I was looking at that one but from the pic's it doesn't look like the vertical support is very tall. i was wondering how well it supports the back of the phone

I never had a problem with support. Between the usb connector going into the bottom and the back lip the phone is pretty sturdy when docked.

SEARCH is your friend. Several threads about this.
I'm using that one found on Ebay : Sinjimoru stand Dock Station. It fit my previous Galaxy S3 and now I'm using it with the N4
infuse 4g desktop dock
the infuse 4g desktop dock fits it perfectly to the T. the only bad thing is that it fits it so well, that you can't have any case with it when you dock the nexus 4 onto it. anyway, lemme know if you want one, i have an extra one that i have no use for. just pm if interested. from boston btw
Some Galaxy S3 docks can fit the Nexus 4 and work fine.
I found this one, it looks really nice, but they don't ship to the US

The infuse dock... Is it hard to get the N4 in and out? Do you think or would scrape up the sides of the phone?

That looks slick as well! And looks like you can use it with a case on as well. Good find!

Just got mine today. Wont work with the diztronic tpu case
I'm currently using this one
http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=261142893578#ht_4554wt_1139
Fits even with my nillkin case on
Looks like the same dock. Mine fits. Sits on the dock, but the prong needs to be just a bit longer as it wont charge.
Any charging docks that work with the Diztronic TPU case?

I just got this dock for around $12, it fits just fine w/the poetic bumper on it...it doesn't have the spare battery charger, but with the n4 its a moot point
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A8W68BK/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
its a knock off of the offical samsung one thats $32
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...620327&sr=8-1&keywords=samsung+galaxy+s3+dock
also there are a couple chinese sites like aliexpress that have the same charger i bought for around the same price, but the one i got ships from New Jersey so it took less than a week to get to my house instead of the international shipping...so far ive just used it for charging, i am not sure if it does anything more, but thats exactly what I wanted it for.
here are a couple aliexpress listings for it..you may find a better price, i just searched for "samsung galaxy s3 dock"

I love my infuse 4g dock. The nexus 4 is a bit loose when its in the dock. I used a few pieces of electrical tape on the inside of the dock where the phone slides in the dock. It made it fit pretty nice a tight and u can't really see the tape. The dock was 13 on amazon.

UNBOX: Nexus 4 Wireless Charging Orb (With pictures)

Just received the Nexus 4 Wireless Charging Orb.
Here are some pics.
works perfectly with the bumper. dont know if it will work with other cases if the phone could not touch the orb directly..
Try slightly lifting it up off the orb. It seems to continue to charge up to about 1/4" away - and this is through a case too.

How's it going to magnetize to the orb if a case is on the back?

I don't know but it stays perfectly on there with no slippage. I think the sticky rubber ring keeps it on there better than any magnetizing factor it has.

Awesome. Just seen the video posted in another thread. I'm amazed. Mine will be here Monday.

It looks awesome. Looks great with the N4.
BTW, is that the official N4 bumper or is that a case? It looks nice.

S4 charging dock that can be used with Spigen Neo Hybrid

Hi all,
Anyone know of a charging dock for the S4 that can be used whilst the phone is inside a Spigen Neo Hybrid case??
Thought I'd ask as a lot of people here have the case so there's a high chance of someone using it with a dock too
I ordered the one off Samsung website for half off. Also have th neo hybrid will let you know how it works out when I get the dock

I also ordered this as I note the Neo Hybrid case refuses to work with many micro usb cables. (Works with nexus 4 stock cable, nexus 7 stock cable, samsung cable obviously). Did not work on my portable charger (anker slim2).
I'm hoping it works through the wireless charger which I'm sure it will since my Nexus 4 works fine through a tpu and pc case
These wireless ones are nice and they look good too lol... If there is no sensibly priced dock then I might wait and get the charging pad when the price comes down a bit

I have that same dock . Any luck finding a case that works?
Well. I think I could have made it work BUT the piece that usb connector is in isnt very strong. I went to put the phone in it and it broke and fell into the housing.
Knowing this now, If the front lip of 5he charger was removed it would fit.
Like I said tho, the flip up usb connector isnt strong at all. Its not like I forced it in.
Needless to say, its being sent out today.

Sorry to bring this off topic but my question is regarding the S4 with the AnkerSlim 2 battery pack.
I'm thinking about getting the Anker Slim 2 as an external battery. Do you think I could mod the micro USB with an exacto knife to fit into the Neo Hybrid case (like the one I did to in the picture)?
Trying to decide between the Anker Slim2 as an external battery pack and extra batteries to swap out. I'm pretty content with the Neo Hybrid case so will be leaving that on.

Any updates to which, if any, docks work with the neo hybrid?
I just ordered the KiDiGi from amazon. I'll see how it performs with the Spiegen Neo.
base received. the phone in the hybrid neo case does fit, however the micro usb plug in the base is not long enough. the phone does not charge.
To reiterate, KiDiGi Cover mate cradle charging and sync does not work with Spiegen Neo Hybrid case.

Battery Door Mod for Replacing batteries.

I'm attempting a battery door mod on the original case that will allow me to change out the battery whenever i want with a charged one.
I have filed out enough space to remove the battery from the case while the case is still on. There will be a little piece of ribbon at the right that will life the battery out.
The NFC and qi chips will be attached to a piece of plastic with Velcro on it so that when when you pull it from the case the NFC and qi chip will be attached to that piece of plastic and will allow me to remove the battery.
I am planning on finishing the case and the battery door in leather.
One thing I'm having trouble working out is how I would be able to charge the nexus 4 battery without it being inside the phone. Any help on this would be appreciated.
Cheers
Steven

That looks really cool but I'm not sure if it would work. The nexus 4 battery has a rather strange connector on it. See pic.

Hmm. Yeah I guess I never saw the Nexus 4 battery out of the phone to see if it had the same gold connectors. It looks like these people have a way, but it doesn't seem very convenient.

Ok so I've mocked up a prototype. The concept works just need to get it looking a little better with the help of either some cut sign vinyl or leather glued to it. Have a look and tell me what you think
PS. I put a little piece of leather under the NFC chip to raise it slightly to make the connection with the added height. Works great!

Just had a though. A clip on case on the back might do the trick to hide some of the rough bits lol.
