Hi
I'm looking for an NZ plug for the HTC USB charger.
I know I can use a UK - NZ adapter, but I was hoping to find a 'slot in' NZ adapter to use with my existing USB Plug ( as supplied by HTC)
They sell the full travel pack here:
http://www.htcdirect.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_8&products_id=765
Which includes the NZ head, but it's £29.95 !!
If anyone has one they want to sell, please let me know
Any Ideas ?
Thanks
Just found my tomtom main / usb charger that I bought in NZ..
Comes with US, UK, AUS/NZ & Euro plugs and cost me £15.00
Spec is: output 5v - 1.0A
I presume this should work as it's the same out out as the HTC.
This is available for £7.97 here:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Tomtom-4A00-182-5A00-081-A05T2-05MU-USB-Wall-Charger-/310157216511
You would need a USB / Micro SB cable.
Can some one please confirm this will work !!
I'd hate to damage my new desire
Thanks
I also had a charger marked 5v and 1 amp - works fine.

Hi,
title says it all really... I damaged my cable. As I still have the Haicom receiver, I still want to use it.
I can't find this cable anywhere.
The cable in question is the in car charger cable for the XDA/XDA2 but also connects the GPS receiver to the XDA. The connection to the Haicom HI-203e is a PS/2 connector (same as older mouse or keyboard).
If anyone knows where I can get one of the in the UK i'd appreciate it if you could let me know where.....
XDA2 is a cool tool...

try:

or ebay sellers usually sell them for £20
Or if your capable with a soldering iron you can make yourself one

tried it...
Thanks Swifty.
Tried to do this but used a incar charger instead of the car kit.
Didn't work.
The HI-203e was getting power but not enough...
I think the resistor in the car charger must be bigger than the one in the proper cable...
And, I have also tried to find this cable on Ebay...
Impossible, if anyone does find one tho let me know.
I have scoured the Internet trying to find this cable with NO joy...

phone up GPS systems and ask...... :roll:
Sno, you can always grab a universal incar ciggy adaptor from maplin or similar, they are only £7 then just set the dial to 5Volts (or whatever the 203 needs) then put the + and - cables onto the cable you made, obviously you will need a ciggy lighter splitter for your car, so that you can use your charge cable, and gps @ the same time. Or grab yourself a female lighter socket and cable it upto your battery..
..got it...
managed to find it @

I ordered and received my TC from Clove Technology (UK) since it is still not available in my country (Slovenia). Now to the problem - the power adapter which arrived with it is UK type which is not compatible with continental electric outlets. Since TC is still not available here, I can't buy a spare one, but I can get it for Tytn II (Kaiser) or Touch/Touch Dual.
Can anyone confirm that they are compatible and I can safely use it for charging my TC? So far I survive with USB charging.
Thanks
Power adapter - plug converter
Maybe you just need a power plug UK to EU converter. Here, in Serbia it's just a few hundred Dinars (approx 2-3 EUR)
(or simply charge from USB)
Chinese have power plugs compatible with the whole world - checked out.
I received a UK power plug with my TC and swapped it for the US one that I used for my Tilt (Kaiser). I also kept and use the USB cable from the Tilt for the TC. I've had no problems with either - as long as they fit (miniUSB on one end, power plug or USB on the other) they should be fine.
Hi all,
Has anybody got any of these? I have my old diamond 2 htc car charger and would like to be able to use it on the desire via an adapter. I understand most adapters only support charging?
Please post your experiences with any you have tried.
Thank you
The adapters shouldn't be a problem. They should have a full set of pins. Some cables only have the pins that are used for power.
BTW - someone is likely to ask why you are syncing your handset with your car cigarette lighter

i've bought some mini to micro usb adapters and they are great for charnging and sync as well. they are made in germany, delock is the manufacturer.
Have a look at my post in, "Not a Standard Micro USB power cable"
There is an adapter available from CPC in Preston (Mail order available, but don't know how much they charge) and also a couple of USB -> Micro USB leads available from them.
Also available, from Maplin is a 'micro' cigarette lighter to USB Adaptor to plug into your car which is quite a bit smaller and sleeker-looking than the one I currently use. For £5.99 it seems a reasonable deal.

i sincerely had to laugh at that comment
Hey guys, I live in the U.S. and am extremely dissappointed by the Euro socket charger for the HTC desire. I need a United States wall socket for it, and cant find it online. Does anybody know where I can find one? Thanks in advance.-rs0cal
As it's USB, you can just buy a standard international adapter with various socket/plug fittings

mine came with a US socket, don't know if it's because mine is from Telstra (US 3G version). i'd go to BestBuy or TMobile as well; they sell aftermarket USB wall power units.
And I am from EU, and mine came with US plug
Funny things happen..
Yeah i guess so. Its a A8181 from Mexico I think, since the box is all written in spanish.
Will do, I'll check out my local T-mobile for socket options. Thanks all'.
I got a charger with the option to change plug. Which is nice.
Sent from my HTC Desire
Mine also comes with the USB plug adaptor and two slot ons, one for the UK/Ireland and one for US.
Strange your one not coming with one.
i got a telstra one also and it only came with the aussie plug for the ac adapter
as in it was in 3 pieces, some sort of universal usb adapter brick, a usb cable, and the plugin piece that slides onto the usb adapter brick, and the sline in plug piece is aussie only, came with nothing else.
so i gotta charge it via computer usb for now til i buy something else...
Well there's always the chance that those of us on here who don't travel may be up to just posting over the part that is needed....3-4 quid postage is nothing after all for helping out a fellow XDA member.
Buying tonight from clove, will I be able to plug it into an other wall charger (micro USB from old Samsung ) and be able to charge the phone ? Anything else I should need to know ?
yes it will work. it uses a universal micro usb port.
