Re: Omnia Gets REALLY Hot

I am sure ther is. maybe find one from a newer or older phone that has the same adaptor or a third party one. What i did was used my wall charger and used blue tooth to sync to computer unless i am flashing. Depending on what you want to charge from though you might never find the right one. Usb outlets do charge but ther all different loads that come out of them depending on what you are charging from. Laptops have alot less charge than a desktop usually. The other thing is I am pretty sure you have to have a usb version that is able to charge. I think but am not sure but usb 2 is the only kind that is able to charge anything. so make sure you plug into the right one. If you really wanted to you could take a multimeter and check the port or ther is i heard programs that do that for you. I dont think any multimet will work and maybe check to find if there is a program that can adjust the amount of power that goes to the usb but that sounds like a bit risky of causing a lot of damage. I would say never charge from usb if you dont have to. The dare had a charger usb combo that charged fine from my lap top so there could to many reasons that it is not worth buying stuff untill you know more information.


Oh ya check the power requirements frome the phone and whats available. It can damage your battery to give it the wrong charge.
