Been looking all over the web for one, but all that seems to be available are the generic "one size fits all" type that cover the USB port when in Portrait.
Has anyone found one that allows The Desire S to be used in Portrait AND be connected by USB ?
Thanks
Yes, on ebay professional seller is rpas5404
mount car htc desire s
"support pour htc desire S" in french
Desire S can be used in portrait or landscape and be connected with usb cable.
the plate is compatible with the Herbert Richter mounting solutions
Herbert Richter currently does not manufacture the plate of the desire S
in France a seller is Cricel
For me, the best mounting solutions are made by Herbert Richter.
Excellent !!
Exactly what I was looking for - THANKS
Linky, for anyone else who needs one :

if you compare, you can see that this car mount is a clone of herbert richter product.
in this page, you have support for plate, suction cup, mounting air vent, support bike, etc.. for me it's better.

I had an entire car mount HR HTC TD2 and I still use my old attachment with the plate for the desire S.

Mini Arkon Slimgrip car holder mount for HTC Desire S
http://cgi.ebay.fr/Arkon-IPM514-Sli...4453?pt=UK_Holders_Mounts&hash=item35b20f9d55
You can plug the usb cable and it will be useable with other device as well.
If it can hep others.
it's a generic holder, not a special for Desire S.
Looks like a good find. Can you let me know how long delivery took, and what the quality was like when you get it?
Thanks a lot
Ive gone for the Arkon holder too but with the vent mount attachment. £12.95 in UK. As we have an iphone and desire s being used in the car this seems to fit both and also allow charging on both!.
Brodit do ones specific for the Desire S
http://www.dsldevelopments.com/brodit/holder/HTC+Desire S-Brodit-Holder.asp
Juste received the arkon .
shipping took 2 weeks but thé custom had opened the package.
It s working well with the desireS.
Very happy. Much better than the cricel one that i have for my hd mini.

I got two holder for my DS, both can charge,and the second one is better.
because the first one can not allow a phone with a protect shell or cover.
and you can take the phone out from the holder easily with one hand.

i made one my self bought one those lase shells from brando, didnt like it much, so glued (and screwed) it to an older holder for a dell PPC where the holding shell was removed. so all holes are free, i can even use the camera as it has a proper hole for it and sticks to the windscreen
Try to find original HTC car holder with charger - CU S470. The best one you can buy! Sorry for not being able to provide link since this is my first post...
I have ordered the car upgrade kit CU S470 for Desire S from the official HTC website yesterday, and got it this morning. i think it's the best choice for your device. looks good and works fine
After 2 different holders and no good fit, I decided to tweak my old holder: it works!
car mount for HTC Desire S
what about one of these? It allows access to charging port through side grips.
There is one on HTC market...
http://cgi.ebay.ie/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190564591456 this one seems fine. tell ya when i get it
so got it and guess what: it's perfect holds the phone safe, all buttons and connectors are reachable, camera works fine too.

All,
Does anyone know where I can get hold of a BMW car adaptor for the inbuilt Bluetooth system (you know the one in the centre console)?
I have just received a 5 series and cannot find a suitable adaptor. They exist for iPhone and Blackberry but not for a Diamond or any other HTC device...
Can anyone help me?
All the best,
Sam.
also looking for this snap-in adapter
Hi, have you found a suitable BMW snap-in adapter for your HTC?
I have a htc diamond touch and also looking for an suitable adapter.
Please let me know if you found one
Best regards
Bart
I've just got a BMW and am also interested in a cradle for a HTC Diamond or Diamond HD.
In the last 12months since the above post has anyone came across a suitable cradle? I'm primarily interested in using it to boost the signal strength with the external antenna.
The closest thing I found was this DIY guide: http://forums.5series.net/index.php?showtopic=60462
I'm reccomending checking out http://www.brodit.com/
I've just used it to buy mount + holder (Molex version) for my BMW 3 and TouchPro2
It's working very nicely connecting to bluettoth sysetm, and what's more important just looks nice
I know what you mean. I am also looking for cradle adapter for HTC Desire Z to put in original eldow space in BMW5, but it looks it is not existing.

nokia car holder
I have this Nokia car holder for my Mini and is perfect:
http://thenokiaguide.com/2010/04/01/a-nokia-car-holder-thats-compatible-with-the-n900-cr-114/
Very small and the best for portret (Garmin navigation) and landscape (iGO8 and Primo navigation)
Been looking for a universal car holder for a long time, don't want any mobile or car specific solution as in past 10 months have changed three mobiles (iphone => desire => desire HD) and three cars (Civic => Corolla => Accord)
So Bordit won't work for me.
I've short listed following, could you guys share your experience? Thanks
1) Dash Genie In Car Holder v2
2) Herbert Richter GLOBAL Mounts
3) Clingo Universal In Car Holder
Regards,
Faraz

I have it, and have written a thorough review on amazon. Check the link above...
If you want something a bit more custom for your car ie not something that is real ugly and sticks to a windscreen or dash (although I do like the DIY mount above), then the Brodit stuff is what you are after. They have mounts that will connect to most desirable places in most makes of car such are air vents, or middle to lower dash. The mounts snap in place. Then you can buy the holders which can be active or passive.
I gad one for my HTC TD2, cracking but also expensive and the mounts are car specific. However, by far the coolest and sleekest installation out there.
http://www.morpethmobiles.co.uk/brodit-active-holder-car-charger-tilt-swivel-htc-desire.asp
If it's suction mount you're after, than it has to be Herbert Richter, if you're after one installed, than Brodit. These are two of the best mounts available.
Can anyone tell me if the Brodit active cradles auto launch the car panel for the HTC desire. If not what options do I have other than the official HTC mount.
I am running LeeDriod 2.4 and that has an app called Car home installed is this the best car app?

Whats the "car panel"? I have a Brodit Active mount and an HTC Desire, but noticed no such app. I have a standard Orange ROM on the phone, and am not even sure if this is installed - what is it and what does it do? I haven't heard of Car home either, but they sound interesting.
If I can test anything fo you, I will.

Car Home is an app found on the Nexus One which basically makes your phone easier to use in the car, giving large icons which can be customised to show whatever features you want.
Here it is in the android market, https://market.android.com/details?...&rdid=com.google.android.carhome&rdot=1&pli=1
Sadly it won't let you install it on your Desire but you can get around that by searching for car home apk files.
EDIT, think i found the APK files here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9417201&postcount=9
I think igo is best
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
IGo is a satnav looking for a car home replacement. Went with the Brodit doesn't auto launch but managed to set up a locale to enable it.
You can set up the standard Google Car Home (see link above) to lauch when it detects a certain BT device. Mine launches when it sees the Parrot carkit and that seems to work OK. Maybe the same will work for you.
Dont forget that if you have a silicon skin/case on your desire it will not fit in a dock designed for a desire without removing the skin each time. I bought an iPhone3GS suction mount and it just about slides in with the Genuine HTC skin still on the phone.
Brodt is fantastic and with carhome and vlingo running things work just right for me.

Good quality HTC Desire holder. And very cheap also.
I can confirm this webshop is very legit. Only shippingdays will take 2~3 weeks to europe.
I've also bought a car charger at Dealextreme, but that quality sucked hard.
Thought I would share my experience with car docks for those who dont want to shell out a fortune AND have something reliable/rock solid.. I have spent a fortune over the years trying out all kinds of docks/stands/holders over the years. You name it - I've bought it.
While looking for another one for my Pixel a month ago (and whilst still using my 6p) - I came across a whole raft (on ebay/aliexpress) of el-cheapo cd player phone holders. Bought it as a stop gap.
Was very skeptical for something that costs about $3 at first but amazingly it works and is rock solid/stable and the location is perfect - at least on my Honda HRV. I never use the CD player in my car so might as well use that slot
I have this one but there are variations to the design on ebay...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Universal-C...ne-Car-Auto-Mount-Holder-Cradle-/331886418871
I have one just like this. I like it better than any other dock I've used.
I have something similar, but instead of a holder, mine is just magnetic - so its even easier to attach the phone. I'll try and find a link

Cool. Sounds even better.. Please do share the link.
I use an air vent mount for mine, it cost me £5 and does the job nicely, also it doesn't move around at all and can swivel and twist 360 degrees.
I had a bad experience with my last CD slot mount from Ppyple. It broke at the ball joint end.
I use to have a magnet mount with the Nexus 5 (love the built in magnets) but can't with the Pixel. I don't do cases.
I have attached images of the broken Ppyple CD mount

Yes - I saw that version and decided not to buy because of the joint. The one Im currently using is just fine. And cheap - I've got 2 in case it breaks.
Perfect with Android Auto now on the pixel.

Good to know it works, It is very inexpensive than the one I purchase. I'll give it a try even though shipping states an ETA of Nov 25 - Jan 2

There are lots of other sellers on ebay + aliexpress. I'd just use whichever one has this cheapest
I've used ProClip for quite a while now and they have just released their car mount for the Pixel Phones.
http://www.proclipusa.com/phone-holders/device/google/pixel-xl.cmsv
The one with the built in chargers have to be used without a case are a little more expensive. Oh, and I am guessing that it is just a USB A to USB C without any type of Quick Charge or PD etc.
I'm going to be getting one when my XL comes in.

I bought this car vent and it works great. Holds the pixel Xl well in a spigen case and does not interfere with volume buttons, plus you can access fingerprint sensor.
