Hey guys all I could find for hdmi adaptors were 50$ here in canada. Did some reading bought this galaxy tab dock for 15 $. It has a mini hdmi out which is great, cable was 15$ for 6ft. Everything works great. I cut the side edges out and put some felt tabs on the adaptor. Put a piece of hockey tape on it after. Tablet doesnt move. No fear of too much pressure on the connector. Works great as desktop stand and for mirroring on tv. Bought it on amazon. I know its a little rough but it was just to see if it worked ill clean up the edges later

$12.95 w/free shipping here in the states on Ebay for the HDMI Multimedia Galaxy Tab 7.0 Desktop Charger Music Dock.
I may get one and use a table saw to cut the ends off of the unit like you did.

Anyone use a good Universal Car Dock that will work with the GNex?
Amazon seems to have a decent selection. I just ordered an Exomount. The have a demo video on their site and it looks pretty good.

I ordered a Empire universal mount. Don't buy it. It's advertised with GNex compatibility, the side arms push down the volume keys, even worse, It broke what I was trying to extend the arm. It was only $8, I guess I got what I paid for.

Sure. Just got it. Gonna try it out tonight.

The mount is surprisingly small. The base has some type of sticky element that allows it to attach to multiple surfaces. I'll find out tonight how well it holds up on a car ride.

Hello Jerk82,
How do you like the car mount?
Thanks
I'm wondering if I would be able to mod this with my official GSM Car Dock. My case on the phone (a small/slim TPU case. It's really popular here, I just can't remember the name) has cutouts for the pogo pins, but my phone obviously won't fit into the car dock with the case on.
Something like this would be perfect if I could "enable" the pogo pins.

I dig it. Its been on my dash since I bought it and its fallen off twice, which I think is due to the heat from being in direct sun light for months.

Any one know if there's a cheaper one available and confirmed working?
There are cheapo ones that say "galaxy s3, s3, htc evo, etc" compatible, but i dont think a lot of sellers realize its a different pin connection.
has anyone been able to purchase one that works?
the genuine samsung one is too expensive.

Same!
You can use a cheapo adapter with Samsung's adapter kit.
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Samsung-OEM-...Accessories&hash=item2572f37fc3#ht_1660wt_889
Free shipping to the US. $26 shipping to Canada (which is why I haven't purchased it yet)
Yeah I think I may just use the MHL adapter from the GS2 and the 5-pin to 11-pin adapter tip both from samsung. At least they're both OEM and I don't really feel like waiting.
MHL: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006FYXL2O/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&smid=A2AXKMC4UVT4QQ
Adapter Tip: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0083FYL0O/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&smid=A1FBR7E8HT21EQ
Total is only $22.65. Just over half the price of the GS3 adapter.
The adapter tip you guys are referring to is usb to micro hdmi right? So you need the adapter tip plus micro hdmi to hdmi cable. The latter can be picked up for 4 bucks from ebay.

No, the MHL adapter is a microUSB to regular HDMI adapter. However the old MHL adapters for the Galaxy Nexus and Galaxy S2 use a 5-pin microUSB input and you need an 11-pin microUSB input so that's what the adapter tip does.
There is a 3rd party one here for preorder

yup i agree, and $15 less than the original from Samsung. I am sure it works the same way.
Was wondering if anyone around these parts has given the $99 dock a shot. I was thinking that with hdmi and a couple usb ports it was worth every bit of what they are asking.
Responsiveness?
Quality?
Ease of use?
Mouse and keyboard connected helpful or a henderance, work at all?
Large sshd work with it?
Scaling on different resolution displays?
The s3 doc works nicely

Yeah thats great but they are not even close to similar! The only thing they have in common is that they are both called docks.

Well not sure what you're definition of a dock is but. The s3 doc meets my definition very well

Not sure what your definition of Galaxy Note 2 is but your GS3 dock doesnt have anything to do with the Galaxy Note 2 dock but, thanks for sharing
The topic is docks not specifically the N2 dock. THE s3 doc works well for charging and the system recognizes that it was inserted into the doc. It has audio our too so I would say it is a N2 doc too.

Thanks for the heads up on using the S3 dock for the N2. I'm currently using the S2 dock with my E4GT, and will be much happier to pay $30 for the S3 dock, rather than $100 for the N2 dock. Personally, I doubt that I would use the HDMI or USB ports on the N2 dock anyway.
Exactly. Another benefit is that rhere is a special home screen that pops up when you put the phone in the cradle on the note 2 that allows you to launch your choice of apps that to run when docked

mostly won't work, probably designed for note1, not compatible with note2.
you need one with 11 pins.
just search Samsung HDMI adaptor, if it said for galaxy s3, then it will works!
galaxy s3 also is 11 pins.
So this would work then?

yes, it should works if you buy BOTH of them.
but I would suggest buying Samsung brand,
I have a Samsung brand and it works!
maybe better video quality too.
or you can get the allshare hub, stream it to HDTV wireless!

I searched on here already, but couldn't find anything about this.
I'm looking for a dock I could use with a silicone or tpu case (not a folio). I have a cheap 'universal' eBay one for my S3, but obviously it's a bit more complicated with the Note's proprietary charger.
Does anyone know of anything? I'd be fine with a stand that holds it up high enough off a table top to plug a normal charger in as well.
I found these two on Amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003QCOKGO/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
I think this might be a better solution than a regular dock.
Any other suggestions would be welcomed!

Here are a few that may work for you, remember you can rotate the note 10.1 180 degrees and have the plug at the top and the screen will rotate for viewing.
