Hi everyone !
Do you guys know where I can buy the Samsung official car stand/dock for the GSM Galaxy Nexus ?
I am in the US and they only sell the Verizon one which doesn't have the 3 pins charging connector.
I'd like the stand to charge the phone while I drive.
Thank you !
Search is your friend. And if you searched you'd know it wont ever ever eva come out because you didnt search.

This is what I am looking for: http://www.clove.co.uk/official-vehicle-dock-samsung-galaxy-nexus-ecs-k1f2begstd
Has anyone seen that in stock somewhere please ?
(preferably sold directly in the US, not through a UK website)
Thanks.
It's not available anywhere on earth yet. Perhaps on Mars. I haven't checked though.

i'm wondering, through any guesses, would this dock work with the S3?
i would love to have this dock to connect an HDMI cable, or also any of the USB plugs.

Well, the on the Samsung germany site, they have what LOOKS like the same dock and they say it works for both. the part number is slightly different (that could just be an EU/US thing though).
I would expect some shimming to be needed for the S3 to fit... but (as another member pointed out) it might lock the phone in portrait mode....
Really interested in this as well. If everything else works, I can live with the portrait mode. Hopefully someone will post a hands-on soon.
i already have the Galaxy S3 dock. and the locking into portrait mode does not bother me.
the main reason i picked it up in the first place is so i can audio out and charge, instead of plugging in USB and AUX cable.
i also tried to see if a 5-pin MHL adapter would work from the dock end, but it didn't.
here's hoping that this will work on the S3.
I am hoping for this dock to work on S3 too. I am holding onto my 50% off coupon code for this dock.

Yeah, it sounds like you could have walked up to any pretzel stand in the mall and asked this question and you'd probably get the same answer. Most likely "Tina" is actually Ramajesh.
I don't see why it wouldn't be compatible. Unless Samsung intentionally made it not compatible. This link shows that the 11-pin MHL cable is compatible with both (http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EPL-3FHUBEGSTA-compatible), so that means the it's the same exact port in both phones. The only way I figure it won't work is if Samsung purposely tries to detect that it's an S3, and blocks it.
I am sure it works.
the only reason it would not work is not something related to the MHL thing but the shape of the stand , and I don't know the difference between the S3 and the Note 2 so I am not sure about that.
and as for the girl from the costumer service , I would consider her another retarded person from the way she was responding.
we only need a member who has an access to one of these docks to try and give us a review
Guys, is this product available in Korea ? coz im going nxt week also any idea how much note 2 in korea ?
i hv s3 but going to buy note 2 nxt week and hopefull use both devices on this dock.
thanks
Have these things even been produced yet? It was just announced and already on back order, so it sounds more like "coming soon". Hopefully someone can at least get a preview model soon (ie. before those 50% off coupons expire!)

If they're out anywhere, I would think Korea would be the place! Keep an eye out and let us know. Also, have a safe trip!
fitting into the dock should not be an issue. since the Note II is 9.4mm thick, and the S3 is 8.6mm thick. most likely even with an extended battery (like what i have) on the S3 will fit in this dock.
agreed though, if anything would stop compatibility, it would be the MHL adapter built into this dock. yet again may be another change Samsung did to make people buy separate accessories. perhaps a differently aligned 11-pin adapter? that would suck.
I guess we'll just have to see, but one thing that may help as far as physically fitting, is that it looks like the Note II has a flatter bottom, whereas the GS3's bottom is curved out more, so the microUSB port should extend down -- it just may not sit as stable without putting little props to stabilize it.

That was what I was trying to allude to. simple fix with a little sugru though.

Sorry -- if you register a US GS3, you should be able to get a 50% coupon. I'm not sure if it works for other devices or outside of US though.

however, it would also work with any old samsung phones you have, i'm talking flip phone old. i think that's US speicifc as well.

this user found a review on the dock..i used chrome to translate the page and the reviewer said it's a proprietary dock for note 2. gs 3 didn't work in it at all EXCEPT for charge...not even USB sync.
not sure if that makes sense......but that's what it says in the review after translate.
i'm no expert but assuming if the note 2 and gs3 have the same pin structure how could the dock not work on gs3?

here says that its compatible with s3

Yeah, doesn't really make much sense -- it's like they'd have to go out of their way to make it not work. And why?... the Note II is apparently selling well, but there are what ~ 30 million GS3s on the market now?

You are correct, the review is norwegian and i'm swedish but we understand each other's languages and it only works for charging. I read on the swedish samsung facebook page where someone asked about the dock and they answered that it will work with the S3 after a firmware update. It seems to not be as expensive as I expected in sweden, around 45 euro, it is supposed to be available nov 20.
Hi everyone,
I have just purchased the Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 White colour on ebay.co.uk. I saw the seller pasted another seal on the box. I am considering about the battery coming with my handset. I am afraid that they replace the original battery. The battery they give me has a sentence Cell made in China and Assembled in China. I did searched information about batteries of Galaxy S4 but there is nothing like my battery. Apparently, all batteries of S4 are made in Korea or Vietnam. I attached the picture below. Could anyone help me this problem. Thanks so much.
uhhhh wrong forum?

Hi guys,
I know there are some threads on this already, but I wanted to start a new one.
I'm looking for a real specific kind of mount, since I already have a swan neck & bicycle mount from my previous Xperia.
I've been browsing the internet, trying to find a holder like the one in the picture:
So far, I'm unable to locate one. Has anybody seen these for a Z1 compact? If yes, please provide me a link !
Thanks!!!
The fixing system reminds me of HR (Herbert Richter) and AFAIK they do car & bike holders. Should be available on amazon and eBay...

Well yes, the fixing system is indeed HR compatible, but the holder itself isn't Richter.
I've been looking on Amazon & eBay first of all, but even in other webshops I'm unable to locate it for the Z1 compact.

It is very similar, but your link is an active holder. I need a passive holder, since I'm also using it on my bicycle.
Maybe it just takes some more time to be available...
I assume you looked for Z1f as well?
