I have ordered a KFHD but not a charger yet, so can I use my HTC charger instead ?
Yes, I use the usb port on my computer to charge my Kindle.

i've been using an old HTC charger (from a droid inc) to charge mine. kind of annoying that they don't give you a charger
Hello. I recently got a mycharge amp2000 as shown in the photo. I have problems with it charging my moto x. When I plug it in it charges for a second then turns red an stops charging. Now normally this would be a problem with the charger but I have tried it with two other devices including my nexus 4 and it worked perfectly on those. That is why I am concerned it is a problem with my moto x. Any ideas?

I've never used one of those but I have 4 external batteries and they all charge my Moto X just fine.

Hmm...Strange. It could be just a problem with my portable charger that it is just not compatible with the Moto X's voltage or something weird like that...

hmm, strange it should work due to the fact my coworker has the same thing and it works on her Moto X
Try the OEM cable that came with the phone.

I have the same exact problem. My wife and I both have the Verizon Moto X and we each have two external changers. These chargers work fine with our friends' phones and with our Nexus 7s, but they don't work with either of our Moto Xs. I don't seem to see much about this issue around the internet, maybe we just have rare bugs?
Strange. I've tried charging my Moto X in my car the other day and for some reason it refused to charge at all. I think it was because I wasn't using the OEM cable. I don't know but I'm curious if the charging port is just touchy on cables or that certain voltages aren't accepted by this phone.
P.S. My sister charges her phone in my car with the exact same cable almost every morning so there is no problem with it as far as I'm concerned.

This.
One of my other usb cables won't charge the moto x but works fine with other phones, not sure why but it's a longer than normal cable so maybe that has something to do with it. In any case, my moto x charges just fine with the oem cable and a couple other cables I have laying around.

Thanks, I think you're right...just tried one of the externals with the OEM cable and now it's working. I wonder what the difference is, shouldn't a cable just be transferring the power from charger to device? I always thought a cable was a cable and it was the power supplies that differed. Either way, it's obnoxious to always have to carry around the long cord. On of the benefits of external chargers is compact portability.
Only complaint about the Moto X, otherwise this thing is great.
I've used my old HTC cables from the Thunderbolt, Motorola cables for the Xoom, LG cables from some LG phone, and Samsung cables from the S3 and Note 2. All of them work with the wall plug, computers, VZW car charger, and my Jackery charger.
What's the difference between the OEM and other cables? All I've used are OEM-labeled cables but have been looking at a 6ft cable (Monoprice, Amazon brand, Mediabridge or something braided/jacketed) off Amazon.
ive been using a motorola phone for a while now. Idk if it is moto specific or not, but some cables work and some don't. I know on my prior phone some cables would charge but not transfer data. Then some would say on my screen (not a compatible charger or not authorized charger or something). Those wouldn't charge most of the time, but sometimes if i turned the phone on then off or did certain weird things they would end up charging even though the not authorized prompt was still on the phone.
I think it probably has something to do with whether the cable can transfer data correctly for the moto phone. If it can't then it won't charge the phone. never had a problem with higher quality cables or cables that came from high quality phones. Only had problems with no brand name cables or older cables.
my two cents.
Alls I know is I've got a bunch of cables and wall plugs laying around and I just use whatever and it works. I've got cables and wall chargers from Samsung phones and tab, nexus tab, kobo, kindle, Motorola (old flip phone), iPhone (wall plug anyway), a Sony camera, Samsung camera, leapfrog tablet, a car diagnostic computer.....um ....that's all I can think of......and they all work and in any combination. LOL

Hi All,
I have my X sine it came up on 2014 here in Argentina (2013 version).
At first the USB plug was tight and steady, but it's been a while and now I just got my Lollipop update, but my USB is too loose, so everytime I plug it I must strugle to get it charging.
I've never opend it, I'm not quite sure what to do to get it as it once was again and keep this awesome phone alive..
I'll appreciate any suggestions
Maybe the microusb pin is the issue. Do you have the same problem with a new USB cable?

Well some cables seem to lock a bit more, but all cables are too lose, new cables like you get that 'click' felling, but its still loose, not as much as the original, but loose in the end :S
Hey all,
I need help identifying the cable included with the Amazon Fire. Can someone take a clear picture of both ends of the cable and give an accurate mesaurment of length?
Thanks

I understand any cable will work, however I'm lookiing to specifically identifiy the cable supplied with the Amazon Fire.

It is the short black cable about 2 ft long.
Hi all..
Just wanted to check if I can Odin reset using USB-C to USB-C cable. Has anyone tried it? The cable is the official one that came with the charger.

I've been using Odin like this since last November with no issues. I'm using a Anker USB c to c I got off Amazon. I looked for 60W cables.
