I've used Nokia's usb-chargers without any problem. USB is a industry standard, so it should not be a problem to use any make of usb-chargers.
Yes me too. If you look its a french version hence no original charger of the phone buy look at the box, thats why we have different chargers. I contacted them about this and there didnt seem to care that I ordered a HTC and received a motorola charger!!!!
As long as the voltage is the same and the mah is not over the max (1A) it's fine. Perhaps even higher amp chargers might work if it's the phone that controls the input. But 1A max just to be sure imho
Current does not matter, min 1A for fast charge, it is the voltage 5 VDC that counts. The phone internal battery charging circuit takes care of the current limitation.
mase they will send u 1 u w8 n c! bet one turns up at ur house in the NX week I didn't ask 4it it just turned up2day... ah well 1 4 in the office then

I charge mine with my dad's LG Optimus One P500 charger if I forget mine.
If you have any of those phones, just twist the phone cable and put it in.
It works vice versa too.
USB is a standard voltage. You will be fine. There's essentially no difference between both the adapters you have.

USB is 5V and will carge fine anywhere from 500mA (standard computer USB port) to 2-3A (most wall and car chargers). I have only once seen a USB wall charger that violated this, it was 6V and came with a AA battery charger. you'll be fine with the ipad one.
I use a trust and ipod chrager, no problem since now!
any voltage up to 6V should be alright, the phone regulates it down to 5V automatically (though more heat is generated). the problems occur the other way where the charger doesn't have enough voltage (ex. my tablet requires 5.3V to charge normally, on 5.1 it takes a few days, and 5.0 it continues to drain the battery)

if you have 5v and 1Ah you can use it without any damge to battery if it's 1Ah+ it will charge your phone fatser but it will overheat phone. if it 1Ah- it will charge slow and after long using wont charge it till 100%
Chargers are so cheap on e-bay.... I usually get all my accessories there!

Hi
I have a few other normal micro USB cables and when I try to use them with the standard HTC plug, the phone shows its charging but the percentage never goes up. In fact it drains even though it says its charging. Why is this? I've tried two new cables with the official wall charger but I get the same. I really want to be able to use a longer cable.
Any ideas? If it helps I'm running Franco r11 kernel.

I charge mine with a nokia cable which came with e7.no problem here.
all cables are the same, unless they are "charge only" cables (I got one like this for my Nvidia glasses)
it will not drain more than 500mA from USB. But the charging logic is acting weird sometimes so I think you just saw it glitching with other cable and not with the original one. It will drain with both if you use it in the meantime, try it.
Hmmm. I got the battery widget app which shows + mv when charged with the official HTC cable. When I plug in the other two miscellaneous cables the discharge rate is negative under the same conditions. Maybe its the kernel?

My phone currently charges with different USB cables.
I have a blackberry short cable (for when I'm at client sites) and I use my old SE cables to charge and even do file transfers..
Have you ran the charger test in the HTC Phone Diagnostics??
From my experience this phone is picky as hell when it comes to what charger it wants you to use. I ended up using the one it comes with. It charges the fastest.
Go to the play store and download battery monitor widget. Its really helpful! Shows you how fast it drains the temperature all in graphs.
My one x will not charge with a car charger for some reason. Even with original charger fine with usb from pc or mains charger.

I get the your phone is using more power than charge etc. Two cables from eBay and the same thing. Such a pain! I wanted a longer charger

Its got nothing to do with the micro usb cables, there has been another power management update that was released last week, so HTC have told me, as mine sometimes doesnt charge more than 23%-29%, but when rebooted it goes to 63% and sometimes takes 12 hours for a simple charge, but was told it can take up to 4 weeks for the networks to distribute it. Im waiting for it too as my software is still on 1.28.771.9.
Im on 3 uk so it will probably never happen, but im currently in dispute with them because of faulty phone.
Hi I'm having the same problem with a longer USB cable.
I have a 3 meter cable from ebay which I've been using to charge my Desire HD for the past year without a problem.
When I tried this with my new One X it will not charge. The charge light is on but battery level decreases. I've left the phone sitting with the screen off for a while, but no charge.
When I tried it with the USB cable that came with the phone it charges fine, even whilst using the phone, with the same wall charger plug.
I've tried it with the wall charger plug that came with the One X and the one that came with the Desire HD, both same results:
Desire HD charges with both short USB and long USB cable.
One X will only charge with the short USB cable.
Is there a quality difference in the cables, or maybe a length restriction?
My One X is running Stock Android 4.0.3 (1.29.206.11)

I've just bought another 3 meter micro USB cable of higher quality, this one stated it would work with HTC One series phones. This cable charges my phone perfectly. The software on my phone hasn't changed from above.
Somehow it seems the One X, and maybe all other One series phones, are particularly sensitive to the type of USB cable? I didn't realise this could be an issue!
weird. i would have thought it was the increased resistance in the cable that was making it charge slower/drain
maybe its literally the quality of the cable, better materials, equals lesser resistance over a longer distance, therefore why the new cable will work and the other doesn't?
hi everybody, i readed the words under the speaker on the back cover of HOX and there is written that for charging it needs 5mAh and 1A, but usb is 0.5A if i'm not wrong, is it means that it will charge much time from usb than from the wall?
Everything in the world charges faster from the wall, so you are correct.

also it depends on the adapter you used if u used an ipad adapter for example it charges faster coz mah is bigger but do not take risk playing wif other adapters... original is just fine...

Get a tablet charger. Max voltage moto g can support is 1.5. Which I couldn't find a exact charger. So I got a 2a charger. It reduces it to 1.5.
It charges very fast.

That's odd. Based on Motorola's saying and calculation your charger voltage must be limited to 1.5a and it must be charging your battery in less than 2 hour. Which I'm experiencing now.

Hello,
I´m buying the Moto G and Moto E (one for me, one for GF), and we would like to buy this bundle for wall and car charger:
http://www.amazon.com/Bundle-Monster-Charger-Samsung-Products/dp/B00F045IN0
output says 5V=3.1A... is it too much?
Intensity (A) can never be too high. The phone will take what it needs
Voltage (V) on the contrary needs to be 5V. More than 5V can kill your phone.
But the Moto G wont load with more than 1,5 A (with a 3A charger you wont load faster as a 2A charger). I bought a Ravpower charger (4 Port, 2x 2,1 A, 2x 1A) and im really happy with it. It feels very nice and dont get hot/warm

Concur!
If your charger is getting hot, it means the phone is trying to take more current than the charger is capable of delivering. I.e., your phone requires 1 amp and the charger is only capable of producing .5 amps (500 ma), then it will get hot.
You can have a 20 amp charger @ 5 volts and the phone will only take what it needs to charge. A tablet charger is usually 2 amps and that should work just fine. Any charger that will deliver 5 vdc @ 1 amp or higher will work. I would try and find an OEM to some manufacture such as Samsung, LG, Apple, even Motorola (any charger that they provide for their other phones) are better than third party. But don't forget that it is possible that the third party charger you purchase could very well be the manufacture for the OEM chargers.
I do not have my XT1045 yet but when I get it I will use my Samsung Tablet charger. I am using that charger to charge my iPhone 3GS.
So in summary, 5vdc @ 1 amp or greater should work.
I use my old standart HTC chager model: TC E250 (5V, 1A) which I got with HTC One V.
It works great with the MotoG. Charges in less than a couple of hours, doesn't overheat.
Just thought I should share this here.

Ik that but, seriously, is that the cost of unabling to charge my phone? Rite now, i have some juice left cos I managed to somehow use stock samsung usb cable and Apple adapter to charge my phone.
Upon plugging the cable to my device, i had to forcefully use my index finger to push the front part to the left side. THEN it started charging. Currently, im using PA and battery is good so far. Speaking of battery, this battery i bought is abt 4-6 months old now.

Don't use other charger ..
Take a look on (name plate) of adapter and output current, I am sure it is different from Samsung charger ..
More current more heat and decrease life of battery ..

Samsung charger outputs 0.5A power compared to Xiaomi and Apple charger head (which I've been using) that uses 1A output.
I heard the more current the faster it charges batteries. Ive been using those 1A charger the whole of my life.
Currently, i have to use Samsung USB cable and Apple's charger head to charge this phone up. Others won't work apparently. All i get is charging, then discharging, vice versa
I dismantled the phone also to see what might be the problem. Below the microusb slot on the pcb mainboard, theres abt 4-6 lines. It looks like small metal wire that doesnt move. But for some reason 1 of the lines were somewhat bronze or dark brown in colour. Any ideas?
Sent from my GT-I8150 using XDA Free mobile app
The same reason
Be sure this chip made for 0.5A not 1A which will cause that browny wire (more heated)
You should fix it or replace the chip
samsung charger output is 5v 0.7a.
one guy use 12v 1a, he got problem with charging his phone.
burnt chip due to over amp charging.
Ah! Nice explanation both of you. Currently, i dont have stock Samsung charger cos it broke annoyingly. Is there any alternatives? Is USB charging ola
