AT&T is selling official Samsung made desktop docks for the Note. They looked pretty legit too. Anyone try them out yet?

I got one but will be returning it. Works if the case is naked, but place a cover on it, and it won't work. I wish dock designers would make the connection ADJUSTABLE to account for 99% of the public that actually uses a case/protector.

it doesnt do landscape either does it?
I just bought the Samsung one on eBay for $40 shipped from NY. Should be here in a couple days. Seems like it's the same one I had for my skyrocket which was awesome. I plan on writing an nfc tag to put on it so when we have it enabled it goes into dock mode, dims the screen, and turns on alarm as soon as I put it in the dock without me having to do anything

Just wanted to share if anyone is interested in buying a dock, I purchased this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Galaxy-s2-i9100-Zenis-Desktop-Dock-Charger-/330621326245?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4cfa9113a5
It works greats for charging and syncing, is built fairly well (for the price) and comes with a removeable insert that allows you to use a case (so long as it isn't very thick) with the dock. If you have any questions feel free to ask

Hahaha been around here long enough to know where threads go, this was meant to give people another dock option other than the Samsung one since I know a few people are not very pleased with it. But thanks for your "mod" suggestion.

I bought the same dock a couple weeks ago, still waiting for it too arrive! Sadly all of these come from Korea, so it takes a while. From my searching it seems to be the best bang for your buck dock. Guess I will have to see when I finally receive it.
Here is a question though. How snug does the phone fit without a case and the insert in the dock?
its a "tight" fit with the insert. you don't have to force the phone in, but it fits well.
Got the dock today and I would highly recommend it for the price! If you use a case with your phone this is a no-brainier. Personally I do not so I have to use the rubber insert, which for the most part is fine. I just don't like how it is a gray color instead of black. Got this dock for 11 dollars on eBay, i think that is a bargain for this dock.
Does it put the phone in dock mode when inserted into the dock like the oem dock?
I might be getting a HTC Amaze soon (and paying ~$150 on top of the hassle of selling it for a One S isn't worth it for me), and I'm considering getting the official desktop dock and car dock while they're still available...but is it worth it? Seems like getting them in-store is about the only place to get them (if the store has it period), as I only see like two eBay listings for just the car dock on the entire web. I get that they're not too extraordinary (desktop dock particularly), but I don't want to be with the Amaze a few months down the line and not being able to find either for a reasonable price.
i have not even seen the desktop dock anywhere i just got my amaze today from tmobile didnt see it in the store. On another note if you want to trade your s for my amaze let me know lol
I have both the car and desk dock personally. I have them in my store available for purchase, but i know not every T-Mobile store receives them
I wonder if someone who has the car dock would be willing to measure the diameter of the suction cup on it? I have a dash friction mount that I would love to attach the arm of the official dock to, but I don't want to buy it if the suction cup is larger than the surface on the friction mount I have.
Yes we have them in, I'm mad we don't get much amaze stuff but dock is cheap for 49.99

This is interesting. I had no clue there was a desktop dock for this phone. I've never seen it in store. I may have to pick it up and do a bit of modding to make a very useful car dock for GPS navigation as the one I have is a bit.....
I'm sitting on an extra OEM desktop dock that someone didn't end up paying for. Willing to sell for 30 including shipping to US or 40 to Canada. Send me a PM if interested.

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but you can find official HTC Amaze OEM car docks on ebay. Just search for HTC Amaze car dock. They're around 20 bucks.

Ebay... Car dock and desktop dock both for $39.

Received the items yesterday. It's the real deal. OEM Car and Desk dock... still with the T-Mobile price tags attached. The desk dock is listed at $49.99 ALONE!
Since I could never find the car dock, I went with a different solution. I already had the Trident Kraken AMS case so I was able to buy a part from Trident that uses the AMS feature to turn into a car dock. The part is only $15, so if you have a Trident Kraken case, pair it up with a car charger and you are ready to go!
There's no more docks left, oh well

So I finally got the car dock, the official one. It is amazing.

Thanks. I probably won't get one of either, but I wanted people to see where to find them.
- for the car holder, I have not been able to find a charger that will keep up with the battery drain of the Amaze when using data, GPS, and keeping the screen on. I use Google Maps navigation by connecting the BT and turning off the screen. Otherwise this would be a great setup.
- for the desktop, I keep my Amaze in a TPU case. Still I might consider it for home use at night...
Ah, what the heck, I went ahead and bought the car model - what a deal!!

I have TPU cases for my Amaze as well but I bought it not only for the dock but for the "official" HTC charger. I can use it without the dock and it charges fast.
I found this earlier today while looking for accessories. I noticed it priced elsewhere on the web for around $45. It looks like a pretty good deal for at least basic charging dock. I consider the headphones a bonus. The kit is for the NOTE I so the cover should not work.

It should still work for charging as long as there's room to offset the phone a little to the left. The USB 3 jack on the phone will accept a regular USB plug.

I have this dock, bought for $10 at an AT&T store about a year ago. It works fine with the note 3 Verizon model, but only charges at 450mah. It also enables desktop dock mode, which shows some sort of calendar. Additionally, it provides line out for speaker connection, or more importantly for me, car auxiliary connection. I took mine apart as the phone just sits on it (not sturdy for car use). The line out works okay for my car, but it not quite line level. Additionally, the volume of the phone still controls the line level, so it may not be line level at all. I will snap a picture and also post a screen shot of the dock internals when I get time later today.

I'm guessing there's no way the dock will work with a case of any kind on?
Sorry all. I cannot figure out how to change the title to identify it as a note 1 pack. I wish I would have realized it before I ordered it. I'll find a use for it.
These are pictures of the dock, but i took the guts out.
Additionally, i bought one of those cheap $3.50 Caseology tpu cases, and even with the usb and pcb board removed from the dock, i cannot get the usb plug into the port. so case would require much modification to get it fitting.

Anyone wanting the battery cover with NFC/QI, you can get them for about $23 on ebay now. Just posted the link and such in the proper subforum (accessories).
Get one off those and you can put on any case you want.
Not getting the case but definitely looking for wireless charging without changing the profile of this phone.
Debating on getting the quick circle case... I don't really want any case on my phone this time around but the quick circle case looks really cool / doesn't really add any bulk or anything.
Also don't you get some kinda of insurance for free or something if you buy a phone case directly from Verizon, like if it breaks when using one of the cases they sell they will replace/fix it for free? Im still not sure...

Just thought I would post this up for people who want an official LG circle case but don't want to spend the money LG is asking. I got this case from a China dealer on eBay. Case came in LG packaging and all. It does not have the NFC or wireless charging stickers but I just removed the one from my stock back and placed in this one. The only issue I had was in the flap of the case there is supposed to be a small magnet that makes the device sleep and wake when closed or open. There instead was a small piece of metal , no magnet. I was easily able to peel the case apart just enough to remove it and add my own small magnet . I'll add a dab of super glue later just to make sure it stays in place but you cannot tell it's ever been peeled back from just looking at it. Anyways on to the pics!
Do you have a link for the seller?
Thanks

Looks the same as the one on dxbox ! Made in china but not so bad.

Use a hair dryer to heat it up and carefully /slowly peel it off your factor back and with trial and error line it up in your new one.

The case I ordered you need to swap the NFC sticker to make NFC work. You need to add a magnet for the quick circle window to work

My Case
Hey I noticed that you guys were talking about this case. Now here's the weird thing, you guys are saying that your's didn't come with the magnet, but I bought it from the exact same seller and the exact same item a while ago but mine came with a magnet. .
The whole quick circle thing works as well. But there are other problems with this case that make me really don't like it. Biggest one is that the flap just bounces up instead of actually sitting on the phone. It will not stay closed, I tried to fix it by putting my phone face down over night so that it would just stay like that but it didn't really work. Another small problem is that the circle cutout is too small and of centered. It's naturally to much to the right and since it's too small you can't see the little circle animation.
New Case
Hey I was looking around and I found this youtube video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuoy3418sWQ
It compare their product (the blue one) to another (pink one). The pink one seems to suffer from the exact same problems that the one from this ebay seller has. It led me to believe that it's most likely the same case that I purchased. It doesn't close naturally and as you can see the quick circle ring animation is only visible on the right side. Like I mentioned in my previous posts these were things that I really hated. Now this case also has wireless charging and NFC. And it looks OEM as well. I couldn't find where to buy it but I found it while looking around and noticed that this was the same website and seller that other people were trying to buy wireless charging tags from.
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/NeWi...timus-G3-Leather-Case-Leather/1982067236.html
I bet this is the same product in the video. I think that I'm gonna go ahead and buy this. Now the problem is that I have an At&t model so I know that it won't work with wireless charging but I don't see why NFC wouldn't. It's only like 2 bucks more than the eBay one.
In all honesty I couldn't care less about wireless charging I'm just looking for an OEM look of a quick circle case that replaces the back cover. And this fits all of the criteria and is less than 10$.

I received my case yesterday and I'm very happy with it. It looks and feels like the OEM case. It's very high quality and doesn't add too much bulk to the phone. As you've said, the "circle" animation is only seen on the right side of screen, but I can live with that. Maybe it will show the full circular animation when the case is a little more broken in? I don't use NFC or wireless charging, so I don't care much about that. There is a cutout for the antenna, but again, that doesn't bother me too much. I also have the gold version of the G3 and the case is a pretty similar color, but not spot on. Close enough for me.
For those looking for a solid case with huge savings, I bought my case from the link below.
