Best way to get dk30 dock and sbh52 - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

As a previous xperia Z owner, I could not live without the dk26 dock, unflapping the phone every time didn't feel right.
That being said, the dock for the zu is called dk30. I cannot find a way to get one of these in north america at the moment. Lets put our heads together and post whatever we can about this dock and the elusive sbh-52 bluetooth receiver.
I really want that sbh-52 bluetooth receiver as a business person I am going to keep my large phone in my bag most of the time. So I would like to carry that small receiver in my pockets to answer calls with. Let's face it, my head is average sized and putting that phone up to my head does look quite silly!

So do i. Why the Sony won't launch both accessories together with z ultra? Now when I answer the phone so attractive to other people look at me like the Mr bean.

Only three left. (Amazon)
Edit: The only ones i've found that's available for purchase is at Amazon. Sony says "Coming soon", and it's the same with Clove and other sites. I have no idea where the ones at Amazon comes from.

Maybe is the same seller but you can get on Ebay also

i can't wait til the Bluetooth handset is release, looks like that going to be a must have accessory.

I saw in another youtube video that someone had a magnetic power connector. Does anyone know what that one is called and where to buy it?
It would be just as easy to pop that on then to put in dock. Dock will be great for my office and magnet for my nightstand.

The dock comes with a magnetic charging cable. It's called EC21 and you can see it in the box contents section for the dock:

Is this charging cable an original/OEM/authentic Sony charger/cable or is it a third party one?

It's DX (formerly known as Deal Extreme), and it's 100% "fake". Still, i have ordered from them a couple of times in the past, and i haven't had any trouble with "their" products. They are shipping out from Hong Kong for free, so expect it to be slow (It takes 10-14 days for me in Europe), but my bet would be 5-7 days for the US (I assume they're going in the other direction )

So the dock itself is just effectively a stand and you have to connect the EC21 into the dock to actually charge the device?
Or do you get a complete charging dock and a separate magnetic charging cable, so that you could leave one at work and the other at home?
I suspect its the first option but just checking

I use a generic Micro USB charger in the car, and it works just fine. If you look at the M-USB connector, it looks like /_____\ - make sure the narrower side is facing up when you plug it in to the interface and you'll be good to go.

I picked this up from Best Buy, it's obviously a generic type thing that lots of companies sell under their own brand name since this wasn't cobra or the other brand referenced in that link. I drove around with it all day and for the most part it did well. You have to be careful not to push hard on the sides, it's too similar a motion to the twist you use to remove it. I might modify the brackets on the bottom so that it sits better on them. I only had it fall off once and it's because I was messing with it and then took a hard turn up a steep ramped curb. It bounced to my passenger seat floor. I was trying to dislodge it though so I don't blame it really. I'll try to do some video of it while driving to help others.
I have the official dock from HTC for the Sprint View. It comes with a AC Charger and a USB cable that are identical to those that ship with the tablet. I am unsure what the button does as I didn't see any documentation with the dock. I had to buy the dock and stylus in order to get 25% off the accessories and then a $50 credit to get the pen for free.

[VIDEO] HTC One Max - Wireless Charging - QI Standard

Well one of the things I missed the most after getting the HTC One Max was wireless charging. It'd be nice to have a case that made use of the Pogo pins or something else, but this will have to do for now. If someone knows of a better solution, please comment below.
Total cost was $16 for the a TPU case and wireless charging receiver pad with MicroUSB cable.
htc have a case that has a battery in built. it uses the pogo pins. certainly you are aware of this case?

The WCP 700 by LG is one of my favorites since the pad is so big. I did remove the speaker from it cause the fully charged notice is annoying.
I wouldn't get the angled Google Orb all WCP 400. It's harder to find the right spot especially with a larger device.
The Nokia DT-900 can usually be found for a good price online. It isn't bad. Just don't get the vertical stand which is the DT-910.
Oh and the LG WCP-300 is affordable too.
If you want to pick these up locally and you might find the WCP-700 and 300 at Verizon. The Nokia DT-900 is probably at AT&T.

Haven't run it down all the way much, but the charge rate is about half the USB cable. I'll post some charts I've collected in the next few days.

You know anywhere you can currently find one of these?
The link is sold out already and the other KR-Net QI receiver pads posted on amazon/ebay all have the cable coming out the opposite side of the connector (the usb cable would be coming up to the screen instead of behind the phone, once its plugged in).
I would like to combine this with my power flip case. A prong solution wouldn't be good for people already using a case that takes advantage of the prongs.
In general they are universal solutions. Here is a link to one:
http://goo.gl/pqG2du
Type B
I picked this one because the cord is shorter. As an update to the OP, the receiver finally gave out from changing cases quite a few times. The cord was so long that it had to be stuffed under the case.
Let us know how it works out when you get to try it.
Does anyone happen to know the pinout for the pogo pins on this phone? I just got one through work, and need to use usb connection frequently enough that I don't trust the connector on these. However, I have a dual layer Incipio case, and think it would be fairly easy to put the coil on the outside of the rubber portion, but under the plastic outer cover. Then use the pogo pins for the charging connection.

Sony Charging Dock

Looks like Sony once again bring out a charging dock tailored for the new flag ship named DK36
http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/products/accessories/magnetic-charging-dock-dk36/
I wonder if we removed the cable from the DK31 dock it will fit the magnetic ports on the Z2?
This is the first design flaw I've spotted with the Z2. The dock actually blocks a little part of the screen. The dock makes it a very good mini television and this kind of ruins it. Hope this isn't the case and this isn't the final product.
I emailed Sony about the dock, they say that the z1 dock will not work on the z2. I assume they mean that the pins won't align

It seems the thickness of two phone is different that why the z1 dock will not work on the z2.

Generic Dock from Amazon
I bought this generic one from Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00JE81AJE
Works perfectly and even has a different width receiver for when you fit a case on to the Z2 and it's half the price. Recommended :good:
I've sent mine back to Amazon, the dock charger only works when plugged into the wall socket, it doesn't charge the phone (or provide any connection whatsoever) when plugged into a USB port. Maybe it's obvious for everyone else, but it wasn't for me.
Also, this 30 euro accessory is just a small piece of plastic, you don't even get a USB cable in the package. Sony is charging way too much for this.
I'm now hoping for a third-party dock that will be able to connect and charge via USB.
I can't use either of my cases with the dock. So had to order the official Sony case (through I hate cases like that). Gutted that I can't use a thin gel case on it, in the dock!

Yup. It does fit without problems.
Are there any 3rd party cases that fit? I really hate cases like the official Sony one, but have ordered it purely to protect the device, even though I hate the style. Every gel case I have purchased from eBay or Amazon does not fit...

This is exactly the same with the dock from the Xperia Z - completely overpriced and they don't advertise that it must use a high-current charger, 500mA from a USB port won't work.
At least they should include a power adapter + cable. The dock has to contain about $1 worth of materials, if even that.

I can assure you it does not go into the dock if you wanted that. And there are full length cables that do the same thing (at least I think the magnetic charging cables fit with a case), saves the hassle of an adapter. If you can justify getting it, then nice find mate.

It's purpose built to be used with the Xperia phones - acts as a phone dock and charges through the charging strip. I've seen pricing is going to be $250 and it'll be released in May, hopefully it's available in the UK at a reasonable price.

Well, my Samsung Note 3 dock is the same way. It doesn't have a built in charger like the Galaxy S2 dock used to. So I have to plug in a micro-usb car charger separately. I got a magnetic car charger from Amazon, so I'll probably end up doing something similar for the Z2.
I may go ahead and order the Sony one; speaking of which, I received the dk36 magnetic charger today as well.
And I think that is the direction I'll go. Official dock + magnetic charger. Currently have the official HTC one x dock and the quality of that is significantly better than any other 3rd party cheap dock I have tried before. Hoping Sony dock is good quality
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk
That car dock looks pretty much the same as many if the universal docks.
I think I may just have Fab my own since it doesn't look like they ever offer a proper model specific dock for Sony phones. I can easily modify a cheap hard case with a magnetic charger attached to it for more functional and easy to use dock.
This is one thing I'll miss about Motorola(assuming they've continued doing it), they offer cheap model specific docks that use the same ball mount as Garmin so you options on how you mount it in your car.
I got my magnetic dock the other day, it's smaller than I thought it would be. I was hoping I could put a NFC tag on top of it to trigger some tasker tasks but I don't think it will be close enough to the sensor.

It looks to me like that dock is a unit that you mount in-dash. Once you put the phone in the cradle it "becomes" the head unit. One major benefit to having a built in radio tuner in the phone. Seems pretty awesome to me.

I got one from Crutchfield and installed it a couple of days ago - works good so far! I've posted a review on Amazon.
That said, I would probably have chosen a device-specific cradle from Brodit/ProClipUSA if one had been available for the Z2 by now - their Z1 cradles seem nice (and I've had good luck with their previous products for other phones).

4 stars - good enough for me!
Still waiting on the replacement facia as my Mazda 2 won't take a double din (or single din) without it. Really just hoping the cables I've got for the steering controls work as the manufacturer (Connects2) advised. Heard the Axxess ASWC-1 that you have would definitely control all the functions but the Connects2 guy advised theirs also works and I got it at a fraction of the price compared to the ASWC-1 which seems to be a US product.

Z2 with WCR14

I wanted to have QI wireless charging but as Sony discontinued WCR12, I was checking WCR14 cover. As Z2 and Z3 are very similar in size, they both have magnetic charging on left side, I was thinking if it would work? I didn't find any difference between the ports but I want to be sure before spending the money as its expensive. Don't tell me to buy magnetic charger as I didn't find it much useful. Thanks.

I never could find a concrete answer on this either so I said eff it and bought one today.. I'll reply back with the results once it shows up in the mail.
I doubt it will fit, my cousin has a z3, it is thinner and slightly shorter. But the charging pins are the same size.

Yeah it was a tight squeeze, but it did more or less clip into place without too much of a stretch. Unfortunately unless it just doesn't like my Nokia charging pads (which are still working fine with other devices so I doubt it) it seems that the magnetic charging contacts just aren't lined up well enough for it to work.
Just wanted to resurrect this thread to see whether you managed to use this on a daily basis
