Figured I'd ask. Anyone here own a 97-03 Pontiac Grand Prix and - Galaxy Note II Accessories

found a nice place to mount your 2?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app

I drive a 2002 Grand Prix and I use to mount my Note 2 on the left side right above the dash air vent using one of those universal holders that would stick to your windshield. It did'n't obstruct my front view at all. But I didn't really use it that much because it was just to big, clunky, and really ugly. So I just gave it to my girlfriend. I'm currently looking for something more compact, that will clip on to the center vents of the dashboard, and is easily removable to stow away when not in use.
I was looking into something like this. But I'm kind of leaning towards something that will just clip on the vent.

What about a CD mount?

CD mount is not an option as the radio I will be using has no CD slot accessible.

I also bought this one too today to see if I csn get it to suction to inside the cupholder.

The other option would be to suction cup on top of the dash right above the DIC, hanging downwards but that's too far s reach for me.

I have a 99 GTP I haven't gotten a mount yet but might look for one. My old NS4G fit in the cup holder but no way this behemoth is doing that lol. I tried propping it on the shifter and it just fell. Basically keep it in my pocket or in the cubby hole in front of the shifter.

You could also get any $3 case off ebay, put soft Velcro on the back of the case and then a square of hard velcro anywhere on the dash. I've been doing this for a while and I love it.

Most vehicle plastics are textured. If the bottom of your cupholder is textured this won't work. It needs a flat /smooth surface.

It's flat but not the entire size of the flat surface is available due to the folding design. The one mount does come with a suction platform though.

Ok so one of the 2 mounts I ordered came in today. It's very late and after 13 hours of work, I am too tired to do any pics. But I shoud be getting some hopefully tomorrow.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app

Ok so no need for pics on the first one. It will not fit the factory cupholders. Nor will it attach/fit anywhere else except the windshield. So for now, until the floor mount cradle gets here, left side corner of windshield is where my Note will go. Definitely not ideal but it'll do.

The TPU case leaves marks on the metal coat

I have my SN2 for 10 days and i am using a tpu case from day one..today i found marks on the metal coat . Can i remove these marks?
nope, there will be some small marks, had it on my SGS2, still better than having no case IMO, after 1.5 years the marks didn't increase a bit. Planning to get a case for the Note 2 anytime

The TPU cases will scratch your phone's outter body, and there is no way to remove it but it will protect your phone.
I haven't had a device with Chrome Trim since my Touch Pro 1. I can see how little bits of dust can get in between the tpu and body of the phone. Some slight rubbing can cause the scratches I suppose. I haven't seen any on my last 3 devices, but then again they were dull/semi gloss black.

But why? There are only dusts between the tpu and the phone , so what is scratching it?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Dust with include microscopic bits of grit - this is the culprit
I guess ideally you can use one of those clear skins on the body of the phone. Then use the tpu. No scratches anymore.

Looks alot like the ballistic. I was going to get it before but decided to wait for the otterbox commuter. At that price you cant go wrong. Seems like a very sturdy case.

Reminds of Tron Legacy for some reason :silly:
I have the all black version of this case. It works well and the kickstand is sturdy. I only plan on using it till I find a holster case that I like. A quick tip for this case is to put a dab of super glue on the tab that locks the kickstand and let it harden, with out it the kick stand tends to come out on its own.

Some people prefer the 10 dollar cases to the premium 50 dollar cases with the logo on the back. My case was 15 bucks. It fits. If i was pleased enough i would have shared it with the community. But now i know that this isn't a place for such things. Thanks for that revelation.

Xda case or seidio surface

I'm deciding between xda/cruzerlite and seidio surface/best buy premium
Xda is xda and only $10 and looks nice
Surface seems more durable and comes with holster that I might or might not use
This is my 1st phone that isn't a flip so I don't know if I will use it because I don't like that it takes up a whole pocket but the phone might weigh down my pants.

I bought the surface and love it!!! Only thing is that it ripped off my skinomi screen protector so I'm in search for a screen protector that works with this case... It does seem to collect dust around the edges of the the screen but not too bad and doesn't bother me... Over I think it's perfect

I have a JLG and the surface case... Best combo. Just make sure to line up the protector with the home button. The two literally fit together perfectly minus an 1/8" gap at the bottom. My camera can't even capture how well the two go together.
Enjoy!

Carrying a lint free cloth

Here's an easy way not to forget a cleaning cloth.
Not really a fan of taking off and putting on my case over and over again... wears the sides of the phone out a little.
I just fold and put it in my wallet.
Won't that trap heat in the case? Like insulation.

Pouch case...

Does anyone know or have a drop in pouch anyway kinda similar to this one? This one was for my s3. I'm looking for something I can drop my n2 in when I'm running or in the gym.
Also something with a clip (not loop) so I can clip on my shorts. No arm bands. Thanks in advance
