Hey everyone.
I have finally joined the Moto X side. My Nexus 5 broke so I upgraded to a Moto X!
Anyway, I needed a dock for my phone, and had some wood and time, so I made a dock! I actually mad two. One for me and one for another XDA member.
Here's the first one I made (this one is for me)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I just made it up as I went along. The back doesn't look good, but on my second one it looks really good.
Here's the second (for the XDA member)
And here is the back/bottom.
Here's my Moto X in the first dock (before it was sanded and stained and finished)
And here is a terrible picture of the X in the second dock.
Materials used:
Oak wood
Glue
Red Oak stain (had a 6 year old can in my basement. Figured I'd use it)
Wood filler
Tools used:
A Dremel (hand guided. That's why the cuts aren't perfect)
A really old handheld sander
Sand paper
My super strength
Knowledge
All in all it came out good. I'm happy with the results. If anyone wants one or wants instructions please don't hesitate to ask!

That does look awesome!
My only question is that it seems like a lot of stress on the phones USB connector? Seems like that's all that holds the phone upright?
But amazing work for sure!

It is actually not as bad as you think, the phone isn't supposed to be used in the dock (except for touchless control through Google Now), it is a charge/sync dock. The phones are as heavy as they used to be and the Micro USB ports are stronger than they used to be. It really doesn't seem to hurt the phone to be balancing on its port. It also helps that it is in the middle of the phone. If it was an HTC One then it probably wouldn't work (the MicroUSB port is off center)

Are you thinking of selling these? I'd like a dock like that.
Looks great but a little support for the phone would go a long way to mitigating the stress on the connector.

Agreed. Even an inch and a half block behind it or something....to take the weight off the connection alone.
Not knocking it. It looks great! But I'd be a little paranoid bumping it or hitting it when I reach for it and snapping the USB connection.

Here's what I came up with. It was just a pretty quick carving thing haha. It does add a bit of support. I will probably be selling two versions, one without the block and one with.

That looks pretty good!
I'm no wood worker....maybe a deeper hole instead? So the device is kind of already resting on the wood behind it? Or maybe that would make it harder to plug in?
That block should take the stress out a lot tho!

I have a few more ideas. The only thing I see that could be an issue is case compatibility. The small block I did was just a mock up. I'll try more stuff! Thanks!

Oh yeah. Cases may muck up the fitting.

So I'm loving the phone but I feel like its too much for me. I had been using an iPhone 4 and a nexus s while in Korea. I'm currently in Germany and I was tempted by this phone. I was actually gonna return it but I guess there's no return policy with telekom in Germany? Any who, I might actually go back to the nexus s as a daily driver or even a droid pro then have the one x as my weekend phone. I blame apple for making me use to that tiny 3.5 inch screen lol

lolz... try use it a bit more. you'll get use to it.. you will feel uncomfortable to be back to smaller screen.

Haha priceless
I think if you are going to have a phone with several cores and so many features and basically act as a mini- computer then you should have a screen this size, this is just perfect not more or less just perfect and the 720p display is siiiiiiiiick
Cheers
Yea this phone being a power house was the selling point for me. The last phone I owned that was similar in size was the HTC evo which was a few years ago.

then stick with it man.
I went from wildfire( small) to
Nexus one( middle) to this.
I thought the screen was to big at first but now I'm not having a phone that's smaller again!

Haha, I've been going bigger and bigger too, each time saying it's big enough. iPhone (3.5"), SGS (4.0"), Infuse (4.5") and now the One X (4.7").
I remember when they announced the Dell Streak 5 and I thought 5" was ridiculous for a phone. Now that'd be a barely noticeable bump in size over the One X.
But at the same time, with the power these phones have, I've come to rely on my phone for a whole lot, and the extra real estate is very nice. The thinness makes it not seem so big. Plus with the bigger screen and 720p, it's actually not too bad to watch short shows or movies on.
I have to agree that originally having the phone, I started to find myself thinking it is far too big. However after nearly a month, I can't help but look at it thinking yes, this is the best sized phone ever. Its sick.

Its going to get finished, I just got set back a little. The paint is currently drying and I should be able to get the clear on it in a few hours. Here is what happened to it, if you look at the bottom you can see the finish looks terrible.
Yeah, I see that.
Can't wait to see what it will look like after it's finished.
Doesn't it just take like 10 minutes to replace that part? Because if it's not very difficult and time consuming, I'd probably buy a painted one from you.
I like the look.

Its like 6 screws and then it just pops off in one piece. I will paint one for you, but I am going to have to figure out if the clear I bought is tough enough. if its not, I'm going to have to figure out something else. I will have finished pictures up tonight or tomorrow. I love how it looks so far, wayyy better than the stock look IMO.

Anyone know of any backplates for the Galaxy Nexus, besides the laser etched ones? I'm getting sort of sick of the bumpy back that comes with it, especially after seeing my friend's brushed aluminum backplate for his GS3.
Any love for the G-Nex!?
Aluminum backplates cut out gps and wifi signal from what I've heard so I wouldn't recommend it. They're easily available on eBay.

Try taking it off and putting it back on. Start by inserting the bottom part first, then run your fingers up the sides to snap in the rest of the cover. Make your way to the top until all is snapped in.
I also have issues with the back plate. The lower left corner won't fit in! But the plastic didn't brake there, so I'm not sure if I need to replace it or not. Someone knows this problem?

Here it is. Just make sure to ask the seller that you want the one with the "Galaxy Nexus" printed on the back instead of "Google" because he sells different ones.

Notice in the pic that the camera attachment is not covering the phone camera!!:thumbup:
Full details can be found here:
Dubbed*DSC-QX10 and DSC-QX100, the two lenses are said to incorporate almost all the camera hardware into the lens body itself -- so sensor, image processor, Wifi and NFC connectivity and an SD card slot. As previously reported, the accessory attaches to the back of smartphones and connects over Wifi*(after being paired through NFC), allowing you to use your phone as an oversized viewfinder. Significantly, today's report says the lenses will support both Android and iOS, meaning you won't necessarily need a Sony phone to use these camera add-ons.

I think I'd actually be interested in something like this. I wonder how it'd work. Probably more than that though... I wonder how much it'd cost...

Would be nice to have a "don't transfer images to my phone" mode.

The video I posted in the OP isn't laggy at all. Think it's because they were using that Crapple phone
Can't wait to test these gadgets out..
I'm personally looking at the QX100...
I'll get the QX10 for my girl, so will have both!

They were using a Sony android phone for the bigger camera. It's the upload lag that I'm talking about. My old Digital Rebel which has a real moving mirror shoots faster than this thing because of that.

Ok I understand! And yeah slr will shoot faster. As it should. I already have one of those myself. And lugging around those are a pain, it's always strapped to your neck. Unless your walking with single poll tripod stick!
Think you're missing the point , it's nice to have that true zoom capability. Not digital zoom, but optical! That's why I like it. Nice & compact..

I was wondering if anybody had an experience with trekcovers from Amazon. Here's the one I'm thinking about oredering http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00GXKHV58/ref=redir_mdp_mobile?ref_=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_YyhXsb13Q1PAK there's no reviews so I wanted to see if they are legit
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Would be pretty awesome to have. It's not too too expensive. Maybe worth a shot? Check the seller's feedback.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
That looks awesome! I hope someone get's their hands on it to do a review.
I'm not a fan of TPU cases, but I'd give it a shot for this one:
If you're gonna go retro, you gotta go Generation 1!

They don't ship to Canada though.
I don't really like that they're not using real case pictures, but renders that are pretty crappy.

Yeah I'm always hesitant when there's no real pictures. But it's a case seller correct? Not just a random person.

Yeah they appear to be a case seller. Don't know anything about them though. Showing pictures of the real cases would at least make things a bit better.
iTALKonline are also a case seller on Amazon, and I've had nothing but garbage product the two times I got stuff from them. I ordered a few cases from them for my parents older Xperia Ts. The cases didn't fit at all, the buttons were covered by the front lip, so you couldn't even use the phones... Never buy from them!
Anyway, even if they are a case seller, who knows if they're any good. I like those retro Nintendo designs though.
those cutouts are throwing me off. can't tell what kind of protection it'll provide.

These types of cases are not for protection from anything. The most it'll protect is from scratches. It's just to kee your nexus 5 from getting scuffed up and look neat at the same time.
These are pretty sweet, but I'm really put off by the fact that there are so few reviews of their other cases. Maybe once my SAND starts showing some age I'll try one of these. The price at least is pretty reasonable

Guys don't even waste your money. This case is crap. Its pretty much a plain white case with the gameboy printed on it. I thought it would be one of them nice rubber cases for the iPhone but trust me its not. I'm in the process of getting a refund...yeah its that bad.
