Guest matejsolid Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 Hy, I'm in need of longer charging cable,previously I ordered from Ebay but it doesnt stick in phone's charging port and usually just comes off. The problem is in this part,it needs to be long enough to work very well with F1's charging port and I wondered did anyone ordered recently cable that can recommend works good with Coolpad F1.
Guest dalyer Posted February 26, 2015 Report Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) The Coolpad like most phones these days just uses a standard micro USB cable. Nothing special about it. I've used lots from different sources and they all work fine. Some of them are very cheapo cables and they work fine. Maybe you just got a crappy cable from eBay? Could you pare some of the moulded "collar" off to get the micro USB connector to attach better perhaps? Edited February 27, 2015 by dalyer

I specifically noted that other easily falls and doesnt "stick" in charging port very well like the one which came with F1 but stoci one is too short so I'm looking lets say extended version of stock at least 2 metres. Longer connector which goes into phone is must have if you plan using phone while charging or it falls out off charging port in phone every second. Its pretty annoying and I'd like buy just like stock but longer.
Guest dalyer Posted February 27, 2015 Report Posted February 27, 2015 I'd expect any micro USB cable to work and connect securely. I'm surprised that the one that you got does not. For what it's worth dx have a number of 2M USB to micro USB cables here: http://www.dx.com/s/2m+micro+usb Hope this helps.

Yeah I'd expect so but I tried 3-4 usb cables from Note 2,LG 4X,some basic cable from IT store but every cable doesnt "stick" good into charging port,falls so easily,you cant use F1 in horizontal mode while charging. But the cable which came with F1 sticks good and doesnt have any problems.I use TPU case but I also tried removing case and using without case and same thing. I read Note 3/4 has same problems,thanks for the link but I'm searching for longer connector version so I dont have any problems.
Guest Arpione Posted February 27, 2015 Report Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) I got my cable from an ebay auction for less than a dollar and I had no such problems with it (I've been using it for months now so it seems to be sturdy too). Here are 2 links from the same seller, one for an auction and one for fix price, I'd expect them to be the same as mine: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Micro-USB-Battery-Charger-Data-Sync-Cable-Samsung-Galaxy-S3-S4-S5-Note-II-/311304576013?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item487b32dc0d http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Micro-USB-Data-Sync-Cable-Battery-Charger-Samsung-Galaxy-S3-S4-S5-Note-2-3-/360911886548?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item54080658d4 On the fixe price one the 2nd and 3rd pictures show the actual connector length.

Guest pestpony Posted February 27, 2015 Report Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) Why don't you try in a chinese bazaar?? In my country there are a lot of them and it was easy for me to buy 2 long cables with the suitable metallic connection lenght. Edited February 27, 2015 by pestpony
Guest Arpione Posted February 28, 2015 Report Posted February 28, 2015 (edited) In my country even crappy chinese electronic stuffs cost about 4 times as much as on ebay. Edited February 28, 2015 by Arpione
Guest pestpony Posted February 28, 2015 Report Posted February 28, 2015 So... what... ?? The issue is not the price, it is the cable connection. Sometimes people look only for the price (in this case is not much), without considering any other values like waiting time or "touching" possibility (these things has a price too). Anyway, my comment it was only for offering another possibility to matejsolid, not for talking about places or money.
Guest matejsolid Posted March 2, 2015 Report Posted March 2, 2015 What is bazzar ? I agree,here in Croatia simple HDMI cable cost 3-4 times than when you order from Ebay,same rebranded *hit... charging cable 1m 4 euros LOL from ebay 70 cents ... I ordered this hopefully this one will do work :) http://www.ebay.com/itm/161462086005?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&var=460499008724&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
Guest userDJJ Posted March 2, 2015 Report Posted March 2, 2015 Find this cable: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nokia-CA-101-Micro-Data-Cable/dp/B000U6QPFI
Guest danndy Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 Here you can find the cable you need http://www.antelife.com/original-usb-cable-for-coolpad-f1-black.html
Guest matejsolid Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 Guys I have original cable but it is too short for me,I need at least 2-3 metres of length. I received this cable,again same story and same *hit,falls off every time I move it more roughly.
Guest Arpione Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 I don't think you can get a 3m micro USB cable and even if you do there's no guarantee it'll charge the phone at the same speed as the shorter ones. Why would you need a cable that long anyway?
Guest dalyer Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 I don't think you can get a 3m micro USB cable Plenty of 3M micro USB cables on ebay but maybe not with the longer micro USB connector.

Guest Jpower73 Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) Didn't tested on data transfer. Only charge. I'll do the data test tomorrow and I'll feedback. ;) P.S.: very good quality and nice... "outfit".. Edited March 25, 2015 by Jpower73
Guest userDJJ Posted March 27, 2015 Report Posted March 27, 2015 Dont buy dx rubbish, http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nokia-CA-101-Micro-Data-Cable/dp/B000U6QPFI .
Guest mindtrapper Posted March 28, 2015 Report Posted March 28, 2015 I can tell you where to buy cables with long connectors that will work when you have a thick case on but they are quite short and are charge only, no data. Are you interested?

Its pretty annoying and I'd like buy just like stock but longer.Strange that I have the same problem but with stock cable. I agree that's very annoying. Many other cables tested work a lot better with my F1 (for example stock from Lenovo A850+, stock charger from my childs old Samsung Galaxy Y, tablets… ). I'm also searching for cheap good (at least a bit longer) cable. Edited April 3, 2015 by xeros2
