Thank you in advance!

I was able to unmount the Samsung SGSII Cardock!!
As we can see, there is a resistor that enables the Cardock mode. Also, there is no connection of line 3 (D+) and 2 (D-) to usb female plug.
Now I have to read more the "Fun with resistors" thread to know if it is possible to mod the dock.

Does anyone know if it is possible to work like this?
The on/off key will be used to enable/disable the cardock mode. The yellow lines describes the new wires that i have to solder.

I decided to remove the smd board and plug a cable direct to the base. It's not the best solution bas it resolves my main issue (no USB data).

Galaxy S2 Sync Stand Dock station

I bought this dock for galaxy S2 and I'm very happy with it.
The advantage is you can use with galaxy S2 cover.
You can put it horizontally and vertically (horizontally no connection)
it is not cheap

Thanks a lot for posting this! Finally a dock that I can use my phone horizontally with! Been searching all over high and low for a dock that lets me use my phone horizontally so I can dock it on the text, use a keyboard and then use Splashtop to control my computer at home. I'll be able to do some serious tasking now! Holding my phone is such a downer when I can control it with a mouse and keyboard. Might as well be a tablet now
One question guys...do you think it can charge while in horizontal mode?
From what i get in the pictures, the charging is only in vertical mode. Anyone knows more info on that?
thanx!

Just search for "Sinjimoru Sync Stand for Samsung Galaxy" They're on Amazon and Ebay.

thank you friend
Do you reckon it'll work with an extended 3500mAh battery? It builds about 7-8mm extra on the back.

Landscape dock for HTC Wildfire G8

Hey all,
I wanna buy a docking station for my Wildfire.(the regular one,not the S)
I know I can buy a cheap standing one,with a little USB cable,but I want a landscape one,like this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/190615500956?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649
I've checked gsmarena.com,and the dimensions of the S are a little bit smaller than the G8.
Will it work for me,or am I doomed to use the standing one?
Thanks in advance.

there isn't a dock station like this for the wildfire
Does not seem to read this peripheral products wildfire
There's an easy way and free. You will need a bit of tape and a cutting tool like blade! Just tape the free ends of the box it came in! and cute a hole in the side for usb, power button and earphone port
for example

and this one with the phone inside the metro tiles is just from launcher 7
If you want more details just pm me!

FIGURED IT OUT!!!!
It was driving me CRAZY!!!
So is what causes this problems is the dock mode being stuck. When you dock your phone the dock connection completes a specific circuit in the phones USB port that will tell the phone it's in dock mode. This can get stuck when you accidentally push the wall charger into the phone UPSIDE DOWN (Which I did and then got the problem) bending that pin down completing the circuit permanently.
THE FIX:
Take something sharp and/or thin like a knife and push the pin up ever so slightly. DO NOT FORCE it as you will break the pin clean off. Once you disconnect the circuit, you'll see your phone turn it's screen on. That means you did it!
Good luck! And your welcome!

[Q] No Bluetooth/Wifi after Charge board replacement

The charge port on my phone went bad and needed to be replaced. The replacement went smoothly but now it I have no bluetooth or wifi antenna. I get maybe 1 bar indicated if I am a few feet from a wifi hub and bluetooth isn't working at all. I thought it might be something to do with the new charge board so I replaced it again with the same results. If anything it might be even worse now. Any tips on what I should be looking for that is wrong?
Sounds like you broke one thing fixing another . If it's physical damage you need to go backwards and check all your steps and see what happened.
If software issue try reflashing modem.
Pp.
I found the problem and it, which is a simple one, The fix though I think is going to be difficult. A very, very small capacitor is missing from the board. I must have hit it during the charge board change. If I knew the value of the cap I could probably solder a new one on. I have no idea how to find that out though. Here is a picture of the missing part.

A lot of internet digging has turned up the spec on the missing cap-
Samsung part #2203-006665
0.0022NF,0.25PF,25V,C0G,0603, C-CER,CHIP
That particular number is out of stock everywhere but I was able to find an equivalent from DigiKey.com
Samsung #CL03C2R2BA3GNNC
Digi-Key #1276-1403-1-ND
I bought 10pcs @ 2 cents a piece.
Good luck with the soldering,
In case that doesn't work for you maybe this will work for you.
Pp. Lol
Soldered in the microscopic capacitor yesterday and phone is back to 100%!

(solution) Ghost touch, ramdom turning on and off screen

You need to make sure its not app, rom, kernel, related, try booting in safe mode to see if problems persits if no then is app related.
If you wipe and reinstal rom and problem persist then this might be help full
Before anything else i sugest you look for zenfone 2 dissambly vids so you get to know what you are going to be doing, it is easy.
Before telling you the solution let me explain my phone symptoms:
1) Ghost touchs, be aware if you have selected show cursor coordinstes or show touch, much of the times this ghost touch doesnt appear.
2) Phone screen starts turning on and off by itself. This is very annoying I tried turning off doble touch to wake but this didnt help.
So what is the solution?
You need to open the back of the phone unscrew everything and then in the charging usb port you need to make sure that the back part of this pice doesnt make contact with the metal back plate. What I did is to use an electrical pice of tape that cut. And simple as that my phone working normal again.
Remeber to screw everything tight as possible.
Pd: i didnt took any pics but im show what part of the phone im referring
Hope this helps have a great day
