Please let us know if the 360 has an IR port slot.

Estimated delivery date of December 13th. Wish they hadn't shipped it USPS from CA as it takes forever to cross the country that way.

There is no IR port opening on the 360 either. It's the exact same case but the housing for the tab swivels around 360 degrees.
I've noticed that in order to enable wireless charging for the S4 you have to replace the back cover with the one in the kit, but then that means you can't use a case like the S-View etc as they also need their own back cover. Has there been any word on wireless charging enabled versions of the S-view or normal flip cover?
I'd like to know so for the S-View too. Thanks.
I know it makes your phone thicker, I'm not sure any cases will work with the back cover.
Is the wireless back cover even available to purchase yet? I want one ASAP. I read somewhere its release was pushed back...anybody know anything?

Get something like this
Wireless charging insert
Just match up the copper to the pins and and use copper tape. Any standard case will fit.
Do those wireless inserts really work?

As far as I know, the S View Cover has wireless charging built in

It does not. it has no induction coil, no power contacts.
Found one insert that will be shipping shortly to work with any Galaxy S4 back cover
(They have a Galaxy S III version as well if interested)
http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/wiqiqi-wireless-charger-kit-for-samsung-galaxy-s4-or-s3-ultra-thin-light
I will definitely be picking this up for the fact that it's not a mod but an official design for the S4 and you can use any back cover with it (avoiding the thicker official wireless charging back cover as well). :good:
That's awesome! I wanna get 1 as well while living outside US.
If only Samsung didn't offer awesome items then completely let us down everytime. Either way I need something QI soon to go with my Nexus QI charger.
Another sale point through Monster Watts

I would like to know, if those alternative qi receivers the NFC functionality

I can confirm it definitely does not. The S view case is really poor IMO, sent mine back for a refund straight away.
One other potential problem I've been thinking about, if you want wireless charging I'm presuming that you won't be able to put an extra case on your phone as that would act like a barrier? That's a shame.

I think the Qi charging works through a lot of cases.
I'm curious to hear if anyone gets an insert to work with the stock back cover. There seems to be much less space under the cover in comparison to the S3 so I'd be surprised if any of the inserts will be thin enough to fit.

Same question for those who have used them on note 2/s3 or have one on s4

Hmm...that's actually a good point. Maybe we can reach out to someone from the S III users to find out who used this one.

According to two reviews here, NFC does work: Link

I have a Samsung dock, model EDD-D200BEGSTA (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0089VO71U/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1).
Does anyone know of a non-flip style case that is slim enough to fit in the dock? There is room around the phone, but not a lot.

Haven't tried it.
Did a short Air Dock review - I got it for my GS5, but since Samsung is taking their sweet time releasing the wireless charging cover I had to test with the N7. Anyways, here it is for anyone interested:

Can you comment on how well it holds a phone while driving around? I would hate to take a turn and have it fly off out the window.

The magnets combined with the sticky surface of the charger makes it nearly impossible to fall off by accident. I think there is a better chance the entire mount will fall before the phone comes off due to a bump.

Can you make a video testing the GS5 even without the wireless back cover? Thanks.

The dock comes with a single magnetic sticker, so I will need to wait until the wireless cover is released so I can place it on that. I used the N7 because it already has magnets integrated.

Shouldn't it work without the magnets too ?
Isn't there a sticky front on the charger ?

Yes, sorry - I thought you wanted to see it with magnets in use.
Here's a quick video - the quality isnt so great as the car was moving, but I wanted to show how sturdy it is over bumps. This is using the sticky pad without magnets.

Awesome !
I am wondering how the charger performs when your phone is using bluetooth to stream music, GPS, WiFi, etc
Thanks for the video. I really appreciated.
after using the GS5 with just the sticky pad and no magnets, it's pretty clear that the magnets are required - it just doesn't hold that well after a few uses. They send a little magnet sticker that I put on the inside of the wireless charging cover (that I received today), and it works great.

Is the sticker big enough for two devices? (GS5 and Note 3)

Not sure I understand the question. Are you asking if you can split the sticker and use it on two devices? Then, no. If you're asking will the sticker fit either one device or the other? Then yes. I had to cut it to a smaller size to fit the inside cover of the GS5.

Can't do anything about the stock.. I got mine through their indiegogo campaign. I'm sure they will have more soon.
I've created a 3D printable dock for the Mi5 (with and without a case). You'd probably need to use the same cable the Mi5 shipped with for this design as it was made using its dimensions. Read the instructions and download the files from the link below:

You are welcome to make suggestions and I might consider adding it when I have time.
You know that only on one side (right) Xiaomi placed a speaker?
Maybe you just wanted it for design purposes, if so don't mind me.

Obviously, it's there mainly for design purposes but also to prevent muting the mic.
That is awesome
Hello i was wondering if you can create this dock again but with more room on the side and back maybe 0.5 cm each so we can dock with case? Thanks btw for your work

Sure, I'll make a second version this week Can you post a picture of your case so that I can get an idea of how thick it is? I'll try to make it universal
edit: I added a file to support a 1.5mm thick case, see if this works for you (e.g 2mm on all sides)
