Hey there xda'ers!
I just picked up a Titan 4G for $30 :laugh: I always wanted one, I'm using an S3 right now and I plan on switching back and forth at my leisure.
The problem with the Titan is the charger port is VERY finicky. You have to really push the micro USB in and get it in just right for it to charge.
I found replacement ones on eBay for around $7ish. Has anyone replaced one before? Do you guys have any tips?
Thanks to all in advance!
Anyone?

have you checked there's no fluff in the original one? mine sometimes looks like it's charging, (ie light comes on red), but never gets charged. this usually means there's fluff inside the usb port and a good hard blow, (pardon the expression), sorts it out...

Sadly, the previous owner must have forced a mini usb into the jack or something, since all the pins are bent in. Or, it may have been dropped on the charger port while plugged in. All in all, the phone is in great shape for what I paid for it, as I always had a fascination with WP7.
I got a quote for $60-$70 to have the new USB port installed since it has to be soldered.
Even still, I plan on keeping it and ordering a back up battery charger from eBay since the phone is easily a 8/10 condition wise and I have already unlocked it :good:
I have pre-ordered the Xperia Z2 here in the UK and it does not come with the magnetic charger. So before I buy one, I wanted to know what the actual benefit or pro's of having a magnetic charger?

The only benefit is that the phone can be charged without open the flap cover on the top left of your phone. The magnetic charger also avoids damaging the USB port in the long run.

I would also add its probably much quicker to dock it than open the flap and pop in the cable
Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk
+1 for not having to open flaps. I also like the idea of the phone not flying off a table when someone or a pet trips on the cable, and that the magnetic one should just detach easily.

i have the magnetic lead, and altho it does detach easily if cord gets pulled it will still move the phone a bit, so dont leave it near the edge of table lol
I personally think these chargers are a complete waste of money and pretty much rubbish. Cheaply made, horrible fit. I use them on several Xperia phones and one's phone never gets fully charged at a hundred percent with them. If not opening the flap is the only reason you buy these charger , Sony is laughing at you.

i'm not sure how did u come to that conclusion.
I have been on magnetic cable since day1.
And Sony's original magnetic cable may i add. It is solid and well built and excellent fit on the strong magnet.
It charges to 100% as it should in the same amount of time as any usb cables.
and the reason why i have this cable both at home and office is so I dont have to open the flaps.
I used to have a Z and opening and closing the flaps is really a hassle.
not to mention that the rubber seals at the flaps get worn out over time
If any recommendation is needed, go get yourself the original Sony magnetic cables, and not third parties.
Saw many horrible reviews on third parties cables, as with shook187 input above, poorly made, took long time to charge etc

Do you know where to get original Sony cables? From what I can tell, Sony doesn't sell them separately, only as a part of their docks. It's unknown if the cables you get from other sources are official.

The biggest benefit would be you never have to open the flaps when charging the device. That'll prevent the waterproofing from wearing out as easily, though Sony claims the flaps should last throughout the life time of the device.
Anyway I've been using the magnetic cable since day 1 and have had no problems at all. I'm using the official cable which is strong enough for you to pickup and use the phone while charging. It'll still detach or "rock" about if you move it but it's no big deal.

There's no such thing as a "Original" or "Genuine" magnetic charging cable from Sony, they're all 3rd party, the boxes are fake.
If the accessory is not listed on sonymobile.com then it's not genuine.

I don't think those cables are from Sony. Looks like fake.
I'm reading a lot about people's magnetic charging port coming out. From the sounds of it, a lot of these people are using after market 3rd party cables, not Sony's official dock.
I want to know if anyone has had this issue, while ONLY using the official Sony dock. That is the true way to determine if this is a Sony issue, or a third party issue.

This is a common xperia problem even with the sony dock, i hear its usualy caused by thick screen protectors but it seems to be false
I recommend not buying one or just being very gentle with it if you do buy one

OK, so my next question would be what's causing it to come lose? Is it the magnetic charge being connected for long periods of time (over night)
Or
Undocking the phone which would slowly over time pull the magnetic charging port out of the phone
If it's the latter, does unplugging the docking station from the wall release the magnetic charge? Or do both (docking Station and phone) have real magnetic charges regardless of the dock is plugged into the wall?
If the dock doesn't magnetically attract to the phone when it's unplugged, then a simple user fix would be to just plug the dock prior to Undocking the phone.

AFAIK it's just a plain old regular magnet that it's using. It doesn't "switch off" it's magnetism like an electromagnet.

That's what I was looking for. I contacted Sony and they confirmed either loose flaps or magnetic port being dislodged would be covered under warranty.
Sent from my One using XDA Free mobile app
If yours comes loose just use super glue to put it back on. It worked well for me and the port still works. Although I don't think its waterproof anymore.
Defective Design
My magnetic charging port became loose and fell out after 1.5 mths of exclusive use of a magnetic charging cable for charging.
Examining the port, it is clear that it is only attached by a bit of glue.
My assessment that this is a very poor design decision by Sony. They should have designed the port to be physically impossible to come out without disassembling the phone. I would even call the design defective for a phone that is supposed to be waterproof.
Sony agreed to repair my phone under warranty, and upon my request, agreed to provide a replacement with a new set. Unfortunately they have said they will only do this once.
This is a warning to anyone thinking of using the magnetic charging port for the long term. Be very gentle attaching and detaching the phone from the magnetic charging cable/dock and do not apply force!
A bit of glue?
@stopspam
Could you provide more details about the glue, perhaps we can figure out weather the device remains waterproof after the magnetic piece falls out
Sent from my D6503 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Or maybe we can pre-empively apply a small amount of epoxy around the edges of the magnet on the exterior surface giving it a little more incentive to stay put?
Had the phone for nearly 3 months and have been using magnetic charging cable only from day one and no problems here. 14w16 here.

Can anybody comment on the Magnector X cable? They are supposed to be different, with better magnets, etc.
Just got my z2 yesterday, haven't had time to set everything up, but from the looks of it, the magnetic port is sealed in there. Doesn't look like it would easily come out even after a lot of use. Hopefully Sony fixed this issue with newer batches (week 23)
Sent from my One using XDA Free mobile app
can anybody explain how to change it please!!!
It's been 3.5 months for me since I got the Z2 with dock and everything else. I haven't had any indications of the magnetic port coming loose and I think I figured out why.
When I remove my phone from the dock I don't pull it out vertically (assuming it's sitting on a table on the dock). I pick up one corner and try to angle it out of position till the magnet lets loose. Now I have no idea if that's actually what's helping it but it would appear so since I haven't had issues with it.
Of course it could just be caused by defective docks with too strong magnets but I guess we'll never know..
Right guys I'm so ticked off right now. I bought two adapters. One a couple months ago. I lost it. Another one (the deff one from clove) a few weeks ago. I also lost that. Because they were both £10+ each its pissed me off a bit more.
My question is has anyone bought one which is good and has a strong magnet? I was considering these Sony cables that are on eBay, obviously fakes for the price they are but I'm not sure. What's your guys opinions?

Hi, I recevied a magnetic cable bought on ebay (10 euro). I tried it yesterday for the first time and after 6hours of charger the battery level was 52%. The magnetic connection is no strong and I think that cable doesn't work properly.
I will try to buy the adaptor suggest by @tonysunshine
i brought this one over 6 months ago works perfect only goes on one way says + / - on the plug if put on wrong way phone will turn itself off so not sure how MotoXoom fried his ?

i haven't used one myself yet. but a friend bought magnector x cable. and it seems to work pretty fine. magnet is strong charges quick. but not as fast as official dock or usb. but it seems pretty nice as most of the cases are not dock compatible.
http://www.amazon.com/Magnector-Per...qid=1411902689&sr=8-1&keywords=magnector+x+z2
I agree the magnector x is pretty good and the magnet is not all that bad, one thing to mention is that the magnector x is not compatible with all cases as the sides may disconnect the magnet.
My first one was the magnector-x but I found with that when I picked up the phone it would just fall off. Same with the deff. The problem I had with that is the fact that the charger wire seemed to be in opposite direction to the connector and therefore ended up not sitting correctly

MotoXoom bought a charger cable that does not have the cut off feature or detects that the charge has been connected the wrong way. So he basically shorted out hsi phone because it did not cut out. This was NOT a magnector-x adapter
The cable i brought doesn’t have a cut off feature? The phone has it, if you put a positive on a positive the phone shuts off.
As far as I know there is no protection whatsoever except for the mechanical small asymmetry (look at the phone connector and compare the "lower" with "upper" plastic tabs).
Certainly there is no electronic protection in the phone. Some phones survived "reverse connection", some not.
I don't think it can be any electronic protection in the cable or charger; they are designed to give out 0.5-1-2A and certainly that are most likely enough to fry the phone. MAYBE some wimpy chargers aren't capable of that but it's better to assume all are dangerous.
Has anyone ever tried one of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161404030047?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT or http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Magnetic-...lePhonesCasesPouches&var=&hash=item4d2641788c

Can you tell us the "week" of the device? You can go under the right flap, there's some plastic tray (similar to the sim tray on the left) there should be the IMEI and some other info, including something like 14W15 (meaning for example 2014 week 15). I've heard the ones after 18 shouldn't have the "unglued magnetic port" problem.
But yes, I really had to get the device for the 2 feature missing on most other phone (waterproof with external no-flap-removal charging and lanyard attachment point) but the S5 would've been better in every other way. Including the fact that 5>2 and it seems it counts. Probably Z5 would be perfect, if we ever get to that.
I have a pain in the bum case on atm and it will some work removing it. I just had another look at the magnetic port and yes it can be completely removed by just the magnet. From looking at the port there appears to be two pins and what appears to be some glue in the middle.
Could I not just super glue the port back into the phone?
If I look closely enough I can see that pressing down on the magnetic port opens up a smallish gap which I would assume would let water in.
My magnetic port moves too if a push it (even a little). And it was supposed to be from the new fixed batches.
WTF Sony? Metal and glass phone, parts held together by spit.

Hi Guys,
I'm looking for a car dock for my Nexus 6 similar to the pro clip or this fix2car mount http://www.holdersandmounts.co.uk/f...on-mount-dash-mount-with-usb-car-charger.html[1]
Basically my criteria are that I want to be able to take the phone in and out of the mount without having to attach the USB cable after. I want the USB cable to be fixed and the phone simply slides in to it.
The pro clip would cost me 150$+ and the fix2car one I linked would run me close to 70$. I'm looking for something about half that price.
Hope you guys can help!
Thanks
0 replies on XDA and on reddit, something tells me i'm about to drop a hundred bucks on a car mount... AGAIN!
PSA to anyone thinking about it: DO NOT get the airdock 2, it's a piece of poop and the phone falls off constantly.
If you must have the fixed plug, you could hack one in place with some JB Weld. A lot of guys did just that back in the "old" days.
Or suguru, that stuff works great for something like this. BTW, my airdock works great.

If you would like to charge your phone in a car dock without having to attach USB each time why don't you get the QI charging dock? It is about $35-$40 here in US, probably about same in UK. And will work with non-bulky case.

welllllllll the reason why im trying to avoid a QI charging dock (which btw is not a make or model but the technology, can you specify which model you're referring to?) is because i bought this neato quick charge usb lighter thingy and i'd like to be able to use quick charge..... wireless QI charging is pretty slow and when having the screen on, and steaming music, and using maps for nav, it doesn't actually gain any charge!

the problem is that QI will bottleneck your charging. using a quickcharge usb lighter thing will work via a cable but not through QI!
QI will support up to 15 watts of charging in the future, it was actually announced like a couple of weeks ago or something, so future models will support quick charging
I have quick charger at work and at home. In the car I need the dock I can use with minimum effort and without connecting/disconnecting USB frequently

it can if you have it completely tightened down, but you would not be able to pull the phone in and out if it was tightened down. the way i have it now is the clamp holds on to the lip of the phone but not so tightly that I can't easily put the phone in and out of the dock. The clamp does not press on the buttons, this way.
