yes,is possible to diy cradle for table s and can be recognise by it.
start from the power plug,
let's name the contact of plug from end to 1234
from the note on power adapter,we know 2 is dc+,3 is dc-



contact 1 is about the cradle.tape contact 1 then connect the plug.
look,system show cradle setting ui!


so,diy cradle is so easy:
just make some cradle size ok,
tape the 1st contact of power plug,and set it on the cradle.
done!

it will work same as official cradle :D

Hey!
First of all: That sounds really great!
But I do not have a lot of experience with such things so I do not have any idea how to construct such an adapter (ok, the technical way is clear so far, but how to construct the case of the adapter?)...

Does anyone have an idea?

Thanks and kind regards

Let me know where you can get the DC plug from, as, I'd like to make a car adaptor, as far as I know, it's a Sony Special and not available (yet?)!!!

I tried this, and although the cradle function is activated on the tablet (as shown in the OP), it didn't charge after I taped that pin 1 on the charger plug... :eek:
