Hi everyone !
Do you guys know where I can buy the Samsung official car stand/dock for the GSM Galaxy Nexus ?
I am in the US and they only sell the Verizon one which doesn't have the 3 pins charging connector.
I'd like the stand to charge the phone while I drive.
Thank you !
Search is your friend. And if you searched you'd know it wont ever ever eva come out because you didnt search.

This is what I am looking for: http://www.clove.co.uk/official-vehicle-dock-samsung-galaxy-nexus-ecs-k1f2begstd
Has anyone seen that in stock somewhere please ?
(preferably sold directly in the US, not through a UK website)
Thanks.
It's not available anywhere on earth yet. Perhaps on Mars. I haven't checked though.
Hey, I just wondering, but none discussed about a dual sim adapter being compatible with galaxy nexus, something like this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dual-SIM-Ad...ccessories&hash=item3a7236bc2c#ht_3253wt_1396
Looks like these guys do....
www.magic-sim.com
I've got products off them before so can vouch for the service

why did you bump a year old thread?
Google landed me on this thread.. So didn't create separate thread for the same query... And hoping that someone would be using the same thing.

Connectivity demo video [UDPATE: new vid, NOVA 3+PS3 controller+HDTV+"how to" guide]
Basically rather large medley showing many of the connection options available for the Galaxy S3, make sure to use the nav links in the video description to get around the vid:
Note: Since the video I also got NOVA 3 on my S3 and playing it via MHL on my HDTV with a PS3 controller over bluetooth (every bit as freaking sweet as it sounds). Anyone want a guide?
[UPDATE] Demo and guide for playing NOVA 3 wirelessly via a PS3 controller, much better experience (especially on an HDTV and with a home theatre system connected!). Until you've made videos where you control the game by viewing it through the viewfinder in your camera please refrain from being too critical about how badly I suck
Ya sure a guide would b much appreciated

Yep, it's the one that is specific to the S3 (11 pin set-up, rather than 5 like the older ones - I have two of those so I'm annoyed about the change too).

Do you know if you can use a 2.4ghz wireless air fly mouse/keyboard combo while the phone is hooked up to HDTV through mhl? If so, what would I need besides the mhl adapter? USB hub?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Just tried an unpowered 4 port USB hub with a 32gb flash drive connected and the phone crashed and rebooted.
Excellent video mate, is the S3 your main phone these days? I'm sure I remember you doing a similar review on the Galaxy Note, that's what I have although I did get an S3 for the missus and it is tempting, but I'm holding out for the Note 2.
By the way, can you point me in the direction of a relatively cheap bluetooth keyboard and mouse that will work with my Note, but a set that doesn't come with a usb dongle since I want to use the micro usb port on the phone to connect it via MHL to my TV. If that makes sense.

Yep, S3 is my daily (still love my Note though). Will get the Note 2 for sure and totally respect holding out for it.
Understand what you're saying about the keyboard thing and MHL, will take a look and find some suitable ones for you.
Wow, now that is impressive. I can't believe how much you can do with the S3, simply amazing. The S3 kicks all other "smart" phones back to the dark ages . Another vote for a numptys guide please, first time smart/droid phone user here. Or I will be if my phone ever turns up

Awesome. $10 sure beats $40 for the official adapter. Just need some compatibility confirmation reviews before pulling the trigger.
Is there anyone out there with a USB DAC who can verify the S3 can actually output digital audio via USB?
This is a long time wish for audiophiles, who will all be getting an S3 if this functionality works.

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.

That was what I was trying to allude to. simple fix with a little sugru though.

Sorry -- if you register a US GS3, you should be able to get a 50% coupon. I'm not sure if it works for other devices or outside of US though.

doesn't, only US.

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.
Mornin y'all , so i gots a question .. My tabs USB port suddenly stopped charging. Ive switched out cables and plugs etc, then came to find out that half of the lil prong things inside the port were either damaged or missing. Obviously i have to change it so my question is
Would i be able to use another Samsung Galaxy charger usb to replace the broken one? I actually have Samsung Galaxy S3, S4, S5 and Galaxy mega that i can pull from but wanted to make sure it would be compatible before takin it apart
Thanks in advance

My guess is you could buy the exact part for your tablet. I know I can for my Note 10.1. Then there's this:

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
