I have a Tab 2 10.1 and the Samsung Universal Desk Dock (not Media Dock). I want an always on cover that I can flip over to show the screen while docked (and being charged). What case would work? A thick case probably won't fit in the Dock.
Thinking about the Samsung Book Cover or a IVSO Smart Cover.
Would consider others that work without removing the cover before docking.
Any thoughts on what will work?

Depends on what type of case you like, I got this one
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Clip-In-10-1-inch-Galaxy-Tablet/dp/B007UQRI3E/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1355414411&sr=1-1
Samungs own case, expensive £38.00 but works OK on the universal dock charger. What model is your tab? It took a lot of time searching for the correct case, so many models numbers and most cases do not confirm which one fits which model etc. This one is for the tab 2 10.1 P5110 all cut outs, plus a nifty crometty thing for audio jack when in place.

If you are picking up a Wireless Charging Sticker for your Note 3 and have a S-View flip cover, be aware that the flip cover uses the pins in the back of the phone. Once occupied by the Wireless Charging Reciever you cannot have S-View window functionality such as flip open to wake.

i'm sure you could post it in a already open thread, no need to start a new thread, and many of use know about this.

Hello everyone I wanted to share my experience with a wireless charging pad and a lifeproof case. I purchased the Nuud lifeproof case a while back and ended up having to replace it due to the charging door that snaps closed started breaking. I figured a way to prevent me from opening that little snap door is to go with wireless charging.
I purchased the wireless charging reciever card and the oem charging pad off amazon. Much to my disappoint me the case was too thick for the wireless charge to continually work. It recognizes that its on the pad but would act as if I were plugging and unplugging a power cord every 2 seconds. So I tried to come up with ways to reduce the surface area between my card and the charger pad. I removed the stickers which ended up not being enough but then came up with the idea to remove the top cover of the oem charging pad. Removing this plastic seems like it was just enough to get it to work correctly. The only problem I see now is the phone is actually sitting on top of the coil which brings up some heat issues.
I'm thinking of sewing together some fabric to act as a cover. What do you guys think about this?
BUMP - I have a very thick ballistics case. I am wondering if a solution like this would work for me as well.

I doubt my case is as thick as yours stein but it is working correctly once I removed the plastic cover on the charger pad. Not sure if you have all the items yet but you can find them on amazon for probably around 60 bucks.
Wireless Charging is working fine for me with my Otterbox Defender case and an Incipio Ghost 100 Wireless Charging Base. I'm using a cheap China QI antenna receiver that I got on eBay.

Try moving the phone slightly on the charging pad.
I don't have the factory pad but on both of my qui charging pads the phone needs to be placed slightly above center. If I put it directly on the center I experienced the same symptoms you are describing.

im thinking this oem charging pad is the prob I'm going to order the ghost and see if I get better results.
Hi on my note 3 I decided to be clever and purchase a wireless rear battery cover ... you know not the stick on QI charging sticker that goes onto the battery but the expensive complete replacement cover that replaces the battery cover and adds wireless charging toi the note 3
Well ... just for the record it is THICKER than a normal battery cover so you cant fit the note into a case OTTERBOX Defender in my example
just thought this should be on record ... so the advice is to save money and get the cheapers internal stick on QI receiver and not the replacement rear cover
hopes this is of use and save somebody cash and problems when fitting the note 3 into a protective case if its got the charging battery cover
The best way to save cash is just buy one wireless card. more cheap and no additional thicker.

This one is cheap and it works.... and you use the original back cover, so you can use a normal case. Please be advised that is creates just a little bump just below the camera.

Have you read anywhere that indicates a slim case still works? I have the Incipio case on it and don't want to lose its use but want the wireless charging. Thanks.

It should fit because the bump is not that big [though you better do some research first] . I used a UAG navigator on mine and that case was a tight fitting case and it still fit.

try folding a piece of paper to .5mm thickness, maybe half inch square and put it inside your phone on the upper part of the Note 3's battery, put back cover on, then try the otterbox case.....
look in post no. 1996 of this thread so you have an idea how the receiver looks like.
goodluck

I can't find which case I should buy for my phone when using the wireless charging back cover. Does anyone have any good recommendations?
I thought I would go ahead and answer my own question. For those who are interested in having some kind of case with the Galaxy Alpha and who also want the wireless charging backplate, I am here to confirm that the Spigen Neo Hybrid case for the Galaxy Alpha does fit with the official Samsung backplace and it does charge. The fit is snug however, the lip does cover it as if there was no extra thickness. I have three other covers from Korea and they all aren't able to cover the phone with the wireless charging backplate. I am glad that it works.
For those who never used this brand of cases, make sure to leave on the plastic ring part and don't try to do it in two stages. I thought I had to put the rubber part on and then the ring, however, if you do that, you will most likely break the ring. Instead, just put the phone in the case all at once.
will the official extended battery work with this ?
No, I don't think so. The extended battery requires a special modified case because the battery is too fat and the official charger plate requires the regular battery, as there is no room for a bigger battery. However, in this case, I would recommend getting one of those internal pieces that you can put between the battery and the cover and attach it to the right spot, like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Alpha-SlimPWRcard-Receiver-Samsung-integrated/dp/B00QMIM6EM
I have never used it, but I assume it would work. The only reason why it might not is if it isn't long enough to go over the bigger battery, but I'd say it is worth a try. Qi wireless charging is fantastic! I am going to build one into a desk I bought at the thrift store.
