I was looking at something like this:

hi
i use this external accupack:
http://cgi.ebay.at/externer-Akku-f-...photoQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1713.m153.l1262
i can fully charging my diamond two times

there is a battery that gives you a extra 100 mah but don't know where to find it anymore however.
I'm using the officiele batterypack from htc it self.
2600 mah. it's not so much as other ones but thisone gives you de double amp, the same as your phone adaptor. Most of them give only 500 like a usb port.

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!!

There is also a similar model with a charging recess to take a spare battery. I have that and have found to work well. I will see if I can find a link tomorrow.
Only real drawback is the flying lead connectivity... I still hanker for the simplicty of dropping a device into the cradle and having it mate with a built-in multi-connector rather than the fiddle of plugging in the less than elegant uUSB flying lead. The price of the ultra-thin form factor I guess.

Kevin

TG01 docking station
I just bought two of these - £3.99 each including postage, can't go wrong. Just got them this morning and they look great and do the job, finally a decent stand for the TG01

I have finally found the source I obtained my pair of docking stations - similar to the previously quoted example on eBay, but these came from a supplier in Germany and have a built-in recess with charging capability for a spare battery in addition.

So you have to connect a cable first, then put it in the dock?
It's more of a stand in a way?

That's correct - but with the side mounted uUSB port on the TG01 and no mating port on the bottom such as was typical on earlier devices, it's difficult to see how they could have done much else. It works fine though apart from the slight niggle of having to plug in the uUSB lead.

I have found the cradle to end all cradles..... hehehehe
SUCH A PAIN IN THE ASS TO ORDER THIS STUPID MOTHER BLEEPING THING...
Ok, no more capital letters, so here is the story, I go on amazon cuz I liked the idea of having a cradle for this device. Yeah yeah, it is old now, but I love my TG01. I will own this phone for a while. So I go on Amazon.de (keep in mind... I live in Japan) and I find this AWESOME (sorry I lied about the caps) cradle, and as the Germanz would say, "zee kruadloo izt aweeesome." Unfortunately I am in Japan and can not buy it. So I signed up with a freight forwarder and then bought it under their name, and hopefully this 25 dollar item will not cost my 200 in the end. Take a look everyone, even has a charger for an extra battery in the back, made specifically for the TG01, as soon as I get it, i am going to cut the cable off and mod it with a 90 degree angle cable and then I will have the perfect dock.
http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0039IJL1O
Yeah, I searched all day long to find this somewhere else, somewhere for cheaper shipping and handling, in total this 25 EURO item will probably cost me at least 70EURO to get it too me... wow... I am retarded.
-Kilinsane.

Hi Kili,
Good luck with the cradle - looks the same as the one I previously posted about - in which case should do good service. One tip - the second battery charging slot is very handy, but does have one quirk in that it doeesn't seem to be happy with a completely flat battery being put in to charge. In that case just sits and blinks - but if the battery is maybe 2/3 discharged or less then seems fine. I've noticed that my (completely separate device) very decent AA and AAA NiMH programmable battery charger also doesn't like fully flat batteries - it will refuse to charge them until they've been started off in a dumb charger first.
Let us know how you find the cradle when you receive
Best regards,
Kevin

Desktop cradle?

Has anyone out there found a decent desktop cradle? I like to stand my phone up on the night stand while charging.

Got this one a few weeks ago for $8...worth it IMO, the quality and construction are both great esp for the price: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0126HG28I/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Any pics of it in the stand/connector/power cable etc? Thx Would be nice to have one at work to stand the phone up instead of it sitting on my notepad flat.
Maybe at home as a charge stand at night as well.

I bought one of these a while back when I had the wireless adapter for my M8.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00M4OB1WG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00

If anyone is still interested in this, I ordered this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018PJ6EBG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
*****UPDATE*******
This will NOT NOT NOT work with the A9. I sent it back to the seller with a rant. Obviously they didn't test it, the USB connection is 180 degrees out.

I use a cheap business card holder, it is black and mesh and my phones have all fit very well in it on their side.

The USB connector is turned around 180 degrees..WTF.
Anyway, can't find a desktop cradle worth beans anywhere. Pretty sad how the A9 support is so limited.

The problem is HTC don't make the charging in the middle but they keep moving the port in/out a little in the side from model to model. For example, the dock for m7 won't fit the m8, the dock for m8 won't fit the m9. While the dock for m9 has same width as the a9 but the port location is off just a little. If they would just put the freaking charging in the middle, we can use the dock from the m8 or m9.
This one would work if you don't mind the phone is off center: http://www.amazon.com/First2savvv-d...&qid=1455986552&sr=1-10&keywords=htc+one+dock
I used one of the dock for the M9 before and the problem is it disables the Quick Charge feature. It takes a long time to charge the phone. But I only tried one. If you have one that work with Quick Charger then please let me know.

Someone just need to make a dock where the charging port slides back and forth.

Magnetic Dock [Update]

UPDATE 2: Didn't get too much interest, but decided to go ahead and have them made anyway. There is a very limited quantity available for now, but available on Amazon for whoever wants one. Will more more if there is interest:

Hey everyone. I been seeing a bunch magnet based type c connectors popping up where you plug a small connector to your phone to which a cable magnetically attaches to for easy attaching and detaching.
Kind of like this one
Has anyone come across a similar thing but a dock instead of a cable? Basically having the same plug on the phone but being able to just put it on a dock that has the other magnetic end. The problem with phone docks is it's hard to plug the phone in and out of them. This might be a good solution.
If there isn't anything already available, I'm thinking I might make one. For those of you that have/had the Nexis 10, I'm the guy that made the extremely popular (by my standards) docks for that tablet. If there is enough interest, I can tap into everything I've learned from that project and make something like this.
What do you guys think?

That's pretty cool, and something I've been looking at doing, did you 3D print it? If so, care to share the file? if not, how did you make it?

Didn't get too much interest, but decided to go ahead and have them made anyway. There is a very limited quantity available for now, but available on Amazon for whoever wants one. Will more more if there is interest:

Really nice!
Don't have the 30 to spend right now, but if still available when the time comes, I'll definitely buy one. :good:

Will you still be able to plug a "normal" USB C cable into the phone or you have to remove the adapter that makes it magnetic?

I like it!
Typo advice for your Amazon product listing: You wrote "Mirco-USB" in the product listing! Also, it was confusing to me that you list 3 connectors in 1 item, because I am used to eBay listings where I have to specify what type... Also I think you should specify "Apple Lightning Connector" because as a non-Apple user, I initially thought that you were advertising that the dock included "Lighting".
If it was $30 like the guy above me said, I wouldn't be getting one, but since Amazon is showing me $10 or $12 with cable, I'm violating my own boycott of Amazon in protest of the unfair working conditions & low wages subsidized by US food stamps for its employees in face of the $25 million per hour that Jeff Besos pays himself (considering that he crossed the $100 Billionaire line in 2017, and now has $150,000,000,000 in wealth in 2018, and a typical US work-year is 2000 hours).

I found the magnetic cables wearing out quickly. The ones that didn't, only charge at a slow speed...
