i'm wondering, through any guesses, would this dock work with the S3?
i would love to have this dock to connect an HDMI cable, or also any of the USB plugs.

Well, the on the Samsung germany site, they have what LOOKS like the same dock and they say it works for both. the part number is slightly different (that could just be an EU/US thing though).
I would expect some shimming to be needed for the S3 to fit... but (as another member pointed out) it might lock the phone in portrait mode....
Really interested in this as well. If everything else works, I can live with the portrait mode. Hopefully someone will post a hands-on soon.
i already have the Galaxy S3 dock. and the locking into portrait mode does not bother me.
the main reason i picked it up in the first place is so i can audio out and charge, instead of plugging in USB and AUX cable.
i also tried to see if a 5-pin MHL adapter would work from the dock end, but it didn't.
here's hoping that this will work on the S3.
I am hoping for this dock to work on S3 too. I am holding onto my 50% off coupon code for this dock.

Yeah, it sounds like you could have walked up to any pretzel stand in the mall and asked this question and you'd probably get the same answer. Most likely "Tina" is actually Ramajesh.
I don't see why it wouldn't be compatible. Unless Samsung intentionally made it not compatible. This link shows that the 11-pin MHL cable is compatible with both (http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EPL-3FHUBEGSTA-compatible), so that means the it's the same exact port in both phones. The only way I figure it won't work is if Samsung purposely tries to detect that it's an S3, and blocks it.
I am sure it works.
the only reason it would not work is not something related to the MHL thing but the shape of the stand , and I don't know the difference between the S3 and the Note 2 so I am not sure about that.
and as for the girl from the costumer service , I would consider her another retarded person from the way she was responding.
we only need a member who has an access to one of these docks to try and give us a review
Guys, is this product available in Korea ? coz im going nxt week also any idea how much note 2 in korea ?
i hv s3 but going to buy note 2 nxt week and hopefull use both devices on this dock.
thanks
Have these things even been produced yet? It was just announced and already on back order, so it sounds more like "coming soon". Hopefully someone can at least get a preview model soon (ie. before those 50% off coupons expire!)

If they're out anywhere, I would think Korea would be the place! Keep an eye out and let us know. Also, have a safe trip!
fitting into the dock should not be an issue. since the Note II is 9.4mm thick, and the S3 is 8.6mm thick. most likely even with an extended battery (like what i have) on the S3 will fit in this dock.
agreed though, if anything would stop compatibility, it would be the MHL adapter built into this dock. yet again may be another change Samsung did to make people buy separate accessories. perhaps a differently aligned 11-pin adapter? that would suck.
I guess we'll just have to see, but one thing that may help as far as physically fitting, is that it looks like the Note II has a flatter bottom, whereas the GS3's bottom is curved out more, so the microUSB port should extend down -- it just may not sit as stable without putting little props to stabilize it.

doesn't, only US.
tried with my canadian gs3.
however, it would also work with any old samsung phones you have, i'm talking flip phone old. i think that's US speicifc as well.

this user found a review on the dock..i used chrome to translate the page and the reviewer said it's a proprietary dock for note 2. gs 3 didn't work in it at all EXCEPT for charge...not even USB sync.
not sure if that makes sense......but that's what it says in the review after translate.
i'm no expert but assuming if the note 2 and gs3 have the same pin structure how could the dock not work on gs3?

Yeah, doesn't really make much sense -- it's like they'd have to go out of their way to make it not work. And why?... the Note II is apparently selling well, but there are what ~ 30 million GS3s on the market now?

You are correct, the review is norwegian and i'm swedish but we understand each other's languages and it only works for charging. I read on the swedish samsung facebook page where someone asked about the dock and they answered that it will work with the S3 after a firmware update. It seems to not be as expensive as I expected in sweden, around 45 euro, it is supposed to be available nov 20.

I was wondering the same thing, made a post about it earlier today. I decided to just go ahead and order one. I watched a video after on it and the Note won't plug in with a case on, so it'll probably be the same for the Nexus. I'll post back when it comes in.
Just read on Droid Life that another place is shipping it here

I need an MHL adapter ASAP. Does anyone have any experience with this MHL adapter?
Thanks!
EDIT:
What about this one! http://www.amazon.com/Skiva-Adapter...F8&qid=1341247731&sr=8-5&keywords=mhl+adapter
I have that one. It's worked with both a LG G2X and a Samsung Galaxy Note. I think most devices need to be hooked up in sequence for it to work properly (charger first then HDMI, or vice versa).
Edit: Oops, I meant Samsung Galaxy Skyrocket, not LG G2X (that one had its own HDMI out). Too many devices last year...
The reviews from people owning the Galaxy Nexus state that it has awful performance.

I just noticed the extra reviews. I need one for vacation, and this was one of the top ones on Amazon. If this doesn't work, I can always return it. That's not a problem. I just really need one.
Do you have any recommendations for MHL adapters on Amazon?
What about the other one in my OP?
I have the Skiva one. Works well. I PM'd you about it.
If you need one "ASAP" why not just run down to the TMobile store and pick one up.
I just bought one off of monoprice, 9 dollars. I'm sure by reviews it will work fine and monoprice has never failed me.

That's too expensive when I toss in shipping. I would definitely have checked them out if I would have thought about this sooner. Sadly, I just thought about it last night, but I was busy with work.
I just realized one thing I'll miss about my Transformer is having a physically connected keyboard that I can use while travelling by plane. From what I've read Bluetooth keyboards are a no-no for in flight usage. Has anyone used a USB connected mini-keyboard using the Samsung USB adapter? I also know Samsung will be coming out (from what I've read here) with a keyboard dock but it's not available yet. I thought I also read somewhere that the Tab 10.1 dock will work with the Note 10.1.
Has anyone had any luck or a good setup for using an in-flight keyboard setup for the Note 10.1?

Ok, I know everyone will probably gag on this but...
As I was reading this thread, I went upstairs and obsconded (kids dont use it, WTH) the WII Usb KB and connected it. Works fantastic!
If you have one laying around... it may solve your want.
I picked up the official Samsung keyboard dock last week, it works nicely for that purpose!
http://www.samsung.com/au/consumer/...es/EKD-K14AWEGSTD?subsubtype=other-multimedia
Unfortunately, it's expensive and not available in most stores yet. Picked it up from the Samsung store in Sydney CBD.
Just so you know, Australia and USA both use the US keyboard layout (as opposed to the UK, which uses the UK layout), so maybe that could help you guys in the states source one of these? You won't have a messed up layout like you would ordering from the UK. Then again, I don't know any Australian place offering these for shipping internationally so that could be moot.

Very frustrating to not have these available for purchase in the US.
Is it possible to close it? Like the transformer or a regular laptop? Dont feel like not being able to close it..
An extra battery would be nice though incase of very long flights or train/car rides..
It doesn't hinge so you can't "fold" it closed like a regular laptop. Instead you just pull it out of the dock.
I know it has been discussed but I wanted to share my work. Not beautiful but it works. This is the dock for the Tab 10.1 modified for use with my Note 10.1

Thank you very much i appreciate your suggestion. I guess my question was asked to avoid buying the part and since I have numerous Galaxy products (already apart or used for parts) I was hoping to save $$ but overall prolly should just get the part lol. Thanks so much imma look into it now
