Hey which ever one you get/got could you tell us how it works?

Hi,

Thank you in advance for any useful information.

Hi.
I've got solar charger at work (I'm selling it, not using ) and I've tried it with my Magic (there's a lot of plugs to suit all mobiles ever created and mini USB too). Works fine even with artificial lighting (i don't know what UV rays it catches without any sun...). On the first sight I think it's so practical that i would throw away my regular charger just to use solar one. There wasn't second or any more sights... I'll check it out in near future.
I would like to apologize for my poor english (in fact i don't really know how much mistakes i've made)...

HTC USA could not repair T9193

This is suck. I could not get a repair done in USA because T9193 is Australia model. I am asking your guys for help. My T9193 was happened:
"Hi guys: Somethings wanted to share with you guys. never never put your phone to the car charger before you start the car. It happened to my HTC HD2 T9193 now it can not be charged or data xfer. the orange led not light up also there is no ac icon instead of battery icon on the display. now I have to use swapping battery instead of charge it. if you see this post your are a lucky guy to know this experience . by the way, anybody knows how much will cost to repair and where?"
Your power supply probably surged when the car started, frying your motherboard USB charging circuit. You are looking at replacing your motherboard, which is universally not worth it (just buy a new one).
Leddy, I posted this in another thread but maybe you could help me out?
"Does anyone have the HTC Touch HD2 T9193?
If so, could you show me what the screen looks like with the fonts set at max size?
There's also supposedly a feature that lets you enlarge the screen 200% and I would love to see some pics of what that looks like 'cause I really have a problem finding a phone where the stuff on the screen is big enough for me to see without glasses.
Maybe someone could do this and put it on a scanner so I can get a good picture to scale? I could then download a pic of an iPhone and scale it to size and compare the two side by side."
THanks

[Q] Car Chargers

Has anyone found a good car charger that they know works with the Focus? My dad's super-paranoid about my phone, and wants me to have a car charger. The problem, as many of you probably know, is that the Focus seems finnicky about what chargers it gets along with. Does anyone have one that they've tried that works?
I went with the Belkin Micro USB car adapter, works great, especially if you need to charge other USB devices.
This is the charger I used. It's made by Motorola but it works great with the Focus. Plus the LED light is a transparent window which looks awesome. It doesn't quite look like the photo. It's also discounted. I'll probably be ordering a couple more to keep in my other car.

IGO
I use the IGO car charger with the tip for my Samsung Focus. I also have the tip for my wifes Samsung Sync A707. I also had the tip for my FUZE when I was using that. It was nice, we could travel and just bring the additional tip and charge either phone. Works on my Focus very well.
I bought my Focus from Costco and they gave me a free no-name chinese car charger with the phone. I used it only once so far and my phone did not explode or anything, but I don't know if it was actually charging or not. The battery icon had the 'plug' graphic on it, but how can I tell if it was working properly?
I ended up getting a cheap charger off from eBay, it's kind of like the motorola listed that has the USB port. It also came with the USB cable and another house plug-in with the USB port. I travel a lot for the military so I like to have a spare cable and house charger.
i've used a Griffin which has a USB plugin...from my blackberry phone, HTC Tilt2 (winmo 6.5), HTC Aria (android), and will use it on my Focus. but with the battery, i haven't had a need for it yet lol. off the home charger with a full charge at 6:30am...drove to atlanta (well covered 3G area) to Athens (so so 3G) and all the back home down back roads through no name towns (spotty coverage). it's now 5:30 and i'm still showing half a battery gauge. that's with a few calls, plenty of texting, and a lot of web browsing.
damn i love this phone
I use one I got from Costco with my Backflip last year. I figured all micro USB would be fine.
Got a couple Rocketfish ones from Best Buy - work great
IMO, the Belkin is nice because it is low-profile. a very clean looking charging setup. Also can use whatever microusb I have handy rather than some dedicated cable.

Get the OEM charger here. I have had no issue with the MicroUSB connector, unlike my last car charger that just died. Can't beat the price either.
I bought three of these chargers...
I got three of these chargers off amazon. They are oem, but are official motorola and look really nice. They have a translucent window with the M on them that lights up when they are plugged in. They are a steal at less than five dollars. Go here-->http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Vehicle-Adapter-micro-USB-Charger/dp/B000S5Q9CA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1304549428&sr=8-1-spell.
That's what I got too, just through Amazon for prime 2 day.

Docking station

Hi all.
Anyone know, where bye this thing?
thanks.
AFAIK it can't be bought because it doesn't exist. So this thing bye, bye :-(
there's little or rather no support for accessories for phones that have little market shares such as our good o'l SGA sadly..
Well... HTC have dockinstations for some of their phones, so how about getting one of those (one that fits), it's all micro USB after all. Your phone will be upside down btw.
Take a look at the Philips AS111 Fidelio
You can use a dock charge for Ace's battery. It is YIBOYUAN.

External wall charger for the Note 2

First off i am not a noob and yes i have googled for the past three days to find out if what i want is available. the reason of this post is that so far as i can see, i am not able to get one to India (where i live). This is what i want or something similar:
http://gorillagadgets.com/dual-wall-charger-for-samsung-galaxy-note-2.html
this is a wall charger (and i dont mean the ones that come with the phone). the link above is for charging two batteries at one go. i am ok with getting a device that charges even one battery. i have looked high and far and though there are several options like the hyperion and anker (which come with the external chargers) they are not shippable to India, which is the crux of my problem. Hope to find some light here...help...please?

wow! 79 views and no reply yet!! it is this too basic a question to merit an answer or is it that none here knows the answer
Your best bet us gonna be to look to other countries other than the US. I would contact samsung korea and see what they can do for you. For some reason my country doesnt like to ship priducts overseas one piece at a time. Lol

original docking station
i dun think they come with the wall adapter though.
the purpose of an extra battery is to take it out with the wall charger so that i can leave the battery and the wall charger at the power outlet itself. However, though your docking station is good, it would not serve the purpose cause i would have to then take quite a few extra things...the dock itself, the charging cable etc etc thus occupying more space...eagerly looking for more replies and thanks for the ones that have taken the trouble to reply

Chargers? surprised this thread doesn't exist

So I just ordered the phone but I also realized that I will probably need a new charger and a longer USB-C as well. So would you, dear XDA members, in your ever-infinite wisdom enlighten me as to which chargers/cables are best for this phone?
Why would you need a new charger when there is one bundled with the phone? Any long USBC to USBC cable is fine with the bundled charger.

Because having multiple chargers is convenient and better than moving around with a single one. Also no, they are not the same an Anker powerline series isn't the same as some ****ty $3 Chinese knock off.
How is "moving around with multiple chargers" more convenient than moving around with a single charger?
Might as well carry multiple phones & battery-packs in you rucksack while you are at it!
The "Anker powerline series" are more than likely made in China too.
I wouldn't call the ROG 3 original charger a 'cheap knock-off' or be derogatory towards China.
I enjoy having a charger at my desk, by my bed, and one in the kitchen. While I can walk the charger around, it would be very convenient to simply plug in wherever I am in the house. It also ensures I can leave one in the bag without having to worry about forgetting yet another thing.

I would say to buy another official charger and cable as it is a true problem to find a good charger and a good cable that will allow you to charge your phone the same way as the original one that is of a really good quality.
