Anyone know of a decent ac charger that works with the nexus? I have like 5 micro usb chargers from various old phones, but only one or two work with the nexus.
I used the one that came with the phone

I use the one that came with my Nexus One. It's 5W charger, like the Samsung wall wart, but has a cable that's a foot or so longer. I keep the Samsung at the girlfriend's. At work I use a 5V/.85a motorola that I found lying around.
Any brand name charger will work fine. Off brands...well...you get what you pay for sometimes.
Idk if itll help, but I have an HP Touchpad in the house, and the "barrel" like wall adapter and a random micro-USB charge with "AC" power as shown by the nexus.
tl;dr buy an HP touchpad charger on the cheap.

i am currently using this one instead original charger，it works fine. works great on my samsung android phones and iphone4 ， except ipad2.the package with a free usb cable that for samsung galaxy tab . so you need a normal android usb cable, charger really small and great lookinghttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150731518...18326&_sacat=See-All-Categories&_fvi=1&_rdc=1

Hi,
I currently have the euro charger with us adapter and its annoying how janky the thing is.
What are you fellow us owners using for wall chargers?
I'm thinking the Samsung galaxy note charger might be good. Its under rated at 5v .7A so it should work right just charge slower ...
Thanks

Just in case you're really cheap like me, an easy way to get the charger and adapter to "stick" together is to take some small strips of paper, fold them over and over again until they're about as wide and thick as a popsicle stick, and stick one in each side of the adapter socket. Then cram the charger into the adapter, and it'll fit like a glove. Before I did that, my charger would fall out of the adapter at least three times a day. If you'd like some pictures to see what I'm talking about, just let me know.

Can I use my iPad charger to charge my Galaxy Nexus.
IPad : The input says 0.45A 50-60Hz
The output says 5.1V 2.1A
While the the Gnex charger says
Input 0.15Hz 0.15A
Output 5.0V 1.0A
Will it be fine for the Gnex battery?
Any harm on doing this?

If anyone uses a good quality cable or knows of one could u point me in that direction because I always find that the samsung ones stop working after a while around where it plugs into the phone.

AW: New Charger Cable
I always buy the 1 buck things from eBay. They work pretty well and if one breaks there are still enough, because I always buy 5 or 6 at a time.

I have a media bridge 6 foot cable I got off amazon. Great charger cable. It seems like it charges faster than stock too. Not just on my nexus, but also my uncles note.

AW: New Charger Cable
Just checked eBay.
From 1€ to 4,10€ in a day...
Lucky me. I bought 5 for 1 each a few weeks ago.
Hope they will lower the price soon.

I recently bought a nice retractable one from my local Office Max. Liking it a lot! Charges just as fast as the original cable and works for data as well.

I think Google just started accessories for the Nexus 4, like a USB cable, maybe that one will be solid.
I have a Sprint Samsung Galaxy S3 and a Samsung Galaxy Note 8. I would like to buy a dual wall charger to use for both devices. Would a 5 volt 2 amp charger be OK to use on both? Thanks for your help and advice.

Anyone know how the Qi charger knows its connected to the official wall adapter? Tried plugging it to my car charger and my Galaxy Note charger but wont start charging either way.
I wondered the same, mine will also only work with the supplied charger. Perhaps it's the amp output. Will be getting the new Asus QI charger delivered soon, will let you know if that is as fussy.

well, i gave up on it and returned the official qi charger. will look for aftermarket options.
how many amps does your car charger have? My aftermarket Qi only works with 1.2A and up.
