Or you can just get the Verizon SGS-3 backplate with capacitive charging built in, an Energizer charging station for $20 on Amazon, and enjoy the rest of the day. :good:

Yes, if you want to spend $40 on the back, and another $47 on the Energizer charging station, and have a phone that is thicker and heavier. That's a very good solution to save five or ten minutes! That's assuming you can even find one!

Couldn't you do these mods and sell them for profit?
I'd rather pay an extra 20-30 bucks on top all other costs than do it myself. Though it would have to be a solid build, not something put together with a car kit.

I could, but it's not worth it to me, and it's really pretty easy (and fun). Also, the battery cover is not so cheap, so by the time you added up all costs, and made a decent profit, the kit would cost $50-$60! (And people are doing it on Ebay already!)

Car kit was meant to be duct tape. I have no idea what I was thinking about at the moment.
But yeah. I'll check ebay and probably buy one if it was that cheap (relatively speaking - 90 bucks from verizon and it looks like ass).

thats what I bought (or one like it same pictures same price)
Grr its from china of course Grrr have to wait. already got the touch stone. MAN that is an insanely tiny cavity the stinking usb cable has to fit in. samsung charger cables should fit fine though they are nice and skinny.
I will report back with results once I get it AND report just how "thick" a case will work with the touch stone. I don't care if the magnet holds or not (I will design a holder around it) just need it to charge through my hybrid case. fingers crossed

A few fine points

a couple of points:
1. The Samsung cable and charger probably WON'T work. The Touchstone is very picky about chargers and cables, I suggest just buying the Touchstone charger, they are about $4. See the link in my main post.
2. It works fine with my Rock Case, and also with a thicker TPU case. It may not work through a very thick hybrid case, although some have cut a hole in the inner silicone over the charging coil, and gotten it to work.
Let us know how it goes.

interesting. I have actually "stocked" up on oem samsung cables because they have proven SO reliable in working with "everything" same with KINDLE cables (but they cost 2.5 times as much but are VERY nice cables)
I won't use the stock charger I have 2amp chargers I use for all my usb stuff.
I will check the link for the OEM cable $4 is well worth it. I ordered a few cheap touch stones but ones that come with cables are MUCH more expensive
I will try it and see what happens. sadly between case and wireless charging case is more important to me (expensive phone) so fingers crossed
maybe I can "make do" with a thinner but still protective case most of the time and just use the hybrid when I am getting into "rough" activities we shall see.
while it won't work with my HYBRID cases that I use it will work with an otterbox. I could put the coil under the poly carb layer of the OTTER BOX case (I don't have an otter yet so not 100% sure of this) and then run that to contacts on the cover and THEN run contacts inside the cover to the phones contacts. that would move the coil right to thin case distance from the touch stone.
we shall see.

I contacted the seller and he confirmed, NFC does not work with the wireless charger cover.

I will be very angry if that is true I specifically asked him to test nfc with wireless back andhe said he physically tested it and confirmed nfc still works fine

It should work fine, although you may have to wave the upper part of the back of your phone over the NFC tag, as the coil may block the lower part of the phone.
That's why I revised my instructions for my mod to move the coil lower on the phone, so that NFC would be less finicky.

Wow, no need to be a jerk. Some people don't want to lose NFC or compass. Also, some people would rather not tamper with their phones.
By the way, its not $40 and $47, its $20 for the back and $20 for the palm charger.

I got back cover from ebay for $29.99 + $5 for palm touchstone. My Galaxy s2 charger works perfectly for touchstone. If not, you can buy it for $4. Not bad for $35 - $40.

I wasn't being a jerk, but simply correcting your misinformation. NFC is not lost at all, nor is the compass function if you use the original Palm metal disks. And the cost of the Verizon back is $39 not $20. (See the link below.) Also, it is very hard to find, and isn't in stock online. Amazon lists the Energizer Qi for $47 unless you buy it from a dubious seller. By my math that's $86 total for a mod that costs less than $20 if you do it yourself. I completely understand your last point, which is that some people don't like DIY solutions, and if that's true, then it makes sense to go your way. Or if you have two SG3's, and want to use the same Qi pad.

How does the Ebay cover work? Do the pins line up well?

Pins lined up well. However after putting the cover on, I noticed that the back of the phone is not flat. It has a slight curve in the middle which you can notice when you put the phone on a flat surface and it wobbles.
I also have a slight gap between phone and cover (on right hand side only). Because of the added mass of the charging circuit, the cover does not sit flush with phone. This doesn't bother me though as you'll only notice it if you look for it.

accessories for the best evo experience.

32gb microsdhc card.
3500mah battery

Any suggestions for different accessories to serve the same purpose?
Skip the 3500 MAH as there seems to be some battery door issues.
Get some back up batteries and an extra charger. Throw an extra battery in your wallet and you will be happier for it!
Get a high quality case! Seidio makes a nice active line, Casemate "Barely There" looks pretty slick, and the TPU cases out there are GREAT. Find something you like that covers and protects without too much bulk. Also, bonus if they are easy enough to get on and off.
Buy PLENTY of MicroUSB cables. Trust me, as I have 4 in my house and one in my purse to take care of any charging needs.
Buy a quality Car Charger. You can find good ones from reputable online sites for not much money or goto walmart and buy the one for BlackBerry Storm and it will work brilliantly. This phone is very sensitive to chargers, so if its blackberry or HTC approved, it should work just fine.
Root your phone with NAND! This is the biggest thing in getting the most out of your phone if you are not afraid and feel pretty confident. think of how many people JB their iPhones? Well this is actually more essential to get what you want and make the device as autonomous as possible.
GOOD LUCK!

Yes there are serious female geeks. My purse is silver and stylish and I own about 30+ pairs of shoes. Yet I have a full electronics workbench with solering station, MM, drill, Dremel, and full sets of hand tools in metric and us ( sans an osc scope - waiting for a DSO nano ). Parts hidden in colorful rolling drawer carts.
My boyfriend is equally geeky ( he is a .net enthusiast) and we bond over making arduino projects, music applications, and learning from each other.
Maybe someday we can be like the great Ladyada and her crew.

also no problems with the 3500mah door. I've popped mine on and off about a dozen times at least in the last two weeks.
regular guy, pocket kept except at a desk or a car. I posted this review on another forum for the battery:
Positives besides the battery life:
when i put it on a table face up it looks like it's hovering all the time. It looks awesome. Everyone is curious.
It's very protective of the camera lens. It's like impossible to damage the lens unless you actually try.
The material feels cool.
It now weighs enough to be used as a ranged weapon (1d6+2 19-20/x2 if anyone is wondering)
Negatives besides the bulkiness:
Not enough holes at the speaker, I'm not sure why this is an issue at all, i'm disappointed in Seidio's design testing. The lack of holes actually makes a difference in sound quality and volume, albeit VERY minor, I noticed it when I swapped and I did further testing and now it bothers me.
Covers the red rim around the camera lens. I honestly liked seeing that red rim. I know, I'm reaching, but I really did like it.
where can i find a girl like that!!!

HDMI charger dock $20 shipped.

This appears to be an OEM version of the official HDMI charging dock. Doesn't come with cables. Uses a standard HDMI cable. Beats the $45 retail price. Perfect timing for full HDMI capabilities.
http://cgi.ebay.com/OEM-HDMI-Dock-C...285843093QQcategoryZ20336QQvarZQQcmdZViewItem
EDIT: Looks like the seller jacked the price up by $5. But there's still the option to make an offer. Some have mentioned getting it as low as $15. When I first posted this and ordered mine, best offer was not an option.
EDIT: Now up to $40 You can still try to make an offer. According to others he has accepted as low as $15.
Bought one of those a few weeks ago - doesn't include the micro-USB or micro-HDMI cable but it's an awesome dock. (Monoprice.com has the cables for a few bucks)
Big recommendation for this dock.
$20? Dock? HDMI? SOLD!
Anyone know if this will fit an Evo with an extended battery?

No, it specifically says it won't in the auction description.
Nice find! Ordering mine now.
Great find, thank you.
I got this in the mail today. It's definitely the HTC brand. Very high quality. It rests in the dock very snug. You can operate the touchscreen with one finger easily without pushing it over.
Sweet deal, just ordered one.
Just got this for $15 through best offer. Have not even received my Evo and ordering accessories already.
Anyone know though if the phone fits in this with a case like the Innocase or Barely-There case?

No, I really don't think any case will. There is absolutely no extra space in the cut-out for the phone when it is in the dock.
Not a bad price at all. I already have a dock for charging, and I have an HDMI cable for watching movies. I just dont see the benefit of this. I'll just keep my phone laying on its back while I'm watching movies instead of sitting in this dock.... and spend my $20 elsewhere
I'd be all over it if it fit with the platinum case. Don't see the point in removing the case just to dock.
thank you for the tip
Picked one of these up. It works for me because I have a bunch of cables hanging in front of my PC. Have the micro usb hooked to the PC for transferring files, a micro usb plugged into an outlet for faster charging, my micro hdmi cable to hook into my monitor and a mini usb for a camera. This dock eliminates two hanging wires and replaces them with a pretty cool dock =P
just got mine in the mail, perfect condition... and it is HTC oem... its great!!! need pics anyone?

What a great deal. I look forward to your review. I agree even if the cases suck you get some great accessories.
I already had a post on this. I think I was the first to recieve one. I paid 9.99. I have some pics and was very impressed with the silicone and you case. Although the flu was supposed to be black and the clear silicone. They were the opposite. All the holes were cut and lined up very well. All accesories were 2100ma.
Too many pics to post so here's an album.

Whoa, did you get this same package that's linked to Amazon for only $9.99? If so, where? $10 is worth it even if it's to have an extra USB cord/charger for the office. I hate carrying my one proprietary cable around to make sure I have enough juice wherever I go.

Yes I did get this same one. I caught it the first morning they posted it. A few days later amazon picked it up for $19.99. Now it's at $35.99. The two skin type cases fit perfect with the slimmest profile. The leather case as stated in my post is backup purpose type. The fishbone is for rolling up your headphones where they don't get tangled up. Shipping was two days and they shipped the same day I ordered it.
I got this when it was $9.99. I wish I'd bought more than one!
I had originally purchased the flip case at Best Buy when I bought the Tab for $49. I like the flip case in this bundle deal much better!
Funny as it may seem I've grown accustomed to using the stylus. I like it a lot.
The two power supplies included, car and wall, are both 2100ma so they're strong enough to charge the Tab.
The two snap on cases, a black gel-like one and a hard plastic clear one, fit perfectly. In fact, the clear one fits so good it's hard to get off.
The ear buds included are smaller than normal. I normally hate ear buds but these fit my ear canal much better and are really comfortable.
I'm amazed at all the stuff that I got for $9.99. This is better than a Woot Bag of Crap!
Even at $35 it's an excellent deal. Go for it.
Quick update to what has already been reviewed:
1) Silicone cases are great, both black (favorite) and white
2) Portfolio case is great, especially if you carry business cards
Pretty much everything else is junk The car charger doesn't actually charge the TAB. The retractable plug would be awesome if it charged from a computer USB or car outlet, but it doesn't. The fishbone was a neat idea, but it actually kinks up your headphone cord (and is a PAIN to unravel).
My screen cover didn't align with my Galaxy - the 'hole' was offset to the camera (it aligns with the light sensor - weird).
The only other thing I used was the aux cable - it is good for plugging the TAB into my home stereo system.
For the three cases, its still a good deal - but don't get your hopes up
Ghost
And, now it's up to $50. Not worth it at that price.
So I went in for one of these..
Initial impressions:
The 3 cases.. Eh.. the leather book case makes the tab SUBSTANTIALLY heavier.. However, since I'm using a netbook bag to carry everything around, this doesn't bother me. Its sturdy, and as long as I have a level surface, I can stand it up.. The rubberized covers fit nice, and I've not decided which I'm going to stick with (using the bookcover for now)..
The stylus works
The car charger WORKS..
The screen protector: Someone had mentioned fitment issues, but I had none of that.. All the holes lined up where they should, on the cases and the protector itself.
The extra 30-pin non-retractable cable is basically a duplicate of the stocker.. works for power charge in the car at least, I've not tried a data connection..
I've not tried the retractable one for anything, nor the AC adapter. Total cost was $57, and while not cheap, the cases and the working car adapter helps me justify the cost.. the rest is gravy.

Excellent cheap sync cradle for the T-989

I got 2 of these off eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-SAMSUNG...159056?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3f0f089010
They are meant for the "standard" (AT&T or International) GS2's but it fits my new T-989 perfectly even with the DIZTRONIC TPU case on it. It probably fits most any device with a bottom micro-usb port on it. It comes with a removable rubber adapter for smaller devices. Not bad for $11 from China. Got it in about 10 days. It's a knockoff of the iPhone Universal base. No audio out ports. Just sync/charge.

I ordered two of the Sinjimoru Sync stands. They're cool looking and lightweight. I removed the two lock tabs on the cable that make the cable stick in tighter. I'm planning on mounting them to something that won't lift up easily when I try to remove the phone. Overall, worth the $22.

It fits my T989 with the Diztronics case no problem and will fit any similar "thinness" case. Snug, but no problem. I looked at the D30 case the other day and put them up against each other and while the left to right size are identical the front to back on the D30 is a bit more and my guess is it wouldn't fit. I was surprised when my Diztronic case fit but it did NOT need to be forced, just a slight push. For $11 you really can't go too wrong.

Do you know if the USB transmits audio and if it has a back 3.55mm jack?

No audio capability, just charge and sync.
thanks I ordered one
They are still tight on the base, and would tip over if you pushed them. They're fairly stable, but it is kind of a pain to use one hand to hold the base grab the phone.
I did fix that today. I went out into the alley behind the loft and grabbed a brick. A few minutes after meeting the dremel and a little bit of epoxy, they're stable.

That's what the stands look like mounted to the brick, and in the Body Glove Diamond cases. I did play a little with some LEDs and lighting the bases up, since they're clear/black acrylic and the light travels through them. I'm going to hold off on that for now, but maybe soon.
to choking am a bit confuse on ur pic is that just a stand whit out the option of charging or a stand whit charger?
There is a cable that comes up behind the stand, and snaps into the stand. It charges, and I bet you could use the stand for other phones, but I can't guarantee that. I know it works fine with the T989.
Well thx for ur response ill see if i get my hands on one this on up coming week

Found a dock that works with TPU Case

Ok ... So after much searching, and not being happy with what I found out there, I finally came up with a solution to a dock that works with the TPU case I have for my E4GT ... Photos attached. The links below are to the case I have, and the dock I bought.
The only thing extra I had to do was take a dremel and widen the sides a bit, took me about 5 min to do each dock( did 3, all working fine ). Let me know what you think, could be a solution for those out there with this popular case and want a working dock that both charges and syncs
I may clean it up a bit, right now my only gripe, and it's a small one, is the phone sits a little to "straight up", which I'm sure could be fixed with a little more dremel work, but for 5 min and $11 it's a good solution in my eyes
TPU Case
Dock off Ebay
How much wiggle room ya got? I've got a Casemate on mine, which adds substantially more bulk than your TPU seems to add.

Yea, that probably wont work for you then ... I can take as much as I need off the back, can take about 1/8" more off each side, but the bottom is pretty tight...
Thanks RubenRybnik, i bought the this cradle off ebay, from your recommendation, for my Sprint ET4G with an extended battery (3800 mah)...works great! I have no TPU case...just the extended battery and back cover. The seller shipped it fast from Korea...product only comes with the dock only-no usb cable or ac adapter. No problem for me since I have many micro usb cables around. He lowered the price to $10.90 (i paid $11.30)...
