portable x10 phone stands - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone got any recommendations for phone stands for the x10 (attachable to the device itself via lanyard thing).
i.e. I have a plunger phone stand, but it got worn quickly and the rubber is soft-ish now and doesn't do the job very well anymore. It had a small screw/hook thing attached at the end of the plunger handle which had a keychain which I then attached to my phone. (like this one: http://jietron.en.made-in-china.com...ina-Plunger-Stand-for-iPhone-JT-6008216-.html)
or anyone know where to buy this?: http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/479150822/universal_stand_for_mobile_phone.html (not 100 of them)
or x10case/stand or anything that I will go with my phone?

have u checked in ebay ???

Dealextreme has a Plunger stand. Lol, never saw one of these before. Gross.

I do like the one by these guys thanks going to buy for my X10 & Iphone.

Best Car Adapter?

Which Car Adapter do you recommend guys for the Hero?
Ive seen these:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/WINDSCREEN-MO...ries_MobilePhoneBatteries?hash=item23038de0be
This looks a bit cheap
What about this one, looks half decent:

Any other suggestions peeps?
I use a Brodit active mount. Looks good but is not cheap (about £30 ish in UK). But then I just slide the phone in and charging starts as soon as i switch on the ignition. I have used Brodits for my last 3 phones and all have worked well.
Cool you got a link for it, found it about £34.99 anywhere recommended?
Thanks dude
Got mine from prepaymania - it was £27.04 including delivery. Now it is £28.22.
They were fine, but got let down by the lying toads in the Royal Mail who insisted they had tried to deliver but I was out. The note saying that got delivered the next day by the postman! So had to collect it from my Royal Mail depot. But NOT Prepaymania's fault.
BTW I have mine hard wired in via a ciggy lighter behind the dash. Don't try wiring it in direct or you will fry your Hero because the ciggy lighter adaptor houses a voltage reducer. No wires show and I mount it using a car specific Brodit car mount as well.
Cheers dude. I don't want tyo drill in to the dahs, do they have a sticky thing that has to go on the dash as well? Or is there another way of doing it.
appreciate the link
Look at Brodit's site here. Click on "choose the mount for your vehicle" and put in the details. They do fittings for almost every car going and none of them involve any drilling.
You then need to find somebody who stocks them. Normally easy (prepaymania may) for more common cars. May have to wait a bit longer for unusual ones
Make sure you order one for RHD cars if in the UK!
I order the one on ebay but It broken after couple of twists. After a good glue it works perfectly!
I do not know if it affects th G2 battery life a lot but i use one of my blackberry phone chargers i think it's the one for the bold 9000
so far i didn't notice much change in battery life plus it chargers more than 70~90% of battery life in about 30-50 minutes.
just to add to my previous post. I have a silicon case on my Hero and that won't fit on standard car holder. My trick is to light it up so it warm up and expand it a bit and it fit perfectly!!
Ive bought one off ebay now, a herbert reicher one! I think thats what it is called!
Will see how i get on with it!

Avoid londonmagicstore on eBay.
I bought one of these holders and they sent me one that was meant to be a for a Nokia N97 and then insisted it would fit the Hero too despite the size difference. My N96 I had at the time fit so an N97 or Hero would just fall straight out lol. Sent back and got a refund luckily.
If anyone could recommend a car holder that would be suitable for running the Hero in landscape mode I would be grateful, the Brodit and Herbert Richter ones don't look to be secure enough.
I'm looking at one on Mobilefun that seems to be the correct version of the one from Funkyfin's eBay link.
A few days ago I bought an HTC car kit. Unfortunately as a new user here, I'm not yet allowed to post external links but the name of the kit is "CU-S210". Just google it and you should get a lot of results.
It says HTC on the box but if you look closely, it seems HTC buys from Herbert Richter (the flexible mount is labeled "HR" and on the cradle, there's a "made in germany" and I assume, it is HR as well since it looks exactly like the HR ones).
My opinion: I haven't gotten round to testing it on long trips but so far it works quite well. The phone is easy to get in and out but it still feels safely in place, even in landscape mode.
Well, if you drive a landrover through the rocky wilderness on a daily basis, I assume it wouldn't hold forever (however, then you probably wouldn't use a phone for navigation anyway ^^ ) but for regular street use I see no problems with landscape mode.
My brodit holder for the Hero works fine in landscape mode - in fact that is how I use it most of the time with my sat nav app. It has a ball mount so swivels easily and holds the Hero very securely

has anyone tried this case??

I have tried the search but couldnt find anything about these.
So has anyone tried this case???
I have tried the original, a pouch and a hard rubber case but i wasnt fully happy with them. this however looks sorta like what im after.
Im just wondering if anyone has one and what they think of it? has it lasted a while or does it fall apart when you touch it??
Thanks
looks like what im after and cheep too, shame its for lefties as it opens the wrong way!
but its the right way for the phone flip, i was looking for one in the market today but couldnt find one, my mate got one for his 5800 and it seems really good, but his was cheaper on ebay lol
TP2 case
Not sure about protocol for selling stuff on here but I'm a saddler and have made a few phone cases for people.
I've got a TP2 myself and have done one for another owner as well.
I've attached a couple of pics of the miniture handbag style case I did for my wife and a semi completed case for a customers touch pro 2.
More pictures of other work available, if anyone wants to see let me know.
I keep a range of leathers in stock at most times from the softer 2mm hides upto the very best quality English bridle leathers and prefer to use dyed through leather as opposed to the cheaper tooling leather that is then stained to suit.
You can get me on 07988-518176 or [email protected]
Cheers
Jon
Apologies if this should be in a different topic.
that is some very good work!!!! but unfortunately its not what im after
well ive orderd one, so ill let everyone know what i think of it when it arrives
Hey mate, any info on the case?
whoops i forgot about this!
I didnt put it on till a long while after i got it because i just couldnt be botherd LOL
but once its in you cant get it out without breaking the tabs on the case lol
the stylus is still ok to get to. Im happy with it for now with it being my 4th case
the side with 1 tab broke on me yesterday so ive got 2 useless cases.
dont bother with this case people, the tabs are a nightmare!!

Back covers

hi all,
does anyone know of anywhere that sells back covers for the x10
i'd quite like to get my hands on a silver/chrome one so it matches the chrome strip around the edge..
yes..
i realsie it will resemble an ipod
or even possibly Designed rear covers, something to set my phone apart from all the others becuase i couldnt afford the extra £10 a month that orangeUK wanted for a white one =(
hmm me too, I've seen some 'replacement' covers on ebay, but nothing in the way of aesthetic appeal.

Too good to be true?

I can't believe for any reason that all this would come cheaper than $10.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-S-Sha...ccessories&hash=item20c014ce8a#ht_3277wt_1396
Just wondering if anyone else had seen this...
It's true. I got same case for $2.95 and it's a great case. For the rest I can't comment. Anyway, you can't go wrong with this deal. China shipping baby...

It's true.. just some cheap stuff from China lol =P but ships from the US instead.
Purchased! I can't believe that price lol. Well to anyone who is interested, that is a deal to jump on.
I bought some stuff from itrimming years ago, yes cheap, I don't remember if I bought the radio transmitter, the case for my zune, charger, extended battery or what, but something I bought "broke" and something I bought "worked" so I should it was
What's a good rating on chargers for our phones battery? mAh rating etc. I'd like to get a car charger that won't quickcharge the battery but do the same "full" charge like an AC/USB charger
I just received my order from them. I got the same one execpt without the ac charger. It all works good. The case fits so well that the rockers are almost invisible on the sides. The clear shield is cut very accurate but a little small all the way around. Having not used any other shield that may be the way they all are cut. I don't work for them as everyone seems to point out.
I got one, I figured "tough case" incase I decide to go do or be somewhere where my phone might need it instead of my "pretty" SGP Neo Hybrid. + I needed a car charger. 8 bucks ain't bad.

Haha yeah I really wanted one of those cases but when I saw this deal i couldn't resist. I'll let everyone know how it fits etc. and if the accessories work once it all comes in. I ordered yesterday, shouldn't be too far away!
Ended up buying one myself. I'm sure the chargers will break sooner or later, but for the price . . . why not?
I have the same case, just got it on Friday. I've bought accesories many times from Itrimmings on e-bay and have never been dissapointed.
For that price i couldn't refuse....Nice case by the way doesn't add weight to the phone.
I have this case from itrimmings and LOVE IT.
I got the case and a different chargers in the full package today for 8 bucks it's alright but I don't feel comfortable dropping the phone in this case

I guess now it is too good to be true.
"This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available."
pics anyone?
For the $8 bucks, I'll tell you this. . . Well worth the $$ I paid. I got an extra wall charger for work, extra USB cable for the computer/lappy, extra car charger for trips.
The case, VERY NICE for what it cost (I think with everything else, the case would come out to $4) I am having some trouble getting used to the power button being harder to press, but other then that I can't say anything bad about it.
All the holes fit perfectly, it *kinda* sticks in your pocket, so its hard to pull it out while driving if needed. Other then that, I'd have to say its good enough for my needs.
A cheap case is fine, but your phone could flame up or explode using the wrong battery or charger. I think someone died once because of a pocket explosion.
Nice case for a decent price. Like the looks of it, but can't stand the feel of TPU.
Can anyone comment on whether the car charger (and wall charger) works with i777? I got a generic car charger when I upgrade the phone, but when I plug the phone into it in the car, the battery level _drops_ instead of increases! That basically makes it impossible to use the phone as GPS...
Amazing deal. Thanks!!!!
Just bought it

Repurpose for the dual screen case.

I see a lot of the cases ending up on ebay with smashed glass on the front for cheap. I was wondering if any devs out their would be able to point me in the right direction to attempt to use this case on a razpie or a PC. I assumed it was just display port over type C but I put my adapter to change it from M to F and plug it into the case and no joy. I also attempted to use a thunberbolt 4 cable to plug into the internal type c port and plug it into the phone this way. And still it wont turn the screen on. I have no idea what kind of magic they did and why (maybe a non standard port) But I can't get this thing to talk unless directly attached to the phone.
Thanks in advance. Just seems a massive shame for them to end up as E-waste. They are a great looking display.
Maybe some controler chip inside the phone not in the 2nd screen.
Let try to connect to other phone (the unit you know it can share display via typec port) for more information.
Btw i want to buy 1 like that, but ebay do not ship to my country.
Alright its worth a try. My neighbor has an S22. I just think it is strange because even when I used a thunderbolt 4 cable to connect from my phone to the case it still did not work. Only when plugged straight into the case.
Attached is the cables and adapter I used
EDIT: also aliexpress has the cases as well.
EDIT:2 Now I am wondering if the case uses MHL as MHL would also provide power and signal.
Its said that the usb c connector only carries power and that the display is wireless. I dont have any direct information as to the truth of that however.
I wonder

I wonder if that's true. Also the phone must have some kind of magnetic read switch. because I can turn it on away from the case if I put a magnet on the back of it. I sacrificed my beloved case for the cause T_T.
I also discovered if I use a typc c to type a cable usb2, the PC will say the device is a lv600 or whatever the sku for the phone itself is.
So I think without some kind of drivers this wont work. I think I will purchase a driverboard from ali and see if it won't work. So I will have to bypass the CB behind the display and hook it up to the oled directly because this thing has much more then just a screen inside of it it also has the buttons and secondary display. I was hoping windows would ignore all of that and just use display port alt mode over USB.

Has anyone actually gotten one from AliExpress? $30 for a working case with the magnetic adapter included seems to good to be true. AliExpress has good buyer protection, so I was tempted to try it anyway, but I didn't want to wait a month for it to ship just to find out it's a scam.

- Many times bought at Ali. I need to pay instally and waiting they shipping (a month or longer, very long shipping while i live near by China). Some shop is clone, they never send the good. But i can cancel it before shop send the good to transpoter. Can not return if something wrong.
- Bonus: i bought cracked front glass V60 dual case on Ebay from USA Shop for $39. I recieved it after 2 week (through the middle man) really fast. The Shop on Ebay sent me dual screen case with only 2 little crack (still good condition).
- My experience: On Ali only buy from shop is appreciate, don't buy working device, only buy parts as you know China is good place to find parts for repair device.
