "fried" the USB charger by plugging it into a malfunctioning USB hub. I changed the USB charger and its connector, but I guess this did not help.
I could change the mainboard if I could find one cheap. Gosh, those things are expensive. I see vendors selling them on ebay for well above 100USD, a surprising price for a three year old, used part. Those that are cheaper are sold already defective. For comparison, the mainboards of Samsung Galaxy S5 phone, which was a 2014 device of comparable performance are sold for just 30 bucks.

try to resolder the USB connector, if there is bad joint, that could cause a larger than expected resistance on the 5v or 0v return, this will act as a heating element at the solder joint.
In normal operation there can be up to 2A flowing through that connector, it will heat +10 degree even when functioning correctly, any extra resistance at that point is dangerous since its almost maxed out on thermal dissapation anyway.

Actually there's no need to change mainboard. This is a common problem of Samsung tablets when battery connector has cracked solder joints.
This is an example
Anyone knows how to solder can do it within 5 minutes
This is an example for a Tab 3, but similar to any Samsung tablets, most use the same battery connector
I fix mine and other tablets having problem of quick discharge, charging or overheating just by resolder the battery connector.
I just picked up an allegedly working T800 with 32GB board (!!) and a cracked screen for only 89 bucks on ebay. Considering my mad soldering skillz, I probably would need to have a backup board anyways, plus I could use this tablet for other spare parts, like the battery. The attachment shows precisely the area that seems to get hot to touch.
so would 50c for the cpu and battery be normal for this tablet? (was running a game)
?my was boost on 1600Mhz 81°C all the time
I bought this UE boom at a pawn shop for $10! Sweet deal right? It's in good condition. It won't hold a charge and has to remain plugged in to use. Ok, no problem, buy a battery, open the thing up and immediately notice that one of the wings on the PCB is damaged.
Now the question....
What goes there!? Is it a resistor? I can't find any clear pictures or info about the damn thing.
Please help.
