I've been on a search for months to get a Nexus 10 running permanently in my car without needing to take it back home to charge. I've bought tons of chargers and even invested in a $20 pogo cable but none of them could get a positive amps. I run Google Maps, Spotify and Bluetooth tethering and it would drain -300mA to -400mA, after about 5 days I'd have recharge it at home.
Tonight I stumbled on an accessories shop in Shum Shui Po, Hong Kong that sold a 2A car charger with a funny attachment. Turns out the USB extender has the data pins shorted. Now my N10 is charging at +700 to +900mA. Pogo cable is pulling all the amps as it can!
Here's a pic. Hope this helps people in their search. The USB dongle thingy on the bottom right has the data pins shorted!

I think this is the magic bullet. I don't think you need the charger itself as long as it says it does 2.1A: http://www.amazon.com/Charging-Charger-Adapter-Apple-iPad2/dp/B0042LF23I
Thanks for the information, so you can confirm that the "technology" (I quote this because I think this is just a resistor or a wire between data pin) is the same for Apple devices and the Nexus 10 ?
I found item SKU: 123582 in dealextreme and since I have an order to do on dx, I think I will order a few of them also (that must work also with my galaxy S3 I think ...)
Edit: more reading of the comment and apparently it doesn't work with samsung device, another device seem to work with samsung but it's sold out and when sold out on dx, it never appear again ... keep searching ...
I just ordered this two usb ports 3.1A (2.1A+1A) car charger It works great and only costs $3.99.
But even if you have a 2.1A charger, your cable has to support hi-amp charging as well.
Well, I search for a dual usb car charger which has the hi-amp modification for android (data pin shorten if I read correctly the forum) but not the modification for apple. Because I don't know why manufacturer propose 1 product with one port for android and one for apple, this is stupid because most of users don't have apple AND android devices. I think manufacturers should propose 1 product with 2 ports for android and another product with 2 ports for apple. (I can understand that proposing only one device doing the two interface is most interesting from a financial point of view but ...).
For example I have an android and an android tablet, two port usb charger are fine because for example I can have a 1A port for my phone and a 2A port for my tablet and charge the two at the same time. But if I have 1 port "apple" and 1 "android", I can charge the two the same time but 1 will take only 500 mA on the apple port:crying:
If you know such a product, I will continue searching and if I find I will post it ...
Edit: think I found it : http://www.amazon.com/Mediabridge-Output-Charger-Samsung-Galaxy/dp/B00AAHRZI8/ but only on amazon.com, I'm from belgium and I can only order on amazon.co.uk or amazon.fr, keep searching ...
With the battery kept constantly full at all times it willend up killing the cells over time and in a couple years you will have greatly diminished charge capacity. Better to take it in over night every 5 days IMO.
Update: Found a link that ships worldwide, it looks like exactly the same product

I discharge/charge my iPads like this and the battery goes to crap after just 1-2 years. IMO all the recent batteries in tablets and cellphones don't last more than 24 months before the charge just goes to crap. My Nexus 7 is already barely able to hold a charge for just 4-5 hours of use.
That being said, I have an original 3G iPad that's going really strong. Surprising for a 1st gen product.

DELL MINI5 尾插转接成 MicroUSB母口
Seems to be ¥58 RMB + ¥12/25 shipping, which is approx
$10.99 - 13.00 each.
Taobao is similar to amazon as a web store, it doesnt ship outside china though.
It's a 30 pin dock connector on one end and a mini usb port on the other end, so you can use any old mini usb cable on it. (like most phones) It's MINI usb and not MICRO as used on very new phones.
Seems to use the same connector head as the otg cable one, might be the same manufacturer of the heads.
Dell should have made official ones themselves, the stock cable is redicilious as it's essentially propriatary. This is most true for being on the road when you need to charge, you need both the cable and a charger with an actual port. Buying a charger with a 30 pin dock connector built in means that it's tied to the s5/7. With this you can use and old microUSB charger.
Quick facts:
The Streak does NOT use the PDMI connector standard. It merely uses the same head and SOME of the same pinouts. There are no devices out that use standardized PDMI. Dell internally refers to it as the '30 pin dock connector'
This should work on the s5 and s7 as they use the same dock connector, wont work on the s10 as it uses a different 40 pin connector.
Nice idea but to my mind six months too late, Streak leads are now widely available and cheap to buy. I don't see their being enough of a market for this new adaptor for it to sell.
There's enough of a market in china to make these, as that's where these are being sold. The streak is only half a year old or so in china.
It IS late everywhere else though, they could have made them much earlier and destined for export. There's plenty of other random accessories like cases that have done this, and normal dock cables.
Regardless i'd like one myself, my streak will still be usable for quite a while. It's not gonna magically stop working or anything any time soon.

Can you post a pic of yours, or possibly what a pin out might be.
I would buy at least one of these if there were some way to get the seller to ship to the US...
What we really need is a 30-pin (pdmi?) connector to hdmi.
I'm gonna (hopefully) use my ds5 for another year before I change to one that has proper hdmi out.
Sidenote, I just learn about QuickPic yesterday ... and it makes my ds5 all that much more usable!
it's sad that the connector is specialized for DS5. Hope my original usb cable won't break..
I actually just picked up a DS5 charge/sync cable on ebay from a US seller cheap ($6.95/ free ship) for anyone in the states that's interested. Descent quality, nowhere near factory quality, but what I expected for the money. Great as a backup charger.

I'm thinking of getting a Nexus 7 to replace my in dash OG Samsung Galaxy Tab 7. This means I'll need a car charger that outputs enough juice.
In my tablet experience, HTC Flyer/Asus Transformer/HTC Evo View/OG Galaxy Tab, only the OEM chargers put out enough juice to keep it charging under load.
So, what are the requirements, and has anyone found a suitable car charger that should meet those while wifi/Bluetooth/GPS are active?

With shipping, it was a little pricey at 20.00 but if it performs as advertised I'll be happy.
That charger should be fine, but in general believe no specs you see on EBay. A lot of cheap (this one is not) chargers made in China just flat lie. Listed as 5V 2amp - well yes, just not at the same time. You can have 5 volts or two amps, just not at the same time. Even a good brand name does not help you - there are a lot of fakes. Look at the construction, and run some simple tests if it matters.

I also used an inverter, but my alternator kept failing...Not sure if there is a connection...But I don't think its the most efficient way to utilize the 12volts DC, converting it into AC and then the AC power cord converts the juice back into DC. Seems like a waste.

When this same question is asked for most 2amp devices lately the answer has been this ^ Although it's only 950mA
Especially for those wanting to use their phone's in the car with GPS turn by turn navigation, streaming and bluetooth enabled.
The Genuine Original Motorola Rapid Rate Charger is the only one that has really worked.
http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Vehi...&keywords=original+motorola+car+quick+charger
YMMV, Now to find the vendor that sells the real thing..
I've just ordered one from Amzon, is a dual usb port one, 2.1 amps on 1 port, 1amp on the other, gets good reviews saying that it charges power hungry devices quickly and only a couple of quid!! http://www.amazon.co.uk/TRIXES-Char...VSRK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1342262522&sr=8-2
I needed a few more chargers for my N7, one for work and one for the GF's house. Standard phone chargers work, but it basically trickle charges it and takes forever.
I remembered that when I had a HP Touchpad that they were 2 amp chargers, and I found these:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007WO6JAC/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
Cheap and verified working perfectly. Just wanted to share,
Figured there's be some interest in these. I looked for days for a charger that would properly charge my N7.

That is the phone version instead of the tablet version. It's pretty much the same except it's smaller and has 1A output instead of 2A.

I received my HP Touchpad charger and 6' Data cables the other day. It appears the Touchpad charger is a genuine Touchpad charger, as indicated by the branding on the side.
I also bought a 3 pack of 6' USB Data/Charger cables from an Ebay seller, and they are working very well so far. They cahrge well, and when attached to my PC, it gets recognized with no problems.
I did a comparative test of charging my nexus with Nexus and Touchpad charger.
My nexus: 16GB JB 4.1.1 Stock
Original Nexus Charger and Data Cable:
Battery drained to 0%...
13% in 30 minutes
29% in 1 hour
62% in 2 hours
100% in 3 hours 30 minutes
HP Touchpad Charger and Third Party 6' Data Cable:
Battery drained to 0%...
17% in 30 minutes
34% in 1 hour
68% in 2 hours
100% in 3 hours 8 minutes
The Touchpad charger charged the Nexus battery twenty minutes faster than the Nexus charger. Though, that may not be necessarily a good thing. After the Touchpad fully charged my unit, I left it charging for 4 hours. The Nexus didn't feel warm to the touch while charging, so I doubt it's giving the battery too fast or too much of a charge.
I also streamed a Netflix movie while the nexus was plugged with the HP Touchpad Charger, and after one hour of streaming the battery was still at 100%.
Here are the links to the Ebay sellers I purchased from:
HP Touchpad Charger [EBAY] $3.99 shiping included
3 Pack Lot 6FT Data Sync Charger Cable [EBAY] $5.03 shipping included

Plus or minus 20 mins isn't really much different from the stock 2 amp charger. There are many variables, room temperature differences for example. I like the way the HP charger looks!

Hey, i'm happy with my N5X battery, but i'm gonna need a power bank for my travels.
So can you recommend me one. Is there any powerbank that has type C USB port??
There still aren't many USB Type C devices out there, your best bet is still probably a power bank with plain old USB type A ports, so you can charge your phone (with a type A -> type C cable) and other things as well. I just got this one because it is integrated with an AC charger, so it's one less thing to carry: http://plugable.com/products/pb-wa5k. It quick-charges the N5X.
Here are a few power banks with a Type-C output of 3A. So it will fast charge your Nexus 5X.

that one won't rapidly charge USB-C devices, both due to its total output and due to its lacking USB-C port

If you ever need to deal with them, (Anker) you won't be disappointed. I thought I had received a bad charger from them (not 100% sure though), and they sent out a replacement as we spoke on the phone no questions asked. Then emailed me a prepaid shipping label to return the old one. Now that's great customer service.
I own the Anker USB C power bank, as well as several others of their accessories. Truly top quality stuff, plus their customer service is exceptional.
Look at the powerbanks of anker mabye they van het you hooked
Hey I had a quick question about the GMYLE power bank . Is the link that you provided the same thing as the one I found on Amazon but cheaper.I can't link it sorry but you have to search GMYLE on Amazon, it is the 10 dollar one . Also will this one work for the nexus 5x and say "rapidly charging". Thanks
Every power bank which gives at least 2,5 A should allow fast charging.

If not, a 5V 2.4A power bank still does a decent job. My Anker Battery bank does 15% to 80% in one hour. Stock wall charger gets to 90% in the same time.

Accessories are always a wild card. Did we really just drop the 45W charging feature on the Note 20/ Ultra? Specs only listing the 25W. I have the official 45W accessory and other chargers that support the proper profiles for the PPS to work. Seems like wasted tech at this point.
Or is there something I'm missing?
Keep it for when it is reintroduced next year. If the rumors prove right we might have to purchase chargers separately anyway (or make do with old ones)

and this one on order https://www.kickstarter.com/project...t-100w-gan-charger/posts/2909520?ref=activity
That HyperJuice looks cool, but from the comments, it looks like people are having random issues with the charger and actually getting the charger..... I have been happy with Anker chargers anyway. I already have their newer PD car charger like 38 or 42 watts or what ever it is. I have not upgraded my wall chargers from Anker yet..... I am waiting for a 6 port USB C PD charger, but I doubt that will come out for a while because it would need to be over 100 watts.
samsung really watered down the note this year 45w charging is just one of the compromises on this device unfortunately.
not that there was a huge difference in 25 and 45 w charging times but thats not the point. The Note is supposed to be the workhorse the flagship so they should not be removing features.

I'm wondering is that a software flip they can make to enable it. I bought one for our two N10+ and when I need a lot of charge in a pinch, it delivers. I have it in the kitchen as central location. Forgot to charge it at night, getting ready in the morning, running down to 5%...set it for 15-20 minutes and we're good.
I don't know what crawled up Samsungs back side but it seems like we're being prepped for loss of features as a bonus for premium prices.
Headphone jack
FM Antenna
45watt charging
smaller storage
smaller battery
wired earphones
and soon to be charging brick.
Personally I'd like them to ditch the curved edges.

I don't know what crawled up Samsungs back side but it seems like we're being prepped for loss of features as a bonus for premium prices.
Headphone jack
FM Antenna
45watt charging
smaller storage
smaller battery
wired earphones
and soon to be charging brick.
Personally I'd like them to ditch the curved edges.

Those were so much fun at the bar. Nothing like being able to turn off tennis and put on baseball without having to ask, LOL.

That HyperJuice looks cool, but from the comments, it looks like people are having random issues with the charger and actually getting the charger..... I have been happy with Anker chargers anyway. I already have their newer PD car charger like 38 or 42 watts or what ever it is. I have not upgraded my wall chargers from Anker yet..... I am waiting for a 6 port USB C PD charger, but I doubt that will come out for a while because it would need to be over 100 watts.

Just remember. When you're dealing with happy people, they tend not to post about it. When you're dealing with upset people, they tend to scream from the rooftops in our heard the loudest. Same with posting online...
I've had mine for a while now, and no issues at all with the hyperjuice. some of the edges were little sharper than I liked, I simply sanded them down and no issues.
The only real complaint I had was, it didn't support the full Gambit of USB PD profiles. So no PPS like Samsung was touting. Now that other one by CIO does support PPS and all the other standards. That one is really exciting to me

[emoji817] 100% I've been preaching and asking for the ir port to be brought back. I stuck with my note 4 through many generations until I killed it and couldn't get parts anymore for it.
@rosedog
Has to have the proper chipset #1
And also has to have compatible battery chemistry. The thicker charging leads on the boards, thermal sensors. Etc. Could be there. Guess we will find out soon enough with teardowns.
i bought a used alcatel 7, it has IR.
i carry it when i go travel, to change hotel tv input so i can stream my video.
