RE: PSA: Chinese Odin Gold USB Cable Problem

Not Surprising. I got one and it also cut out randomly or didn't work altogether. I disassembled it and found that it is not built to ANY USB cable spec. It does not use twisted pair configuration for the data + and - wires which is needed to remove the noise the cable run generates and keep noise low enough for the signal to lock and stay locked. It uses the spiral of wires that you see on the outside. This is just simply not how USB works.
