Voltage charger !

Hi all

Any ideas what the voltage a charger needs to be to recharge the HTC desire's battery ?

Many thanks

It's a USB-charged device, ergo about 5 volts. 1000ma is preferable but it charges happily off 500ma.

Hi @ all,

Don't want to start a new thread so i'll ask here.
Have HTC Desire. Don't know why but my phone is showing the same "Charging (USB)" doesn't matter it's plugged to PC or to AC adapter. And it takes 5-6 hrs to completely charge to 100%.
Any ideas?

Thanks

Sounds like the mains charger is only putting out 500mA. It should have the output on it somewhere. If its the original HTC charger its defective.
