Brodit Passive Holder and Windshield Mount for the USA?
I'm looking for the Brodit passive holder for the JasJar and a compatible windshield mount with an adjustable goose-neck, I'm in the US. www.proclipusa.com doesn't appear to carry either, although I understand they are the US distributor.
Anyone, any ideas where I can get these?

I am looking for one in the USA as well. Proclip USA claims that they will have the Passive holder soon, but haven't gotten a definitive answer from them. None of the UK shops appear to be able to ship outside of the US, so I guess we are stuck waiting for Proclip USA to get them. Because the Jasjar is not really a USA device, I'm sure they are not in any hurry to get them in.

Heh heh, nice find!!

So how does this clip function.
Do you slide the Universal in, or do you kind of clip it in.
Is the power cord attached to the clip and you just slide it down in to the usb port, or is the wire just dangling all over the place when it's not connected.
I hate multi action holders and dont want something where i have to use both hands and a foot to get it in place.
I go in and out of my car many times a day, so it should be easy and without hassle.
I can live with the fact that i have to use a BT GPS, even though i love my BA holder having the GPS integrated, ooohh and what other choises are there out there.....none :?

Like you, bosjo, I've become accustomed to having my bluetooth GPS receiver powered via a wired link to my old M2000 active cradle. Having juice supplied to both M2000 and BT GPS meant I could never get lost.
I'm hoping in due course these Brodit M5000 cradles will also allow power to be supplied to BT GPS otherwise it's going to be a mess of wires in my car!

Damn it twonk - JUST ordered my clip and active holder and then read this post....stupid stupid me.
Anyway - was only £2 more.
The cheapest Brodit ProClip I could find was http://www.carkitonline.co.uk
£17.12 total (13.62 on its own) so pretty good!

CarKitOnline have got O2 Exec holders in and is actually cheaper than HandNav - you need to phone them because the phone is not listed on the website yet.

Coming up to three weeks now waiting for my active holder from mobilefun
Avoid like the black death in my personal opinion

Why dont you just call them and ask them what their problem is. Did they mention that the delivery time is less than that? I am sure ordering from Brodit direct would have been much better.

Yeah they do seem a bit unresponsive...they sent me out a screen protector and a cigarette adapter within a day but my leather case and brodit holder is still 'out of stock'. I phoned them and they gave me a date of 18th...so try phoning them and they will tell you when more stock is coming in.
IN the end i cancelled my brodit holder from them and brought it from handnav (who were supplying the clip anyway) for cheaper .
Still waiting for the leather case though..........
Unversaldoc - how much is the brodit holder direct from them? Surely they will charge more!!

They keep saying stock is arriving, that date comes and no stock, same again this morning, think i was told new stock was coming on 16th Dec and another lot coming 19th Dec so i should definitely have it before the 21st.
Best bit is you pay postage for 2-3 day delivery muuuhaaahaaha
Trouble is the wifes bought me it on her plastic as a stocking filler so i dont want to bug her for her card again, you know how they growl

Hi All,
I sell the Brodit kits and know that Brodit had a severe quality control issue with the charging leads on the active charging cradles, which meant they had to go back to the drawing board and get new leads shipped in from their supplier, hence long delays.
I still have stocks of the all Xda Brodit ranges inc. the Exec in stock if anyone is interested. Please PM me.
Seems a shame that no one told you all of the delay though.

@Cut,
Costs around £60 for the holder and the pro-clip not including delivery costs. I agree, they are expensive compared to the other resellers but they are dependable and have fantastic support. Personally, i wouldn't mind paying the extra £10 just for the quality of support and feedback

Price of BA with broken screen?

I have a Blue Angel about 1 and a half years old but the screen broke.
I want to sell it on ebay.
What can I ask for it?
It has 2 original (Qtek) batteries, desktop cradle, car holder, usb cable (for charging) and 3 new original (Qtek) stylus.

Lio,
The replacement screen costs currently around €250 in Holland and I didn't find much cheaper repairs. There are Qtek 9090 going on sale everywhere at €300 or more.
Check for yourself what you could be asking.
Let me know what you think.

Anybody interested? I put it up today on ebay:

To be honest, I dont have a clue to which price I should ask. Therefore I put it on ebay and the highest bideer gets it. The bidding starts at €20,00.

VERY hard to find part

I'm looking for a working cradle for my Toshiba e800 pda. Several websites "claim" to have them, but when you actually go to order, they email back saying they're out of stock. Does anyone have one, know someone who has one, or know a website that REALLY has one? Under $50 would be nice.

I had one of these years ago. Te cradle has an LED light at the bottom that illuminates it in blue.
Anyway, from the age of the device mught be easier / cheaper to pickup a complete unit with cradle on eBay. Failing that, ring Toshiba?
regards,
M.S

Cradle
Called Trashiba yesterday, they don't sell pda accessories anymore from what they told me. I can only get one from one of their authorized distributors apparently, and one doesn't sell them and the other is out of stock. I can't afford a whole device as I can barely afford the $50 as it is. Gargh.

Accessory list - Elfin - Indian Members only!!!

Hi all,
I have been quite impressed and jealous too to know what all accessories ppl use for Elfin. But one bad thing is, in india we do not know where to get those or whether it is available. So, I have started this thread.
All indian members, owning a Elfin, flow ur accessory list and also the price and from whr u hv bought it. This will enable our fellow indian members and me who doesnt know what and where accessories are avail.
Let me start my accessory list(nothing much, only one i own)
1. Sony BT Handsfree - Bought from eBay.in for 3200/-
Flow ur list.

38 views and in tht no indian members????
Strange!!!!!!

I have also tried to get this..but no where it is available.

Accessories
I have an HTC Touch P3450 Elfin for the past 14 months and recently I purchased some accessories from ebay.in . All you need to do is search for HTC on ebay and you'll get mamny products. I bought the following
(a) My hands free kit had become unresponsive, so I bought a HTC HS U110 -3.5mm AUDIO ADAPTER CABLE WITH EARPHONE for Rs 475.00. Its cool.... its actually a micro USB to 3.5mm Adaptor, so you can use ANY headphone available in the market. You can also attend calls while listening to your music!! (Seller - trendy_bazer)
(b) I got a nice leather case with racheted holster for Rs 790.00. Search for Case Mate Case Holster Combo - Black for HTC Touch on ebay. Its nice. The seeler also sent a Protective Screen Guard with it (which itself costs about Rs 130 on ebay). How nice of him. (Seller - pareshwins)
(c) CAR CHARGER FOR HTC TOUCH for Rs 199.00. Normally you get this kind of stuff for 800 - 1000 in Mumbai. (Seller - trendy_bazer)
(d) Universal Car Mount Holder with photo frame for Rs 190.00. This gets fixed on my car windshiled and can hold the phone (with or without the Case Mate Case) securely. (Seller - trendy_bazer)
But GUYS.... I have badly scratched my screen and I desperately need a new one. Is that thing called a digitizer? Where can I get one? I saw the price of a digitizer somewhere as $10.70.... which means it should be available for about Rs 500? Can it be changed by a non geek like me? Someone was asking for a white casing. Say what.... I think a while casing will also look good. Anyone any idea where to knock doors?
By the way, thnks to this forum, I have Onyx WM6.5 ROM loaded on my (originally WM6.0) phone and lots of cool apps. Thanks xda-developers.

^^gr8 accessory list m8..I am yet to get all these..will be needing a pouch, car charger and mount holder..will right away move to ebay and look for it.
Congrats on ur WM6.5..can u also list the cool apps u hv installed in ur elfin?

^^ Well I have the Onyx 5 Final WM6.5 ROM like you and other apps like Email Scheduler, WorldMate Live, WMM Notes, Auto Call Record, CHome Editor, OneNote Mobile and Powerpoint Mobile, Kevtris2 (Game), S2P MediaPlayer, Bing Search, Currency Convertor, Skype, Facebook, Windows Live and Messenger..... And ah yes, I recently installed the Titanium Shadow Neo skin and added Taskanium, CComm and CMultiClock to it.
One accessory I forgot earlier. I use a Jabra BT125 which I bought for some Rs 1400 from The Mobile Store. Works like a song with my Elfin.

^^most of the appz u hv seems to be utilities..anyways..gud coll.
One more accessory in my list..
Kingston 8GB MicroSDHC Class 4 from eBay

I buy most of my accessories from ebay.com. There are many chinese sellers who sell stuff for cheap. Many ship to india too
I got a Motorala S9 Bluetooth Headset for $30. 8Gb SDHC card for $35, 10 Protective Screen Guard for $1. Bluetooth GPS receiver for $40

is the chinese sellers selling the original goods or fake ones???

Most chinese sell OEM stuff. Also look for their rating and uy from trusted sellers. I have not had a problem with any of my accessories i have brought till now. I have been using it for past 6 months

m8..can u share the stuffs u hv bought frm them and also the sellers name..so we can trust them since u r satisfied..

I have some questions about buying from foreign sellers on ebay. How do you pay them? Is payment directly through credit card or only after transfering funds to your PayPal account? How do you find out the shipping cost to India? Will it not be the case that the shipping cost is sometimes more than the value of the item itself? What about govt imposed import duties, VAT etc? All sellers say on their pages that payment of these taxes is the responsibility of the buyer. So do we pay this or just keep quiet?
I desperately need a digitizer for my Elf. I have royally scratched the original one. And Hong Kong sellers on ebay seem to be the only answer. Local HTC service stations quote a price of Rs 5000 for just changing the digitizer.

whoa..whoa..hw many queries...computernerd come to our rescue!!!

Mostly I search for sellers who have a good rating. Also While bidding i always keep in mind shipping costs and approx rate in india. I have mostly found shipping costs to be geniune, not very high
Some items I have brought the are
Item :Scratch Gaurd
Qty : 10 Pieces
Rate : $0.99
Seller : imode_technology_hit
Item : Motorola S9 Bluetooth Stereo Headset Headphone Earphone
Rate : $31
Seller : king-shiny
Shipping : Free
Item : Bluetooth GPS Receiver For Laptop PDA Mobile Phone
Rate : $41
Seller : king-shiny
Shipping : Free
Item : #S8T1 8GB SANDISK MICRO SD HC 8G FIT NOKIA N95 N76 E90
Rate : $ 22
Seller : Donot Remember
Shipping $ 12
There have been instances about 10% when I have not received items from the sellers, but i have been fortunate that the ebay dispute has been resolved in my favor and the money has been refunded to my account
Regarding the payment, I use PayPal. I have added my Indian credit card into PayPal.
Till now i have not paid any Indian taxes. MOst of my purchases have been lesser that $100

Thanks, computernerd. That answers most of my queries. I think I will get that digitizer soon. Reason why I was asking about taxes is that I am eyeing a camera lens which is cheaper by Rs 12,000 on ebay at singapore than on ebay.in

gr8 goin..gr8 xplanation..keep it flowin

the digitiser can be changed urself if ur game for taking apart ur phone. I just got my digitiser changed last week i bought it from hira panna in mumbai and fit it myself, lots of instructions available on the net. Shopping from ebay us or uk is very easy all you need is a pay pal account. most accessories from china are indeed knock offs, but they work well for the prices they charge.

How much did the Digitizer cost at Heera Panna? Does it come with tools required to change it? Are Front and Back Covers etc (in different colours)also available there?

Multimedia dock for the 10.1 == $5

For those that want a dock, or just the piece that pops into the front of the HDMI dock (for the GT7). Literally sold my GT10 yesterday; I'd buy one right now just for the plastic piece.
http://www.hhgregg.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1-multimedia-desktop-dock/item/D1B1BEGXAR
Probably my last post in this forum by the way. It's been a fun year (*found my receipt dated 7/30/11). Got the nexus 7 and I honestly can't imagine turning back. The GT10 is a great tablet and will be for some time; I just can't spend all of my time flashing ROMs on 2 devices! Anyways, enjoy your tablets, especially now that you'll have working cameras within a few days!

thanks for the link. price is very good.

is this site legit? 4.95 seems almost too good...

LOOOL. HHgreg is legit. xD :good:

my local store had two of them. bought them both. still need one more. the guys at the counter were annoyed that they had no idea of the price. so i feel kinda lucky they were there.
the downside... there is no charger. so they expect me to use the short three foot cord that came with the tab. that thing barely reaches from the plug straight up on a table.

anyone know the difference between the multimedia Desktop Dock in the OP with (Model: D1B1BEGXAR)) versus the this one (Model: EDD-D1B1BEGSTA) sold on amazon. They both seem to be for Samsung galaxy tab 10.1 original. I remember the Original galaxy 10.1 was thicker before the US version of the 10.1 came out. no way of telling if this is the case here.
I missed out on this awesome deal. No longer available in my area nor am I able to order online and ship to Washington DC.seems to be sold out or in-store only if available.
Thanks,

Nice deal but how about shipping to germany... ?

anyone know if i can get this one to africa ?

This is great, its only $3.82 now w/o shipping! I bought the media adapter from the original tab 7, which had hdmi, was just proping up the tab 10.1 with a piece of wood behind it, now I can buy this and just use the plastic base piece keyboard is also on sale 17.47, in case any one is interested

I realy want to order one toobecause in europe they are about at least 20-30 €..
Sent from my GT-P7500 using XDA Premium HD app

just picked mine up in store, apparently they dont ship the dock, you have to do in store pickup. the guy at the store told me it was being discontinued, and I got 1 of the only 2 they had. I also picked up the SD adapter for the tab(official samsumg adapter) for $8.37. I had previously bought a cheap chinese 2 in 1 usb/sdcard adapter, its very ****ty and you have to hold it an exact angle, and not move the device, otherwise you a disconnect...

To bad they dont ship to Canada I'd pick it up then.

Its out of stock. It will let you put it in the cart, but when you go to checkout during the entering of the billing/shipping address it then says its out of stock and must be removed from the basket. Otherwise its a good deal.
If you're a Amazon Prime member its $9.72 shipped for the EDD-D1B1BEGXAR model.

Thank you, really cheap prices a little worried
