sure looks like it
I don't know, but it is great ad. Best I have seen for an android phone!
It looked like a universal dock the first time I saw it. Nice avatar by the way. Can't wait for the second half of the season.

No way. There's no cable going to it.
It would probably never be released like every other accessory Google has planned.

The battery in the status bar, though, doesn't have the electricity bolt icon that you see when it charges. So I'd assume it's just a regular stand. Not wise when using GPS constantly

I'd say PRECISELY because it's a commercial, they would want to make the charging part really clear. At least from the years I worked in publicity video production, the director and representatives from the ad agency and brand itself were always paying huge attention to details like those.

Probably because it's a commercial and they didn't want to show any clutter. I'm going to go ahead and think it's an inductive charger car dock that somehow magically also does audio.

I have to assume if it was a legitimate accessory for the Nexus it would not have a universal cradle as shown.

Looks like a style matched screen holder with magnet to me. Hope it does have a charging capacity.

It looks like the official charging orb with holders on it! I hope so bad this comes out!
I don't see how this could be a charger its not connected to a power source so i can't see how it would charge your phone through just the windshield would be nice though but highly doubtful
this is the closest i found to a charger/dock for it which would be nice but i don't use my gps enough for this

Yeah, but they charge through the micro usb port instead of inductive charging through the battery like a touchstone.

No Powermat for us, and I doubt there ever will be. The Epic isn't popular enough.
Wow, not popular enough.. That sucks
But I feel like galaxy s as a name does have the popularity.. they could do something.. I mean honestly the nexus s is like our twin and it is nexus line....

There have been tons of phones modded to accept the inductive charge.
Most of the mods include buying a palm pre charging stone and battery cover and removing the inductive circuit from the battery cover and putting it on the receiving phone and making the right connection.
It was actually an extremely simple mod if you know anything about electronics.
dam that sucks cause if your really think about it the evo has the same backing as the epic so it wouldnt be that hard!!

Great guide but there is no way I could do this.
I did that with an EVO. The Epic looks a little harder because of where the solder points are at. I wonder if could be another spot to hook up the + to.

If you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you.
well how strong is the usb charger port on the epic i know on the BB it sucked and i had to get the phone replaced a few times a power mat would fix this if it is crappy on the epic or is it built for the abuse and the amout of times u need to charge it
For people looking for a wireless charger pick this up. Works 100% perfectly with Nexus 4, been using it for a week without a problem at all. I just ordered another one for home as I was using first one in office.
Sold on Amazon and in Verizon stores. Absolutely loving wireless charging. Any questions let me know.

Excellent charger
I can confirm that it does indeed work with a tpu case. And it works great. Some of the comments on amazon complaining about all the beeping is really crazy as it only does it when you first place it down. Otherwise it is quiet. I have two, one for myself and the other for my wife and they both work the same way regarding the beeping.
Again highly recommend this charger and about where you place the phone to charge it is very good as you do not have to place it exactly in the same position.
I just got the charger today, it charges really fast but the phone also becomes hot really quickly too. Is this normal?

Mine gets a bit warm while charging with the WCP-700, so I believe it is normal.

So I decided that I want to get one today, since it's probably going to be a while before the charging orb is out, but I can't find it in stock at a reasonable price anywhere! There aren't any in stock on Amazon or Newegg, and they don't seem to exist on Verizon Wireless's web store.
Anyone know where I can find one for around $50.00?

Does your WCP-700 charge your phone to 100%? Mine only charges to 97%

Broke down and bought one from Verizon today. Works awesome.
And mine seems to be stuck at 97% right now.

This is expected behavior. It charges to 100% BUT if you remove it and put it back on when the phone has over 95% charge it will not charge until it drops below 95%. So if you let it charge it will go all the way up to 100% but if you then remove it and put it back it will not beep and the battery indicator will turn green until the battery drops below 95%.

Just wanted to make a quick review since i didn't find one in the whole forum and on google, about the official samsung dock, paired with our beloved Nexus 4, in the past few days i took the time to inspect the Nexus 4 size VS the official dock size and came to the conclusion that it would fit, so i bought it, a few days later BOOM new dock and when i tried my theory... well it worked like a charm =) it fits perfectly and look great Just take a look it fits perfectly, charging is as fast as directly connected, i will keep updating this thread with more details, right not i don't have a 3.5 mm AUX cable to test it, but it's a complete "GO" to the people thinking of getting one, thanks for reading folks.
What Samsung model is that dock made for?
Looks like the universal Samsung dock.

You must of died.
But anyways. I own this dock as my girlfriend uses it with her S2.
-Aux port does not do anything with the Nexus 4.
-Daydreams do not turn on either (unless set to activate while charging as well)
This dock is just a fancy wall charger for the N4.

I have forgotten my charger at home and won't be back for a few days but I need my tablet for class. So I ask do I have any options? Or do any local stores carry the cable?

I'm not 100% sure, but maybe nexus7 cable can work. And if that can be confirmed, you're more likely to find that at staples, best buy, etc.

Note that you still need the TF charger - with standard 5 volt USB, it may take more than 24 hours for a full charge.

I don't know for sure, but I don't think the N7 has the same charger, since I believe that uses a regular micro USB.
Why wouldn't you check caseen. They seem to have TF chargers in stock on their website.

Ahh, thanks for confirming.
I wasn't entirely sure and was basing it on the fact that n7 also built by Asus and that my zagg power supply will only charge my phone and not tablet.
Only after buying zagg power and trying to use it unsuccessfully for tablet, I saw it said online that it won't work with n7, but they didn't mention our tablets, so I thought same cables etc. Oh well, good to know. Now I've just realized I've never seen (irl) or played with a n7 yet, wow.
Good luck op!

I haven't found any local stores that carry any accessories when my cat chewed up mine. Amazon has a few different brands. There is one that houses the wires in rubber instead of the normal plastic that I liked. Its also 6' long which is nice.
I'm thinking about picking up the wireless charger for this phone and wondering if anyone has any experience with it. I would live to know the charge time by comparison to the wall charger, is there much if a difference? Any input with someone that has experience with it would be great, thanks

I love wireless charging. It's just no hassle, and since I'm kind off paranoid of breaking the micro USB port on my N5 because it's really tight, it works. It's not as fast as the plug in charger that came with the phone due to the inherent inefficiencies or wireless charging, but it's still pretty quick. Depending on how low your battery is when you start charging, it would probably take 30-60min longer. But, I'm never really in a rush, and always keep my battery topped off, so I'm never in dire need for a super fast charge.
A word of caution though: STAY AWAY FROM THE TYLT VU. It has a serious issue with sporadically overheating your device. Check out these threads:

Once you go wireless, you won't go back.
I'm using my Nexus 4 Orb and it works great. It is a little slower than charging via a micro-usb cable, but if you're like me and charge overnight, it won't be an issue.
