Anyone ordered this dock?

Looks pretty good and has room to charge another battery while your phone is docked and charging.

Hm.. nice find. That is tempting. I wish it was a bit cheaper.
I'll probably pick one up anyways to use at work. Looks like it won't fit a tbolt with a case.

Yeah looks like the TB will have to be naked to fit in this dock. Please post your review as soon as you get it.

If you wait a bit, I'm certain you'll be able to find it cheaper on ebay. You should start seeing other chineese companies selling them for much less, but shipped from China (slower to get here though).
I have the Incredible dock that is similar, and hacked it up to hold the phone with a case on it (doesn't look pretty, but it DOES work).

yep i bought one from amazon...listed that its for the merge but it fits....its tight but it fits...also it has to be naked..which sucks, but the for the price its a good deal

no it doesnt .....and scratch this off your list....it stopped working this morning....the usb charger part for the phone died....returning to amazon now!

was it the adapter that died or the connected cord or plug set in the dock? would love to buy this, especially for the price.

Thanks for the Amazon link, been looking for a dock with spare battery charger for cheap.

i was going to buy this but not now since it stopped working for you

I had that problem on my charger for the DInc, and it ended up the actual USB plug housing had split apart, and the plug was sliding back into the housing. I ended up fixing it (mine came from china, so no recourse there), and it still works fine. Just curious if that was the problem with your unit or not.
Also looks like you can get it cheaper on ebay now. As with anything from China, you take a gamble on quality... I might pick one up and see if it works with my pop case, although the USB header might be a tad too short to reach and some plastic will definitely have to be shaved off to get it to fit the back.

Anyone find a charger without the big extra battery back?

Yes, it has to be naked in order to fit into the dock.
I have 23 of these in stock... tested one and it works great.
Any questions let me know.

I ordered one too - figured not too big of a risk for that $$ and my TB will be staying naked anyway. $25 shipped on Ebay vs $60(!) for the official one.
Edit:
Funny, as soon as I posted this, the dock arrived - FAST shipping! The dock is not bad, works fine. The only complaint I have is that the phone is held almost completely vertical, no angle at all really. So that makes it a little awkward for watching video but not too bad. Charges fine, USB works fine, insertion and removal is easy. As stated before, you cannot use a case with this dock, it is a snug fit. Slot on the back for charging a second battery.
Time will tell with the durability, but it serves my needs well - easy place to plug in and charge at my office desk. Recommended especially considering the price. If the HTC dock has HDMI (I doubt it) then maybe it will be worth $60. In the meantime this is shipping and shipping fast!

I'd buy one of these if the extended battery would fit on the dock :/

I ordered one as well, and your complaint is the same as mine...
The phone is almost vertical when docked.
I will not be using it.
In fact if anyone wants it, I'd sell it for 20 bucks shipped (US only).

FWIW Newegg has them for $28, but they are out of stock right now....

[Review] RnD charging dock w/spare battery charger

Hey everybody. I'm reviewing the RnD charging dock that charges a spare battery. It isn't the 3 pin charger, its a micro USB charger. I've had one of these for my thunderbolt and I liked it.

On Amazon, it didn't specify if it was for the LTE or GSM version. Its for the GSM version. Although the LTE version fits with both the standard and extended battery (which is what I got), the spare battery slot on the back will only fit the standard GSM battery which is smaller than the LTE so no guys, the spare slot does not charged any extended battery nor the LTE standard battery as I've tried
The dock has a micro USB port in the back and it comes with a USB wall adapter which is like and I think it charges the phone pretty damn quit
There is a blue light in they front that tells you its charging. It only stays blue. I wish it would turn red to tell you its fully charged but it only stays blue. Not much of a big deal but its just something I wished it would do
On Amazon it says it fits without taking the case off your phone. Obviously for us LTE users, its a no go. But for GSM users, I'm sure it will take a really thin case to fit into the cradle. I'm not sure if you can notice very small spaces in the pictures before but those are supposed to be for the case to fit
I do not recommend this but I do have a thin case on my LTE GNex that I got from Best Buy when I bought it and I managed to get it to fit into the dock with some force but I do not recommend it lol
Okay guys for $20, this isn't a bad option to have til we wait for the 3 pin dock to come out. I enjoyed RnD in the past and I expect to enjoy it again. Hope someone I some how helped someone out there with this little review. Any questions just ask
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B006O45K9C/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1327594113&sr=8-1

Thanks for the review. I wonder if it will fit the GSM version with a casemate barely there case. I may just buy it.. lol

I just bought this too
I just purchased this dock and i agree. good quality and fits like a glove. nice weight to it too, so you can use the touchscreen without it feeling like its going to fall over.
on top of that. i just got the 2100mah extended battery with the larger battery cover... and it fits! a bit tighter... but not a problem at all.

I noticed in your pics that there was no insert/adapter. Mine came with an additonal plastic insert that snapped into the dock. I dont use a case, and this made it fit snugly.

Damn..
Had made up my mind and started ordering this one.. But they wont send to Europe/Denmark and ask me to try amazon.co.uk.. But they dont have this one on their site..
Have tried to find it on other sites, but without luck :S - If you know another site selling this - please let me know..
If anyone here at XDA would buy this one for me and sent it to Denmark, I would appriciate that and and I will of course pay all costs..
Edit.. found it on another site

Lol I never got that insert

Came home from work to find mine chilling in the door and my first thought was a "meh". It fits my LTE GN with the official extended battery well (snug, but I'm not fighting to dock it) and it's balanced enough that I feel secure that it's not about to tip over in use. As said before, the second battery charger isn't big enough for the LTE battery, but I wasn't planning on using that anyhow.
Overall, it's a good deal better than the *nothing* I was using, but I'm a little annoyed that the listing on Amazon didn't indicate which version of the device was for. Given what I know now, I don't regret picking it up, but doing it over again, I would have likely kept shopping around.

Agreed. I would have really liked it if they said if it was for the GSM or LTE version but as you said, better than nothing and doesn't really look that bad. If I would to start over, I might have to go with the Seidio one

NEW! Galaxy Nexus Metal Skin Frame Bumper--Verizon Compatible

Hey everyone, i was going through Ebay and noticed that they finally got a new design
for that aluminum bumper case they've been selling. I've seen this one before in another
thread but there was never a link for us to purchase. This case seems to be a lot thinner
than the previous Aluminum bumper. I already purchased a silver one.

What do y'all think?

looks good let us know how it goes .
seems to me it would fit an extended battery
But I don't see how the cover fits on !

They do look nice and hopefully someone can get some pics of them on their Nexus's. And hopefully they do fit the Verizon version. I know Aluminum bumpers dont have any give in them and thats why they have been incompatible before so hope the description is accurate.

I'm assuming that the case is a snap on. I was looking at some of the Cruzer Lite cases, but I think this will be a decent replacement for about the same price.

The case itself is two pieces but I think its more of a slip on bumper than a snap on. You can refer to this post to check out a review.

Are you sure these work for the Verizon version? I couldn't find any info that would point to that on the ebay page :/

Um... you do realize that the VZW version is thicker right?

I've found that people will list the Verizon Model in the item name but sell accessories that do not fit the Verizon model.
For example, I bought this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/30070173227...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_2978wt_1275
Not noticing the description said:
"Galaxy Nexus CDMA SCH-i515, Galaxy Nexus GSM i9250"
And ended up with a case that didn't fit properly. When I messaged them about it they said I ordered the wrong thing regardless of how the item was named.
As a result I tend to look in the description for the specific word Verizon before I get anything.
If the one you get fits that'd be great. This is just a heads up if anything

Hey joey. Good find. Let us know when you get it if it does indeed fit, I'm actually really interested to see if it would. I'm also wondering if it would fit extended batteries based on the fact that it appears to be more of a bumper than a case.

According to the initial review thread of this Aluminum Bumper it fits Verizon Galaxy Nexus perfectly well.

The ones from that thread might not be the same cases as the one mentioned in the OP. Just have to wait and see to test it out and confirm if they fit the Verizon version

The case on the picture is exactly the same. The cutouts and sliding mechanism are the same all the way. It's just good to see those bumpers are now available without direct export. Enjoy them they look good in real.

Looks pretty neat. I'm wondering if it affects the phone's signal. $15...I'd like to review it but kinda expensive for a case.

Most people had issues with GPS after using this case. I thought I remember hearing it messed with cell signal as well, but I can't remember; if you do a search you can see that these are not worth it.

qi wireless request

hi just received my long awaited qi wireless pad from china only to find it does not include the receiver part that fits over battery,bahh!!!
does anyone know where i can purchase one from in the UK ,Dont want to wait all that time again ,your help would be greatly appreciated .

sorry, but that seems to be the only choice unless you can find an ebay seller who sells in the UK.
You might want to contact that seller to get them to ship the receiver pad to you.
I would've suggested against getting the transmitter from them to begin with though. apparently the 2nd gen ones are picky and unreliable.

cant believe how cheap the items are!!

Something you don't want to hear, is these receiver are becoming unreliable just like the transmitter, with cases reported to either DOA or stop working after a while with some of the new batches, there are some good new, it's only a small %.
Apparently it's all related to rushed production with bad QC due to great demand.
Mostly with the name 'Charmlink' printed on the front label, so it's best to ask if there is warranty for them.

Another option for Canada and USA buyers, this guarantees no bulky look because it replaces a new cover for you.:good:

that's pretty slick. Should have been stock from Samsung so cases were built off those specs. I would imagine any case that fits well won't work with that cover. Still pretty sweet setup.

that back piece will not fit with any case whatsoever. It's a different size and you'll either have to mod the case or the battery cover.
The receiver pad by itself would add a slight bump that can be circumvented with a more "restricting" case like the otterbox or the ballistic sg

That's because the new case makes the phone thicker, but no bulk because the bulk is hidden by the thickness of the cover..... That's why ,out of all those pics in the Ad, not one shows what the inside of the Cover looks like....LOL...they are thinking it will scare buyers off...lol.,...

got my Qi pad from Fasttech today. Ordered the 28th, shipped the 30th. Arrived today. Currently $14.80 shipped Also got the wireless charger from Nokia. $38 with company discount (otherwise about $50) from ATT or Verizon. Works like a champ.
Fun Facts
Fits under OEM cover. Small Hump, barely noticeable. (< 1/16 inch hump)
Diztronic TPU Matte Black Case fits great
Charges about 10% in 30 Minutes. Similar to plug.
NFC works fine. Zero issues.
for Reference, I am running DarthStalker X, Stock Kernel.

yup. the Qi receiver pad seems the be the best choice in terms of getting to put your own case of choice as well as not losing NFC at the same time.
I believe the charging speed is a little faster than usb but slower than AC (according to the receiver pad).
the more flexible cases seem to be the ones that can cope with the bump.

Could anyone recommend a trusted website or seller to by the charging pad from?

I know they aren't optimal, but I figured if it works it would be a good hold over until good ones come out for the G3 specific.

I will let you know when my phone gets in, I have one left over from my LG G2. I don't see why it shouldn't work though.

That one is on Amazon, Prime, and has 2 different models. Anyone seen a close enough photo to know which one we'd need? Port A or Port B?
I'm going to try to find one with a metal plug instead of this plastic one.

This one has tons of different options. Less than $11 on prime.

No didn't even register on the phone. It was only $7. I ended up ripping out the Quick Circle charging coil and putting it in my phone. Works a treat!

Yes sorry can't remember where I bought it from. I think eBay? This is it...

Im using this one; http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HI8JYFE/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
No problems after all. Working OK with my F400K

So now its working? Awesome! Buying 2 right now.

Mine works as well, I have this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IQ2GUFI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
BUT it only works if i have the receiver stuck on the back of the phone in between it and the phone case. If I have it on top of the battery the signal doesn't make it through.. perhaps because of the curved nature of the phone and the NFC receiver on the inside of the back cover.

I was always under the impression that NFC and wireless charging interfered with each other unless it was one integrated unit. That's probably why yours only works that way.

Well I got mine and tried it out, and while it does work, kind of, I'm sending them back. The cable ribbon is so thin it feels like it is going to rip, it would also need you to bend it at a bad angle to get it inside a case or inside the back. I can't get a GOOD charging connection with my TYLT VU chargers, so it is going back.

The cable ribbon is probably thin because you need to bend it at weird/sharp angles and it has to fit in the cracks of the back or case. As long as you're not constantly pulling on it, there's really no risk of tearing. Connections are fine with my $20 chargers, I can drop it on pretty much anywhere in the vicinity of the receiver and it'll charge.
Charge rate depends on which receiver you go with. Most, including the ones posted here, are 500mA which is kind of slow. I should be getting an 800mA one soon so hopefully that'll pick up the pace. IMO, these are still better than switching to PMA.

Its not so much the thin that bothers me, it is how flimsy it is. I mean it could have some reinforcement of some kind you'd think. And it leaves the pad really low on the phone, probably part of the reason it doesn't connect well even with a QI pad a good as the TYLT VU. Just removing the thing to root my device was scary, I thought the USB plug was going to tear off and stay in.
I just bought 2 battery covers with integrated Qi/NFC for $23 each on ebay (my wife got a G3 also) so that should fix the issues for me. Not sure what the VU charges at, but with my Nexus 5 it was always great, for a heavy user like me, I was satisfied (Qi dock in my car too).

What kind of qi car dock do you have? I love the wireless charging and have seen a few posts you put on XDA. I ordered that back plate from eBay, hopefully it works OK and I had ordered the sticker from China but it seems like a pain in the ass ripping off the old one.

Let me find a link for you. Been really happy with it. Glad my posts are helping folks!

Do you have a link to the ones you bought? Also could you post some pictures when you receive and install them?
