If there was some way to create an adapter that slid in flush with the phone, that would be perfect. Nothing extra to carry, just snap it in and you can use any mini/micro USB cable.

Get on that and let me know how it's coming along. ;)
[Streak 5 Accessories] Bohemian:
So did I see somewhere that the Samsung Galaxy Tab will be PDMI? If so Here is an accessory from it to USB http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/30/samsung-galaxy-tab-accessories-may-include-bluetooth-stylus-and/
[Streak 5 Accessories] Radimus:
now that will be very handy... keep one of those handy and most cable issues will go away
[Streak 5 Accessories] ricoks:
I saw that and the accessory port looked like a PDMI - I hadn't read anything, tho.

Perhaps we will see more as more devices have the plug.

perhaps Dell is on the leading edge more than we thought!!!
[Streak 5 Accessories] Troute:
PDMI has been around for a couple of years but no one has used it until now, the Samsung connector certainly looks like a PDMI but it hasn't even been released yet so there's no way to tell for sure.
[Streak 5 Accessories] Linuxslate:
I saw that accessory for the Tab on engadget.

They copied me !! :):rolleyes:
[Streak 5 Accessories] esokolov:
Raw PDMI connector Part No.

I asked the dude who made his own PDMI to USB adapter if he has seen some markings inside the connector he used, no reply.

Could it be the Molex (or whoever is the manufaturer) part no is mentioned in the official PDMI specs?
[Streak 5 Accessories] Charles::
I checked DigiKey and Newark for "PDMI" and got zilch.
[Streak 5 Accessories] Linuxslate:
I'm "the Dude", and no, I did not see any part numbers/etc.

I've been searching, an I have not found any source for cable or dock style connectors. All I can find is the JAE DD1 connectors (iPhone).

I have not submitted any actual supply inquiries because I'm not actually a manufacturer, and I'm not likely to start a new career selling a few dozen cables and docks to Streak Owners.

(I'm not implying they've only sold "a few Dozen" Streaks, but not all Streak owners even care what connector it uses. With new devices supporting PDMI. I'm sure the big manufactures will start making cables, but right now total sales of any particular PDMI cable or dock would just not be that large.)
[Streak 5 Accessories] ricoks:
suposedly the Slacker G@ home dock works with PDMI and has charging pin-out compatibility.

anyone here use one?
[Streak 5 Accessories] Fazziebear:
I think if rather have a pdmi to hdmi or even better dvi, so that icould connect to a monitor and use like a laptop
[Streak 5 Accessories] Troute:
One post I read the poster got it to work but only after dismantling it, the dock casing apparently doesn't allow the streak pins to make contact.

Can't even source Slacker gear here in the UK to try it.
[Streak 5 Accessories] upriverpaddler:
I have the slacker dock, but I cant seem to get it apart without damaging the plastic. I don't see screws under the rubber feet. Any advice?
[Streak 5 Accessories] ricoks:
I bought one. It works fine without taking it apart, but ONLY for charging (which isn't all that bad, the main reason why I bought the thing). All I had to do was remove the rubber feet next to the PDMI where the streak rests - makes contact enough.

Now the question is how to get the Audio to work - the Streak speaker sux bad!!! :(

I've thought about buying another for in the car, but not sure how strong the plug is to hold the phone in a car, as there is no other support other than gravity onto the dock.............

any ideas??
[Streak 5 Accessories] Troute:
Add extra support...
[Streak 5 Accessories] ricoks:
That's quite an impressive response. care to enlighten a way to do that?

anyone else have one wanna chime in?
[Streak 5 Accessories] Keethos:
Would you guys mind posting some detailed pictures of the dock with and without the phone please?
[Streak 5 Accessories] Desibouy:
@LinuxSlade,

Please could you provide pictures or diagrams so we can make our own mini adapter?

Thanks

@Others,

yep would be interested in this dock :)

pictures?

Thanks
[Streak 5 Accessories] Reclaim:
+1 on this!
[Streak 5 Accessories] Linuxslate:
The pin-out for PDMI is on my site (or easy to find with a quick Google search). The pin-out for Mini USB is also easily found with a Google search.

Here's a link:

http://pinouts.ru/Slots/USB_pinout.shtml

(The pin they mark "x" is the OTG pin)

Make sure you are looking at the connectors the right way.

Now just match up the pins for each function.

Sorry to be sort of a snob, but if you haven't done stuff like this before, you probably will not be successful even with more details. If you have, and you have the right equipment and tools, you can probably come up with your own design that's far better than what I have done.

Electrical or Physical damage to the Streak is a real possibility.
[Streak 5 Accessories] ricoks:
someone said they modded the Slacker G2 dock to work. My 2nd streak worked, but all streaks since (i've had to replace some under warranty) have not worked. It is apparent that the QC on the Streak is not the best.

for those that have modded the Dock, HOW did you mod it to make it work.

I don't want to be stuck with the dock and have it not work with my streak (since i have one that did, and it was great for on the nightstand at home and desk at work)
[Streak 5 Accessories] -EAD-:
I know this is an older thread, but being a bit of an audioholic I thought I would answer this question if anyone else stumbled on to this thread like I did.

The 3.5mm jack utilizes some form of internal amplification that is intended (most likely) to drive headphones that are connected to the device. That amplification will have influence on the audio that comes out of the device in the form of frequency bias and distortion of the amplification.

So when you connect the device via the 3.5mm jack to another device that has amplification for audio such as a home stereo or car stereo... the second device will further amplify the frequency bias and distortions that the source device created. Not only that, the second amplification will add its own frequency bias and distortion.

The PDMI audio output should be a direct signal that bypasses any internal device amplification and should inturn reduce the amount of distortion in the audio.

iPods are a great and easy way to test this yourself... the accessories are cheap and easy to find. Connect your iPod to your stereo via the 3.5mm jack and then through a dock and you can hear the difference.
[Streak 5 Accessories] joihan777:
I found this link: http://www.firstphoneshop.co.uk/dell-streak.shtml that states it has a PDMI- USB cable.

Any of you UK folks familiar with this outfit?
[Streak 5 Accessories] Troute:
In terms of snog/marry/avoid they come down firmly on the avoid side.

Been around and ripping off the British public for years as a little bit of web research will show you.

Guy's,

First of all, i follow XDA for a wile now and found this threat.

I definitely don't want to spam but I'm selling a Dell Streak to female mini-usb cable on Ebay (item number; 280641434500).

It works great with my old HTC usb charger, low cost (Chinese) car chager and the cheap usb to mini usb data cables.

If an admin think that it's spam please let me know! i only want to share this cable with you.

I have some pictures of the 100% working cable but due security reasons i can post pictures after 8 posts on this forum.
[Streak 5 Accessories] marvin02:
First the price is high (about $18), second your auction states you only ship to the Netherlands, third you should post in the XDA Marketplace.
[Streak 5 Accessories] tdjnl2006:
Marvin,

The high price is because the low ordered quantity. When i sell it a lot i can order more what will lower the price.

I'm also busy with Dell Streak dockingstations. The sample costs for making a dock are very high. A part of the high cable price will be reserved for researching, design, and making of a dock.

It look like there are enough people who would like to buy it because i get a lot of requests at the moment (true Ebay).

Auctions is changed with worldwide shipping.

I will post a it also on XDA Market.
[Streak 5 Accessories] stevenlong:
I've ordered one and will let everyone know what it looks like when it arrives.
[Streak 5 Accessories] tdjnl2006:
Because there a few people from this site that send me ebay-messages, because the auction was ended (out of stock) hereby the new auction.

Ebay auction: 280700995009

The price is a little bit lower now!
[Streak 5 Accessories] undrwater:
Can you describe what is enabled with this cable? Is it just charge / sync? Any other possible features such as otg or audio (assuming the software supported it)?
[Streak 5 Accessories] tdjnl2006:
No other possibilitys than charging and syncing.

Its for the people who got a lot of normal USB cables, normal USB chargers, carchargers etc.

They are trying to make cables for audio and HDMI
[Streak 5 Accessories] x1afan:
USB end of cable suitable as keyboard input?

As per my user name I currently have a SE-X1a, but a Dell Streak "is in the mail", because my eyes are not what they used to be.

I'm curious, maybe a dumb question, but I have googled around and not found a clear answer: could you take the USB end of the PDMI cable (which is plugged into the Streak), put a gender-change-adapter on it and hook that up to a (externally powered?) USB hub and start hooking up keyboard, flash drives etc.? or directly one item? Now, wouldn't that be worthwhile? Is it "only" a software problem?
[Streak 5 Accessories] tdjnl2006:
The USB is full connected. Out of the box, i think, the Dell Streak doesn't support external USB products. I don't have any gender changers available over here so i cant test it.
[Streak 5 Accessories] marvin02:
Yes you can use a gender changer/adapter to enable the use of non-streak chargers and cables. I bought a 1 foot cable from eBay to use with an adapter. This works for charging and connecting to your PC.

Connecting mass storage devices isn't supported. There have been some posts and info about this previously, your favorite search engine should help you find more info.
[Streak 5 Accessories] x1afan:
Thanks for the answers

Thanks for the info tdjnl2006 and especially marvin02. It is a shame, to paraphrase: What will they NOT think of next?:rolleyes:

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Piny12:
Got this from another board (AndroidPIT - German)

A user got a newsletter from Samsung with new accessories:

The whole newsletter

Power-Pack EBB-U10:
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] tr1n1r3dman:
The Samsung I9000 Galaxy S is one of the most powerful mobile phones on the market. To use this power to move even more comprehensive, it is with the Power Pack EBB-U10 perfectly matching battery extension. The Samsung I9000 Galaxy S is there simply implanted "and already it has enough power for up to an additional 8.5 hours of talk time or up to 500 hours standby. The testers are, moreover, agreed by the Bank: The Samsung I9000 Galaxy S is found in the top rankings ever before and need no other phone to hide. Example is the good test results with CHIP, and connect online kosten.de.

The google translation starts of fine... it gets all crazy at the end lol. Cool though, not exactly sure how it works...
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Piny12:
My translation

It works just like every iPhone Batterycase. A battery is built in the case. It connects to the phone via the USB port.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] emelie:
that sounds nice! hopefully it's going to be cheap and available soon ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Daemos:
I wonder how much thicker this makes the phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Piny12:
The weight is 70 grams. Making the whole thing 188 grams heavy.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Ancient_One:
iPhone 4 is 137 grams total.

I like the concept and the fact it doubles as a case for the back and sides fo the Galaxy S. It looks very nice and extends the overall usage time of the device. So plus plus in my books.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] The.Opethian:
Here's to hoping it doesn't cost TOO MUCH and that it doesn't hinder the 3.5 socket. I was waiting for an official battery to be released out there, then they announce something better.

This may actually make the phone feel sturdier and protect the back. It can also make a more explosive phone LOL
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] alovell83:
Galaxy S Power Pack Provides 8.5 Hours of Extra Talk Time

Not for me, but just trying to spread the word in case anyone desires/needs more juice and doesn't like carrying extra batteries.

EBB U10

i must say it's a pretty sweet design compared to the ugly Mugen solution

I want to buy it now! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] snapper.fishes:
Look closely at the case. There's a major hole on the top right corner of it. I wonder what's that for.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] snapper.fishes:
There's already a thread about this. Use that one.

It's for the TV-antenna
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] MagicOnline:
to my knowledge in the top right corner of the korean version of SGS there is a antenna (tv or something). the battcase (and all other hardcases) has therefore at this place a hole for better reception. now if u look to the photo u see through this hole and u see another hole, that one is for the cam.

lets hope u unterstand what i mean... :D

OT:

anyways, i still don't understand why samsung placed its usb connection in the top left corner ... this is a real hardware design mistake - like the iphone 4 antenna design.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Piny12:
No, it's definetly not. This is a german ad. The german, e.g. international, version doesn't have the antenna.

I assume it's a keychain.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] decepticon:
I agree but unlike the iPhone at least this one isn't service impacting...just an inconvenience
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] snapper.fishes:
That's a massive hole for a keychain.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] heygrl:
It's for the antenna, they're not going to make 2 different kinds just so some can have the hole.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Roy Ngan:
what is the acceptable price for this device? USD20?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] heygrl:
Yeah, not a chance in hell.

Think more along the lines of $50+
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] poolcin:
That major hole is for the camera, guys ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] dakine:
You are looking through the antenna hole at the camera hole.

Now how does that thing actually connect to the battery contacts?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Piny12:
It doesnt connect directly to the battery contacts. Its charging the phone via usb like an ac adaptor!
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] dagrim1:
Meaning you have to take it off to charge it or connect the phone to the computer? Or is there another connection for that in the expansionpack.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Piny12:
Most likely the Battery Pack will have a microUSB slot to get charged and connecting to a pc.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] mickeko:
Yes, I'm assuming that's what you can see on the picture of the case without the phone in (look closely, mid right edge :D).
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Piny12:
Oh yes youre right! Didnt see that before!

Good eyes you have ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] mickeko:
Yes, I must have. Clearly visible on my 65" HDTV. :D

(I'm really using a Samsung SyncMaster 206BW for my computer. It's not the latest of the latest, but my SGS is a perfect match designwise. ;) )
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Ancient_One:
It's ashame they didn't go as far as to place it at the bottom to allow for docking vertically.

I guess on the side gan work for us if we can get docks with support this change.

I'm liking it all the more.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] ConceptVBS:
The little tab on the upper left corner is where the micro-use interfaces with the battery case.

This is a much better solution than the god awful third party MEGA battery replacement.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] rongden:
Anyone know when it'll be released?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] kizer:
Probably months after they finally get the rest of the shown items like the Desk doc and car dock that has been listed on their website. :D

I'd like to buy all 3 if/when they ever come out.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] rkantos:
It's for the GPS antenna..
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] The.Opethian:
Now imagine if they included a gyroscope within the battery pack, also that shake and charge technology. Now what if they do an Apple and claim that there is an antenna issue and give this out for free?!

Regardless of what happens, I will be looking forward to attaching one of these to my device. But wait! What about my lovely orange mesh case...
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] dakine:
I dont see any specs, does this double the battery life?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] evil-doer:
uh.. no.

its for a tv tuner antenna that some models include.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] LostAlone:
Hope this comes with a belt clip attached. If so then you can sign me up for one. If not then I'll have to pass.

Maybe I'm weird, I don't like having my device in my pocket rubbing up against keys and lighters and such. Needs to be clipped somewhere safe, and that goes double with a charger since it needs to be in the case for a long time.

I'm still wishing that samsung had put charging points on like blackberries have, leading to elegant CM Fuel style charges and charging pods. *sigh*
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] snapper.fishes:
Don't want a belt clip attachment. They always make the case unnecessarily thick even if you remove the clip.

That said, I probably won't buy this anyway. That kick stand case in the other thread looks far more delicious...
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] andrewluecke:
Actually, if you look at it, it could be a bad rendering and it might be on the back (for the camera)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] madduckuk:
camera? :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] snapper.fishes:
No no. The small hole inside the big hole is the camera hole. I am asking what the bigger hole is.

After consulting some korean website, I found out that the TV antenna is indeed on the top right corner. The needed a massive space for it because the antenna can rotate, just like the old style radios with the metal antenna.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] LostAlone:
Different strokes for different folks :p. But if its not going to protect my screen and means I can't use a case that does then I want it able to live outside of a pocket. Normally mine goes on my jacket inside pocket.

However, I do agree about the thickness, and thats why I really loved my casemate fuel for my old berry. When you are using the device, then its literally nothing. When you aren't, then its clipped and with the screen protected and was so easy to unclip one handed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] EarlZ:
I seem to be missing the point of why the usb is on the top left corner a design flaw.. can anyone explain ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] All Day On XDA:
I suspect people believe that if the usb was on the bottom of the phone, it would make vertical docking far more practical.

Is there any word on a release date for this power pack?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] lsquare:
Has there been any new information on this battery?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Nitephyre:
I like the idea of this case, although at first I was trying to see where it connected, but that's what the tab is for obviously:D

While at first I thought the top-left USB was strange, having seen their docks I changed my mind. They're obviously aiming its use at widescreen video playback etc when docked (in fact, that's how all video plays by default) :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] AllGamer:
some times the belt clip also makes the case dangerous to the screen

never face the screen inward where the belt clip is

a few times i broke some screen because of that

always face the screen outward
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Aqrab:
but this battery using the micro USB hole ?

you cant use the micro USB to connect to your PC if u using the battery ????
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] mazroui:
I know its a power pack , and seriously started wondering how it will really affect the battery life, im guessing 8 hours straight on a phone call is a little too much :confused: .

the size seems a little big :eek: if not ok for that extra squeez of battery life ;)

would of preferred just a battery but it also has a cool factor to it ;) .

A flaw in the design would be the top right corner with the hole and the unusable micro-usb, if only there were diff versions of the power pack to solve those issues for the different versions of the SGS around the world :rolleyes: .

im just guessing the micro-usb is somehow related to the led flash on the back of the power pack :D , but with that option will it be an always on solution when the cam is started? or will a software update handle the missing lighting option in the camera software probably included in the official froyo thats going to be released soon.

anyways, will keep an eye on any updates as this power pack will really be useful due to the really bad battery time on my SGS i9000 :( ( my fully charged battery all night long will last me till 5-6 pm and thats with the switching phone off and further charging the phone while off to 100% than starting it ) .

I seriously cant believe that the stores here in the UAE are all out of this phones accessories like cases/ earphones and stuff including original battery/chargers , accidentally broke the original charger trying to squeez it in a big wall socket and now using my brothers Blackberry charger till i can find a better/or the original one :mad:
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] kenkiller:
There's another microusb port on the middle of the length of the pack.

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] PhilPassmore:
Price being touted around other forums is about 70 Euro, so about $85 US.

Apart from the 'knob' on the top, it actually looks to add less round the edge than the Silicon skin type case I use on mine.

I will be interested to know if your standard phone 'back' remains in situ when you use this, because taking it off seems the only sensible way to make this a reasonable depth. YMMV.

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Beards:
Suprised nobody has picked up on the fact this battery case has on the back '3 x Notification LED's'.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Piny12:
I assume these only indicate the loading status of the battery pack.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] acarnut:
I wouldn't use the phone without a case anyway, and that might add about 30 grams. I plan to buy one.
