Hi guys,
Got my Z1 Compact from O2 and they don't provide chargers.
Could someone do me a solid and tell me what the output ratings are on the charger which comes with it?
I'm currently using a Nexus 7 charger which has a 2A output and am a bit concerned.
Cheers

Hi, I'm using the same charger. The phone should regulate itself and only suck in what power it needs, a 2A supply shouldn't be an issue for it. If the phone can only accept 1A then that is all it will accept from the charger.
The Stock charger is rated 1.5A. From the looks of it, it is the same charger included with Z1.
So is the retail box for the O2 Z1C without charger looks the same as normal Z1C?

But what does it say on the bundled charger, that's what i'm getting at. Seems to charge awfully quick lol

1.5A
Probably due to the S800 being able to use quick charge methinks.

I see their point but they must be having the reboxed by manufacture or taking them out themselves which isn't saving anything! I got mine on o2 but from cpw.

I can confirm, the charger that comes with the phone (ordered direct from Sony) is 1500mA (1.5A),

Exactly. Or the charger you have isn't the correct rating? I am sure they wouldn't sort out on battery issues under warranty!

They would have to. They committed to this nonsense.
The chargers they sell in store are just generic stuff. They don't keep stock of actual Xperia chargers.
I bought this off Amazon.

Hi,
I was charging my Xoom yesterday and my dog ran around and tripped on the cable. The charger bent and wouldn't work anymore. I bought a new charger thinking that was the problem, but it won't charge either. I assume that the port itself broke somehow.
It's the WiFi model, i bought from Best Buy without any protection plan. Does anyone know offhand what the cost of repair would be via Motorola and turnaround time?
Or better yet, some other way to charge it? (i wish the mini USB would work)
Thanks
Put the dog up for adoption.
Go to motos website and jump on a chat to see what they say.
Don't put the dog up for adoption.

I posted it on the Moto forums, thanks. Also, I heard the dock charges it without using the normal port, is that true? Would that work?
I too was going to suggest the dock. I am fairly certain it charges through the USB.

Dock will charge it. It charges through the exposed metal sockets you see on the bottom, not through USB. But it will work I have one.
Cheers.
You should go to ifixit.com and look for a teardown. Try and find the part on EBay or see if you can order through Moto. That sucks.

The dock is/was on sale at BestBuy. That's your immediate best bet.
But that's a big inconvenience. I have the dock and I think I only used it once. You'd have to have a boner to be able to rest that dock on you when you're using it in bed.

Just a + 1 for confirmation.
I find the crappy little charge port & jack to be one of the VERY few cons about the Xoom. The 2 gold plated connectors at least offer hope that I could fabricate another charger (apple laptop style) if ever necessary.
Do you think the Nexus would be compatible with this: http://www.prepaymania.co.uk/bundle...5_1352951281_943abe706d6d6b649f154f0e4db00ac9
Usually it requires powercubes, but because the Nexus is Qi compatible, does this mean we can use it without.
I believe not. Last time I checked Powermat have not made any QI compatible chargers.

As discussed in many Nexus 4 Accessories threads the Nokia one sometimes works but not always, the LG WCP-[something] does work and is on amazon, the Oregon Scientific time and charger works and as stated above the Energizer Qi mats work.
Take a look thru these threads.

So we've established the battery is poo so what I need is a portable charger, as small as possible that will give it one charge.
Any ideas from you kind people?

what it is bro
anker is a safe bet
I am looking into external chargers as well since you can replace the battery. I think I saw some Duracell ones on amazon as well, but thanks for the Anker suggestion!
I'm aware of their existance, what I want is effectively a "mini" one. I need it to be as small as possible but give the phone at least one charge.
Most of the ones ive seen on the net and on here are large and have large capacity
I will buy this one :

Gotta give us more information then that, like duration of your ownership (1 month, two months?), original charger, and what's the internal storage (16GB or 32GB).
In general, if you knock off $100-$150 off the original sale price, you can find some buyers ("fair" pricing might be lower based on the device's actual conditions, but I've usually found buyers by doing that). Heck, $50 off has worked for me.

I'm going to replace the micro USB cable that came with my Nexus 4. (The one from the stock charger). I need a cable which charges as fast as the stock one. I tried getting a cable from Mediabridge but they don't ship outside US.
I found those two on Amazon. They're almost the same, the one being 3.0 while the other one is 2.0. Is it the same which one I choose, and are those cables suitable for charging my nexus 4 with stock charger? Thanks.

2.0 Has issues with connections and the charging speed is not so good.
3.0 does not fit at all.
The best one is the Fosmon Flat Cable which is pretty good for its price, I even have one myself.
It is 2.1 AMPs out which does a good speedy charge on the Nexus 4, I even own a orange one and it is just so good.
