Motorola MPx220
Charger Socket is Toast
The charger plug now goes in so loose into the cheap ass charger socket that it cannot make contact unless I "tweak" it to one side or another and keep it tweaked so that it can charge. This is the first phone that has ever given me trouble with this. I bought it at Best Buy and Lockline would not insure it. I have not gone to Cing yet but can just imagine what a ride I am in for. Any suggestions?

I've been reading the posts here for a while now and wondering when someone else might bring this up. I am also completly unable to charge my 220 with either the "plug in the wall" charger or the car charger. I can use the computer connection cord which goes to the USB port to charge if I mess with it and clean it real good first. I've been afraid to wiggle it back and forth too much for exactly the reasons you stated. Worried that it would get so loose that it would never work. I clean the socket with a carved down pencil eraser. Those contacts have to shine like a mirror in there or it just won't work. Has anyone found a better charging cord from some after market source?
