There no no need to be sarcastic, I made a few spelling errors, not a big deal :rolleyes:
Have you changed you usb charging cable at all recently? Some of the cheaper ones are utterly cr*p and do not deliver the necessary ampage to charge the phone efficiently
I've had a problem with a USB cable I bought but it may be down to the length as it's a 2m one.
I know lower voltages cannot travel along wires so well.
Also I've upgraded my mains charger from the 1 amp one to a 2 amp one (in car and mains) and it charges a lot quicker.
I have bought a number of cheap ones. They are OK for transferring data but charging has been a no go with all of them.
I bought a decent quality one from Maplin electronics (1.5 mtr I think) for about ten pounds and their leads work fine.
It is a big deal if you want someone to read what you wrote! LOL
You still didn't mention if your phone is still in warranty.
Glad it's all ok now.
