Cup holder car mount?

Hey guys,
basically what I would love to find is something to place into my car cupholder that would hold my phone while allowing both the usb power / and 3.5mm audio jack to be plugged in. I don't need a mount as such, anyway to hold it whilst allowing the cables to be plugged in would suffice.
I love to using the audio jack straight into the stereo, it works wonderfully as a makeshift handsfree. Please let me know of any ideas or possible modifications I could make to existing products to make this work. T
Thanks!!!

Would this work? It says you can connect cords through the base.
$6.95

It doesn't show as much of the screen as I would like but it does look like a very good option....I'd give a shot, one problem is no postage to Thailand.
Thanks though

Just search for cell-cup, it's sold everywhere... Amazon has a 2-pack of them for like $11.

I thought about that one too, but he said he didn't want a mount.

Well a mount might work, if it was cheaper. This one is for iPhone so I'd be worried about it fitting. It's not a universal type mount is it?

Motorola Rapid Charger Problem

I got a good deal on the Motorola rapid charger on ebay, shipped for $6. It charges fine and everything is good performance-wise, but there seems to be a problem with the micro-usb fitment with my TB. When I'm unplugging the phone from the charger it seems like it's stuck in there pretty good. Rather than just pulling on it and risking damage to my phone I just tried wiggling it out. That seemed to work and after about only the 5th use the usb end of the charger came apart and part of it was actually still stuck in the phone. Well of course I almost **** my pants because that's obviously not a good thing. I did get it out of the TB with no damage done to it, but now I'm confused as to why it's so much trouble to remove the charger from the micro-usb port. I see that it has 2 little hooks on the end and I don't see any release to push in as I'm unplugging, so what am I doing wrong? I read all the rave reviews on here and Amazon both about how well the charger works, specifically for the TB. The weird part is that I don't see anyone mention having this problem, can someone help me out here? I'll attach a pic of the charger just so we're on the same page here.

Yeah I don't know what the deal is. I tried it in my Nook Color when I still had it and there was no problem at all. So that would make me think it was the TB somehow, BUT... any other micro-usb I have ever tried in the TB has ever done this. I guess I just got a defective charger, I think I'm gonna try Amazon this time and just get another. Who knows where the ebay one came from. But the weird part is the hooks on the micro-usb end, I swear I think those are not releasing like they should or something.

Check it out! the iC3 look nice.
discount code "ROCK20", thanks "The One" from droid-life.com

That IS a great looking dock. If they made a pogo pin variant for the galaxy nexus, I would buy it in a heart beat.

Link isn't working for me. It shows the site but they list nothing for android for me.

Interesting, looks like some transformer ****.

Kind of spendy, but it's nice that it's universal.

yea, but the usb can slide to the right and u will have room for the 3.5mm plug. i think.

Does the micro usb rotate 180°? I have a couple of devices and want to know if they all could sit in the dock and not be facing backwards

[Q] 3.5mm input jack - problem or normal?

Hey today I've noticed that when I gently push the headphone jack cable/plug to the right (while holding the phone in front of me) the sound cuts off on the left headphone.
It doesn't matter which headphones I use, it always happens.
Here's a picture I did:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
However it doesn't happen on it's own (at least not yet..). It only happens when I pull the cable by accident (and then fixes itself right away) or gently push it towards right.
Is this a common issue in HTC phones? I've googled the problem and I see that Desire models had the same problem, well kind of, the jack was too lose after time.
Is this fixable on my own, or do I have to send it over warranty when it finally brakes (I just assume it will someday).
Thanks!

unless you can find the jack and are real good @ soldering you'll have to send it in for replacement. I have a few g2s in the family all somewhat old and none have this issue. I have heard of others mentioning it though. of course I assume you have ruled out the headset as the problem, trying others?

Tried 3 pairs of headphones, it's not a problem though, it doesn't happen on it's own, I've also asked my friend (he has the G2 as well) and he says this happens to him too but only on the original headphones. Until it works fine I won't be sending it for repairs (we can't really get replacements that easily where I live) - I can't afford not to have a phone for 2-3 weeks.
I guess that the metal thingy just resized itself while putting in some other than original jack plug into it. That's too bad.
Thanks.

Oh, crap. Same thing happens with mine, I though I had broken it. Guess it's common?

Tried it, but had no problems with 2 different headphones. Having the phone in tight jeans with headphones can cause some problems. I would recommend not pushing it around, as you might damage the rest of the circuit.

You will NOT believe this. I rooted my phone today, installed Mimi ICS rom.
The problem disappeared completly (I am 100% positive on this, tried to push it VERY hard a second ago). How the **** is that possible? Can anyone explain?

My Desire Z changes songs everytime i push that, it´s really annoying at the gym.

Huh I thought it was just me, or the particular jack I was using. Haven't tried it in a bit since I've been using Bluetooth.

Nokia 6 Headphone jack - possible problem?

Hi there. Today I tried for the first time some headphones with my nokia 6 (2018), and the connector is not straight with the chassis. Is this normal? Can someone confirm, please with your device? Thanks in advance.
Sorry about the picture quality.

Hi. thanks for the reply, so your's it's the same? Yeh, mine works fine too. I guess it's a design choice. Thanks again!

Mine seems to be the same. My phone also seems to give off a horrible buzzing noise when plugging into my car aux, so I am curious if my headphone jack is defective or if they really decided to not shield the aux cable signal.

Yeah I checked another unit today and they are all like this. I use Bluetooth in the car so I don't know. But tomorrow I will test that and let you know.

Also, the jack seems to be a little "mushy" and easy to remove... there's not real "click" when you plug your headphone... Did someone note that ?

It's definitely not mushy, and I feel a click when putting headphones into my phone. It does stick a bit out like on your pic though.

I think its to do with the way how the phone curves and so the headphone jack bonds with the body of the phone and not with the screen panel also i find that with my old head phones that have some of the copper worn off the end it tends to slowly wiggle it self out while with my more newer pair that has the copper coating present it works with a click still
I do however have a problem with the earphones that they give you im not sure if its to do with the update on the 02/08/18 but it cuts out and ill then have to unplug and plug the headphones back and it tends to make a really loud click i think its with the earphones and not the device its self.
