Re: Is it safe to use miniUSB cable for charging ?

Sometimes one of the pins can be messed up inside the usb port on the phone from using a different charger, although it will still work there have been cases where people have noticed there original charger wouldn't work but an older one would... If you notice not all miniUSB's are the same shape, nor are all miniUSB's manufactured the same...

Suggest you look at this article on details:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Univers...Mini_and_Micro

Probably a bent pin issue.
