Looking for original mytouch charger.

I have been looking for awhile for a charger for my mytouch 3g. It's the mytouch that didn't come with the a 3.5 mm headset jack. I believe its the first gen mytouch. I've been on eBay and amazon, still can not find it. All that ever comes up is the charger for the second gen mytouch. The one I need has a weird shape, looks square with a small slant on the corner. if anyone knows where I can find it I would be very grateful.
Sorry if my explination is hard to understand.

Although the charging point is slanted (same as the port on the G1) an ordinary Mini-USB charger will work with it just fine.

I'll try when I get home. Thanks

[Q] Correct pin-out for DIY "Car Dock" cable?

Hi all, I was hoping to find some information that would shed light on this issue.
Way back, when I still owned a Galaxy Note 1, I followed the steps outlined in this thread to make a "Car Dock" cable that would take audio signal from USB while charging the device. It worked perfectly.
However, it doesn't seem to work with the Note 2. Samsung must have changed the pin-outs, or perhaps the required resistor is no longer a 619k.
Does anybody know what might be the correct way to DIY this?
Thanks in advance!

Check the accessories forums here and AT&T. I know I've seen mention of people doing the same thing for the 2 and discussing which pins and resistors.

Going to Greece :: Do I Need A Voltage Converter?

Hey everyone. I'm traveling from the US to Greece. The only two things that will need charging are my computer and phone.
I'm wondering if the US Galaxy S III would be ok charging without a voltage converter. I know I need the adapter to plug it in to begin with, but I want to know if I need to spend more money on a voltage converter to make sure my S III doesn't suddenly die on me. The charger says that it will support 100v to 240v. I believe Greece is 240v, so does that mean I'm safe?

I had taken my phone to Greece in the summer and I'll I used was the European plug adapter

Look at your charger. It should say what it requires. Most chargers are 100-240 so it should work with just a plug converter. I could charge my phone in Russia which is 240 with just a $1 plug adapter.

Yeah, it says 240, so that's why I figured I should be fine.
Thanks for the responses!

Need help finding a case that...

As pictured I have broken my sceeen.
Luckily the crack is in the bezel.
My question is does anyone have suggestions on a case that would cover the crack so that I can live with the phone. If the crack were worse I would spend the $200 to get it fixed but I have an upgrade in 4 months and will probably get the Note 3 later this year. So I am looking to cover the crack with a good case so that I don't have to look at it.
Thinking about the Defender because of the belt clip (could be useful for work) but it doesn't cover the bezel as much as I would like. I am reaching out for any suggestions before I jump on buying it. Any help is appreciated.

Try the accessories thread, you'll get more responses

I own a Denfender, and you're right, it doesn't cover the bezel very well. But for your purposes, I think it would be fine. Especially if you're only holding on to it for another 4 months or so.

Thanks. But considering this is a question, it belongs in Q&A. If I were posting an accessory for other people to see it would go under accessories. See I'm one of the smart people on XDA that follows the rules.

Just leave it, ocd
Ya sucks...my s3 shattered the whole screen,, I used it all the way till I got my note 2.

This is what I had to endure. ..

Found a pretty nice "fake" Griffin Survivor case that covers most the bezel. And it comes in lime green. Think I found a winner.

Whatever, you see the exact same questions all over the accessories thread, and there's no reason to be a smart ass about it.

Looks like an accessory thread now.

Questions go in Q&A. Just because the question was answered doesn't mean it belongs in a different section. When a normal question in Q&A gets answered it doesn't get moved to General. Use common sense. Read the rules. Not being smart ***, it's the truth. That's how forums work. Feel free to report, I encourage it. I report threads daily for being in the wrong place. It won't hurt my feelings, but it's in the correct place.
Also considering the thread WAS on track with people who actually like helping other people, there is no need to keep this going and if anyone else with something useful to share has anything to say they can have the opportunity to do so.

I didn't say you posted it in the wrong forum, I simply stated that you might get better responses from people who constantly search for and talk about cases. And you're still being rude, so there's that. But whatever, as irritated as you made me I can smirk knowing that the screen crrack/karma fairy visited you.

My bad sorry about that.
Anyone?
I'm in need of a box ASAP as I need the phone.
Thanks

Your best bet is to send your bricked phone to mobiletechvideos.
Just buying a riff box wont magically fix your phone. You have to learn how to connect your phone to the box, how to interface with the computer, unless you know what you are doing, the riff box is as useful ss a boat anchor.

Thanks for the reply I know how to follow info
Also going to get the Jtag adapter that's made for the
I747m. I want to also get the box since I would be the only
One in Eastern Canada to get one so I could provide services here.
So any good place to get the box? Are the 2 that I posted reliable?
Thanks

Wow thanks guys for the help.
I thought asking on a site like this I would get an a fast answer since this is a site to ask a question like I have asked.
But guess I was wrong since I have yet to get an answer.

Hopefully not to late!

This may be a tad bit ti late, but yes the sites you suggested are reliable riffbox vendors. My best suggestion would be to visit the official site (riffbox dot org) as they post all of their officially supported vendors there. I myself have been looking for one as well and researched it for sometime and came across early on the primary site. After browsing through the list those 2 that you posted are indeed there. Good luck and hopefully this answered your question.
Don't take your anger out on the actual XDA site, not all questions stand out right away where users are caught by the title and or may or may not have enough knowledge to answer every question that is being asked.
Remember that XDA nor myself can be held responsible for anything that may go wrong by any means of a bad transaction or making a decision soley based on a response from any user here. Take what is said as a suggestion and may be good to use Google as it can be very useful to find information the way I did prior to coming across this question!
Good Luck!!!
P.S. If you end up purchasing one or have done so already post your results on how everything worked out and if at all possible help others as we have tried to help you! I personally would love to hear the results!
