Has anyone tried this?

Its the modifying of the docking station to feed the phone power from the docking station without the need for the AC charger.

This would save a fortune as I can use this at home and leave my charger at work.

That is cool.

What do you mean by a fortune tho? The price of a USB Sync&Charge XDA cable?

this was posted a long time ago :)

It works like a dream I have not used my charger since.

Note if you do this remember to put the

charger socket inside the cradle (there is room) this will ensure

you do not plug the charger in by mistake.

Heh, Syvwich, not having to buy more electricity, and accessories, compare it to not having to pay to get the sim unlocked etc.

[Guest Syvwlch]

But... buying accessories is fun! :shock:

i think your phone would charge faster if you used the actual AC adapter source.. but then again i usually leave mine in over night so thats plenty of time. oh and i bought one of those USB cord/ car chargers, its great! i can charge my phone in the car, and when i goto work, i just pop off the cable from the car charger peice and i can hook that up to my comp! it syncs and powers up

I have never really noticed the phone taking longer to charge IMHO :)

I would still like a car charger though for traveling.
