Can the tab be docked with the scosche leather case? I noticed that the tab comes apart, one piece as a holder and the other is the base. I was thinking it would fit in the base part with the connector so I dont have to remove it out of the scosche case. Can anyone confirm this might work before I buy this?
No.
The case covers the back of the tab and the dock has a pretty tight fit that only allows the tab and an invisible shield protector.
Still a great case though and easy enough to remove from case and dock.
I have the HDMI docking station and it has a removable sleeve so that the extended battery or a case can be on the phone while docking. Does the standard case have the same capabilty?
I have a cheap ebay TPU case and it fits perfectly in there with the sleeve removed.
Not sure if you meant standard case or standard dock, but yes, the standard dock does have the removable insert for working with a case on the phone. Now all we need is a decent hard case that will actually fit in the docks... I'm not a huge fan of the silicone cases and I didn't have much luck with the incipio or the shell/holster fitting the car dock I'm sure they'll be coming soon enough.

I hate silicon cases also, have you ever tried TPU? Verizon sells one that they call High Gloss Silicon but it is a very firm molded case and nothing like silicon.

It is fit but no connection to charge the phone. I have tried TPU case in car dock and standard dock but both have problems with connection.
I have the shell/holster and I can get it to charge in the standard dock but the dock app will not launch. I usually just pop the shell off and let it charge that way at night. I do have the extended battery but the shell already accommodates that so it doesn't make a difference for the dock.
Side note: The audio output of the standard dock seems to work through the USB of the Bionic, it's not as loud as the headphone jack tho.

I have the shell/holster case also and it does fit and the dock apps do launch. There is a plastic filler that has to be removed in order to make the proper connection. This is a much better design from Moto than on the DX.

Hey guys,
Currently I have a cheap TPU case that I got from ebay but the phone doesn't fit on the car dock.
I'm looking for a thin case that I can leave on the phone while still being able to use with the car dock. Does anyone know if one exists or if the official samsung protective cover is compatible with the car dock?
Thanks
*edit*
Will this one work?

I am interested in buying the Smart Dock for the Note 2, but I cannot go without a case as I have already had to replace the phone once. I am currently using the Seidio Active case and was wondering if it would still fit in the dock? I have heard that Samsung has left some wiggle room for cases in reviews, but will it be enough to accommodate the kickstand as well?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Jared
Bump?

My guess from seeing other docks/chargers you need a slimmer case, like Surface or any TPU cases. Active might be too tight, but I don't know for sure.
I just received my smart dock 2 days ago and I also use the Active case, it does not fit properly. You have to press down the phone to fully sit in the USB prong and it connects fine but as soon as you go, the spring loaded usb prong and the rubber on the case pulls it back out. When I want to dock, I just partially remove the bottom part of the case or remove it completely.
I have a thin Spigen case on my Nexus and was wondering if any of you would know if a portable Qi charger would work if I put it in my pocket with my phone? Do any of you have any recommendations for batteries?
qi stone+. if you look in the accessory sub forum you will find many posts on this.
i use the qi stone in a front pocket on a phone case. i slip the phone in the case and the outer pouch has the stone in it and it charges as if it wa a charging sleeve. works well when i need it to.
but the qi stone+ is good on its own. you can power it and it has a usb port to power other gear.
