Must haves?

I just ordered my TB, I want to know what accessories I should buy to make it the best phone on the market.

charger...
other than that...i dont use anything they gave me. not the car charger, car mount, screen protectors, and now not even the double case..

i recommend a tpu material case (jelly-like yet somewhat hard plastic material, NOT silicone which attracts lint and sticks to things) for $10 or less from amazon/ebay and a cheap screen protector from the same sources.

HTC Extended Battery

If anyone hunting around ebay sees the good stuff if you could throw up some links? I just bought 3 1500mAh batteries for 12.00 including shipping, so even if they dont work Ill have some nice paperweights. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200593732607&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

Has anyone got anything from that company or have any dealing with close batteries

secondary charger, screen protector

Car charger.. the key is to charge it everywhere until they can optimize battery life

My car chargers always brake, What do you use?

How do u break ur charger? I'm more curious about that lol
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App

No, Idea after I got my eris I bought the official verizon and like 2 weeks later it just stopped charging, since then I only buy the super cheap ones and I can't really blame them on braking

Agreed 100%. They should've sold it with the extended battery already on it for $299.99 in my opinion, but I'm sure that would have made some people think twice about buying it to begin with.

I always break my car chargers too, so I bought a little car usb charger and plug into that, havent had a problem since and I can charge anything now.

Yeah I have a little USB car charger that lets me use my own USB cable. Great since I can swap between my Micro-B cable (for the TB) and another cable such as say the Zune cable.

I have been able to use any number of aftermarket cables on my phone with no problem, but I still like the look of the stock HTC cable set the best

I have gotten several HTC cables off of eBay.
Sent from me

You can buy 10 cables at monoprice for what HTC charges for 1 and they will work just the same.

I just went to best buy and picked up a Blackberry cable. Lasted longer than all of the rest so far. Its rather thick too. And reinforced around the connector, where the HTC cable failed and frayed.

I too have gotten one off of ebay, but HTCPedia has them as well and they're pretty cheap. I bought an external charger and a spare battery and it's working out better than the charging the battery in the phone ever did...

Just wondering

I don't know where to buy a charger!

Hi all,
I need to buy a charger for my SGS3. I need either a genuine Samsung one, or a safe and compatible micro-usb charger with an extended cable. I don't want to get one on ebay because I don't trust the listings, and Amazon's listings have negative reviews where users talking about their chargers have exploded and flown across the room.
I'm UK based so I don't want to order from other countries due to shipping times/costs.
Helpful inputs will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Any charger is compatible heck i even use the apple ipad plug and a OEM Htc cable and it works fine
the phone itself regulates all the charging not the charger itself..
but make sure you buy a Hi quality micro USB cable or else you could short your phone

Thanks for the reply, but where should I buy the product from?

Amazon is one of the best places and by sorting them by highest rated and with the most reviews makes it easy. Or if you want to keep it easy, buy the Galaxy S4 charger (2.1 A instead of 1.0 A!) off Samsung.com and if you register your device, they give you a 50% of promo code for mobile accessories which makes it about $20.

Highest rated + most reviews brought me to this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/GadgetinBox...8&sr=8-3&keywords=micro+usb+charger&tag=0u-21

For the price, it wouldn't hurt to buy one but another thing to look out for is number of reviews, which can say a lot of the quality and utility!

Found this one on Amazon but not sure if they have it on the UK site. I'll edit depending on if they have it or not.

Another good option is to check hotels in your area. People leave behind their phone chargers ALL THE TIME: they're not worth driving back for, and often people won't even bother to have them mailed to them. As a result, pretty much every hotel desk has a box of chargers that they hold on to for people who forgot to bring theirs. If you ask nicely, they might let you pick through it and take one. These are often the brandname chargers that came with the phones.

I noticed that the ones with a lot of reviews seem to be the most untrustworthy, I saw a listing with one that had 60 5 star reviews, but it also had 50 1 star reviews that talked about how the charger has literally blown up and flown across the room or stopped working on its second charge. As for local hotels... There aren't any near where I live

Can't you just go to some big retail surface around your area and get one from there? Any charger with a microusb will work. The only thing i'd look out for is the 1A charging current (like the original) so the phone finishes charging in in about 2h. Just avoid the real obvious crap ones from shady brands and you should be fine. You can just trade it in if it doesn't work properly. I got a bundle from energizer for a bit less than 20€ (around £17). Had a wallsocket charger with 2 usb sockets (1A), a car charger one (with 1A and 2 usbs too), a rather long cord and several ends to plug just about every device i could think of. Obviously microusb included.

What about the same as the one provided in the original box? It should be safe I think.
