Things You'll Need:
- Power adapter
- Mini USB adapter
- Charger splitter
-
Insert the connection jack on the Nokia charger into the adapter side of the mini USB adapter. Most new Nokia cell phones use a mini USB power port, which allows it to connect to a computer. Using this adapter with a newer cell phone allows your old adapter to charge the phone.
-
Plug the electrical outlet end of the charger into a power adapter. There are multi-regional adapters available from local stores that allow you to use the charger in any country or region of the world. This is extremely helpful when you are traveling.
-
Fit the single end of the splitter onto the connection jack of the Nokia charger. This splits the power source in two different directions, allowing you to charge two different cell phones. It takes longer to charge the phones since your power is being cut in half, but it is helpful for dual-charging phones without carrying multiple chargers.
