How to Make a Samsung Galaxy S III Dock Using Its Box
Samsung Galaxy S III is the latest device from the Asian giant designed to counter Apple’s iPhone. It has various features on the same lines as the iPhone and runs the Android operating system. This giant from Samsung Electronics has a huge 4.8-inch screen which is multi-touch enabled. The response to this device has been such that it has outclassed even the iPhone for most number of units sold in the last quarter of 2012.
There are many accessories to be used with the Samsung Galaxy S III. For instance, its desktop dock is available for a $49.99 bill on Samsung’s official website. However, you do not necessarily need to spend this much if you are a little creative. This article will tell you how you can make a simple dock connector for your Galaxy S III using its own box in a few simple steps.
Instructions

1
First of all, you need to empty out the box of your device. Take everything out, the manuals, cables, etc.
-
2
Make a marking with pencil where you need to make a cut. You would ideally want to make the cut just above the Samsung Galaxy S III text and the USB end just at the bottom of the box.

Use a simple box cutter to cut out the holes according to the sizes you marked in the step above.

Once you are done with it, insert the wires to give them a proper shape. Push the connecting end right where the phone will be placed and the other end through the second hole. The connecting end will be where the phone will balance itself without falling. Make sure you place the cable that way. Use super glue to hold the connecting end together.
