"Standard" 4-pin compatible car car mount plate? - Desire Accessories

I'm looking for a car mount "pad" for the Desire that looks like this:

This one is for an HTC Orbit 2 (the O2 version of the Polaris). I have the car vent mount with the 4 pins and just want a plastic plate for the Desire with 4 holes that would fit. Any ideas? Couldn't find anything on eBay - they are all either Brodit or some custom ones which only fit the supplied suction stand.
Edit: there seems to be an 4-pin adapter from Brodit. Anyone tried that? Looks like this:
http://www.brodit.com/productinformation.jsp?anr=202001&sortiment=s800

This is exactly the same thing that I've been looking for too. I too have a vent mount from quite a while back, used it with my MDA Vario and MDA Compact IV. There were many cheaply priced holders on ebay for these device but can't find anything for the Desire.
I believe the de-facto (or standard?) name for this type of 4 prong mount is Herbert Richter.
P.S. I have also got the 'Brodit to HR' adapter plate in your link. It works well. Only downside is that it 'bulks' up the mount. It is for this reason I am holding back on buying a Brodit type holder.

So this adapter plate is made to work with a 4-pin (HR) mount and a Brodit plate. Have you tried that?
The problem in my case is that the car vent mount already has a 360-degree joint, and so does the passive holder from Brodit. So if I use the Brodit holder + the adapter + my vent mount, I end up, as you said, with the whole thing having 2 joints, sticking out a lot and therefore will be very unstable, I guess...

I got the adapter plate for the same reason, I wanted a swivel holder for my Compact IV.
If you do get it, make sure you get the correct one, as I remember there were a few variants, specifically, an adapter four screw holes on each corner and the one in your link which has two holes top and bottom. I've got this one:
http://www.valuemax.co.uk/product_details.php?id=5771
But...
I've just seen this on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Car-Mount-Hol...UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL&hash=item4aa14e5b98
I know it comes with the suction mount, but it seems like it can be removed and put on to a vent mount.
"[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Clip the holder to your car's air mouth or use the suction cup to ensure the safety of the device on the windshield"
There are no pictures that indicate it does use the HR mount, but probably best to email the seller. EDIT: Looking at similar mounts from the same seller for the 3gs shows a picture of the HR 4 prong mounts.
I may order from the above seller, get rid of the suction mount, and use the device holder directly on my swivel vent mount.
[/FONT]

Yes, there are plates with the 4 HR holes and this is one of them. Unfortunately, this kind of plate is only good if you want your phone horizontal. I really don't like how the phone is attached to the pad - had such one for my HD2, it was a hassle to attach and detach. That's why I'm looking for a vertical slide-in plate.

[Q] ProClip Mount vs OEM Samsung Mount

I'm debating on which car mount to get for my Fascinate. I have a Zagg Invisibleshield on the back and the SGP Ultra Crystal protector on the front, so allowing for a case is not a problem.
Option #1) Samsung Galaxy S i500 Vehicle Navigation Mount

It seems to fit perfectly and there are some great pics here. It looks like there is a micro USB plug that activates the Car Cradle app but that's 100% useless to me since it launches all the Microsoft/Verizon crap. I'll be using Google Maps/Navigation anyway. I'm also not quite clear as to how the cradle itself gets power. The cradle also seems to cover the 3.5mm headphone jack, ruining any chance of me using the phone as audio input in my car (I don't have a Bluetooth stereo). The biggest plus? I can get it for $30-$40, depending on how lucky I get online.
Option #2) The ProClip Car Mount
http://www.proclipusa.com/brodit-de...cord-for-fixed-installation-513192-18363.aspx
Customized to the Fascinate, dedicated charging adapter that, with a little wiring, won't use up your DC port. It leaves the 3.5mm jack open for use. The drawback? The $80 pricetag, PLUS the $30 mounting plate you need for it. That's pretty pricey but almost looks worth it...
Option #3) Some other generic swiveling mounting clip
Any worthwhile experiences anyone wants to share?
Proclip 10000%
I've had 3 different proclips for different phones. Best mount on the planet. VERY well made and the vehicle mounts are made specifically for your car.
Not cheap, but very well worth it. I probably went through 6 or 8 mounts before finding Proclips.
Here are some pics of my iPhone cradle in my Acura TSX.

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b296/nunyazz/DSC00980.jpg
I just got my new Acura TL, so I need to get the vehicle mount for it, but I have the Fascinate holder and it fits great. Very sturdy, doesn't move around at all and just snaps into place.
Only thing is it does not have case/extended battery support.
I used this: http://www.amazon.com/Arkon-SM415-W...SE/ref=sr_1_18?ie=UTF8&qid=1295493610&sr=8-18
They do make an adjustable mount for phones with cases.
http://www.proclipusa.com/brodit-de...ces-with-or-without-a-skin-875214A-13978.aspx
But, the naked versions are much nicer as far as sliding the phone in and out.
Slide it in, it automatically plugs the charger in... Slide it out when you leave the car. No buttons to push. Everything can be done with one hand.
I have searched for years to get a reliable, easy to use and functional mount for my cars. This is by far the best one on the market. I've spent a hundred dollars on all the other mounts and threw them all in the garbage after getting the ProClip.
I have both of the Samsung mounts and the ProClip and I say ProClip all the way. I liked the look of the Samsung with the charger built in, but it is really difficult to get the phone out. I dropped my phone more than once trying to get it out one handed. Also, the suction cup mount on the Samsung mounts are the least flexible/customizable of any I've used in the past.
The ProClip holds the phone securely while still allowing for quick and easy docking and removal. You also can't beat the mounting locations and options they provide.
If you can afford it, go with the ProClip.
Oh and a side bonus is that you can access the headphone jack on the ProClip so you don't have to wait for Froyo...

Best car mount holder?

hey guys what do you think is better a vent mount or a sticky one for the windshield?
i bought from eBay an air vent mount, didn't received it yet, anybody here got the chance to use it? is it any good?
plus, do you think mounting it on the vent and turning AC cooling on will damage the device? i think the opposite because it will cool the battery instead of baking in the sun with a windshield mount.
I have used two windscreen mounts.
Both was broken whilst I tried to adjust the angle of the phone after mounting it in the car.
they were both having a quality worser than a toy.
In a worst case scenario the phone might not get any or GPS signals.
I have used an airvent mount with a few of my other phones. One great advantage is the A/C keeps the phone cool when running the GPS.
you're absolutely right.
air vent mount is the best.
i bought one from eBay and very pleased with it!
very solid and the device gets a cool breeze

Air vent is the best
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
yeah it is.
2 weeks and holding very good.
Also vent mounting gets me close to where I can stick a short unobtrusive lead into the aux of my audio unit .
vent mounts are too dangerous, if you break the vent your looking at spending a lot to get it fixed on your car, i prefer the exomount which is universal and sticks/ sucks to anything. You can even mount your tablet!
Windscreen mount is what I have. Works perfect and I travel so I take it with me! for under 10.00 and for 2.40 more you get 3 years warranty on it?! thats madness.

I bought Herbert Richter vent mount and universal in car holder from holdersandmounts.co.uk great quality holder for £14. Very happy with it

arkon car holder
try arkon slimgrip sm415
after doing a lot of research i found this one to be a good fit, you can access power button and volume button as well as rotate to different angles. Also comes with a handy plate to place on dash to attach to if you dont want to attach to windscreen (ie out of the way of view) It is universal so you can use it for other devices too!
If you're after windscreen suction mount, than Herbert Richter mounts are definitely worth every penny.
I had trouble finding a vent mount that fit my car as it had awkward vent shapes, I ended up going for a custom made Brodit Tilt Swivel holder that affixes to my dash, so now it sits in the perfect place and is adjustable, recommended.
It came in two parts, the custom made "arm" that fits to the dash, and the more generic holder that you fix to the arm.
Air vent is best.
And if it´s 35 degrees it´s cooling the device.
This might not be the best, but it's darn cheap and I've been happy with it for about 65 months! http://www.dealextreme.com/p/plasti...car-charger-for-htc-desire-hd-dc-12-24v-50845
The car charger sadly broke a while ago, but that is available without it also. I just ordered a universal usb charger and additional micro-usb cable to charge at car. Navigation consumes a f***-load of battery.
Definitely recommend Brodit mounts. Very solid and well made.

Ronseal!
well an extra request from my front.
Been checking but might have not checked enough.
Is there a holder, preferably HR, with a speaker inside?
Ive been using a CAPDASE Car Mount Holder and it seems to be pretty sturdy.
Would definately reccomend it.
I am also looking for a car mount. I will be going for air vent mount, due to temperatures and wont block the road. Can some one suggest good air vent mount ? I am also looking for car charger, which is best in terms of power delivery ? Is the HTC car charger CC C200 any good ? Or is there any special one for Desire HD from HTC ?

How do you mount your phone in your car? Post Please

This is what I use in my car. its a Spiderpodium, and they are incredibly useful. I had one for my Galaxy S3, Then I got another for my work phone (a tiny nokia lumia 610) and now t holds my nexus 4. Its stable, quick to slot the phone in and out and it is truly universal.

Great, seems quite firm. Is a adjustable one? I mean the size.
I use this: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-INFUS...S-V1B7BEGSTA/dp/B004WOBMIY/?tag=s601000020-20
Fits perfectly. There's a thread here too on how to mod it to charge faster (otherwise the battery drains a little during use.)

I use one similar to the last one you posted, 10$ from ebay, adjustable in almost every way. Put the mandatory NFC tag on it (also from ebay) to automagically start your car/navigation/whatever app when you dock it.
I use an iottie flex 2. It's illegal to have phones on windows so I attached it on the CD storage door on my car.
Brodit Proclip. I use a passive adjustable mount designed for the iPhone 3GS with case (sacrilege I know). Let's me use my N4 naked or with any case from bumper up with only minor adjustment required.

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.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium HD app
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
http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=108&cp_id=10833&cs_id=1083304&p_id=10257&seq=1&format=2
used sugru to mount it closer to me (I drive a truck and can't reach the windshield easily).
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.

Not really a mount, but i hardwired a wireless charger integrated into the lid of the ashtray. sorry for the poor quality video. not sure why it's flipped lid works just like stock!

[Q] Note 4 Car Mount

Hi Everyone,
For this Black Friday - Cyber Monday I am looking for a car mount for My Note 4. I have a Spigen slim armor on and my phone width is about 3.5 inches. Way to big for my old iottie. what do you guys use?
Right now I am looking at the Kenu airframe+ but I think the price is ridiculous.
Thank you
http://www.amazon.com/Portable-Adju...qid=1417203083&sr=8-8&keywords=kenu+airframe+
anyone use this and does it work?
I don't think hanging a heavy Note 4 off of your AC vent is a very good idea.
http://www.amazon.com/Arkon-Windshi...8&qid=1417205916&sr=1-9&keywords=note+4+mount
What do you think of this?
What do you use?
Do NOT hang your Note 4 off your AC vent !! I broke part of my AC vent that way.
Buy the choetech t510 Qi wireless car charger from amazon. It fits all oversize cases+Note 4. Then use outdoor scotch permanent mounting tape and stick it to a flat area of your dashboard vertically. you get that from home depot or equivalent. its a grey tape with red peel off dual sided stickers.
Works perfectly.
I've been using the universal car dock from Samsung and it has been working great. I used a 50% off code and got it for 25 bucks so not bad.
Don't agree with you

I've been using Airframe Kenu Plus (search on google)
I've used it with my g2 and now with my note 4, and it's working great.
Due to the size of the Note 4, I would say a car mount would be difficult to use; the weight might break the vent; magnetic qi mounts-- how much support will the magnets offer? And for the regular suction mounts, I'm not sure how much weight they can take. I've been using a techmatte progrip car mount, and it worked very well for my iphone 5s when I had that, but now that i've switched to android (note 4), the phone doesnt even fit in the mount. I doubt the suction would be strong enough to support it anyway.
I use this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00408B7ZU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
with this http://www.amazon.com/iOttie-Holder...&qid=1417724512&sr=8-1&keywords=iottie+note+4
Working pretty good so far.
I am using the Spigen Neo Hybrid Series Case. http://www.amazon.com/Galaxy-Note-C...178&sr=1-13&keywords=spigen+slim+armor+note+4

Best carmount i found by accident while shopping at my local electronics store was called Magic Mount, it has several different ways of mounting your phone. but its all by Magnets, 100% safe. They provide you with several options of a magnetic mount i chose the surface mount, and a very thin metal plate that can be applied by adhesive on to the phone or case. 2 metal plates were provided to me with the service, one for a phone and one for a tablet or which ever device i choose. ill tell you this thing can hold really well. its great because I would always put my phone on my seat or cup holder, but what if they are both taken up by someone or my cups, then back in the pocket it goes where i can't change my music. id highly recommended this to anyone. its fast, easy, and no stupid bulky cradles.

Being that the bracket mounts to your dash with a 3M adhesive pad my question is what does the dash look like after removal?
No need to mess around http://www.rammount.com done!

Car mount recommendations?

Can anyone recommend a decent car mount? My dash is textured, so the suction ones don't work, and I hate the ones that stick to the windshield.
Does your dash have enough of a flat spot for a weighted base? That's what I use in my car (a Honda Civic). The base stays put and then I can suction whatever mount I want to it.
It's a 2013 Hyundai Elantra, so the flat surfaces are lacking.

I see two options for you, then.
1) A mount that clips onto an air vent.
2) A mount that has a rigid/flexible arm that sticks out of the cigarette lighter.
A CD-slot mount would be perfect for that dash since there's no screen/buttons/etc above the CD. Amazon has quite a few to check out.
Try the brodit website
For me.. I would get some kind of wireless charging dock..one that's attractive (airdock, the Samsung one etc) and mold it in to the trim. That fo-brushed aluminum trim to the right of the push to start button would be my spot. Pop off that plastic, run the wires behind it and mold in the mounting bracket using advanced wood putty (its called wood putty but the epoxy kind is plastic, very hard and strong) sand and blend..paint to match..bam a seamless transition as if it was always ment to be there =) ..that's what my projects always turn in to lol
The magnet ones are good if you are using a case.

I've had the Brodit for many years now and its brilliant. I bought one for my S3 and I can adjust it for each subsequent phones. Available on Amazon also but you do need the clip for your car and the holder for the phone. Worth the money.
May be you will like this product,
you can search ebay item id:201268839849
just only $4.59
There are lots of options if regular suction cups don't work:
Brodit makes custom mounts for lots of car models. You then have to buy the matching holder for your phone.
There are CD-slot mounts if you have a slot load CD player but don't use it.
There are suction cup mounts which work on textured surfaces like the iOttie one I just linked.
There are mounts which anchor into the 12 V plug or into a cup holder.
You can get a plastic disc that has a foam adhesive sticker on one side and a flat smooth surface on the other as a base for a regular suction cup.
As someone else just mentioned there are friction mounts which put a heavy weight on the dash..but those scare me. The potential for a heavy object to become a projectile in an accident is enough to stop me from considering that.
You can also use a combination of these solutions if there is something compatible (17 mm ball joint, AMPS plate) between the car mount and the phone holder. Hope one of those options works for you. I've had a brodit base with a number of things attached to it for the past 6 years.
I use the kenu airframe

The iBolt xProDock is my favorite:

I second the Kenu Airframe but you'll probably want the Airframe+ for this phone.

Is this compatible with the s6? I have one of these that I bought alongside my htc m8 and am waiting to hear back from ibolt about if it's possible to swap out the charging arm with one for the s6, or if I need an entirely new dock.

Can anyone recommend a decent car mount? My dash is textured, so the suction ones don't work, and I hate the ones that stick to the windshield.

The last dash mount I bought for my car included a flat plastic disk that you secured with the 3M 2-sided sticky tape. You mount the suction cup mount to that, and it's rock-solid.

I'm not sure if the Dock'n'Play functionality works, I connect and stream over Bluetooth so I don't use that feature. I just think that the holder itself is solid and my S6 fits fine in a TPU case. This and the previous gen, smaller iBolt are the two most solid mounts I've ever used.
