I usually charge the phone with it on so that I can receive calls at night too. When it's done charging, it stops, but then within a couple of seconds to about a minute, it starts charging again, presumably since in that time the battery's charge has dropped below the threshold. It then stops charging after a couple of seconds when that small amount is restored. Every time the charger starts and stops, the phone emits a soft beep, which gets annoying, since in the middle of the night, I'll hear a beep every couple of minutes. I have to get up and disconnect the phone.
I think the original charger has a different chip that keeps the charger from restarting once the battery is charged while it remains connected to the phone.
With all that said, I got the charger when the cost was one penny, and you really can't ask for much at that price. Like I said, it does serve its purpose in terms of charging the battery.The charger I received doesn't even work no matter how I set the cord for it. I am very unhappy about it but it was only $3.00 I lost so it's not that big of a deal for me to go through sending it back or getting a refund. HORRIBLE.The charger arrived promptly and in perfect condition. Works perfectly and the price was only 10% of what I would have spent at a Verizon store!the wire is probably only 18". it feels like you have a leash on if you want to talk on the phone as it charges; can't get far from the wall at all. other than that it works great.The charger does not charge the battery fully, instead it will show 'Charge completed' after about 3 minutes of charging.
