Universal Car Dock?

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 the Skiva StrongMount today. Should have it by tomorrow.

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.

Sure. Just got it. Gonna try it out tonight.

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.

I dig it. Its been on my dash since I bought it and its fallen off twice, which I think is due to the heat from being in direct sun light for months.

Clean and solid car mount......

Thought I would share my cell mount that I got. I hated big klunkie mounts and buying a new one every time I get a new phone. I found these, one would do but for hard driving two lock the phone in place and nfc works fine.

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.

Samsung did a fantastic job!

The note 2 has had a great launch, there are barely if any complaints of hardware issues, the phone is fast, battery life is legendary, and they just added the multi window feature that everyone was craving for 5 days after the launch. Kudos to Samsung for an amazing device! How was your note 2 release experience?

The Note 2's screen is not narrower than the original Note, just taller.
How is the Note 2 less of a phablet than the original? Bigger screen, and it's even incorporating more tablet-like features over the original such as dual-window functionality.

screen is definitely an improvement, almost no black crush, and a very small amount of black blotches (when viewing the screen in a totally dark environment).
but: it's the same story as with all amoleds from samsung before:
you'll have the luck of the draw! it took me around ten (!) note 1 to find one with a decent screen! the screen quality
was different on each device i had seen!
same should applies here: one sample gsmarena got had a much more bright screen then the second one they got!
as soon as i got my hands personally on a few devices i will report how its with note2, although i guess it would be
the same!

I think I am getting used to the new screen now. I think the reason why I feel it's less like a phablet is because I have not yet rooted and so I haven't got the chance to change the dpi yet...;p

I'm thinking on getting that one myself once I get ahold of a qi cover.

Both seem to be good choices I love the airdock tho but its a bit pricey the Iottie is similar

I use the Kenu and absolutely love it.
http://www.amazon.com/Kenu-Airframe...=UTF8&qid=1406587453&sr=8-1&keywords=kenu+car
It's a little tight on the G3 with my Ringke Slim on it, but it still works a treat.

Not really trying to spend Air dock price but i honestly dont see any better options

I am using this one. It has performed flawlessly, and has the best air vent clip I have ever used.
http://www.amazon.com/UPGRADED-Wireless-Charging-Blackberry-Qi-Enabled/dp/B00F5XPCSC

You could try this one. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004G1L52Q I'm going to give it a try and post results later on.

This one is by far the coolest most intuitive one yet! Just got it for my wife's car and installed it in less then 20 seconds! It's sturdy and build quality is solid. Keeps her S5 with case safe and secure. It can hold any size phone. It's also low profile to where it's not in the way of anything like buttons or air vents! Try it!

Extra Pebble Steel Band Link?

Hey all! I just purchased a Moto 360 and slapped on the Pebble Steel band which fits with the 360 nicely, my issue is I have freakishly large wrists and the band is just a smidge too tight for my taste. It fits fine, but I prefer a looser fit.
Is anyone willing to part with a single spare silver link from their Pebble Band for like... $5 paypal? a couple guys on ebay are trying to sell them for $40 bucks which is probably the stupidest thing I've ever seen, and I watched White Chicks once.

I've got a single black link if anyone needs that. Sorry I couldn't help you out with a silver

How does the length of an unmodified Pebble Steel band compare with the length of the stock leather band? I haven't picked up the watch yet, but when I tried on a demo watch I had to use the last hole. For reference, my stock Gear 2 band is also in the last hole and it is uncomfortably tight on my wrist.

I honestly had to make another hole in my leather strap to get it at the looseness I like. It's a touch tight in the official last hole but not horribly. The pebble band feels about the same, maybe a tiny bit looser to me than the leather strap, but don't quote me on that as it may just be the weight difference that makes it feel that way.
