Hello,
In my search for a 22-pin connector for my Blue Angel, I took the one delivered in the box apart to see if I could use it to solder my own carkit.
I put the pictures in the wiki :
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueangelConnector
Does anyone know where they sell a connector like this one, preferably in Belgium, The Netherlands or Germany ?
Best regards,
Kristof
You need to take that metal plate off, and take some nice close-up macro shots.
Hi,
you can buy it here: http://www.haid-services.de/pi-680482093.htm?categoryId=49

Newbie question maybe but did do some searches first and couldn't locate any info.
I have just bought XDA IIs and I'm looking for a car mount for it. There are plenty out there for the XDA II but not yet for the XDA IIs, is there any physical diffeence between the bottom of these units, i.e the connecting/charging port.
Ideally I want one that will also charge the PDA and a GPS unit when I eventually get one. I have seen a Carcomm holder/charger for the XDA II that looks good but unsure if it's suitable. (available from TotalPDA, their product ref 4738)
Effectively two questions here as I try to solve one problem, any advise appreciated.
Cheers :lol:
Similar BUT different
The position, general design and connector pinouts for the bottom port are identical from the first Wallaby to the new Blue Angel, BUT the physical connector on the Blue Angel (XDAIIs, MDAIII, SX66) has a slight alteration from the connector in previous generations. There is a small keying protrusion on one side of the Blue Angel accessory port. Several owners of Blue Angels have been forcing the older type connectors into the Blue Angel and while the pinouts and connectors themselves mate up, doing this places mechanical strain on the connector in the Blue Angel as it has a mating protrusion that normally would fit into the keyway on the plug, but now is mechanically forced outward. Over time, this has a strong potential for damaging the connector on the Blue Angel.
Check out this thread as it has pictures of what I am describing http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12092
So, at this time, I have not found ANY Blue Angel specific accessories(ie designed to mate with the newer connector). In time these surely will appear. In the meantime, a little work with a Dremel tool can create the keyway in the plugs on older generation accessories and doing so will no harm those accessories but it WILL protect the connector in the Blue Angel.
BTW, I have both the first gen and the last gen, so I have accessories whose connector will have to be modified

I am still using a Clic on car kit I had for my Ipaq 5550, i purchased a new cable when I got the XDA2, and then used some black hard foam on the cradle, as the xda2 was a little thinner. Then when upgrading to the XDA2s, it used the same connection, and fit just as snug.
Seidio is supposed to be releasing a car kit for the PDA2K sometime this month. Check out http://www.seidioonline.com/

Car mount for XDA IIs
Hi, I have just purchased an Arkon car mount from ebay at £29.99 + £5 p&p. It has power and plugs for GPS I am using a Holux Bluetooth that I am powering from the auxillary power port on the unit, it has sockets for hard wire GPS receivers as well and a buit in amplified speaker. Go into ebay and key in XDA car mount. The same unit was £55 on Tottenham Court Road, I will say though that the power conector to the IIs was stiff so the previous guy saying about the difference is probably correct. Will get the Dremil out tonight.
Thanks for all the replies, I have now ordered an Arkon CM532 from E-bay and feel (fairly) confident of modifying the connecter to suit my XDA IIs as required.
Merry Xmas to you all.
How do you deal with the Arkon RF/speaker interference?
I read here that it was unacceptable...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13654&start=0
how do you deal with it?
As it turns out I didn't order a mount as an e-bay company i had already approached came back saying they were hoping to release a specific mount for the XDAIIs around about now.
I've just e-mailed them to see if they've got them in yet.
Keep us updated!

Arkon CM531 works with o2 XDA IIs
Hi Guys, I've been using my Arkon CM531 (made for the o2 XDA II) fine with my new o2 XDA IIs. This is a relief as it means that I won't have to dish out more money! Whoo hoo!
I use a mag mount kit which is £8.99 at PDA Mods http://www.pdamods.com/proddetail.asp?prod=WSMMOUNT&cat=23
On the XDAII i put the small metel plate supplied under the back cover and that works perfectly. In the XDAIIs there is no battery cover so i have ordered a proprota alu-leather case http://www.proporta.com/F02/PPF02P05.php?t_id=978&t_mode=des
which has a magnetic mount built in. I have not received it yet.
I then use a Wired GPS that i brought from PDA Mods for the XDAII. This also powers the XDAII. This fits and works perfectly in the XDAIIs.
If you have both devices and look closely at the XDAII & XDAIIs sockets there is a slight difference on the XDAIIs. But this is backward compatable. IE you can use any connector desiged for the XDAII on the XDAIIs but you can not use a connector designed specifically for the XDAIIs in the XDAII.
Just take a look at your power dongle for the XDAIIs it WILL NOT fit your XDAII. Strangely though on the cradle they fitted a backward compatible connector and not a XDAIIs specific one. So you can plug your XDAII into the XDAIIs cradle.
is possible ?
thanks
:lol:
Not sure about qtek, but the sx66 has a hole in the back with a rubber plug in it, that is supposed to be for an external antenna. I took the plug out and it looks like a connector inside. Don't know of anyone who actually makes the antenna though. If you can find some specs on the connector, you might be able to find a generic 850/900/1800/1900 MHz antenna that fits it. They've got pictures here of a blue angel taken apart you might be able to measure the conectory from the pics an the case.
Hey guys, has anyone found or is currently using a desk cradle for the wing? I would like to get one so I can have less desk clutter.
Thanks

Right nice photo they have there . . . think they could have made it any smaller and more indistinct so that all you could figure out is that the object is black?
Lol, true true, but it was the only official HTC page were I found that accessory...
How exactly does that cradle work? I have a Wing and it has a rubber cover over the bottom ports. Would I have to permanently remove that cover, or does it somehow just "fit" in the cradle, even with a dangling cover.
I got this one for my 4350
http://www.boxwave.com/products/desktopcradle/htc-herald-desktop-cradle_2434.htm
(also some nice screen protectors from the same site)
Don't know about the rubber feet of the Wing through...
this one is cheaper, fits the wing better (has hole for wing's rubber usb port cover), and you can order it & get it in 3 days...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=190151821791
Yes, it´s cheaper, but the shipping costs are heavy ... about 23$ up to 30 ...
well u look at the total cost, even after shipping it's still cheaper than the alternative.

Hi alltogether
Does anybody have the 'know-how' in changing the cover from the Lumia 920?
Can you tell where to get a cyan color back cover? (I don't mean this protectiv shields etc. I mean the complete cyan unibody from the phone
I found a video how to dismantle (looks easy) and some sellers on ebay (quite expansive -> Nokia Lumia 920 Rear Chassis Back cover)
But one seller says it is not done by changing the cover
"you must Send your phone to us to have this replaced as your screen needs caliberating once removed..."
This idea came to my mind cause I want a cyan color lumia and I just bought a black one for a great low price
Share your experience in this thread AND if anybody knows where I can get the cyan back cover for the lumia PLEASE! send me a message!
Kind regrads!

I want to buy a few covers with everything included (Qi charging coil, usb piece....) so I can just disconnect the usb cable and swap to another cover.

For this you should ask the seller of the covers.
The little flap that covers the USB port has a small rubber gasket that tends to fall off. Has anyone found a cheap source or easy way to repair this? I'm thinking liquid rubber via a syringe or similar. I bought several off Ebay but they were expensive and don't last more than 6 months. I'm on like my 4th one.
Depends on what you think cheap is.
Supposedly this is OEM: http://www.etradesupply.com/sony-xperia-z-ultra-xl39h-card-slot-cover-and-usb-cover.html
I have same problem, my first falloff and now i use ducktape coz i cant buy that in my country
I have replaced it with this
OEM Micro USB Charge Port Cover White For Sony Xperia Z Ultra C6833 C6843 XL39H...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/191429193701
You can try sticking it with glue if you catch it falling soon. The above flap is very easy to put back and NO DISASSEMBLY is needed.
joust got one i ordered from amazon, great quality!
I had the same issue while in Mexico, called the Sony service center and they mailed me out 2 of them for FREE. My suggestion is that you call your local Sony Mobile service center and see what they tell you. I wasn't asked for warranty or proof of purchase, NADA!
FoneJoy has the USB cover for the Ultra. I bought one myself from them when the rubber fell off mine. They ship worldwide (from the UK).

very useful thread, how complicated is the assembly once I have that original spare? couldn't find any pointers or how-to's. Thanks everyone.
