USB cables
Sorry to revive a dead thread, but there is some unclear info in here that I thought I could clear up:
Micro-USB cables are universal in the sense that they will all fit and to one degree or another charge your phone. The combination of the charger and the cable, however can yield wildly different charge rates. If you want fast charging:
1. Look at the small print on your wall charger and see what current level it will output. You're looking for something 1 amp or higher. Some chargers will say something like 500ma, which is 500 milliamps or half an amp, and that's slower.
2. Consider buying a special "charging" cable. These cables use the USB power that would normally be used for data to charge the battery faster, and thus they won't work as data cables when plugged into your computer. Here's an example of a charging cable from Amazon:

Basically what you want to look for on your One V is in the power settings for the phone it should say "Charging (AC)" when you plug it in and *not* "Charging (USB)". With the AC setting you know you're getting as much charging power as you can get.
