Just recived the little gem in the mail yesterday took about a week for shipping from China to arrive. And so far I'm using with my otterbox symmetry case and it doesn't protrude the case and no more fumbling to get the charger in correctly. And it works great with fast charging and File transferring from pc
Will post more pictures later if anyone want to see any.

I'll order a few just for the heck of it and pass them out to some friends. I'll let you know of their feedback.
Thanks.
I bought something similar from Wish.com a year ago, it worked great but it eventually killed the charging circuit on my Galaxy Tab 3. I'm a little nervous about using electronics from discount websites from China.

I ordered mine from Amazon.
They might be originating in China though... but these days a lot of things are unfortunately.
I used one for a short time, didn't last long. The magnetic part didn't hold the best, although it held better than I thought it would to be honest but it still wasn't enough. The LED on it was extremely bright and bothered me at night. Also they're a pain to remove if you go to plug into a computer with a different cable or want to use the Gear VR.
In my opinion I'd be more interested in a case that converted our connectors to USB-C so you still get the ability to reverse the connections while at the same time is a good hold if it's slightly tugged.

I'm after a car phone holder with a USB connection built in. Has anyone come across one for a sensible price?
All I can find is the official HTC one which is over £50!! I've toyed with the idea of using a desk dock (£12), however I'm not sure whether this is a good plan as the phone's USB port will be put under some strain from the vibration of the vehicle which could lead to it being damaged.
EViS try ebay I got mine from there about a year or so ago, don't use it now (ebay that is )
I use this one in my car:
dealextreme.com/p/usb-ac-battery-charging-dock-cradle-for-htc-hd2-100-240v-44622
Works fine, connected both usb-connections to chargers... also charges extra battery.
Just attached with some welcro to the underside and the dash.....

Will that fit the TMOUS HD2?
I know a USB connection was required, but those are hard to find for a car cradle. I just got one of these for $7.50 on Amazon.

Card Cradle on Amazon
Works great. Sticks to my windshield and holds on. Pefect fit for my TMOUS HD2 in the holder with no lame thick padding. Camera functions also via an opening for it in the holder. Turns many ways for custom angles. I'm buying a second for my desk at work because I'm just that geeky.
Does that one shake while you driving?
I've got me self something like this but when i'm using it with eg. alaprecoreder app i cant get decent video....

It does just a little bit. I didn't think about that and video. I'll do a test video when I head out for lunch later.
*Edit*
I ran some video tests and was impressed with the results. If your car rides smooth, the holder should stay still. My truck does not ride smoothly but most of the time it worked and the video was very watchable. I only had issues with bumpy road spots, shifting, or when I got over 70 mph (112 kph). Not an issue with the holder, just my truck shaking some.
I hate dongles. There, I said it. I. Hate. Dongles.
With the OTG capabilities and the enormous (relatively) storage capability of SD cards these days, it seemed that using a dongle with the N7 was inevitable. So I took the plunge and got one. But what to do about strain relief and <sigh> that damned floppy dongle getting in my way all the time?
I added Velcro strips to the case and to the dongle in order to keep it in place and out of my way when I was using it. Two wide strips on the back of the case, and one on the front provide more than adequate anchoring so that the N7 can sit on my desk in landscape mode AND hold the dongle in place and out of the way without a problem. It also keeps the mini USB socket from sustaining any damage from the dongle flopping around.
Here's the photos of what I did and I'm very satisfied with the end result.

As long as it works for you admittedly otg cables and dongles are not very handy things, I'm sure someone could come up with an all in one solution that matches the base line of the tablet and looks like a short extension of it.
No luck yet but im hopeful
I have send email and a small drawing to a hand full of connector design companies . Asking them about a ribbon like micro usb connector something that would be very slim low profile.. IF i get someone willing to make them . i will start a thread asking for those wanting a low profile usb otg to buy into getting the minimum made. Its like to be about 300 connectors at 25 cents to 1.00 each... There is a unlimited use for such a plug for this and other devices ..
Just thought i would add it as i see the stressful post .. I have a similar thing for my nexus Its ugly tacky and i do not like it .
Nice pics thou
I did something similar to my Poetic case last night., I just used industrial strength velcro, and less of it. Here's a few pics. I'm at work, and in a low light environment, so the pictures aren't great...

Well here is the case I just picked up, I am sure a few of you are familiar with galaxynote2root.com YouTube videos. He reviewed these in a video sometime ago and after seeing them I was definitely interested to say the least. I ordered through their site CruzerLite.com on December 10th(monday night after business hours) and picked it up for $15.45 shipped. It arrived this afternoon the15th(Saturday), so the order had processed, shipped, and arrived within 5 days which is pretty good(considering standard USPS was involved as well lol ).
Here are some pics, it was dark in the house after I got it so worked with the available lighting pictures with it on the phone were taken with a tablet so they aren't as good. I can get better ones up tomorrow. If you guys like them check out their site they have over 10 colors of this style of case and its TPU material. They also have other cases like Cyanogen Mod and others.
And all of the access points are of no trouble the power button volume rocker and S-Pen are all accessible with ease.
Let me know what you think
Thanks,

Got the same one in clear gray. I'm happy with it for the 2 weeks I've owned it. Only things I dislike are how grippy it isn't and air bubbles I get on the back.

Hi all. I purchased this from Amazon and it arrived yesterday. So far, it's just awesome. Small footprint, feels very sturdy, holds phone securely and allows you to adjust the angle it sits for optimal viewing. I did not notice my S6 Edge getting unusually warm like others have said about other chargers. For the money, I think it's great. Any questions, let me know.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LJKIOSU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
A few questions for you:
** Are you using a case with your S6 Edge while charging?
** Do you have to move the phone around to find the sweet spot to get it to start charging?
** Does it hold the phone well if you have the charger angled a lot?

Hi. Thus far, I only have a thin plastic screen protector-ish thing on the back of the phone, but I am guessing it won't work with a case on very well - if at all. I imagine it depends on the case in question though. I have not had an issue where I had to find the sweet spot at all. I place it around the middle of the back and it just works!
I do have a case arriving today though, so I will test it out with the case on and report back.
For $25, I am very pleased so far. So many others were upwards of two to three times the cost (although some were cheaper too). Hope this helps.
EDIT: Okay, so my new Kavaj Tokyo case arrived and to my surprise, not only does the charger still hold my phone, it charges it through the case! Now I really love this case!!

Looks like this is no longer available on Amazon. Here is one on eBay:

Are we supposed to receive a tweezer and replacement nibs for this phone in the box? I ordered it from Samsung direct and cannot seem to find it.
Is anyone else missing it from the box?
Yes, those are supposed to be included: http://www.samsung.com/us/galaxy/note8/specs/ .

This is going to be a problem. I know from bitter experience that if an item is missing Samsung will require the whole box and contents including your mobile to be returned! Unless your outlet can arrange with the Samsung rep' to just give you a pack. Its an absurd situation. I speak in relation to Southern Europe, if you are in the USA or UK etc things 'may' be different?
It happens, it has to considering millions of these mobiles will be shipped. Its just a pain to resolve.
I know numerous Note 7 buyers where NOT requested to return all the contents of the box only the mobile. To that end maybe a decent member here who has a spare set could send it to you as a kind favour? If I had a set I would do so. When I returned both my Note 7's the outlet (Samsung) required everything, including the so called free VR head set! :silly:
Hope you can resolve this with a minimum of fuss.
Ryland :good:
It also happens that customers sometimes fail to check every nook and cranny of their packaging, or fail to unbox their device in the middle of an otherwise-empty surface where they can easily see everything that's removed from the box, and where there's no danger of knocking tiny items to the floor.
Worst case, though, is that you can order replacement nibs for a few dollars.
what are the little tweezer things for anyway?

tip replacements for the pen.
Mine were up against the upper right corner under the flap. I haven't taken any of the accessories out.
