Loose Micro HDMI Cable

---

I ordered an Amzer Micro HDMI cable for my Evo a few days ago, and it works and all, but if the cable wiggles around a little bit, it disconnects and reconnects shortly after. The cable does feel very loose in the port (much looser than the MicroUSB cables feel in the charge connector).
Has anyone else had this problem with their Evo, or has anyone found a solution (like a different brand of HDMI cable that works better)?

I ordered the same one last week. No word on when it will ship though. I'll let you know if my cable is loose when I get it.

I am having the same problem with the Amzer HDMI cable. I would have to push the cable downwards in order to get the video to play. If I wiggled it or pushed it up, the picture would be lost. I will replace it once I get fed up with the cable.

I don't know about the amazon cable, but I did order the HDMI cable from the same guy who sold the two batteries and wall charger for 10 bucks on eBay. When I played around with the cable it did feel loose. But when I forced the plug into the phone it went in further and made a solid connection.

Don't know if that will work for you guys too :P

I had this issue with my OEM micro-usb. I bought 6 more USB cables ranging from 3ft - 10ft... they work fine now. Check the actual cable to see if the pins move around, that may be the issue... aka poor construction

I have exactly the same issue with the cable I got from Monoprice. I couldn't hold the phone and move it around as it would intermittently disconnect. But if I set the phone down the connection stayed throughout.

Before you guys get all up in arms I have the "official" HDMI cable from Sprint and it is loose too. Its the socket not the cable. I'm on my second EVO and they were both the same way, loose.

anyone else have this problem? I have the monoprice cable and the connection is flaky. My EVO is only 2 weeks old.

Same thing here with monoprice cables. It isn't 100% the socket though, as my buddy's cable works perfectly fine in my evo. Don't know where he got his, but will find out.
