So i want to use my samsung vibrant as a GPS in my car. Is there a car holder for this type of phone?/ Thanks
An ebay search will yield hundreds of results. Also, this has been discussed in previous threads. Just search for "car mount" in this forum.
Go to amazon and search for the brand Arkon. Its about $15. It comes with dashboard and ac vent mounts. Its much better than the crap my sister bought off ebay. It fits my vibrant with crappy silicon case nicely.

I have the otterbox commuter case and the car dock. It looks like it would almost fit in the dock except for the rubber surrounding the usb port. Has anyone tried cutting off the rubber to see if it would fit? I don't want to do it if someone has already tried and failed.
Thanks

I wouldn't ruin such a nice case for that reason alone. But I'm sure it would fit if you removed the plastic insert on the car dock. The Commuter doesn't add too much bulk. You also might need to devise a way for the top clip on the dock to secure itself.
It shouldn't be too difficult to remove when you need to use the dock, is it?
I have the Defender, and instead of purchasing the Car Dock, I shopped around and got a general car mount that was adjustable to be wide enough with the Defender case on my phone (only just barely!). Had to remove the rubberized padding, but fits perfect and can still connect my car charger.

Without the car dock you cannot access the car interface. At least not yet but perhaps people who root the phone will come up with a way.
Never looked into the Car interface. I use it for handsfree and also for the Google Maps Navigation app.
Haven't looked into the Car interface at all, what is different with that feature? Might have to consider digging into it hehe
Ok, manually running my Car Dock application without the Car Dock.
I am using Super Manager for my root explorer, and I used it to manually launch it while sitting here at my desk.
Will go USB and make a walkthrough using screenshots until someone finds another, easier way to do this.
Seen someone has written a guide for this using ADW.Launcher already.
Link here on xda forums using ADW.Launcher.
Here is my guide using manual launching and also setting up shortcuts using Launcher Pro
Hello everyone,
wondering if anyone tested this one yet, seems cheap and maybe too light to be sturdy...
Any input so far?
"dealextreme.com/p/portable-charging-dock-cradle-usb-data-cable-for-samsung-galaxy-nexus-i9250-black-116667"
no POGO pins
the dock is sturdy enough on the table, but the phone will only fit into the dock without a case.
what do you expect for $10?
I fancy the car holder. i fancy the case.
Can the case be used in the holder at the same time? The reason I don't use a case at the moment is because my Galaxy S won't fit in the car holder. Why they never make car holders to fit cases I don't know.
But the pictures and previews shows promising. Anybody know?
I would think the flip case would be OK as it replaces the original back panel, so the phone should be no bigger.
I would think the cases that go over the back panel would struggle though
I really like this Combo:
This is the link to a Crap SuperGrip Car Holder:

This is a Flexishield for the SGS3:

and here is a picture showing both of them together as you can put the phone in the holder with the case on:

I am looking at car holders but does not seems to be really good one for the new S3.
Even the original Vehicle Dock has disadvantages i think.
It looks like if you have the phone on the dock you can not use the camera for video as it is blocked by the dock. Any suggestions for good dock with camera not covered?
car holder is not a have-to gadgets,yet the Galaxy S3 Case is a must...
I forgot which site I saw this mentioned but I was wondering if anyone had purchased this dock and had any feedback to share. I was initially looking at the Griffin dock but the reviews were relatively uninspiring.
If anyone has suggestions for any other docks I'd appreciate that as well. Thanks in advance!
Note: I'm looking for a desktop dock, not a car one.
