Pin Outs - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories

Is anyone positive of the pinouts on the XDA II/IMate/MDA II? I have seen several posts that say they are the same as the XDA, however I have several different chargers and some work and others don't. But the ones that don't work will still work on the XDA. I've taken 3 of them apart to find the differences and in some of the cases none of the pinouts are the same from charger to charger. Just wanting some clarification as my GPS modified cable no longer works to charge my unit and was trying to correct that.

Would a sync/charger cable from a HP 2210/3900 work on XDA2

I have a feeling the pin outs are different from the IPAQ's to the XDA, can anyone confirm is the power pin outs are the same?
:roll:
They are not the same pinout, rewire as described below. Use a voltmeter to verify your connections before using.

Lost my XDAII adapter/charger....

Could I use this one? And still charge and sync with my cradle?

USB All in One Package is what I mean...
if it's made for the xda series
if it's made for the ipaq then no
they share the connector type but not the wireing
really on xpansys they said that I could use the 220v charger for the Imate?
And this product was also suitable for Ipaqs.
So i thought Imate=XDAII=Qtek2020
and if it's adaptor can chgarge an ipaq....the (much cheaper) Ipaq charger should be able to charge the Qtek 2020.
Could this be true?
according to this http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Connectors
the plug is the same, but they are connected different. So I would not advice it.
Would this be a better option?

It wont connect with the cradle..but without an extra battery it's not a must for me.
You have to understand any adapter that is made to work on the 1010, siemend sx56, and so on will not work on an xda 2 or 2020. It's very simple don't buy one unless it says it will work with your particular model.

xdaII bottom connector problem

hi im new and have a quick query im desperate for an xdaII and it seems ive found a bargain the problem is the connector on the base of the xdaII is not working so the phone will not charge and will not sync with pc on the cradle,battery has to be charged seperate from the pda,ive heard this is a common fault but is it easy to repair as i obviously would like to be able to charge it but more importantly i want to use it with a wired gps cradle for my tom tom navigator.
It all depends on how badly the port is broken.
Here is a page that shows diagrams ofthe connection pins, hopefully it will help you repair it.

Serial port dislodged..I-mate pc phone please help

G'day all
I'n need of desperate help as my serial port is stuffed, can someone please tell me if the male part of the connector is available to buy anywhere?
I know this is a tricky soldering job but a good friend has offered to help
Also I notice the rear backpack connector appears to route thru the same pins, does anyone know if this could be used to charge and sinc the phone, and if a connector is available.
Sorry for the gimme questions but I've searched all this site and many more with no luck.

extUSB Data Cable? Not needed anymore!!!

Last night when I was half a sleep I plugged into my HTCTouch Pro a standard USB cable in its ext USB port. It started charging and I went to bed. When woke up in the morning, I was shocked and I was a fraid some thing could have happened to the devive. I immediately unplugged it.
I checked the device and there was nothing wrong with it. I decided to test it further. So, I connected the "wrong cable" again and I could exchange files normally with this standard USB cable. I also used for active sync and Internet sharing!
I also connected the standard cable the Pro's charger and it worked like a breeze. This means that if you need an additional USB cable you can buy a cable at quarter the price of the damned "extUSB" one!
Hope I provided you with some useful trick.
Note: Use it at your own risk. But I tested it on my device with no problems. Perfect!
Sorry to ruin your excitement, but pretty much everyone knew this already. The ExtUSB is a standard USB plug but with extra pins on the edges that only ExtUSB cables have receptors for. They are just audio and video pins, and aren't required to charge to transfer data.
LMAO!!
You are the second one that made this "amazing" discovery!!

Third, actually, and my post didn't even seem to surprise anyone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444534
However, with a huge and complex forum like this, it's no wonder and no shame that things get discovered, asked or explained again and again. I'm sure there's a lot of people that didn't know this yet and found out by reading your post. So kudos to you.
First time I've seen it. Good to know for when I get mine in a week or so!
was it ever necasarry?
i used regular mini usb on my 8525 all the time
You guys got to be kidding... I couldn't even imagine that someone doesn't know about this already. Mini USB is the standard charger for most recent device these days.
I use the same mini USB (got it for $3) to charge my phone, my camera, my MP3 player and anything that I can plug in. A USB port from your computer have an output of 5Volt... so don't worry about it, it won't kill your device.
Welcome to the Forum, by the way
guys - give him the credit for his discovery. at least it helped me - i didnt know and to me he is the best inventor of 2008!!!!! Way to go abdelbaset0
Lol, this stuff gives me the giggles, personally, ive always used normal MiniUSB cables, ever since they brought out that connection on their devices, but the really funny thing is, when i was in a T-Mobile store once, the attendant genuinly thought it would damaged the device when i said i wanted a normal (miniUSB) car charger to use with my TyTN.... Still Chuckling now.

Sadly, because of reps like that, the various print materials, websites trying to overcharge for a product, and the general user's fear and lack of education....this is the sort of information that a lot of people will probably find to be wildly helpful, even profound.
When my girlfriend got some phone, not entirely sure which one (she's been through quite a few), she thought she had no choice but to use the charging brick and data cable that came in the box. She complained about a low battery one day while in my car. A quick look to see the shape of the port and I plugged in my car charger. She was in shock...and I was equally shocked that a very computer literate asian girl would feel comfortable installing windows but was baffled by the shape of a plug
