Would this external charger be safe for geniune batteries for my vibrant?

Thanks!
Anyone approve? Just curious asap cause i wanna order it today!
I wouldn't recommend those. I have the real external charger by Samsung and it's really worth it especially for people like me who will use the vibrant for a long time.

Check the specifications:
If the input/output is the same with the batteries, then I think it's ok. Besides it's cheap. Why don't you just order and try it, and share your experience with others.
I am about to order this:

So, I was just reading on here about the mysterious four prongs under the camera behind the battery door and someone mentioned something about possibly being able to support NFC with a replacement battery door. So, I got to thinking and googled about it and I came across this over at Android Central:
http://www.androidcentral.com/htcs-ceo-says-lte-phones-coming-2011-will-support-nfc-too
I know its from Dec. but it still caught my eye.
So, does anyone know or think that it is possible to get NFC support on the TB with a software upgrade to 2.3 and a new battery door with the sensor?
Pretty sure the prongs are for inductive charging.

I agree with this...
I also agree; however, I'm unsure as to why there are 4 prongs for that... But well maybe there is some factor to inductive charging I'm missing. But I seriously doubt NFC will be supported regardless.

I just don't see the point in it. You wouldn't be able to really use it anywhere yet. Inductive charging would be neat if the back piece isn't any bigger than it currently is, or isn't much bigger I should say.
Well, looks like it is for the wireless charging:

I would still like to have NFC support. Oh well. have to wait another 2yrs.
It can be done. But it's unlikely.
NFC can be super thin and connect via bluetooth. If it's built into the case and receives its power via the prongs, it could work. The prongs can be just for power purposes. Transfer of data from the device would work over BT.
I tried searching but it doesn't seem that anyone has found a good solution yet. Does anyone know if there is an external battery charger/dock for the X10? My USB connection is nearly dead, and I'm starting to think this might be the cheaper option over sending it in for repair.
I doubt there is a dock forthwith x10 since you'll have to put it upside down.
I think buying a new USB cable is going to be cheaper than getting a dock. If there is.

For those who are looking for the Motorola Rapid Charger locally, I ran into a guy at Best Buy who was the regional manager for the mobile department. He too has a Note. I explained the issues I'm having and what we all came up with as a resolution. Funny his he already had that Motorola Rapid charger.
Anyways, he pointed out the car dock kit
For the Droid X and X2. It comes with the very same charger we all are looking for. Here's the bonus: it was originally 49.99 but on clearance for 24.99. Not as good as ebay for 7.59 but I figured I had a 50 gift card after I took all those other chargers and cables back. So I bought the kit!
Here's the REAL bonus: not only does it have all the stuff for a car dock (although its for a Droid), but when.I got to the register, it rang up for 9.99!
I bought all 3 they had in stock.... ;-)
Check your local BB for availability if you don't want to wait for it to ship from ebay or amazon.
Sadly though, I'm still not charging while in use... :-(

What issue were you having with the note? And do you mind posting a picture or link to the rapid charger you bought? I tried searching for it on Google but came up with a few different style chargers and am unsure which one your talking about. Thanks!
Can you provide a link, SKU, UPC, something we can search or reference?
Sounds like quite a deal
Thanks.
Here's a link to it on amazon. I couldnt find it on best buy. Im sure you'll need to locate it in the store.

I purchased the Kensington dual port charger for iPad/iPhone from CompUsa. It has 2.1 amp and 1.0 amp ports. I used it in my 2008 Honda Civic Si and my car electrical started acting possessed. My power doors were locking/unlocking; alarm system wouldn't always work; drained battery needing me to jump start. Had left charger in lighter port w/o anything attached. Don't know if it was defective but car has returned to normal after I got rid of it might try another

Imo just modify a USB cable as another post outlined.. Short the middle two data pins or splice the cable and short them then use a regular car charger with a USB port and the modified cable. Works for me

So you are just using the cable for charging? The dock does not fit right?

You are correct. Just the cable.

So coming from the Evo 4g (og not LTE) about a third of my evo's life it was running with no micro usb ability do to the port failing entirerly .
"had to buy a external battery charger and a micro sd reader, but it wasnt that much of a bothersome thing actually prefered it because i had 2 1800mah batteries and a 3500mah so while the 35 was on charge i could use the 2 18's"
My question is, Being as i CANNOT externally charge the battery on the htc one and i cannot externally alter its files. How much more durable is the One's usb port compared to the common to fail Evo's usb port.
id like to know this so i now how delicate i need to be with the port or if i can go slapping it around without worry XD, by that of course i mean if i need to buy a dock for it or if it isnt that big of a problem.
also ive heard the micro usb port also has micro HDMI ability??? ive looked really close at the port and i dont really get how this could be
Yes it has HDMI capability, with an mhl adapter specifically for the phone. In terms of the micro USB, I think its pretty well set in. If you have gotten a hold of this phone already, you know what I mean. It's pretty durable.

HI ,
im thinking about adding wireless charging to my nook , i know it can be done ive already read the nook color post on xda here. my concern though is that the specs of the gear im looking at at 700 mv and i know the tablet normally needs 2.1 amp to charge. i have the same problem as most the cables are fu*k*ng GARBAGE and im tired of wasting my time going to stores, ill crack mine open and just solder in the wireless QI pad instead.
BUT
i want to charge my tablet at its normal pace 2.1 amp not the .7 that the pad i am looking at for my sgs 3 has, i was going to just buy two of the qi pads off ebay but is their one that i can get that will do 2100 milliamp instead of the 700 milliamp one i saw for my sgs3 ?
i mean it will charge at the trickle charge pace but i want it up to speed
any thoughts or links ? im ordering parts monday.
thanks
Nothing ? Well parts are on their way ...anyone have any idea where I need to look ? Inquired with the gent who did the NC but no response will post update after I break it then fix it

So how did it go? I'm thinking of doing the same thing with my NT. I have conductive copper tape to make the connections.
Were you able to find a decent pad to give you a 2.1 amp charge?
Thanks.
