Official Samsung Docks

They are now listed available to order and will ship in three days, 1/23.
http://www.mycellworld.com/Samsung-OEM-Multimedia-Desktop-Dock-P182792877-P93055.htm
http://www.mycellworld.com/Samsung-OEM-Vehicle-Navigation-Mount-P182792874-P93056.htm
They both only list compatibility with the i515 so I wonder if they will work all the same with the i9250.

The car dock (second link) is the same one that's been on Samsung's website for a while:
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/ECS-K1F8BEGSTA
It DOES NOT have the pins for use on the side of the Nexus.
I'm looking for one that does have the pins so I don't have to unplug everything when I want to take the phone in and out of the dock.

The description for the car dock says you can plug your car charger directly to the mount. I'm so confused. I just want the pins...

Honestly I'd be happy just to use the desktop dock in my car. Double sided Velcro and stick it right to my dash. It's what I do with the car dock anyways (using the disk thing it comes with) and there's no annoying suction cup to worry about when the temperature drops. Plus it's lower profile and much easier to drop the phone in and out of. Especially when the suction doesn't want to play along.

I posted this mainly because I hadn't seen the multimedia dock available yet anywhere else, I just included the car dock link in case someone wanted both.

Seriously? $64.95 for a piece of plastic with USB headphone jacks wired to the prongs. Did Samsung subcontract this out to Monster Cables? Nice to be able to insert/remove phone wihout plugging/unplugging, but pricing is obscene.

Yes I made a thread asking about this about a week ago about a 3 pin charging cradle. Its finally coming out! .....and then I seen the price of the damn thing -.-

That is exactly the same thing I first noticed. As much as I want a dock for my phone there is no way I am going to spend 65 bucks on it plus another 10 dollars or so on shipping the stupid thing to me.

but does the official pogo pin car dock support VZW models?
i don't think it was made for the vzw models.

and why would you say its the old crappy version? just the price? the picture and discrption are of the good one. part number is even different although that could be their internal cataloging number. still no evidence of this being the old verizon model.
as for the price on the desktop dock, i'm assuming it has to do with the internals. has an hdmi output while only physicly connecting to the phone via 3-prong connector. supposedly the car dock sends audio to the mount via bluetooth and the mount is able to give you the aux output line from there. wondering if it is sending data to the home version the same way.

Well I know its no iPhone 4s in terms of volume, but how hard would it be to be for an aftermarket company to make a car cradle that works with pogo connectors? All you have to do is have raised spring loaded prongs so that it would work with a tpu case.

Desktop dock is pretty awesome, but a little too pricey. Nice find

The description of the desk dock looks pretty off. That thing DOES NOT have an HDMI port unless it comes with an extra wire to hook into the micro USB port. Take a look here for all the official dock options which may or may not arrive. http://www.droid-life.com/2011/12/02/samsung-galaxy-nexus-docks-and-chargers-get-a-proper-fondling-prongs-put-to-use/#more-54594

Try to find two DV casette cases and make this: http://imgur.com/a/wruWi#0 I'm going to add in Micro USB to HDMI® MHL Adapter soon to the bottom case and boom you've got yourself a media dock for less than $12.

guys did you think about one issue,that power button is at the same side as 3 gold pins ?? so inserted without root it would be pretty useless

Motorola Atrix Lapdock

I just purchased a Motorola Atrix Laptop dock and it should be here in a little over a week. I am curious though, I use an Otterbox Commuter series case... will i be able to use the lapdock without the removal of my case?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA

I don't have any case with my atrix+lapdock but I know that there is a piece in the lapdock connector that you can remove to allow the connection with a case.
Regards

Thank you very much.

Short answer, NO, even with removing the insert, the commuter will not fit. I had to physically modify (read hack) the case to pull the connectors further through the mounting location. The USB connector needs to come out further primarily.
Another option is to try a 5 wire micro usb extender, and a micro hdmi extension.

afaik the only cases which fit into lapdock-holder are mesh-cases (maybe, see other thread) and the incipio feather (which - I can confirm - fits in any other original-motorola dock).

The Motorola ruggedized battery cover also fits nicely.

I would also like to know the outcome of this. I use the commuter case as well.

The Incipio silicrylic case does not fit into the lapdock either. Only the HDMI connection is made, not the power, so the lapdock thinks only entertainment center is an option. I may just go for the rugged battery cover.

This is a better price if you are living overseas! The previous cable was $15 USD with a $35 delivery charge to Australia. This set is now $40 + $5 delivery fee for both cables to Australia!

Which seller offers the best price shipping overseas.

Does anyone know where can i buy this HDMI upgrade kit for cheap ? 45 dolar for 2 pieces of cable is simply raping.

The micro usb is easy, the mini hdmi will require an adapter. The mini hdmi female to mini hdmi female adapter was at the bottom of the page on my search.

I can confirm that these cables work fine with my Rooted Stock Atrix - make sure you take out the extra plastic plate and fits together comfortably. It will be interesting to see if the other Moto phones with the reversed ports (Bionic, Razr, Atrix II etc) will work as well on it as well.. Hopefully they do if I decide to get an upgrade sometime soon.
It is expensive - but at least it works.

Galaxy Nexus Desktop Dock Now available @ Expansys

Hi All,
just thought I would let you know the Desktop dock is now available from Expansys UK @ £49.99, showing 100+ in stock.
The price is not the best, but its the only place with stock at the moment.
Thanks

Just got mine from amazon

Got mine from Amazon (Germany) too, yesterday... like it very much, and got a nice surprise when the stock launcher went into portrait mode while docked --- EDIT: oh sorry, I meant Landscape mode of course.

It only charges the phone?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

From the looks of it only charging and audio + the infamous dock mode or at least thats what says on the site .

Can anyone check if it works with the CDMA version? What about the extended battery?

I am kinda upset now that this is available when I just spent some money on a MHL adapter.

I'm all for the desktop dock, but the issue I have is that little USB jack in the ass end of my phone is very delicate, and I'd rather not "jam" it down on any metal jack over and over and....you get the point.
Admittedly with dropbox and so forth the micro USB jack is only good for flashing roms, and for now charging.
I'm holding out for the pogo pin adapter.
A long time ago with my first microusb jack phone on my USB A to Micro USB Male cord I took the male jack and filed the "hooks" off of the USB connector so that it slid in easily with no force at all. I found it hard to gauge the force due to the "hooks" pushing back or a misalignment being the case.
I don't see the dock on Amazon or Expansys US sites, can anyone post a link?

I'd like a link as well.
Unfortunately for me, I was able to damage the USB port on the galaxy nexus (don't ask me how, I have no idea), and once I get the replacement part I wouldn't like to take the risk again.
It's a bit overpriced, but I think it looks cool to use it as a clock at side of my bed. Would be nice too if a USB port was on it, but I think it doesn't.

Hey, it is not possible to turn the screen off while on this dock? I do not see a way to hit the power button like the car dock has (the button extension on the car dock itself).... That would really be a bummer....

Can anyone post a pic of the back?
I want to see if it works with the seidio extended battery.

I just called customer service to see why my order is still being processed and they told me it will be out of stock until april 10th. I wasn't going to play this "oh its coming next week" every week game with them, so I cancelled my order... I'll just buy from Amazon.de or Amazon.co.uk

Yes thank you, i wondered how people had got mixed up with the HDMI dock, which is obviously named and looks a lot different.........
so what you guys rate it out of 10? the reason i ask is i have a tendancy to break to micro usb ports on my phones, and think the pogo pins would save me from doing this....
thanks guys!!!

USB Dock Station for Galaxy Note for only $6.78 + Free Shipping

Hi All,
I was searching for USB Dock for Note and found THIS on eBay.
for only $6.78 + Free Shipping :laugh:
I saw many of THE SAME docks going for $19.99 - $24.99 on eBay and Amazon,So this is definitely a good Deal IMO.
One Another Good thing is Economy International Shipping is also cheap on this.
only $1.99 to INDIA in my case. So gifted one to my buddy!!!
I dont know if I plug in MHL cable in back and use it as HDMI Dock
That would be awesome
-----------------------------------------------What Works and What Dose not------------------------------------------------
1. MHL Cable : NO (You can not connect MHL cable behind the Dock to do HDMI out )
2. Data X'fer : YES (You can simply attach your data cable to Computer to Transfer files to/from Phone)
3. USB OTG : ??? (Dont know why anybody would do this but i will check it tonight see if it works!)

Thnx.

I ordered one of these to station on my bedside cabinet, so my note would act as a nice alarm clock. The unit is reasonably solid, but feels a little unstable out of the box (it wants to tip over backwards if placed on a less than solid surface, e.g. carpet)). However, once you plug your power cable into it this seems to help with the stability due to the location of the socket.
The unit itself has a very subtle light on the top, like a thin white crescent, to show when the unit is powered, and the contour of the aperture fits the Note's body perfectly. In fact, it holds it incredibly tightly, so I have no risk of accidentally knocking the note out of the cradle during a particularly robust "bedroom gymnastics" session with Mrs RTR, if you get my drift.
All in all, I'm more than happy with mine.

I tried a few different docks, but ultimately decided to go dock-free, simply because these docks are pretty much only usable with the Note naked, whereas I prefer leaving my Note in its case 24-7.

I don't blame you.
But I almost never use any phone with cases. I sure buy couple but like after week or two stop using them.They make them phones thick.
But I recently dropped my note , and it has scratch/ding . So back to case till the dock arrives.

There are some docks now appearing which have removable rubber inserts which claim to accommodate the Note with a Gel/TPU case, e.g.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Desktop-C...-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-i9220-AC32-/170817592805
Anybody tried one?

Thanks.
BTW I offered the seller 5.99 ea. for two,he gave me $6.49 for TWO.
So try offering him lower price. not a huge saving but hey dosent hurt to try!

Just read the description on the eBay page and looks like it ships only with the cradle and no cable included ...

MHL dont work!
Well apparently, this dock is only good for charging / desk clock only.
you can not use MHL cable behind the dock and HDMI out.
It doses charges via MHL cable but dose not do HDMI out.
I know tht part sucks the most, but that is what it is.

I have the same one from deal extreme. The dock was a little snug at first, but has loosened to a great fit. I've been using my phone as an alarm clock for a long time now and I can finally see the dang thing without picking it up now. Only thing I wish it had was a home button on the base so I could wake the phone without pushing it back. Overall I'm very happy for $12 shipped.

i like it, but can't buy, because i'm living in vn, so......

Charging dock for Note 10.1

I was looking for a charging stand so I can watch my Slingbox while my Note charges and found the Myrin Sync & Charge Dock on Ebay. It folds for portability and can be used either to charge or just support the Note. Because it has no sides, it can work with any Sammy Tab that has the 30 pin connector (nice as I have 3 around the house) and I don't have to remove the case to charge.

Nice find.

Good Stand
Very nice, looking for similiar stand kits with charging port :victory:

Hi couple of question does it has its own charging adapter or we use the stock samsung one
Also the case you have looks cool how much did you get that for

The eBay item says USB cable included, but I doubt you get the charger.

I think this original accessory should also do the trick:

Thanks, but that one has been discussed at length in other threads here. The OP's contribution is a link to a dock that has not previously been seen or discussed. :good:

It comes with a USB cable but not the charging block. You could use your original cable as well it just slots into the base as shown in the photo.
The case is from deal extreme for $15. It's Pleather and has the 3 viewing angles.

The HDMI adapter is, for some reason best known to Samsung, far thicker than the charging cable, so I'd sadly guess not.
