Charging Question - HTC One X

hey guys, I'm using my brothers blackberry charger to charge my HOX, the question is, it charges too fast unlike my htc's charger that came with it, unfortunately the htc's charger got busted -.-
so my question is, is it okay If I charge the phone with the blackberry's charger? or should I use PC's USB to charge, that's way too slow btw.

You can even use a 15A charger if you want, the phone will always pull only 1A...
Just make sure the voltage is the same.

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 will work with no problems. I have done this many times as I forget my charger at a friends and use thier iPhone, WiMax, Bluetooth chargers.
I used to charge my WFS with philips mp3 charger.It works without any problem

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!

Q - why won't my one x charge with other USB cables

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.

Not enough power coming from the power supply. Cable isn't the problem.

Well how can that be? I'm using the same HTC plug. It works with the white cable that came with the phone. But when a plug a different micro USB cable into it it doesn't.

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
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
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?

The problem with samsung charger - not charging/breaks with HOX

Hello
I have two chargers: HTC (from ONE X) and Samsung (from ace 2), both are original.
Samsung charger charging properly ACE 2 (I'm moving plug, nothing happens), but when I put this charger to HTC, there is a small problem - samsung charger not charging, I must to gently move plug, to charge my phone...and watch out for the plug, to not to move.
I would add that, this two chargers / cables are working correctly, ports on phones also. I think that there is something wrong with the charger samsung ...or can not ?
I always thought that the microUSB charger are the same...
Sorry for my english and I hope I chose the correct subforum, if not, please move topic

Voltages are the same in samsung and htc one x , only difference is ampers , samsung have 0,75A , when htc have 1A.
I've found second micro usb charger from samsung (other model), and this one is charging correctly , parameters are worst than charger from ace 2 -4,75v and 0,55a.
