This post was written in March 2009 – before the Micro USB Charger was announced as standard. This post doesn’t apply to the latest handsets from HTC that use Micro USB charging/data cables – for those you just need any micro usb cable or mains charger

No worries. Adapter should be in the post tonight so you should get it in the next few days.

Andy, In that case I would be delighted to receive the Micro USB. It would be a shame if I could not get the Idapt I3 to work with the HD2 as it is ideal (currently being used to charge my wife’s Nokia and the kids DS’s).

Many thanks for your help.

I’ve just been and checked stock in the warehouse and it appears that none of the ones currently in stock have the Micro USB adapter in them. I’ve spoken to the warehouse and we’ll get you the tip sent out separately.

I’ve got a HD2 charging on my desk now on the i3. The HD2 definitely uses a standard Micro USB charger and will work fine with the HD2. I’ve uploaded a photo of ours charging now, and this is using the adapter that I’ll be sending out to you (we only have one in stock).

Andy, I do not have a Micro USB connection within the box. However I am still doubtful this will fit as I have tried another Micro USB lead and the connection was too small (and still would not fit onto the connection pins).

Hi Daren, There should have been a micro USB adapter in the box with the stand, if it’s missing let me know and I’ll arrange to get one sent out to you.

I am sorry but you are incorrect. The Idapt i3 comes with a mini USB (Not Micro) and this definitely does not fit the HD2.

Hi Daren, thanks for your comment. You’re right, the connector on the HD2 is different to the ones mentioned on this post. The HTC HD2 is the first phone from HTC to use the new, standard, Micro USB charger.

The Idapt i3 does in fact come with the Micro USB adapter so will work with the HD2.

I’ve checked the compatibility listed for the stand and all seems to be correct.

The solution does not, however, work with the new HTC HD2 – this has a different connection. A bit like the Micro USB but bigger. The connection is oval shapped and will not accept the Mini USB plug (no matter how hard you try!).

The compatibility chart with the Idept product is incorrect.
