It doesn't have to, you could just touch the points for 5 seconds. Making one is pretty easy. Otherwise I would suggest getting one here.
I got mine from mobiletechvideos.com and used it this weekend when i put CM7 on my cappy. Loved the jig and loving CM7 now.

His name here on xda is connexion2005 and like was said earlier he is a good guy. He will normally shop fast and you really can't beat his prices.

Build one yourself, it's more satisfying. Makes you feel like a big time electrical engineer until someone points out that it's an elementary school project
If anyone in the toronto area needs a usb jig i can make you one, just pm me, i can probably ship too.

Its more useful for people, who doesnt have 3 button combo or have lost it using one click Odin to flash to stock..
U dont need it just because someone said you should have one...

Right, and I think with all the Gingerbread ROMs now, it'll be even more of a failsafe for those without the button combo. My wife's captivate was bought later and doesn't have the combo, so I bought a jig just so I don't have to see her cry if she gets a bad flash.
pm'd - hopefully i can grab one off you this weekend

Plug in the usb and press and hold vol up and down and power. When the screen goes black let go of power while continuing to hold vol up and down. Should bring you back to download mode
What you have to do is run Odin with the usb connected to the phone, then you unplug and plug the usb back in, hold the vol - and + with the power button at the same time, once the screen goes black, release the power button, but keep holding the vol - and + buttons and Odin will recognize your phone. then the phone will be at the downloading screen
but really, you should go over to the Serendipity 7 thread, you will get more help from there and it's where this topic belongs.
did I say that already?
You're in the themes part of the forum not development or help.

No download mode or recovery. Just boots to that crashed screen. I tried making a jig but the phone would not boot from 300 or 301k ohm resistor. So I only have the att screen, crash screen and I also get the battery screen when I attempt to go into download mode. PLEASE HELP!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ye4QnZdur2g&feature=youtu.be
You're not hard bricked, hard brick, you'd have nothing at all. try to pull your battery for a couple min. Put it back in and try your jig again(I'll assume it has worked before)
Also, what were you doing that caused this?
What did you have installed for a ROM?
Also, I'm at work and they block youtube, so I can't see your video, can you upload a photo of your screen error

I'm sorry. My mistake was that I did not flash GB bootloader and I attempted to install a GB rom through CWM. My bad.
Download mode doesn't seem to work and I'm not positive my Jig works as I just got the resistors from radioshack and am touching the two pins but the phone does nothing. If I hold both volume buttons while plugging in usb it will have the circle icon and then go to the battery charging screen.
heres a screenshot from his youtube vid for reference.
is this what happens when you dont have the gingerbread bootloaders??

when just using your fingers to do quick jig, make sure your fingers arent touching both sides of the resistor! your finger creates a parallel path that alters the total resistance. its really complicated...... USE TAPE TO HOLD YOUR "jig"
Yahh that is the result of no GB bL and Gb ROM! I'm not mad just people screw stuff up and ask for help when its too late.
Nobody minds helping you if your phone isn't bricked yet, but to fix bricked phones over text isn't easy

I tried all the download mode methods. It appears that the actual download mode has the same "crash screen" issue then just resets.

Is your phone under warranty? If yes just smartflash your original rom and go to the service center.

I had no warranty. My biggest concern if is it possible to find the speaker here in Uruguay.

If u want it working just give a WILD try.... Remove the speaker and use a hair dryer and heat the speakers- (remember REMOVE THE SPEAKERS)
HEAT FOR SOME 10-30 SECONDS and let it cool for some 2-3mins let know if this worked

We had lost lots of developers like Nik, l0st.prophet because of their handset upgrade. These guys are willing to work on IncS development but unfortunately they don't have handset. I have seen many people willing to donate money and even spare their handset for development work.
Looking all these, I have got one idea.
Can someone take initiative and provide remote access of his PC and IncS for development work to these incredible developers?
I am not software guy or developer. So, I don't know path forward...somebody needs to explore.
but if it is possible, we will be back again in the era of development.
Just to clarify, we have not Lost Nik he is just waiting for new device to arrive .Thanks again to the amazing fjordell.

Sorry guys,
I am also not aware how to access boot screen remotely.
But, I have seen many technical support with remote access, so I just wanted you guys to think and respond if feasible.
If you feel not possible, we can drop this idea.
If the phone is in fastboot and hooked to the computer, you could give full access to your computer, so someone could use it as if he was at your home. But, I fail to see the greatness of this idea.
I have an IncS and I like-it, but I'm a realist. This phone as had better days, and, soon enough, it will be time to jump on newer and better technology.

The simplest way I think would be to buy other cheap charger from Ebay and use EU adapter head from it. I think it should fit.

Did it work?
Hey, did you try buying the other charger? Did the plug fit into the original Nexus 10 charger?
You can always get something like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/EU-2-Prong-...=Laptop_Adapters_Chargers&hash=item20c3edd0b3
Unfortunately I'm still waiting. The first one did not arrive so I applied for refund and received it. I ordered a new one now, so I'm waiting. Again.

God bless eBay lol
Im looking for the exact same thing. But i dont want a cable instead of the plug, then id rather use the flat-to-round plug converter i am now. I found out that theres a company in Taiwan called Well Shin that makes the exact plug. I have emailed them last night from my company email but havnt heard back yet.
I found on eBay something which might fit:
www DOT ebay DOT com/itm/US-EU-UK-AC-100V-220V-Plug-For-Apple-iBook-MacBook-Pro-iphone-ipod-Power-Adapter-/330751018142?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&var=&hash=item4d024c049e
(Sorry about the link, new user...)
It says it's for Apple products, but it looks pretty standard to me. Does anybody know if it'll work for our nexus?
EDIT: On second thought, the base does look bigger than what would fit into the nexus adaptor. It's a shame.

Strange, because they are not exactly the same charger. The copies are made from ETA-P10X while the Nexus 10 charger is the ETA-P11JBE. For me the Euro plug doesn't really fit, it gets stuck a bit down. Maybe it will go in all the way if I push hard but I don't want to do that.
