I deeply hope that all these companies designing flip- or hard covers do not forget to give enough spare space for the magnetic dock .....
I got two hardcovers - one for my ZU, one for my Z1 - where the openings for the magnetic charging contacts was even too small for the magnetic cable connector itself .................

Don't understand you clearly, could you show few photos for this problem? for I never get bad experience from the flip cover so far, and as know the magnet buckle will effect the mobile phone's performance somewhat...

Will try to post some photos...............
I charged my ZU and my Z1 only ONE TIME by USB-cable before use and since first installation ONLY via magnetic cable (ZU: dock, Z1: modified magnetic plug to fit the too small opening in the hard-case (NOT flip-cover, my Nillkin is still on the mail and did not yet arrive, so I will see if they made it right).
The charging process with the magnetic cable is fast, easy to connect and disconnect, NO need to open the waterproof flip (which will with the time wear out and by this prevent water-proofness), and reliable AND esp. with the Z1 allows screen rotation when charged with the magnetic cable.
My main reasons to buy ZU and Z1 were: 1.) magnetic dock/charging cable, 2.)water-proofness

I am ordering the rock cover and since it will come after some time because of long shipping time I want to be sure its worth the money and wait

[Q] Desktop dock compatible with Case-mate tough case?

Does anyone know of a desktop dock that will work with an S2 fitted with a Case-mate tough case?
I really liked the Zenis dock, however after searching on here, I see that although this dock is suitable for use with a protective case, the tough case is just too thick.
Does a dock that will allow for the extra thichness of the tough case actually exist?
Many thanks for your help.
none.
case-mate tough / otterbox commuter both have bottom protector which won't fit in dock like zenis.
Darnit.
I'll just have to wait until I get my tough case and see how easy it is to take the outer piece on and off at night I guess (thats presuming it would fit a dock without the hard plastic outer piece).
Thanks for your help.
Just tested this samsumg battery cradle dock with my thin mercury case

Will having the S2 attached to the dock all the time when being at home affect battery life?
I realise this thread is awfully old but did anyone come up with a solution to this?
I intend to use my S2 as a spare/backup phone and rather then just shove it in a drawer it would make sense if I could just drop it into a dock and use it for other things. I don't want to take it out of the Casemate tough, or fit a different case as I've come to rely on it's sturdyness and the confidence it gives me when the phone is in my pocket.
So ideally a dock with a width (for the device) of about 6.6cm and a centrally mounted microusb charging prong.
Obviously none of the standard i9100 docks will work but I wonder if docks for any other phones meet the requirements?
Thoughts?
I think that there is one more really important thing - how deep USB plug must go through case, for sweet armor it's about 3mm, so check that out as well. Also if case got socket cover like eg. Otterbox, u must keep space for it as well.

That's not a problem so much as the Case Mate has a 'large hole' for the charging insert, so as long as the dock doesn't have a ridiculous large/wide mount point for the USB connector it should work.
So does anyone know of a phone that has a standard width of about 6.6-6.9cm and has a central point on the bottom for it's microusb charging connector?
Thanks

[Q][REVIEW] Leather wallet case + question about magnets

REVIEW IS HERE
I've found this on ebay.
It's pretty and cheap and i'm probably going to buy it (and if, i'll post here a depth review), but
QUESTION:
Can the magnetic closure ruin the phone? i mean by interferences or so
Thanks.

Thanks! I've also found some thread related to other phones and the conclusion is the same.
I'll let you know.
I was wondering the exact same thing just the other day. The blackberry pouches have a magnet to cater to its auto shut off feature. But seeing that the G-nex does not have this feature, would the magnet cause any internal damage?

I just received the item and the magnets seems to be strong enough to keep the cover closed but not to interfere with the phone. Plus the screen doesn't seems to be attracted by the magnets.
I'll post a review this evening.
It would.be.cool.if we could make this like the iPad and power on when opened.
Looking forward to your review.
i like the concept of these, but, not sure if i would like having to open something every time i would need to use my phone. not to mention i don't think i would like trying to talk on it and the flap covering half my face or credit cards falling out. and then i would have to pop it out every time i get in the car to put it in my dock.
cool idea though. i would consider it if it just had a cash-stash and cc slots on the back side without the flap
CASE REVIEW (a sort of)
PROs
- The phone fits perfectly in the case.
- The magnets don't seem to interfere with anything.
- The front cover bends without any problem and doesn't slap my face while calling.
- The screen is very well protected
CONs
- The plastic inner case doesn't have proper top and bottom sides leaving the phone quite unprotected there as you can see from the photos.
- The credit card pocket sewing can mark the screen, but it's nothing permanet.
Let me know if you have more questions.

A solution is to use the proximity sensor but I think that if it was feasible then someone would have already done it.

[UPDATED] A slightly different slim metal bumper case, working magnetic cradle port.

Hi guys, I have just bought a slim metal bumper for my Z1. Here is the link if you want it too ==> http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Luxury-De...lePhonesCasesPouches&var=&hash=item2c76d1781e
----------------------------------------​It is different from both this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2609711&page=2 and this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2527493 , since the first one is a LOVE ME! model (personally don't like it, sorry) and the second one I don't know, it looks pretty cool but the owner said that the magnetic charger needs to be cut in order to make the phone charge properly.
----------------------------------------​
Actually mine is better, with this one you have still at least 1mm of gap between a flat surface and the front/back of your phone, there are some little silicon felt to grip the phone inside the bumper and protect it from self-scratch.
Last for the best : all ports are made for our phones functions BUT! My magnetic cable is working without any modifications or cuts, I just have to plug and there it goes!
I don't know if my cable is different from the Sony one or if it is a stock Sony one actually (it was branded Sony DK31 magnetic cable so who knows).
I can recommand it without reserve, the seller is trustworthy and shipped it really fast, 5 days from UK to France. The bumper itself is very light but still feels sturdy. Vastly positive impression.
Pictures are here !

I think you guys might like it too. Please let people know if you buy it and your experience with it.
This case looks good but will make volume button harder to press especially camera button.
Hav exactly this one...bought on aliexpress...its pretty good and all, sturdy and with rubber on the internal side to protect the phone from shocks, but i hav to say, makes the phone a little bit too big for my taste, when i take it out the case i remember how beautiful this phone is...and its too big to fit in my magnetic dock
I have the same metal case in black:

This is true for the volume button, when you want to find them on the go it is harder to press, but the camera button is not this hard to press, I was surprised.

You're right! Our phones are so beautiful when naked. But I don't trust the skinomi protection, it cannot withstand falls I think so it might be the "best compromise" for us.

Nillkin Sparkle Leather Case

The Oppo Find 7a just reached our shores here (Philippines)
Found a Nillkin Sparkle Leather Flip Case today... (Couldn't believe how many 'Oppo what?' reactions I got from asking around Greenhills.)

Anyway, the thing is pretty nice. The window is quite functional at times, but it's not a clear window, it's a punched out window, so it's not protected in that area.
The 'prevent misoperation' does often trigger though, not a biggie. (since I'd rather still have the double tap)
Some more pics
There were two other colors, a grey and light brown one.
So, by design, it does look like it's a design flaw coz the power button placement... but somehow, the phone always wakes up when the flap is opened. So it's not really a problem.
The stock OPPO cover like that does the same thing. I don't know if it does it on Gummy rom or not since I removed it, I think there's an option to enable/disable that feature in the setting of Gummy somewhere.

Well, I'd disable the 'prevent misoperation' option, since I figured the flip cover actually will prevent touching of the screen in the pocket somewhat...
The Cut out and the Camera Widget goes hand in hand, it seems. I realized I could take pictures still with the widget even with the front flap closed. I can also see facebook updates with the 4x2 widget too, and somewhat w/ Flipboard.
My Nillkin Rain leather case. No window.
@tantrums: Does the front flap close shut? I ask because the Sparkle Nillkin (and the original Oppo Easy cover) remains partially open after usage.

how much?
IIRC, about Php 850-900 ($18-20 ish)
i bought Nillkin Rain but the front flap not closing shut so the phone opens again. Is there any settings to prevent this?

What lock screen is being used in this video? I have a OnePlus One and I bought the same case for it. I can't figure out how to get notifications or anything else within the window on the cover. It would be great to have my notifications show up in that area.

Modified Bamboo Wood Charge Station

As a former Moto 360 user, I'm pretty happy with the Huawei watch but the charging experience is horrible. The Qi charger of the Moto 360 works as the dock and it makes charging effortless.
Enough with the whining, let's fix it. This dock that I bought for around $8 is designed for the Apple Watch and the iPhone 6 Plus. No big deal. The wood is soft and easy to work with.

First, for the watch:
-Make the hole bigger for the Huawei magnetic charger.
-The charger has to sit tightly inside the hole, doesn't come out with the watch but still easy to remove. I don't want to buy another charger.
Before:
After 10 minutes with the rotary tool:
It's much easy to dock the watch now. I found out that once I drop the watch on the charger, just press the screen by 9 o'clock. It will make the pogo pins align with the contacts on the bottom of the watch. Tried it a few time and it worked every time. :good:
Next, I want to make the USB-C connector permanently attach to the bottom of the dock so I can dock my Nexus 6P. It looks like this from the bottom of the dock:
To be continue...
Well done!
Kudos
I saw that dock on eBay and wanted to do the same thing. Thanks for being a guinea pig. (Looks like you need more practice with the rotary tool. Scratched it a bit.) Anyway, good luck with the USB plug.
Great really great where can I get it

There are 3D printed stands on eBay and Amazon

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odk...h+stand.TRS2&_nkw=huawei+watch+stand&_sacat=0
3D printed or not. It's not worth it to pay $25 for a piece of plastic.
I've got one of these stands as well, and I menage to get the Huawei charger in the hole as you did, however I have some difficulty with fixing the cable to charge the iphone to the stand. How did you do it?

Hows the angle of the charger cable when the phone is sitting on the dock?
I've been considering getting one of these combo docks, but have concerns about the angle and the cable being pushed against the side of the dock.
