I'm going straight to the point.
Does the redmi note 7 is picky when choosing a type-C Usb cable?
I tried to charge the phone with the nintendo switch type-c usb, but it won't charge.
Last Saturday i went to buy a type-C cable a good brand around 12.00 $ but it didn't seem to work. i bought a random one from a store "miniso" the old telephone line cord ones. And it actually charge it.
what i want is a usb that is larger than the one that comes in the box (.
A. do i have to search for specific brand or something?
anyone know why? need had seen this problem before

Sounds like you were the victim of a proprietary cable followed by a faulty one.
Redmi Note 7 uses any standard USB type C cable.

Any cable works for me. I've used the macbook cable as well as a 3rd party one.
My RN7 won't charge with micro usb cable and USB-C adapter.
With another device - Huawei - it is working without problems.
I think the RN7 is picky

So I just bought the Note 3 yesterday, nice beast.
I briefly talked about the new micro-USB cable with the seller, who explained that it was completely compatible with regular micro-USB cables (I was starting to be disappointed : just when everyone was adopting standard micro-USB, they had to change that !).
But, he added it was nevertheless recommended to use the new charger cable. We both wondered why exactly, what could happen if using only an old regular micro-USB cable. Time to achieve charging is different? Can it damage the battery or reduce its life ? Or is it just to get USB 3 high-speed transfer capability?
As I now have (after having Galaxy 1, 2, and 3) many micro-usb cable everywhere (office, car), I'd like to be able to safely use them.
Thanks for your answers/leads.

Your original micro USB cables are perfectly OK to use. If using an mains AC charger, your phone will charge at whatever rate that charger charges at (500ma, 1a, 2a etc) irrelevant of whether you use a micro USB cable or micro USB 3 cable.
The only diffrerence really, is when charging from your computers USB ports. With the micro USB 3 cable, your phone will charge at a faster rate.
I havent even used my micro USB 3 charger that came with my phone yet, ive just been using my old chargers.
Nothing adverse happens, just use em like you would in your previous phones.

It won't hurt anything...
Your phone will charge slower and you data transfers will be slower. That is all.
Hello,
I've tried to find a clear, straight answer online and while I have found info regarding the USB-C standard, I can't find an answer to my question.
I use a mirco usb plug to charge both my current mobile phone and my android tablet.
Does the smaller port in the OnePlus Two use the same sized micro-usb port for charging? I understand that the USB-C port is the larger port on the other end of the cable. Maybe I am wrong about that.
Right now I have several micro usb chargers that I use to charge my phone and my tablet, and I'd like to know if they will be able to charge a OnePlus Two. I don't mind if the charging is slower, but I'd just like to know if it will fit and charge.
Thanks!
No in my sense,as far as my knowlege goes, USB-Type C is altogether a different technology,so you will need a special adapter for OTG too..

No.....a big No....the port they are using is nothing more than a new plug on the phone side of the cord. The other end of the cable will plug into all your old USB ports. So you will need to use the OP2 cable but the end that does not plug into the phone will plug into any current USB port.
They did not include any of the good things that come with USB C, they just put the USB C plug in the phone and on one end of the cable.

Thanks, friend. That's clear. This is a drag. Right now I have several charging cables that power all my stuff. Now if I get the OP2, I'll need two cables for home and two for the office. That's a negative in my book
Thanks!

Based on the release video they said an adapter would be available older USB cables so that might be an option for you.
Good to know. If the adapter is small and inexpensive, that would help a lot! Thanks!

Thanks! Very simple and affordable!
Just wondering before I buy a oneplus 2 does the cable work on every other USB charger plug like all android phones? I'll have to order a non UK plug but if I don't even need to use the supplies charger and can just plug the cable into another one it'll be perfect
It should work, though charging speed may vary and might cause eventual damage to the OP2's battery.

Yeah seems to work on any that I have tried. I have tried it on at least 5 different chargers with different USB leads and a Type C adapter for the leads. Just varies the charging times.

Anyone know how this would be charged in the UK? Are there special USB-C chargers, would a shaver adaptor work with that 2 pin charger the phone comes with?
I already have a USB 3.1 hub with charging ports so using the cable on it's own should be fine just want a plug charger for in the work.
I live in the UK, my two prong adapter is plugged into a shaver/euro adapter and it works fine.
Thanks for that, just wondered if a shaving adaptor would be able to handle the power required but I suppose a shaver's power requirements are probably comparable to a phone
Go to Sainsburys. You can buy a European to UK adapter, rated at 10watts. Lot safer than shaver plugs
BTW I read yours has not come yet. Mine came with a separate box, I wasn't expecting with a proper UK charger in. I looked at the zuk official website and they have the fast charge ones for this - 5.3v +2amps. Or might be 3amps..the one that is in the box is not a fast charge. I got some plugs off Amazon that send power down the data usb wire. They just plug in line and help alot
TLDR: I am only able to achieve a stable data connection using the Samsung usb-c cable that came with the phone. I've had my S8+ since the first day it was available in the US, Apr 21. And I've had this problem since that day.
Details:
When I plug my phone into a computer (transfer files, etc) or my car (Android Auto), it always works fine with the Samsung cable. It almost never works with any other usb-c cable I've tried, seeming to succeed only if the cable sits just right in the port. If it happens to work, and I move the phone/cable at all, it stops. On a computer, the "you plugged in a device" dialog pops up over and over again really fast (1 hertz).
I've tried it with both usb 2.0 and 3.0 ports on a couple towers and 3+ laptops
I've tried at least 3 different kinds of cables and at least 10 total cables. The cables don't sit loosely in the port or anything. They fit snug and hold fast, as I've come to appreciate about usb-c.
The other cables all work fine with other usb-c devices I have -- Pixel phone, Nexus 6p, Nexus 5x, Chromebooks, Nintendo Switch controllers
Charging works fine 90-95% of the time with other cables. When it fails, it slow charges, saying "Ensure the cable is plugged in properly" or something like that
I see articles online encouraging purchase of all kinds of non-Samsung usb-c cables to use with the S8
I would conclude the port is loose, but the cables all fit snugly, and the Samsung cable *always* works. I don't have to wiggle it in the port or anything--no effort at all.
This hasn't been a big deal for me until this week. I have usb-c cables all over the place I can charge with, and I carry the Samsung cable in my backpack for when I need a data connection. But now I have a car with Android Auto, and want to keep a valid cable in there.
Has anyone else experienced this? I searched around some, but couldn't find anything.
I'm using three different brands of type-C usb cables, micro usb cable+included adapter (micro usb to C). All are working fine.

It's a big I aqh3 I'm 99.9% positive. My MacBook pro power cable is as good as they come but it flaps like 3x then just says fail on my phone screen despite it working fine lol. It does not do this on for example the eng rom for root
I bought 3 type c cables from 3 different manufucturers. Only one of them doesnt work as advertised. Whenever i plug the phone with the cable the humidity sensor is switched on and it tells me the phone port is wet and i can not charge. Cant fidn any logical explanation but thats what i get

I experience the same problem. I haven’t tried the original cable. I just gave up on PC cable cause I never really needed it. I just wanted to use my usb c desktop connector to feel cool since usb c isn’t popular on a desktop yet. But yea constant disconnects unless you plug it without moving it, a slight wind can blow and cause it to disconnect. If the OEM cable works no problem, I’ll just buy one from a4c android store or amazon.
