Can a XDA II battery works on IIi ??

Dear,
Does anyone know the answer?
Many THANKS!!!!
Yes they do, i use a couple of old XDA2 batteries, on mine with no problems, The only differance they last a little less due to the fact the xda2i battery is 1300ma and the XDA2 is 1200mha. On the same the XDA2i battery of corse works on the XDA2. Basically here with have a XDA2 and a 2i with chargers and batteries everywhere and both of us just use the nearest battery when needed

Tytn car charger?

Regarding my previous post about tytn charging problem, seems to be related with my car charger and my univeral wall charger. Now i'm using the "in the box" wall charger with no problem. But i need a car charger to use tomtom. Someone suggests me a 2A mini usb car charger.Where I can find it?
Thanx
Hi,
brodit have released in car holders with cig lighter chargers for the TyTn,
www.dsldevelopments.com (to buy), they are listed on the homepage. or www.brodit.com (to view), does anyone know from upgrading whether the xda mini s / mda vario charger is compatable, I have not yet had a Tytn to test yet.
Cheers,
Bryson
Thanx for the infos...i ordered brodit active holder in italy.
Both my wizard wall and car chargers give me some problem in charging my tytn.

Powermonkey

Hello everyone,
i have found in Internet a very interesting product to resolve the problem of our battery. As the title it is powermonkey by powertraveller, a portable charger.
The problem is that the powermonkey-eXplorer has an output Voltage from 4.5 to 5.5 V and a Max Current of 700mA.
Because of the HTC adapter is 5.5 V and 1 A, i was wondering if it would work with the diamond.
My suorce of doubt is that i don't think that the usb is able to work at that Voltage and Current.
So is there someone that has tecnical knowledges to say if it would work.
Thanks for the answers and hope to have proposed and interesting product.
Bye
I bought powermonkey explorer in the summer and I love it!
It is great for diamond, and every other device also.
If you buy one with solar charger, it isnt much of use if you dont live in sunny country or leave it charge always in car.
It was great though at Bulgaria charging my ipod, never had to use any other charger. And ofcourse you can charge powermonkey with usb or other ways.
I recommend it, even if it is little pricey.
It seems very tough and resisted some water and sand, hot weather.
tunppi how long does it takes to get fully charged?
I have just ordered one of these, I was going to get an extended battery, but love the way the Diamond is so thin, anyway this can also charge my PSP as well.
Will give a review once recieved
thanks... I even i'd like to know if we need for the diamond a special tip or we can use the standard miniusb that is included.
Bye

Car Charger (CC C100)

Hi guys,
Im facing a problem with the HTC original car charger (CC C100)... I have bought three chargers up until now and they all ended up fried!! Theiur output is 5V - 2A
I still want to get the HTC one but i dont know what the problem is! Im guessing the car is not the problem since im using an ipod charger with no issues. In addition i tried one of the chargers in another car with no luck.
I cant be that unlucky to get 3 faulty chargers. That only leaves me with a faulty phone or battery...right???
My phone's battery is the one that came in the box (35h00112-09M)...
Should there be any problems with this setup?? Has anyone faced this problem? Any solutions or suggestions??
Thanks...
sorry can i ask how much you paid for the car charger c c100? thanks..

Warning: HTC CC C200 (Genuine car charger)

Hi,
I bought one of this HTC CC C200, HTC genuine car charger for micro usb.
Problem is ... it does not tightly connect to the car power source (the cigarette lighter). It is very loose, you must push it downward to connect. Even then, it does not connect reliably.
I dont think this is an issue with my cars, I tested on my Peugeot 206 and Toyota Yaris. Both has the same problem like this.
Well, this is just fyi.
Wasted 22 euro
Yup. I know this one. Have seen chargers that don't fit the socket properly. The right charger should look more like this. http://i.expansys.com/i/b/b140838.jpg Take note of the collar just in front of the silver pin at the end. The collar holds the charger in place. I had an exact charger like this for my Diamond2 and it fitted perfectly. It's not the cars fault. All the sockets in the cars are the same - normalized.
Yes, that's the one. I have couple of them actually. But they are for mini-USB.
I was thinking to buy the converter from mini to micro. Then, I thought, Ok, new phone ... why not new charger? ... Then read suggestion to buy genuine HTC car charger. It turned out a mistake.
I think, this would be fine:

Yea, should work. But You need to be superduper sure about the Amps output of the charger. There are stories on the forums about chargers that are too weak to charge the phone during GPS + GPRS operation. I wonder if they would menage to charge a phone operating just the GPS (non GPRS related turn-by-turn navigation program). Anyway, in case You buy one of these, give us a call if it menages to charge the phone like it should.
Thanks, I read that thread, that's why I bought that HTC CC C200.
From the picture above, it said: Output 5VDC, 1A
Is this what we are looking for?
I know, it could be different in reality.
PS: Is there any tool to really measure this output?
i use this one :

About 12/13 €
I have the original charger and have no problems with it.
I have the HTC C200 unit and it fits perfectly in my cars lighter socket without any issues.

I have original HTC C200 charger and it fits without any problem in cars lighter - Ford C-max.
Do you need to really push it down?
Will it "click" to the lighter?
I tried to push it and I saw the "HTC" text turned on ... When I loose my hand, it turned off.
As I said, I was thinking this is an issue with my cars (Peugeot 206 station wagon, Toyota Yaris), but both have this loosen issue.
I purchased the HTC CC C200 also and have exactly the same problem. My car is a Peugeot 206. As you say, the charger needs to be pushed quite firmly in, and with mine, the side connectors need to be aligned also. Its okay when I've found the right position, but the slightest touch against the device can easily stop it from charging. I haven't decided yet whether to request a refund/exchange for something else.
Nope no need to manipulate it to keep charging. As soon as I plug it in the HTC light comes on and I can twist the unit and pull on the usb cable when its connected and it keeps charging.
Tried it in both a Mazda 6 and a Holden Commodore and fits snug in both cars.

Same issue with my Opel Corsa B.
In car charger
I bought this one:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=380220708739&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
For £1.95 including delivery.
Works a treat in my Skyline. (clang)
Guys,
I see some of you suffer from a loose connections with the cig charger.
The two metal trips on the side of the charger are meant to keep the charger in place. And its a contact point ofcourse. Its a kind of a spring. You can easilly try to use a scewdriver to flex/pull it a little bit more outward. It probably needs a little push like that for it to stick in its place.
I did this once and it worked after 3 minutes of fiddling.
good luck

I have the OEM charger and have no problem in my MINI
i got two original htc chargers and had the same problem ( wouldn't stay in charger and would pop out very easy ) i bent the metal clips and was ok .but then the charger wouldn't work .there is a problem with the cable at the mini usb end ( charger was for a diamond ). my problem is that i think they are original but really might be FAKE chargers
any feedback on the output of this charger? i've recently purchased the belkin 1amp usb charger however this is not sufficient to power the phone during heavy use (gps, sat nav, music player etc). can anyone confirm that the official one can?
I have the original charger as well. Just take some care when pushin it in and it works fine.
Can people tell which charger gives enough power to charge the Desire during heavy use (3G data+gps) ? My old one (Genuine HTC Pharos) is supposed to give 1A but my Desire keeps discharging (slowly but surely).
