3rd Party Battery Case Attachment - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm wondering whether any 3rd party manufacturer will sell battery case attachment like these for Xperia Z. I think should be easy for them to build a custom one for XPZ since there are contact points for charging on the side.
The following is for Samsung Galaxy:

You want this phone to be bigger?!?

3rd? Where is 2nd?

The 2nd party is either you or Sony, depending on your point of view.

yes would like to have these untill they are ultra slim and no fancy bright leds and they use the dockinng ports to charge is always good and people would buy it even if its slightly expensive as long as they use good materials to compliment the phone looks and feel * which I highly doubt

You mean something like this one? Cost me less than 20 Euro delivered here in Oz, pretty high quality and 2,800mAh. Fits the phone perfectly and uses the external power pins. Perfect!

Here's a test of the power pack. I would say that 2,800mAh is optimistic but it can sure charge the phone once. Good to see that output being close to 1A, too.

I mean my mother has bought herself a S/E C905 phone and in the box there was a USB converter where you could insert the Sony M2 and then flash the card on the pc.
Why did S/E do something simular with the X1?
because m2 adapters are not common+ there is no real demand for something like that especially when you consider that you can simply use the usb cable to do what you want
get one from here its only $1.07 with free shipping worldwide

Hell's yeah, I'd be pissed at the manufacturer if the windshield cracked at -20C! That's a manufacturing defect for sure. Unless you bought a South American car and were driving it in the Yukon.
You buy a product in Canada, it should be built to withstand Canadian weather. You buy a product in the US, it should be built to withstand the weather extremes there. Same for any part of the world.

My wooden stylus

I have an iPad and a nexus s... The stylus works with both and wanted to share with you guys. I do recommend this stylus for drawing and note taking. I'm sure this will work with honeycomb tablets.
This stylus is called the E. Stylo stylus for capacitive screens.
e.stylo features:
- lightweight
- both tips work at different angles
- no extra pressure is needed for it to work
- works with gloves on
- smoothly glides over the screen
The final price of e.stylo will be $15.95 plus $4.99 US shipping and $7.99 for international shipping.
Purchased from http://www.Plai.tv/ if any artist/note takers are interested.
I also made a video of it....(videos in my signature) Check it out if u want to see how it responds on the nexus and iPad.
You can scroll the pictures to the right... sorry about the huge pics.

LOL nice
it looks like a small chopstick or a very thick toothpick
which BTW works the same way, in fact any soft edge pointy stick will do just the same
personally i prefer to use my finger nails to write, it's 100% natural in writing and you carry it with you all the time
It's very nice.... Just like a chopstick (edgy), as long as a pencil, and lightweight but not too light.... those pics suck.
I cant wait for the samsung tab, this would be a great stylus for it.
Once Sammy is out, I'm throwing the iPad in the trash. (for sale)

Tiny keyboard (external)

I just bought a Rii Handheld keyboard (RII-518), and I am very happy with it.
It looks like this:

only smaller than you think, and it was only 35 dollars from this site: http://dx.com/p/mini-handheld-rechargeable-bluetooth-wireless-keyboard-93118
It pairs beautifully, and the only think I don't like about it is that it doesn't work right away when you turn it on. You sort of have to push a few buttons, and then change apps - but then it works fine. I usually just turn it on when I start using it, and then don't turn it off until I put the tablet away for the night.
Anyway, try it if you think it's for you.
Tempted to buy this. One of those items I would really like to test drive before I commit though. I have would be using it for note taking in class probably. Thoughts?
Looks nice n compact..
I've got one of the diNovo mini's.

Works well, and you have mouse control as well with the trackpad on the right.
I got this one and really like it
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004T0QLLO/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i01
Both of those are rechargeable? And have you tried to do any extensive note taking?
Seems way over priced, have seen similar ones for 10$ shipped on ebay, Chinese ones
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Build quality on the cheap Chinese ones can be very poor though, waste of $10 if you get it and the keys don't work properly.
Well, I won't say the Rii's quality is comparable to an old IBM Model M keyboard, but it certainly works! Well worth the money IMO.

Advice on this wireless charger

will this damage my device? Will it charge correctly and completely?

thanks for any input..
You should check out the wireless charging mod thread in the original Android development section, it's much cheaper and doesn't seem very difficult to do. Also from the reports you know it's safe if you do it correctly.

It can charge any usb-chargeable, according my experience.

That actually isn't an option for me. On my original note the usb port started getting a little used and worn. So I'd rather not deal with plugs. You know those mac book mag chargers? I'd love to get one of those for phones. This is the closest were going to get Atm. I'd love to get a 2 amp charger for the note2 using induction. Hopefully the official kit will come out soon from Samsung.

According to the picture it connects to two metal contacts we don't have. So I don't think it will work.
If you have an international version, go right ahead and buy it.

Official Samsung Universal dock review

I got the dock in today after I ordered it from the Samsung site with the 50% coupon.
I had the iBolt dock for my S3 and was wondering how this would compare.
First off the build quality is excellent. The Rubber back and holster pieces are an excellent sticky rubber.

Even the suction cup is very soft and sticky. I was able to lock it on to my wood desk so tight it wouldn't pull off.
My only concern is that it wouldn't fit my Note 2 with a case. Not a problem. The Tpu hybrid case I made fits without a problem which makes me think everything with the possible exception of the Otterbox case will be the same
My case:
Big surprise to me at least that it came with the car charger. I don't ever remember it stating that on the website. That alone is worth about $15 online. I paid a total of $25 for the kit, but you can also get it on Amazon for about $33.00
Overall I'm very happy with the purchase. I always like to purchase OeM products for that reason. Hope this helped a few of you.
Thanks for the solid review

Have you had the opportunity to use it yet? I want to know if it goes into Drive Mode when you put it into the cradle and plug it in.
Thanks,

Yes I used it already. I don't recall it going into car mode
