thought i had a plastic bag stuck to the exhaust, still might. when i went to unplug the phone, i noticed it was hot, i touched the tip of the charger and it was so hot i burnt my frickin finger. i noticed the rubber had come apart from the cord at the tip, but the wire was fine. faulty charger or maybe the lighter socket itself??? ideas??

 

faulty charger. Ive had this happen with a few cheap-o chargers

 

this is an oem charger only a year old, its a sprint htc evo 3d phone and it was hot too. never had one get hot before

 

did you leave it plugged in for an extended period of time? Say a few hours while charging the phone? Ive left an OE Motorola charger plugged in and charging my phone for a 4 hour trip...it was hot as ***** afterwards

 

I think you need more charger fluid.

 

yes, thank you. thats what i forgot. no, only lke 35-45 minutes. weird, do they fake oem charge cords now???

 

^yes they do. I have a fake "OEM" moto travel charger off of amazon. The thing wont charge my GalaxyNote for ****

 

i knew it, this charger looks oem but i bet its not. piece of junk... here's the oem correct charger http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=...at=0&_from=R40 and here's what i got http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-New-Dual...item3379e6f4a2

 

radioshack sells a car charger that you can use with any phone you just buy a new tip when you get a new phone. Very nice looking too and has a classy blue light to it. Look into it

 

You know you're a car guy/girl when "oem" doesn't apply only to cars.. Lol

 

"OEM" applies to all consumer electronics and computers, just as it does with cars.

 

^ go with it dude. Geez

 

there are a few **** folks on this forum...no homo

OH GAWD PLEASE DONT BOYCOTT ME FOR THAT HOMOPHOBIC COMMENT

SN: *** HTC products

 

Its just the charger. I have had chargers get so hot it burned through plastic housing.

just replace it.

The cigaretter lighter circuit has a fuse so i doubt the circuit is the problem.
