So I've had my tab since May the 12th (I just looked) and the cable is coming apart by the tablet end. I am never hard on it so I'm rather annoyed.
I went to BestBuy and those idiots told me no way no how was I getting one from anyone but Samsung. (Sure... kids) They made me so annoyed I looked at the receipt date and looked up the policy in the store. I was going to return the tablet just to get a new cable. (Been over 30 days)
Went to Walmart and they sell the cable+usb charging brick for $49.97. No way!
Anyone else had a problem with the cable?

It still works... But for how long?
They are plentiful and cheap on eBay. I have like 8.

in case of zombie apocalypse, break glass.... then swing ;-)
the cables are very cheap and any high current charger seems to work ok, at least the ones for phones that require some kind of short or resistor across the USB data lines.

I bought a couple of these on the 1st and received them today. Branded Samsung and look just like the one I got with my Tab.

I bought one that can both sync and charge (with switch) in the shop at my area : http://goo.gl/UQUdU and it cost me about $2, maybe you can try at dealextreme or other online shop based on hk (they're usually cheap).
Yeah I have the same problem with you. This cable is real crap. It is still working and charging. But when it comes to connecting to pc it is just refuse to work.

Your picture reminds me of my good old iPhone 3Gs-times. There the cable had this on both sides
Well I finally got around to buying another cable. Mine got to where it would charge really slow. Take 10 hours without using it to fully charge it.
I bought one from Tiger Direct. Been buying from them for 15+ years. Its made by iLuv. Works so good. Charges it in fast mode like its supposed to! Its built much better than the stock cable. I think its going to last.

I have ALWAYS purchased spare and extended batteries for all my phones from Anker, all the way back to my Google G1 phone. They always worked great, and support has been fantastic.

I needed a few extra MicroUSB cables for the car, and was tired of ordering the cheap crap from Ebay (which often take 3 weeks to arrive from China).
These Micro USB cables from Anker came as a set of 3. They are very well made (yes you can immediately feel the difference when handling them). They come in a nice box, with a little insert seeking feedback in the product, which is why I am leaving this review.
For me, the most IMPORTANT aspect is the fit... and this Micro USB cable from Anker fits my Samsung Note 3 like a glove! The is no wiggle when attached. This was something I always experience with those cheap cables. Often times my phone was not fully charged when I thought it was supposed to be because of a crappy cable not fitting properly.
The "micro" side of the cable is small, and fits nicely in the various phone cases I have for my phone, so absolutely no issues there.
The length is fine.. I wanted them shorter because they are for the car, and do not want extra long cables getting in the way when I drive.

How much did you pay for them? The link you posted says they are unavailable.

And they would offer no support for USB 3.0. If I were purchasing spare cables specifically for my Note 3, I'd make them USB 3.0 as I have quite a few devices that support it.

I can't understand why would anyone need spare cables. It only fits one at a time, the original one from Samsung fits perfectly and doesn't flop at all, it charges faster then any other 3rd party cable and it's already pretty short for a car. I understand spare batteries but I can't see any point in cables. Unless you break the original one but then I would get another one from Samsung, not some Chinese stuff.
I have one next to my bed, one downstairs, one hooked up to my computer, two in my car (dual charger), and one at work. Might fit one at a time, but my phone is rarely at the right place at the right time.

Hi, I recently attempted to fix my Hisense Sero 7 Pro tablet Micro USB Port, I got the old port off, but it looked like the pins were still on the board? ._. So I pit the soldering iron to the pins on the board and I think I may have just screwed the whole thing up.. I ordered a replacement part, but its no use to me if I can't use the board anymore.. I took pics, any help would be nice. I have I think .8mm solder and a 30w soldering iron with the small tip.
Same here
I have a Sero pro that is not charging. I think the USB port is messed up. Not sure how to fix it. Never soldered something this small.
I just wanted to post this up for anyone who may have had issues with their sero 7 pro's. I have 2 units for my kids, which after many times of charging have had broken/faulty usb connections. In a desperate attempt to keep the same table w/ their games/save progress intact I searched for a way to fix the units. Finding my basic soldering skills not good enough I went to ebay. I found a guy who repaired both my kids tablets (as well as my nexus 7 tablet) for a reasonable cost and shipped them back to me very quickly.
If anybody needs a usb repair, tell him Ryan sent you and he'll fix you up too! Now my kids are back on track & their units are fully charged as they should with a new usb port!

Successfully used myers to repair 2 of my Sero 7 Pros. Would use him again. Thanks for the tip!
So my Gear S does not fully latch on to the charging cradle anymore it only adheres to the back what has happened. I don't want to get a new one that I have to pay alot for so for now I have a hair tie to hold it together that is the only way it will charge for now. However I don't want it to ruin my watch to the point where it will not charge at all. Any ideas or solutions

Try this .....
Ok so I just saw the charger the top piece broke off a little which holds the cradle in place. So for now I will try the pill bottle method if not hair tie it will be.
Both my clips broke
Both of mine broke and now it's a real PIA.
I really can't believe Samsung came up with such a horrible design when such a simple and effective method like what LG or even Apple is going to use exists. I still enjoy my gear S but now that both clips are broken, I really am ticked as it's making charging a PIA.
I've already made the decision to switch to the LG Urbane LTE the moment it's available in the US and while I don't know when that will be, I'm definitely going to make the move. IMO it looks 1000% better too.
In the mean time, I just jumped on Amazon and via Prime ordered the cheap charger only cradle for the Gear S. Due to arrive Tuesday so I'll post back the findings but the dozen plus reviews show it works perfectly. I don't really use the built in battery on the existing one much if at all since the Gear S holds a charge so long.

Just call Samsung and they will replace it.
Hey there ! Im looking for Wireless Charger for G3. Does it matter which one i choose ?
I like to buy things on site called "TinyDeal" So can someone recommend me like 3 different Wireless chargers from this site ? Im noob in this and i dont want to do something wrong..
Which variant of the G3 do you own? That matters
Would the Samsung S6 wireless charger work? Does the wireless charging work with phone casing? Example TPU casing. Using D855.
Just make sure the charger support Qi standard which G3 is using
Get the cheapest one, because they all charge at the same rate. The only difference is the range and some features
Today i bought the easychee T300 charger. I know its a very expensive charger, but I think it is great to have 3 coils, so the positioning of my phone on the charger matters not so much.
Tomorrow (≈12h) I can tell you more.
Ok
I am on D855 and tried original (WCD100 or something like that) So far i like it because it's stand and charger...Nice for White office !
So every charge at same rate ? That's new for me.
Thanks for info guys !

I'm using the easycharger T300 now. And I really like it so far.
I left my Moto 360 for the night charge near my bed, when i woke up this morning the screen was white with some weird dots
now it looks like strips all over the screen with various colors can someone pinpoint what is the component that cause the trouble ? or if it can be fixed without opening up the device.
this is a new device i bought from Amazon Italy (i live in israel) about 2 weeks ago.

Same problem for me
I had the same issue with my old one and got it replaced. Did you get it wet by chance?
Oh my gosh! I was just reading through XDA after finally getting my replacement watch and came across this thread.
I purchased a Moto 360 gen 2 for Christmas and in January, my display also did this. I had a tempered glass screen protector on it, and the screen was never hit hard. Also, the only time the watch got wet was occasionally while washing my hands. One day while at work, I looked at my watch and noticed the display all weird. It looked like food coloring drops in water. It was very strange because that morning, it worked perfectly fine!
I sent the watch in under warranty, and it took Motorola a whole month to do anything about it. After calling them up in February, they finally gave me voucher code to make a replacement (mine was made via Moto Maker btw). Alas, the bezel was out of stock, so I had to wait until late March to finally get my replacement with the exact same design as the on that broke. And yet, after all that, I still had to pay $20 for some reason. The Moto rep I called said they'd refund me since it should've been an even exchange, but they have yet to do anything. (Their customer support is HORRIBLE).
I'm just interested to see that other people have had the exact same issue as me.
Edit: Does anyone know what causes this issue? Bad display? Bad waterproof seal?
Mine didn't necessarily go bad after a night's charge. As I said, it was working up until like 3 hours later.
