Thanks for the pointer

I'm using a pdair case with the stud on the rear fitting into a pdair universal mount that suction fits onto the windshield. Check the pdair website for details.

Hello,
have the new Brodit Active Holder, works well as in horizontal or vertical Mode.
Bought it here: http://www.haid-services.de/kfz-hal...odit-halterung512246-htc-incredible-s-kfz.htm
Brodit it´s best i ever had!

Nice thanks for pointing that out. Looks like I then need to buy a separate windscreen mount as couldn't see any on the Brodit site, is that correct?
Many thanks
Ant

verizon seems to have released a decent looking one too, would provide link, but at work right now. edit for link later.

Now THAT'S more like the setup I would want!

Here is a ebay seller with a good amount of accessories. I just bought one of is windshield mount.

Windscreen mounts for Incredible S
Also consider Herbert Richter, a little expensive, but well worth extra pennies.

I just received Verizon's, and it's superb. It's more like a dock, where you plug your car charger into the back of the mount and the dock charges the phone.

Bump. Anyone tried out the official Verizon car dock for this? I heard that it defaults to launching the VZW navigator, but can that be changed?

i would go with the brodit holders. i have had them for my last 4 phones and they are great . The fit is great, however they arn't as cheap as some... but you do pay for what you get.
a good company to get them from is dsl developments. mine should be here in a min so i will post a few pics if your interested
Ordered this one: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HTC-TOUCH-HD2...UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL?hash=item518ed1309c
Came today with charger, holder identical with the one provided by O2 UK with Orbit 2. It's holding HD2 very nicely.

Same here. I've already got the Brodit active mount installed it's the 4th one now. It's one of the first things I buy when I get a new phone. I use a RAM suction mount instead of the vent clip option. It's so easy to use just slide the phone in and out.
Ditto. I've just fitted a Brodit active mount for my HD2. Good quality mount that holds the HD2 firmly vertically or horizontally and the power connector lines up perfectly. I never regretted buying Brodit mounts for my past two phones and this one looks to be no exception.
same as above Brodit holder every time, good quality, good fit, not cheap but with a £500 phone its well worth getting something thats not going to drop it eh?
Brodit all the way! btw, there is a active thread already on this with many posts

Why not having a look on www.brodit.com.
I already installed the active one but removed the cig-plug (whole cable) and replaced it by a USB cable. So I'm also able to listen music while charging.
Works like a charm.

Hi Joerg,
How did you do this, my car stereo has a USB input and I'm also hoping this maybe a partial workaround to the Bluetooth issue.
Is there a line out in the micro-usb-plug, too? Like in the older HTC-devices or can i only get sound over the 3.5mm-headphone-plug?
On my polaris i used a htc adapter, where i pluged in a 3.5mm-sound-cable.

The Audio line out on the HD (mini USB) was not available so I can't imagine it being reinstated for the the HD2.
That´s bad. So i allways have to plug in two cables.
it looks nice. Thanks!
However, having a look at it, it seems like it's not possible to keep the HD2 horizontally (I mean the support holding the HD2 seems to be only for vertical use). Is this correct?

Would be intresting, if someone has this carholder and can say something about ist.
Landscape holding is important for me, because i want to use the hd2 for navigation.
What about the Motorola Moto Q-Holder? Can i use my HD2 landscape with this holder?

[Q] Dell Streak car mount options

Hi all. I am hoping someone here can help me find the right car mount for my Streak. Its in an otterbox commuter case. I want a mount that will fit the Streak securely while in the case and also be able to charge the phone while mounted. Would appreciate any input.
Have you used the search option or looked on ebay or done any work at all? There are a bunch of threads already including one i made, if you search "dell streak 5 car holder" in ebay you will find what you need!

I actually found one at walmart in the automotive department. $15. Fits perfect and leaves room to plug in the charger.

I bought mine the day u posted this on e-bay and its the best for the Dell streak 5. arrived in the mail last week (the both of them) the original car mount from Dell is fantastic plus u can use the XM-Radio vents .pocketables.com/2011/03/xm-radio-vent-clip-mount-fits-dell-streak-car-kit-holder.htmlwhich gives u a better and closer feel to the device while you drive. Buy both from e-bay cheap. Please view link below
Slipgrip makes a great holder and they have versions from naked to otterbox defender and all in between. Check them out on ebay

eBay has them but I remember seeing one that held various Otterbox cases somewhere....
Mine snapped and the part that holds my phone broke... I'm also looking for a car dock myself.
I'll sell ya mine. PM me if yer interested. I never use it. It's in perfect condition.
I've also got a car dock I'll sell if anyone wants it. I hardly use it now and I'm moving to the city next week, so I really won't be needing it now.
I don't have the car charger, just the dock.
PM me if you want it.

Are there car docks that have the right attachment for the outterbox defender case?
I have a Rocketfish mount I got at Best Buy for $10 that has the same style attachment point on it as the defender case. Bracketron also makes mounts with the same type attachment. You can get a variety of 'stalks' to mount the defender on.

No - it seems that Best Buy has switched to Bracketron for their universal GPS mounts. Search BB's site for 'universal gps mount'. You can find the rocketfish mounts on eBay - same search term.

Car Craddle, not universal?

Does anybody know a perfect fitting car craddle, like the original from LG for the P970?
Brodit is thinking about to release a cradle. So just email them that you also want a cradle, maybe this helps
Just mail to: [email protected]
why not a universal craddle?
i bought a new specific craddle after changing the mobile.
now i try this one:
Clingo Universal Vent Mount
after 4 weeks, i like it.
sorry, can't post outside links.
You can also use the craddle for the galaxy nexus from Brodit , fit 100%
Best regards,
Christian
Thanks for your replys, both are worth to take a closer look to it.

The Clingo doesn't work because it needs an even surface. The back of the 4X is uneven.
I think I give the Galaxy Nexus cradle a try if its available on Amazon. Thanks.
Looking at the pics of the Brodit for the Galaxy Nexus it looks like the Nexus has a curved base. Surely that won't fit? I want to be sure before spending £35 on one!

Searching at Brodit for the holder the search shows two models:
Item no 511324
Passive holder with tilt swivel - Samsung Galaxy Nexus GT-I9250
Item no 511331
Passive holder with tilt swivel - Samsung Galaxy Nexus SCH-I515
Which one is the right one?
Thanks,
Sebastian
I bought this one - Samsung ECS-K2
I just bought a Clingo, and put a screw through the base of the ball-socket part to secure it to my Brodit base in my car!!
It holds it quite far out though, tomorrow I think I'll saw the ball-socket's arm down a bit and put a screw into the middle of it from the back of the Brodit plate.
Works well on the textured rear of the 4x, but with the Nillkin cover it did keep falling off, I guess it's a funny slightly rubbery finish

Thought I'd show a pic of my Clingo, modified by cutting off the ball-joint and screwing it to my Brodit base. (it was far too far out when I screwed the whole ball-joint arm on, and was knocked with every gear-change.
I just used my carkit I had for my SGS2, fits perfectly..

Wombat - Was it a Brodit? Active? (with charger) or just the 'passive' holder?
I was going to buy one as the 4x is only 2mm wider, and was contemplating dremelling it out a bit!! Would love to know if it fits as it is!
Thanks for the pic. Looks really cool!

Looking for a desk cradle/stand (No Dock)

Hey everyone. I'm after a cradle stand for my desk at work that doesn't have a dock. Can't seem to find any. Can only find ones with a charging dock.
Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk 2
The google told me you named it wrong. Simply look up cell phone stand... profit.
one guy also posted awhile back about a home made stand. Using an old hotel key, he bent in a way that you can cradle your phone in.
edit: thread title was "need a dock? I got one for free"
I would google portable book stand. You can find something for around $10 or less.
Another option you may want to look at is the Rockfish PadPivo. You can find the first version for five to ten dollars on sale. The new version is around forty dollars. It's a bit more robust in that you can use it on a desk, or other places by using it on your leg. I've done bot. I picked up the first version for five dollars on sale at Bestbuy
I have a simple folding portable stand for my ten inch tablet that I keep in my tablet cas. I've used one or twice with the GN2, but it was a bit of overkill
