Very good but I couldn't find any visible cable for the charger to suit our phone's usb port.

That is cool as ****.
You could always get a micro to mini adapter (if that's what the i9003 uses, not clue, lol)

If another converter is used then it won't be the visible green charger. The whole purpose of having a visible charger is defeated. So I had asked whether we can get a similar one for our SGL also.

Check out monoprice.com. I have ordered multiple cables from them. Good quality at a reasonable price. I have a 6ft micro usb to usb that I use now. Works just as good as the stock one.

Ditto on the suggestion for Monoprice. It's the only place I buy this sort of thing.
But that aside, if you can't find what you're looking for and want a REALLY long cable, you can easily find regular USB extension cables. Like 6 to 15 foot extension cables. Then you can plug your short micro USB cable that fits your phone into the extension.

Thx because the one that comes with the sensation is just to short I wish they made a micro USB to stand USB adaptor that would be great so I could have my phone charge via AC and it actually reach my desk.

maybe try something like

Basically any USB to USB-Micro B-type cable will work.

I have an adapter cord, for USB usage,I normally use it on my computer.

Yup, monoprice is where its at. I got my 16 ft long cable for a couple bucks. It was definitely worth it.

what do u do with a 16 footer? i just want to sit in the back of the car while my wife drives

i'll second Amazon basics. i have a couple of their usb cords and they are great.

Others have said it works fine. I just tested it myself, and it does. Just make sure you're putting it in the right way, the logo on the cable needs to go away from the front of the device. Pretty tight squeeze, but works fine. Even charges on a regular 1a usb charger. Now, I did have it off while I did it. Check other posts for other's input on this.

check this thread for your problem.

Nexus 4 micro USB cable

Hi
My dog ate my ONLY original nexus 4 micro USB cable few minutes\hour ago.
Because I didn't find an original micro USB cable for the nexus 4 on ebay and DX, I wanted to know if I can use a different micro USB cable.
If you bought\ordered a TRUE original nexus 4 micro USB I would like to know if it's working well, and if it is, where can I find it (link maybe)?
If you didn't find, which cable do you suggest me to use?
Thank you very very very very very much!
It's SUPERIMPORTANT for me

Yeah...any Micro USB 2.0 Cable will work...they're all the same. Don't spend 20 bucks on a USB cable, they're not any more special.

I've heard that there are some cables with wrong wiring.
Is that true? If it is, how can I know if it's good cable or not?
And it will be OK if I'll buy a genuine Samsung or Sony cable right?

Pretty sure Amazon basics should have a USB cable you can buy for much cheaper than either OEM and no difference in quality.

Thanks guys!
What are the important things that I should remember when buying?
That it will be micro USB (of course), solid and that's it?

LOL! Watch those dogs
Any micro usb should work.

Be careful or the next time your dog will eat your Nexus 4

Smallest Micro USB to HOST/CHARGE adapter?

Hi guys
What are you using to power your Tab S and have a hard drive etc connected
at the same time?
Looking for the smallest possible option to limit bulkiness
Thanks!!

what about this cable.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00EJP5X...m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_r=0RE8386SWCWM00V7XPZJ
John.

Yeah looks good....what cables are you guys using for charging and host at the same time?
I heard its not recommended to use an external hard drive without supplying power to the Tab S

Yeah, your right about using an external power supply when using an portable hdd with your tablet as it uses too much power by the hdd, the cable i linked above has an microusb socket for you to plug your tablet usb power adaptor into.
John.

The Y-OTG cables supply power to the OTG device (e.g. SD card USB reader) but not concurrently to the Tab S. Basically all they do is reduce power drain on the TabS. The previous comment to try to use a powered USB hub or a self powered USB device is good advise.

I have to resist the urge to go cheap on power adapters, after i had an car and an mains adapter start smoking in a week and nearly blew-up my HTC M7, I have been looking at the Belkin USB Adapter 2.4amp it comes with an 25.000 damage warranty, they cost between 15-20£ in the UK.

Have you tried the ones on aliexpress.com??
They say its otg and charges at the same time

Samsung tablets no longer supports this function that I know of. They used to have a dock mode that would do usb host charge and hdmi out ending with note 8. I tried all types of resistors and cables so far the lava adapter is the only one that worked. It's a solid 1amp charge with usb function. I wasted more money making and buying cables that said worked but never did. If u want ou cheap buy a usb host cable put a 1ohm to 10k potentiometer in between ground and Id pin turn it slow til u see usb host triggered on the tablet but again it could be a waste of money and not work. I had a tab pro trigger usb host and charge that way but was very unstable current. Any questions let me know.

Hi.
In the user manual it says that the touchscreen my act-up while it is used while the tablet is charging if the power supply is unstable.
A quick Google show this is an common issue for a lot of brands of tablet/phones

Never had a issue I bought the lava 3 port silmulcharge sts 3u it has 3 usb host ports I use one for usb dac 1 for ireless mouse/keyboard 1 for flashdrive. It was made for kiosks to always be plugged in and charging according to the guy at lava I talked to. You have to have a dba to get it direct and the shipping is alot from Canada to us so buy from amazon.
