Has anyone used this with an extension cable? I don't want to take my phone out of the case every time. looking at the usbfirewire mhl 11 pin cable.

The only way to get a sound signal is with a cable! Docking the Samsung device to the dock will only supply power! So, you can plug a mini-usb charger to your phone & use the audio (stereo) cable to connect to the dock for sound. Personally, if that's your planned general use, then this dock most likely isn't the solution that you need. I'm not sure that a usb<-->firewire cable would even work. The dock works best with the Samsung devices listed in it's product description.

Depending on the case you have, you might be able to get it to fit by leaving the included plastic adapters out. I haven't tried using an extension but it looks like a standard micro USB male to female cable would fit.

Yeah it was a great extender, it worked perfectly until I accidentally dropped the phone in water, killing it off. I definitely recommend this though, its good bang for your buck. You'll need to trim the edge for your power button but otherwise its perfect

I'm using the Caliber CaseMate for my Galaxy S5 and the plastic is too big, blocking the plug from being fully inserted. I'd recommend browsing for a cable in a physical store where you can compare the width before you buy, like I now have to do.

I had the same issue with my life proof iPhone 5 case. I had to buy a adapter that allowed me to connect. Now it's $50I would recommend another cable but this cable has lasted me weeks and months with out going out! Like the other small cables. This cable is very durable! But bulky.

I have two and they're both loose at the port connection point. I believe they were designed that way, to make it easier to plug in the awkward USB 3.0 connector (a terrible design, I might add). I found that having them move didn't help - once I got them lined up, the plug would wiggle and I'd have to start over again. After breaking two port covers on my S5 (from being bent back too many times in the dock) I finally gave up on the EZO and now I just plug in the phone and lay it on a table to charge or transfer data.

We use it as an extension for our Square credit card processing attachment for a phone that has a large phone case. The phone case was to big for the Square to plug into the phone without taking off the case. Hope this helps...

Yes. I added a 10 foot USB extension cable and it works. It's just a normal USB type A Male to type A Female cable. I waterproofed the connection using a hot glue gun before I buried the cable. The big question is... How long of an extension cable can be used?

Hi Friend. Look the pintures of the product. It´s shown the antenna connector only. In my case I was not buy a extension cable. I used the stock one from the car.

@M.Herrera. Nope. Was told by more than one person including Amazon CS that the HDE is incompatible with the Fire and their is no USB host settings to change on the Fire. I am continuing to look for a case/keyboard and hopefully Amazon will read these posts and add a patch or upgrade! Respectfully: Larry Lambert _______________

My Maxboost Fusion case came with an extender that will fit through the case abd plug into the phone. I just plug my headphones into that

It works great with my case, but mine is not the waterproof one; however, if your case has the opening for the cord, there should be no problem. It is no different from the regular cord just longer. I love it!

I have not successfully located high quality protective cases for smart phones with extended batteries. It would be wise for manufacturers to be sensitive to this growing need in the marketplace. If you find one, I am interested in checking it out.

I do not have an android phone but we did have an issue with the I pad which we finally found out it was becaus the cable was not set into the port all of they way. We ended up havin to take the case off of the I pad and make the opening bigger so that the cable could be pushed into the port better. I hope that is all it is for you good luck sorry if this did not help

What about this one? Kind of looks like it would work?Seidio Spring Clip Holster for Use with Non-Cased HTC DROID IncredibleFYI, this holster works perfectly with the extended battery.. may not be a case but covers the front of the phone and lets you wear it on your belt. That's what I am going with.

Some of these have been a little sketchy. Most times they work, sometimes they don't I think there are other issues than the cord. I don't have any android products so I don't know. It seems like it would extend most USB devices.

I purchased this cable (and another model by a different manufacturer) shortly after the 5s came out. This works really well with the iPhone. The one issue I had with the cable was that the connection is a bit big so it wouldn't work with the leather 5s case from Apple. (Well, it didn't work until I got a file and narrowed the connection a bit!)

I have used mine on a Galaxy Note 2 in an Otterbox Commuter case. The ear jack would not let my Intuit GoPayment reader insert far enough. This extension works great for me. You are looking at the proper type of extension. Has to be 4 pole to work, this is exactly that and has decent penetration.
