Is there an ultimate mobile phone/PDA? - General Topics

I know that this may sound stupid but
(just like you will travel around the world with one phone)I know that there is not much ,or none manufacturer that will make a phone like that,they need to keep people buying their accessories
to be like a PC
with USB for adding stuffs(like a: usb hub/splitter,cam,bluetooth,IR,speakers,WiFI,GPS,keyboard ....)
some standardized charger(like on laptops),
normal headphones/mic jack for use as handsfree
And if possible to be idiot/drop/water proof
maybe with builtin IR,bluetooth,WiFI,touchscreen,memory slot)
Something like the asus phones,they have a headphones jak,and a USBmini for charging and connecting to a PC
P.S.But for that you will need something like Win98 or DSLinux
it will be nice if it is something between Nokia N95 and 5500,and maybe Thuraya
P.P.S.My choice for a laptop like that would be XO they are like a cheap version of the though book and if you brake it it won't cost you 3000$

i was asking for something like HTC Shift(i haven't even heard of it,untill i read someone post here),but smaller
but after that i thinked a little and decided that it will be best to have an XO or toughbook with PCMCIA or USB GSM adapter and maybe some normal phone
WOW this will be 1/2 the price of the Shift even with a solar panels
Thanks anyway
Off topic:
Is there a PDA that can run on a normal os like the Shift ???????????????????????

Does this come with a belt clip?

What belt clip?
It's not mine these are just pics from the net

very similar to whats included with the tilt..its a non standard htc usb plug with an extended adapter on it which has on one side what looks like a normal headphone jack and a mini headphone jack and on the end has the usb..ive included a pic of it..im assuming this is standard accessory equipment included with the ATT FUZE sooo i was looking on ebay for a video out cable and came upon this
http://cgi.ebay.com/TOUCH-PRO-TV-VI...0|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318|301:1|293:1|294:50
and ive included a pic
but it looks like you can plug it into what i thought were audio jacks and achieve video out? because i have these cables laying around (from video cameras and stuff) and i tried them just now and i dont get any results..any ideas on how this is being pulled off?
The one on eBay is a modified dongle. And the guy probably did it using the thread found in xda-dev! I will bet you that! LOL! But, if you had searched, you would have found this thread here.
derrrrrrr..yah sorry about not searching..just thought it was interesting and found a makeshift on on ppcgeeks really didnt think about searching lol

Well Pazookie, good for you getting your Fuze as a replacement. Didn't cost you a cent. Congrats and I hope you enjoy it. As for the Bold, I brought that the day it came out and took it back the following day. LOL The screen is awesome but I guess I'm just that WM kinda guy. I hated the BB format espically for email and text messages. Again, that's me and I sure it's that I'm so used to the WM platform. I know many people that would give their arm before lossing their BB. LOL
Have a GREAT holiday my Firend.

thanks..merry christmas.//and about the fuze..i have never been more pleased with a device..it went above and beyond my expectations..i thought i was going to have to settle for less buttons and all that stuff but i have found the workarounds easier..i have found it to be more responsive and accurate as in screen taps and typing with the on screen SIP and pocketgba works again (on my tilt once wm6.1 came out that gba emulater stopped working). I LOVE this thing lol oh yah its built tuff too..i dropped it at work the other day (idiot coworker bear hugged me from behind thus flinging the fuze out of my hand). It hid concrete from about 4 feet and the back cover flew off and the battery popped off and only a smal scratch/paintsmudge on the bottom right corner (top half of device). Hope you have a great new year

Solar powered charger for n1?

I use to have one for my old 3gs and was wondering if i can get on for my nexus one? Thanks
http://www.solio.com/charger/
@jairuncaloth Those are a bit much I haven't tired any of these chargers but the prices are a bit more reasonable. www.solarstylemiami.com
Mine was a gift. It's pretty handy.
Another vote for the Solio. A pricy but amazing device, I never go anywhere without mine
+2 for Solio...the best functionally!
Which one of those solar chargers are compatible with Nexus one?

Solio usually comes with all kinds of adaptors for all phones. Check their website for specifics.
I don't know if they have a microusb tip yet. That's pretty easy to work around though. Mine came with a standard usb female port. I can plug the N1's usb cable right into it.

I ordered an A97 tip cox it looks like extUSB. I'll let you guys know is that the one after I got it.
I have a MicroUSB for my solio, bought it straight off the main solio site with a few other tips
http://www.fommy.com/view-full-page.asp?divid=Google&model=Google+Nexus+One+PB99100&skuno=83981
this one seems/looks nice but i heard fommy.com is a bad company to deal with
Yes! It is A97 tip!
I just got the tip and it works like a charm!
Just curious....Where do you use these?
I just can't imagine being somewhere I would sit long enough to use this that I wouldn't have access to AC or USB.

Back Packing, Hiking, Boating, Camping, Traveling, Emergencies (ie. power outage), etc.
you could also use this if you manage to already have a mini usb adapter

Ah...No wonder I couldn't think of uses...These are all things I'd have to get-up and move around to do! My idea of roughing-it would be switching from 3G to Edge!!

Cradle

Is anyone using a cradle for Optimus One? I was wondering if other phone cradles will fit?
You can always use an universal one like this one,but the original LG SDT-140 is very very beautiful..although a little pricey too (orange sells it for 18 pounds and I've seen it on ebay too at the same price)
The original cradle is not just beautiful but also of solid build.
Shiny and solid, what a joy to use.
But expensive....
Cradle, where to buy?
Cannot find LG SDT-140 on ebay.
Where could I buy it? I am no Orange customer.
Verizon
I have an optimus t and use the Verizon Vortex dock...it works beautifully and looks decent also.

Hi,
You can find it if you search for item number 400192261278.
Okay I have the cradle but I don't think it's worth the money. It doesn't do much.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
I was thinking of getting one but if I will be using any case then it will be a hassle just to remove it & put the phone on the cradle.

Using Dealextreme plexiglass-cell-phone-holder sku33310
and glueing the micro-usb connector in place would be a cheaper solution.
Thanks rikux! It seems a cool & inexpensive alternative.

why is it so expensive i realy want one
Will this work?
dealextreme.com/p/usb-ac-charger-adapters-for-htc-desire-g7-eu-plug-100-240v-40145
It's intended for a HTC Desire but as far as I see, the micro usb conector is right in the middle, in the same spot as our P500.

Probably won't.
Because for Desire this connector is much closer to the back lid:

Bluetooth car Dock-Parrot Minikit-NICE! Will it work?

Has anybody tried this vehicle bluetooth dock? Looks pretty bad ass and would work with future phones. Maybe this could be my last dock for a while? Just wondering about the volume rocker on the sensation. Looks like accessing the charging port might not be an issue.
Looks well made and not really a bad price when you price the official sensation dock (that doesnt have bluetooth)
What do you think?

That's a good price, was looking at that but was expensive, better the the OEM dock.. Parrot is a good Bluetooth brand, and it should work, don't see why it wouldnt...

Looking at the pics makes me miss my n1 a little lol...
But personally I have never used parrot, but looks like a good alternative. But this tread reminded me about my BlueAnt S4 that I have stashed away because it didn't play well with my Nexus one with MIUI.
Just ordered it along with a sonos s5 zone player and zone bridge.. gotta love wireless
That product screams "Break into this car and steal me... im worth it"

Yes the wonderful N1. I ordered a new one from ebay for $250 bout a week or so ago, gave my original to my girl when i got the EVO 4G. It looks like the senation may spend a few days down being replaced so the N1 will make a nice back-up.
Bump... Its hard to believe nobody has tried one of these...on any phone? mine has shipped so it wont be long now

Suggestions for a good car mount?

Can anyone post up some suggestions for a good car mount for the skyrocket? I'd really like one that didn't block the camera so I could record video while driving.
Thanks!
hands down the best mounts in the market is Pro-Clip USA. Expensive, but worth it.

Its ok, you just can't help it. I'm pretty capable but I thought that this community may have a preferred vendor that came recommended for this product.
ProClip is good stuff for sure, but I've never seen a mount from them that's not on the dash or console area. If you want to record while driving, you'd want something on the windshield or dash; preferably windshield if you have a newer car, since they're made and installed to dampen vibration.
For recording you'd probably want something like this Arkon windshield mount:
http://www.arkon.com/mobile-grip/mobile-grip-flexible-car-mount.html
If you really want it on your dash, you could go with this one:

A quick search would have brought you to:
Looking For a Car Mount?
And there, I posted the Sprint D710 model is the one you want because it is almost the exact same size as the Skyrocket, just needs to be modified slightly
Universal holders are ridiculous - for the same price, get the one for the phone, you know you can sell it with the phone and make more money as a "package" instead of trying to keep the same ugly car dock that doesn't charge your phone after you sell the Skyrocket! And as for Pro-Clip.... I've been a big fan of theirs for a long time, but the insane pricing and having to hardwire it every time gets really old, really fast.... for HALF the price, you get an OEM Samsung charger that just needs to be modified and then use Bluetooth to get audio to your car's stereo, very simple, classy, and not ghetto rigged like this awful universal mounts!
I really like my Cobra Universal Mini Mount.
