Well my iPhone charger is on the fritz, I have to hold it almost exactly straight for it to charge, should I replace it or try to fix it, and can anyone recomend a new charger/how to fix it?

And it buzzing non stop is getting annoying, I'm almost ready to hit it with a rolled up news paper every time it buzzes!

If it's the white wire charger, replace it

Those stupid things are downright evil. I know 3 other people with iPhones & all of them, including me, have had the thing fall apart! Aarrggg!

I'm a fan of official gear but the one apple supplied is weak as fuck. Its fraying around the phone connection end. Still works, but anyone bought a more heavy duty cabled 1? Belkin stuff is usally ok but gash if u have to alighn it perfectly! Gonna have to rely on the car mount soon!

The new cables are good. I got one with my 3gs an it's thicker than the shit on they supplied with my 3g.

Yea the charger that came with it did pretty good(3gs), but then my dog saw it...

Ah maybe it would be an idea to feed the dog before he sees your charger next time 😉

My wire is also on the fritz. The bloody cheapscapes! I'm having to charge my extended battery n then use that to charge my iPod.

The cables I'm talked about that suck are the ones that came with our 3gs iPhones. We bought a different one at Best Buy that seemed to work well for a while. Then suddenly the other day it quit working if you move the phone even 1 mm while it's plugged in.
