One of my favorite accessories is a mini-cable

I have some 6" cables that go from usb to micro usb so I can charge my phone and/or headset from my laptop without carrying around a full AC adapter.

Where do you buy you're extra cables from???

Need a longer wall charger cord....HELP!

I need a longer charging cord. The factory cords they send with these tabs are wayyyyy too short. 5 feet or so would be perfect. Any recommendations?

Longer cables can be found on amazon and ebay. Here is a link to one example.

I guess I should rephrase. What longer cables have you all used that will charge the tab while using it. Most of the extended USB cables have terrible reviews because they can't supply enough juice. I see the cellet cable has good reviews but no numbers tossed around as to what its output is.

I use a regular, generic (female / male) USB extender cable, connected to the stock Samsung one. Works perfectly.

Ditto, mines only a foot or two longer and it is more than enough distance for me.

Why do you need the extra long cable?
A regular extender cable works likea charm...
Dx.com has a lot of those

Anyone know a reliable place to get the OEM charging adaptor?

I just need the adapter and not the USB cable at a low price.
Thanks!

Look it up on amazon but it comes with the usb cable as do all of then unfortunately.

Broken USB port?

My dog stepped on my USB cord when my phone was charging and now it only charges when the cord is being pushed upward at an angle. Is there any way to fix this?

Yes there is, go to ebay and search for Samsung Galaxy Note II USB Dock Connector Charging Port Flex Cable
there are a bunch of them on ebay for $10~$20. You can get just the usb port for about $5 and solder it on the board, but it's a pain. I would suggest just order the whole board and replace it.
hope that helps!:cyclops:

If I may ask, my samsung usb cable fits very loudly to the gn2. A very slight motion will unplug the cable. I found this annoying, but also thought it would be useful for the very situation that happened to you.
How did yours simply not unplug?
swyped all these spelling errors from my galaxy note 2

I'm not sure to be honest I thought the exact thing would happen too, but it twisted into a weird angle into the micro usb port. The cable was kinda messed up too

Connecting a PS3 controller?

So I am wanting to link my ps3 controller to my S3 to do some gaming action...
I understand you need a OTG cable, but then I noticed the gameklip comes with this spiffy mini to micro cable. My question is, could I just buy a mini to micro cable on ebay and it work? Or does a OTG cable have some sort of special micro controller in it?

Normal mini to micro cable is not usb otg cable. I tried mini to micro cable for usb drive, it won't work.
I never dissect my own otg cable, so i dunno if there's a micro controller inside

If you're rooted then you don't need a cable, just Bluetooth.

Read my thread in my signature. That should get you started

You still need the cable for first pairing don't you? At least that was when I played around with it.
I just bought a USB PS3 to micro wire and it worked just fine, paid 50 cents over here.

Any old mini USB will do for the pairing.. I think I used my old BlackBerry one.
