Hello, everyone, I want to share my experience with HP X3 Elite Lap Dock and Ready For.
Pros:
- works out of the box
- quality of keyboard is excellent, screen is also good
- size -> I was looking for something small and ultraportable
- price, I bought new for about 350pln (~80 Euro), USB C <-> USB C cable, 45W charger, USB C otg cable included
Cons:
- Audio is not working, you have to switch to phone speaker, Bluetooth or usb c headset
- touchpad is not very comfortable at this moment. Tapping is the only way how you can left click, buttons in touchpad are not working. (propably update should fix it)
- firmware update is only possible through HP Elite X3 smartphone with windows mobile (one of my friend have one, I should get this phone in few days)
For me its the perfect solution to work with termux and debian arm64
Overall, I can realyy recommend working with this lap dock. Even if not for motorola, its cheap and good as second screen to my laptop (linux, windows tested without any issue)
Cheers
PS sorry for picture quality, I only have my old LG G2 to take a picture

Ok, so hoepfully someone can clear this up as I don't yet have my Kaiser (tilt) and am trying to get some accessories.
I previously had a PPC-6700 which synced and charged via a standard mini-USB jack.
I then upgraded to the PPC-6800 which I only had for about a week (had to give it back to my work). With that device there was a different type of usb jack on it that seems to be what the Kaiser also has. Can someone tell me what this is called?
From my recollection however, this slightly different jack would also accept the typical mini-usb plug as i can remember using my PPC-6700 wall charger on it.
So can you use standard USB to mini-USB plugs to interface the Kaiser with either a PC for sync/charge or to a wall-charger? What is the new interface called and what is the point of it?
thanks much!
I may have actually answerd my own question as I have found (I think) the name for this new interface... EXTUSBTM ? Is this correct. And the point is to interface the charger/sync and audio headset together?
If this is all it does then I should be fine using all my old mini-usb plugs for data interface/charging, right?
thx!
Yes, you can use a standard 5 pin mini USB cable. The port is HTC's 11 pin combination sync/charge/audio port. Both their plug and the standard 5 pin mini USB plugs fit and work.
Wikipedia (for once!) isn't too big on details here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_ExtUSB
But basically, it's got 11 pins to handle audio, power and syncing.
Have a look here for pinouts etc.

Hi
I don't know if people realise this but you can modify a generic car charger to automaticlly activate the Navi Panel mode so you don't need to buy the SU400 kit.
You will need a car charger that is capable of suppying 1 amp, to enable fast charging. ( Use an app called Spoon Charge to check) or disassemble the USB Micro A plug and ensure Data- and Data + are soldered together. DO NOT solder Data - and Data + togehter if not already done so this means the device is not capable of supplying 1amp.
If so you should have a unused pin ( this is called the ID pin) solder this along with Data + and Data - to OV.
When the charger is connected it will launch Navi Panle if enabled and turn on bluetooth and pair to a set device.
I will take a pic of the modded plug and post it up. In theory I would assume the same mechanism is used on more than this device.

OMG LEGEND bro. lol. Finally someone figured out HOW to do this so you don't have to buy that overpriced HD2 carkit. Thanks. Mod's this should be a sticky.
mods seriously this should be front page news
Are you sure, that this will work? Did you tried it yourself? Cause my CU-S400 is also activaiting the Navipanel even if i don't have plugged in the Charger! So I think that it hasn't anything to do with the mAh-size of the charging unit....
You're right.
Right connections for recognition Car Kit Mode :

It looks like a neat solution for anyone who's been wondering when the Apple TV 2G will be able to boot Linux, seem to have everything that you'd need to a silent, low power media streamer without the trouble of building something using beagleboard or similar...
I have no idea how this works properly without a touchscreen but clearly it does. It should be possible to connect an external mouse or larger touchscreen display to make it easier to control. I'm thinking of getting one and a cheap IR-based 24" touchscreen display for a nice living room media controller.
Wanted to know if anyone has one and if it's possible to root this?
Bump! Anybody get one of these things yet. I'm a Google TV owner and wondering how this thing compares.
i have received it one it comes with android 2.1, upgraded to 2.2 through following forum http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=1679431&p=5 and nice people working on it for rooting and all, it is just another android mobile without gsm / gps in a black box, u can attache bluetooth keyboard mouse which i m using.
Here we go guys! the moment youve all been waiting for!
Running USBrom and Timur's USB Host kernel (http://mehrvarz.github.io/nexus-7-usbrom/)
Double Din facia (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/250898912150?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT)

USB OTG Cable (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/USB-Type-...-with-Micro-USB-Female-Y-Cable-/291312529344?)
Step 1
I wanted to keep my Headunit so I relocated that
Step 2
Set up my N7... Rooted and flashed USBrom- designed specifically to install N7's in cars!
Step 3
install apps/settings etc
I'm using car dock ultra
navfree
torque
tasker
apollo music player
step 4
get the nexus in the facia!
this was a tricky one but got there, had problems with the power as the facia is only so wide I filed down part of the inside and made a bezel so it sits back which accommodates the space for the USB cable I then had to make sure it would stay in place etc
Step5
get it all in!
I have it running so ingition on= tablet wake, car home ultra starts- CHU sorts out the brightness- IE in the dark
ignition off tablet closes all apps and goes into deep sleep
Future plans:
DAB/freeview stick
reverse/frontal camera
smaller HU
here are some cheeky pictures
Set up my nexus so it looks super sexy

from the rear
had a gap so made up a beazle
and fitted
in place
running torque
and looking rather sexy
Looking good, is there a big difference between using dac and headphones out ? I'm doing the same thing for my car but with main functionality sat nav and reverse camera (easycap + analog camera)
And in the dark
I haven't played any music through it, just sound effects to make sure it works
Will test and compare
This little remote controls just about everything on my Android HU. They should have included this remote with my head unit, it's fantastic!
It's about $8 on Ebay or Amazon. It works great with Poweramp and most other applications.
It's a small black 2.4G Air Mouse with a red power button on center top and no keyboard.
Sorry I cant post images or links due to this forums restrictions.
waiting for the link !

Was hoping it was smaller though - I want to mount it on the back of the steering whee spoke.
