Hello all. I am looking for a case for my Tab 2, 10.1" model. I have a case that is nice except I can't plug it in to charge unless the flap is open since the charging port is on the bottom. I'd love to have a folio-style case that I can plug in and charge the tablet while the cover is closed. I don't care if I have to unplug it to open the case though.
Any ideas?
I use this and I love it.

Search the web as I'm sure young an find it cheaper.
You have to taken the tablet out completely to use it but the case adds no bulk at all.
This case is not a stand either. But then I put this slim stand in the case and its there whenever in need it.

i wanted to get the TAB with a keyboard dock and an official book cover case
the things i that i figured that the tab would not fit in the dock anymore because of the case
so i'm in a delima should i just get one or both,removing my pad from the case everytime i wanna charge with the dock seems like too much trouble
i haven't seen any cases that would actually fit with any sort of case......
That's pretty much it. I have the bookcover case and a dock. If I plan on using the Tab for a long time and want to charge it while I use it, I remove the cover and dock it. Otherwise if I just want to charge it, I leave it in the case and plug it in. Not much of a pain in the rear since I don't use the dock everyday, but just occasionally.
okay thanks for clearing that up.......might just wait until the bluetooth keybaord case is available
Looking for recommendations for a case for my gtab with built in keyboard. I think I prefer USB over bluetooth cause I am not sure of the bluetooth capabilities of some of the custom ROMs. I am currently running clems beast ROM. Thoughts anyone?
Hi there. So this is the one I own, and it is GREAT! Matter of fact, me and 4 other people in my research group all use this case with our G-tablet for our lab computers. The case is great, the keyboard works great and its USB so you can easily plug and unplug whenever you wish. The case can even fold completely around to use as a basic tablet. And the kickstand sets up the tablet at a great angle for typing
The only negatives I can tell you if you want to hear them are as follows. I'm not sure if its still a problem, but back in the day when I got my case, one of the 4 metal tabs that held the tablet in place was accidentally placed over the USB port and you had to cut a hole in it to make sure it would fit in. It wasn't a big deal and took a minute to cut a hole out, but I heard it was an accident and why we got ours so cheap and its since been fixed. The only other negative is that the keyboard is like 90% the size of a normal keyboard so you just have to get used to the smaller size.
Overall the pros of this case significantly out weigh the negatives and I recommend this case highly. I actually just bought a G-Tablet for my mother for christmas so she can have a Honeycomb tablet as well, and bought this case for her to.
Here's the link, hope it works out for you: http://www.amazon.com/Viewsonic-G-Tablet-Case-Keyboard-Stand/dp/B004JF9N1O

Have a try www.electroniccrap.com there are many accessories for GTAB
I actually ordered this case, but it sounds like it is a little different than the one you got. None of my ports is blocked. The case and keyboard are sufficient. The tabs do not really keep the tablet in place securely. I was able to get around that by putting velcro on the back of the tab and the the case. Also the usb cord really has no place to go, when not in use. Again i fixed that with some simple velcro. All in all this is a good case for $30.
Just wanted to share if anyone is interested in buying a dock, I purchased this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Galaxy-s2-i9100-Zenis-Desktop-Dock-Charger-/330621326245?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4cfa9113a5
It works greats for charging and syncing, is built fairly well (for the price) and comes with a removeable insert that allows you to use a case (so long as it isn't very thick) with the dock. If you have any questions feel free to ask

Wrong section. This belongs in the "want to sell" marketplace.

Hahaha been around here long enough to know where threads go, this was meant to give people another dock option other than the Samsung one since I know a few people are not very pleased with it. But thanks for your "mod" suggestion.

I bought the same dock a couple weeks ago, still waiting for it too arrive! Sadly all of these come from Korea, so it takes a while. From my searching it seems to be the best bang for your buck dock. Guess I will have to see when I finally receive it.
Here is a question though. How snug does the phone fit without a case and the insert in the dock?
its a "tight" fit with the insert. you don't have to force the phone in, but it fits well.
Got the dock today and I would highly recommend it for the price! If you use a case with your phone this is a no-brainier. Personally I do not so I have to use the rubber insert, which for the most part is fine. I just don't like how it is a gray color instead of black. Got this dock for 11 dollars on eBay, i think that is a bargain for this dock.
Does it put the phone in dock mode when inserted into the dock like the oem dock?
Anyone know if this will work with out I717?

It probably will. I got this one from amazon. It has a small usb plug that you put into the bottom of the note rather than the built in plug like in the one you linked. This one took a couple of hours to charge since it wasn't empty when I got it. I put my note in it and the case doesn't fit as tight as I would like but it works. I can even use it with the Seidio holster that came with the active case combo. The kickstand felt cheap made. I turned on the charger when the note got down to 41%. A couple of hours later it was at 80% but I was using the note some while it was charging. I believe the output of the case-charger on it is 500Mah. Overall I am satisfied with it. It makes a good alternative to an extended battery. If they would make a holster or belt clip that would work with the mugen battery installed I would jump on that.

Just to let you know that the official LG slim hard case/battery plate that has wireless charging makes the phone slightly bigger so cases like Spiegen won't fit. I bought one for my Korean F400k to get wireless charging and now I can't put my Slim Armour case back on. And this is the non bumper variation of the two backplate covers LG makes which I wrongly assumed would be a straight replacement of the existing backplate. Notwithstanding, it is pretty nice as it gives the phone a much better textured grip...but not much by way of drop protection.
One more thing, you can forget using the Nexus wireless charger (the little square one): the phone keeps telling you to move it to the hotspot, no matter how you position it. The Nokia upright charger works fine though.

Seems like even official charger also have Hot Zone issue. It might be a software bug from LG... very strange.
