Stores sellig mini to micro USB? - Nexus One Accessories

Any stores selling mini to Micro USB adapters ote rthan onlne?

check www.monoprice.com ... just got ordered 6 micro usb to standard usb cables (of assorted length, from 1.5 to 6 ft) for $12 bucks shipped, priority mail.. then got a wall plug at Target that takes 2 USB cables for 20 bucks... works nicely.

I accidently tripped over my charger cable and some how my micro usb got kinda bent out of shape, I was a bit upset at how cheap the charger looked. It wasn't very HTC like. well I ordered a cable and a wall charger, and a car charger. I might be buying the car docking station when it comes out. It'd be pretty sweet.

Best Buy has a ~2ft USB cable with a mini plug (same as G1) on it but it comes with a mini to micro adapter. I dont know about data on it but it works great with existing mini wall and car chargerrs. The adapter is only about 1" long. The one that I bought at Best Buy was 14.99 and made by rocketfish. Only one I could find with an adapter.

If you have a fry's store nearby, go there. I think you can find mini-micro adapters as well as micro-usb cables. Plus, Frys sells these things at far lower prices than bestbuy.

I'm getting this one:

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.32597
CAUTION - this site is a kinda "I WANT ONE OF THEM, OH AND ONE Of THEM TOO but don't really need any of it". My first time there I got pig torches, rare earth magnets, a green laser & a dolphin bracelet for my lass (a token gift for my lass) - none of which we needed!
couldn't help my self - cheap as chips - with free delivery to boot
And before you ask, no affiliation with dealextreme.

i didnt have the time to wait for one online so i just found one at a local circuit city store and was done done with that issue.

Got one from my local T-Mobile store.

Just got mine on Ebay for $3.25 includes shipping.

Just wanted to mention, everyone spending $2-5 on adapters could get a micro usb cable from Monoprice.com for $2-3 and not have a little adapter to keep track of.

HTC desire EU charging adapter

did you look on ebay? This don't need to be specific from HTC. Look maybe for UK to EU adapter or something like that...
It has to be the same design, because the HTC`s chargin unit is designed in such a way that it enables switching the adapter that goes into the socket.
na žalost.

So something like that will not work:
If not then is cheaper buy EU charger because this combined is way to expensive...
no, I have that. That`s not a problem. I`m just looking to get the original HTC part for that charger. What you can do is take out the UK plug and put in the EU one. Its interchangable.
Anyway, they only have this at the moment, might wait.
edit: found it, but its expensive
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Plug-P300-I...?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1270812930&sr=8-10
You can still just plug the 3 prong UK plug into a EU adapter but then again it kind of defeats the point behind the plugs design. Why make it like that if they aren't going to offer the plugs individually? Some people may never need the American or Australian plugs.
I know that I will use this adapter with UK charger, because I charge my phone all time in same place(overnight near bed)... So I have my charger for TyTnII untouched cca. 2 years connected to same plug and this adapter will not be problem. But if you travel a lot I think you can easy lose or forget somewhere this adapter(can stay in wall "plug" and you forget take it out)...
It's probably easier to find a complete new set of charger, plug and cable. Found one on ebay that sells for 9€ (shipping included, at least in germany ) - so thats just a bit more expensive than a simple power adapter that would look not that good / bloat up the whole charger.
Added Bonus: In the rare case your charger unit blows up, you got a spare one
I received and invoice from expansys (who run the http://www.htcaccessorystore.com) just for that part. They want 7.77 for it.
Got the adapter today. Fits perfectly, great to have an interchangable part. Is was 7.77 with delivery.
Nice find
@JaykaySLO
Thanx mate for the tip
Been searching for a while for that adapter!

There is also a similar model with a charging recess to take a spare battery. I have that and have found to work well. I will see if I can find a link tomorrow.
Only real drawback is the flying lead connectivity... I still hanker for the simplicty of dropping a device into the cradle and having it mate with a built-in multi-connector rather than the fiddle of plugging in the less than elegant uUSB flying lead. The price of the ultra-thin form factor I guess.

TG01 docking station
I just bought two of these - £3.99 each including postage, can't go wrong. Just got them this morning and they look great and do the job, finally a decent stand for the TG01
I have finally found the source I obtained my pair of docking stations - similar to the previously quoted example on eBay, but these came from a supplier in Germany and have a built-in recess with charging capability for a spare battery in addition.

So you have to connect a cable first, then put it in the dock?
It's more of a stand in a way?

That's correct - but with the side mounted uUSB port on the TG01 and no mating port on the bottom such as was typical on earlier devices, it's difficult to see how they could have done much else. It works fine though apart from the slight niggle of having to plug in the uUSB lead.

I have found the cradle to end all cradles..... hehehehe
SUCH A PAIN IN THE ASS TO ORDER THIS STUPID MOTHER BLEEPING THING...
Ok, no more capital letters, so here is the story, I go on amazon cuz I liked the idea of having a cradle for this device. Yeah yeah, it is old now, but I love my TG01. I will own this phone for a while. So I go on Amazon.de (keep in mind... I live in Japan) and I find this AWESOME (sorry I lied about the caps) cradle, and as the Germanz would say, "zee kruadloo izt aweeesome." Unfortunately I am in Japan and can not buy it. So I signed up with a freight forwarder and then bought it under their name, and hopefully this 25 dollar item will not cost my 200 in the end. Take a look everyone, even has a charger for an extra battery in the back, made specifically for the TG01, as soon as I get it, i am going to cut the cable off and mod it with a 90 degree angle cable and then I will have the perfect dock.
http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0039IJL1O
Yeah, I searched all day long to find this somewhere else, somewhere for cheaper shipping and handling, in total this 25 EURO item will probably cost me at least 70EURO to get it too me... wow... I am retarded.
-Kilinsane.
Hi Kili,
Good luck with the cradle - looks the same as the one I previously posted about - in which case should do good service. One tip - the second battery charging slot is very handy, but does have one quirk in that it doeesn't seem to be happy with a completely flat battery being put in to charge. In that case just sits and blinks - but if the battery is maybe 2/3 discharged or less then seems fine. I've noticed that my (completely separate device) very decent AA and AAA NiMH programmable battery charger also doesn't like fully flat batteries - it will refuse to charge them until they've been started off in a dumb charger first.
Let us know how you find the cradle when you receive
Best regards,
Kevin

Micro USB host cable

I have looked all over the place online for a Micro USB host cable (micro male to usb 2.0 female) and cant find one anywhere, ok cant say anywhere because they have them on ebay from hong Kong. Can anyone point me in the right direction of a cable and not an adapter. I see all these picture of the cable I am looking for hooked up to a Xoom but cant find it anywhere.

I would like one of these as well. I can find adapters everywhere, but I have no doubt that I would break one off if I got it. I've found the Hong Kong stuff on ebay as well, but I don't really trust that stuff.
Its not that hard to make your own if your handy and have both an extra female USB and MicroUSB cable lying around.

I got a micro to full size female adaptor off eBay from
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180648882313
I then got a full sized USB male to full size female extension cable from
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230449719867
It is not pretty but got from NY and OH cheaply. It works well for reading my thumbdrive. Be advised I got two micro to full female adaptors from a company on EBay called cablesonline.net. Their adaptor will not work in my Xoom. The pinout is different I guess.
Does this adapter have the pins 4 and 5 shorted on the micro USB side to activate USB OTG host mode on the phone ?
Or else it's useless.
You now find a lot of cables, too, but the question is still pending...

Save yourself the aggravation and just get one of the Moto Camera Kit cable. Yes, it's pricy but you know that it works. The others are really hit or miss. I got lucky on one, but missed on three others. At least the misses were fairly cheap...still...
I bought ohne AT Amazon
http://www.amazon.de/Nokia-Micro-US...KI/ref=sr_1_23?ie=UTF8&qid=1312475592&sr=8-23
IT works just great, looks good and is flexible due to the little piece of cable between theplugs.
Only thing, you'll have to do is, file the corners of the micro plug to a more round fitting. This could be done in two minutes and is quite easy.

I think I'll have to use a powered USb hub, as the HD2 doesn't seem to provide the necessary power supply.
OMG! Just buy the motorola one. You may say it's $20, but hey at least you know it works. Trust me you want the real deal if you use a usb hdd so the wiring is not cheap. That way if something fries then you weren't using an off brand that voids the warranty.

Agreed. The moto cable is well built and the perfect length for me. I use an SD to USB adapter for my dSLR and am able to plug this in through the moto cable to my xoom and just have it out of the way.
I purchased this one from ebay:

It arrived in under 10 days and works fine and was only $4 which included shipping. Also, the 90° end is really nice.
Sorry, couldn't make the link, not enough posts.

Thanks, I ordered one. Good buy!
Damn man. That's crazy. Although I thought $5 was a good price for my 12 foot cable. Although, I would never use this cheap of a cable for my home entertainment setups. The only kind of HDMI cables they see are ones made by Audio Quest. I prefer the Chocolate series since its right in the middle in terms of silver content and price.
Before anyone tells me its a digital signal and all HDMI cables are made equally, you can save your breath. I've seen the quality difference in both sound and video first hand. Have fun powering your 55in. high end Plasma or LED with your Dynex cable.

You paid how much for your TV?

Gonna trust a 55 cent HDMI cable with them?
Hey, maybe they work fine. I purchased a 2 pack of 6 foot HDMI cables from BJ's for $20.00. That was a year after paying nearly $40 for one at Radio Shack. They work as they as supposed to.
Who knows?

I got a cheap HDMI micro cable for my G2X and it kind of sucks. It has to be kind of jammed in at an angle and the slightest movement will cause drops in signal.
Now, does anyone have a recommendation on a good cable? Price isn't an issue.

I got a nice one from Best Buy and ordered the $5 one from ebay. The one from Best Buy is by far a better cable. Think it was like 30 bucks.
It's 3 bucks after shipping. I dont mind trying it out to see how it performs. If it works great, if it doesnt, thats fine too. I didn't even plan on using the HDMI port on my G2X, but for 3 bucks, I'll give it a try.
Monster MediaBridge HDMI Cables
If they were 50 cents with Amazon Prime I would get them.. but $3 after shipping or $4.99 w/prime.
However I've purchased some cheap hdmi cables online before and had hit & miss experiences with their functionality. However I've had nothing but good experiences with Monster's mediabridge series. I have a 6ft, 15ft, and 25ft HDMI>HDMI of this cable and they are sturdy and reliable.
$8.99 w/ prime on Amazon, so they're not THE cheapest cable you can buy but its a great one for the price.
Mediabridge - High Speed Micro-HDMI to HDMI Cable with Ethernet - 6ft
Luckily I have a good 10 or 12ft HDMI>MiniHDMI from my Canon ELPH so I'll just keep this bookmarked until that one needs to be replaced.
I got my HDMI cable today. It came from Hand Held Items (HHI). The cable is great... no crazy video and the audio is awesome. Nice gold-platted ends as well and they fit in my tv and phone just fine.
.50 for an HDMI a cable that gets the same job a $6 - $30 cable can do. Thanks for the recommendation!

My thoughts on the Orzly Type-C Cables

With there now being a clear distinguished line between what cables are certified and what aren't by Benson Leung, shopping for additional Type-C Cables is a little easier. So as I was after a new set of cables for my Nexus 6P, I was mainly looking for a pack that offered the best value for money.
I came across this Orzly quad pack on Amazon.co.uk for only £17.99 with free delivery so works out to about £4.50 per cable which is a bargain. I probably don't need all 4 cables, but it's nice to have spares if I ever lose or want to keep one at work.
I've tested these myself using the CheckR and Current Monitor app and all the cables pass with flying colours. I may just be repeating what many of you might know already but I thought it would be good to share my opinions and experiences with these cables on here.
Overall the build quality of the cables is really nice, robust and don't look like either ends will start to fall apart after some use. Would highly recommend these to anyone looking for additional Type-C Cables.

You're lucky! I missed that deal but still thought these cables are great value for money and work great!
I bought this exact 4-pack from Orzly for $15, received them just about a month ago, and now they are all broken. The USB-C connector first would bend, then would break off completely. I've emailed them and am waiting to hear back. Curious how they hold up for others who got these.

Yup Very frustrating, because after the first two broke I figured I must have been doing something to stress the connecter (even though I've never had this issue with any other cable on any other device over any length of time). So, I consciously babied the remaining two and they still broke the same way. It was definitely not user error . . . these things were defective, is all I can think. Maybe the ones I got were from a bad production run or something . . .? I don't know, but as mentioned I emailed them via Amazon to see what was up. Ideally they would send me a new 4-pack that weren't defective, but who knows. I'll update if I hear back.
