My personal car dock setup(oh god, another one!?)-video

First off let me state that, yes, sorry, another car dock thread, but i feel that i have a really damn good setup that i haven't seen anyone post pictures or videos of yet(sorry if i missed one :x). Secondly, sorry for the long length, I drone on sometimes, but at least it isn't too ridiculously long.
But, to business, i bought the M2 car mount, and a cheapo case off of ebay, and must i say, i am QUITE impressed with my setup, turned out WAY better than my expectations. Works perfect, spent just over ten dollars on both items(case case with a really good screen protector as well!), overall win! It spins like a charm, holds up great, everything is amazing with it. The little adhesive circle is literally just a tiny bit bigger than a penny, slightly rounder and just as thick, barely noticable when you hold it in case you wish to use the case day to day. Adhesive strips work good both on this and in the car, extremely strong! Case covers camera lens which is a HUGE plus, great buy links will be below the pictures! Lo and behold, the video:

Have fun!

Nice!
I picked up a few of those m2 mounts as well, they're really nice.
I've got mine mounted a little lower, sorta inbetween radio and climate controls, but I'm tempted to move it to the top for the in car video capability.
And nice find on that case! Looks like the closest one to a case-mate barely there yet. I've been waiting for one of those, but they've been out of stock forever.
The previous ebay ones had the big oval hole cutout for the flash camera and speaker all in one opening which I didnt like. May just have to jump on these ones.
Nice find, and lookin good.

Next long trip i take, i'm probably going to record the entire trip and turn it in to a time lapse, would probably do one of my hopeful future trip from chicago to pheonix as well, that would be crazy! Also, I've been using the case for a bit now, and i must say, i love it, i would recommend it to you 100% man.

Ordered 2 black and 2 white cases. What will I do with 4 cases you ask. I have no clue. lol
I figure I can have the dot from the m2 mount on a black and white, and then have two naked cases as well. shoot for 3.99 shipped from hong kong.. why not!

I bit the bullet and bought the mount. Who knows when Sprint will be selling a specific EVO CarDock..
Going on cross country trip next month and need it.

I have the same mount but a clear case. The clear case does not need to be sanded.
I put the lock tab to the left, so that way I never have to worry about the lock tab. It has never fallen off. This makes it a lot easier to rotate the phone.
I also tightened down the mount so that it doesn't pivot at all, makes it much much easier getting it on and off of the mount.

Question, how solid is the mount? Does it handle the road vibrations well? My biggest complaint from most mounts is they don't absorb the vibrations thus watching a movie (for example) would be extremely difficult.
Thanks in advance!

I have no problem putting mine in anymore, it was simply because that was literally the like...second time i had tried it. But yeah, i ended up tightening it up really good, never moves an inch anymore(jiggles a LITTLE when I hit BIG potholes, otherwise good). I would say if you have really crappy shocks in your car, it might jiggle a bit, but my car has pretty crappy shocks and it isn't really bad enough to the point that it annoys me at all.if you don't want any jiggling, you have to lock that thing down hard.

just so you guys know...
i bought a cheap case (1 penny), a cheap car charger ( 3 pennies) and an inexpensive mount (9 dollars), with 5 dollars shipping for all three items (total, not separate), from different retailers, on amazon day before yesterday.
grand total? less than 16 bucks for all three.
should be here in a few days. will let you guys know how it fairs

Got to love how cheap this crap is, think i got mine for a total of(including the extra batters/wall charger) 24 bucks, pretty damn good deals considering all of the stuff i got was pretty good quality!

Thanks "Tickle My Elmo"
Just installed the car Mount and it works perfectly. I have a NAVI in my Honda Ridgeline so my main purpose is to use it to listen to SLACKER when I go cross country next month.
Thanks again..

I just jumped on this... I plan on making some type of "snap in" with a Seido case.

I went ahead and bought the M2 and I also purchased the case from Deal Extreme http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.40745 ... If the suction mount doesn't work well (Honda Element), might add double sided tape and mount to my dash tray where the aux input is... If I'm not satisfied going to use the snap on from suction mount and mount the disc from the M2 to it.

So I bought the case linked here and recieved a completely different case 1 month later. I wanted this case because it looks exactly like the case-mate barely there. What I got was a two piece case with a piece that covers the back and a front piece that sandwiches the phone....not very happy at all.

[Q] Decent Armband?

Does anybody know of a decent armband for this phone? I had something that worked well for my Tilt2, but I don't think it will fit quite right for the Captivate...

Subbed for this

This looks pretty decent plus it has an extra pocket for keys, cards, condoms...you know, the necessities. http://www.thepocketsolution.com/Me...4&Category_Code=samsung_captivate_accessories

It seems like it might obstruct the headphone jack. It also seems like it barely fits as far as the height goes. Any other thoughts? (thanks for the link though!)

This one has access to the screen and headphone jack. Although there is nothing over the top to secure the phone.
And no I don't have it.

Ahhh,,,,, too late, I didn't see your post in time. It already shipped. This is the AB82 tune belt. Is that the model you had?

Anybody find any other options for these? I'm looking too.

I got the TuneBelt AB82 and you were right. It was to small. I called tunebelt and they happily replaced it for their new AB83. They say its the right size but I haven received it yet. I will report back when it arrives.

I got the AB83 and it fits well. The pouch is deeper than the phone which works well for me because i have my phone in a rubber case. I can push the buttons in the front easily but you have to feel around for the side buttons. The headphone jack isn't in the right spot so I cant put the phone in top down. I guess it will be just fine until something perfect comes out.

thanks for checking back in
anyone found anything better yet? It really kills me that it is hard to for runs with this thing

So this tune belt is working out really well. The top has a slit where you slide the phone in and I have the audio jack running to it there. The plastic window stays lifted from the phone a bit so taps and swipes register perfectly. I got use to the buttons on the sides and can hit them perfectly as well. I think even if something came out that was made specifically for the captivate I wouldn't buy it myself because the tune belt is just about perfect.

really is a good case, I got it after reading this topic a couple weeks ago. Phone fits in very well, even fits in with the Amzer case on it (its a bit more snug obviously). The holes not lining up isn't a big issue, I put it in the other way (with the headphone jack up at the entry point).
As for performance, I did 60 miles on my bike the day it came in. (I was really happy it came in!.. 10 mins before we left) For the most part I forgot it was even there, phone stayed dry from sweat and a brief rain shower. Screen was usable as there was nothing in front of it, and once I dialed in on where the side buttons were inside the case it was smooth sailing there too. Was a good investment.

I just ordered the AB83 after reading this thread. Thanks guys!

Yeah that AB83 looks good, plus they show a Fascinate in it in one of the pics on Amazon. I've been having to hold my phone while I run lol it's scary always hoping the sweat doesn't make me drop it.

don't know if anyone is willing to try this out.
http://www.droidarmband.com/

I posted in the Vibrant and i9000 forums, but I got the larger version of the Tune Belt. It fits with my phone still inside it's TPU case which is what I was looking for. I think the smaller version would be too tight if you want to keep it in your case.
If you have above average sized biceps, you will need the extension as the band is one of the shorter ones I've seen, but luckily the extension is very cheap and works well.
Here are some pics.

Damn, too bad none of these accommodate a 18" arm I would much rather have my phone on the arm at the gym instead of in my pocket. Sometimes when bench pressing dumbbells I have to rest the weights on my quadriceps for a short time, but if I do that with the phone in my shorts pockets, then i run the risk of laying 70-90lbs on it

[Q] Credit Card case for Evo 4G (update: pics on page 2)

Does anyone know if there are any credit card cases for our phone? I was looking for something along the lines of the casemate ones that the iphone has:
http://www.case-mate.com/iPhone-4-Cases/Case-Mate-iPhone-4-ID-Credit-Card-Cases.asp
I have tried looking on google and xda and haven't found anything yet.
Any help would be appreciated!

Hey, sorry I can't help much, but if no one can find one, this would be a great time for me to make one up using CAD, I'll keep in touch maby I can make something up.
Sent from my netarchy_toast, froyo beast of a machine evo!

That would be awesome!
I would definitely order one, it seems so practical to only go happy hour with my phone, ID, and credit card.

Obostore.com sells a leather case that does this. Someone reviewed it on anther forum and said the cut outs didn't line up perfect but didn't get in the way either. Will only hold a few credit cards but I think that is plenty. I ordered one over a week ago and it should be arriving any day now. I'll do a review on it with pics when it arrives if you guys want. Oh, it is less than $10 shipped!!
Swyped from my supercharged Evo

That would be great! I can't wait to see your review!
I'm not a big fan of leather... but we'll see. I want to keep it slim and grippy. Right now I have a clear TPU case on my naked EVO. (no battery cover)

wow Obostore.com has a bunch of stuff for the evo.

Thanks.

Any updates on the review for this case?
Sent from my . Evo 4G using XDA App

I wish man!! Obostore is taking forever to get it to me. I ordered a 2000mah Andida battery from them about 5 days before this case and I've had it for around 2 weeks now. If it doesnt arrive in the mail today (12:30 pm eastern time at the latest) then I will call them or email them and see what the deal is. I am VERY anxious to get this case!!
EDIT: OK, I just looked at my account on Obostore's website and I actually ordered the case 11 days after battery. The case was ordered on the 13th, so it has been 13 days now. I got a good feeling that today is the day. Keeping my fingers crossed.....

OK, just talked to my fiance and the case came in the mail today!! Finally, cant wait to get home and check it out. I told her to open it when she said that I had a package come in the mail today. Her comment was that it looked nice and smelled like real leather. So, we'll see. Pics and my review will be here in this thread tonight before 12 Eastern time.

I cant wait for the review, this is the kind of case that i have been wanting to buy ever since i saw a similair case that my friend had for his iPhone

Nice case, but for some reason I can't stop thinking about the EVO vs. IPhone video.."does it come with a case?"

Ok guys. Went out for a bit when I got off so I got in later than expected. My phone is in the case now and I'm using it to post this. Pictures are uploading now. Just want to use it and play with it a bit to give you guys a fair first impression. So far though......Loving it!!
Swyped from my supercharged Evo!

Just realized how LONG this is..sorry
Well, in just before midnight . OK, so after using this for a couple hours I really do like it. The leather seems like a good quality, it does smell and feel real although I know there are some good fake/synthetics out there, so I really dont know and dont want to give you all false information. So I will just say that the "material" is nice and the stitching is well done on it as well. All of the cutouts, corners, and pockets are great. The Evo fits in it nice and snug, but not too tight where I thought it would scratch the phone. I held it upside down by the credit card side and shook the case and my Evo didnt even offer to slide out . You can see in the pics that my Zagg screen protector is peeling up on the bottom right hand corner and it did pull on that, but everything does as it has been this way for a few days now (just waiting on my replacement from Zagg which is in the mail). You have 2 slots for cards or I.D. on the right side (which are snug) and a compartment behind those where I will put cash(some in the pics for visual purposes, cash slides in there and is out of sight). Also have 2 slots for memory cards. A SD card and a Micro SD card fit in them perfect (as seen in pics). I was worried that the Micro SD would fall out, but actually I had to take my TP2 stylus and push it out. Not because it squeezed it super tight, but due to the design as there is a recessed area for the cards to keep them in place...Nice! In the center there is an area for a stylus or I guess a small ink pen. I actually may add another small hole and insert a lanyard in that area. The clasp looks like a snap button but is magnetic and latches very tight. Easy for you to open but it isnt going to open on accident thats for sure. You have access to volume, power, 3.5mm jack, charging port and HDMI port. Rear camera, leds, and speaker cutouts are very nice and lined up perfect!! Tested a few pics and the case did not interfere at all. Front facing camera is slightly interferred by the case. Also, on a phone call...the case blocks the proximity sensor so the screen stays off. I actually like that, and if you need to access the keypad in call, slide the phone up just slightly and the screen comes on.
Overall, I love it and I think it is unbeatable for $11.99 shipped!! I did not buy this for everyday use but for when I'm going out and want to keep my pockets light. I can carry this instead of my phone and a wallet. I think though that I am going to end up using this much more than I had originally anticipated. I'll let the pics speak for themselves in the next post.

If any one wants pics of something else or from another angle or if you have any questions, then just ask me. I think that after seeing the pictures that you all will agree that this is a really good deal for $11.99 shipped!! Like I said before, I bought it just to use occasionaly...BUT, I like it so much that it will be getting used a LOT more than I had anticipated!! Here is the link to it for any one just joining in - http://www.obostore.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=113 (expect a couple weeks for delivery)

Thanks for the review!
I had no idea the case was that thick... I was looking for something along the lines of the case-mate cases for the iphones. Its a big hassle to get the phone in my pocket as it is, adding such a buff case won't make it any easier.
Maybe, I'll have to custom make one or something...

Too bad there's no belt clip and/or loop.

I've been carrying it the last couple days to get a real feel for it and just because I like it so much. Its been a real pleasure to use and its been nice to leave my wallet behind.
The size is far from an issue for me, as thats what I expected from a case that would hold SO much. Also, I am used to an extended battery and door on my phone with a tpu case, so this is not much bigger really. It drops right in my back pocket without issue. My front pocket (uniform) is where I normally carry my phone, even with the extended battery and tpu case; but it will not fit while in this case. Overall I am very pleased, and it actually surpassed my expectations in function and quality. Hope this all helps some of you decide to either buy, our not buy this case.
*Swyped from my supercharged Evo*

damn that holds alot. I need a wallet, heh. great idea for a new one.

I got one question.... Where did you get the wallpaper with all of those little droids??????

Soundgate M2 installed and working great.

Hey guys,
After thinking of what type of mount I wanted, at a reasonable price to start, I ordered the M2 from Amazon. $10 can't be beat right now, except maybe by this frankensteined holder.
The main reason I need something other than the Verizon standard dock is because the phone is in a case.
So here are a few pictures of it:

Folded away its near invisible.
Standing up and ready for action.
The tiny nub on the back of my case.
Its very flush, so I can't even feel it in my pocket.
Phone attached. I did not supertighten the swiveling arms, so it can move just a bit. Gravity lets it rest on the dash and friction keeps it in place. And because I can adjust it a bit I can change the tilt based on glare.
I can rotate it both left and right 90 degrees. So I can charge if I need to.
Or have it stand up.
And here is the finished product. Perfect place in the line of sight too.
I just today saw the Proclip and if this does not work out I may look into that, but it seems so much more expensive for relatively little extra benefit.

I have the SG2, also. I really like it because it doesn't move at all. Just be sure to tighten the screws every 6 months or so. They back out a hair. I have three(used three different cars at one point) and I have used it with three different phones also. TP2, D2, and now the TB. I actually like your idea of turning it around to face the opposite direction because it seems to look better. I may try that. Great for watching CFB while on the road.

Double stick tape. But I did not use the one that came with the mount, I used some 3M control adhesive strips, so that I can remove them with no blemish. It is incredibly solid when mounted.
After a few days now these are my new observations:
The adhesive on the phone nub is not as strong. Or maybe its the soft feel texture of my case, but the nub fell off. So I superglued it back on with a small modification. I put it with the nub upwards, so I can just slide it into the holder and not have to twist it left/right.
I noticed the holder circle nub blocker could be removed, as it has a seam, effectively letting you use it as a slide holder only, but after a bit of prying it won't budge, so I assume its glued on. That's why I glued the phone nub upwards instead.
Works wonders now. And holy crap navigation by google is awesome. Never had a smartphone before, only a Tom Tom, and that thing is excellent. GPS acquires instantly and has no issues. It acquires initially much faster if I am moving, rather than standing still. I need to find a guide on how to use Navigation, and a good car dock app.

For navigation:
Push and hold search
Speak "Navigate to" (Address) or (Name, like "Pizza Hut")
You can even use general places if you just want a quick route to a general area, like "Navigate To Boston, MA" will give you a route to the heart of Boston. Once you get closer, you could just give it a more exact location. This is handy for long trips that you know you will be stopping at least once.
The Google car dock app is nice, or you may prefer the HTC Car dock.

Drop $30 on the verizon car dock for the TB, it works great, charges your phone and automatically launches your phone in to DOCKED mode which will allow you all types of things once you get to tinkerin'.
It seems logical to go cheaper but honestly once you start purchasing things for this phone you will quickly realize you may as well drop the dimes for the right stuff in stead of trying to find a cheaper solution. The cheaper solution never works as nicely as the OEM. of course

That's all well and good if you're using your phone naked, but for those of us who use cases, it's a no-go.

Right. I looked into those docks, but none of them work with cases. And I don't want a windshield mounted dock, as the windshield/dashboard angle is such that it does not work well. I tried with a dock for my previous phone, as well as my Tom Tom.
So while the dock may work for him, it certainly does not fit everyone's needs.

The GameKlip™

The new GameKlip™ is here! I started a new thread to keep things organized. Check it out here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2027611
Hello again everyone! I just launched an accessory for the Galaxy SIII (and other android phones) that you guys might be interested in! I've always loved playing games on my smartphones, but on screen controls were always frustrating. When I discovered the Sixaxis App, and native usb host and controller compatibility with the SIII, I had to figure out a good way to attach my phone to the controller. I came up with the GameKlip™.
I am a university student, and long time xda member. I've been tinkering with this project in my spare time and am now ready to produce them. I hope you guys like it! Let me know what you think!
More information and ordering info available here: http://thegameklip.com/ Starts at $15!!
Update: I shot another quick video showing how strong the GameKlip™ is. Take a look!
Update2: I have replaced the photos of the Galaxy S3 GameKlip™ with a cleaner, more accurate, representation of the final GameKlip™ (still hand cut). Its actually the same one I used in the video above! I have no issues pressing the buttons. The final version has the tabs moved up a little as well to accommodate for the bottom curve on most phones
Update3: I added a lot more information to my website. Check it out!
Update4: I just took some new photos of the production model! Notice the smooth cuts and plenty of room to press all the buttons. I have also updated the first image above.

Patent this tech before apple steals it and sues you!!!!!!!!!!

I'm looking at the pictures of this device and I don't see how it is secure? it is just molded hard plastic in the general width of the phone. The plastic touching the phone is smooth. There is no tensioning device to squeeze the sides. i imagine if i put my phone in it and tipped it past level the phone would fall right out. Thats probably why that phone and hand that is "holding it upside down" is cut and pasted out of its original surroundings. I would imagine that it didn't get picked up by Kickstarter because they know it will be the cause of many a broken phone. Sorry to be a downer.

The phone isn't cut and pasted in the balcony picture. I held the phone with one hand and took the picture with the other I used a fill flash to light the controller, which may be throwing you off.
The material itself has a little spring to it and is molded to be just a hair thinner than the phone. The tabs hold it very securely. I can hold mine upside down with my S3 and shake it without anything coming lose or falling off.

I was looking all around for a clip with no success. Even tried to talk a Gamestop worker to give me their display clip! Found this the other day but seems so un elegant. http://imgur.com/a/sRiLs Thought about epoxying a case to the controller, but glad I found the GameKlip before I went that route.
Hey Ryan when do you think you'll start shipping? Good luck brother, I'll be spreading the word.

Thank you! I put 2 to 3 weeks on my website to be safe, but hopefully I'll be able to ship much sooner! And thank you for helping spread the word! I tried posting something over at AndroidCentral and got perma-banned for it. Oh well, xda is better anyway

Ha ha, I just posted it over there in the Accessory section.

Why did kickstarter reject you?
And it looks like it works even with a case on right

Would you be able to make one for the xbox controller?
I just hate using the ps3 controller.
