Guide 2 - Modifying the USB Cable (IMPORTANT)

 To be able to mod your phone, you need to tweak the USB cable that you use to connect the phone to the computer. I would advise you to buy a cheap cable in an electronic store for under Rs. 95. The Motorola cable is both expensive and difficult to mod. If for any reason, you do not want to modify the cable yourself, you can always buy one ready-made from eBay. Click here for more details.

You will need:
1. USB-MiniUSB cable
2. A small wire with both ends trimmed.
3. Soldering iron.
4. A Big smile and a lot of faith in yourself. :)

Steps to be followed:
1. Open up the plastic covering of both the USB and the MiniUSB male. Much like splitting a nut, slice it with a knife from the side.
2. Take up the MiniUSB side. There will be one silver end that is not connected. Solder one end of the new wire that you have here.

It should look like this (the red wire is the new wire I have used).

Warning: Check for any possible short-circuits. Put the plastic cover back on.

3. Take up the USB side. You will see 4 pins, all connected to wires.
IMPORTANT: Now, with the 4 pins facing upwards, notice the 2 boxes (if any) above the pins. If you see silver lines inside this box, solder the new wire onto the left most pin.
If you do NOT see any silver lines (its just plain), solder the new wire onto the right most pin.
Refer to the following illustration for further clarification:

It should now look like this (if the 2 boxes are blank):

Put the cover back on (remember to check for short circuits!). You should consider taping the both the sides so that they stay put.

There! You now have met all the requirements to start modding your A810!!
