Now I'm home, it's much easier to post links
Can't believe nobody has posted about buying this.

Whoa that's cheap! Thanks!
EDIT: Apparently the cost of shipping the to my place costs more than the charger itself. :/
Not exactly economical.

Make sure you check to buy it from Yellowdeals. Look on the right under more buying choices. I believe that is what the OP is pointing too. Thanks for posting the deal.

Last night I went to YellowDeals' merchant page. They have tons of OEM products and free shipping for all of em.
Also I got a different price on my pc. Is Amazon still doing the different prices for different people crap they in trouble for a couple yrs ago? On pc, it was 3.18. Not much difference, but still.

Ordered a few to have as back up. Can't best that price. Thanks

no prob, just hit the thanks button

I recently lost mine. I have other chargers around the house but another "Samsung" one would be nice. And you can't beat that price. Thanks for the heads up.

Bought two, thanks for the heads up.

I just got 4! need one for each computer XD

I got mine from Seller1ON1. Charger+cable+car charger, all for 9.44 with free shipping. All are samsung branded, chargers look 'slightly used' with scratches. But they are pretty legit Samsung ones.

Anybody find one on the Canadian amazon list? I could use another one for myself.

thank you for this. just picked one up.

Looking to sell my Lapdock -$200 O.B.O.

Hi guys, I'm selling my lapdock for the Atrix. I bought it brand new during launch day at around $300 when bundled with phone. The lapdock is in perfect condition - Never dropped, scratched or put any kinds of drinks near it.
To be honest i've only used my Lapdock for a total of around 40 hours, i was working on a Windows Conversion for the dock but since I'm a Game Designer and I'm starting to get real serious with a project, i need to let go of it and get a real Laptop...i really like this lapdock its very light and very useful (especially after what Sogarth did with his mods).
I currently see onit priced Amazon, Ebay, and a few other sites that sell it for $200 as the lowest. I'm trying to sell it for $200 if possible.

Shipping to 94607?

Sure, that's not too far.

If you both can't make a deal, i am interested to buy this as well. However would you ship internationally ?

Someone created a thread to sell a laptop he bought new and has used. People that are viewing the thread see someone else point them towards a refurbished unit from AT&T, as though to suggest it's better to go there than buy from the person who created the thread. AT&T refurbished units are a crapshot, you don't know what the previous issue was. They have no bearing on the OP's thread and is a full-on c*$kblock, if you will.

Tried PM'ing a couple of times but aint working! Will give 200 providing shipping to Melbourne Australia is not too expensive. PM me if you can

why the mods havent come in yet i dont know but this isnt the buy&sell section

OSNPA, are you suggesting that it would be better to keep an unwitting Atrix user in the dark, letting him or her purchase a used lapdock for around $35 more than the cost of an "officially" used lapdock, just so the seller will not be offended?
It's called market competition. An informed consumer living in the U. S. with the opportunity to purchase a refurbished dock from ATT would never pay more and wait longer for one unless he or she were doing the seller a favor.
To put it simply, if the seller intends to sell this dock to an ATT customer, he or she will have to lower the price or take advantage of someone's ignorance. In my opinion, it would be bad form to keep a consumer in the dark and just sit back and snicker as you watch a transaction (or in this case, a rip off) transpire. But hey, at least the seller didn't get his feelings hurt AND he made more than what he should have.
Fortunately for the seller, not everyone has access to a refurbished lapdock, specifically our friends overseas, and $200 is quite a bargain in that market. I think everyone has a chance to win in this situation, and to me, it seems like bad form to try and prevent this ideal scenario -- one in which no one feels cheated.
I don't mean to attack you, OSNPA, but I'm trying to understand what you have to gain by trying to foster a market on these forums in which the lapdock is kept at an artificially high price. Are you trying to sell one yourself? Anything to help me understand where you're coming from would be much appreciated.
To the seller, I think you will have no problem selling the dock for $200. (I would not have started so low.)
To anyone who does not have access to a refurbished lapdock, this price is almost impossible to beat.

Refurbished means it was broke...that means it will eventually break or have problems. mine looks like its from the assembly line.

That's actually not true. Refurbished is anything that has been brought back to factory specifications and tested to be working. Yes, some of these are broken units that have been repaired, but MANY others are just returned within the 30-day return period, especially for a once $400+ item like the lapdock. Mine also looks like its from the assembly line. More knowledge here: http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/devices/buy-refurbished-phones.jsp
I'm sure yours looks great though so happy selling!

Well, if customers are uninformed on the price of refurbished lapdocks when there's a thread dedicated to it in this very sub-forum, well I have no pity for them. It's a consumer's responsibility to educate themselves. He's not selling a refubished unit, it is not the same situation, so the prices should have no bearing on what the OP asks. Regardless of whether money is involved, think of it this way: a developer releases a ROM and the 1st response to that thread is another developer saying that he also released a ROM and go to this other thread to read all about it. You may like that idea, I don't know, to me it's a wtf moment.

SkOrPn Samsung Jig & USB OTG

When I had a Vibrant, the jig helped me out of a few jams. Not too long ago, I got the Galaxy S2 as a replacement, so when I started playing around with it, I wanted to make sure I had one close by just in case. The jig is a tiny little thing and I'm prone to losing things, so it was long gone by the time I looked for it again. I decided I'd go cheap and ordered one from an eBay seller in China... that was a mistake. It was definitely cheap, but it didn't do a thing when I plugged it in. It wouldn't turn the phone on and it wouldn't put it into download mode. No sense in returning it either since the return shipping would cost more than I'd get back.
I still wanted to get a working jig and as luck would have it, I found a US based seller when I was looking around for a Kindle Fire factory cable. It turns out that he hand crafts these himself and XDA members give him overwhelmingly positive reviews for his products and service. I sent off a PM and he wrote me back in a flash, I put in my order and had it in 2 days! It's nicely built with a lanyard cord on it so I'm less likely to lose it and most importantly... it works!
I've attached some pictures here with the SkOrPn jig, the Chinese jig (the one without the cord that doesn't work), and my Galaxy S2 with the SkOrPn jig in download mode. It might cost a little more than the cheapest jig that you can find on eBay, but I'm happy to pay a little more for a quality product from a guy who takes pride in the things he makes. FWIW, I'm not affiliated in any way to this seller... I'm just a satisfied customer. He doesn't go out of his way to solicit sales of his products, so I just wanted to get the word out there for anybody that might be looking to purchase a jig for their phone.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/230634690605
http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=500006
Almost forgot... I've exchanged a number of PMs with him this past week and inquired about getting a USB OTG cable adapter. He said that while he doesn't currently make them, he'd certainly consider it if enough people showed some interest. Personally, I think a USB OTG cable is at the top of the list of must-have accessories for this phone, so let him know if you agree with me!

Does this one reset the counter on when booting into download mode?

I have ordered cheaper ones from china that do the job just fine.

The short answer is I do not know. I did flash an OS through ODIN at one point, but never looked at the download count to see if it had even incremented. That phone went back to T-Mobile for display issues before I got a working jig and I've only flashed a recovery with ODIN after that. There appears to be some mixed opinions on whether any jig will reset the counter, but I doubt that one jig would reset it while another would not. YMMV.

I'm glad that worked out for you. In my OP, I was just sharing my experience of ordering a cheap one from China that failed to do anything and then purchasing one from SkOrPn that worked as advertised. FWIW, I'm happy with my SkOrPn purchase even though I paid a bit more. Ultimately, I was glad to provide a small amount of support to a fellow XDA member and getting a quality product in return. To each his own.

I would love to support another member but you might want to have him update his ebay postings. As of now it does not list the jig working for the SG2. If he updates that then I would place an order.

I don't work for the guy, so it's not my job or place for me to tell him to update his listing, but I did send him a PM to have a look at your post. With that said, he states in his ebay listing...
The "SkOrPn JIG" is compatible with all known Galaxy S class phones, including the following:
So, that list is not an exclusive compatibility list... it's an "including, but not limited to" list. There's no difference in jig specs for the different models. If it works in those phones, it will work in the SGH-T989. I've also posted a picture in my OP with the jig in my phone.

Yes I understand it's not your job. I was only suggesting you let him know since you have started this thread in an effort to spread a kind word and support a member.
Also in the event I had ordered a jib from his ebay listing and it did not work I wouldn't have a leg to stand on regarding a refund because the model is not listed but I do understand what you are saying. In closing I'll kindly bow out of the thread since your reply seemed kinda aggressive.
Have a wonderful day.

Well, it wasn't meant to be an "aggressive" post, so I'm sorry if you took it that way. By no means was I yelling and there certainly wasn't any spittle flying at my monitor as I typed my reply.
I was just trying to make things clear and I also understand why you'd want some assurances. Personally, it didn't even occur to me to make sure this particular phone was in that list before I ordered. If you have reservations about it, I suggest you send him PM. I'm sure he'll vouch for his product and tell you that it will work in this phone. Good luck!

I just bought one.

It is already listed in the eBay ad for SGSII. I have sold over 1900 of these to xda members, teamwhiskey members, edt members and via word of mouth in multiple IRC channel's since 2010 and to date it has not failed on any samsung phone, the only failures have been phones with corrupted bootloaders a.k.a hard bricks. Also you said SG2 and I'm not aware if any SG2 devices so I can't list that device. All Samsung Galaxy S and SII series smartphones use the same resistance value for Download Mode as far as I know including the latest Google Nexus.
Thanks to the OP for getting the word out on my premium high quality Download Mode JIGs. There is NO OTHER JIG made as good as this one PERIOD

Sent a thanks hit your way.

It has come to my attention that some devices do and some don't have the Counter Reset feature. It is up to the purchaser to know if their phone works or not with that feature as I only guarantee Download Mode. Apparently the i727 or T727 (lol not sure which it is now) does not have that feature yet it is based on the SGS2 internals.
What is even more disturbing is I can not find any information that suggests the T989 works with even download mode. I found this Q&A that seems to suggest that Download Mode works but Counter resetting does not. However again, lol, I am sure I have had customers with a TMO t989 purchase my JIG and they were happy as can be, so Im not sure if they ever tried the counter reset thingy. And my tester Alexea sold her SGS2 to get the Gnex.
Please if anyone can let me know for sure one way or the other I would appreciate it... I get emails all the time asking me about the SGS2 phones and the Custom Binary Counter reset feature and that feature is not present on my T959 test phone.
EDIT: kinfauns says his T989 definitely goes into Download Mode, but he does not know if it works with the counter reset feature of the device. Also, all my ebay listings have been updated to include the T989 and many other devices.

You should offer local pick up in Albuquerque and I would buy from you.

Needed a jig (you never know when you'll need it) and the lanyard is a pretty cool feature. Also, I didn't trust the ones from China. Just couldn't bring myself to order something that was such an unknown (no matter the low cost).

The Chinese ones are not much different, in fact its the same exact connector and the only difference is the Chinese jigs are not tested to make sure the pins in question make contact, and so there is about a 15% failure rate, or even higher maybe. Someone like myself test each port before I even solder the resistor onto it, so I can weed out the bad apples and throw them away. They also do not test it on an actual phone to make sure it goes into download mode, and I do
Hence why they are so extremely cheap.

So is this jig for when the key combination doesn't work?

Samsung Warranty Fail

I have tolerated the charge cable coming out of my phone since day 1 with my Note2. I call to ask for a new cable and I am told to send my cable and charger to Samsung. After their technicians evaluate for defects, a new charger and cable will be sent out. So, what you're telling me is that I won't be able to use my $700 phone and $100/month service or communicate with friends and family until you figure out what you did wrong and send the replacement???---> Supervisor (same Filipino voice) directs me to Section 13, page 383 of the owner's manual. No cc option to send beforehand and charge in case I don't return the defect. So sorry for your inconvenience. You know that ain't right.

I think this is how it always worked as far as warranty goes. So, what do you think they should have done?

My experience with T-Mobile/HTC/Asurion/Motorola has been simply send a replacement or send and if we do not receive a replacement we will Bill your cc.

my usb cables always go bad. i just go buy a replacement and be done with it. its not worth any delay or warranty replacement when they cost less than $20 at any store.

You can't spend $15 on a charger to use your $700 phone and $100/month service and communicate with friends and family? Do you really need someone to tell you that it is OK to go buy your own damned charger instead of crying about how the world is screwing you? How much coddling do you require before you take matters into your own hands and solve a problem like an adult?
Sorry if I seem crass, but seriously, did the thought never cross your mind to just get another charger? And, why do you feel the need to point out the perceived race of the technicians at Samsung? Would it matter if the voice was Filipino or Indian or White? Do you think that has anything to do with your charger or the validity of your concerns?

If it were me I would just use one of the chargers from the other five phones I own.

They want the ac adapter too. But to answer your question and shut down all the negative rich people in here, I do have a backup charger. In fact I have 3-4 ac adapters and probably 3 cables from my HD2 and S2, in addition to the white on white pair that came with my white Note2. They have different varying mah output and are not Samsung oem(voids warranty, for those that gave that solution...I gave the S2 to the wife(who leaves her charger at work, often)...I take a charger to college and leave one at home. Charging or paying for a charger is not the issue, or the point. The point is service. You have lower expectations and bigger pockets than someone of the people that visit this thread. What you eat won't make me run to the restroom. My expectations are higher, in that: I expect a company to fix something that is defective, I expect them to offer more than one possible solution as experience has shown with other companies within the industry(T-Mobile,Motorola,HTC,Asurion), I expect them to be accomodating to continue to earn my business. People get on like I asked for a new Galaxy Note2. Pay this thread no mind then. This thread is for like-minded individuals with expectations and little disposable income. This thread is for people who like options, consistency, and quality workmanship from suppliers. I was trying to bring awareness and generate constructive conversation.

I'm sensitive to your question about the voice. My point was that I did not think that I was genuinely transferred to a supervisor and the voices were distictively alike. In addition, I was implying that the place handling my concern was not Korean, or American. The Samsung Return Center for the United States is about 15 minutes MAX from where I live. I grew up less than 10 blocks from there. The service I was being provided by phone was too far removed from Samsung Korea or the Samsung Return Center America. The rep told me she was in the middle of the Pacific.

Obvious troll fail, where do I get two minutes of my life back?

I think that this post is valid for the simple fact that I have had the same problems with my OEM cable coming out of the phone so easily and sometimes it won't even charge the Damn thing. It's ashame when my old HTC cable fits better in my Note 2 than the cable that came with it! I don't have a problem using a different came to charge, but I do flash Roms using Odin, and I have found that Odin only works with the OEM cable! So there is obviously a difference in these usb cables. It is a problem, especially for me. If just for flashing alone. I have my Htc cable in right now and it fits perfectly. No falling out. I think we should stop throwing insults and really see that there is a problem. I am completely happy with having the best phone ever created, but it's a nagging thorn in my side when the freaking cable it came with sucks.

I think Samsung should send all registered owners of Note II a free replacement USB cable. The stock cable sucks big time.

I had the problem with the cable sliding out very very easily, got a replacement phone and cable, and while the problem is there still, it's not as terrible.

I myself had issues with the cable/adapter so I sent both of them in with return label they provided me with, in the mean time I used my old 1A charger. The whole return and shipping back the replacement took less than a week, didn't even experience any inconvenience. When they say "technicians has to evaluate the defect", it doesn't mean they will hold on to your defective item and can't ship the replacement till they figure it out. They will ship the replacement as soon as they receive the defect.
Yes, I do think they should send the replacement first and have CC option, but this is their warranty policy and you complaining here posting "Samsung Warranty Fail" won't change anything or get you a new cable/adapter anytime soon....

This gave me a good laugh thank you. We all have the same cable. It works great when u not using the phone. Meaning just plug it in and walk away from it. If u wanna use it while u charge it u need a better cable to lock in to the micro usb port. It has nothing to do with getting the charger replaced. They not gonna do it. If by some chance u do get it replaced it will be by the same junk u been using.

[Q] Fastboot / Factory Cable available to buy on Amazon..?

Hello everyone,
I am new to the xda forums (Well, new as in I've just registered), but I've followed your tutorials on how to root and install Android on KF2.
Unfortunately for me, and for a whole bunch of other people, this hasn't worked.
I'm stuck at a red screen. Yeah.. Sucks. What's worse? It's my brother's kindle. He wanted me to install android for him. I keep telling him everything is alright, at the moment he's stuck using my Iconia tablet and my PS3. I want to return it to him good as new ASAP.
I want to buy a fastboot / factory cable for my kindle in order to reset it. However, the only places I can seem to find it is eBay / some guys here on the forums.
My family have an account on Amazon.co.uk, and I have some money left over from christmas. I was wondering, that if someone is currently selling Fastboot / factory cables, could you please put it up on Amazon? For example, on this link:
If someone could put it on Amazon uk for the one time, I will be very grateful.
I am only 15, and I need this cable asap. We have a family credit card and so hopefully I can buy it when it is available. I am sure that there is probably a lot of people in the same position as me, and having it available to buy on amazon would help so much.
(I am from UK, so please make it affordable for me (as well as shipping) otherwise I won't be able to buy it..)
Thanks for reading guys, enjoy the rest of your day
I tried contacting Amazon support. They said I could get a free kindle exchange, but I am two weeks out of my warranty. BOO HOO! D:

Try skorpn. Dude is legit and ships international.

Thanks,
I'll guess I'll buy one from him. He seems legit.
Shame I'm in UK, got to pay for international shipping and that :/
