[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] CanyTech:
Mini-USB extension cable

I found a single source at

http://www.pc-mobile.net/gugf.htm. It's item number CMUE about half way down the page.

I also found some folks who seem to be prepared to make almost anything at http://www.cypressindustries.com/contact/index.html

Best regards,

Mini USB extension cable

I had the same problems finding a mini usb extension. Then e-bay came to the rescue! This guy

http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/techno_toys/

has just what you need, a 1m long mini usb extension cable for less than £10.00 !

Cheaper and faster than waiting for it to arrive from Hong-Kong:)

Thanks all, google a mini usb extender and this was the first thing that came up. Can't believe these cables are so rare!

FYI my supplier was Keven from Techno Toys on ebay UK http://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZtechno_toys
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] Ray_jai:
those links you posted don't have USB mini female to USB mini male.

I only need it to be 3 inches.

also, would that 3 in 1 work for my wizard?

Thanks!

This is a link to the current listing (as of 11 Feb 08):

mini usb extansion cable on e-bay

3 were listed, but 2 have already gone. They are 1.2m long too, not the 30cm that you need, but maybe you can cut/re-solder it? They are pretty rare though, so not sure I would risk it! :)
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] Schooleydoo:
These wont carry the audio though. They are only 5 pin and carry data only. Ive got one of these cables and the 3 in 1 adaptor. The adaptor is extusb and has 11 pins, and this cable is regular usb with only 5 pins. Not only that, they dont actually fit together as a male extusb is a slightly different shape to the female regular miniusb. Obviously Female Extusb to male miniusb would work, but this cable is the wrong way round for that.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] nobrakes:
made my own

I was also looking for one to use in my car. Couldn't find any so I made one. Used a vga cable, cut the htc usb charger/2.5 headphone splitter that came with my touch, and soldered the cables together. I'll post pics tomorrow if i get a chance. Btw, i got lucky, because while trying to solder one of the last cables, the yellow cable that connects to the end of the 2.5 headphone jack came off. Luckily, it wasn't the cable that was for left or right channel.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] Schooleydoo:
I couldnt find an 11 core cable small enough to look good. VGA cable isnt too thick though... tempting.

Nice, I wish i had soldering skills. everytime i try to solder, the solder never bonds.

I tried heating up the wirers, but the solder always bonds to the tip or combine with the solder coil again.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] plinkykev:
OK, sorry, I had used it OK with my Motorola phone, and that did the audio OK. Didn't realise there were more pins in the PDA cable.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] peteragreenley@hotmail.co:
11 pin extension cable

how many wires are needed for power and Stereo?

I am Guessing 1 for right, 1 for left, 1 for Power, and for ground. I am asking because I want to make my own, but I do not want a big diameter cable.

I have the 3 in 1 splitter, so it has everything I need except for length. Is a 4 wire cable all it really needs?

Anyone?...
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] Eggbert:
Here is another source for Mini USB Extension

Man are these cables ever hard to find. I have been looking for such a cable for a long time since I recently found this other guy on ebay. He has 2m (6ft) and 3m (9ft) versions, all USB 2.0 compatible: kabelbaron on ebay I think he ships worldwide, too...

(I think you can also get to his recent items through http://www.kabelbaron.de).
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] elziko:
They look like standard 5 pin extensions to me.

People in this thread are looking for extUSB extenders that have 11pins.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] kanisdragon:
What works for me is to melt a tiny bit of solder on the tip, then touch that melted solder to the wires. It will transfer heat to the wires and you can add more solder from another angle. Wipe the tip on a wet sponge after every use. This leaves a thin layer of clean solder on the tip. If you let the tip go uncleaned for too long it turns totally black and conducts heat poorly. If you buy tip cleaner you can sometimes get the black off.

Also, if you have tiny things to connect and little space to work, put a bit of solder on both things first, then touch them together and the heat will transfer into both of them, melting them together. Keeping them steady after you pull the tip away is key to a strong join. If they're trying to pull apart as the solder cools, the solder will look more dull than shiny and be easy to break.

Also, be absolutely sure you get 63/37 (63% tin, 37% lead) solder instead of lead-free because lead-free doesn't melt till a much higher temperature and that's more likely to damage your electronics. Also, I could barely melt the lead-free solder with three different irons I tried and it was very hard to make it bond to things.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solder for more.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] kanisdragon:
USB power uses a +5V and ground pin on the top row.

Audio uses 3 more pins along the bottom: left, right, and audio ground. There's also two mic pins along the bottom you might want to tap into.

See http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ExtUSB
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] bernabap:
I found a good source for mini usb extensions of all kinds. This site really was the best site for USB and Firewire cables. I got mine today.

Edited: This cables are 5pin, just for data and power not for audio.

http://www.usbfirewire.com/
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] EngineerMind:
The only problem is that the cable probably only extends the standard 5 pins of a standard micro USB connector. It probably doesn't extend the extra 6 pins that HTC uses to carry the audio to external headsets.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] bernabap:
You are right, I had not thought about it. So I see the only way would be to build a cable as described above?

Hi guys,

I am new here and you might have gotten this question a thousand times.... but please hear me out, I have gotten myself a S2 I9100, true, and threads are EVERYWHERE on how to upgrade it from Gingerbread to Jellybean. Problem is I came late. ALL the links that I accessed for XWLSS Jellybean 4.1.2 Firmware are expired. Same goes for the drivers. It seems they were posted on a hotfile.com site and I suppose they've been taken down... What can I do? Please help me. Where can I get the Jelly Bean file so I can upgrade? Thanks a lot...

I have finally moved on from my GS3 to a GS5 and as a few others I am dissapointed in the camera app - specifically the video portion. I have read around about the low light issues but my biggest issue is shooting video in lower light. My old GS3 which my wife now uses turns the LED on if flash is enabled on the camera whilst shooting a video but I cannot figure this out for the GS5 - anyone care to help?

thankyou

flash issues

So I found out the real issue is that the flash module is broken! I have tried the following:

- reset filters

- force close and app data in camera app

- full factory reset

- Super LED app and stock torch app

None of these have worked, cant find a teardown for the phone so I think I am out of options. The HR sensor works but the flash I am guessing is the big white square next to it.....any other ideas? there is a loud rattle coming from the area, but this seemed normal according to a few other posts.....
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] rwagner74:
I have searched about the HTC One® M8 Harman/Kardon® edition, and need a link of what others are doing to root , roms, and not harm the features. Rooting is my main concern, unlocked, and s-off. I know backing up my firmware can take me back to kardon. But I have a love for roms, the challenge of tweaking, trying our great devs hard work,. I don't know if rooting knowledge here will damage my device (even though we are all sprint. The help from senior devs and members to link me in the right direction would be a godsend. Just bought my device new for 629., and a brick would kill me before the wife. any advice would be great full. The harmon kodon makes me worried because its barely talked about. Need a basic link to s off and unlock the loader, and root. Recovery....im stumped. Will appreciate any feedback... My htc max was a small project. This version of the m8 has my head depressed.

Look at this site. I also have the hk version:

To s-off, you may have to use the sunshine method (cost 25 bucks I believe). The firewater s-off method worked for me but I hear it doesn't work for the newer phones.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
The latest version of Sunshine will also unlock the bootloader so you don't even have to fool with HTC Dev. Also, as a FYI, there is no difference rooting the M8 HK edition versus the standard M8.

Hi, sorry for my english.

I have a little problem with my gear, first version.

i have tizen upgrade and my problem is when the display lights there is a little delay,practically displayed for a split second of time when I turned off the display and then the right time.Is imperceptible but this is a bit fastidioso.I used the translator and may not be entirely clear.

In italian

Salve a tutti... ho cercato su tutta la rete ma non ho trovato niente per il mio problema.

In pratica non è un vero e proprio problema, è più un fastidio, mi spiego.

Ho un gear prima versione aggiornato a tizen,tutto bene ma ho notato che con gli orologi analogici o digitali c'è un piccolo ritardo nell'aggiornare l'ora da quando si accende il display con pulsante oppure con movimento.

In pratica si accende il display e per una frazione di secondo appare l'ora precedente allo spegnimento e subito dopo si aggiorna all'ora giusta.

Ho provato anche con orologi digitali che analogici, praticamente scaricati quasi tutti dallo store ed anche quelli creati con Watch style.

Tutti hanno lo stesso problema, chi più chi meno..... l'unico che non lo fa è il primo della lista, quello stock digitale, quando si accende lo schermo appare subito l'ora giusta.

Possibile che nessuno abbia il mio stesso problema su internet ???

Ho cercato sia in italiano che in inglese... dappertutto ma nessuno parla di questo fastidio.

Saluti.

I mentioned the issue I am having in the "GPS" not working thread. But as my GPS is working fine I thought I would post this separately.

When the watch is bluetooth linked to my Note 4, the navigation app works fine. However, the navigation app is also supposed to work without a phone if there is a SIM card in the watch.

When I start the navigation app, it uses the GPS built-in to the watch and comes up correctly with my street name. I then ask it to navigate to a particular address, which it also finds, and it displays the route on the phone.

The problem is the "Play >" button is greyed out. When the watch is connected to the phone, the play button is blue and I can click it. But when the watch is standalone I cannot. Another poster says they can get the Play button to turn blue. The only difference is they have never connected their watch to a phone and also have an older firmware due to the fact they can't update it without a phone either.

Can anyone else get the Blue Play button to activate when the watch is standalone navigation after searching for a route?
[Samsung Gear S] mitchellvii:
The problem I am having is that it will only give me walking directions on the phone and not driving directions. Have no idea?
[Samsung Gear S] jonstatt:
At the moment the app is only designed to provide walking and public transport navigation. It does not support driving. But you have no problem to get the Play button to turn blue after the list of directions appear when using the watch on its own with no phone?

Apparently interacting with certain settings adds them to the Quick Settings screen.

Which can be okay: I went into the "tethering & portable hotspot" setting and turned on hotspot to see if it worked. (Worked!) Then I noticed a new hotspot toggle on my quick settings. Fine. Maybe useful.

BUT... then I selected and turned on "color inversion" from the accessibility settings section. Woah. Trippy. But probably won't ever need to do that again. Except when I swipe down from the top to bring up the quick settings, I now have a "color inversion" quick setting toggle taking up valuable space and cluttering up the page.

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Antiga Prime:
After rooting an GT-i8160l with this method, and even after flashing with Odin I was able to enter Recovery with the 3-button combination. Later on I tried accessing both recovery and download mode, and every time the phone reboots normally into Android.

I already performed a factory reset and it's still not working. Nonetheless, using Reboot Menu (no ads) app from the Play Store, I was able to reboot both into Download mode and Recovery. The problem is that I want to flash Android 4.1.2 with Odin, which is easy since I can get into Download Mode from Android, but after that I'd need most likely wipe data/cache from recovery, which isn't possible since the 3-button combination isn't working.

Hi hopefully I can explain this correctly… I found all the hancom apk files in one pf the previpus roms (s tab) in the root explorer.
