I was wondering this as well since I will likely be ordering the same case.

I also found an un-branded version on Amazon that I will likely order instead of ebay. Only $11.95

I would post a link...but I am too much of a n00b to do that! :o

Zenis dock & Samsung TPU Case

Hi guys!

I'd like to share with U some pictures with my S3 and clear TPU from Samsung Mobile (Anymode from Korea).

Now I'm waiting for a "non genuine" usb cable (I needed a longer one, so ordered again on ebay) and will see if this dock will charge properly ;)

One more thing friends. It seems that finally we have our own charger dock! :D Even with an audio (jack). I'm thinking to order one as my second stand charger (link to ebay):

http://infobot.pl/r/2684

What is Your opinion? :)

Cheers!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] pyro224:
This dock looks to fit well with the TPU case. Do you find any problems docking or undocking?

thanks!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] [BartSim]:
Not really. It fits a bit tight and first You have to learn how to dock properly - from back to front (I tried that just a few times and works well), but it is just my personal opinion ;)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ferris2375:
Ordered, thanks for the heads up
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Nejkoy:
Does anyone know if it fits ok with official flip cover?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] z0phi3l:
I have the unbranded one and a Diztronic TPU case, fits perfectly fine with it on, and to me it actually is easier to get lined up than no case and the rubber adapter, which is nice for me
[Galaxy S III Accessories] htcsnap93:
Does this dock let the s3 go into dock mode?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gatebil:
No, but you can use the app Tasker for that.

What about one of these? http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/philips-fidelio-as111-android-docking-system-black-11559055-pdt.html

Dont think theres a pass through for connecting to pc or anything, but mighty useful for the bedroom.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Lurntospel:
Would I have to remove my case on my phone in order to dock it? Or is there enough room on there to fit a case as well.

Like the Dock, but left field question, on that S3 i can see there are no blck borders top and bottom with the camera app running?

Whereas on my S3 i only get that if I have it in video mode? am i missing something?

Anyone know if the s3 will fit in this dock with a SGP Neo Hybrid case?

I wasn't impressed with this dock after all. Just not a good fit and so it just feels very unstable. Did a small write up over here:

I have the Zenis cover and it WILL NOT fit my S3 with my Incipio Faxion cover (granted, it is a thick cover, but I love it anyway).

I gave it to my wife who has an S2 with a generic rubber cover and it fits perfectly.

Does anybody know if my Faxion will fit the S2B Corporation universal cover (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1785117)?

Not only do you need to enable them in settings, you must select them when you are ready to use them. When you want to type something, long press on the input box and a pop-up will come up with a choice 'input method'. Choose that and you will be given a list of choices you enabled in settings. Choose the one you want to use. It stays selected til you change it again in the future.

[Hardware Hacking General] ehpaul:
I am attempting to connect to a serial device from a Android tablet, via

USB-Serial Converter. In order to interface with this particular serial

device, a linux library must be used as an interface.

This library takes an integer as an argument, and tries to connect to the

device at the following location : /dev/ttySx, where x is the arguement. If

2 is provided to the library, it will look for the device at /dev/ttyS2.

Very simple.

When I connect the device to Ubuntu, there's is one simple extra step for

this device to work with the USB-Serial convert. The converter is exposed

at the location /dev/ttyUSB1. I just need to create a simple soft-link with

the serial port pattern (etc "ln -s /dev/ttyUSV1 /dev/ttyS99"). It works

perfectly.

Now the problem arises for Android. The converter is seen at

/dev/bus/usb/01/01. I never seen this convention in other project. The

question is how can I direct the I/O from /dev/ttySX to /dev/bus/usb/01/01
[Hardware Hacking General] pankaj013:
Which android device are you using and with which kernel and android build? In my case I am using kernel 3.0.+ with CM9 on a Kindle Fire and I do see the /dev/ttyUSBx getting created along with the /dev/bus/01/01. It has been a month since I tried it but I was able to see the problem you see and here is what I remember. When you plug the serial convertor both /dev get created but since the Android USB support only uses /dev/bus/usb/01/01, the kernel in order to save power "unmounts" the unused /dev/ttyUSBx after a certain time period. You can try using dmesg to see if that is happening in your case also. There is a kernel build flag that tells the kernel not to "unmount" it but I dont remember it off-hand. Best would be to use the Android USB support to talk to your device instead of the linux library if you can.

--------Update after testing it out again and checking dmesg etc---------------------------

When I plug the FTDI cable this is what shows up in dmesg:

<6>usb 1-1: new full speed USB device number 8 using musb-hdrc

<3>usb 1-1: device v0403 p6001 is not supported

<6>ftdi_sio 1-1:1.0: FTDI USB Serial Device converter detected

<6>usb 1-1: Detected FT232RL

<6>usb 1-1: Number of endpoints 2

<6>usb 1-1: Endpoint 1 MaxPacketSize 64

<6>usb 1-1: Endpoint 2 MaxPacketSize 64

<6>usb 1-1: Setting MaxPacketSize 64

<6>usb 1-1: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0

At this point if I check the filesystem I see both /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/bus/usb/001/0xx [ xx being the current device number ]

I can work with /dev/ttyUSB0 and all is well. Now as soon as I invoke any app that uses Android USB Host Mode API to connect

to USB (for enumeration, connection or whatever) the /dev/ttyUSB0 gets disconnected with following message from dmesg:

<6>ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0

<6>ftdi_sio 1-1:1.0: device disconnected

At this point /dev/bus/usb/001/0xx is still alive and if I enumerate the USB devices using android API I see the same as the adaptor

name. So looks like till the Android USB API takes over the FTDI is available as /dev/ttyUSB0 but not afterwards.

------------------------Update ends--------------------------------
[Hardware Hacking General] g1009:
(a) If you see a /dev/ttyUSB1 device node created, then you can try the following in an Android terminal:

stty -F /dev/ttyUSB1 raw
cat /dev/ttyUSB1

If this shows data from your device, then you can use directly the device node to read()/write(), POSIX-style, without needing any library.

(b) If you cannot see a /dev/ttyUSB1 in your Android device, this means that you need to load the ftdi_sio kernel module (check android.serverbox.ch/?p=285 for instructions).
[Hardware Hacking General] E:V:A:
Let me link that for you:

"How to enable FTDI Support for your USB Host featuring Honeycomb Tablet (including sample native application)"

Also have a look at FTDI's Android Paper:

"White Paper: Connecting Peripherals to an Android Platform"

and this relevant blog, from this XDA thread.

[Hardware Hacking General] mahesh2000:
change /system/etc/permissions

this is from a question on stackoverflow titled "Android USB host and hidden devices" (sorry, i can't add external URLs yet). it worked like a charm on a micromax A120 canvas 2 phone (kitkat 4.4.2). now i can control my Arduino! i used busybox tools to do all the command line work (otherwise chmod wouldn't work). my steps (perhaps some were not required):

(0) install PDAnet drivers on my Windows 8 computer.

(1) root the phone using Vroot (now called iRoot). Very simple, only catch is that the su grant/deny page is partly in chinese, no big deal.

(2) install busybox and jackpal's Android-Terminal-Emulator available on github and the google play store (free).

(3) open a terminal window and become the superuser:

# su

(4) the file system may be read-only, so you might have to remount it:

# mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /

or

# mount -o rw,remount -t rootfs /

or

# mount -o rw,remount -t rootfs rootfs /system

(5) make default.prop read/write:

chmod 666 /default.prop

(6) edit /default.prop, make the following changes:

ro.secure=0

ro.debuggable=1

persist.service.adb.enable=1

... And this is the real meat of it:

(7) To enable USB host API support you should add a file named

android.hardware.usb.host.xml and containing the following lines:

<permissions>

<feature name="android.hardware.usb.host"/>

</permissions>

into folder

/system/etc/permissions

in that folder find file named

handheld_core_hardware.xml or tablet_core_hardware.xml

and add

<feature name="android.hardware.usb.host" />

into <permissions> section.

(8) Reboot your device. Usb host api should work.

Is it ok to flash a different boot.img from another kernel. Let's say im running sebastian, is it ok to flash boot.img from faux? My wifi is still not turning on and im really desperate.

Yes, but typically the kernels will unpack the boot.img and repack it with their kernel while keeping the ramdisk intact. They will also flash their own matching drivers so as not to break wifi/BT.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r_southampton:
Hello,

now that the UK update is out, I'm wondering whether to let my locked/unrooted arc update via Sony?

Am I going to see much worse performance compared to the custom versions available here?

What happens with the 3 hardware keys on the Arc with ICS?

Are there any real gains compared to Gingerbread?

I've got three options I think:

1) go with a modded gingerbread - maybe arconium

2) stock ICS automatic update

3) modified ICS.

I don't really like tweaking my phone. If I update it, it will be months (if ever) before I update it again, so I want to be reasonably sure that all the major aspects will function - which is what's drawing me to the automatic sony update.

Thanks for any comments.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WildMoves:
Not "much worse", but it's slightly slower than GB Roms. IMO, it's still more than fast enough to be usable as a daily driver.

They do pretty much the same thing. There are no on-screen keys, unlike the Galaxy Nexus.

Check this video. There are some additional features not shown in it, such as:

- Integrated data monitor;

- Slightly better camera quality (but slightly worse video recording quality);

- Face unlock;

- Some improved Google apps, in both usability and looks (namely Gmail and Maps);

- The ability to freeze apps (useful if you have an annoying app that likes to consume the battery but you don't want to uninstall);

- Some apps only work on ICS (although there's still very few of them);

- And more...

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Marco Chung:
1.Cm9 currently only have mclaw's kernel.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulen:
yesterday, I pluged in my charger and started browsing.

at one moment phone freezed, purple led flashed and phone rebooted

after that a lot of apps I had installed are missing. among them are gmail, google search widget, play store, titanium backup, some office from market (can't remember which) ...

and one widget I use can't be loaded on startup but if I remove it and add again it works.

I tried all I can think off except factory reset.

I tried deleting cache, dalvik cache, switched app2sd off (which were on, although I remember leaving it off), fixed permissions from recovery ...

I even reinstalled kernel and ROM and gapps, but no change at all which is really strange.

I use MiniCM7-2.2.0 ROM and 2.6.29.6-nAa-11 kernel

SD card is working, I can browse files and swap is working.

It also seems that rebooting doesn't work well. Sometimes, I choose reboot but it doesn't boot up until I pull out battery and press power button.

I'm not sure if this is connected because I didn't reboot much phone with this kernel and ROM

Any ideas before I wipe data?

thank you for fast replies

I also guess it has something to do with app2SD

when I installed ROM I wanted to use Link2SD but it couldn't work because of build in App2SD.

I tried that App2SD but I couldn't control which apps to move, I even didn't exactly understood how it works, so I gave up of it.

Everything worked until yesterday.

and I only browsed internet when this happened. what could go wrong?

Is there a way to fix this before I wipe the whole thing?
