I just thought I would pass this on to everyone.
I have found a Samsung Desktop cradle that Does work with the 10.1 note 2014 edition.
The tablet recognizes that it is docked. Does not work with a gel skin on the tablet unless you modify the tab skin, which is what I did.
All I needed to do was to cut the charger port opening in the skin a little larger then then stock. Now I can charge the tab with my skin on it.
http://www.staples.com/Samsung-Cradle-For-Tablet-PC-White/product_IM1RZ3099
NewEgg sells the dock to but they did not have a picture of it so I linked staples since they show a picture
Reputable sites are describing this as 5 pin. I see amazon says 11...
Staples, themselves, say 5.
Do you know which it really is?
I cant say for sure, I can tell if the port has 5 or 11 pins but Since Amazon is the only place saying its 11 pin, Im betting its a 5 pin. You can always call Samsung and ask cust service or tech support.
If its the Ee-d100 its recommended by Samsung to work with the 2014.

I think I am getting the 32GB wifi SGT 10.1 for christmas from the wife...since it's really the only thing i asked for.
i've been reading up on stuff to be ready to root and to know what accessories to buy, etc.
i've read over lots of threads today and some are outdated or just scattered with links here and there of accessories.
i would like some help to come up with the best accessories that i will buy for myself on christmas day or ones i might want down the line.
SO PLEASE HELP (with links to actual products...amazon preferred):
Case/cover/stand
Charging/Multimedia Dock
Adapters
Extra Cables
Keyboard Dock or Bluetooth Keyboard
Anything else i should look for...
i hand out THANKS to anyone who helps make this a complete and up to date list with all the latest and greatest for the SGT 10.1
You will probably get a lot of different opinions on this one. Most will likely be correct since there is no absolute right answer. I am a new user as well so I can share with you what I have or plan to get.
My Tab came with the Samsung pouch case which is fine but a bit inconvenient. Where do you put it when you pull the Tab out for use. I picked up one of the clip-style cases on eBay. It is very lightweight and functional.
I am going to gamble that Gorilla Glass is as tough as they say and not get a screen cover. I have, however applied a coat of Rain-X to help minimize the accumulation of fingerprints.
My device also came with the Samsung keyboard dock. This is a very nice device but not something you will probably take on the road. If you want a traveling keyboard, you might want to look into one of the integrated keyboard cases. Just remember, one of the great aspects to tablets is their light weight. Adding the mobile keyboard will double the weight.
I am still shopping for a do-it-all adapter cable. One day all tablets will come with USB, HDMI and card readers built in. I expect that I will need or want all of those connection options but right now, it does not appear that there is a plug-adaptor that offers all of those functions. The minimalist way to go is to get a USB cable or dongle which will allow you to plug in a variety of things. There is an interesting looking hub adapter on eBay that includes and SD reader and three USB ports. I have not yet heard reports from any actual users but for less $14 it might be worth giving it a try.
HDMI connectors remain elusive. The only ones that I have found so far require a 110V power connection in order to work. I am sure something will show up down the road.
One annoying thing about the Tab is the high amperage requirement for charging. Most car chargers put out far less than the 2A minimum that this device needs. USB ports on most computers are also underpowered for the Tab. If you travel, you will need a car charger. Just make sure that it will push enough current to charge your Tab.
If you are like me, the most important stuff that you will add to your new Tab will be Apps. There are many thousands of apps out there. Most seem to be games or less-than-useful apps that are not worth your time. There are, however a number of really useful apps out there that you will want to check out. Search this forum and others for opinions on that subject.
Hopefully you will find my observations helpful.

Hmm...there aren't a lot of them
Today I just bought the Samsung Galaxytab 10.1 USB adapter at Bestbuy for $19.99. At first I thought it was only for connecting a USB thumb drive but I found later it can be used for much more. In fact I tried using a Logitech Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Unifying adapter. It works flawless, in fact the response of the keyboard was spot on, if the unifying wireless adapter works I'm sure the mouse would too. The USB thumb drive works like a charm as well. I also bought the Dock for the Tab, Bestbuy doesn't sell the one with the HDMI output but does sell this one with the 3.5mm Lineout for audio and charging adapter at the back. The dock is connected to the 30pin adapter and can be charged and also have the USB dongle attached at the back for convenience. Bestbuy also has the Targus leather case stand for it, it's fairly thick material with a nice leather like microfiber interior to help in protecting the tab from scratches, it also doubles as a nice stand with three positions. All three products for just under 100 bucks. By the way the Dock was 34.99 and the case I believe was 39.99.
thanks for the replies. still looking for more help/links.
very good info though
i've also seen 2 different "OEM" USB connectors
EPL-1PL0BEGSTA & EPL-1PL0BEGXAR, what's the diff?
which is newer/better?

One drawback... you cannot charge the Tab when using the adapters.
Just got 'DigitalsOnDemand 15-Item Accessory Bundle for New Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wi-Fi / 3G 4G LTE 16GB 32GB'
Includes: DigitalsOnDemand Black TPU Skin Case, Crystal Clear Case, Premium DigitalsOnDemand Leather Case with Kick Stand, Screen Protector, Adjustable Reading Book Light, Earphones with mic, Earphone Splitter, AUX Cable, Wall Charger Adapter, Car Charger Adapter, USB Sync Cable, Retractable USB Data Cable, Fishbone, DigitalsOnDemand Drawstring Travel Pouch, Black Stylus Pen
Cables, earphones and adapters work fine. I honestly bought the bundle just for the extra cables and adapters, so was pleasantly surprised that the cases look all fine. Loved the leather case (not used the other two till now). The stylus is nothing great, but is a nice extra in the package. Have not tried the screen protector as I feel there is no need for it. All in all an excellent buy for just below $60.
The USB adapter came free with my tab. So check before you by one.
I forgot to mention that I also ordered 'New Trent iGeek IMP99D 9900mAh External Battery Pack Dual USB ports' I got it on cyber Monday for $40.95 now it's $61.95 (still down from list price of $ 129.95). The battery is compatible with Tablet PCs with 5V/2A input (Ipad 2, Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, HTC flyer). This will take care of battery issues in my mobile devices. The product name includes the amazon link and here is their own website http://www.newtrent.com
It's still with a friend of mine in US, so will get it only next month. Will give a full review once I receive it in India. However I am already happy with recommending them, as the customer service is out of this world. There were some problems with the order by credit card. They immediately contacted me. The owner self spoke with me and immediately solved all issues.
thanks a bunch. i will check to see what all is included before i buy anything extra...also i have thought of buying one of those battery packs before, but never pulled the trigger due to price and not the greatest reviews on some of them....some say they work great at first, then dont hold a charge or explode or whatever.
I had similar concerns, as I read some very negative reviews on some external battery packs. I bought this model, because I read very good reviews about this company and got it for an very enticing US$ 40.95. The website also specially mentioned that it is compatible with Tablet PCs (iPad 2, SamSung Tab 10.1, and HTC flyer) and it weighs only 250g. The 11000 mAh would have been 285g.
It includes
IMP99D external battery pack (9900mAh)
USB cable for charging Cell phone device
One USB cable for charging Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1
MiniUSB adapter for Blackberry
MicroUSB adapter for Blackberry and HTC Androd, Moto Droid
AC Wall Outlet plug with voltage range 100V-240V suitable for worldwide travelers
English user manual
here is a short review I found for the battery pack I purchased

Here is another video from the predecessor model which helped me to make my mind up:

As already told experienced also excellent customer service.
​
i've bought only 3 things so far.
the case/stand
the USB & SD Card adapters
which dock is the best dock (link on amazon please) and will it work with the case i have, or will i have to pop it out every time i need to charge it?

??? seems fine. i know it'll be faster than using wifi explorer app or dropbox, so it's good enough for me.
i just offloaded some pics from an sd card. havent used em much yet.
just tested the usb one to make sure it recognized the drive, i didnt copy anything over yet.
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.

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.

Audio is via bluetooth , Pogo pins are just for charging.
for pogo pins, pls contact [email protected] Top-link has specialized on this line for more than 10 years and your trust will be our responsibility.
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.

Hello all. A friend of mine developed this new car dock for the Note 3, Galaxy S3, and Galaxy S4. I was lucky enough to get an advanced copy for my GS3 and found it to be the best dock I have ever used. I purchased one for my Note 3 and I did an unboxing. Please give it a look. Thanks

Nice. I want a wireless option. That doesn't look bad at all. Thanks for the heads up man

Sorry but the thread title is misleading. This isnt wireless charging, Looks like there are two pins on the docks that link to the case. As the case seems to use the wireless charging points on the phone it would mean I couldnt use the QI receiver Ive added. There's no mention of wireless changing on the actual site .
Also dont like the window mount as its way too short. I woudlnt be able to reach the phone or it would have to be stuck at the top of the windscreen. Never found a vent mount that doesnt sag yet either.
Think Ill stick to the Brodit mount, an adapter plate and a generic QI charger from amazon.

Its not necessarily misleading as it leads to a website which explains how the product works

If you want a real wireless charging car mount that is qi, then these would be your best bets: http://smile.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb...as=aps&field-keywords=wireless charging mount
seems to have a lot of good reviews for most of them.
sure.. there are plenty of new wireless charging docks on kickstarter... if you want to wait however long it takes for the kickstarter to end + the time it takes to ship it as opposed to getting it by next week.........
Im currently looking for a charging combo where i can put my phone (oneplus 6) and the watch in/on at the same time.

I've seen the samsung galaxy charger duo which charges both the phone and the watch, and there are also a couple of alternatives on amazon if you search for duo wireless chargers
One of the main reasons I pre-ordered my Galaxy Watch here in the UK was that it not only came with the standard single wireless charger that everyone gets, but it also came with a free Duo wireless charger! The Duo is OK, though I'm a bit surprised it used micro USB rather than USB C for power and that the section to put your watch on isn't magnetic like the single standard wireless charger is (I guess it's not so critical because its horizontal rather than vertical).
Both charging areas of the Duo have "fast charging" written on them, though is the Galaxy Watch even capable of that? I think the retail price of the Duo (89 pounds in the UK) is scandalously high - it's probably worth about a third of that. Single Qi chargers can be found for 10 pounds or less, so to charge 9 times that for a Duo is ridiculous.
Im guessing your right, but im looking for an alternative that wont charge your phone wireless too (because the op6 hasnt got wireless charging though)
Same here, I have a Nexus5x (and no plan to buy a Samsung phone any time soon).
I might end up 3d printing a stand with usb-c for my phone. I just need to find some good Galaxy Watch charger for that.

That actually seems like a pretty good idea. If you do try and do this, you could share the model you used for the charger. Thanks in advance!

I honestly wouldn't expect an Apple charger to be compatible with anything but Apple.
I was in a Samsung Store and they have the Galaxy Watches on Display on the Chargers that look Great.
I would like to know How and Where and How Much.
How can I find the Samsung Galaxy Watch Charging Display Stand that I can Purchase?
Where is it Available to be able to Purchase?
How Much is the Official Samsung Galaxy Watch Charging Display Stand?
If Anyone Know then Please let Me know.
