I just ordered the tab and I am wondering if I can use a folio case with the USB/SD adapter working together? I know I would have an issue if this were my Asus Transformer.
Thanks in advance.
USB adapter
On amazon ASIN : B006MAWKRI seems to be the most popular 4 in 1 adapter out there that is not one of those piece of crap OTG ones I see for 3.99.... although whatever floats your boat.

You can, if the folio case is like the Samsung original, if I understand your question right. Then it is a matter of holding it upside-down (auto rotate will compensate).
If the folio case is not a Samsung original, I would not know. Depends on the case.

My Zenis Desktop Dock just arrived.
For those that are wondering, it will take a "rubber" case – (this case is just a generic no name brand)
I dont have a "hard" case to try.

I believe you can use the samsung dock sidways, haven't seen any other ones that can be placed on their side.

it 'feels' & 'looks' like a quality product
if you can find who retails these they look pretty good, the link is to manufacturer minimum order 200 lol http://www.china-direct-buy.com/v/4...le_for_Samsung_Galaxy_S_II_i9100_Charger.html
I am using this. Very satisfied for now. Charges the phone with the original SGS2 case on. That was my main reason for buying it. I have not tried to sync with PC using the dock as I use Kies Air mostly. Build quality seems good.
May be other dock users can confirm something, should the phone go in to Dock Mode as soon as it is placed in the dock? i.e. show the desktop clock etc. That does not seem to happen with this dock. Although I have not really experimented with any settings. Actually I'd rather have it just like now so that the phone screen is off when it is charging in the dock.
Just a heads up..
Zenis dock dosnt work with the Case-Mate Tough case.

Thats a given, it makes the phone super thick. At least the neohybrid and barely there can still fit.
anyone know if the case mate pop will fit in the Zenis dock?
or is it still as thick as the case mate tough..
cheers.
I've the same question. Maybe someone tried case mate pop with this dock?
Hi.
Got Zenis dock the other day.
Transferring files takes ages through the dock. Is yours working fine?
Or is mine broken?
Anyone please?
Is your Zenis case working like it should?
With mine data transfer is very slow.

does anyone know if it works with the otter box commuter? It probably doesnt..

Hi guys I've got them both and pop case mate do not fit in Zenis dock, fits only rubber bumber or barely there case mate, thank me if I helped you.
Ok so I bought a Qi wireless charging kit that included among other things a new back to accomodate the wireless charging of my phone. The only problem is that now my deender case does not fit my phone anymore. Anyone know where a person can get a case to fit the phone with the slightly larger back and preferably a case with a belt clip.
Thanks,
Alt
Sorry i cant help you with that, but mind me asking where you bought that kit? a link would be appreciated:good:
that's weird. I tried the defender case w/ my kit and it works just fine. fits without a problem and the pad still connects with the transmitter. did you somehow buy a shoddy bootlegged case?

Not sure if this is the right forum to post this but I've been trying to find out if I have a case, will Qi charger still work? I bought a Spigen Slim Armor case and would like to buy a Qi charger as well.

Should be fine. I have a case on my Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 and it works on the wireless charger just fine.
I want to mount a wireless charger inside my bedside table so I don't have to see it. I hope I can do that plus have a case on it. Here is what I'm talking about.

That's pretty cool but you would be limited to having your phone on that one spot forever.

I just tried my Nexus 5 on a LG WCP-300 wireless QI charger and it seems to work up to 10 or 12mm of paper.
Not sure what the different cases are made of but I had a Ringke slim case for the past year on my old Nexus 4 with no problems at all. (again tried it with 10mm of paper for a test and it works fine).
Distance away from the charger might affect how fast it can charge, and different chargers might perform differently, YMMV.
nevermind on my post

I just got Spigen Slim Case [Ultra Fit] and (Upgraded) RAVPower Qi-Enabled Wireless Charger and my N5 has no problems charging through the case (actually I can hold the phone almost 1/2 inch above the charging pad and it still chargers).

Add to the list:

RAVPOWER AMAZON LINK
MOCREO(TM) 10000mAh High Capacity Portable Power Bank Qi-Enabled Single-Position Wireless Charger Charging Pad TX-5600 (DoCooler, Choe, and Skyrocket are all the same as this one) (Works really good and it's completely wireless!!!! << About $50-$70 too!
SOLD OUT BUT LOOK UP THE OTHER ONES I NAMED
Just about any case will work with the current wireless chargers so this thread is pretty redundant to the other wireless charging threads.
However, I might as well contribute.
LG WCP-700 (Works well with the Neo Hybrid case)

AWESOME. I just ordered a wireless charger yesterday and I have that case, good to know
btw the gold is an awesome color
Anyone tried if:
1. The official nexus Charger works with the neo hybrid
2. Are the magnets strong enough to be used as a car mount with the case?
Unfortunately the Spigen Neo Hybrid doesn't works with the Nokia DT910, it makes the Nexus 5 being a little more up on the stand, and the recoil for the wireless isn't aligned anymore and don't want to charge ... Now I have a case to sell if anyone is interested (Neo Hybrid Champagne Gold)...
Spigen Neo Hybrid works with official wireless charger, and magnetic capability work too !

I have the Neo Hybrid and the DT910 - works fine. Occasionally it won't start charging if I set it on the stand mis-aligned, but if I'm a little careful it works...use it for every overnight charge as a night clock, too. My DT-900 plate on my desk also works perfectly with the Neo Hybrid case.

Can you see if the magnets are powerful enough to hold the phone like it would be mounted in a car?
I have the Nillkin Magic Disc, works perfect with Neo Hybrid Gold.

I wouldn't rely on the magnets for this in the car if I was using a case. I wouldn't have any problem relying on the magnets when the phone is not in a case (I don't use one myself) as the official nexus magnets are very stable, provided you practice with it to get really used to getting it in the sweet spot...it's kinda funny, for me it feels almost like it notches into place if I give it just the right amount of force on the phone) but through the thickness of the case, I'm sure it would be very prone to falling off.
Not to mention when you hit a bump in the road. Come to think of it, maybe even without a case it would be capable of popping off. Don't know, I don't drive.
( I do use the official charger at home, mounted in the similar way as what you would have in a car though, it's attached to the side of my dresser which is next to my bed so I can just turn over and look at it if needed, and so it works well with voice commands if I'm taking a nap or whatever. )
I've been using the Nokia DT-900 and the Spigen Neo Hybrid Case with no problems

Can you explain, please: did you use official Samsung wireless back cover & Spigen cover + wireless charger?
Or some Qi receiver and standart back cover?
I just bought samsung wireless back and it's work fine, but I afraid that spigen cover didn't fit.
If you use standart back cover and Qi receiver, did it fit well in spigen case in result?
Thank you!

Will it work on our devices?

Check out this IndieGoGo project for a wireless (QI) car charger, Air Dock. Sounds like that's what you are looking for. Funding ends in 29 days...
I used an old Samsung qi pad, a cheap universal mount, and a standard micro usb charging cable and made my own.

I found out the hard way that this will NOT work with our devices, for some reason. The new Nexus wireless charger seems to only work with Nexus devices. My Nexus 7 works fine with it, but my Maxx doesn't respond to it at all.
I use the LG Smart Fit 2, it works awesome waiting for iBolt to release theirs to try it out.

I pledged a couple days ago. Hopefully it works with the Maxx. I'm a little concerned that it might not be a free-positioning Qi charger. My Maxx is pretty fussy about how it is placed on cheap Qi chargers.
that Airdock looks awesome, let us know how it turns out.

I don't think that's a free-positioning Qi-charger, so that's largely to be expected. I have a couple TYLT Vu chargers. They work pretty well, although I need to center it on the charging dock within about a centimeter. That's not hard to hit, but that's supposed to be one of the most forgiving Qi chargers in terms of positioning.
I'm an early bird on Air Dock. I'll let you know how it works as soon as I get in February.
It said the Air Dock requires a glossy back to work, not sure how the Maxx's kevlar backing will go, but thats the only thing stopping me from ordering one right now.
There is a Nexus 5 version with magnetic field for better grip. I hope it will work all together.

I'm 99.(9)% sure that it has metal body/tray for components inside. So it should stick to magnets in the dock.

I have the Mountek nGroove Snap car mount that was used in the DIY charger linked in this thread. The mount comes with metal plates to attach to your phone so that they can be attached to the mount magnetically. The Droid Maxx attaches to the mount without the need of the plates. So yes, either a metal frame or its own set of internal magnets.
Interesting...I might spring for the Air Dock then.
Although it looks like it exploded in popularity and now the price is $63 and delivery a month later.
Good news, Air Dock has raised 60000!

I can't wait when I get my early bird. I'll share my experience here once I get it.
yeah I do agree Air Dock is a faboulous item, but according to their timetable the first shipping will be on April...
Anyway do you guys think Air Dock will stick to TPU Gel skin cover?
The 'S' shaped one
I`m not quite sure about it..
I'm an early bird and I should get mine in February.
I think it should work with you case just fine. From my point of view it should grip even better comparing to Kevlar.
