Um... The incredible has a micro-usb port. You can't shove a mini in there.

And the answer is yes and NO. The charge voltage is always the same but different phones use different methods to get signaled for charging. For instance the iphone uses 2.7V across pins 2,3 to signal and 5V across 1,4 as I recall.
You won't do damage using the wrong one though. It just won't work and you'll scratch your head.

His question still asked if he could use a mini usb charger for this phone, and no, he cant. The incred uses a micro-usb port, where a mini will just not fit.

Umm, no he asked "Does anyone know if all mini usb car chargers are the same voltage? Can i use any mini usb cig charger i have?" and larsdennert's answer was a direct answer to that exact question.

so this thing is a micro usb like the blackberry? gonna buy a big pack of usb cables for it and I don't wanna buy the wrong ones.

the cable you should buy would then be USB A to micro B. Monoprice is sold out- I ended up buying from Amazon, but the shipping was a bit ridiculous

I just ended up getting a charger from wal-mart that was labeled for a Motorola, but it works fine since it is a micro USB

I have alot of motorola mini usb chargers... I bought a micro usb adapter for 6 bucks from radio shack... it charges and works as far as I can tell... only thing I notice is that the motorola is 5v-550mA not 5v-1A ... I dontk know if this will have any long term effect on the batteries... I think it just makes it charge slower

I don't know the difference between micro and mini, but I hope I can use the car charger I recently purchased for my Touch Pro for my new D.I.

I tried using the BB brand car charger and I got a message on my Dinc that I this manufacture was not compatible with the Dinc. WTF?

I've had no problems using any car charger that allows either changing tips (igo) or has a USB port so you plug the correct cable in. I even have an Apple car charger that works as long as I use the correct USB cable.
But now a slightly different question....
I notice the Incredible WALL charger says 5v at 1A, and my WALL chargers for Apple are 5v .5 A, so I assume the Apple charger works for Incredible, only slower charge, but is it same to use the Incredible Charger for the Incredible? I hate traveling with a zillion chargers.

[Q] samsung galaxy i9000 charging path's map

hi dudes
my galaxy i9000 does not charge!
i tried to charge it by a nokia n8 USB cable,cause i had forgotten my charger
after that whatever charger i used,even its own, no response!!!
now it doesnt work
several repairmen said that all the gadgets are ok, but the path from the charging socket to the port is cut off somewhere, and nobody has the map for this path!
please,please,please someone help me and provide me with the maps.i desperately need'em!
i spent 700 bloody bucks on this phone.my gmail is [email protected]

Never ever try another phone's charger on Galaxy S, or any expensive phone as a matter of fact. SGS, has different voltage and ampere requirements.
By repair men, do you mean Samsung Service centre? Service centre is your best option if you do not want to risk your phone.

Do you mean: 12kV/80A or more???
Tried standard and travel HTC chargers - no problem. Generic 1A/5V car charger - no problem.
Stop saying fairy-tales, please

I don't know about you, but when I tried using different chargers, the touch on my phone did not work. And I do not want to take the risk to screw up my 600$ phone over some 10$ charger... Get genuine stuff and be on the safer side.

Myhm. First of all, If i'd be you, I would do two things:
1. Compare parameters on orgiginal charger and the replacement
2. Look in accessory threads, for example First in a row
You know, I'm not you, so I like to learn before I write complete bull**** somewhere.
A little bit of education to be on safer side.

Stop being a ***** man. People make mistakes like I did not see the requirements for the charger before hand. The common notion is that if the pin/jack of the charger fits into the phone, the phone will get charged. That is why I said don't be like me and plug in random chargers which fit in the usb port.

It is easier to buy a new charger, comes much cheaper

You stated previously: "Never ever try another phone's charger on Galaxy S, or any expensive phone as a matter of fact.", what is absolute bull****.
As it is shown in the thread linked by me, ANY charger with current bigger than 900mA will work properly and safely.
The issue, that you have plugged something completely irrelevant to your phone doesn't means that SGS will work ONLY with original charger. Period
And Merry Christmas.

Charging Problem

Guys, having a problem with the battery port ( I think)
As soon as i plug the wall charger in to the port the phone shows that it is charging but it actually doesn't charge. This happens only with the wall charger.
Tried Reflashing ROM and everything software related.
On Sweetrom v10.5 with Philz.
It works fine via USB charging ( From Computer).
I changed my charger too but same problem happens.
It started when i plugged the phone to a charger of Xolo Q1000 (3rd Party) and that too in a Made In China Extension Board. :/

Hi there
Its a problem with the charger not the USB cable.

You might have a bad USB port on your phone,
If you do then this goes to show don't use 3rd party chargers and extensions, you could have shorted it out.
Best thing to do I would think is to try and get a replacement charging module.

Is that possible?
:/
I mean could have probably shorted out the port?
If it is shorted then how does it charge with the USB?
:/
And btw I can use the Phone as a media or storage device too and can acess all files and everything.

Have you tried flashing any other ROMs to make sure it's not a bug?
Some roms can be pretty weird with a few bugs but I'd say it's worth a shot.

but the problem still persists.

I am gonna visit Samsung Care Centre tomorrow as i dont know anything about DIY stuff.

if other usb cable also same , then it must be usb port that damaged.

Charging issues with Cyanogen 10.1.3

Hi there, im posting this thread because i had/im having issues while charging through wall plug my Galaxy S. It says its charging but it wont charge really as the percentage will never go up. If I charge the cell through usb from computer things go fine and it charges normally.
I've purchased a brand new charger to see if the old one was the guilty for that issue but the brand new is not working either.
Any of the battery supplies doesn't work either so i figured out that the issue came from software so I upgraded my Cyanogen to the most recent stable version and well, at the first charge through the wall plug was fine but after that isnt working again.
So I'm asking you guys if there's a solution for my issue, i'm really desperated with this problem. I can't travell if my cell doesnt charge through wall plugs.
Thank you.

Hi,
i`ve posted your thread in the development thread of CM 10.1.3 ...maybe more people have a idea what it could be !

first check USB slot for misaligned pins, looseness and dirt. Follow this guide
Check this out! You , YES! you are an " Android ". Not your phone but U.​

I've checked it and its not a hardware issue. This issue started to happen when i installed a stable version of Cyanogen and data connection through USB works fine when im transfering movies and pics through the usb connection. Problem is while charging with every wall charger i have for Galaxy.

Maybe make a backup of your device...with CWM-Recovery and t est with another ROM or newer ROM, like CM 10.2 ...only as a test

I bought recently a samsung charger recently.
Before having 10.2 i was with experimental versions of Cyanogen but mobile didnt work properly so i did full wipe of data/cache/dalvik and installed the custom firmware (Gingerbread) and then i upgraded it to Cyanogen doing the right steps as detailed in this forum.

It is really strange, that it worked over usb ,but not with a wall plugged-in charger ...
But i don`t think that it is a software-problem ...
Do you have any news actually?

It may be problem with current output of charger. Check whether your charger is giving 700mA (0.7A) output.
Find the output marked on the sticker (or on body) on the charger whether it is written 700mA or less.
If it is 700mA, then output is equivalent to the original charger. If it is 550mA, then it's just OK. And if it is less than 550mA, it is of no use for Galaxy S.

Hi, I've just checked the charger outputs and they are between that range. One is 0.7A and the other one is 550mA. Thing is that with the 550mA one it only charges when i plug the connector to the phone in the same particular position, if not it's not charging. The 0.7A one is not charging at all but is the one which charged the phone without problem some days ago.
I'm ordering an additional one to confirm my suspects, ill keep u noticed, thanks for all the help!

Instead of buying the new charger, You may buy the charging pin as shown in the pic given in the link. It will cost you just around 2% of the cost of the original charger.
www.telecomb2b.com/uploadedimages/3023Connector-pin.jpg
Separate both the parts (mobile end) on the charging pin and also on the old charger. Now exchange the end parts of both (charger and charging pin)
and enjoy refreshed charger
* instead is writing thanks, press the thanks button as it matters a lot to me (only if you feel I helped you )

Hmhh it is really strange...hope with new charger or pin it works ...:good:

Dunno whats wrong with the new one i purchased before this one, but its not working at all.

Hey great, nice to hear :good: thanks for the news...
fast charge menas that the highest power of your charger or over usb will be activated for charging your battery faster...i had this option with semaphore, too, but i never used it ...

Fast charge mode has nothing to do with Ac charging. When connected to USB, our phone allow limited power to go for charging. (As you can see, it takes around 6 hours to charge via USB.)
This mode removes this limit and speed up charging.

You can't use wireless charger because simply our phone doesn't have a wireless recoil in it so it's a hardware thing
