Charging port semi broken

I have to bend my cord up to get my phone to charge. Is this a warranty exchange issue? T mobile take care of this? Just curious while I'm on tonight before I go the t mobile route or Samsung. Searched and saw it's pretty cheap to fix yourself with the right know how

I had the same problem and its not your phone. Its the the cheap charging cable they gave us. Just go out and buy another cable and you'll be fine.

[Q] Phone to TV

Does anyone know how to connect the phone to TV? ive tries mhl adapter, and just plugging it in with a usb. anyone have success?

Mhl adapter does not work with this phone... you have to use the slimport adapter... I got one off of eBay for like $15... slimport does the same thing as mhl but no external power source is required... just plug into your phone and tv and your good... look it up... it works great...

[Q] import backplate for wireless charging?

So I don't think anyone has looked into this yet, but does anyone know if we would be able to import a European backplate in order to enable wireless charging on the US versions? If the quick circle case is all that's needed to enable it I would think that this is another solution as well for those of us that aren't interested in that case.
I'm waiting on my Verizon version and if one of these OEM backplates could be purchased for cheap on ebay.co.uk or a similar site I'd be willing to test this as an option.

I briefly looked into it, starting with how much it would cost me, but when I saw they were going for $60 on eBay, I gave up. LOL!

Holy balls! So not worth it!!

The charging contacts are in different locations on the international version than the Korean and US versions so it will not work. We have to wait. ?

You need something like this. It needs to have a chance to charge at the same time you using HDMI cable and being plugged in to phone.

Yeah, just like what dpalmer said, you would need Slimport instead of MHL. They are two different technologies that do roughly the same thing: convert video out from micro USB to HDMI. The main difference that I know about is that Slimport does not require you to have a power connection like MHL does. Otherwise, as far as I know, they both give you the same result, but are unfortunately incompatible with each other (a device with the hardware for MHL will not work with a Slimport adapter and vice versa). I think Slimport was supposed to gradually replace MHL but until then, there doesn't appear to be any specific method that is being adopted by every manufacturer.
