Guest BrAGoL Posted September 23, 2003 Report Share Posted September 23, 2003 to all... here is the procedure i made... HTH ;) for the picture reference, please click HERE... from the exterior view, you can see that i've used a 4-pin SIL (single-in-line) male header and a jumper header... this is just to switch/short (for charging and synching) or to unswitch/unshort (for synching alone) the pins needed to charge the battery... those pins are; from USB +5V (red wire) and the jack for the wall charger (brown wire)... the red wire was soldered to pin #5 (assuming that you're counting from the leftmost corner) alongside the red wire that is connected to the USB's +5V pin... while the brown wire on pin #1 (also has red wire) which is connected to the jack... i was actually considering on using a micro switch before... but did'nt have time to find any... as i was in a hurry to do it ASAP... it's too inconvenient to carry the wall charger almost everyday :wink: i also could have soldered it directly... but gave some importance on what will happen to my battery when i'm only synching it... HTH you... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted September 23, 2003 Report Share Posted September 23, 2003 Nice job ;) Just to clarify for others this is the sync cable that caomes with the Smart phone, similar to the cradle mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BrAGoL Posted September 23, 2003 Report Share Posted September 23, 2003 yes... the package that goes with the unit here in the Philippines has only the snyc cable... unlike in the other that has the cradle... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest elr Posted September 24, 2003 Report Share Posted September 24, 2003 I also made modification on my usb sync cable when i didnt have the retractable one yet... I made a small incision along the cable near the wall charger jack, stripped off the red wire and soldered an extended wire with a 2.5 plug on the other end. then i plug that in the wall charger plug if i want to charge thru usb. Pictures are here..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
