[Q] Charging dock and phone case - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is anyone familiar with a charging stand, either a plain dock or a clock/radio unit, that has a long enough microUSB end that can charge the Note II with a case? Two cases that I have are extremely thin, but I haven't found a charging stand of any type that will allow a connection with a case on the phone. The Samsung Multimedia dock works fine with a naked phone, but I don't want to have to take a Dremel to it to get it to connect to a phone in a case.

Do you mean this kind of dock station? My mum bought one from DSstyles. It is easy to use and charge up the phone quickly.

It's not a permanent mount, but it is nice for trips.

I picked one up last week, I really like its versatility. I use it on my desk at work and if I take a company car I simply take it and use it as a mount in the car.
I used to have that exact head unit.
Just bought two after seeing this. One for my Thunderbolt and one for my G Tablet. Nice find.

thx in advance
Well......
As you may tell the picture above is for a Motorola Defy. This forum is for the Motorola Bravo. The insides are a close match as is the battery is an exact match but the thing is is that the cases are really different. The battery would work fine but the cover would not.
********************************************************************************************************************
There is around on eBay a combination package of a battery plus battery wall charger with usb port on the bottom so that you can charge a battery in it while charging you phone or something else that takes a usb charger, i.e. iPhone, Bravo, Bluetooth headset, etc.
thanks for the recommendation, I did not purchase

Custom Papercraft Wireless Charging Dock - Just sharing some work

So, I got bored of waiting for a wireless charging dock and took matters into my own hand. Used:
Nokia DT-900 wireless charger
3 sheets of cardstock
Glue
It doesn't looks too shabby:

Holds the Nexus 7 well:
Side piece can be pulled to the side....
So the Charging pad can be removed/replaced if need be.
Can't wait to get a case in and test it with one on
I should have been more detailed in starting, only the supports were planned out, the rest was done on the fly, but I might try making a blueprint of it in a few days if it stands up so others can make one and just modify the charging port for other Qi chargers.

You need a qi compatible charging dock. That Sony one doesn't look like it is.

DYI Qi Charger for metal bands for Moto 360

Ever since I did the "mod" and installed my Super Engineer II band on my Moto 360, I was trying to find a way to charge the watch at the office and not have to keep bringing my stock charger back and forth.
And this is what I came up with...
Nokia charger 18USD. Random bracket, I think from a window blinder kit, free... Double sided tape [free-had some in my drawer] and this is what I came up with. Pretty cool travel charger imo. You can substitute double sided tape with Velcro to quickly detach the bracket from the charger. Quick and cheap, especially if you have a nokia charger collecting dust lol.
