I agree, but I cant wait I need that for work. The car functions is one main reason I bought this phone. well besides the fact that it is awesome. lol
Frys electronics has one that's general for all smart phones for about 20 dollars I believe

i just boutght one of these http://www.arkon.com/ when i had my MyTouch3G/Dream. The one that hooks up to the bottom of the passenger seat. Just kept using it for the new phone. Their generic and i think they work well.
I'm hoping ProMount get a holder for the 4G soon - I love their dash mounts.
Just saw the Official Desk Dock. Very sexy. They said it would be available some time december.

Did he/she say anything about a car dock??
They were not displaying it. I didn't have time to ask. They were taking to others about Windows7 phones.

Hopefully the Car Dock will secure the MT4G phone just as well as the Nexus One dock does. The charging contacts on the side will mean that you can just put the phone in the dock (which is attached to charging) so you will not have to attach anything to the phone.
But....if the desktop dock blocks access to the USB (being on the same side) then data access will not be available on this phone while docked (just like the Nexus One).
Keeping my eyes peeled for anything at T-Mobile or ShopAmerica.HTC.com
Do we know for sure that you cant transfer data through the docking pins?
a hard car dock + an app like dynolicious would be killer!
Car Dock
These come up on the t-mobile website. I hope a better one comes out soon.

I have that 'myTouch car holder' one. It's meant for the original myTouch, and it kinds of sucks. It holds the phone just fine, and it's easy to adjust; however, the clamps have about .05mm of clearance between constantly holding the camera shutter button down, or constantly holding the Volume Down key. Really annoying.
Also, T-Mo opted to not include landscape support into the entire OS! So when you try to use the phone while running Navigation, your contacts are still sideways. So dumb...
I hope they really knock it out of the park with the GPS cradle. The Desktop Dock is kind of a disappointment / nothing super fancy.
http://www.clingo.com/car-mounts/universal-hands-free-mount I bought this off of Amazon for 19.99 back when I had my G1, it works very well but I get nervous everytime I pull my phone off because of the removable back, I might just buy another battery cover to permanently stick onto the dock and just pop it out and go
Nice find friend. Can you post a video of the device?
I bought the Arkon's SM325-S originaly. I switched holder with the
SM050-2 recently for the look. It's pretty snug, a little tight with the snap-on cover.

Hello all.
I love the ability to play games with a controller on my phone but really hate that I have to hold my phone or put it on a table. So I found a metal plate, measured the controller and made this mount for my phone and controller.
It is very solid and works well. With some paint and an hour of work it will look a little more pro
Happy "modding" your own controller kit
Youtube link below and some photos

That is a good idea.
Great job.
I like to see when done and painted.
What phone do you have?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
I have a SGSII. The good thing is that you only have to make the mount once and whenever you buy a new phone you just change the cover.
I watched you're video. I was hoping to see a tutorial of you actually making it.
I have a question, How did you attached the metal with the plastic???

The thread and thus the pictures above is about a year old and I have since replaced my SGS2 with a SGS3.
The design makes it easy to replace the cover on the mount to fit a Note (or any other device).
Pictures with the SGS3 can be seen here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29395051&postcount=197
My mount is my very own private fun-project and thus not for sale and I do not plan to mass produce it, but a new commercial mount have come up, the Gameklip:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1760595
It cost 15 $ + shipping. The design is rather similar to the one I made (tho a lot more beatyful ). Only disadvantage is that this mount is not universal, and thus do not fit all phones.
Anyone use a good Universal Car Dock that will work with the GNex?
Amazon seems to have a decent selection. I just ordered an Exomount. The have a demo video on their site and it looks pretty good.

I ordered a Empire universal mount. Don't buy it. It's advertised with GNex compatibility, the side arms push down the volume keys, even worse, It broke what I was trying to extend the arm. It was only $8, I guess I got what I paid for.

The mount is surprisingly small. The base has some type of sticky element that allows it to attach to multiple surfaces. I'll find out tonight how well it holds up on a car ride.

Hello Jerk82,
How do you like the car mount?
Thanks
I'm wondering if I would be able to mod this with my official GSM Car Dock. My case on the phone (a small/slim TPU case. It's really popular here, I just can't remember the name) has cutouts for the pogo pins, but my phone obviously won't fit into the car dock with the case on.
Something like this would be perfect if I could "enable" the pogo pins.

Which ones did you get? There are multiple options! This is DEFINITELY what I've been looking for!!
One ego for the vent and one fix, I didn't plan on using both but the car is a Charger SRT-8 and if I pushed the car I could make it fall off. Now in most cars this would not be an issue but I like to push it every now and then...

Okay so... the "fix" fastens to the back of the phone and the "ego" clips to the vent? That right?
The "fix" is stuck to the dash under the ego in the vent . All that's on the phone is the metal button that sticks to the magnet in the ego/fix they come with four buttons to choose from..

Alright. I'll be ordering later this morning, haha. Thanks, mate.
is there any options to use this to mount the phone higher up on the windshield like a standard suction cup mount? i really like the idea but i've use vent mounts before i dont really like how it blocks the vent and you have to look away from the road to see your phone.
Just a caution: The stick on variant doesn't like ALL dash types, no matter how well you prep. In my case Subaru WRX.
I got the fixWAY. I love it so much I ended up buying 3 of them, one for each vehicle
I got a car mount from dealextreme and it is quite good. Secure quite tightly and doesnt come loose as i encounter with other mounts.
Granted does not fit when i have my extended battery fit on the phone
Does having a magnet on the back of the phone (when mounted) cause any problems or raise any concerns for anyone?
Yeah that's been asked a few times no it does not matter actually they are 4 small magnets which produce the magnetic fields that holds the phone.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
Here's my setup with the Tetrax Fixway mount I like it a lot. I just used a case to attach the magnet to so I wouldn't have to stick one on my actual phone. It's much more convenient I can just strap on the case when I get in the car and mount it to the Fixway either landscape or portrait.
I searched on here already, but couldn't find anything about this.
I'm looking for a dock I could use with a silicone or tpu case (not a folio). I have a cheap 'universal' eBay one for my S3, but obviously it's a bit more complicated with the Note's proprietary charger.
Does anyone know of anything? I'd be fine with a stand that holds it up high enough off a table top to plug a normal charger in as well.
I found these two on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004NFNQWM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A6U7LGCOJZZG2
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003QCOKGO/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
I think this might be a better solution than a regular dock.
Any other suggestions would be welcomed!

Here are a few that may work for you, remember you can rotate the note 10.1 180 degrees and have the plug at the top and the screen will rotate for viewing.

How well is it working for the Nexus 5?
I've been using one of these Nokia dt900s for a year or so now. First on a Nokia 822 then a droid dna and now the nexus 5. I have had no problems what so ever, seems to work better on the nexus than the others because it still charges even when the phone is crooked.

I picked up two of these chargers on clearance at a local AT&T store in Austin, TX. Seems it's not a sale so much as they're trying to get rid of them. I got the last two in my local area. Check stock online and see if you can find any anywhere. I had read some reports about the phone getting really warm on this charger. I charged it last night using one and it worked great. The phone didn't have a hint of heat this morning. I'm very pleased.
