Hi All, I bought my N770 while visiting the UK a few months back. The charger (AC4-X) cable snappt at the root of the end that goes to the wall. Now I cannot charge my device :-( I am now back home and this particular charger model isn't available. Furthermore, the local Nokia rep doesn't support the N770 because it isn't a cell phone.... I know all new models come with a similar charger (with the mini plug) and so I found a charger with similar tech specs (input and output), by similar I mean the output mA is 860 instead of 890... I charged it once with a friend's charger and it worked fine - except 2 things: I charged it while the device was off. The battery icon showed up and after a few second begun to animate the charge. A while later I noticed the screen was off completely - no indication for the charging process. I turned the device on and it booted faster than usual and the battery animation was still showing.... The other thing I noticed was: the charge didn't last like it used to. I might be wrong, because I left FBReader open and the Online Mode on (I usually don't have network access at work, so I leave it Offline). Is it OK to use a different charger with the same specs? Am I doing something that will cause damage to the device? the battery? Please advise! Thanks! -- :====================================================:.
