Obtaining 5V power from CK-7W car kit

I have a Nokia N80 which connects to the car kit CK-7W via the cabla CA-27 and a mounting cradle (from Brodit) thus when I insert my phone into the cable I am completely handsfree (without bluetooth) and the CA-27 cable charges my phone without the need for a separate charger.
I have changed my phone to one which has a mini usb power connector, I can connect to the CK-7W car kit via bluetooth so that isn't a problem. However, I was wondering whether the power from the CA-27 cable can be used to charge the new phone - therefore I was looking for some kind of adaptor to convert the CA-27 to micro usb (if this is possible?). The other option would be to 'splice' the data cable (CA-27) and get the 5v output from there somehow - has anyone done anything similar?
Currently, the CA-27 cable is neatly installed behind the dashboard and would like to continue to utilise the power facility from this cable, I am looking to avoid using a cigarette charge type for power as this will look messy. Therefore I was wondering if there was some form of cable - or can anyone offer any other advice on how I can acheive this.
The car came installed with the CK-7W so i don't really know where it's installed. I have chopped a usb cable connected the red and black across some of the pins on the CA-27 but no luck (I did measure 5V dc across some pins but doesn't charge the new phone).

If your CK-7W was produced before July 2007 then the short answer is sadly no.
The software in the CK-7W will only send a charging supply when it receives the data signal from the CA-27.
Later kits were supplied with a CA-116 cable which has the Nokia charging pin instead of the now discontinued pop-port connector (as on the N80). These later CK-7Ws also had different software to enable the new cable. There are then adaptors from the Nokia pin connector to micro USB (I'm not aware of any to mini USB though).
Older units cannot be upgraded though, and this lack of upgrade potential was one of the reasons for the CK-7W being replaced in 2008 by the CK-100. another issue with the CK-7W on newer phones is echo for the other caller.
If you have a newer CK-7W then it would have been supplied with this CA-116. If not, it' could be time to upgrade...

Car Kit 610 and E72

I tried to install Nokia 610 Contact Download Application for Nokia S60 3rd edition devices, but there is some certification problem. Can anyone help me and get new version of this software to download contacts from phone to Car Kit?

Now had time to look at this issue and confirm that nothing you change on your E72 will allow you to install 610 Contacts Download irrespective of fact that Nokia Content Signing CA Validity is from 06.10.2006 - 05.10.2011 so not quite sure why it is being rejected at the moment.
However this application can be installed on E72 with the following proviso:-
You would have to unsign it with application such as SISContents and re-sign with a certificate specific for IMEI of your E72 which unfortunately is beyond the remit of this manufacturer's sponsored forum.
However if you were desperate for this feature, at least you know now that it is technically feasible although this maybe of little consolation to you under the circumstances.

N95 not disconnecting from 616 car kit correctly

We have 2 cars that have 616's and users with N95's. Both kits fitted professionally to a BMW and a VW, and phone as kits are about a year old. Everything has been working great, but over the last month they have both developed the same problem, where the N95 still thinks it's connected to the kit, and needs restarted. They can then go back into the car again and it connects fine. The firmware on the phones have been upgraded, but the problem still happens.
Does anyone have any ideas, is it the phones or the car kits that are having the problem?
They are connecting to the kit in sim access mode.

Thanks for your help.
When I wrote my post there was no special N95 compatible version of the contacts downloader.
Meanwhile there is a compatible version of the contacts downloader and with it I am able to download my contacts from the N95 to the Nokia 610.
You can find the N95 compatible version in the download section of the Nokia 610.

I want to download pictures from a Sony Memory Stick Pro Duo to my iPad 4. There is no cord for the camera and the USB dongle requires too much power through the camera connector kit. Any good solutions?

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

RE: Down load contacts from Car kit (CK-15W) to No...

As you might have guessed from the subject line I am missing all of my contacts from my N95 phone. However they are still present in my car kit. Is there any way of transferring them back to the phone from the car kit?

This sounds like a screen fault.
Return the unit to your local Nokia Service Point with proof of purchase from VW and they should be able to replace it for you.
VW should be able to remove the screen if you do not want to do it yourself. The small cover plate on the back of thescreen needs to be removed, then the cable un-clips.

Upgrading a Car Kit from Nokia 6310i to Nokia 6680

I drive a Mercedes E320 which has a fitted car kit which takes a Nokia 6310i in a cradle. This works very well and is integrated to the car radio etc, it is not a Mercedes kit as it does not integrate to the Mercedes Command System (i.e. I can not push the button on the steering wheel to answer calls etc). I think it is Nokia Car Kit but I can not be sure as it is hidden under stacks of plastic and leather and it will be a devil of a job just to find the box.
Last year I upgraded to a Nokia 6680 (my trusty 6310i having decided to retire) and given the law on use of phone in cars I thought it about time I put a new car kit in the Merc, (I cant do with things in my ears, so headsets are out of the question). I have bought a CK-7W and the cradle for the 6680 but as it is going to be a difficult job to locate and replace the whole system (or expensive if I have the dealer do it) the question I want to ask is simple. Is it possible to just CUT the cables between the different cradles and thereby join the new 6680 cradle to the existing 6310i car kit, (I am quite proficient with a soldering iron and heat shrink tubing). OK, I know this is a bit Heath Robinson but if it will work then it will save me a whole load of time and inconvenience, or a whole stash of money as I don’t relish the thought of ripping out a Mercedes dashboard just to find the car kit
If it is possible does anyone know the cable colours (if they are not the same, between 6310i and 6680).
Thanks
David

Hi
The new cradle (CA27) will not work with the old car kit (assuming its the CARK-91).
But If you can locate the CARK-91 control box behind the dash (my guess is that it will be near the radio of behind the glove box), there is no need for cutting/ joining of wires.
Autoleads make an adaptor from the old Nokia 6-pin to the new 4-pin connector.
Its simply then a case of replacing the phone cradle, replacing the control box with CK-7W, swapping the other connectors (mic, speaker), plugging in the converter, and away you go.
Search for "06-208B Autoleads Adaptors" in Google for the converter (be careful - there is another adaptor that is 4-pin to 6-pin

Navigator Car Kit External Power Supply

Has anyone figured out a way to fit the Navigator 6 car kit (Palm GPS Car Kit is model 3224NA) with an external power supply? I 'd like to use the unit in other places besides my car.
Post relates to: Treo 700p (Verizon)

On the iPod there are two ways to get power into it. On the dock connector there are power input pins for USB and power input pins for Firewire. USB is +5V while Firewire is often +12V but can be a lot higher. On the Firewire pins you can input over 30V. What I am not sure about is if you can input more than 5V on the USB power pins since USB is standardized at 5V but that doesn't mean the iPod can't accept more on those pins.
Anyway, the automobile connection is very likely wired up to deliver the +12V car battery voltage to the Firewire power pins of your iPod Classic and that is normal/acceptable.

Car kit for 6500 from 6230i

I have the now old cark 126 great holds and charges the phone even has an arial. It seems what ever I do now with my new phone is a backward step. I am begining to think I should have kept my 6230i instead of changing to the 6500c.
I hope one of you can help with the following issues.
1 Which hands free kit should I use?
2 Is there a cradle available?
3 What about charging the phone ?
4 arial ?

The only option you have is to change your car kit, Nokia only do bluetooth car kits for 6500 classic. Look at Nokia ck-15w or ck-7w, your phone will work with other brands of bluetooth kits like Parrot or THB Bury.

Power Functions of Car Kit CK-7W with a wired Pop-...

Hi,
Just a general query regarding the use of the Car Kit CK-7W in conjunction with the connector cable and a compatible cradle.
Will this sort of set up allow the use of features such as keeping the lights on all the time?
Can you use automatic answer?

carsound -- since you have installed so many of the CK-7W kits perhaps you can help answer a question that seems to be on the mind of many Nokia users that are having a similar problem to mine...
With the CK-7W and current model Nokia phone (mine is an E60) in a Nokia cradle (mine is a CR-26) is the functionality different than when using bluetooth? More specifically, the CK-7W supports everything the manual says, like voice tag dialing using the remote button, when in bluetooth mode but when it is in the cradle the remote only adjusts the volume and only gives a short beep when pushed. It doesn't activate voice commands or give any indication on the phone anything is happening. Just sits there. Is this consistent with your experience? Have you seen the voice tag feature work when the phone is in a cradle?
I can't get an answer if this is by design, a faulty unit or a firmware issue with my phone. In all my web searches it does seem to be an issue for many others (with other phone models).
Thanks for any insights

Which Car Kit for my trusted 6230 & 6230i

I am so confused with the amount of Car Kits available. I would like a kit for my 6230 & 6230i and have seen 2 so far. The CARK 91 and the CARK 126 but do not know which would be more suitable. I do not want Bluetooth connection, I would just like to plug the phone in a cradle and have a decent 2 way conversation. Any ideas on which kit would be the most suitable. Power/stereo mute/external antenna would be nice but not essential. Thanks in advance.

CK-7W Car kit using the wired connection into an MBC-15s Cradle with the AXF-15s Antenna Coupler.
The only downside to these older wired car kits is that there is no digital speech processing so there will always be some background noise. Therefore is it critical that the microphone is correcly placed directly in the line of your voice and away from air flow from an open window or air vent.

Can't connect or reset Nokia 616 car kit

I've just bought a used car which has Nokia 616 Car kit fitted. I can't connect as either user and I can't get to the infamous standby screen to get into the menu to do a reset of the settings. I've tried holding down the "hang up" button to get to the screen but nothing.
I really would like to get this piece of kit working as I will find it very useful.
Any help is very appreciated.
Thanks
Ant

Not sure myself, but tyr disconnecting the power from the kit as I think that will reset it.
If not go into the bluetooth menu of the kit and reset it
Please see the attached link with the instruction book

Car kit CK-15W screen sometimes doesnt come on.......

i hope someone can help me, i bought the Nokia CK-15W bluetooth car kit as an aftermarket add-on from a car dealer when i bought my new 2008 Volkswagen Jetta.....the dealership installed the unit to my car and within days of taking delivery of my car i started having problems with the car kit visual screen not turning on
i returned the dealer and spoke to my salesperson and he said that he would have his shop look into the problem....the servicemen claim that all the wiring has been done properly and there is nothing wrong with the operation of the unit
the screen comes on and off whenever it feels like it, i can get into my car for the first time in the morning, the screen will turn on, i would run an errand close to my house, be out of the car for 5 minutes, when i get back in, the screen does not come on!.....the lights inside the toggle switch always lights up....but there is no pattern to the display screen coming on.
i have owned the car for 4 months now and have learned to live with the inconsitancy of the power functions, but now my frustrations have grown because it is now 3 days since the last time the display has come on
has anyone else had this problem???
does anyone know what the diagnosis might be and how can properly have this problem corrected??
(i have noticed some people in the discussion groups are international---i live in Nevada, in the United States)
THANK YOU IN ADVANCED TO ALL WHO CAN HELP ME!!!!!
