I have an Evo cord and it does not charge my NC. Have tried it with the NC adapter and another power adapter I usually use. I've tried a number of other micro usb cords with short or long ends and they don't work to charge.

I can use the NC cord on another adapter and that will charge, as well as the original adapter. When you connect it, the battery symbol shows when you plug it in, and when you got to settings/device info, it shows Charging.

When the Evo cord is used or another micro USB cordis used, the battery symbol does not show and when you go to settings/device info it shows Not Charging. I imagine that is a trickle charge because it very slowly goes up. When you unplug anything, it says Discharging.

So, as far as I can tell, the NC cord is the only thing that actually says Charging, and anything else is a trickle charge.

Some of my short micro ends also seem to trickle charge - at least it says Not Charging instead of Discharging.

I've gone through a lot of cords and adapters, as well as battery packs that charge with a USB cord. Been trying to find an alternative for when I travel because almost everything else is down to a retractable cord with different tips for and one power adapter. As well as battery packs. I hate filling 1/2 my suitcase with cords and adapters. I think the NC will be the one exception. For now. Hopefully someone comes out with something that works for travelling.
