Very slow charging...

Hi All,

I've got a Monte Carlo with Atomic's latest ROM. The phone charges super fast with the supplied charger, but I needed a spare so used a USB cable and a spare HTC usb charger.

The HTC usb charger is rated at 1A and when I connect the USB lead to it, the phone reads that it is connected to AC power. However after 7hrs of charging its barely charged 30-40%! I thought the usb charger was to fault so I used an iPhone usb charger, and I got the same results - 7hrs = 30-40% charge! But the charger supplied with the phone (which is also a USB charger + USB lead) seems to charge the phone in a few hours flat!

Can someone give any advice as to what's happening?

Thanks!

perhaps the usb cable has bad soldering if you exchange the usb cables what happens then ?

I use A HTC charger 1a and it chargers faster than the ZTE 0,7 A charger ... 4 hours from 10% to 100%

and I have a 2 amp charger with 2 usb connectors and when i use that with only one phone it's back to 100% in less than 2 hours ...

anyhow exchange the cable ... a 0.5 ohm resistance at 1 amp make you lose about 0.5 volt, 1 ohm 1 volt and then it won't charge
