here is the official desktop dock from samsung for the SGH-i777
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/ECR-D1D3BEGSTA
is this what you'd use if you just want alarm clock on nightstand? or is there a smaller dock that will be available?
Can the official dock be used to connect it to a TV? Or, is there another dock that allows you to connect to a TV?
Wondering if there will be a Body Glove case like they have for my Captivate. Very nice all purpose case, not too bulky with good protection
Here's some cases to look at from another forum: http://forums.androidcentral.com/t-galaxy-s-ii/123167-here-cases-available-launch.html

Hmmm, wonder if the INFUSE desktop dock will fit (if it does, not perfectly I'm sure) since I already have one.

I absolutely loved my Body Glove hard shell on my Captivate. It was the very best. I got a Ballistics for my SGII - its better than I even expected it to be and I can be very picky.

hmm.. curious if the 'generic' MHL adapters are any different in quality versus the oem.. (in terms of res/quality capacity)
i really want that dock though... no generics on ebay yet... but curious if international one would work... since the port is in the same location...

International only
I actually picked up the first case, in the link to the other forum. It is the AGF Soft Shell with the leather insert. I didn't really like it but it was better than the others and much thinner. I didn't want to risk damaging the phone without a case. I actually like it much better on the phone than in the package. It is a very very tight fit. There are also two holes at the top so I think this case is universal for the international and AT&T versions of the SGS II.
Honestly, once it is installed it feels like it is part of the phone not an added on case. The lip on the display is absolutely minimal. It actually requires a little massaging to completely cover the outer edge. Once in place, it doesn't budge.
I may still return it if I find something better though.
Any news on a dock for the i777? (Like what the infuse has)

I think it's been confirmed that all Notes are the same dimensions.
I bought this today. It looks the most similar to the Samsung one.

I don't see why you would have a problem with either of them. The only accessory that you could run into problem with is the flip covers that replace the back due to the NFC antenna connectors (although the NFC is disabled on the AT&T version so they don't really do much right now).
Here's the same dock as the one you have linked. $6 cheaper.

All accessories can be used with AT&T Note except
- Screen protector (no home button on AT&T Note)
- Back cover (AT&T Note has NFC antenna in the back cover)

Yes, but not all of them though. He was asking about accessories designed for N7000 Note. The original Samsung flip case doesn't have NFC, and we're still waiting to see if samsung flip case from bestbuy preorder will have one or not. Anymode flip case has NFC.

very good assessment of the situation. it has been confirmed by Engadget and others the dimensions between AT&T and international versions are identical.
The only only visual difference is the home button.
All other differences are internal and weight: international Note is 178g while AT&T version is 182.6g
Is there a different model number to know which one has the back? I believe they are both N7000, but is there a separate designation?
Yup, I got a boxwave tpu case for my N7000 a few weeks ago, tried it on my AT&T Note, fits perfectly, all of the mic cutouts, etc are the same

Great to know. Thank you!
Since there isn't any use for nfc at the moment, would it hurt anything to use a different back cover?

I am waiting for my qi receiver, I hope it doesn't block nfc like yours, I wonder why the official samsung s view cover with qi is also equiped with nfc
Sent from my SM-N9005 using xda app-developers app
The Note 3 has the NFC antenna in the battery. The Samsung Qi charging cover puts a receiver coil in front of the stock battery, so they added an NFC antenna in the cover. The two contacts over the battery are for the NFC antenna, the three contacts beside the battery are for the Qi receiver coil and the flip cover functions. Look at the picture of a S-view cover with Qi charging and you'll see five gold contacts.
The non-flip Qi back only has four.
I believe the official S-view covers for Note 3 also have an ID chip to let the phone know what color the cover is, and possibly more.
I am having trouble posting pictures. If you do an image search be aware the some of the returns for Note 3 images will be for other phones, especially Note 2
Sent from my Nexus 10 using xda app-developers app
But the sview qi cover seems like it will never reach our middle east market, so I have already purchased the non qi sview cover about 2 weeks ago, I hope installing the qi patch to it wont interfer with the nfc functionality, also for the sview contacts ill share the ground pin with both the qi patch and and sview cover pins

I've owned a slew of Samsung tablets over the years and Samsung has uniformly released overpriced, horribly built cases for their tablets.
The Tab Pro 8.4 case on the other hand is actually a premium quality case. It compares well to my Apple original Mini Retina case except it is much slimmer/lighter (a good thing). An actual leather finish, and a precise fit.
Not cheap but oh so awesome :good:
i like it too and came free with my 10.1 purchase at BB
Just so expensive!!
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
What is the model number for this case? Where did you purchase it from?
Sent from my SM-T325 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I bought it, and I'm returning it back! The case doesn't protect the tablet as it should: the right side of the tablet stays very exposed (looks like it doesn't cover the whole device), and it's not magnetic to keep it closed - iPad cases are magnetic as well the Poetic case I bought for my Nexus 7 2013 edition. By the way, that Poetic case is very well made, and provides a very good protection to the device. I'm returning the Samsung book case and I'll buy a Poetic for my 8.4.
I'd read some Amazon reviews on the Poetic case. There are claims that the magnets impact the screen negatively. I had an Asuxtek case very similar to the Poetic and found it very bulky.
Also the Apply original case for the Mini does have a slight magnetic grip to keep it closed but is minimal at best.
I read it too today, and for sure it is a real concern. However, it seems to only affect the Note 8, but of course i'm not sure. What I can say is: I have it on my Nexus 7 2013 since brand new and no issues at all. My wife also owns a Nexus 7 2013 and no issues either. But the thing is: if the case starts to cause any issues like those described on Amazon reviews, does it really damage the tablet, or only while using the case?
Just got mine (Samsung case) today from B&H photo...got it barely used for 30 shipped. I feel it's well worth that price. Nearly no added bulk and just enough protection...solid case.
How does it go when using the cover as a kickstand in landscape? It looks similar to the note 8 case which I could not get to stand up correctly, the 2 fold in the case would never stay put and the tablet would fall flat. I want the Samsung case cause of its build quality but only of it does the job it is advertised to do.

I just got my tab and samsung cover tonight. is the magnet on the weak side? it doesn't feel super sturdy and it seems to fall with very little contact.

I understand this. But when I try to use the magnet and cover to "fold" into a stand, the magnet doesn't seem to be very strong. It doesn't take much effort to have it all fold flat and crash to the table/desktop.

I'll have to post up here in a couple days with pics. I ordered a white one. Got the poetic for cheap, seems nice but after reading amazon reviews I'm leery and would rather not risk it. I'm looking for a stand and some protection for travel, I'll post a comparison.
I have a black Samsung book cover for my tab pro 8.4 and so far it works and feels great!

I got a spigen wallet case and was disappointed to find that it doesn't have a smart cover feature like my supcase wallet case had for my nexus 5. I hear some cover cases have this function so it seems the phone is capable of it but I can't find any wallet cases that mention having this feature. It makes it so the screen turns on when opening and turns off when closing the case. Perhaps it interferes with samsung pay? Does anyone know of any wallet cases that have this feature?
bump.
still waiting for a wallet case with that feature
Do you think this might have something to do with the fact that they have that pixel only screen. When your phone is turned off it shows you time on the main screen and only those pixels are activated.
I'm also looking for a case like this. Seems really odd that no one has produced a wallet case that doesn't activate the sleep/wake function. Surely it's just the simple addition of a magnet. This phone has been out for almost a year but there's none of these types of cases. Wonder if Samsung have some sort of patent on the technology blocking others from using it because the official cases work the smart features so why not others?
I have tried a couple of the apps that will do this. . They aren't perfect but ok . I went back to my Samsung wallet case
