Does anyone know where else I can find myself one of these: Deluxe HTC Touch HD Desktop Charging Cradle -
Code:
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/17918.htm
They've been claiming its available soon for months now.
I've been checking this site out because they seem to be the cheapest, however if anyone knows of an alternative location where I can get this desktop charging cradle for as close to £19.53 please let me know.
Thanks

Let you know when I get it on the build. Mobilefun have a big problem with getting in stock with new phone items. Took me 4odd weeks to get my diamond desktop cradle!
I got the deluxe cradle from eXpansys as a bundle together with the phone. The price was reasonable that way but if you want to get the cradle on its own, the current price is a lot more expensive there than mobilefun. Also my phone arrived first and had to wait for the cradle more than a week so I guess there aren't many of them around at the moment.
Ebay for 22 pounds has it but it is simple and ugly...but I bought it anyways...
As for what was written on the ebay one you found I got that one too, just ordered it last night, but it not at all nice, or very good looking it seems...Have you seen the blackberry all nickel and black holder...now thats a telephone cradle!!!
I made one myself.....

I'm in oz, I am having the same problem with the, 'available soon' down here also, so I gave the g/f a job to do while she is in the UK.
She has found, as you have, that even the stores that are showing 'in stock' actually dont have any.
One store has told us, 'they had them but have run out but are getting more stock this friday'.
IF they do get them, AFTER the g/f grabs mine, I'll post which shop here.
( price is £22.95 )
try the one from dealextreme, its good
its does his job
Arrived a few days ago brought it off ebay from hong kong only one seller so far
fits snuggly but little hard to get off one handed. Probably it will loosen up.
Lid to the spare battery charger is a bit flimsy worried I will snap it off.
Back has usb power input and usb to your pc.
Does the job and looks nice
bad points are that the lid is flimsy and the blue light that is at the front is very bright, if your like me you have the charger next to your bed then you dont really want a lit up blue room. I will try a black marker to make the light smaller might help maybe not?!

Note that is not the duluxe model but a different one.
http://www.idedata.no/butikk/butikk.asp?m=5&b=295
ordered mine from mobile fun on wednesday afternoon and it arrived yesterday morning - less that 24 hours
it is nice and sturdy, but really required 2 hands to remove the phone because it is so light, but then i guess it would have to weigh a fair bit to allow one handed operation.
As mentioned before the spare battery cover is flimsy as hell but seeing as I dont have a spare battery - this doesnt concern me.
Overall - very happy, it comes with a USB lead AND a wall charger so you can sync to pc and charge at full mains speed.
Well worth £20!
Hey guys check out this pack. It's cheap i'st it?

OK so I got this at my BBY.
Callpod FuelTank UNO
It works pretty darn good (especially with the HTC adapter that has ports for charging,3.5mm,2.5mm)...I stream from Flycast and Pandora almost 90% of the time in the car so battery drains pretty fast on 3G).
My battery doesnt dip below 93-95%.
SO my question is, will using this HURT the G1 in any way? And if anyone else has tried it....I paid $40 for it....it was this or the USB PowerStick.

I had $50 of best buy money got it one for $40. Completely solves battery problem without ever having to buy a new extended battery w/ larger cover. I doubt it will damage the phone. I've used it so far and nothing has happened. It's probably the same as buying a non standard wall charger, yeah there is a small risk but nothing is likely to ever happen.
I HIGHLY recommend one to solve the battery issue on G1. It is easily the best purchase I've made in years at Best Buy. (I never buy anything at best buy their products suck) It can charge the phone ~3 times for one Call Pod Uno Charge. Call Pod charges rather quickly in 2-3 hours. The call pod Uno is the exact same size as a G1 in height and thickness, I consider that rather small for the boost it gives. It can fit in a pocket if you had to since its the same size as a g1 phone, but you probably wouldn't want to on a regular basis. The Call Pod Uno has a feature that will tell you how much charge it has left by indicator lights that light up, and it will shutdown automatically when nothing is charging in it. It comes with a dongle cable to charge an Iphone or G1, and you get one free cable for any other device from their website with a redeemable coupon.
My only annoyance so far is that the cables they give you are somewhat short so you can't twist the Call Pod around and maneuver it to a better position when charging. Also the cables seem cheap. Finally, don't look at the picture on the box it looks nothing like what the actual product looks like. The picture makes it look black it's silver and the lights aren't as intense as the picture makes it seem. If the color was black and not silver it would be better. Also, the case it comes with sucks.
Think about it though an Iphone charger alone is ~$20 and an g1 charger is too. This includes a g1 charger and the battery and the dongles for only $40. Although it's expensive you get your moneys worth if you think about it that way.
Here:

Pic for size idea
Yup...thats it!!!!
The pouch is pretty, well, weird, to me. Wish I had it close by to take a pic of it.....
I did notice on mine the cable says TOP on the head of it, but you plug it in with TOP facing the bottom....this makes my G1 sit face up and the Fueltank back up...
Where do I buy one?

Well if you read above. Bestbuy.
Well I will be returning mine, possibly exchange it but not sure, maybe just get my money back...looking up reviews now....
Today i had it plugged in and removed the plug, put the Callpod in my cup holder, than noticed that the connection on the phone was a bit off center, just enough to where the connection wont go in so i can power the phone.
i eventually knocked it (by tapping the unit on my hand) back into place, i can hear a piece of broken plastic moving around inside...it will charge the phone still but if you just touch it it will turn on and off repeatedly..
hopefully its just a faulty unit ( Like i said before, i did notice that the connection was in upside down).
Hope Best Buy has a good return policy because I cant find my receipt.
I would perfer something like this, but as a holster.
I posted a thread a while ago (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554057) about it but I guess it lost its popularity. It's basically the same thing only it's also a holster as well that clips onto your belt or whatever. Pretty neat idea I think.
i like this i saw it on a friends iphone and think it would really cool to have 1 for our phones i vote on it
I recently sent my Tilt 2 back to AT&T for warranty and was given a different handset.
I want to give away the box and everything that came with it to anyone willing to pay the shipping cost.
It includes:
Box
Stylus
Battery
Rear Cover
Screen Protector
Wall Charger
I estimate that shipping within the continental US would be roughly $6
I'd rather help a fellow XDA member out rather than just throw it out.

Do you know if the stylus and battery cover will fit a T-Mobile TP2? I'm interested if it will.
I could use this......
Where do I sign up?
Sounds like you are moving on to another phone. I recently got my Tilt 2 and its perfect for me, if this is still open I can pay for the shipping. Im in 90748.
i could use that stylus and battery so let me know what i need to do
just curious,what phone did they give?
You wouldn't happen to have the 5-in-1 dongle - the one that lets you listen to FM radio, do you? I lost mine some time ago and would like to replace it. PM me here if you can help out.
Thanks!

Well I actually "had" multiple issues with my Tilt 2 on 3 different occasions which allowed me to pick any phone in the same category. I ended up with the Samsung Captivate which I ended up giving to my cousin.
iboj007: I believe so. It plugs into the mini-USB/Charge port at the bottom of the phone. I can't swear, but I believe the dongle has a mini-USB Port, and at least one headphone port (for 2.5mm) and I think it also has the third headphone port (for 3.5 mm).
It's black (that's the only color I've ever seen it in), and it' looks like a box (with all the ports on one side) and the dongle that plugs into the phone coming out of the "top" side.

Yes, exactly!
I'd be VERY happy to receive the back cover alone, and pay for shipping plus packing.

I would be interested in the battery... mine is on its last leg and lasts about 2 hrs....
I know this is a bit late, but I just saw this thread. The T-Mobile TP2 battery cover is different than all the other ones. Only the T-Mobile battery cover will fit the RHOD210.
what problems did u have with it. just curious cause i want to make up some kind of problem to pick out a different phone. lol im tired of the tilt 2 already. had it for a year and cant do what i want anymore and i want to hop on that android bandwagon for once. =P
do you have any of the stuff left or do you already gave the items away.
I don't own one but if anyone is in the market for one. discount code is "evo3d3500mah"

what an incredible price! but I'm not sure if the battery is that good...

I ordered one. I will be pulling the sticker back to see if there is any indication that this battery is less than advertised just like on my thread about the ebay batteries I got that were supposed to be 1850mah and under the sticker it said 1000mah. I will report back when I get it and update this post with my findings.
I have been ordering stuff from Handheld Items for awhile now since their stuff are cheap and shipping is pretty damn quick.
I was thinking about ordering this as well but in the end, I decided against it because quite simply, most of them all seem to be fakes for batteries like this. I ended up just ordering from Seidio since I don't want to waste another 18.99. Of course, if someone can confirm this is actually what it says to be, I could probably return the Seidio or sell it
Looks to be the exact battery selling on ebay for around $8-12. How fast is shipping usually with these guys?
For those who can wait 2-3 weeks, here's the ebay option:
http://cgi.ebay.com/3500MAH-Extende...ccessories&hash=item3f0c5c0c07#ht_5017wt_1163
I bought an extended battery for my Evo 4G from that seller and it worked fine.
I usually get my items from them in like a week.
Ordered on the 5th and it arrived on the 9th. Not bad. I pulled the sticker off of the battery and no where does it have any thing stamped on the metal like some cheap batteries will have a much, much lower mah than the sticker says it is stamped on them. I just got. It's charging now. Give me a couple days and I'll post how it is lasing so far.
Thanks for your update housry23, please keep us posted with your results.
thanks and please keep us posted!!
I assume this provides full protection to the cameras?

Just got mine today. Haven't used it yet, but I can't use it with my external charger.
I got mine yesterday, charged it all night, so far it seems a little better (but maybe thats just me being hopeful). I'll keep testing it for a few days, wouldnt feel right making any claims until then, i have my doubts. Not sure i'll be able to deal with how big it is but if its actually a better/longer lasting battery, i may use it when i travel and stuff.
OK I've had mine a full week now and let me say, the honeymoon is over. After a few good charges this battery will have a 50/50 chance of NOT booting up and even if it does for some reason the power is so inconsistent that the phone seems to randomly cut off even at 98% power. I've recalibrated my phone a couple times and past the first couple days this battery has been horrible.
Sorry to hear that, are you going to request for an exchange? I could understand short battery life but to shut off.

That is why its 13.99....its ****ing crap. Quit being cheap asses and spend the money on decent ****. Its like computer PSU's, you get what you buy. Buy cheap, expect cheap ****.
Sent from my EVO3D(overclocked) via XDA App
^^wow that's pretty harsh, I can't justify paying +$80 for a battery. Plus the fact Ill probably be using a different phone by January. Mine should be here tomorrow, if its a dud, no big deal, Ill ask for a replacement. I hope I get a decent battery. Ill post what I think, although I don't think ill use it much since the stock gives me usually over 12 hours.
I have this combo from eBay.. charge gets better and better.. I typically have 50% left at the end if the day

Not too impressed with the battery life so far, I charged it up to 96% and went out. I lost 10% the first hour wile the phone was in my pocket. Im under clocked with the screen off 432/ conservative. That's pretty much the same or worse than the stock battery. I would expect a maximum of 5% drain in a hour while the phone is sleeping, and that's being generous. I know southern87, its "13.99 ****ing crap" lol. Ill give it a few days to see how it goes.
The back door is definitely more sturdier than the oem battery cover, but of course, not as pretty. I like the uniform shape over the funky sedio sloped cover. Now I just need a TPU case to fit the phone now.
Just to be fair, the more I use the battery the longer it goes between charges. So all in all its worth the few bucks if you are willing to deal with the extra bulk of the phone. It'll come in handy for times like camping, biking/hiking with the gps running, etc.
Asus uk shop has the charger and USB cable in stock now for £24.99 with a free delivery offer. Ordered one this afternoon and already got the confirmation that its been shipped. Not bad when you consider it includes the very rare USB cable.
The link is //shop.asus.co.uk/shop/gb/en-GB/Home/3-Accessories/11-Batteries--Powers/88-Adapters/90-XB2VOKPW00010Y-ASUS-Eee-Pad-Transformer-TF101-Adapter-%28with-EURO--UK-Plugs%29.aspx
EDIT: Looks like free delivery was only for a few days, now adds £6 but if the total order is over £30 you would get free super saver delivery, hope that helps.
Just ordered one of these, as I snapped the topmost prong off the plug during some hasty unplugging - ages ago and have'nt since taken the plug out the wall. Thanks for the nudge!

Possibly-useful information for anyone considering ordering one: I ordered a charger for £24.99 inc free delivery from ASUS UK on Friday August 12th; it arrived today, 17th - so that's about three working days.
The charger they've sent is an 0B-3LF (or OB-3LF), as opposed to the 2LF which came with my device originally. The new charger has some superficial labelling differences but appears from the outside to be identical. Some subjective testing suggests it does not get as hot as the original but I can't be certain about that.
They also included, unbidden, a free micro-fibre cleaning cloth thing which is quite cute (has a sticky side for attaching it to the device for storage). To my mind that brings the total value of what I received to about £10-worth, not £24.99 - but what are you going to do?!
How long is the cable?
Cable length
+1 on the length
Hope its longer than the original.
Still no car charger either, Asus come on..

Well, I know everyone will be *amazed* by this, but...

At the shop.asus.co.uk website the price I see:
£24.99 ASUS Eee Pad Transformer TF101 Adapter (with EURO & UK Plugs)
£6.00 Ship by UPS (buy over £30 merchandise it is free shipping)
(£5.17 Tax Included)
--------
£30.99 Total for one (1), or
£49.98 Total for two (2) with free shipping.
If I buy over £30 merchandise it is free shipping, but is there some coupon or other deal for cheaper?
Did I miss something?

UPDATE:
Thanks @maxh2005 I corrected my calculation above, you are correct the tax is included.
I guess it is worth buying two or something else to get free shipping.

Seems they had an offer on free shipping when I placed my order, because they charged me £24.99 in total. But I just tried shop.asus.co.uk and at the moment it's quoting £24.99 plus £6 shipping, making a total of £30.99 of which £5.17 is VAT.

Just done exactly the same myself.
Just the plastic top lug, so now when i plug it in i have to use a pencil to open up the top hole in the socket before pushing the adapter in.
Not paying 30 quid for a new one unless i have to.
If Asus would only sell just the clip on uk bit, I mean they are selling the kit with other country adapters included.
Suppose if i do buy a new one though then I could fit the euro bit onto the old one so i would then have 2 chargers, the euro one could then be used with a euro to uk travel adapter.

There are many different cheap solutions u can buy.

thanks will give one a shot
tried 1st one - drains power from phone instead of poviding it (when using supplied power cable). doesn't provide power to usb/SD adapter either
not sure whether to risk money on the rest now
sorry I cant se a charging port on the first picture.
The one in the middle has the icon for dc power. Just as it would provide charging power if you connect a normal charger there and then the device into the phone.
I have never had one of these so I cant provide any real life info or review of these devices. But damn u got a hold of one of those quick. It would take me a month to get one of those to my mailbox if I ordered it now.
edit:
it also states it will charge
"2. Charging when you connected the micro usb cable."

It was ages since i shopped there.
amazon is just a ripoff shít page.. they selling everything overpriced with shipping costing more than the item... and combining that with tax and import fee and the possible difference in currency from when total cost is calculated to when the total amount is withdrawn.
You could buy ten units for the price of one unit from Amazon at ebay or aliexpress.
eh... i dont live in a country where amazon is based. Nearest amazon is German amazon. It works using translation at every step until u get order confirmation
eh? it was £5 delivered next day and the ebay link is $6 minus postage to UK so not that bad i think

from china (which to be fair can be quick delivery, or take a while) versus the convenience of having it the next morning when ordering late afternoon?
plus returns have to be considered (as i'm doing with this).
i'm not against ebay and use it a lot, but some things i want "now". not a week or 3 later and willing to pay more for that hence amazon - and only amazon prime and their lockers.

you can ask seller to send the parcel with singapost as they are very fast with delivery. And you can always return item without any problems.
You can also use some social engineering to get refund without even sending the item back. U can also get a new item on top of the refund.
Social engineering is a bit harder with Amazon depending with what office you reach when opening a ticket. Just because amazon has a whole department of people working to prevent these costumers by making it harder. A lot harder.
I agree with you. But I only pay more if I know exactly what item i need. Like a specific spare part if im in a hurry.
heh, i know what you mean about the engineering. i know someone who does that with everyone.
usually when i want something that's not a spare part then i want it asap. a spare hdmi cable or something i can wait and will buy off ebay
