Hello,
I've just received the mini usb audio for my P3600 bought in ebay. The model is for the P3450 but run very well.
Headset KIT PIÉTON Four S1/XDA Nova/HTC Touch P3450
The price is 9€ + 12€ for the ship.
and what are you trying to tell us with this post?
I wish to use a standard earphone (other than that bundled by HTC) with 3.5 mm stereo pin. But the problem is that HTC accessories are not readily available in India. Now what I thought is, can we not make a homemade adapter by cutting a mini USB cable and connecting / soldering it with a standard 3.5mm stereo adapter. In that case the microphone of course will not work. I have read at HTC site that the mini USB of HTC vox (may be all other phones of HTC) is a propreitory 11 pin connector. So can a standard mini USB cable be satisfactorily used ?
Anybody has any idea ?
This is what I use with my VOX

it works perfect, and I got it delivered to my home in India.
but I dont use it anymore cause I have got the new Jabra BT3030 bluetooth stereo headset which is so perfect.
Thanks Prajith. I am thinking of buying one.
Also ebay
Do a search on ebay for "USB audio adapter for HTC Vox". They are very cheap.
JK
BUY IT from XDA DEVELOPERS STORE
Its available in the store.xda-developers.com
http://store.xda-developers.com/xproduct.php?xProd=1859

@naidu001
you can get two of the connectors I mentioned in that price.
and hey it can be used for charging too, which the connector you mentioned cannot.
Rightly said Prajith your conector has boyh USB mini and 3.5 jack. Actually I purchased a few things from another site where postage was further cheap at $3 per item. But it seems that cost of the items are cheaper at the link shown by Prajith.
Anyway I am searching for an adapter with miniUSB, 3.5 earphone jack and microphone too for answering calls. I know this will be avaialable but the shipping costs are main.
@parthabhatta
talk to some of the other windows mobile users near place and buy this together. That way shipping cost becomes very less and they may offer a discount also. I had bought 30 of those, now I have only one and that too I dont need.
I would seriously suggest that you try a bluetooth stereo headset, you would never again use a wired headset. Ever!
Let me know if any of you folks have bought this miniusb to 3.5 mm audio jack converter for Vox from xda store. How easy is to order one from there?
I live in Bangalore. Is there any one knows which is the right place here to find it?

I ordered it from brando shopping. I don't remember the price paid but they have a standard 3 $ per item charge for shipping anywhere. The item will reach you within a fortnight maximum.
The url is probably shop.brando.com.hk or google with brando shop and you will find the exact address. No extra customs duty etc has to be paid.
Thanks PrabhatBhatta,
i went to Bangalore's National Market and tried a few adaptors, none could really work actually. Then i tried a final one which is the same as seidio one, which worked atlast for me. I bargained it for Rs160.
I've looked everywhere, but can't find a decent carkit/active-holder for my MDA Compact IV.
I've tried the 'Brodit Active Holder for the Touch Diamond', but it doesn't fit due to the rounded corners.
Is there an active-holder for the MDA Compact IV?
Hope so...

That's interesting and helpful. www.brodit.com certainly reckon they have an active kit for T-Mobile Compact IV, but after your post I checked to see if this was a different part No from HTC Diamond, and sadly it was not.
I was just about to order one too. Does it just not fit well, or not at all?
EDIT
Hang on a minute, what exactly are you saying.
On inspection of the part number 968843 or 971843 I can't for the life of me understand how the rounded corners would make any difference.
From their website
Item no. 968843 fits:
HTC P3700 For all countries
HTC Touch Diamond For all countries
O2 XDA Diamond For all countries
O2 XDA Ignito For all countries
T-Mobile MDA Compact IV For Europe
Some more feedback from you would be really helpful

Not at all! The salesman (at the pdashop.nl in The Netherlands) tried to place my MDA Compact IV into the Brodit active holder, but it wouldn't fit at all...
I hope there are other active holders for the MDA Compact IV...
Maybe CARCOMM or ADAPT active holders

I'm not looking for an argument here, and I fully understand that you went to pdashop.nl and the salesman could not get the Compact IV to fit, but is there the slightest chance that the salesman did not have the diamond/compact IV active holder (in other words the htc diamond would not have fitted either.).
I understand that the compact iv has rounded edges, but I believe the USB terminal is in the same place. I also believe that they are the same thickness and width. The design of the Brodit (of course I'm just looking at a web picture) does not indicate that rounded corners could cause the problem.
I have not compared diamond to compact iv side by side, but in your opinion where was the problem. I can only think it must be the side holders.

On the box, I saw that the brodit holder was for the Touch Diamond, there was also a dummy of the Touch Diamond in that store, and I held my MDA Compact IV next to it. The back is so much different. Everything on the Compact IV is rounded and maybe just a little thicker...
From the specs
TM Compact IV 101 x 52 x 12
HTC Diamond 102 x 51 x 11
I have spoken to the following company in the UK
http://www.dsldevelopments.com
They assure me that the HTC Diamond brodit kit is fine for the TMobile Compact IV. They actually fit a comparable phones into the cradle prior to offering the unit on their website.
I mentioned your issue and they said that normally when this kind of thing happens, one would find that the unit itself was faulty. Apparently the cradle itself is hand finished [his words not mine] and sometimes a rogue unit can be manufactured. So his belief is that the diamond would also not fit into that actual unit.
From the specs on the previous post I would be almost certain that a tolerance of 1mm would not be the issue.
Anyway, the company above do export,and the cost of a telephone conversation should not be too expensive. Call and speak with a guy called Dave or Alan (sorry I can't remember).
However I suggest you go back to pdashop.nl and try another unit.
Hope this matter will be resolved. I can't quite make up my mind which fixture to choose yet, so I am not in a position to order.
However if mine does not fit, I have been promised full refund.

THANKS a lot!
I will go back to the pdashop.nl to try other active Brodit holders and let you all know the results!
anyone know a cheap site to get these from? i priced it up and it's gonna be like £45 with the car mount also, and this was from http://www.dsldevelopments.com
I ordered the Brodit proclip from Morpethmobiles for £14.95 delivered and the Brodit passive holder from www.qfonic.com for £16.95, both prices included delivery
The holder is for the Diamond as I couldn't find a dedicated mdac4 one, but reading around the consesus is that it they are the same
I'm just waiting delivery. Morpethmobiles has taken a while, but then again they have probably been under water for a week!
just ordered this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HTC-Touch-Dia...39:1|66:2|65:12|240:1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14
I've got a Carcomm CMPC-129 MOBILE SMARTPHONE CRADLE HTC TOUCH DIAMOND P3700. It fits perfectly for my MDA Compact IV.
http://www.carcomm.nl/carcomm/websh...ProductId=57F3F689-5056-8659-086FE80C261B4BB7
hey there, any chance of a pic of your compact iv in the cradle?
I'm not doubting you at all its just i'd like to see how it fits in and relate that back to the promo pic you posted with the diamond in to see the difference.
Thanks
Damian
I bought a Brodit car cradle with 3 in one adapter that fits my O2 Ignito perfectly. Got mine from Expansys UK but there are a number of websites that sell it, just google it for the best price.
On the Brodit.se website there is 2 different versions of the passive holder:
848843 - this looks like the standard 'Diamond' holder
848862 - this looks similar to the 'MDA compact IV' as its also got rounded corners on the phone!
I recommend car holders from German company Herbert Richter. Everything is made in Germany si you can expect quality to be great. There's a wide selection of suck mounts with replaceable dedicated mounts. This way I've had the same holder since vario II. plus Touch Diamond dedicated holder is a good fit for compact IV. You can get them on eBay or from expansys.
a nice one if you want your MDA compact IV in landscape mode.
from Ebay
I have used HR-parts on my previous PDAs as well. While HR does not provide holders for every device on the market, what they offer is of good build quality and works just fine.
They have been a long-time OEM-supplier for HP/Navigon-bundles.
Have fun!

Maybe this will do? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=463753 bought is for 25€ ok its a lot of money and to start sawing in such a item isn't something what makes it better but whit a smal multitool you can make it fit as you can see in the obove mentioned link I made it fit a 2000MAh battery and that need much more space as a MDA Compact (never thought I should help someone with a %$%&*^%#$#@@$%^^ T Mobile account)
