Transmission sent from a Galaxy S II, CODENAME style.
You could mount it on a motorcycle, however, it doesn't fit the epic I forgot that the SGII is 4.3 inch and our phones our a bit bigger. I really like to product so I will be modifying it to fit, wont be the best but its better then all the other ones that leave the phone out in the open.
Bought this a few months for both my son & I. It has a bungee to keep it from flying off over railroad tracks. Highly recommended.

Hey Polska
Don't know if you noticed but they do have a Galaxy S version of that.

Was just looking for the same thing and was surprised to find a thread here about it. Well not the bike console, but a stem mount solution that would fit my phone.
That thing looks like the ticket. I like the built in waterproof case as I carry mine naked.

Thanks I did notice but the s has a 4" screen which is even smaller, the volume and power might align better though. I cut out holes for the volume and power button obviously not as water proof anymore but really I just want it to protect the screen/speaker/front front from any moisture which it still does. I also had to modify the rubber lining because the screen didn't aligh with the screen on the case and I was unable to press the home/back etc buttons.
BTW I found my on ebay for $30 so if anybody is looking for one start there. It does not show the brand on ebay but its the same stuff.
Placeholder for now. I'm out and will search when I get home. This'll just show up in my subs so I don't forget. There's a member Miami_Son, he does serious off road riding and found an adjustable mount he used for the captivate.

oh the irony, i was just about to make a thread asking for recommendations for a bike mount...
@polska, can you share the link of the one you found on ebay? is it specific to the ET4G ?
This is what I got, again keep in mind the that SII is 4.3" not 4.5 like our phones and the buttons do no align
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-GAL...633177?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item5649389819
...but its the best I could find and for $27 its not a bad price.
Let me know how it fits, then I'll see about ordering it.

I'm getting ready for a motorcycle trip next month and bought a waterproof hard case from Ultimate Mobiles in the UK completely forgetting that the European s2 has a smaller screen. It will cost more to send it back to the UK than I'd get for a refund so Ivee been looking at modifying it, sadly I can't without making the case useless. The charger and mount will work perfectly for whatever solution I finally end up with.
I'm very interested to see if the ebay case works for our phones, if so I'd be all over it!

I may be blind but where on your bike are you mounting your phone?
And what mount are you using?

Just thought I'd share this. It was so easy. I couldn't stand how using the holder as it comes because it was always in my direct line of sight while driving. Its kinda dangerous to have something block that much of my view. So what I did was take the tab holder and took off the pivit part of it, slid it into the car holder I had for my phone and it fit almost perfect. It clips into the heater/AC vents.
I'll get all the info on it later tonight when I get home.

Yes it is. Combined with a phone holder that I bought a while back from Walmart for around $20. Sorry guys. Got busy. For sure tonight with details and a video.
Hello...i am looking to buy this one...could u please post some pics and may be a video?
Neat idea. This would be great if the tab was a 3g and you get a good GPS app. Or I suppose tethering your tab to your phone to use for gps. With a nice big screen to look at, it could make things convenient.
I'm desperate to find something like this, can you give detailed instructions for how you did that?

So I bought a G10.1 last week and I love it! I am always looking to get the most out of my purchases and since I always use my phone in my car (HTC Evo Shift 4G) I instantly started looking for Car mounting options. I found some big gawdy universal mounts, and a few really nice (but high dollar) mounts, then as I was walking through the local Walmart, something just happen to catch my eye!

Yes, that is a picture of those el-cheapo plastic self adhesive hooks, for $1.99 a pack. The gears started turning...
I picked them up, knowing the adheive was going to be junk for what I wanted to use them for (wouldn't hold to the heat/cold)... but I carry 3M Double Sided EXTREME Tape in my Jeep because you never know what you will need to mount to the dash...
So when I got home, I lined it up, and found that the mounting spots I was hoping to use matched perfect. At first I used all 4, but then took one of the top corner hooks off, making it easier to "slide" into the other three, yet still holding it rock solid. It covers the middle vents, so I closed them, which pushes the air to the other ones.
** NOTE ** I have a ZAGG InvisibleSHEILD and a Chinese bumper-style case from e-bay on it, this allows it to "snap" into place, and I don't have to worry about the hooks on the screen... Use caution, I am not responsible for you marking your tablet up.
Here is a picture of "Car Dashboard"... I was unable to find any other tablet ready Car Dock apps, but this one seems to work well for now...
One more with Google Maps
One with Google Music (I have it Wifi Tethered to my phone)
If you have your own mounting solutions, lets see em!
@TechJeeper
Neat. Looks like the ideal situation would be having black ones, put two pointing up on the bottom, one on each side pointing to each other, and then having enough space to slide the tablet down from above.
i did something a little different about a week ago. its a mount made for the tab that i modded with a phone mount that hooks to the air vents. its really sturdy.

The lip that hangs over the dash on the Grand Cherokee makes it impossible to slide in from the top... that was my first idea... but this seems to work well. I plan on replacing them with Black hooks in the future, but they were more expensive, and I wasnt sure if this was even gonna work.
The 10.1 is to big for my mx5 :-| im looking for used 7" tab to play around with. They look like i could mount it so it sticks out of the double din just enough to power and plug In
Nice, I've been wanting to do something similar in my jeep as well. Unfortunately, I dropped my tab (face first) on concrete yesterday and shattered the front glass.

Since you're using an alternate, stronger adhesive, you could cut the circle part of the hooks down to look more presentable while the tab is not present. Just an idea.
What did you use to make this mount? Looks good!

Not to be rude, but if you actually worked out and didn't just go for show...then you would know that having a phone , especially one the size of ours makes NO sense to use in the gym or out running. Go buy a sansa clip or something of the sort. It would prob cost as much as a armband case for this beast anyways.

Look up the Tune Belt AB85 on Amazon, that's the one you want if you want to run w/ the TPU case still on the phone.
I have the Tune Belt AB84 and use it many times a week w/ my T-Mo SGSII, but the AB84 won't fit the device w/ a case on it at the same time.
Great case, I run in the rain here in Seattle, it fits well and is very comfy to run with. Touch screen works great through the plastic cover on the case.
I used a tune belt for about a year, which my GS2 fit in. However it drove me nuts how it would build up with moisture on the inside causing me to not be able to see the screen. I switched to the ArmPod http://www.amphipod.com/products/holders/music/-electronics/armpod and love it. I know it shows the iPhone only in it, however it fits our phones as well.

It's replies like this that are useless. If you have to start your reply to his question with 'not to be rude...' then you're being rude.
The SGSII is lighter than the iPhone4 and works just fine in an arm-band. Why should anyone buy a separate MP3 player when:
A) The phone they have works great as a music player (especially w/ Spotify or Rdio)
B) The phone they have can track their run/bike with GPS. (and you can get a heart-rate monitor if you like)
C) They may take a phone anyway if they're running in the dark or a not-so-nice area.
D) An arm-band is all of $20. Show me a $20 16gb MP3 player...
...you get the picture. The SGSII is fine for running.

I use mine when I'm running/walking/biking. Very comfortable. Nicest one I've seen around. Unfortunately the larger model which fits the SGS3 only comes in black at this point, unlike their smaller units which come in multiple colors. hope this helps.
iGadgitz Armband
iGadgitz make a couple of armbands for the galaxy range. I have recently bought the black neoprene one off amazon. Not trying to sound like a **** but i have thick arms and it fits quite well. I went for a six mile run this morning and i hardly noticed it was there. The screen hasn't lost any responsiveness,(i'm not using a screen protector) but the power button and volume controls can be a little fiddly. Time will tell how well it responds to being washed, or if it ends up stinking like my last armband.

if any one has this mount, what is your opinion of it with the s3 and can you plug headphones into it as the jack is at the top of the phone.
if any one has any other suggestions as to a good bicycle mount then that will be great.
thanks in advance
I really like this one!

The thing I like the most is the place it's mounted in the frame of the bike, it stays more ptrotected.
Hope you liked it!
If you get a trident case they sell a good bicycle mount.

...of course, I missed that you wanted it to be waterproof. Well... I'll leave this here for others to find... and as a reminder to me to glean a bit better when scanning posts

i like this case but i am unsure about a couple of things.
1. is it weather proof ie, will it survive torrential rain on my bike
2. it isnt very clear about headphones. i read that there is a adapter, does this come with the case or do i have to buy this separately.

Here's the arkon SM032 on my Yamaha FZ6:

The case comes with 2 pads, a thick one and a thin one; the pics show the thick one in use, I like how it brings the phone all the way up to the plastic cover. It does make things tight, however, so I'd probably use the thin pad with headphones (I didn't have headphones on me when I took these pics).
It's a solid mount if you're using it for navigation or tracking; sometimes I like to you My Tracks to see my route and mileage. I don't use this setup for music when I ride, but I would think there's enough room if you use the small pad; there's a cable pass through slot on the case.
One other thing to mention is that the there's a screw on the back of the case where it connects to the mount, so there's no way it'll fall off from vibration or whatnot.
Here ya go, this looks a decent bracket and case for the S3

thanks guys and especially thanks to Shady Gambino for the photos.
i have recently started riding to work and have always enjoyed mountain biking through dalby Forrest, so when i get my own bike at the end of the month i will definitely be getting 1 of these mounts. i haven't decided yet whether to get the arkon 032 or the trident case and mount but i will let you know and give my opinion of which 1 i choose.
in the mean time if anyone knows of any other mount i should consider please feel free to reply as i will still be subscribed to this post.
thanks again
why would you want a bikemoint?
soooo you can mount it to your bike??
why would I want to mount my phone to my bike? here is what I "run" on my bike
icardio. mapping tracking and heartrate with lap and time etc..
music (going to my bt speaker also mounted to my handlebars usually playing a podcast)
backup light (in case my primary dies)
cycle computer software running (speed distance cadence etc.. etc..)
ability to take calls and see who is calling without having to touch the phone.
BTW SLIP GRIP has mounts for the S3 AND for "other cases" including my preffered case ology cases (impact case) and otter and a few others!! sweet!
sadly shady gambino you confirmed I can't use that case. your S3 is almost too big so mine inside its case will definitely be too big

This one is what i like most.

it has a goos size to storage other things than your cellphone. High quality fabrics and colors. i can travel in the bike with the GPS or other cellphone fuctions.
If anyone is still looking for a bicycle mount, today's groupon deal is pretty sweet.

$12.99 for the next 3 days.
I have a couple of these and for the most part like them. I fear they may break easy and find that my phone gets covered in dust when I ride rail trails.
I almost forgot accessing the home button while the phone is in the mount is all but impossible hi a lot dremel work should sole the problem.

Weather Proof for Road Biking
Hey guys,
I just bought this case and I have to say that I'm thoroughly impressed. Very solid case thats can handle the rain and long road bike rides. It also allows for headphones to be plugged in which is a huge plus for me. A little on the expensive side but if you read the comments, phones have survived drops at 18km/hr.

Hope this helps people!
Cheers,
