Default Charger adapter

Hi
I'm intersted in buying this adapter because I already have a Nokia car charger and I'm not intersted in buying another LG car charger (I'm using the Nokia one too and I don't like having two chargers in the car); my question is: will it work? And will I be able to use this adapter to charge my LG with a Nokia AC charger?

Hi 22VIN
I think that adapter is compatible. I seen it work on nokia e52 and E5. Also i used the original E52 charger on optimus one and it worked just fine. Cheers!

You can buy almost any car charger, but, in order to have fast charging (in LG, Nokia, Samsung, etc.) the specs for the car charger states that the data pins are linked.

Something that isn't required on apple products. So take notice.

I have bought a car charger for iphone, but, only after linking the data pins with some soldering it started fast charging my phone.

Don't do that...trust me it works without any linking...probably you will damage your port. Iphone has a proprietary port unlike OO which has standard microUSB. So any certified charger will do just fine.

Obviously I disagree.

You can read the technical documents (MoU regarding Harmonisation of a Charging Capability for Mobile Phones, google it), look more carefully to the section7.

"The EPS shall short the D+ and D- lines with a resistance not greater
than 200 ohms."

Said this, I also believe that if you buy a proper certified device it is the perfect option, unfortunately I see a lot more product choice for iphone then other brands.

For instance, I first realized about the short when I bought a PowerBolt™ Duo Car Charger from Kensington, I said to myself, great!! 2.1 A and another 1A USB plug, I will be able to charge anything.

But when I first connected it to my phone, it was charging alright!!, but Slow charging, only after some investigation I found why, the PowerBolt didn't had the Data pins linked together, and the phone limited the power drain.

using original LG charger with a Nokia or HTC micro-USB cable, the display indicates "charging" but the battery percentage doesn't increase...why?

Does it say Charging (USB) or Charging (AC)

You can find this if on Definitions->About Phone->Phone State
