Hi,
Does anyone know where to get other charger plugs to put on the HTC charger? I would like a US one. You can buy a whole kit of a new charger with all the plugs but that is kinda unnecessary I think.
I would also like the same info, as I would like a euro one and a US one for when I travel. I had 3 'heads' for my iPhone charger, and would like the 'heads' for the HTC charger too.
Any USB charger should work (I use several brands) so perhaps just cheaper to buy a generic american USB charger for a couple of quid off Ebay?
I wouldn't bother buying the charger plug... Just buy a new charger, I bought a Motorola V3 charger from ebay, and it works fine
Does anyone know of a good car charger will not effect the battery of the phone or does rapid charging? Is there one with a voltage regulator so its like charging from a wall outlet?
Also I was thinking about getting a AC car adapter, and just plug in my wall charger that came with the G2.
What do you guys think?
Look on Amazon for a Motorola micro USB charger. It's like $1.50 with free shipping. They accidentally sent me two of them. Works just fine.

I actually use my original G1 charger with a Mini USB -> Micro USB adapter that I bought for $1 shipped from hong kong on eBay, I ordered 5 of them for $5 and they sent me 10 of them on accident... I'm not complaining, now I can use all of my old mini USB cables for the PC as well
I've been looking for car chargers that output 1A.
So far have seen the belkin charger usb port/no cable $10 ebay and radioshack 1.2A corded charger $28.
I can't for the life of me find it sold separately anywhere, but the car charger that came with the N1 car dock works great. Even HTC doesn't have it on their site (that I can find). All they have now is USB car chargers to use with the data cable.
I am new so I can't link to it... but if you go to slickdeals dot net then on the front page there is a deal for the Motorola P513 rapid rate charger on Amazon.
I just jumped on this. Lots of good reviews from incredible, evo, and n1 owners even when using navigation. And it's $5.

If you have a frys electronics near you pick up one of these http://www.frys.com/product/5865763 or order online. Works great is outputs 1A. I refused to pay T-mobile 29.99 for a charger.
has anyone got one on ebay the cheap ones (are they good or keep away from them).
if no good what ones are good
I'm also on the market for a good car charger that will not screw up my phone. Came close to buying the cheapos on Ebay but like the previous poster didn't pull the trigger since I was worried one of those might damage my phone. Any recommendations would be appreciated (or feel free to second the ones that are already listed). It's definitely a necessity since I'll be using this as my primary GPS from now on in my car.
Tell us more about these car chargers that ruin batteries.

I got the HTC CC C300, definitely not cheap, but has 2 usb ports whit 1A in both of em, and looks sleek.
Includes one micro usb cable, only power, doesn't work as data cable.

Pay attention to how many amps the charger supplies. The OEM wall charger puts out 1A (1000 ma). It charges at a pretty good clip up to about 90%, to get the battery 'full' will take some extra time...
I bought this Motorola Charger, as mentioned earlier in this thread, and it was worked very well for me. It is rated to put out 950 ma, so just short of the wall charger.

Just so people know, the highest charging current I have ever seen my G2 take is about 771 mA. This data was taken with Battery Monitor Widget. So I don't think it makes any difference if the charger provides 800 mA or 1.0 A.
I got a full kit of an unopened Belkin chargers for iPod/iPhone for 6 bucks at a goodwill and used the car-usb charger and a micro-usb data cable to charge my phone. The charger is really reliable. I've been using it for my G1 for one year and G2 for half a year and there was never any drop in batter performance.
I always thought the cables didn't matter that much, but the charger is the key to ruining the battery.
As to the amps and voltage: On the back of my battery it's labelled 3.7V 1300mA, and on the phone it's 5V 1A. I doubt it's those 1 buck charger is really gonna have a good grip on those values.
I've been very happy with the Dexim dual-USB charger. It plugs into the 12V socket and can output 2 amps (or 1 amp on both ports simultaneously). I bought the iPhone version for the special cable. Other smartphones can use any regular mini or micro USB cable. Great for charging up two devices at once, and it can provide enough current for devices like the iPad.
http://www.dexim.net/us/products/car/DCA154.html
I see they have a version that will kick out 3.1A (!), although I don't think the DZ will take more than about 650-700 mA anyway. It would be nice if someone tweaked the phone's USB firmware or driver to accept a higher current...
Hello everyone,
after micro USB change (I used it for approx. 20 times in a year and even it caused disconnections with original cable) I've started searching for good universal cable which is compatible with Galaxy s6 too - Blitzwolf double sided cable (I was using that for 1,5 year) oficially is not compatible, and now they aren't producing it. I'm from Poland so shipping ways are important. I need universal cable - to charge a lot of different devices (ex. Galaxy S6, Sony SRS-X2 speaker - this one has problems with blitzwolf cable, it's too loose, Xiaomi Powerbank (to charge powerbank and later devices using this cable)
I dropped my s6 while charging and I had charging port like a cave I can't charge it whithout leaving it like a sleeping baby ??? OMG Samsung is cheap as he'll how come this devices still using port why they don't just use some types of magnets connectors
I've tested Anker (30cm) and Aukey (CB-D10) cables. Both are perfect and well made. Every piece hits 2A on 5V and 1.6A on 9V.
Go for this one ! Anker PowerLine+
I've got one since 1 year and half
Unfortunately i would have to get that cable from amazon, what's not cheap way (I'm from Poland). I will stay with actual cables - they were priced at ~2,5$ each. I wanted Anker one.
Anker PowerLine cables are very well made. I use their cables, wall chargers, and portable chargers. MicroUSB is a pretty weak design that will eventually fail but my Ankers seem to be holding up.
Hi all, just ordered a Pixel XL to replace my 4 core failing Nexus 6P. I have no idea what kind of charger is coming with it, and even if its OEM, I'd like to have 2. I have read many threads about the non PD compliant chargers not providing rapid charge, and am wondering what the consensus is on using a Nintendo Switch charger? My local Best buy has the official Google Pixel XL charger for $34.99, and the official Switch AC adapter is $10 less. Has anyone tried this, or have any thoughts on using this? With all the stories about nonPD if I have to, I'll just get the official google one, but was wondering if this was an option.
Thank you!
The Pixel XL comes with a USB-C charger and a USB-A to USB-C cable, so any standard USB-A rapid charger will work.

Thanks for the reply. I was under the impression from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/accessories/usb-c-pd-chargers-google-pixel-xl-t3474205
that only certain chargers provide fast charge. I did not buy the phone new so I don't know if it comes with the standard google charger or not.
belkin type c rapid charger should be available for cheap at your local walmart/target/best buy. pretty good quality cable for the price.
My switch charger ended up damaging the port after continued use. I recommend saving up for the official one
Tried many chargers, only the original Google ones seem to charge at rapid charging speed. Oh Belkin car charger ones does as well.
I tried a NS charger (HAC-002 USZ) on a Pixel XL a day ago and it worked fine and did rapid charging.
Mine didn't come with a charger (bought off eBay). I bought a so called fast charger (can't remember brand but it looked legit Qualcomm fast charge capable) and it says it's fast charging but it takes about twice as long to charge as my old OnePlus 5 did.
I've read countless comments here about how dash charging requires a compatible charger and cable. However. I recently made an unexpected discovery that certain cables sold on Amazon support dash charging with the Oppo branded VOOC chargers (but apparently not the OnePlus branded charger). I discovered this by accident when I plugged this cable into my Oppo charger:
Cable Matters USB-C Cable (USB A to USB C Cable/USB C to USB Cable) in Black 6.6 Feet https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00S8GU544/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_dkTJBbN069J3Z
Using this cable I get the beep, the blue light and the dash charging icon, and my OP6 does in fact charge at the faster rate. Wondering if it was a fluke, I bought a second cable and got the same results. This is great since these cables are 6 feet long, thin and flexible, and appear to be well made.
Now here's where it gets really weird: both cables only dash charge when plugged into the Oppo branded wall charger. When connected to the OnePlus charger they only charge at the normal rate. The Oppo charger looks exactly the same only with different branding. I do not know why these cables seem to work with one but not the other. I cant think of why they would support dash charging at all except that maybe they're made for the Chinese domestic market.

Is it safe for your cellphone?
From what I understand, OP has a way of knowing if one of their cables is connected. If using a generic cable, it will default to slow charging.
Seeing that OP fast charging is based off of OPPO fast charging, it should be fine.
I would assume the OPPO brick doesn't care who's cable you're using as long as it can support the higher charging rate
Ordered both, the USB/C cable was just delivered, 3ft is long enough. Found it on Amazon for $5 and the OPPO charger on eBay for $10, that's about a 1/2 price of Oem from OP site.($8 and $20 respectively) It's always good to have a spare 'just in case'.
Interesting find.

I think it's a sure bet since OnePlus and OPPO are under the same corporate umbrella. They might even have the same R&D for accessories.

I have read people recommending to get Oppo VOOC charger brick, as it supports Dash Charge.
Oppo and OnePlus are same companies.
Yes, its recommended to just buy oppo charger / cables. Both are the same and support dash (same name with vooc) . It's alot cheaper too.

Sometimes its the only option.
I am in Australia and the only charger with Australian pins is available through Oppo.
OnePlus does not manufacture AU chargers currently.
I have the official oneplus dash charger and the dash charging is activated with all the cables I have (an old huawei cable, and 2 generic ones) , but it took 3 to 4 seconds for the phone to activate dash charging while it is almost instantaneous with the official cable.
act OPPO and ONEPLUS is made in China and same parent company...instead of dash charges, OPPO call it VOOC
What about OPPO rapid (aka dash) car chargers for OnePlus?
If you can wait for shipping from China:
$8 - https://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-O...pter-Cable-For-OnePlus-6-5T-5-3T/223031157260
$13 - https://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-O...e-C-Cable-For-Oneplus-3T-5-5T-6/263870632520?
Perhaps this $12 VOOC will work? https://www.amazon.com/TOOGOO-Type-C-Charger-Carregador-iPhone/dp/B07HFNB3HZ/
Hi all
Thanks very much to the o.p. for providing this solution to wanting a longer-than-OnePlus's-maximum-150cm (4ft 11in) length cable that actually fast-charges...

I'll be purchasing a "Cable Matters" 6.6ft cable based on the 1st post's suggestion, however if I can avoid buying the "Oppo branded VOOC charger" I would.

I was hoping to clear this up before proceeding with the order.
Anyone else able to get non-OnePlus OEM cables fast-charging with the OnePlus oem power supply wall charger?
For Indian Users:-
SKYVIK Blaze Nylon Braided Type C Dash Charging Cable for One Plus 3 3T 5 5T 6 6T (5V/4A)-2 Metre https://www.amazon.in/dp/B07GTX2F61/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_yIy7BbQMREE97
This Cable supports Dash charging and it is considerably long as compared to stock Cable.
Has anyone found a 10ft cable that is compatible with warp charging?
BlitzWolf BW-P12 supports dash 20 on my op6t in case anyone needs a powerbank with Warp charge. they do not advertise it anywhere, it just works. Also the advertised low power charge does not work.
