USB type C cable - OnePlus 2 Accessories

Hello
I want to know that can I rely on third party USB type C cables or should buy only the original one??
Third party cable: boat USB type C cable
As there are chances of damages to your phone while using third party accessories
Thanks

I have the same issue. While I don't mind buying the stock cable, I wanna know if other cables can be used? There was some issue I had seen regarding resistors or something.

The issue you are referring to was ironically with the stock OnePlus cable and not specifically third party ones. I've used reviews on Amazon as a good guide for an aftermarket cable.

Currently there is a Google engineer testing and reviewing all the type c cables on amazon. Go by his reviews and you will be sweet. The amount of cables his is giving bad reviews is incredible!
Here is the link to his reviews.

I have purchased one of that Anker brand cable but yet to try it. Based on the testing done by a google engineer involved in Chromebook Pixel project, the cable you've asked should work just fine with OP2.. See the review here:

Hope that helps.

I have bought 2 of those (the 1,2m version) and I cannot recommend them for sure. The first one died about a week after buying it. The second one is alive after almost a month although I'm getting ghost touches using it with my op2. (Bought both from Gearbest although I don't think it matters they were official with the genuine sticker...

I've had good experiences with BlitzWolf USB type-C and micro-USB cables. Have ditched the OnePlus cable that came with my OP2 as it was killing my non-OnePlus chargers, and replaced it with a couple of the BlitzWolf Type-C to Type A 2.0 cables (USB3.0 is useless anyway with the 1+2). No issues at all so far.
Can't post link (first 10 posts and all), but they can be found pretty cheap on Banggood.

My stock cable started charging slow.. Took to service center and for India the warranty for accessories is only 6 months, when the rest of the world it's 1 year.
Had to buy a new one.. But a cable from Ebay.in and it's working quite well.. Looks like stock cable but a bit lower quality.

Hi!
And what about the OTG cables? Can anyone working USB-C (Male) to USB-A (Female) OTG cable for OnePlus2 recommend working? No adapter (from USB-C micro-USB) solutions for care!

I've got 3 of these:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B011995DDO/
They've been recommended by Benson Leung, the Google engineer who has been testing USB-C cables, the OnePlus cable, however, he said it wasn't fit for purpose.
The reason he said they were bad is because the resistor used is not up to the purpose.

Greetings all. Just picked up a 10.1 from a local BB. super excited to open it up in a couple of hours.
As far as accessories, can someone verify that the travel charger and the usb cable that came with the 7" galaxy tablet will work with this 10.1" as well?
Any recommended place to get these two from?
cellphoneshop seems to be the place to get some cheap $3-$5 chargers and usb cables.
any other sites?
I refuse to pay the obscene $20 and $35 that samsung is charging for the cables and chargers....
thanks
I believe the 7" tab stuff will work. I'm going to confirm that today after work.

If you actually try to buy one, you will see they are all backordered.
Hmmm strangely reminiscent of what happened when i got my cappy on launch date, prepare for a couple of months without any accessories or cases available. Oh well...

Sigh, If thats the case then by tab is going straight back to best buy in a week
The 7 inch tab stuff works fine on the 10.1. The usb adapter is backorder at samsung and does not appear anywhere else.
I went to my local Best Buy this weekend and saw a space for USB connection kit on the shelf. The sales guy couldn't find it in the internal system or on their website though. The SKU was 2837365 and he said it was an accessory previously discontinued for the 7" tab that is coming back for both. Not sure if anybody else saw this. I think I saw someone else posted they saw the same thing at another website forum too.

Not quite what we're talking about here... The USB adapter is used for connecting thumb drives, external hard drives, etc...

Yes it will, one of the features of honeycomb is the ability to do USB hosting. I haven't bought it yet, but I believe the keyboard dock has USB ports. Now I don't have any reports saying that anyone has tried it out yet, but thats what I wouldlook in to

It does NOT have USB ports but does have a pass-through of the 30-min Samsung Connector they "claim" allows you to use the USB -or- HDMI adapters. I have neither to test this but I have the keyboard dock and there is only the 30-min and a headphone jack.

USB adapters, Samsung Geniune vs generic

Hey. As my G Tab 10.1 making its way the my home from the USA in these days, I want to buy a USB adatper. I looked at Ebay and I found a lot of generic USB adapters, which cost about 5 $ and the Samsung Genuine adapter at about 20 $. Is there realy a different between a genuine one to a generic one?
Only real difference is build quality, they work just the same.
Thanks. I think I will go for the generic one. Is there a chance it will damage my device?
I suppose any thing unofficial has the potential to do some damage, shorting something out etc... But I think you'll be extremely unlucky if that happened, as I'm sure they sell them to 100s if not 1000s people and not only for one type of tablet.
Swyped from my finger, to your face on my Samsung Galaxy Note, using Tapatalk!
I just got a bunch ordered off eBay and they were only 1 amp. Tablets will not charge on 1A without a hack (galaxytabhacks.com/galaxy-tab-10-1-hacks/how-to-enable-usb-charging-on-your-computer-and-all-usb-charging-adapters-on-your-galaxy-tab-10-1/) but I suspect you will ruin your battery that way, Samsung disabled it for a reason I would imagine.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!
I got a real samsung charger for $13 of Amazon 2 weeks ago. Price is up to $15 but I don't have to worry about slow charging or special fixes. I ordered from the HollyCellular guy. Wasn't Prime but got here (shipped from LA to South East) in 2 days.

I'd go bootleg for the usb dongle adapter but not the charger. Read too many complaints about them.

$30 gets an SD and USB OEM reader. That does not break the bank for most of us. I bought an extra after market power cored, longer than the stock one. Does not charge when hooked up to the PC and yes, I've rooted the USB script to charge when hooked up to the PC. Yet the stock power cored works fine.
Go figure. From now on I'm a OEM purchaser with the exception of brand names like Logitec and others.

Does it charges your tablet if you plug an USB charger ?
Can you connect an USB cable to your PC and use it for file transfer ?

I got one back in December and I have to say, I really like it. At first I was afraid it was not going to work, but once it arrived and I tried it with my sandisk flash drive 8gb and my other 3 flash drives. I was really happy with the outcome and how easy it is to use it.

Charging cable

Heyo!
A few weeks ago I sent my LG G4 into the service because of faulty connector ( known issue that makes device to stay on bootloading screen ) and then for a faulty camera. After it has been returned, I saw a BIG, HUGE and SIGNIFICANT problem: charging with the original USB Data Cable ( which came with the phone ) takes more than 3 hours to get to full battery. The time was never great, but it was never like this. I also have a small USB Charging Only cable ( which came with a portable battery that I bought ) which charges the phone in about 1h 30-40m ( or something like that ) from 5% to 100%. The thing is that the small one has been damaged ( almost like the iphone chargers do, but on the other end ) and I need a new one. So can anyone suggest some cheap USB Charging Only cables?
I use the cable from my Galaxy S4 and that works fantastic!

Help you on what man? Suggest a cheap USB cable? At what part of the world?
If it's cheap then it's unbranded. If it's unbranded how can one refer to it?
You want links to cables from eshops?
The world is full of USB cables. Just try cables from your older phones, or if you don't have, from phones of friends or family.
In the end, just buy one. They' re... cheap!

Cheap sould mean cheap in most parts of the world, right? I would have said 'thanks' for a damn link that led me to some usb charge only cable for my phone. If i had any other cable that would work, from me or anyone i know, would i still be here asking for that only so i can get a frustrated answer from you? Thanks for you devine help and advice because i can now die in peace. Please close this thread. Case solved.

Me too, it used to charge fast, now it's so slow, I change the cable, it's way better... but cheap cable they gave.
Hello,
Same problem here, yesterday my usb cable shows me 4 hours to charge while he usually tells me an hour even changing decision so I took another usb cable (the one in my X98 tablet Air III) and worries disappeared. I do not know why and how, but good .. LG really starting to disappoint me (bootloader block, problems with Rom, load, heating, autonomy ..) ..

Dash Car Charger

Does anyone know where to buy one of these? They've been out of stock for a long time on the Oneplus website.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using XDA-Developers Legacy app
I am waiting also. I don't know of any other place to purchase as OnePlus is out of stock, other stores like eBay, Amazon, etc are out of stock as well.
I have read that another option is the oppo car charger and this also works with dash charging.
The Oppo one, from photos I have seen looks exactly the same as the OnePlus charger.... Except Color
If I had a guess I would say that Oppo make, the OnePlus charger. But I could be wrong.

*P/S : I am using Resurrection Remix 5.8.2 Nougat Official ROM
The USA Here, and I just noticed today. OP just took down the Car Chargers from their website totally.
Also, sad to say, here in the states. I can't find the OPPO VOOC charger, from either eBay or amazon. Only the House Variant.... I'm halfway tempted to buy it and buy this
https://www.amazon.com/BESTEK-Power...id=1490371617&sr=8-22&keywords=power+inverter
Basically, a DC to AC Power Inverter, hook up the OPPO VOOC Charger there, and then find a USB cable that works with DASH...
IDK, I WANT to buy it from OP, but I can't =/
EDIT: Here's a BLOG POST from OP About the availability of the Dash Chargers!

This is the one I am really curious about on eBay. The seller has two ads up for the same charger, one for DASH and one for VOCC. Output 5v/4.5A so enough power, and still a dual charger. If I know this was legit, would buy over stock for the second USB

The official Google store have them for 9$ BUT THEY SHIP ALMOST by END OF NOV. now i was wondering if anyone knows of some third party extensions that are available on Amazon or so.. And if anyone knows what specs are we looking for in such converts so we search for the right ones..
Feedback after using it, the mic fails most of the timea (30th November)
It needs to have the DAC in the adapter. Don't know what that is called. Look for digital adapter?
although you should wait for it to come at the end of nov
there is some in amazon but mostly bad or untasted
the adapter it self-have a dac & amp so all the sound process handled by the adapter
so if you pick it a bad one it will sound bad
https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_...sprefix=usb+c+to+3,aps,359&crid=2C6833WQKUZDR
Yes, I'm waffling on this whole removing the headphone port thing. Now you have some choice in the DAC you get and can change it if you don't like it, opens the market for some that actually care about good sound to make a good DAC dongle. I'm on the lookout for something to pair with my triplefi.
Also now the headphone port comes out the bottom of the phone where it belongs.

I agree, Googles will be the first choice, but a month and a half after releasing the phone for it to be available, it doesn't make sense.. Hence looking for a solution during that time..

In general I'm disappointed in USBC. This was supposed to be great but all these options are damn confusing. The connector is capable of so much but there is no standard to search for capabilities and compatibility.

Exactly my point.. Lets see
In 2020
When you want a new adapter or headset or charger or any usbC accessories then you can just buy the first thing you see in Amazon
BUT now you can't do that most of the usbC accessories don't follow the standard and could damage your device
The only option is to go for oem or certified accessories by oem
Major headphone companies like Beats, V-Moda etc. that have those exchangeable 3.5mm wires make wires that both are male 3.5mm and usb-c.

Cause I still have a premium functioning headphones that has those exchangeable 3.5mm that I bought 2 years ago. Don't want to shell out another $200+ for a bluetooth version and ending up with 2 headphones. And this way you don't have to carry that small adapter

If I could get a 2.5mm to USB C adapter like the one pictured above that worked with the Pixel 2 XL that would be the best of both worlds. I did some searching but was unable to find any, links?
You will have one when your device shows up. Their is one included.

The image above was found at Walmart. After reading an article about not to buy cheap usb-c, I'm kinda of hesitant to pull the trigger and get this. That's why I was hoping that the major headphone companies would invest making it instead.
I'd love to see something like this that can connect directly to my headphones with whatever it needs inline to connect to the Pixel 2. That would essentially solve any problems with existing headphones and would still only have the one cable to the phone.
Guess I can't post links yet but was trying to link NewFantasia Replacement Audio Upgrade Cable for Sennheiser HD598 / HD558 / HD518 Headphones 1.2meters/4feet on Amazon.
HTC U11 and Essential Adapter both confirmed working.
i have 2 of them from my Moto Z Force and will try them tomorrow. if it works then THESE would work which are Prime and 2 for $8

I have faith in Google's product, it's about waiting for 2 months to get an extra adaptor..
