I'm not sure if the plugs look the same across all brands but it definitely fits on the Vzw version. this might be OLD news but... thought I'd share.:thumbleft:

Glad you found that out and " SHARE " with the rest of the Geeks that hadn't already knew that this could be done. For everyone else that already knew, just lay low and leep your remarks to yourself.

Yes, you can charge using a regular mini-USB but the charger that comes specifically with the Touch Pro charges at 1A instead of 500mA. So just to caution you that if you use your regular miniUSB cable that it won't be able to charge as fast if you are using a regular mini USB cable while talking on the phone and you'll eventually drain the phone's battery.

My phone charges at 1000mA with regular USB :D

And that's just the first one I found. There are tons of them out there, and you can even make your own with instructions from the Internet.

Did you also know that you can make phone calls with the touch pro? Not just setting your calendar, keeping contacts, and going online?

I had to call sprint to make sure that I wasnt doing anything wrong by being able to make a phone call, they said its an added feature included in my plan. Its a new feature called modem-as-phone, and being a long time customer, they waived the monthly fee.

Could not believe it. I can actualy make a phone call from ANYWHERE, even without the AC adapter plugged into the phone!

I was in such a fluster that I forgot to ask sprint if I can call other phones like this directly as well. As soon as my wife gets off the landline, Ill call them back and find out.

This could really open things up for me, talk about freedom!


sorry, couldnt resist...

i think i'm going to invest in a sprint wireless charger. they are reasonably priced plus i can get a killer deal on one if i catch the right rep...

wow! what a bunch of haters!

i was simply happy to find out that HTC dind't use a proprietary plug! i assumed that they had the pinouts reversed or switched... not to mention a the plug on the bottom of the phone does NOT look like a mini usb port.

relax people... nuff with the sarcasms...
