where to buy USB cable?

hi does anyone know where to buy a USB cable (like the one that connects to the plug for charging)?
Is there an official one? does that even make any difference?
have tried looking on dealextreme but couldnt see anything
Why not use a standard miniUSB cable, it fits perfecty, although the interface looks kinda different.

Like leper04 said, any standard mini-USB cable will work to charge it via computer USB. Or are you referring to a wall-style charger?
didnt realise any mini usb will fit. the only other one ive got is for the ps3 pad charger that dont fit. isnt the port on the touch a different shape to stop you using a generic mini usb cable?
no even if it's a extUSB then normal miniUSB cables are compatible and works just
fine
mainly because the extusb part of miniUSB can only be used by headset
chargers and sych cables only use the miniUSB part
just tried the mini usb cable from my ps3 and it fits perfect. Excellent! Dont know why i didnt just try it myself before. Thanks for the help guys.

Note that many retractable mini-USB cables can charge, but cannot sync the Touch HD. I have a bunch, all of which do not work. Darn. Of course there are some that can sync, but these are in the minority it seems.

[Q] Has anyone tested the G-Tab with a Bluetooth Mouse?

Just wondering.
I'm wondering how and why you could or would use a mouse on a touchscreen device without a pointer...
I have a BT mouse I got from Woot! awhile back, and it doesn't work. It will see it, but expects a code to pair with it. I've tried the usual combos and none worked, but on Windows 7 or MacOS they pair with it without any codes.

Some of the versions do have a mouse pointer once you have the mouse connected. I think Zpad does. Have heard TnT does not.

I only have one BT mouse to test, and it's never worked on any mod I've used. So I don't have the metrics to know if TnT would work with any BT mouse.
Well I just tried to plug in a usb mouse in TnT-Lite 2.1.1 an no cursor appeared. I am personally fine with the touch interface but it is a shame it was not detected right away.
Usb or Bluetooth Mouse support and Bluetooth Tethering are the last things that I want to get out of the gTablet... then I will be as pleased with the device as I can possibly be.
Gamestring + gtab + wireless mouse and keyboard = portable bliss
Last night I tested usb keyboard (HP OEM), usb mouse (Logitech), bt mouse (Logitech) with TnT Lite 2.20.
The keyboard was recognized right away and from a few seconds of testing, seems like all the keys that should work work.
Nothing noticable happens when you plug in a usb mouse. I have feeling TnT just doesn't have the drivers to recognize any mouse.
BT mouse pairs when I use the passkey '0000' and the gTab reports back as paired but not connected. I confirmed with my Logitech user manuel that the passkey if needed is indeed '0000' and trying another code causes the mouse to not connect at all. I haven't found a way to get it connected. I have the same feeling its because there are no mouse drivers in the TnT framework.
If you're looking to get a mouse to work in TnT Lite, I think we will have to ask Mr. Roebeet for some more magic.
Can the mouse services be ripped out of the Zpad ROM and put in the TNTLite ROM?
Running CM 6.1b4 here and I plugged in a Microsoft BT Mouse w/ a USB adapter and the cursor popped up right away and actually worked. I was unable to find it when I scanned for devices w/ the gTab's bluetooth, so you'd be stuck w/ a tiny dongle, but at least it's wireless. Here's a quick vid I made on the droid of it working,

Got mine working like a champ! I have the Logitech Dinovo mini key board. I had to use the dongle that comes with it though . I would get the same paired but not connected msg without the dongle. Put in the dongle and boom, works flawlessly. All I need now is the HDMI kit so I can lay in the bed and use this thing as a mini HTPC when I travel. Thanks guys!

[Q] HD dock and mouse/keyboard

Got a quick question for those of you with the HD dock. Are you running dual USB devices for you mouse and keyboard, do wireless usb devices work for the dock sans drivers, or has anyone found a way to pair dual devices to have a bluetooth mouse and keyboard functional?
My dilemma is where I am planning on putting my dock, it's going to be really difficult to use wired devices because the dock is going to be located physically behind me. I need to find a way to go as wireless as possible so but at the store we were only able to pair up one bluetooth device at a time. Has anyone found a work around for that?

I've tried a couple of wireless keyboard/mouse combos plugged into the dock and neither worked. I'm currently using a powered usb hub plugged into the dock with a Logitec keyboard and mouse plugged into the hub. Works great.

Damn... That's what I was afraid of. My issue is I'm placing the dock on my nightstand located next to my bed for charging purposes. What's throwing me off is in one of the videos demoing the dock it shows them using both a wireless keyboard and mouse. It's gotta be possible, but I have no clue how. At the store we couldn't pair up two seperate bluetooth devices at the same time.
May have found a solution to my problem. At a local Compusa I found a bluetooth keyboard and trackpad in one. I'll take it to work and test it out... If it works, I'll report back.
My Logitech Wireless Desktop (USB Unifying receiver) worked fine, out of the box - keyboard and mouse.
There shouldnt be any reason that your generic wireless device/receiver combos dont work since they're simply a transmitter/receiver pair, your problem is likely with the lack of adequate power supplied by the dock. Theres no way that power supply puts out enough to power the phone as well as the USB ports so thats probably why the powered USB hub mentioned above solves everything.

Logitech Unifying Receiver

I have a logitech keyboard (K800) and a logitech mouse(M325) which i pair with a single unifying usb receiver under my PC.
So i decided to do a little test, i unplug the receiver and connect directly to my tab via the usb connector kit. Guess what? Both the keyboard and mouse works
That's good but AFAIK, that works on other Samsung devices too.
great!! Im buying an adapter right now!
which usb adapter do you have?
And is the wheel working?

Does Lenovo P8 support OTG Usb?

I want to connect a Bluetooth receiver for a keyboard and mouse. And occasionally attach an Ultra Fit USB Thumb drive.
Yes, it supports USB On The Go.
