So I was looking at OTG cables and adapters and I got to thinking. Why doesn't someone create a Otter box Style Case with Micro-SD card interface that will connect by Sliding on the case and interfacing a built-in Case SD-Card and provide a Power interface on the exterior of the case for that market of users.
That sounds like a great idea but probably won't happen unless you do it yourself since nexus 10 doesn't seem to have very many accessories

I'm thinking of buying a streak direct from dell to use with my 3uk sim
Looking on their website exactly what's included with the basic model as usb cable and chArger show as separate purchases
I never attach my desire to my pc so my question is does it come with a normal charger surely it does ?
Also notice that 2.1 isn't for direct purchases only o2 customers any idea when it will be released presume its delayed cos the 2.1 has screwed up most o2 customers phones - I'm hoping dell are delaying for 2.2 release
Just another question has anyone found a holder which u can clip to ur belt to carry the phone ? And has anyone bought the car kit does it rattle or is it sturdy ?

It comes in a neat little box; including earphones, USB cable, and a charger!
To update to 2.1 just have a look at the appropriate thread in the forums...
Success!
i bought it directly from DELL UK. IN the box were
Dell Streak
Wall Adapter with USB on 1 end.
USB Cable to Connect the Streak to PC or Wall Charger
Headset
Sleeve to hold the streak in. Nylon i believe
As for the Case question PDAIr has got some cases that you can use or you can search ebay for easycase or something. Look in the accessories forum there are links for it.
^^ everything above but don't forget either a 16GB Micro SD card or pay extra for a 32GB Micro SD card.
I would recommend easecase off ebay where you can get a custom made leather case for £25 (though you'll have to wait about a month for it) but you can choose the orientation, have exposed or hidden magnets or buttons to secure the lap, whether it has a belt clip, pocket or a belt loop, the colour and type of leather on the outside and the colour and fabric on the inside, have your name or whatever embosed on to the front of the case and if need be, to increase the size of the case for a looser fit.
There are plenty of universal phone holders that will hold the phone one way or another (I'm currently using a clingo sticky pad holder thing) but I've read that the official car holder wobbles a lot due to the flexible arm and the weight of the phone. Tho it's worth noting that for a 12v to USB adaptor, the adaptor needs to output 1000mA and have the 2 middle pins shorted in order for the adaptor to charge the Dell. Some will already have the 2 pins shorted but a lot of them don't.
Excellent thanks just how stable is 1.6 cos I know on my hero it was horrible Bluetooth would never work properly ....

I find connecting to audio devices is fine (mine auto connects to my car stereo whenever I get in and start the car) but I have had a couple of issues transfering items via bluetooth to other devices. Android doesn't seem to allow file transfer by default but you can download bluetooth file transfer off the market for free and it works most of the time, but sometimes it just doesn't want to play. Also, transfering items eats up battery big time!
May sound odd but its the only reason why i like iphone is the accessories and im looking for one that will work on nexus s one thats a case that connects to the micro usb slot and has solar panels on back to charge phone at same time seen plenty for iphone but thats it and i hate these ones where u need usb cable and is something u only get out when needed because they look bad so a case with solar panel on back is all i want and plus protects the phone
If anyone knows of anythin be nice let me know thnx
Does anyone sell a long MicroUSB adapter kit for DIY docking stations?
Something that can be assembled onto a fiberglass or wood dock.
As in, a connector that doesn't have the molded end with cable already attached.
But wht exacty u need? Micro/mini usb cable? Usb male/female pin/plug? Give some mor details.
HD2 HYPERDROID EXTREME EDITION V6.0.1 @ FIKERT KERNAL.
Most micro USB connectors come apart pretty easily.
There are usually 3 tack solder contacts on one side and 2 on the other.
Get yourself a few $3 cables and a razor blade to try out.
You can strip the shells off, route a hole in your stand and insert it.
I think by "long" microUSB he mean really those longer ones, with ~16 additional pins, like one we can find in Nook Tablet.

I disagree, he wants to make his own dock, and needs something a bit longer that will be easier to mount. I have thought about the same thing myself
I think one of these below should do the trick, as they can be taken apart, but obviously, you'll have to do your own soldering. It's a bit tricky, even with a 0.5mm pencil tip iron.

Good luck!
you might want to check out parts sites. I did a quick search on mouser.com for micro usb and under interconnects i selected "USB connectors" you can see a picture of most of the options and even go with micro 3.0 if its better for you
Whoops, I forgot about this thread.
Thanks for all the great suggestions so far!
Yeah, I want the longer USB. Because right now, I have an OEM Samsung car dock that I use.
But when I have my phone in a TPU case, the USB isn't long enough anymore to properly insert all the way into the phone. Because the TPU case puts the phone about 1/4" further from the USB.
I like the idea of stipping a three dollar USB cable.
I think this will be a long term project that I'll work on here and there.
Looking into this myself but for a different reason. I can't find what I want but I did order two of these and I reckon they will work perfectly for you.
http://ie.farnell.com/hrs-hirose/zx80-b-5s/micro-usb-type-b-plug/dp/1719110?Ntt=171-9110
I think that's also Newark in the US. Probably the same part number there. There is at least an extra 5mm there to get you past the TPU case.
I have a Micro SD to usb adaptor. I notice I can't find any "circuitry" inside. its Micro SD direct USB pin out compatible?
IE if I took a micro usb plug like this
http://www.ebay.com/itm/281010532057
and a micro sd socket like this
http://www.ebay.com/itm/140783452372
could I solder them together and have a working OTG micro SD slot?
or is there more to it than that?
See if this helps. The guide is for a tablet but it's all the same. Just make sure the micro usb plug is in host mode just short pin 4 & 5 to do so.

thanks you very much for the link !! I searched a long time never found that thread
No. USB And SD card is not the same. You need a card reader chipset to go inbetween.
There is some full-size SD card that can snap in half and plug into an USB port, these have this card reader chipset built in.

Id very much like to find two empty note ii shells. Cut them in half virticly and thickly. Glue together. Use project box for the hole and dremel it so the ends curve with the case. Put in a male usb micro sd and fill it with memory.
Taller note ii
With 256gb added at least right.
Anyone know where I can find the case parts cheep. Or a simmilar thickness and width project box. Color dosent matter as long as its opaque.

the price of this tools is very chip so you can try without any damage :good:
Spare parts for phones, especially stuff like plastic shells can often be found on online auction sites like ebay for cheap. In some cases, they might be fakes or factory rejects with minor flaws, but if you're just going to cut the thing up to stuff memory cards in it, that probably isn't a huge deal.

It wouldent be a huge deal but im having trouble finding some. Everywhere I saw wants like 15 for the shell and 15 for the batt cover or more. And I need two sets.
Flaws dont matter to me. Nfc dosent matter. N still so pricy. And I cant belive it. Im eused to finding shells for 5 dollars or less. So I think im going to go radioshack style project box rout instead.
If you happen to run across some flawed cases [mainly defects in the top half] pm me a link.
As always thanks for the advice.

If you have one of those thumbnail, barely bigger than the usb plug microsd readers, the circuitry is INSIDE the usb plug, on the underside of the usb pins/board. Super tiny, biggest thing might be the crystal tin.
Standard SD (all sizes) cards are essentially raw flash nand, with some wear leveling hardware.
Hi,
I´m looking for a dock compatible with the original Nexus 4 bumper, actually my Philips Fidelio AS111 alarm clock dock is useless due to the thickness of the bumper in the micro usb connector area, therefore i'm looking for a dock that works with the bumper.I really don´t want to remove the bumper everytime I need to charge the phone.
I used the search function and looked through many posts of this forum without finding any useful information regarding a dock working with the bumper.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
