I have the seido battery. Any other accessory i should get for my evo? I'm thinking about a car dock but don't know which one to get and a case that will work with the seido battery
I don't use a case. But the car dock is excellent. The seidio battery and the seidio car dock are perfect accessories. This setup is awesome.
Thanks I was thinking about getting that. Does it charge your phone while it's on the dock?

Yes it does. Just got mine a few days ago. If you use Custom Car Home you can get it to auto enable bluetooth, turn off wifi, etc...

That would be awesome!
Hi guys I am looking for a charging dock for my Samsung galaxy s 3. However, this is the problem I want a dock that would fit my phone with an otterbox on it. I have the commuter series otterbox. Most of the dock I found say that they would fit with cases. But would the dock fit my case. I am not really in a hurry but I would like to get one before Christmas.

If anybody else is looking for a dock this works perfectly

Does anyone know if there is a dock that will work with the Speck case? I have been staying away from docks due to me having to remove my case each time I place my phone on the dock.

I have a couple of the RND docks (1 with the extra battery charging slot and 1 without) and they have a removable insert so you can use it with or without a case. I am using a TPU case on my phone and the cradle works great.

I have bought a Zenis dock, wich works with my tpu case also.

I've got the wireless charging battery cover from Verizon on my phone. It makes the phone a bit thicker. I was wondering if there were any cases out there that can accommodate the extra size. I currently use a Cruzerlite case that I cut a little bit to allow expansion but I'd like something a bit cleaner.
TIA for any input!

You can get wireless charging inlays that fit inside the original battery lid and as such don't increase the thickness of the device
Interesting, never heard of that. Do you have a link?

They're practically impossible to miss, just search ebay or any number of other places for "s3 qi inlay"
Has anyone experienced any issues with the inlays? I just got a wireless qi charger and the Verizon rear case for the phone and have just been putting up with the added thickness. I wouldn't mind considering the inlays though.

They make it a bit thicker and bow the back out very slightly.
To those who currently have a qi wireless charger. Few questions as I'm about to get one.. Does the charging pad get warm? Is it ok to keep plugged in or could it be a possible fire hazard? Stupid question, I know, but I have a hard time trusting cheap stuff from china, lol. Does wireless charging charge as fast as USB? Thanks!

Occasionally. Yes it's fine. And it depends on the pad and the receiver on your phone. Mine is 650mA so it's slightly faster than USB

I wouldn't skimp on the stuff tho. I spent like $50 for my charging pad. Its got two spots and it's made by Energizer.
Sent from my Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk 4
the pad can get warm but it's fine.
it's not going to blow up or anything.
you can also keep an eye out for the dt500 charging pad that nokia has for the lunia series. they go on sale often for $25.

1. Slightly warm when in use.
2. Yes, it's fine to leave it plugged in. My one at my office desk sits on top of a pile of papers and hasn't set anything on fire yet.
I personally own this receiver (which I use with this pad, though my pads are black rather than white), which works well though my lifeproof case. No dice with the Otterbox Armour case though.
I'd recommend avoiding this charger. It doesn't work worth a damn through a case and constantly connects/disconnects.
I have the same receiver inlay as compo01, using it with a variety of pads, including an official Samsung S4 one that I modded into an ugly but functionally awesome dock

I have the ghost charger that they sell at Verizon. I woke up this morning and my phone showed 116 F. Is that super hot for a phone?

I should add I'm running CM 10.1 latest stable build.
seems unnaturally hot... is there any metal in between your phone and the charger?

I have a thin rubber case that goes around the back and sides. I took it off the charger this morning and it was at 100 F.

my phone gets warm during the initial charging but once it hits 100% it cools down real fast. I can think of only one other thing in this case.. you might not be aligned correctly.. but i would not think that's the case since you seem to be able to get to 100% with no problem...
I have the Verizon and the monster watts WiQiQi kit. I mainly use the Verizon back cover even though it means I can't put a case on. The WiQiQi is a nice kit but when I use it with my preferred case, one with a stand , The screen distorts and bulges. But I put the WiQiQi in my fathers phone with an otterbox and he has no issues.
