You can, but it will be painfully slow. Slow to the point that if you happen to be using it while plugged in, it will likely be discharging.

That sucks. Thanks for the answer.

[Q] Charging US bought device in the UK

I bought a Nexus 7 in the US. I presume that I can use a regular two pin to three pin adaptor and I won't damage it?
Just thought I would check before I plug it in!

It's a world-wide adapter; should have no problems at all.
Though nearly any decent USB charger will work at the high current setting if you're worried.
Ta David....all working OK!

Won't charge properly..??

Has anybody else had charging issues with their Nexus7? Mine ran out of juice this morning and shut down on me so I plugged in in to the original charger and its been on charge to 9 hours uninterrupted... yet just picked it up for some browsing sitting in the garden and the battery is only at 35% charged??? Something not right there surely?
Any advice

I noticed that mine will only charge with the factory charger so far.

Did you also use the original cable?
Yes, original everything....

Since posting this question, its been back on charge and as of now its up to 43%... not sure what's happening or if this was because it was completely dead I.e. wonder if the charger stops after a pre-set period??

There is a rather large thread on this issue. Something about which kind of cable and other issues. I have to use the OEM or it will not charge.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
3hrs later and fully charged.... odd, perhaps a freak issue... so to confirm, used original charger and cable from the beginning... 9hrs to 35% then a further 3hrs with a disconnect to get to 100%
Thanks for assistant all,

[Q] Phone won't charge

I found a great deal on a Nexus 4 on Craigslist. The seller says the phone does not charge at all but turns on when its plugged in. I would like to get a second N4 for the wife, especially for this nice of a deal and if it would be an easy fix. Just looking on some feedback as to what everyone thinks the problem could be and what else I could ask the seller before I make any kind of deal.

If I were you I would stay away from it. I would definitely get a new one from the Play Store.
Ask him how did happen? Was the phone's components exposed to water? :beer:

He says he thinks it could be the USB port, but I dunno. He says he can transfer files back and fourth using it on the computer, and screen comes on when plugged in, it just won't charge up.

I had similar issue. Phone discover the USB but fail with charge. I tried other USB cable (Nokia one) and it works perfect.

so the USB port works when he wants to connect it to the computer, but it won't work when he plugs it into the wall and tries to charge it?

Correct. USB works for file transfer only. It will not charge using wall charger or computer.
