Intro: Fix Your K750i Net Adapter

This is an instructable to fix your broken K750i net adapter. I write this instructable because of the bad engineering skills from sony ericsson. After a while of using my phone and after some charging cycles the net adapter hold very badly time after time and at the end it was impossible to charge the phone anymore because the connector wont hold. So there are two choices. Buy a new on or invent something to safe money. So i figured out a very cheap solution to charge my phone again.

STEP 1: The Damaged Adapter

Here you see my damaged adapter. You can see that on the right side some of the plastic is missing. The pin on the left side is also cracked, its hardly to see but it is. So it wont hold anymore on the phone and you can't charge it. So what to do ...

STEP 2: What We Need

What we need.

- 6 cable clips
- scissors

STEP 3: Connect the Cable Clips

Now you beginn to connect the cable clips in the way the photo shows you. Don't pull it to far through the other one.

STEP 4: More Connecting

Keep on connecting. I think the picture say erveryting.

STEP 5: A Cycle of Cable Clips

Now you have a cycle of a cable clips. We need two of this cycles so repeat step 2 - 5.

What you do now is to plug the not holding net adapter in your phone and the cable clip cycles around them. You take one of the cable clips and pull it so that the net adapter connector will hold perfectly.

Sorry that there is no photo of this step but my only camera is the telephone. There will be on maybe later.

STEP 6: Cut the Cabel Clip Ends

The last step is to cut of the cable clip ends. You're finished. Now you can charge your phone and talk with the whole world again.

Also my earphone connector is broken. I use a wristband (like Livestrong wristband) to hold the connector.

Yeppo a wirstband will do the job too. But i had only cable clips.

ok.. am i missing something? all you've made is a triange of zip ties, how does this help charging my phone?

If you have finished the two triangels you put the ac connceter (wich won't hold in the phone) in your phone and then the triangles around it. I will upload another photo which explains the use of them better.

For the missing step, why not take a picture in a mirror? That should show how to keep the plug in.
