Did your Moto G come with wall charger? - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This may have been addressed before, but did your Moto G comes with wall charger? My grandmother just received hers and it only included a USB cable. I called the Motorola Customer Service and they told me that it doesn't come with the charger. Is that true?

It says that on the website. The US model only comes with a USB cable, the phone itself, and the manual/warranty info/etc. Some other editions throughout the world come with headphones or a wall charger.

The acessories of the Moto G depends of the local and the store.
For instance, phones from Amazon FR come with phones and wall charger, and no usb cable.
It's hard to see in the picture, but both have Motorola logo.

Thanks, just read that on their page moments earlier. Can someone point to a good charger around $10?

Replacement AC charger cable

I recently forgot my AC charger and cable at a Hotel. I found a HTC charger for $8 at Amazon but it didn't come with the HTC power cable. Without that power cable it will only charge at a trickle instead at the full AC rate. Does anyone know of where I can find a replacement charger cable? The ones on Amazon are regular USB cables and not the HTC cable.
You could try verizon. They usually stock the replacement stuff.
the plug on the eris has a standard usb micro type b port, with one corner extended to make it look like a different plug, but it's still a usb micro b port.
you can buy essentially any charger for that, or just a usb cable to plug into your computer or any ac-usb converter.
I personally use just a usb to micro usb cable. I personally got one that is longer than the stock one so that I can use my phone while it's charging if I'm in bed or something.
I personally get all my cables from this site:
http://www.pchcables.com/usbtytomibpd.html
They are super awesome people and local to my area, i have yet to find better deals in town.
Shop around in your area for a "cables" store, you may have one in your area too. or if not these guys do shipping, but im not sure how much it is, but if you need any other cables it may be worth it.
I have never noticed a difference from the 15' i got, to the stock 3' cable that came with the phone.
i do know that AC Charges the phone faster, then the DC Car charger being 2nd, then plugged into a PC being the slowest. i think its due to the voltages that the adapters output to the phone, with AC adapter being the highest.
For the ac adapter or cigarette lighter adapters, i got mine on ebay for super cheap, like $3 with shipping i think it was for both. I dont notice a performance difference, just the build quality is cheap, but how often have you broken your ac adapter? lol your more likely to lose it
Just my 2 cents, hope it helps
I bought this back in Nov. Cheap and it works great. I bought this for a buddy as well and it working out great for him too.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002VZSPXG/ref=oss_product
any blackberry or old motorola charger will work. I switched from blackberry over to the eris and all of my chargers work with this phone.

Cheapest / best cables around. At least IMHO. I buy ALL my cables from them and so should you.
I second the monoprice. Their prices are so low it's silly.

What's a good 3rd Party Car Charger?

I am looking for a good dual or multi usb car charger. The one I currently have isn't putting out enough power I think to charge and run the GPS. It also causes issues after charging that the phone does not recognize it's been unplugged and does not sleep. This is my current one (currently not available anymore): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0021WWYE0/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00
EDIT: maybe this one? http://www.amazon.com/PowerGen-Heav..._1_2?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1336573757&sr=1-2
I was running into the same issues. What I ended up purchasing was a RocketFish Mobile car charger. Has a micro usb (9 foot cord) plus a usb slot to charge whatever else you have. It charges my Skyrocket while using GPS and listening to music.

Your in the states so google RF-PMC55
What did you finally end up ordering?
the basic charger from your local att store will work just fine. Charges mine while using gps and has an additional usb port.

I have the same one. It works well for charging the Skyrocket, although I haven't tried out the additional USB port yet as I never have anything extra to charge in my car.

Thirding. I got this for my girlfriend and her Skyrocket and she absolutely loves it.
Not a two usb output, but it's very reliable and compact as well as versatile. I've had it since the iPhone 3G came out and now use it for my Skyrocket by just plugging in the micro usb cord that came with the phone. Charges anything with the right usb cord, usually an extra 2 or 3 dollars, except tablets. Rated at 5v 1amp.

I just picked up one of these for her highness. Don't have it yet but my existing dual port charger work great with everything from my ipod to my phones. $6.50 and two "1A" USB ports.
Griffin Dual USB Car Charger PowerJolt for iPhone/iPod
I bought this one in august 2011 and have been using it since then with no issues whatsoever. I like it because the blue logo on the faceplate tells when it's plugged in. Early on it would slip out due to vibrations of the car and "turn off" but hasn't in the last six months since it's "rusted in". Charges everything I've plugged into it and does both the ipod and the cell phone at the same time with no issues.

I've ordered some AmazonBasics stuff before, but with chargers you seem to get what you pay for. Both AB's I ordered were total crap. I'm using a iGo Green charger. Works great

[Q] Charging problem (micro usb)

Hello,
I have a Moto G 16Gb version from amazon.fr. Now I have a problem with charging the device. There was a charger from motorola in the package (a White one) that works without any problem.
Here at home I have another micro usb charger from my Samsung Galaxy S3 / A tablet / chinese phone / and from a Raspberry pi. All these chargers don't work on the Moto G... Is there any difference? I thought that Micro USB was a Standard worldwide ?
Think I found something. The chargers that doesn't work are chargers with an output of 1000mA. Then I took a charger (with the same USB cable) with an output of 500mA and it works. So all chargers with 1000mA are worthless with this phone I think.
I use a charger with 1000 mA and it works...
Support says it's best to use a branded charger as the charger needs to fulfill certain specifications to be able to work. But you used a Samsung charger anyway - maybe it's an issue with the phone?

The higher rating has no bearing on the charge delivered, the device will charge at an appropriate rate.
True, tried my car charger (2A) and it worked.
But it doesn't work with my Raspberry Pi charger, Jiayu charger, ...
So I have to buy a different brand of charger I think. But it remains strange. So, If I am by a friend, and I want to charge my phone and he has a different brand of charger ...

Correct ! My opinion that a 1000mA doesn't work is not true. But it can be that brand X works and brand Y doens't work. That's my conclusion so far

OEM Charger

Does anyone know where i can get an identical charge like the one that came with the phone? The reason why is because the one that came with my G3 makes an almost hissing sound during charging and its making me nervous.
does it need to be identical? any 2.1a wall charger with a usb port will do fine. I use my wife's HTC and Nook plugs all the time
Ok and it doesn't damage the battery?
uhm no. rechargeable batteries need a charging circuit in order to not overcharge and blow up (tried it, it does happen lol) consumer electronics have this built in because they don't want their consumers catching fire. As long as you provide it power, it'll charge. The charging circuit will take care of the rest. 2.1a chargers are widely available and will provide a fast charge
Are you sure it's a 2.1a charger? I swear my D850 was 1.8a.
Yeah mine is 1.8a
Look on Amazon, but search for G2 chargers. I don't remember seeing any in the g3 section
Edit: looks like they have one now

My charger doesn't make a hissing sound while charging (at least not that I have noticed. I haven't stuck my ear up to the charger however). If this is happening to you, I would contact LG or your service provider to see about getting a replacement.

Literally any USB charger with a charging capacity of 2 amps or greater. Amperes are not like volts; a power supply can't have "too many" amps for a circuit.

It will work fine... One with a higher rating may charge faster, but it shouldn't be significantly different.
