I'd like a Pogo Dock if only to save the micro USB port but not even Google is selling them now... I know there's eBay but the bids for USED ones exceed $100, it's insane, I guess Samsung didn't manufacture enough.... Is there another place to look? Does anyone here want to unload one?
Thanks.

I can get you a brand new official Samsung desktop dock with pogo pins for AUD$60 plus shipping (from Japan).
The dock is suitable for the international GSM version of the Galaxy Nexus.
You can check my credentials on eBay Australia. My ID is tom1803.

So I was looking around and I found an interesting dock that also charges a second battery for only 25$
http://www.wirelessground.com/samsung-galaxy-nexus-charging-cradle.html
I was wondering if anyone has ever purchased from wirelessground or is currently using this dock.
just curious is there a dock that uses 3pin on the side of the phone?
hope works with extended battery
I have yet to find a dock that uses the 3pins
I really want the 3 pin dock for its side. DAMN taking tooooo longgggggggggg
Amazon carries this as well. Listed under: Cellet Cradle Charging Dock Stand Desktop Charger for Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus i515 -Black
Why do essential accessories like this take so long to be released...

I havent seen a specific thread on this yet but here it goes, where are people getting pogo pins at? I dont think using guitar strings, screw etc are a good idea for the charging docks people are making. I know the pitch is 3.0mm ( if you go with a pod style, 3 pogos molded together ). But I dont know the depth the pins have to be pushed in at. None the less, where have people been getting their pins at?
wtf are pogo pins?
Want to enlighten me on what they are?
Look on the edge of your phone. You see those gold contacts? That is used for charging and I think also used for audio too. The pogo pins are a spring loaded contact that depresses when the phone is set on the contacts. Google pogo pins, hell look in our accessories section here to see a few examples.

Samsung released the dock just recently. Available on the official Samsung site for 89 USD.

It appears to have been removed but here is a news article on it:
3-Pin Dock (Discontinued??)
I ordered these. It took a month to get here. I just got them yesterday & I haven't had time to rig them up yet - I got an extended battery, so now I have to redo my cradle before I hook up the pins.

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.

I think the topic creator was talking about this dock here that is available with the pogo pins
http://www.expansys.com/samsung-google-galaxy-nexus-desk-stand-226695/
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!!!

So, where the heck can I buy a spare charger and dock cable for my Note 10.1? Best Buy doesn't sell them, I didn't see anything on Amazon, I'm just confused. Help!

You mean this?
i ordered a spare one today.

I got this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004DBD4TG/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00 and it works fine yet i need to try it with my reg. usb power adapter...
Any charger compatible with previous Galaxy Tab devices will work.
Thanks all! Ordered one. Still silly that they use proprietary chargers and pinouts...

If you ever feel the need to be more then two feet away from the charger while using your tablet this is a good option.
This is what I use....

Nice find, but I hate having to wait for items to be shipped from Hong Kong, why not just get a USB extended cable like any of these.
TS
Normally sure, but that item arrived from HK in 5 days and I purchased a OTG cable as well from the seller.
Plus its fairly high quality 22 gauge wire in one continuous cable.
Its win....
Is there any place that still sells the official car dock for the GSM Galaxy Nexus? Also are there any alternatives that use the Pogo pins? Even better one that uses the Pogo Pins and supports a case like the Diztronic TPU case?
Let me clarify, anyone still selling the official GSM Galaxy Nexus Car Dock that isn't ~$75? Because at that price I will just hold the thing in my hand the whole time. I seen the Verizon versions going for like $10 on eBay.

I bought a car dock when they were new but never use it because the audio is overdriven. It would work with attenuation in the line I think.
What I wish I had bought is the horizontal pogo pin desk dock. That would be so sweet at work.

I'll sell mine for $35. It's been modified for the Verizon phone, but there's no reason it shouldn't work for gsm as well..
I've also got the desktop dock with HDMI out that I'll sell for $15.

I'm looking for the 3rd dock, not one of these two. . .
Horizontal, pogo pin charging, no HDMI output.
It looks like OP has an option, though. Thanks1
