Not sure. However, I know that 3rd party companies have claimed to improve the flex cable.
Alot of people had issues with the usb card and usb cable being burned and destroying the phone.
A couple of months back, a person in these forums told us that he sent his phone to an official Leeco 3rd party service provider in India, and he said that the service company told him that the common burn issue was caused by faulty flex cables. Sounds reasonable.

Thanks for that information, so the same model number could have different flex cable types, that is strange!
Which cable type did your phone use?

The only great thing about monster is the profit margin they make stores. God I used to love convincing people how they "needed" a monster cable to get things to work the way they should. Of course this was when I made commision way back when I sold them lol.

Better one though is the Denon ethernet cable that costs $500: http://usa.denon.com/us/Product/Pag...roductId=f7d26b3a-05a6-4724-a5c1-2a63642a6206

Yep. Bought that one for the car and bought 2 6ft ones for indoors. All work flawlessly.
I ordered some generic cables on eBay and they work just fine. I do like the way that the micro usb side of the cable that came with the phone is angled, making it easier to plug in in the dark.
I've looked online and found the Samsung replacement part but it appears they are only 2' 9" long (which is a LOT shorter than the cable that came with the phone).
Here's one of the sites where I found this:
http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=38609&cat=888
Has anyone seen a longer (and possibly cheaper) cable like this?
Thanks!

Just buy the monoprice cable and score the right side of the microusb end with a knife or something so you can easily insert it in the dark.
Anyone seen one that is at a right angle that goes in the phone instead up straight up?
So when plugged in, in the car and mounted it doesn't go up like 2 inches before it turns back down.
**nevermind found one on ebay (searched usb cable micro angled)
I bought a 2 pack of retractable cables on ebay for portable charging. To my surprise they work to transfer data, too. It's interesting because the last retractable phone cable I bought could only be used to charge (samsung instinct)
Bought mine from NewEgg and an expensive one is about $15. I choose some that were $4 a piece. Works great
Just placed my order for 2 6ft ones. One to have at work and one at home.

do not get right angle! I made that mistake, it covers the 3.5 mm audio.
get an "Up angle" for a while usbfirewire.com was the only vendor and was $16 to $20 shipped depending on length, but they recently started showing up on ebay for $7 shipped.
I got an up angle from this vendor and it came fairly fast for hong kong (abut 7 days) and was a very good gauge and quality:

$7 shipped
Can anyone recommend a *thin and flexible* USB charging cable? I bought these from Amazon and although they work fine, they are too stiff and thick and I am worried that they will damage my port with prolonged use since I have to bend the cable before the phone lies flat on the table while charging. There are many other options out there but it is hard to judge by the picture how thin and flexible the cable is. I am looking for something as thin and flexible as the OEM cable. Thanks
Got mine in the mail the other day. Took about 3 days or so to get. Very quick shipping. The usb part that plugs into the phone is pretty snug.
Is it possible to buy replacement parts, such as the USB connector at th e bottom of the phone somewhere? I see etradesupply sells it, but idk if I trust them. Does anyone know a good retailer?
Also witrigs had a lot of parts, but are they reliable>

You can trust etradesupply. Takes a few days to get to you, but worth the wait. I have ordered from them a few times and have gotten quality OEM replacements.

I'd like to choose witrigs.com. I saw that the page of the USB board provides much information including product details and repair guide. I prefer the website like this.
You can see the page OEM Charging Port Flex Cable for Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505.
Also i heard that the USB connector is soldered on the logic board, so it's difficult to replace. You may need the whole USB board, it's easier.

Witrigs is reliable. I contacted them by email and they responded within the same day. They let me know that there are currently no coupon codes, and that my item has shipped. The company is fairly new but they are on top of the game just as etradesupply is.
What i like about witrigs is that they explained why it is important to know which version of a part is needed for the Galaxy S4, as there are different models. The galaxy s4 camera are different across all models. If you buy the wrong one it won't work. Witrigs has videos and pictures explaining this on their site.
Etradesupply does not have the cameras that i needed in stock. They also are more expensive. And they did not let me know on their site that i need the certain camera for specific models of the S4.
I received my part in about 2 weeks. It came from China.
Hi all my problem is i bought my Z3 off ebay it had a faulty screen. The screen is not displaying anything so i bought a new screen fitted it but its still the same so bought another thinking it was the part but its still the same. So i need some advice wether its the zif on the board thats faulty or the flex ribbon. the zif connector looks to be ok. And the back light still works and i can hear the boot sounds and notifacations. I just don't want to keep buying parts willy nilly

Because Sony service center is terrible I sent my z1 there in the past for screen flickering and they tried to charge me £315 to fix it. I have replaced the flex ribbon since and still the same no picture on the screen just cant see whats wrong with it
Dont waste your hard earned money. Buy some other brand phone
My USB port is slowly dying. It only charges when the cable is in a certain position and when I move it , it stops charging.
Anyone know of a good place to get a new flex cable? I looked at etradesupply, but the shipping is too expensive. The port is 17.99, but the shipping to Canada is 31.99.
I bought 2 off amazon, but when I install it, everything works except the loud speaker. At first I thought it was a defective cable, so I tried the second one I bought as the spare.......still no sound.
At this point I thought I messed up my phone, but when I put the original one back, everything works again except the charging port.
Anyone have any experience with this? Know of a place the sells one that works?
Thanks
Where are you located? Ebay?
Since the N5 has built-in wireless charging, you could just buy a cheap qi charging pad to charge the phone wirelessly.
I'm in Canada.
I did think about eBay, but I'm worried it will be the same as the amazon one. I was hoping someone had ordered one from somewhere and can confirm it worked.
Are you in Toronto? Maybe post an ad on a buy sell trade forum for the part? Any local repair shops gave the part?
Sorry, I should have been more specific. I'm in Vancouver.
I have contacted several reputable businesses in Vancouver, but they want to charge to install the part. I understand their point though since the profit is in the labour.
I'm hoping I don't have to go that route since its substantially more expensive. The cheapest I have been qouted is $60.
I have opened up the phone and am comfortable installing it, so I'm hoping I can save some money doing it myself.
Is this the piece you need? A wireless charger could charge the phone if the USB port is able to transfer data.

Yup!
That's what I need. Have you bought from a place that you can confirm works?
The one I have works for sure because it actually came from an LG phone. I purchased two phones: 1 with a smashed glass, the other with a damaged emmc. I took the motherboard from the phone with a smashed glass and put it into the phone with a defective motherboard.
I have never purchased replacement parts from a third party except for non-oem pre-assembled LCD/digitizer/glass/frame from Aliexpress.
The USB replacments from Amazon look exactly like the original with the same number of contacts, etc.?

The amazon one I got, looks exactly like the one in the phone right now.....thats why I'm confused as to why it didn't work. I tried 2 and both the loudspeaker didn't work. Everything else works......however .
I'm not sure which vendor sold the part but were there any negative reviews or buyers mentioning this problem? Could it be something unique about your phone's speaker? I doubt it because the speaker for the d820 and d821 have the same part number.

There were only 2 reviews.....one said they had the sound problem and the other said it was fine.....I guess its hit or miss with third party parts.
It was the cheapest I found, so that may have something to do with it not working.
Amazon. Never buy cheap
OP purchased them from Amazon but I'm not sure of the price.
Any particular place you recommend?
Did you clean the original? 99%of the time its lint in it
I believe the OP has solved the problem.

I kind XDAer ( I won't mention who, unless they want me to say) sent me the original flex cable from their broken nexus 5.
I did try to clean the port, but it was still no good.
I did buy from Amazon, however I have to admit it was the cheapest one they had for sale. I guess you do get what you pay for.
has anyone bought one of these off ebay or the like and repaired a stretched USB port?
The USB port is expressing connection issues when plugged in for data. Charge deosn't seem to be issue.

I have replaced mine ,,pretty easy, did not get the part from ebay per say got it from a junk phone i bought off ebay,, if you do the repair yourself dont forget the little rubber o ring seal that goes around the port for water proofing it likes to stay down in the port hole when the board is removed. Also be careful handling the vibrator part , the leads are not the strongest . hth

you have to take the back off and thats it ,,you can get at the rest easy, just have patience , there are actually 2 seperate boards, kinda connected together, it is easier taking them both out then trying to get just the port board out, I think the port board has like 4 connections on it, also the vibrator is glued down really good. It may be easier with the battery removed but you can be the judge of that Good luck,, hth
Thanks again,
