My charger started smoking in my phone so I took it out and it was flaming. Now my phone won't charge with any charger at all. What do I do now? It works, I haven't had it a yr yet and I have full coverage on it. Just use a charging pad with the sticker over the battery so it works? Or will Verizon replace it?

You can use the 1 year manufacture warranty. I believe it extends to the charger as well. The phone needs to be in good condition physically with the charging port being the only problem.

Hi there [Personal Information removed as required by the Verizon Wireless Terms of Service]

I regret to hear that your phone had burned up like that! That is certainly not something that is supposed to happen. I'm glad though, that it wasn't worse and didn't result in any harm to anyone. However, the absolute best bet will be to bring the device, charger, and everything that it came with to the store (Including the box if possible). Because of the nature of the issue, we will be able to take care of it this way. You can find your nearest store by following this link and entering your zip code/address: http://spr.ly/6589Bn8VH
