Does the dock work if you have a protective case on the phone (galaxy s3) or does the connection not stick out far enough?

Not well. Its made to exact specs and thickness of s3. You could take out the s3 adapter back from the dock but it would fit in loosely depending on your case.

No you have to take the cover off. I have a slim cover and it still won't fit. ..

It does not work in the holder but they give u a cable to connect it to that alows you to use it off the dock in a case but it won't charge your phone when connected on the cable. It does charge when on the dock with out your case off your phone

I have an S 2. ... I don't have a cover on it when I dock it. I use a PD Air case & pull the unit from the case before docking it. ... I suspect that your s 3 won't fit with the extra case. ...DE

Personally, the dock I have did not fit into my phone with the case on. It could also depend on your dock but because it's kind of like a bumper case it'll be thicker at the bottom so you'll probably have to take it apart to place it in.

I've never used it with the dock but it works fine when I plug my charger into it and my headphones. I'm sorry I couldn't answer your question but so far it works really well for me and the case is easy to put on and take off so if it didn't work that well you could just slip it off and put it back on when you're done.

that's my question as well, as I have the s5 mini phone. I want to get this dock for it, but am seeing many yes and no answers. someone please tell me whether it will work with it.

hang on, friendly internet stranger; let me plug this thing in. My problem with the dock is it won't fit my phone case, but otherwise it seems to be working. Attached to my computer it still plays music, works great, and claims to be connected to my computer as a media device. If you're not using a phone case, this dock is pretty good. Have a great day!

It does not interfere with using the mobile dock at all. It does tend to peel up a little on the edge on that side after a while if you take it apart and put it together a lot

I had the same concern, bought a 5 pin extension and it did not pick up the device. I'm using a Samsung S4 Active, so I've got a port cover that seriously gets in the way, especially when my case is on the phone. One workaround I've accidentally found is that the tent-shaped portion at the top of the device pops off rather easily and fits much better.

I have a Pt case and with the removable cradle removed, it works fine. I have had the dock for several months now.

I purchased the cables for my galaxy s3. The cables fit into the hole at the top of the phone without any problem. However, the connection is not as snug if depending upon which type of phone cover you are using. My phone has a regular cover and it was fine. My husband has a different heavy duty cover and at first we didnt think it "fit" his phone. He had to remove his cover in order to use this product.

for my case- the case- had to be removed for the dock connector to interface correctly

We don't use a dock, so I couldn't say for sure; but I agree with other respondents that the shield only covers the face and should cause no interference with a docking device.

The dock is achieved by using 3.5 mm cable. As long as your phone has a 3.5 mm output, it should work.

I am not familiar with the case you are asking about, but I can tell you that I use a dual layer case and there is plenty of room to dock on this charger, where I couldn't use on other standard charging docks. Hope that helps.

You need to take off any covers to use the dock . Otherwise you will not make good connection. Hopethis helps you out.

I just tried on my S3 and it will. Its about an inch past both ends of the phone, though.

I couldn't get it to work with my bose docking station and s3 . I returned it.

We bought 2 docks. Our Z3s would only charge if held just perfectly-a near impossible task. Results might be different if you have a case on your phone
