Can anyone point me to a place/Website where a Serial Cable is available for the XDA.
While in the UK I thought I had unlocked my PDA, with a borrowed cable and the Software download from this site.
When I got back home, I found it had not worked properly so I want to try it again.
I do not want to make my own cable.
Any suggestions please
ebay sells them for $5.99.
Enter xda,serial in ebay search.

they also sell accessories for the XDA
Hi,
Thinking of purchasing XDA II. Will put my existing sim from my Nokia 6310i into XDAII, will it work?
Also, is it any good?
It will only work if O2 has supplied the unlatching code, if it is unlatched then your Vodafone sim will work fine.
Thanks mate,
Can i buy it anywhere else apart from O2?
I have seen 30 units sold on ebay by one guy at £399 each, I saw another go for £360, might be worth looking there.
i bought mine from a bancrupt stock for £200! :wink: used the program (xda2unlock-setup-v2.2.exe) to unlock it to any network, upgraded to WM2003SE created a custom Extended Rom, and Set up MMS Messaging all with info off this site! Ive now sold my nokia 6230 and my old hp ipaq and i'm currently £50 up on the deal !!

OK I really need your help. Read some forum but still confused. I am out of town for a business and in a hurry I just picked up my plug for my XDA II without that little adatpor that fits into your phone. Can I just pick up an adaptor for bestbuy for an ipaq? Any suggestion how I can charge this baby? I have the plug but not the adaptor that fits the phone. thank you

go to this page
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/Connectors
and read
Modifying iPaq accessories
The quick answer is NO. The power dongle for an iPaq will fry your XDA II device. The connectors are the same but the pinouts are not. Don't do it!
As Rudegar posted above, you can modify the iPaq power dongle to work with the XDA II, but I don't think I would have the necessary tools to make this conversion while traveling, and I suspect you do not either. I would look hard for a dongle for the XDA or XDA II, as either will work.
:-(
That's what I was afraid of. So there is no way I can use the phone for a week?
This guy
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=6417&highlight=ipaq+charger
Said he is using h5500 to charge his phone. can anyone else confirm that? I also read that xdaII pinout changed. I am confused. I don't want to fry my phone but I do need my phone this week.
PS Is there any local dealer I can walk in and buy a chrager? I am in GA now
jaz
As I am, he is using the TRANSFORMER from his HP5500, but connecting it to the power dongle that came with his i-mate. As has been said - don't use the power dongle from an HP/Compaq.
Being anywhere in the US is problematic for buying any XDA II accessories. You might try a T-Mobile store or a CompUSA and see if any have the power dongle or cradle for an SX56/T-Mobile PocketPC Phone.
so plug for t-mobile pocketpc phone will work? here is a link
http://t-mobile.com/products/access...icename=T-Mobile Pocket PC 2003 Phone Edition
Thanks
ok
I just want to make sure before i buy the car charger from T-mobile that it will not blow my motherboard. The car charger from t-mobile will charge my xda II phone?
Well . . . will it?
To the best of my knowledge it will. I own an i-mate and have never owned an XDA, but I remember reading that the charger will work.
I keep waiting for someone who has owned both an XDA and an XDA II to chime in and tell me I am either right or wrong - but so far nobody has uttered a peep!
Come on folks! Will an XDA power dongle/car charger/cradle charge the XDA II or not? Personal experience would be reassuring I'm sure.
got it working
I just wanted to let the community know that I went to the T-mobile store and picked up a car charger and everything is charged my phone. I have phone back.
thanks for all the help.

i've had both a xda1 and 2 and i still use the cradle and power charger from the xda1 on my xda2 so their power pin out are the same

Yes, if you re read my post I said I am using the power part of the iPAQ unit but connected to the XDA II dongle. I AM NOT USING AN IPAQ DONGLE
Ed
Rudegar - Thanks for the confirmation for me, for Jazlee . . . and for anyone who does a search in the future! Very helpful first-hand information.
Jazlee - I am glad you are back in business! I can't imagine being without my i-mate for a week - particularly while traveling. That's when you need it MOST! Congratulations.
I picked up a couple aftermarket usb cables of Ebay for my tab so I could connect it at the office and use them in the charger for travel. I realized today I cant connect to my PC when I use the aftermarket cables. Just a heads up
You have to get the cable that matches your tab model. The pin outs are not the same between models.
Where??? I always got my accessories for my phones on Ebay without issue.
I believe what the OP is saying is make sure get charge and sync cable. I'm guessing the one he bought was only capable of charging. Fewer pins to connect = cheaper costs.
The pins are different for different models. When I bought a second cable off ebay, I couldn't get the cheapest, because it wouldn't work for my model. I had to buy the at&t model.
I bought a couple of these usb sync/charge cable recently from the eBay and gad no problems with them. They came with proper boxes wraped up.
If yoy need the link, let me know and i will send it to you.
Thanks.

Galax Tab Sprint Cable
I have the oem cable and this aftermarket cable from ebay.
I've been using the cable from ebay since I got it.
The cable works fine and is longer.
Again I have a Sprint Samsung Galaxy Tab

Just (arrived yesterday) got an after marked cable from ebay, just tried to use it and my Tab appears to shut down (black screen, no response from buttons etc).
Luckily I have my original cable with me but now that's doing the same (into a PC and mains).
Is this a massive coincidence of have I just goosed my beloved Galaxy Tab?
I bought a number of cheap retractable cables from ebay and they all work well for sync and charge.

so theres any diference between the samsung cable and a generic one or its just a problem picking up the one needed for the model u have?

I really hate that the OEM cables are so dang short. I'd love to find a couple of longer ones.
Sent from Galaxy Tab with XDA app
I use my OEM cable tho it is short, I use my USB cable extension from my logitech wireless mouse, It works just fine.
Of course when syncing I plug it direct to PC
I bought two different from DealExtreme a couple of months ago.
Both are working fine on my Dutch operator-free stock rom Tab.
The cables are a bit thinner then the original but for me works fine both charging and pc connection.
Shipping is free but some packages get lost "somewhere".
So it is just a risk you might want to take.
Only $ 2.90 to lose so for me better then eBay
Example: http://www.dealextreme.com/p/designer-s-data-cable-for-samsung-p1000-1m-length-51931
Bought there very cheap other accesoires as well:

When your at it I think you prefer to order a 2Amp car charger for example as well.
AliExpress also has lot's of items:

Be sure to use a "gold supplier" if you want to have more guarantee that it actually be delivered.

So I'm thinking about getting one from gearbest EU warehouse and guessing it won't come with a UK charger, what's the best way to charge without having multiple converters?
Would the phone run alright on three network?
Has anyone had one from them?

it only took 5 days to arrive via courier. i was able to check online the progress of where the parcel was. the company they used was called oneworld which i had to find on my own with a quick google search.
the only issue i have had today is setting it up LOL. the phone wont OTA update so i have spent the day trying to figure all that out and seeing as my last phone was the moto g 1st gen iv found it all a bit much for my first day but hopefully i will get into the swings of things. i have never rooted a phone before so any help would be appreciated. iv installed the updates manually by finding links on the web but my question is this, is the phone already rooted as it is the chinese A2001 MODEL. If its not will my updates have to be installed again if i root it?
also can someone give me a link to a easy guide for help please?

I can't help you with the phone specifically as I don't have it. Trying to work out if I'm getting this or the new nexus
Root is usually pretty simple, just a flash jver adb for recovery and then flash SuperSU or something
i want one two. So if you order from the EU warehouse, do you have to pay customs charges to UK and does it come with a UK plug. Thanks

No you shouldn't as it is coming from within the EU. I would be more worried about the lte support in the UK it might not support band 20 which is o2 / vodafone
