Hi guys.
Will the ringke fusion case work with magnetic chargers like dk36 and dk45? Both without any cutting or something?
I see it has cutout for magnetic cable but not sure about the charging dockd
Thanks

It has a really big gap there, so you should be fine.
I need to be sure but thanks.
Anyone using such combo?

I have the case, the part of the case near the magnetic area is almost like a cord in the front and there's the back plate behind with no siding in between at all, so you should be fine.

Hi guys.
I currently have a case from mobile fun that has s-view and qi charging. it is good but the screen is scratched and has seemingly made scuff marks on the phone screen also. at least i have a screen protector on.
i dont really utilise the benefits of the s view like music from the home screen etc and as soon as it moves slighlty off centre the full screen shows below so i lose the s view screen.
so, i want a case, not just a replacement back that has qi charging but not a flip cover/s view.
do they do them and are there any recommenations?

Glad you had a screen protector.
For the case you're looking for, I don't think so. Most people on here are using Qi insert receivers. Mine works fine. Use what ever case you want.

It's it easy to use a qi insert? Which is a good one, i read a lot about over heading with them.
I like the spigen slim armour case, any experience with it?
Cheers for the help

This thread has a lot of info... a lot.
I never tried that case, I use an insert with the Spigen Neo hybrid... works well... The insert is ineffective 5mm away from the charge pad. 1mm is taken from the insert and the backcover of the pphone... that leaves you with 4mm. Your case needs to be less than 4mm thick. I think the slim armour meets this.
Happy hunting.

Looks good to me...
This is the receiver i have:

Not sure what the nfc does for the charger.
Check out the thread I posted earlier... and then you can make a decision on the charger. I got something cheap and stylish for my nightstand but works fine.

I googled it but what I found doesn't seem like it would fit. I hate the amount of dust stuck inside the charge port, anyone know of a cover that would fit over it to keep it clean?
Your best bet would probably be a case that has it built-in. I know the ZeroLemon Rugged and Ghostek Cases have them.

Here's a package of 10 from a quick search for "micro usb 3.0 dust plug": http://www.l-com.com/usb-protective-cover-for-usb-30-type-micro-b-plugs-pkg-10
those look like they would only cover USB type connections. Maybe im wrong?
Covers
Charger covers are built in if no built in cover you have with your phone then there is no way you can protect.

Not true. You can buy charge covers, or "plugs" for almost any connection.

I've been looking for one myself with no luck either...please post if you find one.
Just do a Google search and you will find lots of USB 3.0 dust covers.

Hello,
I haven't use charge port covers for my cell but if you keep your charger at clean place or in any case no need to have any cover for it.
Yay for the fact that the Otterbox Commuter and Defender have inbuild port cover for both the USB3 and Audiojack openings.
But anyway: http://www.l-com.com/tabbeditem_mobi.aspx?id=27923
These are for USB3. If you want to cover the audiojack, look for 3.5mm dust plugs

Just got my ultra today. I also got 2 cases delivered. Both of these cases neither one of them has a cutout for the charging dock ports. i have the dock and obviously want to use a case that i can use on the dock.
can anyone recommend a hard or tpu type case that will meet my needs? no idea why these cases wouldn't have the proper cutouts
I've just bought an Incipio Watson case which also doesn't have a cut-out for the magnetic connector.
I plan to spend two minutes this evening with a craft knife fixing the problem!

yeah, i was hoping it wouldn't come to that but i guess it may. it seems the only case i can find online with the proper holes ships from china.
can't get anything from amazon now with the proper holes shipped quickly, i bought what they had. sucks.

I finally broke down and ordered one of these.

Have to order from overseas but it does have the dock/charger cutout.. I payed $21.11 shipped

You could try the Nillkin fresh series. I didn't really like the plastic back but what i like is the screen cover and that it has a cutout for the magnetic charging port.
Unfortunately, just because a case has the cutout, doesn't mean it works. this is the one I've got and while it fits in the DK30 dock (with the bigger inlay), the problem is that the dock has the phone sitting at an angle and I can't get the magnet to "grip".
I tried my best modding the thing to fit, didn't work out. So good luck with yours, please report back if you've been lucky enough to find something that works.
I also use the magnetic charging port for charging. I found the following TPU case. I purchased one in smoke, and liked it so much I then purchased another one in black. Works great. Highly recommended!
The item is: Black Matte TPU Silicone Gel Case Cover For Sony Xperia Z Ultra XL39h C6802 on eBay
Sold by mobilethink
(I'd list the direct link, but I am not allowed as someone who hasn't posted enough). I hope this helps.

has all the charging ports and the grip on the sides is awesome. i have the other cases recommended in this thread as well. i like this the best by far.

Thanks for the info on the case, I have the same case that I bought more by luck than judgement when I bought my Z ultra.
Please could you let us know if the case works with:
A.) The official magnetic dock
B.) A magnetic charging cable
C.) Both of the above
Cheers,
Rob
Rob, this case works with the charging cable. I'm not sure if it works with the charging dock as I don't own one. I hope this is (somewhat) helpful.
Good luck,
Josh
Thanks Josh, I'm going to order a cable for my shiny new toy
Cheers,
Rob
After dropping my beautiful phone and getting the corner peeled I decided to look for this exact combo; a case with a charging dock connection cut out that works with a magnetic cable. As you guys already know the charging port flap becomes pretty flimsy after a while and I did not want to risk it breaking.
After much trial and error I found a combination that works.
This cable:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Magn...agnetic-USB-cable-charger-for/1708094470.html
Works perfectly with this case:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NILLKIN-Ult...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item1e945842a2
The Nillkin case itself is pretty good but I'm also pretty sure that this cable will work with other cases that have a similar cutout. The magnetic connection from the cable is not that strong but gets the job done.
Thanks for post a working combo

Looks better than the $2 ones. How much bend does this have? How soft vs rigid?
Hi there,
Would like to find out if anyone has tried and proven good covers/cases/bumpers that are dock-friendly?
Thought this would be a good place to start and share.
Thanks,
Chester
Case-Mate Barely There is dock friendly, just use the 45B plate for the dock will do.

I have the Case-Mate Barely There and I can confirm that IT DOES NOT fit with the official Sony magnetic dock using either 45A or 45B inserts. I haven't found a single case that does fit as yet... and charging without using an insert isn't ideal as the slightly knock causes the connection to be lost....

although, just to argue with myself, I've contacted Case-mate and they state that it should fit the magnetic dock. So either I'm being really thick, or my inserts for the DK48 aren't correct, or both......I'm going to recheck tonight!

The DK36 works with the Case Mate Barely there and the wider of the two inserts included in the packaging. It was about $20 on Amazon. It charges pretty quickly as well.

It will fit with 45B insert, unless you have glass screen protector on. The glass will cause 45B to be not fit.

This definitely isn't the case for mine - doesn't fit and I don't have a glass screen protector. However, I've found that it does fit with one of the inserts for the Z3 Compact - 35B, I think it's called - I'd always assumed this insert would be smaller so stupidly hadn't tried it, but perhaps the Z3 Compact is slightly fatter.
I'm not sure whether my case, or the dock is at fault here....

I've done a short review of the Smart window style cover (dock friendly) in this thread.

I know this isn't the answer to your question, exactly.. but... I went and looked at the dimensions of the Z3/Z2 and their respective docks and the extra thickness of the Z2 means its dock is just a tiny bit deeper... so I bought one and it accommodates a Z3 with a snap-on shell case *so* much better than the Z3 dock, even with the adapter. The TPU cases still don't fit without struggling to get it in and out though. The Z2 dock is also around half the price (or less).
AWESOME mount, works with most TPU cases or on the outside of "thicker" cases; also Qi still works just fine.

What ad sir? This is a legit product, I've done many reviews for other products. But thanks for your stupid comments
I ordered this product - it does interfere with Qi charging. There is no placement on the phone that the steel plate does not interfere with. It's a shame though as the mount is awesome and holds the phone well. But if you want Qi charging as well, this isn't the product you're looking for.

did you stick the metal plate on the outside of your spigen? or did u just place it between your phone and the case like in the video? I'm considering this mount...but not sure i want to stick someone on the outside of the case permanently.
Thanks!

Just knowing how Qi works, my gut instinct is to not slap a piece of metal in between the coils regardless of if it starts charging or not.
