I don't know if anyone has heard about this problem. There is a report from XDA and Good and Evo websites reporting a problem with the stock EVO 4G microUSB cables that come with the EVO. The reports states: "the cable was engineered improperly using a cheap panel mount/board mount hybrid connector instead of a proper microUSB cable mount-style connector." Because of this, it could cause a fire and of course the cable would be ruined, and possibly, your computer, and house, etc.
I have had my EVO since day one, and never had this type of problem. This is the first I have heard about it. Anyone else having this problem with the cable?
