Hey there,
I Lost this little adapter, thats needed to charge the battery without the docking station.
Now i always need to take the docking station with me to charge it.
Is there a possibility to buy this little thing?
Thanks
As an alternative, you might consider a USB charging/sync cable such as this one or this one. Combine a USB cable with an adapter like Boxwave's Versacharger, and you can charge from your car or off AC.
that would be a posibility...
i already have a USB-cable and a car adapter. so i would only need an adapter with witch i could plug in the USB thing into the power socket.
where can i buy this thin alone?
www.boxwave.com and www.thinkgeek.com both offer the Versacharger, which is a neat DC/AC adapter with a USB socket. Expect to pay $20-$25.
hey, thanks.
thats much for such a little thingy :x
perhaps one of you guys has such an adapter and doesn't need it any more?

Where are you Hirsch? UK? USA?

but it's ok, i got one from ebay, for 6€.
thanks for the hints
I have several of the original XDA IIs DC Jack available.
This is the adaptor that plugs in the base of the XDA IIs and connects to the mains charger.
They are £4.99 + postage. Please PM me if interested or click here:

they only accept payment via bank xfer,but it's better than nothing. anyone else know any other sellers?
Does anyone have the pinout of the non-standard Startrk USB connector?
any other place to get one besides that german site? somewhere we can purchase online please. thanks
The adaptor looks like just what I need. I almost ordered a couple from the liked site, but it all became too hard. My German is just not that good. I have searched all the usual places but cannot find this adaptor anywhere else. Please, if anyone else knows where ti can be sourced (preferebly with payment via credit card) let us all know.

i've tried to search all over internet and found nothing. the only ones available are the HTC made Y cable adaptor which is pretty much overpriced and useless because i want a mini usb+3.5mm jack. even just a mini usb adaptor will do (original HTC made mini usb adaptor available, then again, overpriced). where can i find something like that? any idea guys?
yep, i've searched pretty much the whole internet

! and there's nothing. grr. if it wasn't such a ballache i'd get a spare standard cable and cut it up to solder on a mini usb socket. pinouts can't be that hard - although i'm not sure where i'd get an inline mini usb socket from.
I've bought this one for 3.5 mm jack...works great:

I've paid with credit card (click on paypal....don't need a paypal account), received it within a week (all the way to Europe....;-).
headphone only though
...no mini USB charge point. thanks though.

i did some modify of my own . i use sony ericsson headset instead of the one from electronic store because sony ericsson unit have mic and button to answer call. and SMALLER = LOOK BETTER
just open up the sony ericsson mic unit and there is all the wiring label print on the small little circuit board. just follow the tutorial for the wiring code and solder into it.
work great but no volume control , have to control from the phone

Maybe a little bit complicated...but let me suggest...
Take a Female mini usb from an old device (for example). Connect/sold/attach it to a Female standard usb (not all wires needed). Use startreck usb cable to charge
so close its exact
micro usb is the 3125 adapter type
Is this the same connector?

I thought the Qtek 8500 12 pin connector was unique to that handset. Have you just searched for "micro usb adaptor" or do you know something we don't?
If this would work I'd be very happy but I don't think it will.

"A regular micro-USB port would have been better than the proprietary HTC port, but we understand its necessity for the slim shape the phone has"
buy it and try it
quote "A regular micro-USB port would have been better than the proprietary HTC port"
The port on the 3125 is micro usb, the port on say a 8525 or 8125 is Mini usb
I am not saying the adapter will work, only that it is a micro to mini adapter and it should work.
it seems that some people on the forum say they have a standard micro USB connector on the Flyer??? and most of the ebay sellers list standard micro usb products for the HTC Flyer
MY connection is a proprietary one - it looks like a micro usb but has a 'step' in it
like this one...zoom in on the picture

Try it, you will like it, except for charging.............
try what? what will i like? what about the charging?
off the shelf micro usb works fine.
The proprietary style is only for charging
If u have a micro usb cable then u have to put it in the opposite way. Like this
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
It's a generic micro USB connection. The extra's is just that, extra. And not mandatory. I read somewhere (could be here, could be somewhere else) that they made the different connector so you wouldn't use the charger on a device that can't handle the power. But you can use any micro USB cable to connect the device to your PC. And you can even use any micro USB charger, but you'll need a lot of patience as it'll take a long, long time!
While you can use a standard micro USB cable, I have heard it would be better to use the HTC one because it will stay in better. I have used a standard one just fine, but the HTC one does hold in better IMO.

Its both proprietary AND standard. As vj092887 said, you insert the micro-USB male plug "upside-down" from how you would on most HTC devices. And it plugs into the "bottom half" of the jack. All this is in respect to the tablet laying flat, with the screen facing up.
If you use the included charger or sync cable, it takes up the "whole" jack. Sync doesn't really make a difference. But the included charger is much faster than standard HTC Micro-USB chargers.

Shortly after I got my Flyer, I was at work and wanted to connect it to my laptop. And realized I had left my (HTC) cable at home, sticking in my PC there. I was also kind of disappointed as I had bought the flyer specifically because you could use a micro USB cable!
So, I thought, well, why not try it and see if it fits. And as I generally always first try to stick a cable in upside down (don't ask me why, even if I think about it, I'll try it upside down first ), I got lucky this time and found it fitted

i NEVER put in cables upside down (because i always put a little dot on the top side of the connector using nail polish...you can use liquid paper for a more 'manly' experience)
Is there a source for an innexpensive extra cable? I've been using a standard micro USB and it works but feels very loose compared to the official HTC cable that came with my flyer.

If you mean with a HTC style power connector, no, that's for charging only. For data cables Ebay or Amazon has them for about $1 each.

I wouldnt buy those generic cables from ebay/amazon etc they are poorly made and can either break off in your device, break off the connector on the device, or short out.. I highly recommend getting either Motorola or HTC OEM cables. They cost $2 - $5 but its worth it.

Does this mean that the MHL adapter with 5 pins will work (standard Micro USB), and I don't need the 12 pin MHL version (extMicro USB)?

yes! but apparently it charges really slowly so microUSB is best left to data transfer only

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough. Although a standard micro USB connector works for me when transferring data I don't like how loose it seems in the Flyer's socket. So I want another cable just like the one that came with my Flyer, a micro ExtUSB cable. I've only found mini ExtUSB cables not micro ones, hence my request for an inexpensive cable source.

there are no inexpensive extUSB cables...i don't know where you are but try expansys or amazon in your country...they're all upwards of $20
There is no 3rd party source for the non-standard HTC proprietary connector.
HTC manufactured Windows Mobile and Android-based devices have a proprietary connector called HTC Micro ExtUSB (Extended USB). ExtUSB combines Micro-USB (with which it is backwards-compatible) with audio input as well as audio and video output in an 11-pin connector. The extra pins also allow for higher charging currents.
If you really want to spend on a high quality cable, here you go, the best, most expensive per foot USB micro cable in the world . For ~$25 this should keep your Flyer and small pets from bursting into flame............

By the way, all the generic or other brand MHL adapters work fine with the HTC for connection to HDMI.
Anyone know about a splitter that will take the 30-pin input and let you use one side for the 30-pin power adapter and the other side for 30-pin accessory like USB OTG pigtail?
I'm in the same boat,
Search and search but nothing,
You get USB to 2 30-pin but nothing for 30-pin to 2 30-pin adapters
The only option you have is to buy a Galaxy Tab break out board from Kinetica and solder your own cables to it..
What do you want to use at same time?
It would be nice to run external power while having an accessory plugged in such as the SD or USB drive or keyboard. I have 2 USB keyboards that have the pointing device built into it.
look in m y post in the make your own cables thread.
i added power to the odks circuit board and can watch movies via hdd at same time as charging.
easier way would be use the breaK out board though..
I have the connector parts, just I have to know the pin assignments...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1155065&page=11
Look at this thread..
Try my post first one before this page..
It explains it..
pin 7 is the posative 5v @2amps...
pin 30 is the earth..
(this is how i run it in car connected to 2 amps 5v source)
works well and if start close to 100 percent battery power leave it plugged in it doesnt drop anything even after watching 4 movies in a row still is 100 percent.
eventually i disconnected it to let the battery drop down alittle as not sure if good to keep it at full charge?
Maybe the best way would be try to follow my dock mod?
that way you can just use the 30 pin usb adapter and add a powered hub.
havent given an update on "line out" output as my usb adapter is covering it up
the outlet socket.might consider opening it up again and finding out if works then relocate the 3.5 stereo socket outlet.maybe could just solder some wires to it inside and add a new output some where else more accessable..

Havent seen that cable before...anybody tried it?
Just curious IF and HOW it works...
I modded my dock to accept charge and host at same time but only triggers charge when hdd is connected whilst power applied.
I've got one from ebay. But its very poor quality. Its functionality is OK, but you cannot charge the Tab. External power is used to power the USB devices. It switches between internal Tab 5V and external 5V when applied. It ok with USB hdd that needs power.
o.k. thanks..
Cant help but wonder about the possibility of using it as charging and host at same time by using different resistor than 20k.not sure if you guys seen the thread about host and charging on galaxy s3 (hw mod) but they discovered a different resistance value 40.2k that could make the power part of the usb travel in both directions at the same time allowing this to happen...
im thinking the same could maybe happen for our 7.7 tab.

Hi,
I wonder if there are any concerns regarding a magnetic charging cable from eBay (china).
Normally I wouldn't buy cheap china stuff, but since it's just a cable: Can the chinese even mess up a simple USB cable?
I don't want to spend 35€ for a dock just to pull the cable out, thats stupid...

Hey guys!
I was thinking about geting a magnetic cable for my OP5, they seem greate for beeyng very practical to use and in theory helping to expand the device's usb port life.
So with that in mind, does anyone have any ideia if...
1- Is there a 4A magnetic usb C cable compatible with dash/vooc?
and
2 - is there any chance that using a magnetic cable would cause damage to the phone?
Nope no dash charge just slow/about 1A. Don't think slow charging would kill your phone. I use em all the time and have had no problems this far.
Same here, I have a micro-usb magnetic connector for my smartach and another magnetic type-c for a tablet and both can't deliver more than 1A , but they are indeed very handy !
Hey guys just found a 4.3A cable, the problem is that its made for notebooks which means the connector is L shaped.

Is there something else about the OP stock cable besisdes the amount of juice that it can put thru? (considering that that ports a usb-c on one end and usb on the other)
I always thought that there wasn't any other cable compatible because before apple put a usb-c charging/data port on macbook there was no market for a 4A cable apart from Oppo and Oneplus.

Quoting the part of the article that talks about the cable "they won’t be compatible with the high current that’s supplied to the device".
So if the current is the only reason... than i believe it could be compatible sense it hits the 4A spot.
Compatible or not the seller/manufaturer will only ship the cable once it hits 200 pcs sold mark, which is pretty far from the current 42 pre-orders. That's too bad i was actualy willing to buy and test it if it wasn't for this.
Any news regarding this?
