[Q] vibrant T959 car dock compatible with i9000? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

as the subject states.
looking at the 959 OEM Samsung car docks on ebay. Will they work with the i9000 since its essentially the same phone?
Its either this, or the palm touchstone mod for me... I can't take waiting for the official galaxy s dock any longer!
Thanks

Fascinate one is only compatible if you remove the back cover, desktop cradle looks compatible. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyU2U2PmaqM

Do not know if it will help you but I have a I9000 and bought myself the official desktop craddle for 959. It feets perfectly.

thanks, that is a good hint for sure. So it stands to reason that if it fits the home dock, it should fit the car dock, too!
I wonder why nobody is buying it. Its not the easiest thing to get, but its available on ebay at least, and is pretty slick.

I do not know about the others, but I ordered a 6$ car dock on ebay and it does the job. So why would i spend more?

vinistois, any news? I'm also thinking about buying Vibrant's car dock and I'm still not sure it will fit for my I9000. Have you bought it?

I'm looking to find out if it will work with the Bell Galaxy S Vibrant. Does anyone know?

I seem to recall the pinouts on the Micro USB are different so it would not trigger the Car Dock Home. Let me know if you get one and it works though as I want one as well.
Have a look here for info about the pins. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=820275&highlight=resistors

Ok I took the plunge and bought one. I just got it today and can confirm it works fine.

GPS Car Holder for i8000??

can u guys suggest me good car holder for my i8000?? i prefer vent holder if any...
thanks
You have many choices on http://www.dealextreme.com
Hey there...
Mine was delivered with an car-holder (original!)... It's T-Mobile Germany...
Fits perfect!
Greetings,
Alex
Why???
Can anybody tell me why Samsung makes phones with USB plug on the top of the devices? In my opinion it is reason why the car holder does not exist and many people do not by this phone... me too. Samsung have to learn from "Garmin Asus Nüvifone M10". Add an original car holder is the best way to make the phone more attractive for an customers. And to make original docking station it is better too. Am I right?
( sorry for my English )

Need European plug for OEM adapter

hey, does anyone know where I can get the European (not UK) prongs for the OEM HTC adapter? I don't need the whole adapter, just the part that slides in and out. I'd prefer a US located business, but if anyone can provide a link to where I can buy this, that would be awesome.
http://www.travisgarrison.org/temp/adapter.jpg
I have not done a search for these, so I do not know if they are available, but my suggestion is just buy a standard USB plug charger with the pins you want, it will probably be easier to find in the US and a lot cheaper than a HTC plug.
Same voltage.
Amazon do them, but you can probably find cheaper elsewhere.

Yeah, that's what I'll do if I can't find what I'm looking for but I'd much rather prefer the interchangeable route.
You could try one like this..
http://www.pangadgets.com/proddetail.php?cat=7&prod=MCWOADUSB&gclid=CLX5waql76ECFVVo4wodo3JFIg
It can be used worldwide, and as spare at home
Thanks everyone for all the helpful suggestions, but I'm really just looking for that specific part. I already have lots of alternatives if I'm unable to find it.
When I saw the plug that came with the HD2 I thought it was a great idea - the same adapter for everyone, and just swappable pins. Was a little disappointed there was no euro/US pins also in the box - that would have added, what, 5p maybe to the price?
Even more disappointing if they don't sell just the pin parts separately.
Only solution I know is to get the official htc travel pack you can find it here.
The eu plug will be inside there. Of course also the us and australian and a case and a charger and cable as well. In my opnion a bit overpriced. But the only solution I know.

item in post #4 above is cheaper, does the same job, and I am sure you could get a set on ebay even cheaper.

the item above is exactly what I'm looking for. I don't think you're understanding that the point I'm trying to make is that I don't want the whole charger but just to find the prongs that slide in and out. Yes, you're right that the OEM knock-offs will do the job, and are much cheaper, but that's not what I asked for.
With that said, I'm certainly not paying the price they are asking for the travel kit. I may be picky but I'm not as stupid as HTC seems to think their customers are.
I am also looking for this "HTC EU Plug for TC P300 International Travel Charger" (this was the description that I came up with)..
Thanks to czacha234 I found the plug adapter!
http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=181506
I called the USA branch of expansys and they ordered it for me. It was $8.99. Kinda spendy but way better than the 40+ that people are charging for the whole kit.

I would like the same information if anybody knows something...
not sure what you mean by "snap in cradle"...but for vehicle mounts, you cannot get anything better than this.
www.proclipusa.com
Snap-in
There is an adaptor in the centre console where it allows you to clip your phone in so it can charge/use the car's in built antenna....
seems exceedingly hard to find!
The only way to do it to contact your bmw dealer
I asked my dealer to keep me informed and haven't heard from him yet.. so probably not available...

This dock is good?

Hello I am willing to buy a dock for the optimus 2x. I found this one, wanted to know what you think?

It is safe, but not very well constructed, as the phone itself does not make contact with the plastic of the dock, so it only "wiggles" on the usb plug. I bought another one which is a lot better, and it can charge an extra battery as well: http://www.dealextreme.com/p/dual-u...th-extra-battery-slot-for-lg-optimus-2x-73031
...it uses mini-usb cables though, and the supplied power-adapter is not euro. (The supplied cable was too short to be practical for me.)
I'm in doubt between these two docks:

Are you using the dock for Kidigi Galaxy S2? If yes, it works normally on Optimus 2x?

You've probably got one now, but thought I would comment as I have this one, and it's rather nice. It's a lot sturdier than it looks - I was afraid that it'd topple-over with the weight of the phone but it stays put.
My only gripe is the blue LED which illuminates my bedroom at night even when the PC is off, so I've stuck some black PVC insulation tape over it

[Q] Broken Charging Port

Hello everybody, I've had my T879 Note since December and now my charging port is broken. Word of advice dont let you kids play with your phone while its on the charger.
I found the replacement part, but was wondering if I could use one lets say from the i717 or from similer models. Pictures of the part looks the same for all the devices just that they are branded different. Would it matter?

So I ended up buying a new charging port from etradesupply, was shipped from china to my house in about 3days. Cost $10 another $14 for standard shipping. Very easy to install about 5-10mins.
Thks for follow up. Good to know

This is good to know. My wife's GNote just broke and stumble upon your question here while browsing for unrelated subject. I will definitely check out your research.
