I got 2 of these off eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-SAMSUNG...159056?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3f0f089010
They are meant for the "standard" (AT&T or International) GS2's but it fits my new T-989 perfectly even with the DIZTRONIC TPU case on it. It probably fits most any device with a bottom micro-usb port on it. It comes with a removable rubber adapter for smaller devices. Not bad for $11 from China. Got it in about 10 days. It's a knockoff of the iPhone Universal base. No audio out ports. Just sync/charge.
i purchased the Original from Samsung only $40, and it comes with extra 1850 mAh original battery with NFC

Any pictures? How long did it take for you to receive it?

Ok, but that is $29 more than $11 and most people don't need a $29 battery and NFC is useless for the most part. Plus it doesn't work with a case. Other than that, GOOD DEAL!!

Can you post pics of your T-989 w/ TPU case in the dock?
Do you know if the USB transmits audio and if it has a back 3.55mm jack?
I ordered two of the Sinjimoru Sync stands. They're cool looking and lightweight. I removed the two lock tabs on the cable that make the cable stick in tighter. I'm planning on mounting them to something that won't lift up easily when I try to remove the phone. Overall, worth the $22.

The stand you are linking to doesn't charge or sync. That stand is just a holder with no connection directly to the phone. 2 totally different things with totally different purposes.

It fits my T989 with the Diztronics case no problem and will fit any similar "thinness" case. Snug, but no problem. I looked at the D30 case the other day and put them up against each other and while the left to right size are identical the front to back on the D30 is a bit more and my guess is it wouldn't fit. I was surprised when my Diztronic case fit but it did NOT need to be forced, just a slight push. For $11 you really can't go too wrong.

thanks I ordered one
They are still tight on the base, and would tip over if you pushed them. They're fairly stable, but it is kind of a pain to use one hand to hold the base grab the phone.
I did fix that today. I went out into the alley behind the loft and grabbed a brick. A few minutes after meeting the dremel and a little bit of epoxy, they're stable.
http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6233/6366960059_565143ef63_b.jpg
That's what the stands look like mounted to the brick, and in the Body Glove Diamond cases. I did play a little with some LEDs and lighting the bases up, since they're clear/black acrylic and the light travels through them. I'm going to hold off on that for now, but maybe soon.
to choking am a bit confuse on ur pic is that just a stand whit out the option of charging or a stand whit charger?
There is a cable that comes up behind the stand, and snaps into the stand. It charges, and I bet you could use the stand for other phones, but I can't guarantee that. I know it works fine with the T989.
Well thx for ur response ill see if i get my hands on one this on up coming week

We just got my husband a droid 2 global (same size as droid 2) and we're trying to find a case that will fit the car dock with the extended battery. I have a Droid X with the extended battery, and I was unable to find a case to fit it with the car dock (I ended up getting a Zagg skin). I expect that we'll have to same issue with his phone. The D2 extended battery doesn't add too much thickness, but enough to make a difference with cases. We haven't gotten the car dock yet since I want to get it for him for xmas, so I want to make sure that the case he gets will fit it. Has anyone had any luck with a case for the D2/D2G with the extended battery and car dock?

Might not be exactly what you are looking for, but have you seen the "Clingo" products from Allsop? They have a special sticky pad that any phone will stick to, and then you just peel he phone off - I got one in anticipation of me having a Milestone 2, and my wife having an iPhone 4. Obviously, without it being a true docking solution, you'd have to have a separate cable for charging purposes, but I'm tackling that with a USB cable terminating with a socket at the holder, and a two short cables (one for iPhone, and a micro USB for the Milestone).
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Steve.
Interesting, thanks for the idea!
I believe the standard VZ cases might fit the bill. The wife got a blue hardshell and it's slightly larger around the battery area and looks like its made to accept a larger battery and it fits nicely in the VZ car dock.
How do you feel about your X? I am debating dumping the D2 for the X. I have another week to decide.

Yes, it works quite nicely, fits the extended battery bump, and a removable plastic backing comes off of the car dock to allow room for the case. I love it!

As an addendum to this - I've found that if I attach a small magnet to the back of the Clingo (in the right place), this even engages the "Car Dock" user interface of the Milestone when I stick it to the holder.
Here is what I just found out.
I just took a Droid Car Dock from Verizon right out of the box. It was brand new. I removed the Droid2 insert and then tried to place my Droid2 Global with a VZW Case into the dock. It would not fit. The reason the insert comes out is so the dock can support the original droid with the included adapter. From my un-scientific test I just did, the VZW Car dock will not work with a case on it.

It depends on the case my rubbery Droid 2 case will only fit if I squeeze it in (because the rubber grips the plastic). But hard cases that aren't too big should fit (but not with the extending battery unless there is a specific case for the dock.)

I got the Otterbox for my Xoom when it first arrived, having 2 kids and chucking it in and out of the car I was wanting something hardy to protect the device.
However after a few months now its a bit too bulky for what I want.
Does anyone here have a decent folio job they can recommend thats protective enough without the bulk?
Preferably in the UK, I like the look of the Zoogue one with its handstrap come headrest strap but to get one and get it shipped over here is going to cost £50..

Mines just turned up, you can have the device in the case but as the ports are covered you have to have the case open to plug the charger in, and because the charger is at the bottom you cant really have the Xoom on charge and use it at the same time, unless you have it in your hands, on that point the Otterbox wins as you can put it in its stand thing unside down and have the power cable in what is then the top, folio cases dont let you do that :/
Here's hoping the Xoom2 has its power in the side because with this folio you can access the power, camera, speakers, sim/sd slot, the only slots you cant access while its shut are the bottom ones, might not be an issue for the majority of users but tbh you would of thought that someone in Motorola's "asthetics" department would of tested it with at least there own accessory line....
I ended up getting this for my wife's Xoom and it works well while being much thinner than it looks in the pictures. Here is a link if you need:
http://www.amazon.com/Quality-Leath...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1321142040&sr=1-1
I bought the AYL case off Amazon. The current version has the bottom ports exposed.
I originally had the moto folio case, but I definitely prefer the AYL one, not just because the ports are exposed, but because it seems to be decent leather.

For a temp case it's bang on. Fits fine. Not too ugly. Dead cheap. £1.89 total price paid, shipped same day in a plain small jiffy bag.
Don't think there are any premium options at this stage either. The Casemate gear advertised on MobileFun and Expansys isn't in yet.

I am using exactly the sam case, it seems to be of decent enough quality. All the right holes in right places and right size. Like you say it fits absolutely perfect. I particuly like the bits over the power and volume buttons and the texture for extra grip. This case is an absolute bargain costing me less than £2

Got the same case as op bought off ebay all of the cases looked exactly the same.
why are all these cases making access holes for the dock connectors, when if you have a case on your phone, it will no longer sit in the dock?
I got this case in the post today and it fits perfectly.
Not too shabby for a temp case. Definately makes the phone easier to hold. Doesnt feel like its gonna slip out my hand anymore!
Think I am going to have to get a few.
Another positive experience here. Mine arrived today. Phone feels so much more solid in the hand. Thanks for the tip.
mine arrived today. Used link from the OP. Well pleased with the fit and look of the case for the price. The added grip is also MUCH appreciated!
Thanks again to the OP.

I guess there could be third-party docks that can fit the GN with a case on. Just need to make the fit loose enough and have long pogo pins.
Ive got the same case too and can confirm its a great fit and will do me until a proper good case comes out.
Quick update ... a few days in (and several times taken off and put back) and it hasnt stretched or warped at all ! very impreesive for the money
ive bought cheap covers before and usually regretted it but this ones a keeper
Hello, I have been searching for a while for the best case and purchased several cases, and I think for me, the pop case is the best of all. (I have some TPU cases from amazon, case mate tough case, and pop case ( I wanted to try the otterbox, but after using the pop case I am going to just use this case)
Picture qualities are pretty bad, but it gives pretty good idea how it looks life overall. I have a white one, and it really makes my Gnex much more fancy and its really rugged with dual protection, so no worries about dropping the phone. All the buttons works perfectly all ports are working great as well.
Does it add much bulk? I'm looking to get it.

I wonder if it works with the exttended battery?? Looks good
Yes it does fit very well with the extended battery. USB charger is not an issue if you have one that fits. Looks like Casemate removed the Pop and Tough case from their website. Could it be because they are looking into these issues?

Please and thank you
sorry mine is GSM and have no extended battery.
You can find them on eBay in Black, White and Pink. $28 and free shipping. Just search "galaxy case-mate pop!". I ordered the Black but it hasn't arrived.
My Case Mate Pop case is arriving today as well, if you are looking to buy it for $16! check this company out shipping is dirt cheap as well from them. http://www.thecellguru.com/Phones/Samsung/Galaxy_Nexus/Cases
I got the black one, great fit, great protection, great case. Bit of a bugger to get off in a rush though !
How is it pressing the power button and the volume rocker is it easy or do you really have to press it in to get the effect?
Easy peasy to press power and / or volume buttons. I sent back a case mate tough as I couldn't activate the buttons freely enough, the case mate pop is much much better, just a bit of a pain to get off
I just got my white pop case today. I am using it with the extended battery on the verizon cdma version. The case is amazing! Great protection, doesn't add much bulk, buttons work great, fits perfect with the extended battery, adds extra grippyness. Highly recommend. I got mine on ebay as well.
I can verify that the STOCK cable for the VERIZON GNEX does NOT fit the port in the case. I got the black/grey case today from my local Verizon store for $19.99.
My old HTC cable from my EVO 3d does fit though.

jeez the Pop case winds up covering one of the mics? that's kind of a downer... wish I came here prior to purchasing the case on Amazon especially since it's supposedly arriving today.
Is there a hole for the camera microphone? Seems like the Barely There and Tough case has a hole for it, but not the Pop! case.
I bought this dock http://www.ebay.com/itm/Desktop-Doc...293200?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item27c97f6250
I think it a generic dock designed to fit as many devices as possible. The shape of the dock doesn't match the phone. Without the case the phone is held just by the USB connector. With a case it is supported only from the back. The slot in the dock would work for a device at least 1/2" (12mm) thick. The bed of the slot is flat and GSIII bottom is curved, so the phone is wobbly. Basically, this dock is a ripped USB port waiting to happen. The rear connector for an USB cable is so deep in the case that cable falls off.
The dock is very cheap, now you know why.
Well its cheap for a reason.

+1, all you have to do is make a back support for the phone with some 1/16" aluminum sheet or something. I've done that to a number of iPhone docks in the past and it works perfectly.
