I know the Car Dock comes with an insert for the phone if you do, or don't have a case on it. Confirmed today that the laptop dock does too. I assume that all the docks have this, but haven't seen an entertainment dock or standard dock. If anyone can confirm with pics, it would be greatly appreciated. Here's the laptop dock one in pics attached to this post.

I don't have pics but the Multimedia dock and Standard dock are the same way
I've got the MM dock and the car dock, and have played with the charging and LT docks in store. All have the little panel that pops out. The speck sorta works with the MM, charging, and LT docks, but not at all with the car dock. I now have the feather, which works with all 4.
I have the BodyGlove case from AT&T, and it works great on the laptop and car dock.
Son of a mother f*cking b*tch!!!!!! I already sent back my standard dock!!!!!!!!!
I have a Otterbox Commuter case, do you think that it would fit with the insert removed? The micro plug was really close to getting there, just couldn't make it work.
I know that even with my thin Body Glove case, the phone wouldn't even think of fitting in the laptop, but with the insert out, fits with ease. Could work fine, but I haven't dealt with the Commuter case yet.

I hate you... thanks for the info. guess I might re-order and give it a try.

Wait a minute... I'll run down to the local AT&T store, they always have the Atrix in the Multimedia dock (same dimensions as the standard dock). I'll pop out the insert there and see if my case will fit.

Yep, my store didn't get the multimedia dock, just the laptop dock. We haven't recieved the otterbox defender in either, only seen them online. Best of luck, let us know what you find.
Well, no dice with the otterbox commuter case... I went to the local AT&T store, took the insert out of the standard dock, and the micro adapter still wouldn't reach. You should have seen the look on the dumb ass sales persons face... haha priceless.
I'm also assuming the otterbox defender case will not work either, as it is larger than the commuter case. Thanks anyway, still good info. to know.
Well I hope I'm not a thread-killer as I posted this several days ago in another thread and never had any comments on it...
I searched around on many forums but found no discussions about the "larger case" insert documented in the manual, at least for the Multimedia dock.
It's listed in the manual as part number SJYN0722A. The manual indicates that it is included when purchasing the dock and is for use with a "ruggedized" case. This is also referenced at Motorola's FAQ on accessories for use with a "2 shot battery door fit plate", whatever that is/was.
The insert that is being removed is part number SJYN0723A.
Anyone have this 22A insert or know anything about it? Was it discontinued before the docks were even released?
I have the Incipio Feather case and have removed the insert as discussed to use it in the Multimedia dock. It works, but does not physically support the phone at all as others have mentioned.
Thanks!

Not killing the thread at all, more info is always welcome. I would assume that the other part number is just the dock connector with no insert on it.
Sorry to double post if you already put this up, hadn't seen anything and it was cool to find out.
Thanks link12245
The manual specifically speaks to two inserts. One for just the phone and one for "over-sized" cases.
I guess that it never made it to production and Motorola didn't change the manuals....
motorola forgot to add the plate
i spoke to motorola support @ 800-734-5870, they acknowledged that the plate (part #: SJYN0722A) should have been included. they will refund the full amount for the dock & advised me to repurchase it online. the newer docks now includes this part.

I was going to call support, but thought I would ask around first.
I purchased this from Amazon and got it last week. I'll see if they have new stock for a return and/or give Motorola a call to see if I can find out who has fresh stock that has the insert.
Has anyone seen any cases that open up so that the 30pin port is exposed at the top and is easily accessed? I know the tab would be upside down but I don't care about the front facing camera as i have no use for it but I do want to be able to easily use the usb or sd card adapter or even the hdmi adapter while it's in the case
I know the official Samsung is like this but I was wondering of any others are something an inverted multi-angle roocase
Hey,
has anybody already tried out the docking station?
Is it possible to fit the Note including a flip case into the station?
Does the station have an audio/video out or is it only for charging?

Sorry... docking station ? More details please?.
It has a speaker out port, but sadly is not compatible with the flip case; too much extra bulk around the side and back. Very nice if you don't use the flip case, though, the Note slips easily into the dock, and it looks elegant.

According to this video starting at the 10 sec mark; it fits fine with the flip cover.

Wow, that docking is pretty nice. It looks like the leather flip cover will still work with it. Now the questions is where can I get one.
i received it today, its nice and much easy to put and pull the phone. in the box there is only the dock, they dont add nothing else. u can turn it landscape (with the phone docked). 49€ with shipping, in italy, expensive...

34 Euro is the cheapest I could find here in Germany.. still very expensive @[email protected]
I wouldn't say it fits fine with the flip case; because of the extra bulk on the side, some pressure is required to jam it in, and because of the extra bulk on the back, the Note has to be tilted forward to mate with the USB connector, and you can't just drop it into the dock. You can make it work, but it's really not comfortable, and I'd be worried about damaging the connector. If they showed someone dropping it into the dock on the video, it would not look quite such a good combination.
That Dock would be just perfect if it came with an external battery fitted within it to be used as a stand while away from a power source.
Might still get one though.

Is that a BROWN flip case???? I thought they all Black?
Here are some nice pictures by a German fellow:

The official dock does not seem to allow use of an MHL adaptor on the back of the dock. Power still goes to the Note but no HDMI output. Tried several times, even tried internal/external speakers settings in "Dock" but no difference - still no video.
Can anyone else confirm?
PS. The dock does not come with a power supply, you just use you existing PSU/lead.

Have you actually experienced this, or are you speculating? I don't believe the Samsung flip case adds any extra bulk at the back, as it replaces the original back cover.

I have the cover and dock. I watched the video and though the Note did fit in the dock with the cover and ordered both, but it doesn't.
One the left side the back cover is thicker to allow room for the leather flap. You can still use the dock by titling the phone forward at the top but the the only thing supporting the phone is the dock connector.
Once I get a screen protector I'll remove the cover as I'd like to use the dock and it will be easier to use with my car dock.
The case does make holding the phone easier and it feels more secure in your hand.

Yes, I have. The back is more substantial than the rather flimsy original battery cover, making e.g., the camera more recessed, and the extra width of the flap doesn't help the device slide down, either.
So is the dock useless if you have the flip cover-case on? Or can you use the dock, although the phone doesn´t fit "perfectly"? I´m considering getting both accessories, but am a bit confused.

I wouldn't use them together. It's a really tight fit because of the flip on the left, so doesn't slide down as easily as the naked Note, and needs to be jammed in. Because of the thicker battery cover, when the microUSB connector is mated, the Note is tilted forward, putting stress on the connector.

Handtec.co.uk is a lot cheaper on all the Note accessories.
Just viewed this item in store.
It is available at some stores
1. Does NOT come with charging cable.
2. Does NOT use the POGO Pins on the side of the phone.
3. Does hold the GSM Gnex securely.
4. Uses a cutout in dock bottom to allow plugging and unplugging Micro USB.
5. Does allow button function though the case of dock.
$40 for a belt clip with a suction cup? Sounds like I wont be getting it then, why are car docks so expensive. Suction cups don't work for my car anyway, so I'll hold out for something else, preferably cheaper.
Are you sure it was the Samsung model? I'm pretty sure the US model will be like the UK one http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=2w7TgFmP74I#!

It said Samsung on the dock, but Verizon Galaxy Nexus on the box, there maybe more than one model maybe they could not get the pins to line up? This was definitely the cheap version, not the one I have seen on the UK websites.
Looks like I will be ordering on line, only problem is it seems the good one using the POGO pins will not be available for quite a while
lmao. If you want to freak passengers out or people behind you @ night, rip off your rear view mirror, put the uk dock in its place and turn on the camera. Good times. Good times.

Pretty sure their reaction was "Look, that idiot ripped his rearview mirror off, and replaced it with a cell phone. Not sure what that's all about, but he looks as happy as a retard in a crayon factory."
As we all know the SGS3 is the same across the board physically and I set out to get some accessories day 1.
I'm with T-Mobile and they had some screen protectors the day I bought it and nothing else.
I then went to VZW and they only had some gloss purple cases and the multimedia dock. Got the multimedia dock.
I wanted a case with a kickstand so I then set off for AT&T and got the casemate (white/grey) with kickstand - fits pretty good. AT&T also had this screen protector that came in pebble blue and white - and its supposed to be bubble free and last the life of the phone (i-zig or something). Looked pretty slick on the Galaxy Note.
I haven't been to Sprint yet but plan to stop there soon.
So what have you found and bought?
Why are u buying accessories at the phone retail store?
Whatever u found at ATT retail store, you can found on amazon for half the price.
Just because, the fact that I can walk out and just get it when I want it makes it happen for some people.
Update!
So I was pleasently surprised when my phone with the Casemate case (from AT&T) on would fit into the multimedia dock from VZW. I was apprehensive at first due to my experiences with my HTC Sensation having a case on not being able to fit into HTC docks for the Thunderbolt.
No such issue (so far) for the SGS3.
A side note - I am guessing it was done on purpose but the SGS3 is heavily borrowing from HTC IMO with the lockscreen launch apps and the dock mode that kicks in automatically when you dock your device.
It just dawned on me to give the SGS2 a twirl on the mmdock... be back after charging.
Success! The Multi-Media Dock works for the SGS2. When docked it will present multiple options if available. For me it was "Clock" and "TuneIn Radio Pro".
"Clock" is "dock mode" Once plugged into the USB port audio will come out the backside through the "line-in" to whatever stereo/speakers are plugged in. This also means if you have a home theater you can plug it into that for the SGS2/3 and I'm even going to assume the Note.
The one down side to the SGS2 is that it WILL NOT fit with BodyGlove kickstand case snapped on. Suckage...
What I would like to see next is a true Multi-Media Dock that has a HDMI port built in so you can plug it into your TV all while being docked.
