car charger and protective case

anyone recommend one of these?
also need a couple protective cases, what's good?

the one listed for the Aria should be fine. you just need one with a micro USB connector. I have a power outlet to USB port adaptor in my car, and just use a normal USB cable for charging. saves me the hassle of buying a new charger each time i get a new phone.
i haven't felt the need for a case yet, so no recomendations from me there.

I can't find it on the website, but Walmart has a DC car charger with just two female USB ports, which is awesome, would actually let you charge two USB devices at the same time using the original charge cable. (Also, since HTC is awesome enough to use normal mini-USB ports, a replacement cable is like $10, not $29 as with iPhone). Anyone have one of these that can confirm it works with the Aria?

Like others said, you don't need a car charger specifically for the Aria. Just look for the cheapest micro (not mini) usb charger you can find. I picked one up from my local Fry's for $4.

I have two Honda CRV's and both come equipped with USB port.
Does that mean that any 'ol generic miniport connector will work as "a charger" ?
If anyone comes up with a suggestion for "cradling" inside car, please post
Thanks for the replies.

does this page list the device that is recommended ? the 3.99 item?
maybe these
or also on dealextreme.com

i just bought one off of amazon for a penny.

Any microUSB cable should work, that is the beauty of companies that stuck with connector standards.
a great place for cables is monoprice.com. really cheap price for great quality stuff. I grabbed 4 microUSB cables, an HDMI, and some component cables from there for less than $10.

USB data cable

Do any of you guys and gals know of an aftermarket cable that will work with the captivate. I lost the original one that came with the phone. Have since bought two different chargers, one from the att store (zero charger), and they charge the phone but don't put it on USB mode like the original one did when I plug it to a laptop.

All you need is a standard MicroUSB to USB cable. Make sure it's a standard cable, and not a "charge only" cable though.
A bit of advise, generally if you buy a cable that isn't a Samsung USB cable, you're going to have to take a razor blade to your new cable and cut away some of the rubber around the MicroUSB plug. You'll see that untrimmed, you might have a hard time getting the cable secured in the phone's port.

Thanks man. I actually just noticed the "charging only cable" written on the tag on the cable. Now I know what to look for. And you're right, the one I bought from a gas station was always popping out. The one from att fits like a glove though.
Sent from my rooted Cappy.

All it takes is a razor blade or something similar, and a few seconds. I use a bunch of generic USB cables which all have fat plug heads. Trimming a little of the rubber off and they all work perfect.

Weird, for some reason my original cable from ATT now is really loose, I have to like set the phone down a certain way to keep it charging/plugged in.
The only cables that now do fit snuggly are the ones from my external mini hard drives with the fat head, haha, I wonder why...my captivate still looks normal, can't figure it out.
I guess I should see if my normal cable fits with my externals or falls out of those too, if so it would be the cable. But it seems weird that the fat headed cables fit snuggly with my captivate, so that makes me think maybe its the captivate.
long winded stupid post, sorry.

i bought a blackberry cable from best buy... data and charging... 16 bucks. but when ever your puppy ate your data cable in the middle of the night and you're phone is at 30% battery, ya tend to pay for it...

Check out www all4cellular DOT com
They have the OEM Samsung Captivate (U.S./Edison) Wall Charger and USB Charging+Data Cable for $6.95 + $2 Shipping.
The item number is "eta0u60jbe". But this item # includes BOTH the USB Wall Charger (# ETA0U60JBE) AND the USB-to-Micro USB data/charging Cable (# ECC1DU2BBE)!
I bought two of these and they are EXACTLY like the original Charger and ~5ft. USB Cable that comes with the Captivate. They are OEM/Samsung-branded and labeled and are not Chinese-made knock-offs. I am in SoCal and received them within a few days of ordering.
Here's a direct link:

I had similar issues, till I realized that the problem was with the sliding door for the microUSB port - make sure it is pushed all the way back (you may hear a click) - its only then that all my MicroUSB cables fit w/out any modifications to them.
as always YMMV.
hope that helps

I second the Monoprice.com recommendation. I buy ALL my cables there. The heads on their micro USB cables are too large to plug into the Captivate unmodified, but I used a Dremel to fix that.
Both of my Monoprice cables are going strong, in contrast with my OEM cable, which started out excellent, but is now so loose as to not maintain a connection unless the phone and cable are precisely arranged.

I have the same problem with the original cable not fitting snug. Yes, the door is open all the way...until the click. I'm just glad to know I'm not the only one have the problem. Been doing it since day 1. I'm afraid to cut any bit of it off since its already slimmed down and there isn't much left to cut

I have a 1009 model. Assuming that means it was manufactured Sept,2010. Now to find a microUSB

We have some micro USB 5' Cables coming in Monday. If they are like the sample they not only fit the Captivate properly, but when plugged into our new Car Plug ->USB (2100mA) adapter, my Captivate shows "Charging (AC) ".
We originally brought in the Hi-Power USB car adapter so iPad & Tablet customers could both run & charge at the same time. We have had enough request from customers looking to use it with Smart Phones, that I had to find the best matching cable.

As mentioned, get your cables from monoprice. I mean, you just can't beat a usb cable for $2. If it needs trimmed, I usually just use a razor knife/box cutter to remove the bulk, and it works perfectly. I actually had to order a 25ft. VGA cable from them a couple of days ago...$8. Seriously. Definitely the cheapest place I've seen to buy cables.

Multimedia dock available NOW!

I was browsing around on ebay and found a multimedia dock for our beloved TB's. Its deff not the highest quality dock i have ever seen, but it looks like a viable replacement until Verizon or HTCpedia release the official one. It doesnt look like it is slanted slightly to have a nice viewing angle but still its $30...the one from Verizon is $60. Let me know what you guys think.
http://cgi.ebay.com/USB-Sync-Battery-Charger-Cradle-HTC-Thunderbolt-4G-/380333733043?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item588da834b3

That one has been available for a little while now. There is a thread where someone has a link for it cheaper also. I'm holding out for the Verizon one.

I would avoid this one, I purchased one from amazon and returned it the same day. The viewing angle is horrible, it is difficult to put in and take off (almost dropped my TB taking it off), and worst part about it, It did not charge the phone. All the lights worked on it, but would not produce a charge. I will wait for the verizon one if it ever comes out.

aw really? i wanted to get this only for charging purposes but whats the point if it doesnt charge

Bah, Noob with first smartphone here! I failed to read any replies, and jumped at the deal, and even ordered the silicon soft case from the same guy.
I want to plug the phone into my Roku box's USB to show videos and pictures I took on the phone. I went to the Verizon store and they said that their multimedia cradles would be available soon, but so far 3 weeks have past and no cradle.
Well, I guess I could fix it if it don't work, I just hope that the extended battery fits.
I bought the soft case to see if I could cut out the extended battery hump easily with a laser engraver.

Misleading title, please change.

Hmm... I've been wanting a cradle for awhile now. So I jumped on this offer, and like any good online buyer, I look for reviews on the product AFTER I buy it. Can you guys confirm that this won't charge the phone? I was just looking for something to hold the phone up while I use WiFi keyboard. :/

OK I have this dock but I knew going in what it was going to be about so I can give you an idea of what you're getting.
The dock has two connectors on it. One is a USB cable (removable) and one is an A/C plug. The A/C plug is there ONLY to charge the second battery and does not charge the bolt when plugged into the dock. It WILL charge the extended battery (the OEM extended batt does fit in the spare battery slot) but not when it's actually on the Bolt. You can't fit the Bolt in the dock with anything other than the stock battery on it.
The USB cable plugs from the dock into (duh) a USB port on your PC. When it's plugged into the USB port the Bolt does detect the connection and I have been able to charge the Bolt this way. I've also been able to mount the SD card this way to move files and stuff. It doesn't charge as fast being USB vs wall charger but it does charge it. I'm looking at it right now and it just charged it to 100 percent.
The USB cable will not plug directly into the Bolt. It's Mini USB and not Micro USB. Another issue is that you can forget leaving the Bolt in a case and putting it on this dock. It will not fit with any case that I've seen. As was previously mentioned the viewing angle is a bit harsh (it's not angled.) It's basically a straight up and down mount so unless you're putting the dock somewhere at least at eye level it's not as easy to view.
This dock also has NO HDMI port on it. I have mine at work because I don't need the HDMI here. I'm going to get the OEM dock for home use since it's expected to have the HDMI out.
So to summarize it does charge the Bolt's stock battery in the dock as well as the extended in the spare battery slot. You can use the USB functions while plugged into the dock. I'm streaming Pandora right now while docked. The viewing angle is a bit harsh when the dock sits below eye level. The Bolt charges over USB with this dock. The spare battery will only charge via the attached A/C plug. You can't charge it in a case. The USB cable (removable) is mini USB NOT Micro USB and there is no HDMI.
Hope this helps.
ETA: I should add that you could use one of those USB to A/C adapters and plug the USB cable from the dock into A/C and charge that way (if you just wanted a faster charging solution.) I have tested it and it does charge that way.

Many thanks Cubs2008 ! This is exactly what I was looking for. I feel bad that I bought the dock on Ebay for $27 when I could have gotten it on Amazon for less, but lesson learned. Glad to know that I can charge the phone and the battery! Now to figure out the viewing angle problem (post it notes under the front end?). lol.

I paid even more ($34 I think) but it does what I need it to for now. If I needed HDMI at work I'd have waited but no point in that.
As for the viewing angle it's really not too bad if you can raise the dock more to your eye level. It does wiggle a little bit left to right in the dock (but very little.) You could put it on a book or something that would raise it up and it's fine. I sit pretty low at my desk in my chair so it's not nearly as much of an issue for me (and it's not quite at eye level.)
There is one more thing I forgot to add...someone mentioned getting it in and out of the dock being a pain and I totally agree. It's due to the fact that it basically sits almost upright in the dock. There are times where I've gotten frustrated just trying to get it in or out of there. It's because I always think of angling it into the dock rather than going straight down with it. When I do drop it straight in it usually slides right in with no issue. However I also have a Zagg max coverage shield on my Bolt so I may have more of an issue because of that.
Good luck!

Thanks for the information, Cubs2008! Very much appreciated.
Wish I had a contact at a factory in China... probably wouldn't be very difficult to produce a better quality desktop dock at a competitive price!

No kidding! If they would've angled the dock in front just a little bit and added an HDMI port this thing would've slayed the OEM dock. It still does a lot on its own IMO and we probably would've seen the dock for $60+ instead of around $30.
I'll still get the OEM dock when it comes out but this one does do what I need it to at work. Yay.

they can't just add an HDMI port just like that. if they could we already would see a post on here about a hdmi cable.

The dock arrived today...
Here is the lowdown after disassembling it:
It looks to be assembled by children with a hot glue gun and old fashioned soldering gun. There is gobs of hot glue used to hold in the 2 LED's. One is an insanely bright blue led, and the other, untested and discarded, is a bi-color led.
There are 2 completely isolated circuits inside, one being a simple micro-USB connector on a cable that is hot glued in place, with the blue LED tapped off the 5V from the USB. I could not find any resistor inline with the LED, so it's lifespan is questionable at best.
The second circuit is the battery charger board held in place with 1 screw at one end, and the mini-USB socket at the other. It has wires to the bi-color LED. This is powered by a 5V 1A wall wart. It does not supply any power to the USB that connects to the phone
The LED's have their full length of lead wire in tact, with over-sized shrink tubing loosely covering them, and all that excess lead wire is sticking out of the hot glue like cat whiskers.
In effect it electrically comparable to a $5 battery charger, and a separate $1 USB to micro-USB cable, nothing more.
There is no media functions whatsoever. It is difficult and time consuming to plug the phone into the cradle, and you cannot use it with the extended battery or any type of case.
Advice: pass! Use your easier to plug in HTC USB cable, and if you want a separate battery charger, get another brand.

They probably could've when they manufactured it.

wow, Cubs2008 thanx for the indepth info!

I wanted to add to the topic that you can actually stand the entire dock upright with the Bolt plugged in and the extended battery in there and it will stay standing up. I'd advise placing the battery and the Bolt in it landscape and then pick the entire dock up and it will stand up. I've used it this way with no ill effects.

I work for vzw and the Samsung charge and thunderbolt have a charging dock that not only charges, but comes with an extra battery that charges in the dock itself. Should be released very soon.

Hardwire kits customer feedback thread

I've had a mini 0806 hardwire kits (like one of these: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sop=15&_nkw=mini+0806+hardwire) powering my dashcam for a while and was quite happy with it, so I decided to get the same one for my phone mount/Qi charger and while it supplies enough amperage to light a small LED on the charger it's not enough to actually charge the phone (and the charger works just fine with alternative power supply methods including the built in USB outlet and the cigarette lighter adaptors).
So I figure it's something in the converter that my Qi charger doesn't like and I'm after a better one.
Aliexpress has a variety of the converters starting from a little over $3 for a dual USB type which would be future-proof as I'd only need to replace the cable if I'll need to switch to a type-c in the future, namely Fulree and CPT-branded boxes: http://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesa...Country=CA&needQuery=n&isRtl=yes&isFreeShip=y -- scroll down half-way thru the page.
Anyone has experience with either of those? I was thinking of ordering both and testing them out, however it's PITA for me to have them connected so I'd rather install one based on another user's feedback.
Can you guys recommend either option over the other?
Thanks!

Car fast charger?

Does anyone have a car charger that works with fast charging? Or any recommendations on one that will work?

If you're looking for wireless I don't think there is anything out there right now. I bought the iottie like a day or 2 before news broke of the speed reduction. They say they are not going to go for certification. I have an email out to Anker's marketing team.

there are tons of type c options out there, personally I'm using the PD charger from choetech. anything rated for either 3a/5v or PD will fast charge. this is the one I'm using:

Yes - I use the Iottie One Touch Wireless Charger and it works GREAT for every phone I have used it - including my Pixel Xl 3
It is a little pricey but it is the most versatile charger I have found - and it is very user friendly - for taking the phone in our out of the phone holder/charger.
I also really like the Iottie Discs they include with the charger/holder - it allows you to mount the charger/phone mount on a curved dash without any problems at all - and in a pinch, they can be removed without messing up the dashboard. Great Charger - great Car Phone Mount. Really is the best one I have seen

I've been using the Anker one and works really well. in essence any charger with USB Cand PD certification will do the trick

tried out my choetech 10w wireless car charger. didn't mess with any measurement apps since I knew it wouldn't charge at 10w, but it did charge the phone with navigation running, screen on and music streaming over bt. since it's powered by type c you can always just plug the phone in directly if you need fast charging, but if it outpaces navigation that's generally good enough for me.

I've been using a 10w wireless charger in the car and it works with Google Maps navigation and Bluetooth audio running. It doesn't charge fast but not having to deal with magnets is nice. The only issue is that if you turn the car off the arms won't open at the push of the button. Not a big issue because the pho e is easy to take out.
If I do need to fast charge I just place the phone in the crawl then unplug the power from the car charging mount and straight into the phone. I'm using a USB C PD car cigarette lighter socket.

Does it still charge and maintain a charge while using the phone for streaming/nav, etc?
Oh, and will it work if my XL has a bulky case?

I have a question.
See it's nice to have wireless chargers in the car with arms to hold the phone. Even better to have a wireless charger with magnet.
Now I won't go in debate of over charging the phone but is there a wireless charger for a car that has a button to turn ON and OFF the charge? I don't care with or without a magnet to hold the phone.
I drive allot so I don't mind a slow charging the phone, I do care about leaving the phone on without over charging it. Plugging the cord in and out isn't fun.

it does charge while using navigation - and Wireless Android Auto - (which is a pretty big drain on the battery) I don't know about a "Bulky Case" I use the Ringke Crystal Fusion Case" which is fairly thick - and it works fine for me - but I haven't tried any other case, so I can't say for sure.
I love the Iotti One Touch - Wireless - it is an awesome holder/charger
Good Luck

Granted i will have to install or use two side tape to attach two metalic strips onto the phones case to get the magnet stick to it. Should be piece of cake or buy those metallic rings that sell and attach them.
there is also this one, but sadly it doesnt come with a suction cup (which i really need) I does come with a metal ring tho.
