usb adapter replacement - Thinkpad Tablet Accessories

The micro usb slot broke on my tablet. I don't know how to get it fixed so I bought a docking for it as an alternative replacement to recharge the thing. The problem with the docking is while charging the tablet I can't use it in landscape and it's so bulky. Is there any cable out there that can plug into the tablet docking slot like how you would plug in a usb cable to the tablet without the dock?

don't think so, but you can try to build one

No there is no way to archive that.
But there are usb to 3mm cable.
But what has this to do with development?

no you didn't understand my question.i have a car charger via usb like the one from the photo attached but the thing is i think it wont charge with the car charger + micro usb cable because it doesn't charge with the micro usb cable not even when it's plugged on PC, and i think that it doesn't do this because of the software limitations look at other devices from Archos or other brands
No, you didn't understand the answer.
There is no possibility to use the Micro USB for charging, PERIOT.

30 pin to Micro USB

Curious to find out if this adapter would work on the p6800.. It is said to work with p1000, but i am not sure if it will work with the p6800..
I always have a micro usb cable around for my Galaxy Nexus.. If this works i can leave the proprietary Samsung 30 pin cable home and just carry this small adapter.

Update - The item is no longer on eBay....
I was wondering... We get this 30-pin male to usb male connector... can we use a usb-male to usb-female connector instead of a direct 30-pin to female connector?!
I bought one of these for my 7.7 and it works fine. It ONLY charges. It cannot be used for data.
Search ebay for "Micro USB Laden Dock Adapter" to get another version of the 30 Pin to micro USB Connector. But again: only charging - no transfer

I got one of these. works great for charging through any micro usb charger, even my usb car charger with a micro usb cable plugged into it.
i got one to try then after i made sure it worked ordered 3 more. home, car, office etc etc

I ordered a few of these to work with my older GTs (original, 7 Plus). They've all worked fine with each. I use them with a retractable usb to micro usb cable to lessen the amount of chargers/cables/portable batteries i need to carry (one set will serve my phone and my tablet and just swap out the ends.)
Both work for me also. USB and uSD. Data transfer and video. Haven't tried charging though. Got mine on eBay. Keep an eye out. They'll return I'll bet.
OEM not working on my P1010

This looks promising

flyer dock extension?

Hi,
So i bought this desktop dock for the flyer
http://www.expansys.co.za/expansys-usb-cradle-for-htc-flyer-209455/
it is quite inexpensive and looks great. It does have a normal micro usb plug on the dock and only one connection at the back so you either sync via usb or plug a micro usb charger (micro usb at the back but comes with cable)...
My issue is that the micro usb plug on the dock is just a little bit to short if you have a shell on your flyer or if it is in a case...
i'm looking for a small micro usb male to micro usb female adapter that would make the plug higher... so far i only found micro usb male to mini usb female and mini usb male to micro usb female... I'm just worried it might make it too high...
Had a similar problem mate, took me ages till I found this
http://www.ebay.com.hk/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130626980424
thanks mate. how do you use it with dock though?
looks like we have different issues, mine was ti lengthen the cable
My bad, sorry........
Now I understood your problem, don't think you can find a proper solution mate...
i've found micro to mini both way
so i'll try to combine them and see how it goes

Razr webtop travel adaptor + OTG

Hi guys,
I've just got Motorola webtop travel adaptor for my Razr, it is working well, webtop mode can be launched.
However, my OTG cable cannot work over this travel adaptor even with Y-usb cables with power supply (not worked with mouse,keyboard, usb drives).
I've tried without the travel adaptor, the OTG cable is working well with Y-usb cables with power supply.
Can anyone help?
I Believe the port on the adapter is for charging only.
In the HD Station I think it internal OTA goes to a 4 port hub with the webtop enabler hooked to one of the ports and the other 3 out the back.
So you'd need to plug your OTA into the phone, have they power y cable and hub. Then'd you'd need to make a cable to plug the adapter into the hub. which would take to much work.
On my setup I bought an attrix dock on amazon for $30 and a microusb extension from usbfirewire.com for around $8-$11 and just plugged the HDMI from the phone directly into the tv.

[Q] micro usb charging ports on tablet z

I was wondering if experts on this forum can help clarify these questions.
The tablet Z has a rectangular shaped micro usb receptacle which is the microusb A/B type as I understand it. Although the normal popular micro usb B type connector which is supplied with the tablet Will fit in there, it is kind of loose, being able to move a little bit. Whereas the A type connector which is usually found on the OTG cables is a perfect fit and does not move around..
So, why is it that even Sony does not supply a cable which perfectly fit the receptacle?
If I use an otg cable to charge somehow (by making another cable from otg cable for eg or using otg with a normal usb male to male cable), since 5 pins are used in the otg connector will it in any way damage the tablet? (physically or otherwise..)
