[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
like you said - it holds the phone in portrait mode and it's not what we're looking for...there is a million docks just like this one out there, including official accessory from Samsung, posted on samsungusa website. This doesn't really help....

The links I posted in the OP are for the type of dock we're searching for.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
This dock for original Note 1 can be used in both, portrait and landscape mode. This Indian eBay seller insists it fits both Note 1 & 2....Thoughts?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ingrown:
I have one, and when you plug it in the Note 2 recognizes that it's plugged into a dock, but it's loose. This phone is skinnier than the original note, so you have to be careful inserting it and i don't think it would lie on its side well. Maybe it would fit if you had a relatively thin case on your phone.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
bump....has anyone seen any new aftermarket landscape charging docks out there yet?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
I want one also. Don't like the portrait kind.

I've had landscape docks before for other phones but this is harder to find.

I don't think there are any yet for the Note II. I just looked overseas.

I can have one made but I'd have to explore how expensive it is.

I've been eyeing this one for my PC replacement setup: http://www.amazon.com/GOgroove-Sona...54979999&sr=8-2&keywords=tablet+charging+dock
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
argh...that's like a home entertainment system with surround sound. we just want a compact, portable dock, which can be plugged in via USB or AC, nothing else
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
I run DBA Cases.

I have people looking into it. If I can get them and carry them I will since I want one also ;)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
Here is a UK seller, which claims this dock is compatible with Note 2: http://www.amazon.co.uk/KitSound-Galaxy-Charging-Compatible-Samsung/dp/B008GJT6ZM

It also has a recent review from a guy, who mentions using it with Note 2. Any takers?

Landscape Dock

Right now all there are is portrait docks.

I can get a Landscape dock made but it's very expensive to make. I don't know what the demand will be.

Would people rather have a landscape dock?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] reinbeau:
Absolutely we want a landscape dock, that's what this thread is about :)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] JLneonhug:
Found same one on eBay for £10 posted. Tempted as I'm sure if it's not a straight fit you can use thin foam strips for adjustment. Still waiting something slightly more suitable for in car use.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] davenash:
Can you provide the link to eBay please? :)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
It's very expensive to create a Landscape Dock.

I would need to know there was more demand than just the few of us on the thread.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] reinbeau:
There is demand. No one knows there's anything even on the horizon that is a true landscape desk/charging dock. How will you know unless you make it known?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
That's true.

I won't be able to decide until January.

Too many things going on right now.

I want one also.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
+1...listen to the lady! You can figure out what the demand will be based on similar docks for other galaxy phones, such as sgs2 and sgs3. AFAIK they sell really well. I'm baffled why Samsung hasnt made one, and I think the aftermarket accessory manufacturer who start selling these first will make a lot of money, before others establish production line to catch up.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
that auction says "This seller does not ship to United States"
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] JLneonhug:
Ah, apologies, thought you were from UK. I just saw Amazon.co.uk, and assumed :rolleyes:.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
Let me see if I can carry them.

That would solve the problem - right?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] speculatrix:
I think a key feature to popularity is to have a mount which has sufficient adjustment to allow the Note2 to remain in a gel case, which seems to be quite a popular way of protecting it. I have a gel case with a kick stand and it works mostly OK.

Now, I know this dock isn't landscape, but it shows how such a thing is possible:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/170835616169?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

(there doesn't appear to be a Note2 version of the above).

There are quite a few car mounts which are non-charging for the Note2, so I don't see why they can't add on a microusb socket, e.g. one of these:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261115632094?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

of course, integrating an inductive charging pad would be really cool, and then use bluetooth A2DP to car radio, would be best of all. If the Note2 had inductive charging. And if my car had bluetooth A2DP in its radio. And if I used my car every day ;)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] reinbeau:
For desktop use I don't care about keeping it in a case. I just want to be able to charge and use it in landscape.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
I have my doubts this dock is a good fit for Note 2, especially in landscape mode. If you look at the technical specs and cover pictures it clearly states it was designed for Note 1 only. I think some people just tried it with Note 2 and it kinda works. I think it probably works in portrait mode with Note 2 a lot better than landscape, because in portrait mode a tight grip on phone body is not required - micro USB plug stabilizes the phone.

I think it would be a gamble for you to invest in that dock for Note 2, unless you plan on selling it as a dock for Note 1 and just wanna try yourself how good it fits Note 2.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] reinbeau:
I want the sideways L shaped doc just like my Captivate dock. Simple, slide it in on its side, and the dock app starts up. I don't want something jury rigged that sorta works....
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jnmigr:
http://www.motorola.com/us/consumers/Motorola-Flip-Stand/m-Flip-Stand,en_US,pd.html

That work for people that want a landscape dock.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] reinbeau:
That isn't a dock, it's a stand. This is a dock. It holds the phone in landscape orientation and charges it.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Menchelke:
I might make one, but I might just buy that one from the other thread.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
Bump! come on people, it's been another month - has anyone seen a dock we're looking for? given how long the phone's been out kinda hard to believe no one has made one...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
I want one also but it's too expensive to make.

Landscape Dock

I finally broke down and bought the above mentioned dock, and yes it most certainly is for the original Note. But, to my surprise, it actually works pretty well with my Note 2. I have the Samsung Flip Cover on mine, and that actually might help somewhat, particularly in landscape mode. I have turned the dock on it's left side and that then puts the cover on the table, so may actually lend a little bit of support. Yes, it is slightly loose in the dock whether in portrait or landscape mode, but the Samsung Note 2/SII/SIII portrait dock didn't hold the Note 2 any better either, and was a pain in the butt to unplug it, plus of course, being as anal as the rest of you.....I HAD to have in landsacpe!

Anyway, since it doesn't appear that anyone is going to make an actual landscape dock for our monster, I can certainly recommend this dock to serve the purpose we are all trying to find. I bought it off of Amazon, used, for $34.32. At least now I think I will stop doing my daily searching for a dock! :laugh:
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
Can you remove the flip cover, and post some comments how this dock holds the phone without it?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] imsiin:

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
Doesn't charge laying down.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] KEYofR:
If the phone is only slightly too skinny for a note 1 dock, then maybe all you need to do is get some invisishield material, just get any screen protector or invisible case from Zagg for any device, maybe you can even find one cheap at a store for an old device no longer sold. Cut two strips from it to make like two lengths of tape. Place those on the inside two long edges. You could use any kind of tape just to test but the screen protector material should be durable and clean and not scuff up the phone. Maybe more than one layer.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mcshadows77:
it looks good :)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Achayan:
any updates on the horizontal dock ? did you find anything ?:confused:
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
no, and it's pissing me off. cannot believe Samsung is that ignorant and ignores such an obvious gap in accessory in high demand. i've spent countless hours searching the internet over the past few months and it's even harder to believe there are no 3rd party landscape docks either for this very popular phone
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Achayan:
Hi. I think I found something , it works for the s3 as per cutomer review, have to check if it will take the note 2 and the product review says that it does.

Check this out on amazon : iBolt Streamer XL MHL & Charging Dock

http://www.amazon.com/iBolt-Streamer-MHL-Charging-Dock/dp/B0094M3DZY

Product Features

Turn any TV with HDMI input into an internet hub!

Works with HTC phones & Galaxy S2, S3, S4 & Note I & 2.

PC/MAC sync option - use as desktop Dock

Complete kit with wall charger & HDMI cable

Use Bluetooth keyboard for wireless control

-------------------------------------

or another type on http://shop.htcpedia.com/ibolt-mhl-dock-with-cable-and-charger.html not sure if this works or not

maybe i am on to something : )
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
that is a really nice product and you're right - you might be on to something here. I do have a couple of concerns:

1. Even though it does say "Note 1 & 2" under Technical Details section - there is a full list of supported phones under Product Description section and Note phones are not there

2. If you look at the 3rd picture from the top you will see how short the micro USB charging cable, that is coming out of the dock body is. Now, micro USB plug on the Note phones is located at the bottom, not the side like other galaxy phones, including the one in the picture amd I'm concerned that charging cable may not reach the micro USB plug on the Note because it seems too short.

I'm gonna shoot an email to the seller, asking about those things and to confirm if this dock can charge Note 2. If he says Yes i'll probably get it and will post the feedback here.

Too be honest though, this is taking too damn long and Note 3 will be released in September with sick specs, so I might switch. Not sure it's worth getting accessories for 4 months only.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Achayan:
I bought it from ibolt. It needs the 5 pin to 11 pin converter ( EPL-FU10BE adapter ) for it to work . The note 2 is slightly longer so it sticks out at the corner . Waiting for the converter. I will post some pics as soon as I get it . At the moment it only charges the phone . Neither the USB nor the HDMI work :(
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
Thanks for the feedback. For me both of these things are deal breakers. Moving on with the search. If anyone finds a landscape dock, which truly fits Note 2 and doesnt require any extra accessories to work - please post here
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] dragonfly14:
honnestly i gave up and just bought a landscape flip cover stand and just plug in the cable.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Achayan:
I bought the Motorola stand and it's beautiful . I use it without the flip stand and it sits well with the stock cover and also with the Zerolemon battery in Portrait as well as Horizontal mode. I also tested it with a Flap cover and sits nicely. The USB cable from Motorola that came with it does not work on the Note 2 for some reason ( 5 pin to 11 pin problem or some other proprietary setting , I have no clue ..does anyone know why ? ) .I just connect my regular charger or the MHL link cable and it does the job

The link is http://www.motorola.com/us/consumers/Motorola-Flip-Stand/m-Flip-Stand,en_US,pd.html .

I am still waiting for the other cable .Will post pics as soon as I get it .
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] MikaelPe:
Achayan, I am from iBOLT and if you bought our MHL product all you have to do is to send an email to support@ibolt.co (include a receipt) and refer to this post and we'll send you the new 11-pin to 5-pin adapter that is now included when you buy the MHL product. Send attention to "Braden" and I'll make sure it goes out. Just give it a fair product review/rating on Amazon if it works well... I just played a Netflix movie last night myself with this using my new Galaxy S4 and it works very well. A really cheap way of turning any flat screen TV into an internet/Netflix portal:)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Achayan:
Thanks Mikael for the quick reply and support . I had spoken with Kim of iBolt last week and she said she would be mailing it to me , but havent got it yet . I will mail Braden then .

Product review will always be unbiased. :cowboy:

Guys, can we please keep this on topic? If you want to discuss iBolt products and reviews, or post pictures of different accessories you buy - please create a separate thread for those things. This one is dedicated to a search of Note 2 landscape charging dock...You're welcome to post links for any products, which you think might fit the bill.

Ok , will start a new thread
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Sobakel:
Sorry boss, I will work harder and do better for you.

; Why do you need it to be landscape anyway?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
There is a bunch of people, who are looking for such product, judging from this thread and other forums, not just me...It's available for most other phones for a reason. For me personally I want it because my primary use of the phone during the day is multimedia (videos, tv shows, etc') playback and live TV streaming through my slingbox to phone. 95% of that content is in wide screen 16:9 or similar format, so playback in landscape mode offers *much* bigger picture size. And video playback is also very power hungry operation - HD content drains battery pretty fast, so the phone better be charging while I'm doing that.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
Does it really matter? We all want a landscape dock for a plethora, no, I a veritable cornucopia of reasons.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Sobakel:

I'm also looking for a landscape dock and it is ridiculously difficult to find one, do you have any news about it?

I think I'm just going to give up or build something myself...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
No and I've pretty much stopped looking. Moving to Note 3 when its out in October, so doesnt make sense to buy new accessories for 1.5 months. Pretty lame on Samsung's part not to create such a basic and widely requested accessory.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Apo11on:
you know, to be honest, posts like this make me really wish XDA forums had a feature to vote down someone's rep by reducing a number of Thanks, instead of increasing it....other than the facts there are links with two clear pictures in the OP, and questions like that have been answered in this thread at least 10 times, let me answer your question with another question:

Given the fact, that Note 2 has been out for a year now, and the charging dock you linked is no different from the stock one, which was available at launch, and the fact there are thousands of 3rd party vendors, who released similar portrait charging docks right after devices' launch - what possible explanation do you have for people in this thread still asking for one, if that was what we're looking for?:confused:
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Hälftebyte:
Guess I've never seen the stock one.

Let's hope they add the vote down feature then.. :good: maybe that will make you feel better about yourself

First, I've had my note 2 for less than a month.

Second, this http://m.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EDD-S20JWEGSTA is what I thought was the stock dock and it doesn't look landscape to me. From your response I guess I'm wrong. Next time I'll make sure not to respond to your requests

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thank Me Later:
My friend is thinking of getting the Nexus 4. Unfortunately T-Mobile pretty much is non-existing where he lives and he really wants the Nexus 4 so is looking to get the unlocked Nexus 4 and going to at&t. He wants to know if he'll get at&t's service fully, he is skeptical because it's a phone unlocked like maybe it's not fully compatible with the bands and frequencies on at&t? I have little knowledge on unlocked phones being used on the U.S. carriers so any help will do.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geo411m:
Yes it is.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalvarez0312:
Yes it is compatible to use its hspa+ bands however it will not be able to use LTE, one of the best features at&t has to offer. In other words, download speeds will vary from 1-5mbps instead of say 10-40 Mbps.

Edit: I own an HTC one xl and have att as my provider, lte is a big issue for me and one of the factors I'm currently weighing heavily as I consider buying the nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thank Me Later:
Thank you guys for the responses :)

I already know it won't have LTE. Maybe that's a good thing since the back is non-removable. Better battery life hopefully.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcbboy:
you will get HSPA+ 21 on ATT since they don't offer 42.

I would greatly like to see a YouTube channel where someone reviews all the rezound roms, and possibly some apps/themes/mods. This would be well received by the community, as people frequently ask for the "best" Rom. If no one else does this, I'm almost tempted to do it myself!
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Thing is though, the rezound community is dying.

This would have been a great thing 3 months ago, but I am not sure if there is enough of a demand for this.

But, prove me wrong. If people want it, I'd certainly volunteer.

[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
I just replaced my touch screen/housing (again) and upon booting the phone up and attempting to answer a text message, I find that there seems to be a strip of my digitizer that is dead. Beginning from the height of the QWERTYUIOP line and up about 1/4" is unresponsive to touch. If I scroll horizontally or try to press in that space, I get nothing. Vertical scrolling will stop in that area and resume once I go past the dead space. I even turned on "show touches" in the dev menu and no touches are registered the space while on the lockscreen or any other part of the ROM.

I applied a ZAGG Invisible Shield screen protector prior to installing the digitizer but I see no reason why that would adversely affect the digitizer.

What are the chances that I received a DOA digitizer? I'm guessing 100% but any input will be greatly appreciated.
[LG Nitro HD] devcon69:
Why did you replaced your digitizer sir? Does it have the same issue? Try to remove the screen protector, and clean the screen for moisture or dust. And try to recalibrate it. And is the replacement digitizer genuine? If none of these work, then maybe you really bought a DOA digitizer. Hope that has warranty. Good day.
[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
I replaced it because I cracked the other one. The cracked digitizer worked perfectly, it was just cracked.

I even took it back apart after installing the new one and made certain the flex cable was connected properly. I assume it isn't oem as I bought it from an eBay dealer. Don't know where I'd find an oem digitizer. I've already contacted the seller and they said to send it back and a replacement part or refund would be issued pending their confirmation that the problem exists. I just wanted to get a second opinion on whether it was doa or if there was something I missed. Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] th35at4n1c:
So the last couple of weeks it seems my player 5.0 is really picky on what kind of charger will charge it. At first all worked and then no wall charger would work only through USB. Then only a few cords I could barrow from friends now none at all but once in a blue moon. It will not even attempt to charge on 99% of cords. I have recently found out if my device is completely dead I can plug it in and it will do nothing but reboot till it completly dies. If I let it completely die and not unplug the cord it will charge and reboot 100% after a hour or two and be fine again but does n longer charge unless its own ignorant demand. I haven't tried switching roms cause I'm quite content with my current one and has no other problems software visible so I was curious on if it was hardware instead any ideas guys?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Dr. Cyanide:
I've seen mixed results trying to charge with cables other than the one that came with the player. Sometimes they work fine, other times they work for a while then wont charge it. Most of the time, data transfer works fine. Might be some weird voltage issue or something with the hardware, but I saw issues with the Stock setup.
