So a long time ago I posted a DIY I found on lifehackers well today I decided to do one myself.
All that was needed was a garmin car mount
HTC evo hard case
Something to cut with
double sided tape or crazy glue
Here are the pictures
Good to see my textbook came in handy for something lol

Show off.
But seriously, nice work. looks clean.
Lol srry. Thank you. It would have been much cleaner if I had a cutting tool, I had to heat up the knive to cut the plastic. I must say that its the best mount I have came across, I would not think about spending that much money on the official mount

Nicely done!
thanks bro when i get in my car ill take some pictures of it mounted

awesome work. looks mighty legit!!!!
I love this mount. I made one last year for my Hero, and this year I made a similar mount for my Evo with the ball joint Garmin bracket(or whatever its called) & belt clip holster. I borrowed my friends dremel and cut/melted the mount to fit together, then glued it with plastic weld. The one for the Evo I also bought a Garmin cigarette lighter dock, so i can now mount my phone on the windshield or near my stereo. I plan on posting up pictures in the near future.
Yeppz, the case I used was an evo beltclip I find it easier to release the phone from the dock unlike the snap on case. So far this beats all the mounts including the high end ones

well done thank you
Followed the pics and did this too, it's win.
Going to see if I can find a permanent base for my cars dash though. Works great attached to the window just too distracting for me because of how the car's setup.
Looks great, but for EVO owners going foward, you might want to look into this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/WINDSCREEN-CAR-...Accessories&hash=item483f2e94ff#ht_4457wt_902
I bought one and it works great and only $3.97.
Again, kudos on your skills and thanks for the info.

This is a follow up to my 'Where are the car docs?' Thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1341625 )
Rolled the dice and I got this one:
http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=120801509015
To summarize my purchase: meh, it will do for now.
For starters, I have a mini clubman and there aren't tins of mount locations for a dock. Basically look at the pics to see where I put it. I knew going into the purchase that I might wind hacking and grafting the phone tray on to a mounting arm that I use for my N1 and then SGT.
One bright spot about this doc is that it isn't an exact fit tray; so it should work OK once I get a case for my SGN. That is, I don't think I will need to take my SGN out the case to put in car dock.

Dude, congrats on getting your car dock. But your title is totally misleading. Dock is spelled with a "k" (dock not doc).
You had me wondering what kind of car doctor you need to use a Note in a car.

The best kind.
Funny, I have a r56 and the official samsung mount for my note, have it in the same spot. Its .. ok.. I would like it to be a bit lower, it certainly broadcasts whatever I'm looking at to any cars in the area. I have the same problem, nowhere else to mount.
I have the official car dock for my SGT. The fixed mount arm appears same or very similar to the pics I have seen of the SGN dock. I couldn't find a good way to position my SGT dock on speedo where it didn't totally obfuscate the speedo. Thus I grafted the tray to a 6" flex mount I had from my n1.
I didn't opt for the real one as I only really want the phone tray and didn't think the SGN one would be any more flexible about where I could mount it.
So does yours totally block your view to the speedo and guages?
(I too feel near by cars can totally see my screen, maybe less so with my SGN than SGT)

Ya totally blocks the use of the speedo, gas, and warning lights. I use the tachometer LCD for sleedo. Its just to high and in my face, I don't really use my CD player so my plan is to ditch the suction cup and arm, use the mount/dock horizontally infront of the CD and just covering the volume a little. Zero idea how I'm going to do that haha but if I do I will post up some pics.
Small update : been using this setup for a week or so. . . Working well. . .
I got a case recently :
http://www.amazon.com/elago-Slim-Ca...ireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1324256424&sr=1-3-catcorr
I have to take a bit more care inserting and removing. . . But it fits this car dock setup OK. .

I have never been a fan of car mounts, I just hate putting stuff on my window and the suction cups eventually fail. I've seen universal mounts that mount on your air vents but those are big and bulky and don't have the OEM look and feel. So I decided to make my own...

Lol with the exception of my Q5 all the vehicles I have owned have had video playback. As a matter a fact, my first car in 1999 had a custom monitor. Turning the channel on the radio is a distraction. You should YouTube "Vic Gundotra Mercedes". So it doesn't matter if your watching TV or not.

I got the car mount that fits in the CD player. Works awesome, best I've ever owned for any device. Very high quality. Easy to use. Vertical or horizontal. Also CD player in my car is at just the right height, I don't like the mounts for dash or windows.

That looks great! How well does it fit with your phone? I was never a fan of universal mounts, just because they tend to be bulky since they have to be a "one size fits all" solution. I prefer more of an OEM approach where its as slim as possible. I do like your setup though, thanks for sharing +1

Honestly it fits nice and snug. Also great because I can use any size case I want. The mount rotates 360 degrees and has padded clamps for the phone with an easy access eject button. For being an unheard brand, its definitely high quality and extremely durable/sturdy. I'd recommend it to anyone with a smart phone.

I've used the Mountek mounts now for nearly 2 years. Had it for my droidx. Also have other family members using it for the iPhone and GPS devices, etc. They work great and also allow a certain degree of angulation - maybe 15 degrees or so in addition to the 360 degree swivel feature. Can be used with any case and also leave the camera free for use if required.
That looks really good. I think I'm going to try and do something like that with my Pro Clips mount. I want to order the Nexus holder, but at $60 including shipping the thought of paying that makes me wanna puke.
I like the looks of the mount by the OP but with a case on the phone, it won't work. I bought the Arkon unit a few months ago and it is nice but big. The CD slot mount looks neat but does it does it hurt the slot opening in any way? There is usually a felt lining on the cd opening?

great work however having cold AC going over the hot CPU or GPU is not a good idea because condensation can build up and lead to corrosion over time.
Its why people don't cool there desktop computers with external air conditioners, if its just the fan blowing its fine.

Actually, The AC is de-humidified. That is why many de-foggers also turn the AC on with the heat to clear the windshield.
The CD player will not be harmed. There are 4 teeth that stick into the CD player only about a half an inch, not far enough to hurt the CD player. There is a knob on the bottom of the unit that you twist to tighten the grip of the teeth. Basically when tightening, two teeth are forced up and two down to make sure the harness is sturdy. The teeth are basically a soft plastic.

That's what I'm going to try. Bracketron offers several different AMPs to ball mount plates. I'd post a link but this is literally my first post.
I'm hoping one of those ball plates will fit into the GNex mount. I also bought short (2-3") 3.5mm audio and micro USB charging cables that I will then try bonding/fiberglassing to the cradle so I don't have to plug them in every time. And then cutting the top of the stupid mount off so I can slide the phone in from the top
Folks can anyone recommend a decent car mount for the note? I don't want to use any adhesive or suction cup types since I am scared of those falling off.
Thanks

the official samsung units have an amazing suction cup.
I had an official Samsung car dock for my P1000 Tablet, There was no way in hell that thing was ever going to fall off.
even sitting on the windshield in 40degC days (Australian summer), and cool night temp changes didn't move that sucker.
Hell, I had struggles getting it to release when I wanted it to release...
Samsung dont skimp on their kit... its why it costs so much more.
I have a proclipusa car mount. So I recently got the Regular Adjustable Holder with Tilt/Swivel here. You can get Proclipusa holders with the charging ports built-in as well specifically designed for the Note - but I wanted something I can use for future devices if needed. The adjustable holder works with my thin Rearth Ringke Slim case as well. I think I may need to add some extra padding to make it a little more snug and secure feeling. It seems to wobble a bit because the slot is a bit thicker than the Note (crazy thin btw).
I use a PHONEclip, which attaches the G-Note directly to the steering Wheel.
You can find detailed info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22252176&postcount=24
In the same thread also more info about the above mentioned 'breffo spiderpodium'
Went on Amazon, spiderpodium reviews were mixed, many found it to be very low quality construction.
That steering wheel clip sounds interesting, unfortunately I have a boxwave case on my phone. Probably wont fit.
Are there any US etailers selling the official Samsung one?

hahahaha!!! So true and so unintentionally funny to envision, in mid-air-bag-deployment-to-face-contact! lmao
I can see the coroner's quote now:
"There's a good chance he'd have survived the impact with no more than a contusion and a couple of scrapes, but the force of the air-bag drove his near tablet-sized device clear through his skull and out the back side of his spinal column in what appears to be less time than it takes a humming bird to make a single wing-flap."
hmmm, you have a point there. So it's a choice between convenience or safety, difficult decision...
To answer seriously, I've checked it on my car and I think that it isn't a problem. The PHONEclip is made from a very strong material. So in stead of breaking, I expect it to work like a hinge and simply turn over the top of the steering wheel.
Proclip = Brodit
IMHO
for all my previous and recent smartphones I ever used Proclip holders in my car(s)
The Proclip platform is specific to each car model and the holder(s) are specific to each smartphone. I am using active holders with charging and I am very satisfied with it every time.
No excluding with my newest Samsung Galaxy Note too
I have the Samsung Car mount, and I am very disappointed.
It is a pain to insert the phone in the very tight clips, then you have to slide the usb connector into the phone, an exercise that takes two hands.
Further it does not accomodate even the very thin Samsung flip cover.
It forces the phone into car mode, which requires voice input - which does not work. - at least with my voice. I cannot call 'Nora' it will only find Laura - and I don't have a strong accent. It has no means of understanding what 'Home' means.
And now, after a month, it appears that contacts inside the car unit are flakey - the phone goes crazy when I plug it in.
So great phone, but they screwed up royally on the car mount.
So where can I get this Samsung Car Mount?
Mountek
Mountek has a universal car mount that sits in your CD slot for around $20.

Hey everyone,
I have tried many car phone mounts, but none of them worked as I was wishing.
Then I googled this keyword "minimal car mount" and suddenly found this interesting idea based on magnetic power.

I was also looking for a minimalistic mount for my phone. I hate those suction cup and dashboard mounts so I got the tetrax xway and I love it. It mounts nicely on my dash near and blends into my stereo. Having the little metal nipple on my phone is a bit annoying but the convenience of quickly and securely attaching my phone to my car is worth it.

They are using different kind of technology that doesn't create strong magnetic field. Each holder has 4 tiny magnets.

Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I've been using these magnet mounts in my car for a couple years. They have worked great on:
HTC Wildfire
Optimus 2X
Galaxy S3
Navigon SATNAV (much heavier than a smartphone)
Walkman MP3 Player
Anything with metal in it like a pen!
Nothing has ever fallen off even over potholes and rough country tracks. All wifi 3g bluetooth are unaffected but cant verify NFC as I dont use it.
The only glitch I spotted was that the orientation sensor on the wildfire didnt respond (if I turned the phone from portrait to landscape whilst attached it wouldnt rotate the screen), but the other phones didnt have that problem.
I love it. Even though my magnet is larger (about the size of a 50p), its discreet and effective. I would recommend to anyone.
I have always used the stick on ones not the clip on, but as long as they clip ok to your vent and you dont blast hot air directly to the phone it should be ok.
I use their X-Way model as part of my near perfect car mount solution.
So obviously, it all starts with the Tetrax X-Way. I mounted that directly to one of the vents in the middle of my car. It does block the vest quite a bit, but it's the perfect spot for me and doesn't involve any adhesive on my dash. At first, I tried attaching one of the little nipple things to the back of my phone directly. While this worked, it drove me nuts that I couldn't lay my phone flat on a table anymore. This became a problem when I accidentally bumped my S3 while it was sitting on a table and since there was less friction now, the thing went flying. So not good.
My solution was to pick up a dirt cheep slim case. That's how I ended up with the elago G5 Slim Fit Case. With the nipple attached to that, I could just slip my phone in/out of that and leave the case sitting in my arm rest compartment when not in use. Now I had the awesome form factor of my S3 and the ability to mount. So the next issue was the connection.
Like almost everyone else, I was using the cigarette lighter along with a curly charging cord that was 5x longer than it needed to be. Worse, the giant power wart that was now sticking out of my dash. Not only was this ugly, it was a pain in the but to store. What I really wanted to use was a small USB cable, 6-8 inches long, that could fit with my new case in my arm rest and a way to ditch the giant dash wart. The cable is easy enough to find, but how do I plug it in? With the Griffin Powerjolt Dual! While there are a bunch of USB port adaptors floating aorund, this was the first I found that would actually sit flush against the dash. This means I wouldn't have any stupid wart thing to deal with, the look of my dash wouldn't be thrown off, and since I don't smoke, I could just leave it in full time.
The big win in all of this is two fold. First, I could ditch the bulky plastic car mount garbage for a few thin and easy to store version. Second, I did the same thing (but with a different case) for my wife's Galaxy Nexus. Now we can both use the same mount depending on who's driving (or if we pick up a second X-Way, we can both charge and mount at the same time thanks to the dual ports on the Powerjolt) and save even more room in the car since we didn't need two giant device specific car mounts. The other minor bonus here is that the X-Way came with enough of those attachment nipples that I should be able to roll along for a few years using the same mounting system across multiple new devices.

Something similar to this. I stuck the large magnet to my dash and the other magnet is on my case. I've had zero issues with NFC. Bash cash mount kit imo.

So I got the vent mount version and it works great in my car. In my truck the clip does not fit the vent. I placed the circle towards the top of the phone like it says and it hangs in portrait. In the video it shows it going between portrait and landscape, it doesn't do that. You get one orientation unless you put the connector in the middle I would guess. Other than that it is perfect.
