Default Broken Charger!

So I woke up this morning to find that my charger is broken! The part that plugs into the phone is completely bent, and I can't seem to find one anywhere. Does anyone know if the warranty from Verizon or HTC will cover the charger? It's still under the 1 year. Any help would be appreciated.

I don't think vzw covers the cables under warranty, but you should at least call.

If they don't help you out, try this:

****EDIT****
In post 10, below, feralicious provides a link to the proper 12-pin USB cable (the Flyer and the Rezound have the same connectors).

It's white but it works.

You can use a standard USB to micro USB cable.

I know any USB cable will work, that's what I'm using for right now, but they don't fit as snug as the cable that actually came with the phone. The normal USB cables feel too loose and wiggle around too much for my liking.

The link is there to order a new one then, I doubt Verizon will replace it for free.

Yeah, that one is just a normal USB one. I contacted htc directly and I think they might replace it. Hopefully anyway..

Odd result: a standard USB to micro USB cable from monoprice doesn't actually charge my phone even though the phone claims to be charging AC, the HTC USB cable does.

Anyone else notice anything like this?

Very odd, I'm using a standard charger to charge my phone for the time being and it charges fine. It just doesn't feel secure enough is all. It is an HTC branded charger though. Don't know if that makes a difference.

This thread is about the OEM charge cables. In case you need to order one. The one linked at the bottom of post #21. The DC T500 is the part number. Most places only have it in white though.

Eris - Sold
Incredible - Sold
Rezound - Unlocked, Rooted and sporting Amon Ra Recovery 3.15, Currently on Countershrike V2.3
Big fat S-OFF!!

This one fits snug with that snap in you get from the original one. I bought two of them and they work great. I just wish they were black.
