would getting a new usb cable/charger affect my ascend's performance?

not sure because my ipod 1st gen only came with a usb cable, so I bought a wall adapter thing that the usb goes into, and then into the wall, and it seems whenever it's charging through that adapter, my touchscreen was all jumpy and weird, like I would press something, but it will scroll instead, not sure if you are referring to the same thing. If you experience a problem with the new one, then order this one

USB Data Cable For Huawei M735, Ascend M860 - Huawei M735

 

No idea what would cause that, but I'd hazard a guess and say you probably shouldn't continue using a non-standard charger that causes this type of issue. I'd fear the possible damage from it.

 

it won't damage the phone, but it will just be hard to use it while it's charging...it's most likely not the USB cable but the adapter itself.

 

I believe that's a standard problem with any Ascend since I'm unable to use my phone either while it's charging.

 

No problems here,while using the factory charger&cord(Cricket).I have noticed that non-OEM cords/adaptors may do the job(of charging),the fit tends to be somewhat loose & could be part of the problem.

 

I've been having the same jumpy screen problem with charging my phone on cords that didn't come with the phone. But I am also noticing that when I use these cords a lot, suddenly they won't charge my phone anymore. I'm wondering if the phone is burning them out...the connection becomes loose also. It's as if the phone is eating the cords (something like that).

 

From previous experience.

Never use third party hardware/equipment for phones. Your best bet, is to find a compatible one made either by Huawei themselves or something remotly similar, I'm using a Huawei Charger but the cable is by Samsung. But see, that's how it came in the box.

Be wary of 'fake' authentic equipment.

You know another thing that is hard to do? Getting a headset that works right with my phone. Since the port's so tiny...its a small selection. Since Huawei is picky and the 3rd Parties are CRAP, its even harder.

Damn, I miss my old stuff.

 

+1

always use the recommended cable and it will cause you less money and headaches in the future.
