OEM Samsung Cable??? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Anyone know where I can find the OEM usb cable that comes with our phones? I can find various OEM Samsung cables but not the ones that are exactly the same as ours...

OEM cable is ****

i dont mean to be a d***k bout your post but was it really that usefull? regardless if its **** or not, thats what im looking for and im asking where i can find it because ive looked through ebay, amazon etc and no go...

Hard to say where you can find that OEM cable. Have you tired Samsung Cellular Accessories on their home page?

$20.00USD, highway robbery...
Just saying.....
Hope thats it because that's what they are selling now.

lol yea it is a robbery... but ive seen that one cheaper at ebay, im looking for the one that comes with the phone... you know, the one that has a squared box around the micro and has a white "usb" icon.... my dog chewed mine so id just like to replace it and keep an original

Good luck with that cable my friend. I don't think you'll ever be able to get one unless you've got a friend in a cell store that will do a B & E for ya on a new box. BTW, if you ever do find one, never use it to ROOT or transfer data. I use it strickly as a charging cable.
Sorry!

lol theres gotta be an online store where i can buy it, i mean i know i can buy any other usb cable but i want one like the one that it came with... and why do you say that? thats the cable i used to do everything to my phone!

Read the forum about rooting your phone, almost everyone who knows anything about rooting will advise you not to use the stock Samsung cable.
Do as you please, its your phone my friend. Just saying.....

It seems a little thin, but I've used the OEM Samsung cable that came with the phone to flash many hundreds of times during testing of ODIN tar packages and Auto Root features. Never had an issue.

I get the picture my friend, you've been lucky from what I have heard but if its not broken, don't fix it. Good Luck in your search and give the dog some food, maybe he won't eat your phone next. jking........

jaja i do, shes just hyper active, and thanks... i just ordered a gold plated 15 ft one but im still searching for the oem... just so i can have it

Well if you give up monoprice.com might be a good place to not get robbed for a cable. I mean paying 5 bucks for Amazon's much longer, much stronger cable is a rip as well but thats the main one I use I also use the OEM one I just cant find it half the time.

I bought HTC OEM USB cables off of ebay for $0.99 each, and they are really good quality. Came from china, and took two weeks, and but worth the wait.

There's nothing to correct. The evo uses a micro (type d) connector. The cable on overstock is a mini (type c).

Bad HTC customer support

ok so I called HTC cause the 2 month old usb that came with my phone gave out on me I called Sprint and even went in store to see about getting it replaced they told me they don't replace accessories only cover the phone so I called HTC and was told they Dnt have any accessories for the ego a big WTF and said to call in the future I called twice no luck it only bothers me cause this phone is only 2 months old actually under 2 months so things shouldn't fall apart I Dnt mind paying for another but I mean this should be covered by them
Art if this is in the wrong forums
Thanks for all the help in advance jus looking for some advice from my fellow ego users

What USB did you break?? The cable?? The charger?? The phone port?? Your post is very vague. If its the cable you can buy one online just about anywhere for about $5, the charger you can get anywhere online or any USB charger at Best Buy will work as long as its at least 750ma. If its the phone port then I hope you have assurion or take it to a different sprint store to get a replacement.

Yea it was the usb cable I'm not a big fan of shopping online I was jus hoping they can replace I mean its 2 months old it seems kinda crazy to not make accessories for your most popular device as for best buy the only ones I can find are around 20 I'm trying to save a bit for the holidays and I mean I jus spent about 3oo on the phone and accessories these jus seems like bad customer support
And excuse me for my ghetto typing lol used to jus typing quick

Just order one online. Can pick one up for like 5$ like has been stated. The usb cable that came with or phone isn't any special htc cable, just had a sticker on it. And I wouldn't expect htc to sell cables as they aren't a retailer but a manufacturer.

[Q] usb otg

Can someone recommend where to buy the proper cable for connection to the Xoom so that one can connect USB devices? I've bought two so far, and the first one was the right connection to the Xoom, but didn't have a tight enough contact point. The second one did not supply enough power to the device.
TIA
This cable works great. Mine came yesterday.

I can't say which one to get, but I can say: do not go with the ones at meritline.com. They say OTG, but they're just charging cables. (followed someone's advice from another thread and now I'm waiting for one to ship from ebay)...
If you want it fast, and don't mind the price, you won't go wrong with the original Motorola cable: http://www.store.motorola.com/Camer...olor_map,price,size_name&searchRank=salesrank
+1 Using the Motorola cable with no issues. It's expensive but the convenience of knowing it'll work and shipped fast was worth it to me.

Also got this cable. I was quoted 2-4 weeks for shipping, but it only took 8 business days (10 calendar days). The guy even took a picture of the package when he shipped, kinda funny. The cable works perfectly.

Unfortunately, I can also confirm the meritline ones do not work... guess I'm going after the Moto one.
Just got the motorola branded OTG cable at best buy for 20 bux. I know there are cheaper alternatives but those reviews are so hit or miss.

Spare Battery and Charger

Anyone knows a good deal on these items?
I was at the T-mobile store earlier and saw a very nice package including a spare battery, a usb cable, and a spare-charger but it runs for $49.99
Edit: Found one! $9 (aftermarket battery and charging holder). I have one like this for my G2 and it worked great!!

Actually I saw one and it’s being sold by Samsung for about $24? I think. But that’s too much for me. The aftermarket battery is very cheap but I don’t expect it to have embedded NFC chip on it lol.. I had the same brand for my old G2. It worked great for over a year with absolutely no issue.
check this one out, i am thinking of ordering it! seems like a great deal for $34!

Are MHL cables basically the same??

Hi guys
I seen these cables as cheap as 5.00 up to 30.00 and up for this adapter
So did anyone try the cheap ones and do they work just as good as the Samsung adapters???
I find no difference. I bought dealerextreme.
Sorry for my english.
no problem thx
It's a standard connection type, so they should all be the same (although manufacturing quality may not be the same on some of those cheaper ones I guess).
i bought one at monoprice and the screen constantly flickers from the note. ive heard others say the same thing and that the official samsung mhl adapter does not do this. any truth to this?
I have a few HTC chargers at home and a car charger none of them work on the note.so even though the port may look the same there seem to be some differences.the same might apply for MHL cables as well.
On ebay there are some cheap adapters which described as "genuine" (search f.e for item 120834740772). Is it really genuine Samsung?
Has anyone bought and tried it?
I bought this:
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/samsun...-galaxy-s2-i9100-i9188-i9000-more-black-95031
Works fine for me.

chargers are a different entity, they will give a specific amount of current out so i wouldnt expect the mto charge other devices

Don't buy those. They are very bad quality, USB connector broken off. They are either Samsung QA failed item or knock off. The seller trying to trick you into believing it's OEM with packaging. Stay away.

Yes, I also thought there's something wrong there.
Too much to be be truth.
I got a cheap one and the screen does flicker to white noise, for a couple of milliseconds every now and then, so basically works perfect.
I bought a $10 one from amazon (ASIN: B005SV08SK) and it seems to work good. It came with an extra usb cable to power it too.
I'm glad I sold mine that came with the 4 infuses on Ebay back when we bought them. They were going for big bucks and I made out like a bandit
