Wizard (Mini S) and the Royaltek Sapphire - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories

Hey guys.
I have a XDA Mini S (Wizard), as you probably know it has the mini USB connect at the bottom, I need to connect it to my Royaltek Sapphire.
I need a cable that will plug into my XDA, and preferably my cigarette lighter too, anyone know where I can get one?
Thanks In Advance

I don't think your Royaltek Sapphire (GPS receiver, I presume) will work by connecting it to the mini USB of your Wizard as the Wizard does not support USB host. The only (I think) way of getting GPS to work with the Wizard is via SDIO (SD card) or bluetooth.
There are tons available in eBay. Try it.

22pin connector for MDA/XDA III anywhere?

Hi!
Anyone fonud out until now where to get the 22pin connector for the MDA/XDA III device? It has changed a bit from the iPAQ 3800 style, so accessoires for I/II won´t work
Furthermore, has the pinout changed?
What I need is a cable for connecting my GPS-reciever, or the parts to build one.
Thanks in advance,
Danyel
OH NO, you are saying that the MDA II accessoried, chargers, etc., won't work with the MDA III?
Well, it looks like that...
I have an USB-sync-cable, car charger and my GPS-reciever. Without forcing the plug it won´t fit into the new connector.
The new one has a gab on one side and two little pits wich fit into gaps in the devices connector.
I´ll post a picture of the old and the new one... MDA III´s camera is not quite good for macro-photos.
Well, I have "reconfigured" my old GPS- and USB-cable. It´s just takeing away some of the plastic on the connector. Both cables work fine for the MDA III now, take a look at the picture:

i got the qtek2020 from vodafone D2. now i want to plug my usb gps reciever with sirfII chipset to the pda. 5v for the usb power comes from accus. this wouldn't be the problem i think. but how i figure it out which connectors of the pda are the right connectors for die TX and RX of the reciever? and the final question: is this what i want to do (usb pc gps reciever at pda) possible?

22 pin adaptor for QTEK 9090
hi, you need original connector you can try with 2020 22 pin but after some days or week you will damage you QTEK 9090 and you not be able to use anymore the connector! i suggest you to buy ORIGINAL see here available : http://www.bluetrade.fr/achat/produit_details.php?id=76226
i hope i'm logged in now!
to dev_dme you missunderstood me? i have an usb gps mouse so i need a seriell one. and there are no converter from seriell to usb.
to last guest
i think i posted in fals thread. i have a qtek 2020!!!! no 9090.
There are USB to serial converters made by Iogear, search the web. You would have to redue the cable to connect to your Qtek. But since you have bluetooth, though the old one away and get a blue tooth GPS, much nicer.
converters from usb TO seriell but not from seriell TO usb. i'm right?
The USB driver was on laptop to change the port to a serial port but the communication was bidirectional.
You could also look at maxim semiconductors, I know they make a chip that converts serial to USB but I couldn't find it.
http://www.maxim-ic.com
but i need usb to seriel converter..... i want to use an usb device at a seriell port
They have a device, I saw it in EE Times twice (as I said I need that) that will do exactly what your looking for. It would connect to a USB device, takecare of all the protocal and then spit out serial bits of the data. I beleive the formating (USB-serial bin/ASCII, bit ording) was able to be changed via reg settings.
maybe search EE times website.

Well, your GPS mouse is a USB client (slave). You can only connect it to a USB host (master), which the XDA II is not. So you would need an adapter that contains a USB host. As paulmc says, they seem to exist, but seem to work only with "big" Windows (they need drivers), and I am quite sure they are really expensive.
I really recommend you get either a Bluetooth or a regular serial GPS mouse. Both are easy to connect to an XDA II.

1. There are several. Try www.pocketnavigation.de for a start.
2. There are voltage regulators you can buy. But be very careful, the voltage in a car is full of spikes and other nasty things. You need a good voltage regulator if you don't want to endanger your new Holux. The usual solution is to buy a holder for the PDA that also has a connector for the GPS mouse. This gives you a well filtered voltage for your mouse.

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:
http://www.netimes.com/shop/stereo-headphone-adapter-for-htc-startrek-platform-p-421.html
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

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.

Car charger

I think its possible to use the same carcharger from the HTCTyTN (Hermes) and HTCTyTNII for the HTC Touch HD. I read somewhere its possible. Somebody any experience with that!

Unfortunately, it's NOT a standard mini usb connector. HTC has a different connector that very much looks like but isn't mini usb. You can't use a mini usb cable with HTC devices.
Here's a picture of HTC connector: http://www.tracyandmatt.co.uk/blogs/index.php/2006/09/10/htc_hermes_usb_connector_pin_config , as opposed to the mini usb connector (http://www.accesscomms.com.au/reference/usb.htm)
What's true, though, is that all newer HTC devices use the same connector, so you are able to use the cable from any other HTC device you might have.

You are wrong. With the Touch HD comes an ordinary Mini USB cable.
Charging is done by the pins for normal USB. The ExtUSB additional pins are for a headset only.
this is the one I use and it works no problem .....

The connector is compatible with mini usb. It looks different, but you can still use a normal mini usb connector, trust me, it works
I tried the same carcharger on my Touch that I used for my HTCTyTn, it works during navigation and it works good. But at the same time the battery needed a recharge to. The only thing that regonized was that the device was warmingup, but not extremly.
In the past, sometimes, but not always the TyTn get the same warmingup. But never had an real problem with that.
Is that a normal behavior
Car Charger
Could one of you please advice me, whether I can use the same car charger, (not the usb to mini 11 pin USB cable) which I had for my XDA II, for my Touch HD? I am concerned about the output from the charger for XDA II as I don't know whether it is a 5.0V one, as required for Touch HD. Thank you.

Hi all,
I ordered an original HTC car charger. Because it had an mini usb which looks differently, I called HTC.
They assured me that this charger was ment for the HTC touch HD and could be used without a problem.
The car charger comes with an mini usb plug.

The HD plug is compatible with mini USB. Yes, on the HD it is flat on one side. Don't worry. You can use a regular mini USB charger. There is no forcing there, just look at the pictures...the connection showed there can take "more" than just mini USB, not less. A normal mini USB is bevelled at both sides. on HD it is bevelled on only one side, meaning you can fit there a "bigger" plug (read extmini USB), not a "smaller" plug
Oh, maybe I forgot to mention. I have a HD, and for the last time, you can use all your mini usb connectors on the HD (I use 4 different ones, at work, in car, at home for charging and at home for sync). They all fit, it is compatible...no forcing!!! End of thread....please....?
I made a video for those who do not believe that a miniUSB can plug into extUSB socket -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n05lUtReubU
I use a genuine htc charger which charges quicker than a generic one from the lighter socket. I believe this is because generic charger is at the standard usb 500mah where as the genuine charges at 1000mah and therefore a quicker charge. Note your power supply (the one which plugs into the wall) supplies 1000mah.
By the way, I've used various cables with my phone and although the connectors always fit no problem, that doesn't mean they actually have worked!
For example, I've tried a power supply for an older Orange SPV and was surprised when it refused to charge my TyTnII!?
I've also had other issues with usb connection to my PC where it will charge from the usb port but will not connect to Windows until I change the cable. The cable that didn't work, works perfectly well with other mini usb devices. This was actually from a Belkin 16-in-1 card reader thing... never had much faith in belkin!!

can you take a picture of your mini USB (assuming you have HD)?
My HTC HD has the special connetor. the regular mini USB does not fit into the HD jack.
The only option I see is to get a generic lighter plug with standard usb jack and connect the proprietary cable and stick it in the plug.
But you still beed another cable (one at home and one in your car)
I had the KJAM and it has a standard mini usb - It does not fit in the HD.

I think it would be better if you show us a picture of your mini usb plug, the one that does not fit. That makes more sense than us showing a "regular" mini-usb plug that fits in the htc extusb, which is backwards compatible with mini-usb.
btw, did you watch the video from salcho? that says more than pictures I guess. Please, make a picture of your mini-usb cable and show it to us here.

Connect a USB stick/drive to polaris

Hi guys,
I was wondering if it is possible, or if there is an adapter to connect a USB stick / drive to my htc touch cruize?
Example
Please let me know if I am thinking correctly before I ruin my smartphone.

It is not possible. Polaris cannot be used as USB Host - you cannot connect USB devices to it. You can only connect Polaris to PC using USB cable.
But, why don't you just buy a small adapter, that way you can put the micro sd in a USB adapter and voila, you got your fully loaded USB stick! Sandisk includes them with their micro sd but these are UGLY...

Don't know sure for HTC Polaris, but I saw in one Russian and Chinese forums that they did for RoverPC and Amoi as USB host.

data cable??

Hi guys...I juts what to know which kind of data cable do you have for your s740.
a
HTC S740 mini USB Data Cable DC U100? http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=172183
or a HTC S740 Data Cable DC U300 (USB/ExtUSB)? http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=172186
and whether it is possible to synchronize the phone using a U100 cable.
Thank you.
You can use any mini usb data cable, I have one from htc, another from a nokia device and one from a video camera and all of them works ok, with no difference.
Indeed, mini USB is a universal standard...pretty much any mini USB cable will work with the Rose, or any other mini USB device for that matter.
Thank you for your reply guys...I have one last question...do you know which cable is included in the box with the phone when you buy it?
A simple generic USB to mini USB cable.
