I think the main thing is that it be USB OTG. There is a huge thread somewhere discussing this topic. Based on that thread, I ordered one of these and am hopeful that it will work properly.

Go to Best Buy. It's $20. You'll find it in the Xoom accessories!

The only one guaranteed to work is called the Motorola Camera Kit, and consists of a small adapter (3-4") referenced in the post above. There are others advertised as OTG cables/adapters) but they're pretty hit or miss.

Apparently the Nokia CA-157 can work just as well for the TG01
This is probably the easiest replacement to get hold of, original TG01 accessories are hard to come by and not cheap either.
awesome, thanks saw those coming up on ebay but wasn't sure of compatability

A couple of other items now on eBay.....
State compatible - provided they are wired as a uUSB A type plug (ie. Pin 4 and 5 shorted) then should be fine.

Yes, the Nokia's CA-175 is working well without any drivers. Keybord, mice or external hdd.

Many thanks for the information - that's very helpful. I'm also most impressed that you have been able to get the 1.8" HDD to run happily directly off the TG01 without running into problems with its ability to supply sufficient power !
Best regards,
Kevin
About ability to connect stuff to our beloved TG01, I've been able, using a 4-way usb splitter (with external power, though), to connect simultaneously mouse, keyboard and usb hard disk. Tg01 rocks!

30-Pin Dock Connector to Micro USB Data Adapter - CHARGE VIA USB!

Hey guys! Just a heads up on this USB adapter I snagged from USBfever:

IT ALLOWS YOU TO CHARGE VIA USB! It should, of course, be noted that it will probably not charge as fast as it would with the OEM charger or any 2 amp charger. But it does work. It didn't take long to get it (they ship from Hong Kong) and the price is worth it. I have also used it with my Sharper Image portable power pack with success. May have to get myself another one as a backup.
I bought the same one...
Also bought the SD/USB adapter and pickup a original galaxy tab dock for gen 1 model for a fiver down the market,
The dock is a tight fit but I dremeled a slit down the side so it fits much better....
MUST HAVE it too
Sent from my Galaxy Note with DarkyROM 3.3
I have one of those too, but is too tight of a fit for me to dare use it. That's not necessarily representative for other units though, as these chinese accessories don't exactly match up from batch to batch
After some more use I've discovered that while it will let me charge via usb it will not actually recognized that it's connected to a computer. But it was still worth not to carry that big block around with me.

You can get the stand without the USB hub portion for < $5.
Does the N4 actually fit? The Nexus One had a special docking port or something, right?

Pretty sure it's just a sticky pad you set the phone on.
Is that even an actual official Google store?

Haha, I see it now. I was just confused cause it said mobile phone charger :laugh:
Not sure if I can trust this store or not. There are two different sites. I googled the, the one you posted (googlestore,com) and another one (google-store.com) came up. In the search results, the later was listed as official. Both sites have the same basic layout, but they don't all have the same products. The first site has more products listed. The second one has both dollar and euro prices listed. It just seems odd that google would have 2 different online stores.

It could be, that your cable / dock connector is dirty or faulty.
If your could test another cable (or buy one), this would be the first step I would do.
U're right, thanks!
I have another cable, tried that and it worked!
Thanks! Never crossed my mind to check with another cable since it's the original one.
One more thing html6405 please!
Which of rom's from your page would you recommend in terms of stability and higher vers of android?
Thanks again.

Hey autoid_os
I have the TC77 with identical Port. I want to make a USB cable for ADB/Fastboot Connection.
To you know what the Data pin's are in your Picture?
For this new Port I don't find any technical information.
Thanks in advance
Blizzrar
But I think better is to buy cable for few usd

Yes, this is what I did for the USB cable.
I have another question, do you know how the serial cable works for the TC7x series?
I mean the part number CBL-TC7X-SERL1-01
It seems to connect to the same connector but the serial connector seems to be very big so I guess it is using some circuit like USB to serial for computer? I cannot find it anywhere to buy it that's why I am asking.
Can some one make me a charge cable and send to me.
I do not want to pay $100.0 of $30.0 for the cable the tc70.
