Quick question. I have my Evo since launch day, all original plugs etc. Last week I noticed that my charger cable slipped right out of my Evo when I barely moved the plug. Long story short, i noticed that even with my extended battery that my hour usage went from 16 + hours now to 10 hours. Is it possible that since my charger isnt getting a firm connect to the port of my Evo that its reducing the longevity of my battery ?

Sounds likely to me - I had that problem with my old Palm Pre. But it wasn't the cable in my case, it was the socket on the phone. It had gotten bent out a little due to using the phone while it was plugged in. The constant stress on the plug caused it to stretch out a bit and then no cables would fit it properly. Be careful if you are using your phone while it is plugged in. Over time it can get damaged. If you need new / extra cables, try www dot monoprice dot com. I've had good luck with their cables and they are super cheap...

HA ^^^ looks like two votes for monoprice.com...

If the phone is still in its one year manufacturer warranty then contact HTC warranty department and let them know about your problem. You can also let them know about your battery too. I spoke to them yesterday about my charger cable not working, and they'll be sending me both.

Ps. The best part of it is _ you get to keep the ones you have. Call Now.

Good idea, can't beat free.
