Obviously i'm not going to plug it until i know that wires are set correctly.
The usb cable wires, as known, are:
WHITE: USB DATA+
GREEN (blu wire in my case): USB DATA-
RED: +5V
BLACK: GND
Based on this
Pinout:
I am doing this from memory, so it might not be correct. It is probably documented in mobileread along with the connector layout for a circuit board.
On the kindle models that I have examined, the serial port layouts were designed so that it is okay to short together any adjacent pair of pins. They are in the order (starting at the top on kindle 3) TxD, RxD, GND. The kindle 3 also has a 4th pin at the bottom, which when connected to the GND pin above it, enables +3.7v DC power to the top connector (in the top slot). You should verify the information above before using it.
I'm assuming that, using the picture and "reading it" from left to the right
WHITE: USB DATA+ -> 1st pin from the left
GREEN (blu wire in my case): USB DATA- > 2nd pin from the left
BLACK: GND -> 3rd pin from the left
RED: +5V -> not necessary
Is it correct?
If so, what's the next step?
