[Q] Compatible dock

I'm looking for a compatible dock for my DHD. I've found this one on Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Proporta-US...KPUY/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1288103826&sr=8-5
My previous phone was an HD2 (and I still have it) and the DHD is roughly the same size as the HD2, though a tad bigger, and the MicroUSB port is in the same place. Does anyone have this dock and can they confirm that it fits the DHD?

Is that a picture of the actual dock; i.e. is the microUSB port dead centre?
If so the Desire HD will not fit as the microUSB port is to the right of the phone, and the 3.5mm jack is to the left.

Well if it doesn't fit the Desire HD for that reason then it shouldn't fit the HD2 either as both their USB ports are in the exact same place, but it's advertised as an HD2 dock?

A dock like this one ?

From what I understand, there is no dock yet which supports 3.5 jack so that we can also have the ability of listenning music even though dhd on the dock?

I am not sure.
Just imagine that you are a all-day-desktop-man and your DHD is on a dock all the time and you want to listen to music via headset (so that no one else gets disturbed) with your DHD while it's on the dock, so what is the suitable dock for that?

If you look closely at the other pictures for that dock you can see that it indeed does have a 3.5mm connection.

A review for cradle. (No 3.5 mm input)

MHL (micro USB to HDMI) adapter works fine!

I just tested today my MHL adapter from monoprice (http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=108&cp_id=10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=8805&seq=1&format=2) and it works just fine.
It actually mirrors the phone screen all times but I could not change this behavior.

Sweet! I really dig monoprice... they did me good on hdmi cables.
I was curious to know if your touch inputs on the phone transfer over to the TV set as well. Like a circle appearing where your fingers are touching the screen.

kind of a stupid question but does this remove the phone charging abilities?

no. there is a micro usb port on the side of the adapter for charging.
In fact, you must have it charging to work.

I bought the monoprice one and, while it has a charging port, it doesn't require the charging cord to be plugged in in order to work... It just won't charge the phone at the same time if it's not plugged in.

There is nothing to indicate the sun was involved. If I had to guess I'd say the dock he used in conjunction with his DC power outlet malfunctioned and overloaded the phone with current. Of course it doesn't say the dock was connected to power either but that scenario is much more likely taking into account the type of damage.

No dock apparently, read the article

DC power from the car. The article doesn't specify whether it was plugged in or even if it was parked (or did I overlook something?), just saying it could have been a rogue car charger. Hell it may have just been what you think and the SIII gets way to hot, but there are too many variables left unanswered to make a definitive assessment.
Edit: I see where he says it wasn't charging now. Who knows man. Weird place for it to overheat though.

Problems with 2012 Camaro.

Hey I have a '12 Camaro SS and it has its own USB port (for iPhone and iPod.) But I charge my S3 on it. Every time I connect to it I get this message

I don't care about music since it has an auxiliary input but I just hate the message. Can I get rid of it? Also the Camaro tries to read it so it's just an awkward silence when the radio goes out can I do anything so my s3 won't be detected but charged.?

Buy a car charger. The computer in your car is incompatible. Much like radios having iPod support. But yours doesn't have android support. You can eliminate the wires which are not needed for charging, but that's risky in its self.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium

You have two options. The first is to just get a car charger. The other is to enable UMS mode. Doing that would allow your camaro to read the phone as a regular USB thumb drive. I'm not sure if it would work for the internal SD card alone though, but it would definitely solve your problem if you had an external card in there (you could even put music on the card and play that through your car).

Since cables have molded plugs, you cannot mod them easily. There are two USB cables available that come wired to prevent the phone from getting a data signal on the cable. This would keep both the radio and the phone from sensing each other. There is a problem however. Charging from a USB port most new phones limit their current draw because USB can only supply 500 milliamps (1/2 Amp). When an AC charger is used the phone draws more current and charges significantly faster. Fooling the radio's connection to the phone could result in damage to the USB port.
The use for these cables is to fool the phone when plugged into 12 volt car chargers that have USB connections. Most of these chargers are detected as a USB connection by the phone, and the phone refuses to draw more current. You can see whether the phone thinks it is charging from USB or AC in the settings menu or with many battery widgets.
Amazon has two modded cables one a "Naztech" and the other from PureGear.

Headset and power adapter

Hi guys.
I was a bit surprised that this awesome phone didnt ship with a headset. Have anyone found out why?
And is it possible to buy another power adapter? I read somewhere that only Huawei's official adapter supports fast charging. Is this true or can i buy like a Tronsmart 2.0?

I have a Tronsmart W3PTA and it´s very good. It fast charges Honor 7 (in ROMs that support it) so I guess it would do the same for Honor 8.
