I don't know why but my streak won't take charge from either my solar usb charger or my car usb charger. Both have a usb outlet to charge pda's but even though I'm plugging Dell's own cable into them. I'm gutted, especially as I'm getting nowhere near a full day on a full charge. Don't get me wrong, I'm loving the streak.

I bought an iphmoan charger kit from ebay. I think it was linked from modaco, at 1.99 gbp. Was even a local seller...
Bit cheap and cheerful, but it charges fine using the Dell cable, just as fast as the stock wall plug. Haven't tested the car lighter charger yet. But for the price can't argue...

Just had a look at that thanks, it does look the same but i read on that site people saying icrap chargers dont work maybe its the cheap ones that do work

yeah it definitely works, both wallwart and cigarette lighter, very cheap feeling but hey it works
can't believe how some of these ebay sellers work, 1.99 delivered yet the included postage cost 1.79..

thats the one I got, auction ended, but he's relisted them now at the same price, obviously we still need a decent cable,
but it's cheaper to buy a spare usb cable from dell (with 10% discount found on mydellmini ) and one of these than a spare charger set from dell.

longer charging cable

has anyone stumbbled apon a long charging cable? longer then the one dell sends out?

I bought this package:

you havent tried it? i wanna know for sure that it works before i buy it.

just placed an order for the 6 foot wire. thanks. ill post a review once i get it shoipped to me.

Own the 6ft cable and LOVE IT, works fine
Bought 6ft cable off ebay from yourcharger (at $6.99) and works like a champ both charging and transferring files. Worth it if you want a longer cable.

a simple solution is a USB extension cable.. like this:
http://www.bing.com/shopping/starte...F2F9A56C1B547?q=usb+extension+cable&FORM=HURE

i got 2 of the cables from yourcharger on ebay and both dont work correctly, with the stock cable my streak connects to the pc and makes the conection sound and i get the popup asking for usb mode. with the ones from ebay it starts to connect and i get device failed to install error or sometimes it keeps making the connection sound over and over like its shorting out.

Thats strange because the post above says it worked fine for him.

i even took one of the cables to my work and tried it on 2 different computers and the same issue i woul get a driver did not install correctly and unknown device, unplugged it and used the dell cable an it instantly connected and the enable usb poped up in the phone, i think either they are made wrong and the other guy was lucky and got the good one or its the resistance in the cheap chinese wires and its 6 foot long.

I use the usb extension cord. Works great. Peace

RussianSolja, ok based on peterson65's (great year by the way) input, I have to assume he received a bad cable. I didn't buy mine until I saw another review stating the cable work well for him.
On the other hand, to ensure no problems and long term use. If you have a traditional USB extension, like Radimus recommended, would go with that. Additionally that same extension can work with your other USB products as well.

i didnt get just one bad, i contacted the seller and he sent me another one stating he tested it in his own streak and it worked but when i got it it was sealed in a plastic bag unopened, another guy bought one and said in the feedback that its not a streak cable but an ipod cable? it may work for charging connected to the wall adapter fine as i have not tried that but 2 miss made cables in a row? i hope you guys get one that works but both of mine dont i should have spent more and got the dell one

yeah but dell dont have 6 foot cables

almost 500 sales so it must be working for a huge percentage of them, ive found that these sellers usually send you a new one if yours is faulty and not working properly...
i purchased 2x of some 4ft ones two days ago

In which case it wouldn't physically fit in the Dell Streak, as it uses a different connector to the iPod.
I bought 2 of the Streak cables (a short one and a long one) from the eBay seller, and they work at least as well as my genuine Dell cables. The plug on one of the genuine Dell cables has disintegrated.

Gald to hear positive feedback on theses cables and I'm glad I didn't waste my money on a cable that wouldn't work. Thanks guys.

I just got mine in and so fart the 1' one is working well, the 6' and 4" ones work as well. the 1' one isn't made all too impressively, has a cheesy connection head on it. the 4" and the 6' are much better constructed. I also bought their 4 aa charger for the streak. I'll test tonight and post.

Cheap 11 pin MHL on amazon for $10

I was looking for a cheap 11 pin since the genuine one wasnt worth for how little I plan to use it and I took a shot at this one after seeing some good reviews with s3 users.
since i am new user I cant post links. goto amazon and search for "Skque Micro USB to HDMI 11-Pin MHL Adapter for Samsung Galaxy S3 SIII i9300 i9308 i939". it should be $5 with $4 shipping
It arrived today and worked right out of the box with my note 2. no jiggling cables and no interference. Who know how it work in the long run but i doubt i will use this more then a few times so, its def worth my $10.
good luck

Here you go:
http://www.amazon.com/Skque-11-Pin-...r+for+Samsung+Galaxy+S3+SIII+i9300+i9308+i939

Thanks for the link!

Thanks! Ordered one! Also got the USB OTG cable for like 80 cents!

Will this charge my note 2 while using it?

it need to be plugged in to power supply to be usable so yes. theres a plug on the side of the adapter to connect it to the power

Mines finally came in the mail hooked it up and doesnt work idk if i got a reject plug it in and it charges but no picture on the tv
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium

wow!
Just got mine in the mail little over an hour ago. Took 1 week to arrive via USPS. Works fine, lags? or refreshes? every now and then. But for $30+ cheaper than the one I was going to order from Samsung, who cares. Netflix, Youtube, and browser work fine. Time Warner app and HBOGO don't support HDMI yet. Video games work great with minimal lag. NFS Most Wanted is AWSOME!!!, as good as any console. Next I'm getting the HDMI to VGA for my monitor, a bluetooth keyboard/touchpad combo and this: http://www.amazon.com/GOgroove-Sona...54979999&sr=8-2&keywords=tablet+charging+dock
Maybe I'll post pics or video once everything is set up. I think my lonely laptop is getting jealous.

How well does this one charge when you plug it into the stock charger?
I ordered the one on amazon labeled "Skiva MHL Micro USB to male HDMI cable (6.5 feet) for Samsung Galaxy S3 (SIII LTE i9300 i535) and Samsung Note 2 Smarphones (HD-X3)". It's complete junk. Even when I connected it to the stock charger it would still slowly lose charge with the screen on the lowest setting. I guess the way that cable is setup it limits it to 500ma. It also randomly disconnects every minute or so I'm going to send it back on Monday.
I'm tempted to just suck it up and just buy the OEM cable from Samsung.

Which Monoprice one did you get? They seem to have 2 of the MHL items (and I can't find their 11 to 5 pin adapter at all).
Their MHL Item Numbers are 8675 and 9291.
EDIT: There is a link to the 11 to 5 pin adapter on the page for one of the MHL items, but it takes you to the home page. The item ID embedded in the web link appears to be 9716. Searching for that Item ID doesn't work either.

You can only get the usb cable with the mains adapter as well at the moment (AFAIK).

Maybe a bit, but in all seriousness if someone was to say order a few hundred of these non existant cables from China and sell them on ebay or amazon themselves, they could probably make some good bank.

Found one on eBay
I just ordered one from eBay. I can't post links but I just searched eBay for Asus 36 pin cable. There was only one listing but multiple items available. Of course it's from China but I have hopes that it will do the trick when used with the wall wart for my (broken) TF700T.

The cable seems to work fine but it's mighty short compared to the one that came with the tablet. I'll keep it for a travel cable and use it with the wall wart that I have from my busted TF700. I also have a car adapter that worked with the TF700 so I'm hopeful it will also charge the new tablet when used with this shorty cable.

I've always ordered from ASUS. Got 2 cables and a wall wort. All worked fine.

Nexus 7 dock is back in Amazon

That's it really it available for 29.99
Nexus 7 2012 Docking Station https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009UQZPA0/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_GmbYtb1F5BVK26TM?ie=UTF8

Never mind they are gone now.... Wow that was fast they lasted 2 hours or so.... Now all you can find is the 80 dollar ones

I got mine direct from asus. I'm sure it was £27

I ordered just the pogo pins from ebay and they worked even better than the original dock does!

Hey guys.
Sorry to resurrect this thread but I'm looking for a nexus 7 2012 charging dock. The charging port is damaged again (I've already replaced it once) which is probably a mixture of kids not looking after things but also asus not using good parts.
When i looked for a dock on Amazon and ebay it seems that they aren't even selling second hand.
Any ideas where to buy? Someone in here mentioned just buying the pogo pins, what can be done with just these?

No one?

I believe this thread is dead. The thing about buying pogo pins is just that you have to solder it yourself. I for one am not good in the DIY soldering section so I'll pass on that. And also because the dock has somehow became a limited edition item, the pricing has increased to a very unreasonable state to me.

Thanks mate

A few are available from CEX (UK second hand store) is you search on their site webuy com

What are pogo pins?
im having the same problem with my Nexus 7 port it just naffed up with normal use and most of the docks use the usb to charge it so thats out of the window.
There is a charger on ebay that charges the tablet by just putting the tablet ontop of the charger but id rather see it working or atleast get some feedback from someone thats got one before buying one.
BTW:mines the wifi 2013 one,i think they call it the second edition cant find the box at the moment to check.

The dock for the new would be different to the old. The pogo pins are what touches the brass contact points on the device.
