Brodit Passive Car Holder for Desire/Nexus - Desire Accessories

As there is no bordit car holder for desire available yet, I was wondering if the holder for nexus will fit Desire as they are same size and shape? I am talking about the passive holder, so there is no issue of charging/microUSB position etc.
Anyone has tried this option so far?

I asked the same question, apparently the nexus one will not fit the desire, dsldevelopments.com will soon be stocking the brodit for the desire.

I have ordered the Nexus Brodit mount and it in fact does not fit as the Desire is 0.5mm wider and thicker.
So i have now ordered the Desire one from morpethmobiles.co.uk and should be receiving early next week so will post some pics

Are you sure they have it in stock? I had understood Brodit haven't released it yet.
EDIT: A Google search on the Brodit part number they have used 511126 show it also for the Nexus One, so I don't think this is the new one specially for the Desire. car-mounts.co.uk are doing the same thing, using the same part number for both phones.

I bought the passive holder from Brodit (the one for the Nexus) and it fits perfectly the Desire!
Regards

I am very curious when the active holder will be available for the Desire. It seems like part no. 512116 is used for it, but that is the same as the one for the Nexus One..

Hi,
As per my lengthy post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=664197&page=4
I strongly advise against ordering an Active one as suppliers are in fact delivering a Nexus One Active holder, not a true HTC Desire Active holder.
To summarise my other post, the charger part of it will NOT fit the HTC Desire unless you're prepared to modify it.

Guys,
Check out item 512141 on brodits website.
Its coming and I cant wait.

http://www.brodit.com/productinformation.jsp?anr=512141
Hopefully they will do the proper install version like the Touch HD had. Curly wire and lighter socket is a mess.. but I like the design of the holder.

I only needed the passive one and I already have the Proclip. Managed to get part 510126 from Mobile Fun. It is the Nexus version and I was a bit worried, as the Desire is slightly wider, if it could scratch the edges of the phone. Needn't have worried. This is the padded version so the phone does not rest on hard plastic. Very happy with it.

Brodit Holder for HTC Desire
I received an email from PDA Hut yesterday saying holder for the HTC Desire have been announced, although they are not due in stock in the UK for 7 - 10 days.
http://www.pdahut.com/store/product.php?productid=22522

My Brodit active holder arrived this morning from morpethmobiles. It is for the nexus one, but my HTC Desire fits really nice in it.
Looks cool in my Citroen C5

Do you think my HTC Desire with gel case will fit in the brodit mount or do the phones fit pretty snug?

They do fit pretty snug, not sure it would fit with a gel case, as my does not have any extra room either side.

Received my padded Nexus One Brodit mount this morning and it does fit well

When you say it's 'passive' does that mean it activates the car kit mode when you mount it?
On the Desire Navigator and Car Dock (is that what it's called) aren't installed although you can push them. I wonder if it would work the same way?

Thanks, is the holder padded at all? I can see the one above has some kind of padding but I am unsure if the desire mounts will come with it, hopefully they do.

Passive means that it does not have a power connector, it just holds the phone.

Brodit active holder now available?
Seems the satus has been updated from "Coming soon" to this.
Anyone know where to order?

[Q] desire hd car holder

Hello, does anyone know where to buy a car holder for desire hd?
genuine - still not available, but you can buy some Universal Car Mount Holder, it will do the work jest fine
I ordered the HTC HD2 Brodit car holder as it has virtually the same dimensions ie width and thickness
Hey, can you let us know if the HD2 brodit holder fits ok with the Desire HD when you get it?
Thanks.
Yeah. Problem is though, when i get it
Is there going to be a good looking car holder from HTC itself??
not official yet, but we guess that htc will realse an car older - when ? - dono
Hello All.
I mailed Brodit and they dont have a release date for their HTC Desire HD holder.
I've used a few different manufacturers over the years and Brodit has been the best.
I would be very interested in knowing if the Brodit HD2 holder fits!
Regards,
Steve.
I e-mailed Brodit asking about the HD2 holder and it will NOT fit the DHD.
The HD2 holder was a very tight fit and the dimensions of the DHD are different.
Get your Dremmels out!
EDIT:
I have received the HD Brodit Holder 511198 from Morpeth Mobile.
Usual great service from Morpeth and high Brodit qualiity and excellent fit.
Regards.
Hope someone can confirm soon that the HD2 car holder fits the Desire HD too. That would make my (now) hard decition on changing my HD2 for a Android (Desire HD) or WP7 (What ever it might be) phone since I already have the active Brodit holder for my HD2.
Well I have been having a look at this hopefully it will be similair enough dimensions to fit the Desire HD.
I think you can't find better price
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.40745
Does that fit DHD? There are some millimeters difference in the sizes of DHD and EVO 4G, aren't there?

I've got a Brodit HD2 mount and a generic desk charger, which I'm going to hang on to until I (eventually) receive my DHD. I'll let you know as soon as it's unpacked, whenever that may be....

Don't suppose this will be possible, as the Desire HD is almost a millimeter thicker (0.8mm to be precise), and millimeter wider, too. The HD2 holder is a pretty tight fit.
not sure if the HD2 brodit active holder fits the DHD because of the power supply...what is it anyways? mini usb? I don't think the power port on the DHD is in the middle of the unit.....so will have to wait and see...

They're both micro usb, but that power supply does look off centre.. Might be ok on a generic desk charger, but the Brodit mounts are tighter than a Nun's chuff so I can't see it fitting one of them...

Expensive car mount alternative

So I want to put my phone flush to the dashboard. When I was using the Samsung Focus, I had a case that I used only for when I was in the car because I put Velcro on the back of it and on my dashboard. It stuck really well and I could still see everything on my dash. I don't really want to have something sticking to the windshield and my dashboard isn't really built for having anything sticking on top of it. Instead of a case this time, I was thinking I might be able to take the part that clips on to phones (with enough room for a slim case on the HOX) and just put the Velcro on that. It was a bit annoying having to swap out cases every time. I was thinking maybe something like the Car Mount Mobile Dock for Samsung Galaxy Note would be a good choice. Since I can't post any links yet search for Car Mount Mobile Dock for Samsung Galaxy Note on smartphonepedia's website. Basically, it's a spring loaded dock so it's adjustable. Also, it has these four holders that would only hold the sides so if I place it right there should be nothing blocked. I don't really feel like spending so much for it though.
Has anyone tried this before? As long as the mount comes with at least two parts, one that attaches to the phone then attaches to a mount, I would be fine with it. Though I would want something that isn't TOO flimsy either. Or has anyone seen a mount that's kind of minimalist when it comes to holding the phone? Too many universal mounts use grips that are too large.
Edit: Alright, so I looked around some more and found a few that seem like they would work. They are on Amazon: the LAZA Zip Grip universal car mount, iShot mount: mini universal holder, CYGNETT universal car mount, and the Clingo mount. The Clingo mount is the most expensive, but has anyone tried it?
Check out this arkon mount, it works with the one x. I've recommended it here before and people seem to like it; it's only $18.
http://www.arkon.com/htc One X/mobile-grip-htc-one-x-car-mount.html
Would that work with a case on, say an otterbox?

This particular mount I'm not sure, as I don't have an Otterbox case. I'm guessing it'll work with the thinner otterbox, but I couldn't say.
They have a version of this mount for the the Galaxy Note, that think will work with almost any case:

Has any of you guys tried this?
http://lifehacker.com/5747897/how-to-build-a-car-mount-for-your-cellphone-from-office-supplies
Thats what I use, no uglier or better looking than a hunk of plastic suction cupped to your dash and its probably free if you have a binder clip around somewhere
Arkon mounts are great, they come in almost any configuration you'll need for your vehicle. I have a truck, so I wen't with a floor mount. Placed the bracket one of the seat rail bolts, and It works awesome! It's right next to my shifter, and down lower so I don't have to reach up to mess with it.
http://www.arkon.com/megagrip/megagrip-floor-mount.html
I'll snap a picture of it if you want it.
EDIT: works with any type of case, and phone. width is fully adjustable. Just pop the phone on the stand, squeeze the clicking side holders in until its tight on your phone, and you're good to go. When you want it off, there is a button on the side you press, and it releases the side holders.
+1 for the Arkon slim grip. The thing is amazing and well hold almost any phone.

These are phone specific and great quality. Unfortunately, these are not case compatible... only skins on the phone.
I got the hardwired unit and did the installation myself.

Looks like they do make a case compatible mount also:

Also note you'll need to check for the part to mount to your vehicle. Since its a two piece modular solution, just upgrade the phone holder piece as you upgrade devices.
I've purchased PROCLIPS USA Mount for my Acura TL 2006, works great!!! :good: However, it isn't really cheap. I've tried many cheap mounts in the past and they are definitely not worth the time, terrible build quality.

Brodit S3 Holder

Hi all,
Just wanted to upgrade that after spending a fair bit on an iPhone 5 brodit holder only to sell the phone for a GS3 and purchasing a GS3 holder (for skins), I really did not want to splash out more £££ for a S4 holder if and when it comes out from Brodit.
So today I tried the GS4 in the holder. Because of the small change in height between the two versions, the S4 fits perfectly in the S3 Brodit holder. I use the holder for skins which has no grip from the sides but instead a charger port at the bottom and a spring loaded clip at the top.
Charges fine so no issues there - also I >think< the ciggy plug is 2a anyway so it charges pretty quickly
Give me a shout if anyone has any questions about it.
Oh the plug is not made to tell the S4 it's in car-mode so all that is manual. I have an NFC tag at the back of the holder that used to switch the S3 into Driving Mode so I can do something similar for the S4 instead of spending money on another holder which would only potentially add the auto-dock functionality.

Hello,
Thank you for you feedback. Can you post pictures of your Brodit holder with the S4 ? Do you have a link for the Brodit holder ?
Thank you.
I was about to post to see if anyone had tried the S4 in various S3 holders. I have a brodit setup in my car now for my old Nexus S and I wanted to upgrade it for the S4. I emailed proclip and they said they are working on the S4, but don't have a release date. If the S3 works, I'll get that now. A bonus is that my wife has an S3 so she can use it too. One issue with the case friendly holder is that it's $110. That's a little steep. I didn't have a case on my Nexus S, so I was able to use the normal holder that does grip on the sides. The S3 and S4 are a little different in this regard, so not sure that the S3 normal holder for $60 would work.
The other (cheaper) option I've been looking at is to get the iBolt xProDock for $40 plus AMPS mounting plate ($7) to connect it to the brodit vehicle adapter. Seems like there would be an extra step involved with attaching the charging cable each time, but you wouldn't have to connect audio by aux/bluetooth like you do with the brodit/proclip holder. It's also $70 cheaper.
Has anyone else tried the S4 in S3 docks meant to be used without cases?
sorry for the delay
So the one I got was part number: 512409 and was purchased from Brodit but of their eBay UK site (I'm in the UK)
It's the one that allows skins though works fine with the s-view case as long as you fold the "lid" back behind the phone. I had the same with the S3 with a similar case. Also has the charger built into this one and charges quickly without any issues.
Here are a couple of pics

Actually looking at this pic, it looks like the screen protector is peeling at the top, it is not and the protector does not even cover that bit. I think it's a bit of fluff in the flap for the case that's been folded back so don't worry :- )

Passive holder is already out, and so I'm guessing active holder can't be that far behind.
Must have only just come out but remember the passive one you linked does not allow skins or any type of case on the phone so if you have one, you would have to remove it to then slide into the holder.
The GS3 one I posted above allows skins - as you can just about see, I have the s-view case on but you can have the clip on cases too

I second this. It is small and easy to use plus most importantly it sticks to everything without leaving any residue behind. I have a textured dash and this sticks just fine to it. Previously I had a Motorola mount with a smooth disk stuck to my dash so I could use the suction cup mount. What a PITA to remove the adhesive from the dash.

Thanks for you information.
I use a Samsung Infuse car mount, it fits perfectly. I originally bought it for my Galaxy S3 4G but after I gave that to the wife I tried my N4 in it and it was a perfect fit, better than the S3 fitted in there.

I use low profile dual lock, its like Velcro but stronger and more durable, I have one piece stuck on the tpu case my phone lives in and the other on my Brodit proclip. A roll of dual lock costs about £5.
It is less obvious that it's a phone mount, as it leaves no suction marks on the screen etc.
I got this one

more expensive than most of the ones suggested, but this seems useful, since its magnetic...easy to attach/detach. the mount itself goes in the cd slot, so it's not in the way.

I'm looking for a vehicle mount for my 6P but can only find the universal type right now.
If anyone else is in the market for a non universal for one please post your findings here!
I always use a Dashmount bracket specific to the vehicle and a Brodit active cradle specific to the handset. Usually takes Brodit a little while after a new phone has been released to make a new cradle.
Yeah, I'm looking for one as well. The previous universal one I had is too small for the 6P. It will just precisely fit for my Xperia Z.

I've got this one, one of the best mounts I've ever found, super sticky gel suctioncup that stays in place forever, hot ass NM summers, cold winters, stays there.
Already know it fits because I put the verus case in it, fits perfectly. Automatic too, you push your phone in and the arms snap shut. Push the two toggles and the phone comes off.
Don't know anything about them, but I saw a bunch of SlipGrip mounts when I was looking around on eBay:

I have this for my Galaxy S6 Edge (The S6 attaches to it without a magnet but it comes with one).
I loved it. I hate those suction ones that go on the windshield.

Unfortunately,
I'm not going to use it with my 6P as I don't think it has magnets to hold it up and I don't want to use the strip as I want to show off that Nexus logo.
Alas, I'm giving it to my girlfriend.
I highly recommend a CD one like the one I linked though, it's nice and sleek!
I've been using this for a little over a year now and happy with it

Hey!
Do you mind taking a picture of that in your car or something?
I want to see how bulky it is / looks.
Happy to oblige

Oops, didn't quote you but I posted a picture of it in my car.
Check out ram mounts. They have a great selection that fits all types of vehicles.
Here's mine which is custom mounted for my MINI.

That mount setup looks terrific! How does the Ram mount connect to that custom arm. I believe the ram mount has a ball joint on the back, and I'm curious as to how you did yours up.
Pro Clips are well worth the money. 6p will be the 3rd phone that will go in mine. Still good as new.

Giving this one another recommendation. Have it in my Subaru for almost two years now.
It's very solid and sturdy.

Thanks! You're correct. My friend cut the ball off and drilled a hole through. Fits great!
Ram mounts came out recently with a modified version, similar to what we did but it also comes with a screw /nut set.

I use the same one and love it! Great for when I'm using GPS.
Kenu Airframe is pretty good.
I'm using it couple of years.
