Hi,
this morning i found my Xda2 with the usb plug...broken! It's impossible to put into the crandle.
Is there any way to repair it?
Where can i take replacement hw?
Thanks
Do you mean the plug on the cradle, or the socket in the PDA?
If the plug is broken, you can get sync/charge cables, and cradles from anywhere that sells qtek/imate/xda accessories such as ebay or www.expansys.com
If you mean the socket is broken, you will have to find a local service centre, but they will probably charge you for a whole new board which will be expensive.
If you can't afford this, the only way around is to buy a spare battery and charge these alternately in the cradle, and sync over bluetooth/irda.

can anyone please help, I'm looking for the connector at the base of an XDA 11, as mine is not working, I've been told that the connectors off the ipaq 3800 & 3900 will also work on my XDA 11, so does anyone know were I can get hold of one...........................
go to e bay type in xda and there are lots cheep
Do you mean the whole base unit or the mains charger piece.
RE: connector
Hi wessy123,
If you look at the bottom of the XDA2 there is a connector plug to charge the phone in the dock also to Activesync the pda to your comp, that's the part that I'm looking for as mine is goosed, can you help ? have you got one spare ?
Put XDA on e-bay there are loads of cheap charge/sync cables i buggered mine cost £3 to replace it.
Its not the sync cable he needs, I think he needs an old xda or ipaq 3800 series motherboard so he can desolder the connector and resolder to his own motherboard.
re: connector Plug
The part that I'm looking for is the Connector Plug itself , that's connected to the motherboard, if you look at the bottom of the XDA2 you can see the plug.... inside the plug is a row of very fine connectors , on mine they are broken.
I can sell you charging/synch connector for $20 US
connector by itself so you don't have to use soldering tool to take it off the ipaq motherboard
PM me if interested
Hi
I've looked through the threads and can't find any posts with this problem.
My phone has stopped charging through the cradle or car charger. It syncs and charges through the usb and my wired sat nav connects up but neither method charges my phone. Obviously the battery will die down quick when I use my tom tom so I need that to work and only being able to charge via usb is a pain and inconvienient.
What can I do to fix it??
sounds like the chargers power supplie has blown buy a new one.
well no, cause it doesn't charge with the car charger either. so its a problem with the xda. Or did you mean buy a new XDA?
maybe the connector is broken and the pins which do the charge from other sources then the usb connectors is disconnected
you can 1 make a cable which have an usb connector in the end and AC or Car power in the other
you can change or pay somebody to change the connector in the xda
or you can buy a new pda
thanks. Know anyone who does repairs?
sorry no
and even if i did this being a somewhat international forum
me saying "yeah the guy down my street have a mobil shop and he can do it" would not help much

Well, prob your easiest bet would be getting a broken wing from ebay and yanking that one out, but you could resolder the connection and then use hot glue to help hold it to the board. That's what we did when I worked in the service center at Micro Center (computer store). There is a lot of force put on that part from plugging and unplugging the cable.
Hello
I have a Leo that will no longer charge through the USB (although my PC can establish an AS connection with it). Battery is ok (can charge it in another Leo, for instance). I think that the USB connector is damaged can anyone suggest a place where I could order a replacement connector from?
I could send this unit to HTC but I'm in Brazil and this would mean sending it to Europe.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Does it charge using the wall socket charger?

Good point. I just thought that he must have tried that already.
Expansys sells the cable. It's $10.99(US) from their Brasil web site - http://www.expansys.com.br/s.aspx?search=188901 but I don't think they will have any stock for 10 days (my languages aren't too good - I'm Scottish, English is hard enough LOL). The Expansys UK site sells the cable for £8.49 plus plus shipping. Here is the link: http://www.expansys.com/d.aspx?i=188901.
A quick Google (other search providers are available LOL) or a search of the Accessories section for HD2 here at XDA may provide other options.
Regards.
Cable OK
Yes, I've tried it with another cable - no use, so that's how I figured out it must be a damaged USB socket
For a short term solution you could try finding a battery charger on Ebay...
You haven't accidentally ticked the "Do not charged when connected to a PC" box under the battery status?
My HD2 will no longer charge as the micro USB connector inside the phone is very loose and faulty. Anyone know of a repair center or person in London who could fix it for me? Paid of course.
