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

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!!

External battery charger

Can anyone recommend a decent external charger for the Desire HD battery? Thinking of getting a spare battery but want a way of charging outside the phone.
Cheers.

yeah im also looking for a good external charger.. anyone have suggestions?

Have a look at this desktop cradle. I like its design:

that's for the Desire isn't it?

I guess it's better waiting until China DHD launches for good accessories

Yeah, you can usually find these things on eBay for pennies. Maybe in a week or two...

I have one of these that I occasionally use for my G1. It isnt amazing and charges very slowly, but with a high quality battery it should help a little on the go!

Do not you think a direct charger like Energizer XP8000 instead of externa battery charger?

Heres a review:

Did someone have ever used a charger like this?
http://www.a-solar.eu/EN/micro_charger_am500.htm
It's a solar portable charger with a battery of 1900mAh.
I'd like to buy it but I don't know where... do you know a online shop that sell it and send it in italy?
thanks

something like this?

me too!

Ok I'm in as well

i found this one
ebay Item number: 120640014972 (new users aka me cannot post external links )
which is a battery powered portable charger rated at 5000maH and charges the battery in the phone.
that battery cover worries me so i dont want to have to open it too often. also it means you dont have to wait for the device to reboot. not sure how accurate that 5000mah is, but i should be able to fit that and my phone in my pocket for a couple of hours to charge.
not ideal, but i dont trust non-brand batteries, especially if im importing them from china since i have no legal comeback if it explodes in my phone because they are not a UK company.

This is the link -
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....e-All-Categories&_fvi=1&_rdc=1#ht_2465wt_1139
It does look really good actually. I like that you can charge two devices at one too. Anyone have any experience of these? I think I'll order one...

Mobilefun do one for around £20 that docks the phone and has a slot for a spare battery to charge aswell. Not in stock last I looked, but ill be buying one of those.

More Nexus 4 accessories showing up on Play Store

Hi all,
So yesterday after the Wireless Orb showed up on the play store, I noticed some more accessories showing up next to the bumper and orb (only under the 16GB Nexus 4 section).
The links did not go anywhere but this is what was showing up for me (up until about 2-3 PM yesterday:

The placeholder image for the usb cable/charger was this
Image link for the headphones was this
So Google may be releasing some more accessories for the Nexus 4 soon.... just thought I'd share...

These accessory prices are eerily similar to Apple's.

The headphones look nice, but they should of came with the phone lol
Thanks for posting!!

Don't see anything on the site,..

I'd rather have the cheaper phone. Bundled headphones are always crap. Give me a cheaper phone and I'll source my own headphones.

Looks like the same headphone from here

Makes sense, it is an LG sourced phone after all.
I am really happy that LG is taking being a Nexus partner seriously. Samsung sucked at it despite getting 3 stabs at it. They didnt give a damn about the Nexus S or the Galaxy Nexus despite even getting thier stupid little moniker on the device name. Also, they still havent produced any accessories for the Nexus 10.
LG, on the other hand, made a superior phone and appears to be making a real effort to keep up stock and source accessories.

Lol I was half-way joking and I actually agree with you!!
I never really use the headphones anyway, both my Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus headphones are still in the box!!

OP links no longer work

Those other stuff are fine and dandy, but all I want to know is when THIS is coming out!!!

It's like a combination of the brilliant iOttie EasyFlex 2 and the wireless charging orb.
I was so excited when I first saw that video I even made a thread on reddit about it.

As per the original post, the links never went anywhere, and this only showed up for me for about 3-4 hours yesterday afternoon, I can no longer see them when browsing the play store, however these are the links that were attached to the items.

Iv been doing some digging and it turns out that the headphones in the picture in the OP are in fact the LG optimus G/ LG Quad Beat.
http://rageworx.tistory.com/1324
Or search LG Quadbeat. I think they are currently only being sold in South Korea, (Lucky which is where i am atm)
Also selling for 18.800 Won which is about £11.10p

ORZLY USB A to USB C Cable Set

I thought I'd share as they finally got delivered. Still says it will be delivered on the 13TH of next month...
Orzly® Multi-Colour Value Pack of USB 2.0 Type C (USB-C) to Type A (USB-A) Cables (1M) for use with OnePlus 2, Nokia N1 Tablet, Lenovo Zuk Z1, and Other Type-C Supported Smartphones & Tablets https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013RMG5WY/
They are USB 2.0, but I know I'll need some spare cables at home, in the car and at work.
The cables are much nicer than I thought it would be for this price. They actually are a beautiful color with a clear surrounding on them as you can see in the pictures. The end all have this really nice speckled metallic appearance. The connectors look like they're pretty well made and nothing feels cheap. I will say the cables themselves are a little floppier that I was expecting but I've noticed this from flat cables a lot more.
Only cost me $19 for the 4 cables. Let me know if you guys have any questions, I'll answer what I can.

I was just looking at these on Amazon untill I read a review some guy said they only charge at 500mA max so idk

They may, but I don't care, that's why they are spares. I've got a few others on the way and one of the dual port ones from Google work the long cable.

thanks these will probably work great for a nice slow trickle charge through usb at work!

That's what I was thinking, when you can't find your good cable and need something to keep it alive, or have to move some files or pictures at work.

I have these but haven't used then yet. They feel very cheap to me. I don't expect more than 500mA. I'm sure they'll be great for a trickle charge until they fall apart. I expect to keep them for that reason only, even if they only last 6 months.

Yeah, I could barely care if I lose one, just a spare. I didn't think they felt super cheap though. Did you get the same colors?

We just got these in my store, ?

I've got them and been using them with my OP2 since launch. What app can I use to check charge rate one you let me know I'll check all of them. I just got in the red and black cable from them and it is thicker and feels like it's high quality I'll do a video this week on it

I'm using a good looking app called Ampere.

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.

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.
