Hi i have a speaker dock, which is designed in favour of the iphone/ipod and was wondering if anyone knows of a 30 pin(female) to Micro Usb(Male) adapter something similar to the Lightning adapter.
I know of the DockBoss+ and http://goo.gl/XJqNw these would work but looking for something that the phone can actually sit on the dock and be stable which is why i am looking for something similar to the lightning apdapter.
Cheers
I'm pretty sure all that adapter does is allow you to charge with a 30pin cable... I don't think it does data...

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
I've been looking for a cable to use in my car with my sII skyrocket for a week or so with no luck thus far. What I want is a single cable solution that plugs into the micro usb port on my phone and provides an aux out as well as usb out so I can charge and listen to my phone through my car. The usb would plug into a usb car charger and the aux out would obviously plug into the aux in on my stereo. I know it's possible to have one cable do this as I've seen docks that have this feature but I have yet to find a cable! I loved being able to easily charge and listen to my iphone with a single cable and hopefully someone knows where I can find one for my galaxy sII. Thank!
Does your car stereo have a regular 3.5 MM audio input? If so, just get a male to male audio cable and run that from your phone's headphone jack to the stereo.
I don't think there is such a cable because the Aux is an input that only take a signal from your device to the stereo, not the other way around. Usually those docks plug into the car lighter and connect to the radio using a specific radio station signal. Like burhanistan said, you should just buy a 3.5mm male to male cable like Retrak or Belkin and get a car lighter adapter for charging.
Yeah that's what I've been using but I would prefer to use a single cable to charge and play music. As you can see in these images the official samsung dock has a pass through auxiliary port with the only input being from the micro usb port so its definitely possible.
I might try and buy one of these and soldering in a micro usb cable to charge simultaneously but the skyrocket isnt listed under the compatible phones. Oh well my search continues...
Yea, sorry bud, the closest thing you're going to get is one of those Radio adapters that has a USB port on it, as well as the 3.5" male end.
I just checked on google for awhile and simply couldn't find anything. You can find these for the iPhone and I've used them, they rocked. Seems like the Skyrocket doesn't support audio out through the usb connector?

yeah would be nice..
Just bought one of these http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Headset-Adapter-to3-5mm-Female/dp/B003W057FS/ref=pd_cp_cps_1
If it works with the skyrocket I'm going to solder in a usb cable as well to charge it at the same time. I'll let you guys know if it works next week.
i too would love something like this. i used the IMP adapter before on my iPOD it was great could charge and listen to music at the same time with only one connector coming out. seemed more clean as far as cabling went.
Well the adapter I bought does not work with my skyrocket... Oh well I guess I'll have to deal with a mess of cables for now
Bare with me here... though this may turn into a convoluted solution.
I already own a galaxy s2, along with the HDMI adaptor for it (I believe this is a microUSB -> HDMI adaptor?)
Unfortunatly, the Note does not have microUSB ports, or even a normal USB port. So, I was going to buy this:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/eKit-Connec...1_2?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1353974512&sr=1-2
Unfortunately, of course, this also does not have microUSB. But it does have miniUSB and normal USB.
So if I get an adaptor such as - http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B002O1S8...de=asn&creative=22218&creativeASIN=B002O1S8IE
...Will this mean I can use my current S2 HDMI adaptor, on my Note10.1?
While this may seem overly complex, my reasoning is (I think) sound. I will be getting the USB adaptor block anyway, because it is compact and universally useful. And I already own the hdmi adaptor (a Note-specific one is £25 minimum...far as I can see).
So the only extra expense is the £2 for a micro-mini USB adaptor. Saving me £23.
...assuming this will even work.
Any notions?
I do not know for sure but I thought I read somewhere the first adapter will not allow video pass through. Sorry I do not know where I read that at.
I use the hdmi adapter made for the original tab 10.1 and have had no issues. I think its 30$ on Samsung website but i'm sure you could find it cheaper on Amazon or Ebay. Or even an off brand for that matter. Sorry Its not much but I hope that helps.

Oh I see, I'd just assumed USB was USB, not sure why it would block video... Strange

That was my plan. The galaxy S2hdmi cable is a micro-USB to hdmi converter.
Apparently the 4in1 USB adapter doesn't let any video signal through though. Uyoud have to buy a 30pin to hdmi adapter instead.
Just tried my mhl adapter from my one x no joy shame really maybe someone will find away around it
I picked up a SanDisk Dual USB drive, and although it works well, I was disappointed to see it's a bit too big to work with the bumper case I use. I briefly considered modifying the case, but think my best option is getting a short USB extension cable... Though I thought that would be a simple and cheap solution. After a little looking around though, I'm not sure I know what micro usb extension I need - MHL, OTG, Power? As best as I can tell, I need what they're marketing as a micro to micro OTG extension - but if someone can confirm, I'd appreciate it. My concern comes from comments on some saying they don't work for charging or syncing (search for "YCS Basics 6 inch USB Micro male to female OTG extension cable" on amazon), but it sounds like the mhl cable is just for HDMI.
Help?
Just get a small USB OTG cable. I use one sometimes with my Corsair OTG drive and it works great. Not all of my cases will let me lug the micro USB in easily hence why I have a small OTG cable. I can post pictures if you would like.

Can you return it for the new USB 3.0 model? Supposedly they made the uUSB connector longer to work with more cases.

Really? That would have been great... but no. Or maybe... but probably not worth it to me at this point. I got a standard OTA cable and have just been living with it that way. And I haven't looked, but I'd have to think they're charging a premium for the 3.0 enhancement. I bought mine during one of those Christmas sales, so I got it real cheap at the time. Thanks though.
Just picked it up and works great. Holds on nice and strong. When used with a 15watt charger it charges pretty fast. If you need a car mount this is the best one we can get.
Some basic info for those who want one.
No charger. You will need any car charger but 15w will be best.
No usb cable. just a usb type c
Can be used with android auto or just like normal.
Can be used on the go for for a 3.5mm jack. That is bulky. You can also remove the mount from the back and remove the release tabs and make it a bit more useful for that but its still bulky.

I have one of those docks that are magnetic whish is great because with this phone there is no need to add the magnet with the adhesive the phone just sticks straight on it. I love it! It's also a lot cheaper than buying the car dock.
so you have to plug it in for it to charge?

I had one to. But it did not clamp on the vent to well. This dock has a thumb scre so you will rip the vent out before it slides off. Also gives you a 15w charger "charger and cable required" as well as an aux out. Plut it up and android auto will instantly launch. Great dock well worth the $65
Got mine on Sunday, works great!
Can you control the next or previous song from the car steering wheel with it?
Kind regards

The vent clamp attaches to the dock with a ball correct? Can you measure the diameter of that ball fit me? Thanks.

Over Bluetooth you can if your radio supports it.
On another note, anyone have a cheap recommendation for charging my phone in the car super fast? Also does this dock support data transfer or only power? I have an avh-x2700bs and being able to use the dock for appradio one would be super cool.

What is so smart about that cable? Also do you know if this incipio dock supports data transfer via it's usb c port?
Should I order a USB-C to USB-C cord to go along with this charger? I currently have this and it's meh at best for charging but it does data transfer.

Because it has a built in chip that makes your car read the music player data just like having a USB stick inside (name, artist etc).
You need a Type C to Type C cable to activate TurboPower, the charger comes with one included.

That cable sounds cool! The charger you linked is only the adapter, do you have a suggested usb-c to usb-c cable?

The picture shows only the adaptor but it comes with a cable. Yes, C to C is the way to go
This has been my favorite moto mod so far! I have everything but the mophie pack and the projector. It's so nice to just get in my car, stick that right by the air vent next to my steering wheel, and I'm good to go. It's so smooth, really can't go wrong (unless your vehicle isn't so great with vent mounts.)

FYI, the dock does not allow USB data pass-through. This means that the dock cannot be used with existing radio/vehicle Android Auto. It will only auto start device-only Android Auto.
I bought it to find out.
