Hi
I'm trying to obtain 100pcs of mains supply for the XDA and also 100pcs of the DC jack. I am happy with either new or used+tested.
Also - does anyone please know if a copy/3rd-party DC jack is available from anywhere? It must be 100% compatible.
Any information/tips/ideas would be gratefully received!
I'll buy from any legitimate company WORLDWIDE - location not an issue.
I will also buy from individuals with suitable refs.
Thankyou in advance for your help
Any questions - please PM me - I have refs, I am real!
Thanks - Mobilez
p.s. I have in stock if anyone requires (all genuine o2 branded):
XDA I USB Cradle - XDA I Serial Cradle
Stereo Headset - Car charger
USB Sync Cable - XDA I EXTENDED Battery
XDA I carry case - XDA I Executive Case
No styluses, No chargers, No DC Jacks

Hello all,
I intend to update to an iMate soon (as in Australia, I've found, they're considerably cheaper than the XDA II for some reason), but I don't want to shell out my hard-earned dollars for accessories I don't need.
I have an additional AC power adaptor / charger for the XDA I which is rated at output +5V @ 1A.
Is this adaptor (it's an original) the same as the XDA II adaptor?
Same goes for the car charger too - I have an original which I'd like to keep (since I'll get bugger-all resale) - is it identical to the XDA II car charger?
Thanks in advance.
Codenix.
I use my xda1 charger for both xda1 and xda2.
XDA Power Adaptors
G'day Codenix
Sure! The XDA and XDAII (and iPAQ) chargers are all the same connector and 5VDC / 1.5A and higher..
So yes - they're all interchangeable based on the specs of each.
P.S. If you're looking to upgrade to an iMate go to
http://www.c1au.com/imate.html
(iMate PDAs for $1299).
Cheers!

is the xda 2 car charger same as the xda 2s one just bought xda 2s of ebay and sold my xda 2 but woundering if i can use the car charger for it ?
There's a little calibration pin on the blue angel, you can use the xdaII cable but you'll need to file/scrape a bit off the cable's connector
You can also use some force to get it in but that is not advisable
The connectors are the same except for the $%^& gap in newer cables
thanks for your help m8
All I did when I got my iMate XDA2 car charger was swap the dongles on the end.
Hi, I have a TMobile MDA Pro and i have purchased an in car charger so that I can use it with TomTom satnav unit, slight problem, unit does not charge when in the car. Bizarre, as when I use the standard USB Charge & Sync cable with PC happily syncs and charges with no issues. Anyone any ideas, does there have to be a specific setting on the unit to enable it to accept charge via the cigarette socket in car?
Many thanks
I found that to charge the universal, pins 4 and 5 in the mini USB plug need to get joined together - by default pin 5 is not connected to anything (well, wasn't in the cable I had). I've made that modification, and am powering a couple of devices of of a 2 port hub in the car.
Cheers,
Steve
Hi, sounds like a problem I am having and meaning to ask about.
I've got a USB cigy lighter adapter and tried plugging in the sync lead to provide power when it's in the car. So if I have my Exec in standby the charge light will come on (I think it charges sitting on the today screen, but not to sure) but as soon as I fire up tomtom the charging light goes off....
Does this sound like your problem, or are you not charging at all?
I'm interested in finding out what I need to charge the Exec while it's running tomtom? Anyone have any ideas?
Cheers
Matt
I'm pretty certain that I didn't get a charge light at all with my cable until I modified it, then it works, as expected, including in TomTom.
To confirm what I've got is:
- A Ciggy to USB socket adapter
- A two port hub plugged into the adapter
- Modified cable into the hub (along with an unmodified cable connected to my BT-77 GPS unit).
Plugging the cable (prior to modification) directly into the adapter, rather than the hub, didn't work either. The Brodit all-in-one adapter/cable worked fine (and I still have it intact, but not in use), but if memory serve, pins 4 & 5 appear to be connected. I used a multi-meter to try and find out why that one worked, and my combination didn't.
All of this stuff is wired in behind the centre console, so I've not got any unsightly wires, or anything.
Cheers,
Steve.
I think you need a car charger that can output 1000mA to charge the Universal. Same requirement also for an AC charger. 1000mA is what's important. Cheers
Hi, We have had quite a few customers with this issue, we advised and they have opted for the brodit active mounts which have the inbuilt cig chargers and it has cured the problem, or for the neater solution they went for the Molex hardwired versions to stash the cables behind the dash area,
The codes are: 968649 for the cig charger version or 971649 for the Molex hardwired version, http://www.dsldevelopments.com/brodit/holder/T-Mobile+MDA Pro-Brodit-Holder.asp
Hope that helps, drop me a line if you need any advice,
Thanks again

Found 1A 5V car adapter
this is the only place I found off ebay that has a 1A car adapter
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CAR-CIGAR-CIG...4QQihZ006QQcategoryZ15329QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
It works fine on my MDA Pro, just need to plug it in while it is off for it to start charging.. if turned on, then pluged in, then it won't start charging.
I even have an 800mA adapter, but that doesn't help the MDA Pro, it needs more power!

Hi there Bryson
The items you quoted are actually the charger and the holder for the PDA. I also notice from the link you provided that there are 2 cig chargers (items codes 942625 and 942650). Can I know what are the differences between these 2 models and would either of this chargers charge the Universal while it is running a navigation software such as TomTom or Garmin Que?
Also, do you ship to Singapore?
Hey, I am hoping someone can help me find the correct car charger adapter for my Galaxy note. I have tried a few and struggled.
I am looking for an adapter similar to this ... http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B002C3AFHG
The problem is that it doesnt output correct (5v, 1mAmp ... read comment http://www.amazon.co.uk/review/R2LOQFBMC3I746/ref=cm_cr_pr_viewpnt#R2LOQFBMC3I746) ... as a result, the charge is very slow and not useful for using device as a sat nav.
Is there anyone who has bought such an adapter that charges well?
Thanks.:cyclops:
Yes. The stock SAMSUNG car charger charges at a rate sufficient to increase the charge in the battery while using a nav device.
A search in this forum will find an older thread that discussed this. On member tested many car chargers and discovered that the SAMSUNG was the only one he found that performed properly.
Based on that review, I purchased the SAMSUNG charger on either ebay or amazon (don't remember) for a very good price. I also saved a great deal of money by not purchasing a bunch of cheapies that didn't work! I have been very pleased with my purchase.

I bought one on dealxtreme, was about 4 dollar and it works perfect.
Thanks so much for the information - I now know there is something out there, but no links I cant confidently find these chargers you guys speak of...
any links? Thanks

I have the same problem I have bougth a couple of cheap ones off ebay, but the battery still drains during Sat Nav use.
Looks like I may have to shell out for a more expensive one........
It doesnt seem an uncommon problem, but dame, it so difficult to find help. I have searched high and low for the above links. The problem is a real one, esp as I am looking for an adapter to plug to an exisiting cable...
I got the stock Car Dock and love it. Use it to play music via bluetooth and nav and its charges just fine.

It isn't difficult to find help. It IS difficult to want to help someone too lazy to do a simple search!
Go to amazon and search for "original car charger for Galaxy Note". I bought the one from Frontier Telecom LLC.
You'll have to do the rest yourself. I'm not going to buy it for you.

You can use any standard usb charger and get the correct current with a modified USB cable.
There is a thread in the forum tells you how to modify it. Basically, shorten the pin 3 and 4 (data differential pair) of the USB connector, and you will smile.

I'm using a cheapo 1amp USB car charger and a standard micro usb cable. Works well with my Note.
Currently I'm using a 2100mah output car charger with 2 in 1 (apple + micro usb) charging head to charge my notes. It can charge and ipad with no problem.
Fast charging from the 2.1A output
Difference betweeb 1a and 2
Hi guys,
My cheap car charger I bought from ebay do not charge my note, when I use the navigation.
1) How do I check whether they are 0.5a or 1a. It is not written on the charger and not in the description on ebay. How do I mesure that, with an android software?
2) Is there a difference between using a 1a and 2a car charger or is this limited to 1a anyway?
thanks
I have purchased this very recently and looks like it is doing a good job. My phone gets charged perfectly during my driving
http://www.capdase.com/en/product5.php?cid=9&bid=1&mid=6&pid=6775
I also purchased this to help me hold the Note when i use Navigation
http://www.capdase.com/en/product5.php?cid=1&bid=27&mid=865&pid=11509
Interesting.
This is what I just bought on dealextreme.com:
http://dx.com/p/car-cigarette-power...harger-for-ipad-iphone-white-dc-12-24v-104826
Will see if 2.1A will charge it faster... At least I will have the option between 1A and 2.1A
Samsung stock charger is the best. Charges my Note at the same rate as the travel charger

That's what I posted in the first response to the OP a month ago. I only bought this one car charger for $19 including free overnight shipping.
I am amazed when I read of people buying several of the cheapies that almost never work as well as the OEM charger, because they think $19 is too much to pay for a charger. They spend at least that much on multiple chargers plus MULTIPLE SHIPPING and still don't have a charger that works well!
Just buy the OEM. You'll save money and have a charger that works well when using Sat Nav.

3a charger + charge adapater
If you just want it easy and dont mind the cost, get the sumsang charger - Im just not sure if it shows up as "AC charging" or the slower "USB charging" and if it will actually charge up with full brightness on, GPS, wifi, bluetooth all at once... I do use all those at once.
But if your ok with a bit of fiddling around, get a 12v step down to 5v 3amp power module and use it with a dedicated ic chip charger cable - it will work with all androids and even the misus iphone and will always give fast AC mode charging with more amps than most phones need. or use it to power 2-3 devices.
$5 for the power adatper
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Car-Led-Dis...337?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item256f93f0b1
$2 for the charging cable (example)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/10-in1-mult...903429?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3cc9932cc5
$1 for a cigarette connector, only to use the cigarette connector body.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-Car-Cig...er_MP3_Player_Accessories&hash=item2ec08a050d
The important part is getting a charger cable with the inbuilt IC chip to tell the gnote to go into AC charging mode, otherwise this solution has been working great for years.
Hey guys!
I just bought my xperia z3c last week and it came with a 0.85A charger. However unfortunately, i connected the charger to a faulty power socket and it ruined my charger. So i went and bought a new charger with a charging output of 1A. However when i used the new charger and used the phone, I noticed that the touch screen did not function properly. So should i get a charger with less amp output? Please help

Hi there,
The Amp does not affect the phone even if you have 3A adapter it will not affect the phone
the phone will pull the Amps as it need to charge
however if the Voltage is different than 5V maybe that what causing the issue
my Z3 compact adapter came with 5V 1.5A
Also there is Quick Charger 2.0 (5V 2A / 9V 2A / 12V 1.5A )
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OVD3FEU/
but the Quick charger need to be certified
hope that help
Thanks alot man

If it's a proper USB charger it should be putting out 5v but there are many chargers that do output 5V but are electrically noisy and this causes interference that stops the touch screen from working. I had a OEM Blackberry one that stopped iphone and HP pre/touchpad screens from working.
Ken @ http://www.righto.com/2012/10/a-dozen-usb-chargers-in-lab-apple-is.html did a nice review of some common ones and showed the difference in the quality of the power they provided.
If you have more then one phone, or a phone and tablet that you need to charge at the same time I have had good luck with Anker's family sized chargers.
Thanks for the links man
