Any dock for Galaxy S?

e.g. Speaker dock, normal dock for charging,etc
Because i see a lot of dock on iphone, but no dock for android phone?
It would be very useful.

Trouble is, with the USB connector on the top, the normal 'drop in' operation of a dock is not workable.

This is not a dock, but a homemade stand

good job
it reminds me of the old Casio watch boxes
those makes great phone stands

Btw, there are official docks now..
http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/...ype=acc_detail&subsubtype=chargers&returnurl=
So yes.. Possible, and definitely workable..

a bit expensive, and bulky for the car, but it works

There are proper Car docks too (which are very expensive I feel), but they also apparently change the phones profile when you plug it in (so goes to navigation probably). http://www.slashgear.com/galaxy-s-o...aled-desk-car-docks-dlna-hd-streamer-1197250/ Probably also comes with car charger and such
I probably would consider the car dock personally if the GPS fix in september DOES actually work.

The home and car dock apps are now released for Samsung Captivate. So I would say there's a good chance the the official docks will be coming out in a month or two.
To download the apps from the market, you need to have a Captivate phone. Good thing that there's work around. Download My Market from the market, launch it, set provider to US T-Mobile, and search for Samsung.

Is that a 3.5mm audio-out in the back of that dock? I wonder if you could output to both the 3.5mm on the phone and the dock at the same time, probably not but would be interesting.

What is the actual app called? Searching for Samsung brings up hundreds of apps.

Kidigi make one too

The Samsung one is a beaut though, damnit why are all the accessories out of stock?

Hey, so I have found those two stands that are compatible with the SGS, it may worth checking out, since I cannot really post links here it goes

let me know if you already have them and give a quick review if you can.
cheers.

Here is one for the T-Mobile Vibrant I don't see why it won't fit the other models as well
http://www.wirelessphonegallery.com/samsung-t959-vibrant-battery-charger-ECR-D979BEGSTA.aspx

I've got a desk genie... [actually mine was an advertisement for a pharmaceuticals company, but the same thing]
I wouldn't call it a cradle tbh since it's just a highly rubberised surface, the USB hub is nice for charging/syncing. I've not tried placing the phone horizontally on it yet.
The sound sphere looks interesting. tbh I'm really after a desk-cradle; something you physically insert the device into and sync up

Any luck finding a car dock with "integrated" usb-charger?

Can you tell me the exact name for this keyboard? I searched in Amazon and it list tons of different keyboard, most are NOT for the 7+.
I did find this though:
http://www.amazon.com/eWonder-TM-Wi...3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1327626663&sr=1-3

My local discount/closeout store (Marc's, here in Ohio) had a bluetooth keyboard that's a little big but the price was right... I think it would be big even with a 10" but I haven't compared it to the family iPad yet. Made by Merkury Innovations (no, that's not a typo), was $30 at the store, runs on 2 AAA batteries (which is great for a distracted individual like myself who forgets to charge up non-daily-use devices if they don't have very clear low-battery warning indicators). I've had a ThinkOutside folding Bluetooth Keyboard that I've been using with my MyTouch 4G Slide (when I want to type more than I want to do on a thumbboard - I use my Android devices for taking notes in my grad classes when I don't feel like lugging along my laptop). The ThinkOutside keyboard is great for portability so long as I'm not going to be typing numbers very much (has no dedicated number keys and I find the hold down function and number key combo annoying). I'm also working on a novel and the TO is great for that but my grad classes involve a lot of numeric input so I decided I wanted something with numbers. Tested out the MI keyboard, all the main keys are properly mapped. Not entirely sure about the control/option+alt/command keys. It is about the same keyspacing as a standard keyboard but very little room around the edges. Considering picking up another for our media PC hooked to the television in the family room (cheap nettop box, wanted something a bit more advanced than a roku for the kids to play educational games on & such). We use Unified Remote on our Android devices to control that television to good effect, keyboard would be more for the kids to use and this one is good footprint and price for that use also.

Which Marc's?

bought this at my local Fry's. I know it's a little bit longer than the Tab+ but I think it's the perfect size while not making the keys too small and thin enough when i want to pack a keyboard with me. I tried a few where the keyboard was exactly the same length as the tablet and the keys were so small and cramped that it wasn't worth it with all the errors introduced during my typing test.
Manufactured by Azio and can pair and switch between 6 different BT devices via hotkey.
The only thing i was hoping to see by now is a keyboard that has android shortcut keys for the home, back, search, and recent. Has anyone seen a hardware keyboard that does that?

dealextreme case
I purchased that keyboard case from dealextreme. It took a wile to get here but was in good condition. The unit worked fine connected well and works as advertised. I do have several problems with it. The tab does not fit tightly in the holder. The case adds significantly to the size of the tab. There is nothing to hold the case closed. The final downfall is I think I can type faster on the onscreen keyboards.

Logitech Tablet Keyboard
I just picked up a Logitech Tablet Keyboard (NOT the Logitech iPad keyboard - they are different models). Build quality is awesome - this is a solid yet still lightweight device. It had no problem pairing up with the GT+ and did not drop any keystrokes when I used it to type.

Added bonus - the Logitech keyboard fits perfectly in a Vera Bradley "Cheers to You" wine bottle tote. For the stylish girl geeks.

I have the Official Keyboard Dock from Samsung and I really enjoy it.

I finally decided and picked up the Logitech bluetooth keyboard for Android. Pretty nifty; seems like a sold keyboard, synched right away to my 7+, like the fact that the keyboard has its own case that converts into a stable angled perch for the 7+ and that you can use it with the table either in landscape or portrait. Though I do wish it had multiple tilt lockings so I can choose what angle my 7+is perched at. So far, very pleased with the purchase.

Tablet Purchasing Advice

I'm looking for advice on purchasing a new tablet for an after Xmas present.
I've pretty much narrowed it down to a Google Nexus 10 or the Asus TF700T-C1-CG with WiFi 10.1.
The reason I chose the Asus is that I like the ability to dock it to a keyboard then my laptop is out the door! That said, if I do want to go that route I just read where Lenovo is launching a new tablet combo next January that is incredible.
I would really appreciate user's thoughts!
Happy Holidays!

If u plan on rooting and flashing ROMs, get the Asus since it will have the keyboard. If u keeping stock, get the nexus for fast updates

^ Agree.
Also, when it comes to being a laptop replacement, just be aware of the limitations.
I can still use Flash on Jelly Bean, but it might not stay that way forever - well, almost certainly won't. And it's almost certainly going to take web developers longer than that to ditch it for compatibility's sake.
I'm going to be giving some of the Office software a shot, but for some people MSOffice is the only thing that will work for their jobs, or they need something very specific. This also goes for other programs that might not have direct, or good, translations to Android.
I find that I can use my TF101 basically any time I'd be using my laptop - although this is only because I built a desktop that I use for my heavier computing needs.

You can get a bluetooth keyboard for pretty much any tablet or even phone.
The TF keyboard dock isn't just a bluetooth keyboard, though. It's an effective counter-balance what with the large battery in it - a battery that charges the tablet and effectively doubles battery life. In a bluetooth keyboard, you'd either have to have dead weight in the case or a kick-stand, and you'd be charging it / replacing batteries separately - a nice feature of the connected dock is that you'll know the battery level so it won't be a surprise to have it suddenly die (and it will still work as long as the tablet has power). The keyboard dock also benefits from having a hardware connection over bluetooth - and it has two stabiliser connections that don't send data, so that it can't wiggle around, as well as being held against the front and back by the part that serves as the immediate dock. It's very stable, just like a laptop or netbook.
The keyboard dock also has two full-size USB ports and a full-size SD Card slot and a track-pad.
Not trying to be a salesman, just point out the differences between what you get with a bluetooth keyboard versus the TF keyboard dock.
It will be interesting to see what they come up with for the Nexus 10, but it will certainly be more like the Surface than the TF series. The TF series is good for people who want something that can function as both a netbook and a tablet. The Surface is a step above regular bluetooth keyboards, but still isn't the same level of purpose and functionality as the TF dock - but it really depends on what you want.

Thanks much for this great info! One KB that I'm looking at for the Nexus 10 is a Motorola with kickstand, built-in battery, & protective case. Probably not as many bells & whistles as the one for the TF but close.

Hi,
what is about the new Prestigio 8" MultiPad Pro Duo (PMP5580C_DUO) ?
Fast Dualcore and fine Display....

Surface RT - now that they can run desktop apps compiled for ARM

I would say the best tablet is the surface, I love mine and the fact it can do anything a desktop can with the exception of installing legacy apps.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for all of the advice. Unfortunately I missed a few updates from the thread as I've already purchased a Nexus 10. It arrives today.
For those who recommended the Surface, while it's a nice 'hybrid', the price is not justified IMO. I'll see what happens with the Nexus.

You better read all the one review in there.

Well the case isn't a factor since I dont have one, if only he'd review the product before giving it 1 star for his case not fitting. That would have been more helpful.

Does anyone have a solution for hooking up a monitor mouse and keyboard to this phone that supports 1080p?
I hear the official Samsung dock does not support 1080p for any of the phones. I want to get a dock for a galaxy s4 with extended battery but no one wants a blurry upscaled image. I would be fine with just a simple chain of adapters or anything, I just want it to work.
I may even accept just an HDMI adapter and then try to get a blue tooth keyboard and mouse does that work well?
I looked at the afunta and they still do not have any reviews.

what does this have to do with the Nexus 5 section? not wanting to be a forum-nazi, but it's pretty useless in this section.

There is no dedicated android TV forum

Really cool idea and I'd buy one if I didn't already have a Nexus 5, Nexus 7, Chromecast, a Slimport cable, and a PS3 controller. With all that, the possibilities are vast. If playing a game, I'll use my N5, hook it up to the TV via Slimport, and use my PS3 controller. If watching a show, I'll just cast my screen via Chromecast, with the option of using the Slimport cable.
So since the controller is Bluetooth Smart, I can sync it with my phone and tablet, right? Typical Bluetooth syncing process? A spare controller might be a nice little plus to convince me to buy a (another) little gadget device. Like I said, it's a neat idea but I definitely don't need it.

Quite interesting that it's using a Intel processor. Wonder how that will perform. Also any micro SD slot?

Yes, there's a similar question i got:
does it have a usb host port?
As the specs don't mention one (like the sd-slot) i guess there won't be one, what makes sense if you think about their interest in people streaming stuff from google play...
Amazon blocks usb mass storage and google doesn't even add a port, what also makes usb gamecontrollers unusable...

I'll most likely buy one at some point to replace my Roku, but one of the important apps to me is the WWE Network app, and I highly doubt WWE will care enough about their app to update for compatibility with Android TV any time soon. So, I'll have to hold out until they support Android TV.

There is a mini usb port. External storage?

Sigh. Google, y u hate Ethernet?
Another stationary device that eats up wifi bandwidth to save on a 50 cent Gig-E port. Its just plain dumb.

Is there any official information about European availability?
Does it support HDMI-CEC?

I'll get one to replace the Chromecast in our living room. Will be really nice to have a remote to, for example, pause if I get a call. Try to do that on your phone while casting something..
If it hasn't got HDMI-CEC.. that would just be stupid. Hope it has.
Doesn't bother me that it hasn't got wired Ethernet. My WiFi is excellent and I can easily get +600Mbps real performance on my laptop and +250Mbps on my Nexus 5 so the AC-chip on this will do for all my streaming needs and then some.

Any information yet which formats are supported? Is it like chromecast limited to h264 and aac or can it play mkv files with dvd MPEG streams? (how I store my DVD library currently in plex)

My problem is that I don't live by myself, and we live in a relatively high density area (~3k to ~4k sq ft houses on 60 ft lots). We have three tablets, two ipod touches, two smartphones, occasionally a laptop or two. I have really good wifi coverage (using ubiquiti APs). But my next door neighbors media room is really close to our master bedroom suite and she uses wireless for everything (which is ridiculous...my old company wired her house...I know she has a lan drop in her media room, lol). So she constantly pegs 1 and 11 in 2.4 GHz. So I use 6 on that side of the house. But I can see at least 4 other APs from my neighbors on 6, and that's just those that broadcast. Our phones are are the only two AC devices we currently have.
It would probably be OK on AC. I have one AC AP and my family room cabinets where my equipment is in is only about 20 feet from the AP through wood cabinet doors. But add in a cheapo GigE port and there is nothing to worry about at all. Again, its a stationary device, no reason to use wifi. I think the issue is that these devices are developed by people who live in rented apartments or in parts of the world where adding a lan drop in a home is cost prohibitive (concrete walls, etc.). It never occurs to them that a huge portion of their target audience has a wired lan in their home.

I would not be supprised, WWE app has been on Fire TV for a while. It should not take much, if any, reconfiguring to add it to the play store for the player.

Just heard about this. Interesting indeed. I am in the UK and have got an Amazon Fire TV on preorder (released 23rd Oct) not sure whether to ditch that pre-order and go for this or keep the AFTV.

No ethernet is a bummer, but I'm still looking forward to it
need to find the perfect Plex box

I'm going to be pre-ordering one tomorrow as soon as they become available for pre-order... If I'm still awake by midnight, might do it then.
The lack of Ethernet port is truly a bummer, but I guess I will try to get another device off my Wi-Fi lol
