USB charging wire! - HTC Droid DNA

Does anyone know where I can buy either an OEM charging wire that doesn't cost too much or just a regular USB charging cable for my DNA that isn't crappy? Thanks!

I found a pretty good one but since I can't post links yet I'll tell you how to get there: go to amazon and search Oem Charging Wire and click on the first link which is called Samsung OEM Micro USB Data Charging Cable (5 ft/1.5m) for Samsung Galaxy S II, Epic 4G Touch, Skyrocket, Galaxy Attain, Galaxy Note, Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy S Wifi 4.2, Galaxy Pocket, Rugby Smart and More. Hope I helped! It's not prime though, sorry.

Or contact htc say it broke or whatever happened to it and they will send you a new one for free made for the dna. My charger broke and they did that and it's the oem one. You will need your phone information to prove you own the phone. You get one accessory replacement per year from them.

You can use literally any micro-USB cable. Monoprice has a them in varying lengths for a few bucks.

Amazon!! Anytime I need anything for my phone I go there. I got a brand new stock battery for my rezound for 2 bucks back when I was using that phone. Stock usb cables for a penny all day. Cases 90% off retail. I sound like I work for them or something but I'm just that happy with the deals I constantly find on there. Half the time you even get free 2 day shipping.

Must have gotten a bad rep because all i did was call and tell them what happened and they sent a cable and wall charger meant for the DNA at no cost. I would try again because if you own an htc phone they will replace one accessory a year from them if something happens to it.

Definitely a bad rep. I had a new wall charger/cable sent to me the next week. No questions asked.

Do you have to have your phone registered through them or anything? I bought my dna new from Verizon in February, and the charger quit working two months later. I don't think I've ever registered it or anything like that. Do they just require the imei and serial/ information on the sticker, or how do they verify that you are the owner of the device?

Warranty on charger?

wsup guys. my USB charger just broke for my Rezound. I was wondering if there was any sort of warranty on those that Verizon (or Amazon, since I bought the phone through them) would honor?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
good lord, what in the hell did you do to that poor thing? lol
That looks like physical damage to me and would not be covered anyway.
I would take this one as a loss and just buy a new one. They are cheap.
Should be a year. Depending on who you talk to... Amazon might have to take care of it, but when I talked to Verizon about Amazon and issues like this, they always told me to just go into the store and have it replaced. The warranty on it is 1 year, just like your phone, battery and memory card.
Note that if you purchase a separate charger, you're bound by that warranty, though usually a year, you might have to mail it to someone.
Just tell them... as long as its the truth... I tried to pull the cable out of the phone, and the connector stayed lodged inside the phone's USB connector.
It's a cable, and costs them nothing to have them made. My company sells cables similar to this for $16 and they cost us a buck to have made. The markup is ridiculous.
They are pretty cheap or any Blackberry Charger or other Droid Charger works. They prob wont warranty that.

Cooked USB Port - how to charge battery so I can flash back to stock?

Anyone have a good idea for charging the battery on an i777 with a cooked USB port? I need to flash it back to stock for warranty replacement, but the battery is dead! I guess I am stuck with ordering a battery charger off of ebay.
Find a friend with a phone that uses the same battery.

I'm striking out on that one, but I have rigged up an old camera battery charger with approximately the same output voltage, so we'll see how that goes!
EBay has them pretty cheap. Or get an official Samsung charger unit that has a extra battery. It is like $50

Go to any at&t store and nicely ask them charge it for you on the demo device.
If you do the warranty replacement through AT&T in the mail you can charge the battery in the replacement phone. I think you get like 10 days to send it back.

Pleasant experience with AT&T warranty exchange

Just thought i would share my experience.
My charging port has been acting funny for a week or so. Last night it wasn't working at all. I called customer care to find out about a repair as I didn't want to exchange it. They told me about a warranty center not to far from me.
I took it in this morning, they looked it over and decided they couldn't repair it. So they gave me a brand new one. The lady saw cm10 and allowed me to put it back to stock so i wouldn't get charged.
AT&T customer service has come a long way in the years since I first had the service.

I had a very pleasant experience earlier today too. My situation is different cause I've only had my phone for a few days, but I had some stuck pixels & they exchanged it for a flawless one cheerfully & with no questions asked. Very impressed with AT&T so far, especially after all the bad things I've heard about them

They replaced mine for the cracks, then the next two for screen blobs. I handled everything over the phone. When asked if it was dropped I let them know it was a documented issue. They contacted Samsungwhile I waited on hold, Samsung confirme and att came back on the line and processed the exchange.

Yeah I have also been checking for the two batteries on amazon, as well as ebay, and still nothing lol.
Ordered one a couple days ago and should get it sometime next week.
Im getting really good battery life with the stock Samsung amd hopefully the Anker will be even better.
Received mine today. It came in nice retail packaging. Seems to be made of good quality and appears to be slightly thicker and heavier to me.
I'll have to see how it performs over the next few days.

Does anyone know if this charger works with the GN3 battery? I saw it on the bottom of the Anker GN3 battery on Amazon as a "Frequently Bought Together" pair but the amazon link doesn't specifically say Note 3, which looks alot bigger than the other batteries listed.
The Charging Kit is available on Verizon's Web site (spare battery and charger).

The description says that the maximum length the charger fits is 2.6 in (6.6cm) and the output voltage is 4.2v. It doesn't charge the S4 due to the output voltage being lower than needed (4.35v). I'd assume that would be the same voltage required for the Note 3? I looked at a few sites but couldn't find anything. Maybe someone else that knows can chime in.

People say do not lose it, even Samsung says the same thing.
As long as it is attached to the charging cable I am not sure how I can lose it.
I just worry about it breaking attaching and removing it.
