I would like to find a good cheap wall charger that does not freak the screen out when I plug it in. I would preferably like to have something that charges as good as or is an original.
Ebay and Amazon if they have them would be great.
Thanks.

what are some cheapo accessories to buy on eBay? Shoot!
Let's see, there's a wide variety out there. I use tons of these micro USB retractable cables:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...12124&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_3908wt_1002
I've got them at home, in the garage, in the car, at the office, etc. just about anywhere I could possibly need to connect / charge my evo. Over the years I've accumulated plenty of USB wall /or car chargers, the kind that just plug into the wall and have a USB port sticking out, so with the retractable cable I'm good to charge no matter where I am.
I picked up some super-cheap screen protectors there as well, but that was too long ago to get the link from my transaction. I think they were something like 5 protectors for $3. the protector I have on now has lasted 3 months and it's about ready to be replaced, so it's not the best screen protector I've seen, but at that price who cares?
over the years I've had hit/and miss on spare batteries on ebay, but sometimes the prices are so low it's worth the risk.
And last but not least, do not, under any circumstances, buy cheap micro sd cards on ebay. Trust me on that one! You probably knew that already, but it bears repeating.
also check out www.meritline.com. They've got everything from flash memory to chargers and cables, blank DVDs, flashlights, and even lingerie and wedding gowns (seriously, I'm not joking, it's a wierd little site). I'm currently using this car charger:
http://www.meritline.com/iphone-usb-car-charger---p-38528.aspx
this thing is so tiny it's nearly flush with the cigarette lighter in my car, making for an almost stock look. combined with the retractable cable I'm saving precious space for other junk in the cramped interior of my Honda Fit.
I also carrry around some spare microSD cards with a couple of these:

thanks herc i bought that retractable usb cable
Nice. I have a ton of cords and wall adapters as well. They seem to pile up really fast. I love the car adapter you linked. It really is almost flush so you dont notice it. I got it for like 99 cents with a coupon. The best thing is that it seems to charge as fast if not faster than my wall charger. Thanks for the links.

So I just bought this case/keyboard combo off amazon today and was wondering if anyone has had any experience with it? It seemed to get good reviews and I got $30 off for getting a amazon credit card.

I'm also looking for an extended 30pin to usb extra long sync/charging cable. I was looking at the following one on amazon. It's not OEM, and it seems to not charge as fast as a real Sammy one does, but I suppose thats okay. Is there a place I can buy a OEM extended cable?

Any input?
The link for your keyboard is the same link as for the cable. Do you like the keyboard you got? I just bought a tab and want to find a good keyboard or keyboard/case combo for it.

I just bought a cheap male / female USB extender cable for less than $2. Yeah, it's a bit kludgey but you can get whatever length you want, more or less and they're sold everywhere online for ridiculously cheap prices.
I'm really disappointed there aren't more 3rd party versions of the Tab's USB cable though. God forbid they use something like PDMI.

I do the same thing. Male to female usb extender, and you can have pretty much any length. Minehas about 6 feet of length, plenty in my opinion.

The Juiced systems cable.
I own one of the Juiced Systems extra long cables and can vouch that the cable charges at about the same speed as the stock cable. Make sure you buy from the Stoned Organics Seller. The other people that are selling cables, i have no idea what kind of crap they may be selling. Good luck.

I recently bought one of these chargers on ebay from tuttoit (12V 1.5A 18W AC HOME Charger Adapter for MOTOROLA XOOM 4G LTE 3G Wi-Fi - can't post link due to xda restrictions). The charger works OK (charges quite quickly in fact) but I've found my xoom cannot be used while this charger is plugged in! The screen become unusable and therefore I have to wait until I have finished charging before I can use my xoom again. I think it may be to do with the charger not earthing properly.
Also the black box on the charger gets very hot.
Just posting this info to help anyone thinking of buying this charger.
Further to my previous post: DO NOT BUY A CHARGER FROM TUTTOIT ON EBAY.
Mine died after a few weeks of use. They are cheap rubbish.
(That'll teach me to buy cheap off eBay )
This stinks that you experienced this...but for the most part...its pretty common these days.
I try to use OEM products whenever possible and pay a little extra. I had a bad experience with a non OEM laptop charger years ago...and it friend my motherboard and power supply unit on my Thinkpad - thankfully I was able to find a used MoBo and install myself for 35 bucks.

Good advice.
I took the broken one apart and the circuit board inside had been fried.
Yesterday I looked for a Motorola charger and couldn't find one, even on the Motorola website!
Ended up buying another one from Hong Kong but I think the quality is a bit better (fingers crossed).
What about Amazon?

Didn't think of Amazon and the price is about what I paid on eBay! D'oh.
Might buy one of theirs as well.
Thanx.
DO NOT BUY A CHEAP CHARGER FROM xiaoqinzhang2009 ON EBAY! Seller now known as micro-estore.
I did it again!
This second charger does the same as the first; you can't use the touchscreen while it is charging and it gets very hot.
I doubt these are made to Australian manufacturing standards.
I'm following tincbtrar's advice and going OEM from now on.
If you didn't already have a spare one lying around, where did you guys buy your wall chargers. I was looking at this one from Monoprice and was just wondering if they're are better or even cheaper options.

How do I know if my wall is discharged
Would anyone happen to know where the cheapest, compatible wireless charger is sold for the G3?
Bro if you buy cheap you can't get mad when it don't work good. It is never worth it to go cheap
I don't know if I would say that. Some people got a cheap wireless charger from AT&T that was fine but out of stock now. I'm not talking about the back cover I know AT&T's is different. I bought a LG Vest case from Korea for 20 and it was 60 in the US. Same exact case. It's kind of hit or miss though. I want to get wireless charger but only if I can find a deal on a good one. I think buying cheap batteries is different though. I want a slim case but I don't know what ones work with a wireless charger. I guess maybe I'll just get a bumper or something.
Depending on the item, I'll buy cheap such as chargers or cables. They've worked for me for X amount of years. If it breaks, I'll buy a new one and it will still be cheaper than buying a quality one that costs 4 times as much.
I just ordered this http://www.ebay.com/itm/22147408925...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
I see a lot of people and on YouTube using this. The Qi chargers are nothing special. Its all plastic and the internal is just a chip, with wire and coil for charging. You can even buy the internals on eBay and put it in to your own case if you're that creative.
I have Nexus Wireless Charging orb I can sell you
Qi-compatible wireless adapter with NFC
My adapter finally arrived! I used a sharp knife and sliced out the old one after I tested this one.
Chinese website that only took 2 weeks to deliver!
It works with my Nokia Wireless charger just fine. However, with the standard white, flat, Qi-compatible charger I got on Amazon for $8, it says "charging slowly" and to plug in to the usb port to charge faster.
I'm just glad I don't have to buy the LG-branded wireless charging station for $50+!

My Nokia DT910 charges fine with no slow charge warning, but randomly disconnects and then immediately starts charging again. Is it doing that for you?

I got the LG puck from from Verizon last year when they had a promo. Works fine on my Nexus 7 but on the G3 I get the slow charge message
