The original charger never charged properly so I was able to get a replacement. The replacement charger never worked either, so I found an charger from an older Motorola phone and have been able to get by with it. Then comes the problem with the phone. I have never been able to use a wire headset with it. There's so much static noise with the wire headset connected that people on the other end can't really hear me. Now that even without the headset of speaker on, people cannot hear me with the bad quality of the sound almost everywhere even with the best reception area.
