Hi.
Sry for my bad english. Hope you can understand anyway.
I got a Jumpad 10,2" 3g for christmas. What i can understand is this a copy of the Flytouch 3 pad.
It has everything the Flytouch has. Only 1 USB port on the outside, but i did found a second one when i opened it up
Anyway.
The thing i can find that is different is the battery. Its a 3600mah battery.
I found a 8000mah upgrade battery for the Flytouch 3. But, its a 5V battery. I have 9V.
My question is, can i install the upgrade battery and buy a 5V charger? Or is the hole system based on 9V?
I cant see if my battery is 9V but my charger is, and i guess that the battery is that to if the charger is?
I did just order a class 10 8gb memorycard that im going to replace the internal card with. Hope that i can speed it up a bit. Am also going to try to flash flash with a Flytouch 3 custom rom and see if it works hehe.
Hope you guys can answer my question and that it will work. Would be awsome if it do
No one? :/

I'm researching batteries with a view to getting the best life possible out of an XDA2 between recharges.
What replacement/spare batteries do people use and what is their power (mAh) rating?
What other things can people tell me on this?
I'm not averse to back-packs etc.
TIA
I have one of the batteries available on eBay. Seems the same as the original battery. I carry the spare in my belt case.
I got mine from www.pdamods.com and have been using it for three months now, must say better than the original and in fact looks like an original !!!
I have three batteries. One came with the unit, I bought another from the same shop, the third I bought 2nd hand. All appear identical and all 1200mah. I swap them through my XDA II every week or so so that they each get drained and recharged regularly. When not in use one is on charge in my desktop cradle in the office, other in my briefcase.
All seem to last about the same amount of time.
Must admit though since buying an integrated car kit for my XDA II (plus GPS) I do not have to swap batteries as often.

You can find batteries at 1400mAh, same size as the original and officially 20-30% increased autonomy.
Battery question
Thanks everyone for all the help you've given to me in the past. I have a couple battery related questions:
1. I just got a new battery from PCPockettechs. It is rated 3.8VDC 1200 mAh. The current battery in my XDA II is rated 3.7VDC 1200mAh. I have not tried the new battery yet and am worried that the extra 0.1VDC might cause it some harm. Does anyone know or have experience with this difference? Am i worrying for nothing?
2. The extra battery charger that is in the cradle - it does not appear to be working (the light does not come on). Does the XDA II battery have to be fully charged before it starts charging the extra battery? Does the cradle need to be plugged in to the AC (I have the EU cable which I cannot use) before it will charge or can it just be connected via USB as I do now?
Thanks again,
Sean
Hi,
When I purchased mine from www.pdamods.com it worked straight out of the box. Unless it is completely flat it should work even if charged for a short while, however you should charge it for 18 hours on the first charge.

As far a I know you have to use the AC adapter. USB won't work.
Not true, I charge it with the USB, however NOTE it does take longer
The MDAII charges on USB only too.
Not sure about charging an extra battery (that is what the question is about I think)
thanks guys. Yes, the MDA II or XDA II both charge in the cradle just on USB... however, will it also charge the extra battery just on USB? I don't think it will unfortunately.
On my other question: does anyone know if the 0.1VDC difference will make a difference? The battery appears to be the right size, shape, same connectors, etc. as the original battery - the only difference being this 0.1VDC.
Anyone with some good electrical/technical info that they could share would be great. It would put my mind at ease - or stop me from making a big mistake!
The MDA II charges on USB (in the cradle).
But for the extra battery to charge in the cradle you need to plug in the power (and then the light will turn on!).
Anyone nows where to find such a connector?
Its to connect a external battery to my phone.
Thanks in advanced

That would depend what you mean by 'round'
This comes with a round connector.
For 1 thing such a tool could be usefull at least its easy to discover which wire I would need if I would customize a cable by myself
I ment more something as on the image but what I need then is the female

Did you see this? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HTC/O2-Touch-...temQQimsxZ20081215?IMSfp=TL081215129003r31462
It has a cable (shown in the pics) similar to what you are looking for.
PS: when you'l finally be able to use your 12000 mhz external battery (hope soon for you), could gently report here? I'm looking forward to buy it too.
Thanks.

I made for the time being a connection by myself whit some cables and I am testing right now, I can tell right now that it’s possible to use my phone during charging with the battery, I have charged the emergency battery now for the second time which takes quite some time to get it full charged, don't now the exact time jet cause I have charged it overnight, but connected it yesterday about 3hour before I went to bed and it still wasn't complete charged this morning it was. I have charged my phone a few times now whit it but this isn't representive yet cause I used the my dock which has 2 lights on it and I kept my phone switched on but could charge it until now this way at least 2 times full whit a 2000mAh battery after that I stopped to do the test without the energy consuming dock and whit the phone switched off. As soon I have the test completed I will write a review about it here.

Hi All,
Couldn't find this posted before so wondered if anyone could recommend a USB Battery Charger to change the batt from my Desire without the phone. I have a spare and going on travels want to be able to just leave the battery charging on its own and not use the phone all the time.
Ive seen quite a few on ebay and some look really dodgy with adjustable charging pins etc whereas others are ridiculously cheap and i can only imagine will ruin my battery.
Key points are it should be small, light, USB powered and whilst I accept it will not charge as good/full as through the phone - not to knacker my batt completely.
Cheers for any help.

I have been looking for the same thing and found a battery pack on Amazon for £25, manufactured by New Trent it has a 5000mAh battery in it and can recharge your phone at least 3 times.
I ordered the dual output version on Sunday, so hope to get it and try it out in a couple of days.
Using a Veho pebble here, works great
would be nice for a faster charge though, it seems a bit slow for 750ma

I've got one of those. It's really good, one of the outputs is 1A so charges up really quickly.
My only criticism is the on/off button is easily pressed by accident, but that's really looking for problems. Oh and it would have been nice if the usb socket to charge it was a microusb one so I could use the same lead as the phone.
It's a good battery pack.
It certainly sounds like it is going to be good.
With regards to charging the pack itself, does it come with a USB to mini USB charging lead?

Mine didnt come with any charger or leads but as I have a box full of that stuff it wasn't an issue.
Edit: I'm an idiot. It came with a lead with a selection of interchangable tips to fit most phones.
I forgot as this is now also living at the bottom of my tangled box of leads.
Thanks for the replies guys.
Yeah i actually had one of those external battery packs (5000mah) but found that you could not even get 2 full charges out of it and therefore not worth the extra weight/charge time.
Basically its misleading because the voltage of the battery is different to you phone battery and it need to be upscaled or something - there are quite alot of posts about it. Let us know if you manage to get 3 charges though - that would be good.
But anyone used external chargers for the a spare phone battery?
Hey guys did anyone used this? I know its for Nokia but since it has micro USB I figured it would work
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/250835582918?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
The reason I want to buy this is because from what I understand aftermarket batteries are not that better. Having a 2nd battery just doesn't work for me because I dont to want disassemble the phone every day
Theres HEAPS of other portable chargers out there that have universal plugs and higher capacity, I use a 6000mAh backup. Heres a few;

I didnt see any 6000mAh batteries there, which one are you using? do you like it?
Sorry, couldn't find it quickly, this is the one I'm using, it's actually 6600mAh;
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/150614753910?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
I've had it for about a week and charged me and my friends sensation 2-3 times, I like the unit very much and haven't had any issues so far. Can tell its just cheap chinese stuff but it seems pretty solid.
The cables aren't good quality, I just use the cable that came with the phone. It has 2 output ports, 1 is 1A the other is 2A, I haven't tested the 2A port yet.
Think I'll try this 1 next after the current 1 fails, its 6000mAh.
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-ZAGG...s_Apple_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4aacd58c95
I also reckon this looks like good build quality, and 20,000mAh!!! I'd try it but only like backup batteries that are pocketsize.

Hi there guys (and gals)!
I recently bought a Trent iCruiser IMP1000 11000mAh External Battery pack and charger and didn't got my hands on it yet cuz it's at my friend abroad - but my question is: will it charge Transformer since I have read about differences in charging voltages or whatever. The manufacturer site claims it charges Samsung Galaxy Tab and other android tablets so will I get lucky?
Anyone with any experience using external battery packs?
Thanx in advance
Cheers!
Based on the specs, very slowly if at all. You need 11-15 volts to get the normal charge rate and this batteryonly puts out 5 volts.

Please see Devcake's thread for all the specifications you will need to get the right external battery pack.
