hi all
will be in usa in a few weeks and will be buying wifi xoom
problem is i need a uk power adaptor
anyone know where i can pick one of these up online?
i googled it but got no favourable results

john.

I would probably just go with a travel adapter that you can buy at the airport or virtually every electronics store.

Yeah - thought of that but using a travel adaptor is not ideal on an ongoing basis for me
surely there is somewhere online that is selling these?
Has anyone seen any website offering them - only ones i have seen all have the same pic of the back of the charger where you cant see the pins to tell if its uk/US
would prefer a straight thru to the wall connection for charging if at all possible
thanks....

I would try eBay. Maybe you can get something from Taiwan or any other former UK colony since many of them will use the UK format. But honestly, why would anyone in the US sell a UK adapter for a specific device? That wouldn't sell very much so you still might want to consider something more general.

Thanks again creature
I do realise that noone in US would probably sell these
I was aiming this more towards anyone who may have bought one in US but is using it in UK or anywhere compatible with Uk style 3 pin plugs
Obviously noone has done this - surely I wont be the first......

Ok - I have found a UK site selling replacement charger units but again no pic of the front of the unit to see if its actually three pin
http://www.bmcdigital.co.uk/catalog...-charger-for-motorola-xoom-asm18wchargertri2a
It does list a part number though.
Could I ask two of you nice xoom owners one from US and one from UK to check the part number on your mains charger/adaptor please and post it here
The part numbers I see on the product details is
TEL-PDA-ACC-00622 (seems to be a motorola #)
and
ASM18WCHARGER-TRI2A (seems to be a site specific #)
Thanks you very much for your help
j.
just as a matter of interest - does anyone know if the atrix uses the same mains charger type as the xoom?

The model number on the US power adapter is FMP5632A.
From what I can see on the picture in your link it seems like what you need.
I think the Xoom has a unique charger b/c of the high power requirements. It is also not listed as compatible with the Atrix.

Thanks for your help on this - really appreciate it

No problem. That's what fora are there for

dealextreme.com. I bought one there for USD1.39 and it is free shipping.

Dual SIM Adapter

Hi,
I'm planning to order an Xperia ARC, but since I always wear 2 different phones, and this one is really big, I'd like to share the phone for the 2 sims.
Has anybody used a dualsim adapter with this model? Which model? How does it works? Does it fit inside the phone correctly?
Thanks in advance.

Has anybody tested a dual sim adapter?

What the F is a dual sim adapter?

@grouchomrx: no idea, sorry. Assuming the final size of the adapter (once you've cut the sims) is no bigger than a standard sim then it may well fit (not much space in the phone...), but i have no idea whether it'll work or not.
@Blomkungen: obviously youre not a golfer...

If u were to get one you'd have to switch from one to the other its no simultaneously
Sent from my Arc using XDA premium App

Of course, no simultaneously. I just wonder if it works, and in case someone tested, which model.
Simore seems not been checked yet...

Has anybody tested yet?
Thx

U try urself and let us know

I' waiting to receive the ARC today or tmrw. But I don't want to expend 60 euros to find it does not work... :S

Hi, I use a 'Magic Sim 26th A (cut)' I had from my last phone and that works OK for me in my Arc.
I got it from Euro Dual Sim. I see they have a 28th version now.

Full Xperia Play Accessories

Can someone tell me where can I buy full Xperia Play accessories at once (all in one) from Europe (don't want to pay custom fee...)? I looked at ebay.co.uk but found only single accessories

USB Host Cable for Xperia Tablet S

Hi.
I need help.
I want to buy USB host cable for my new Sony Xpeia Tablet (model SGPT121) and it seems that it is not available in whole Europe. I tried to order it from US or from Japan, but I can not find shop which sends to Czech Republic. Does anyone know where to get his cable?
It is SGP-UC3 http://www.sony.co.uk/product/other-sony-tablet-accessories/sgp-uc3
Thanks.

After running a quick search on the cable, not much was returned. The cable seems to be quite scarce and this is surprising seeing as most tablets require this. Worse still, your asking for it to be shipped to the Czech - Not many people will do that. After a year of membership with XDA, you will have access to the marketplace and you can look there. Or maybe you can appeal and a mod will let you in. Alternatively, if you have a friend with a year membership, ask them to have a look.
There is a high chance you will find your cable there.

this should be it
ehm, cannot post link because I am new but czech Alza has some usb cable for sony xperia tablets. (prodlužovací kábel is the name)
It seems that Sony do not want to sell tablet accessories in some countries and if they do, they do not allow it to send to diferent countries
like alza has eshop in slovakia too but they won't sell this cable (or cover, keyboard for sony tablet) in slovakia..

Yes, that's it. But Alza doesn't have it in stock. The same situation is in all Czech shops. I work in Sony Center in Prague, and even for our shop is impossible to obtain this cable at this moment. It seems that Sony - as usually - doesn't care about Czech customers. But it seems that we could have it in about 14 days from other supplier, so I will wait.

so still no new alternative cheap cable found yet??

[Q] Does anyone know where to sell an xperia play?

I'm thinking of selling my Xperia play.
It has an unlocked bootloader so it can be useful to developers and people who have locked bootloaders.
The bad thing about it is that it has a small chip in the screen.
Can anyone tell me reliable sites where I can sell it?
Thanks

Do you already tried the ebay?
I buyed my Xperia Play there.

No
I don't want to sell it on ebay just yet

Or does anyone want to buy it
