brodit.se confirms car dock for Vision/G2/Z

The swedish car dock/phone holder maker brodit.se confirmed to me via email earlier today that they are working on a car dock/holder for the Z, but he couldn't say how soon it would hit the market.
I use a brodit.se for my G1, and I love it - so much better (both looking and functionality, i.e. it stays in place, guaranteed) than sunction cup solutions or ventilation clip holders.
̃ Christopher

sounds great! Can you get one and test it for me? =)

brodit.se tend to be pretty quick to make car docks whit chargers for htc phones. I'm guaranteed to procure me one. I'm sitting in the truck throughout the hole work day so I need it

then I have ordered the car dock with charger ..
http://twitpic.com/34p7xl 95,38$ delivery on door.

Got mine today, went for the Active Holder Tilt Swivel With Cig-plug. Early impressions are it's really solid and just what I was looking for, good quality charger with it as well. Would deffo recommend it to anyone who is after a powered car mount for the Z/G2
Got mine from DSL Developments who's service was spot on. Ordered 3PM on Monday, was in my hand Tuesday morning.

Could anybody confirm if it's still possible to put a phone to one of these chargers with any of protective hard or soft cases added? Or it just fit's in "naked"??

I would think you would not be able to get it in there with a case on, it's a pretty tight fit, and non adjustable.

Sorry, but it won't fit if there's any sort of cover attached, there's absolutely no additional room.

I found out that my new Z actually fits in my Brodit passive (no charger) G1/Dream holder, so I won't order a new holder just yet. For some reason they have chosen to not release a passive holder which rotates, which I think sucks - even though you're not supposed to text in traffic, I did sometimes, when stuck in traffic or at red lights, send of quick messages or emails, and it's so much easier IMO to work on the physical qwerty keyboard in landscape than the on-screen portrait keyboard.
The old G1 holder does swivel, but unfortunately the keyboard is not possible to open while the Z is in the holder.

Got my active Brodit holder a few days ago, fits the Desire-Z absolutely perfectly, and their matching car mounting plate is great for my vehicle too. Their stuff may not be cheap, but it's far-and-away the best on the market.
Andre

Do you guys think my DZ will fit in the Brodit active holder when it has a full body protector?

Sorry, no. Brodit mounts fit the phone just as snugly and perfectly as any of the covers do, but because of that they don't give any extra gaps around the phone.
Andre

I have mine for a weeknow. Fits perfectly like every Brodit i had before !!

can the desire z recognize if it is in a car dock when putting it into the active brodit mount?
I want to use tasker to enable gps when the Phone is in the mount.

Don't think so,
You could just say:
If not near home + charging then -> Activate GPS + activate car controls
or something

There's some stuff in the DZ user guide about the phone being able to recognise if it's in a car dock. No idea how it does this though.

I consider getting this: http://www.brodit.com/montering.jsp?anr=512200
I never used their products, so I have a few questions for those of you who already puchased one.
1. Do I need to buy a "Pro-Clip" designed for my car, is it already in the package, included in the price, or maybe I can just mount the holder as it is whithout other clips? It's not so clear to me how to mount it...
2. If I need screws, clips and stuff like that (as I see on the instructions) will I be able to quickly dismount the holder e.g. to use it in another car, without tools?
3. I would prefer the same product, but with a sucction cup for easy mounting on the windshield. Can I find a model like that, or a "Pro-Clip" for windshield mounting etc.?
4. Will I be able to use the audio jack, or is it covered?
5. Finally, can I adjust the holder position a little (upwards, downwards, left, right), or is it fixed? I understand that I can tilt it o have the phone in landscape, but are there other adjustments possible (with or without using screwdrivers or other tools)?
Thanks!

1. You will need a pro-clip for your car. Some online retailers bundle them in, you'll know because they ask you what car you're installing it in before you checkout.
2. You can get a Move Clip which enables you to slide the holder in and out of the pro-clip. For example: http://www.brodit.com/productinformation.jsp?anr=213005&sortiment=s800
3. Not that I know of.
4. The audio jack is not covered.
5. You can swivel it, rotate it, slide out the keyboard, everything. You don't need tools to do it.

Thanks for the answer!
So, basically, I install a ProClip designed for my car, then over it I mount the Move Clip, and on the Move Clip I mount the actual phone holder? Just checking to see if I got this right, so I can order those three products...
I don't like it too much mounted over the A/C vents, but the actual phone holder seems to be the best available. If there really is no choice to get a windshield ProClip, I'll go with the this Central Mounting here: http://www.brodit.com/montering.jsp?anr=852285
I'll have to change my car in a few months and I'll get another ProClip then, but still be able to use the holder - that is good.

i ordered the active mount from brodit and for mounting it in my car i got a car mounting kit with the possibility to mount the dock to the wind shield.

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
Duncan

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 ?

Vehicle Dock Mount

HI all,
Just upgraded from a GSIII to GS4. Now I need a better fitting windshield mounting dock. For the GSIII, it was general knowledge that the AT&T Samsung INFUSE 4G dock fit the GSIII and it did for the most part. I really like the slide up into the phone style USB port, so I have no cables to fuss with. I know there's Qi charging but I am not going there just yet..
The S4 barely fits into the INFUSE dock but it takes being very gentle and very slightly bending the dock for the phone to snap in.
I am open to other ideas... suggestions?

I am very happy with my iBolt dock. I purchased mine off eBay and the dash mount disk kept falling off. Oddly the sticky pad stuck to the dash but the disk itself would come off. I called iBold and they shipped me a new one without hesitation.

Looks really nice but 1) as mentioned I'm looking for something with a USB port that slides into place... which is much easier than a cable attachment. 2) I'm more of a portrait kind of layout person.

As for your first request, I agree and wanted the same but could not find one. I have however come to appreciate the design, as that cable is stiff and holds itself in place so it's easy to pop in place, or not if its a short drive. Additionally, I've found the micro usb port on this phone is very tight and I have difficulty getting it to slip into my home dock, it has to line up exact. Lastly, with the aforementioned design of the port, it would impossible to accommodate the plethora of case size variations.
As for portrait view, that is totally doable, it rotates. Anoter neat feature is that the camera is not covered so if you desire, you can snap pics or video of that &%@$ driver in front of you.
No, I don't work for, nor am compensated by iBolt, though I should be. Just a happy customer. :beer:

The Craigsdock dock is the best I've tried. It is slim looking and has built-in charging and you can dock/undock with one hand. And it has a charger, did I mention that? Not one where you have to manually insert the charging cable like the iBolt makes you do. This is more like a very-slim-looking Infuse dock but without the audio and bulk.
You can swap out the existing cable for a USB-audio cable or anything else.
Costs a bit, but it'll last a lifetime and works with all large Samsung phones from S3 to S4 to Note II. So you don't have to upgrade your dock every time you upgrade your phone. And it also works with all the bulky cases too.
I've tried all the docks from Infuse to iBolt to generic and it's the best I've used yet.

It sounds like a ProClip might suit you well. I have been using these holders with various devices for about 10 years. I don't have my GS4 yet, so I can't comment on these ones specifically. However, I can tell you to expect a high-quality product that fits the device perfectly. Check them out:
http://www.proclipusa.com/phone-holders/device/samsung/galaxy-s4.cmsv

This one's doing the trick for me, it's closest to the GS3 iBolt dock.

Hi all,
I've ordered the iBOLT xProDock. I'm sure it is fantastic and will certainly do the job. That said, it is quite expensive. This should hold me over until and if Samsung or anyone else makes a dock similar to the lovely Infuse dock with the "slide into place" USB charger.
This should also come in handy for those many times such as this that I get a new phone and am stuck without a suitable dock.

Another vote for the iBolt. Ordered it for my S3, been used for One +, One and S4. Great little system! And their support is great!

Surfing the Web a couple of days ago I come across this http://www.kickstarter.com/project...ergy-worlds-best-wireless-smartphone-charger

Exogear ExoMount - Best Car Mount I have ever used

I dont see may people talk about this car mount so I though I would post this here. I have been using this mount for over a year now and it has been great. I started using it with my S4 then Note 3, One plus one, and now the Note 4. Is also one of the only ones that lets me still using a case on my phone. I am able to mount it on my dash due to the way the suction on this is. Its has been great.
I will try to get pics set up of its soon

Looks promising. I'm gonna look at this Ram car mount as well. Haven't had a car mount in ages and I want one this go round.
Edit: Both look bad ass! Anyone have experience with both mounts for a comparison?

I never heard of the Ram Mount till today. I will have to check them out. One thing I like about the Exogear one is that once you sick it to something, it never comes off. I never ever had it come off during the time I had it on the windows. I now have it on my dash in my new car and its the perfect area for it.

I have the Ibolt prodock and it fits the phone and holds it really good even if it has an otterbox defender protecting the phone. One thing to note tho (see what I did there), is that you cant get audio straight from USB any more, you would have to use and OTG cable and an external DAC.
I used this dock since the note 2 days and its been great!

Sticking to anything is what is interesting me the most. The Ram doesn't seem to have that gel like suction cup. I want to be able to mount this baby on my dash, yet have the versatility to take it out and use it in other vehicles. Ithink I'm gonna give exogear a try even though to Ram has a lot of options and looks very cool as well. You could actually use either as a dash cam if you want. It looks like neither blocks the rear camera view. IDK.

I agree about Exogear. I've been using the ExoMount Touch CD Slot Car Mount for about a week now, and the thing is great!
Really sturdy, no sharking while driving, grip is tight, and the twists are really good too. Would definitely recommend to everyone who needs something to hold the phone in the car.

Granted I'm ProClip biased, but I hate windshield, vent, and CD tray mounts. To me they look like junk and not integrated into the car's dash. I ended up taking out my Sirius because having it and my phone on the center console was looking a little busy. But that's just me. And if you live in cali, you can't have things mounted to your windshield I believe. Don't know if any other states have that rule.
And sometimes ProClip doesn't have the perfect mount option for the car, but that can be worked around. Their adjustable cases are the best out there, especially since most of us are throwing cases on our phone. I see all these threads every time someone gets a new phone. I've had the same adjustable cradle so check the original Galaxy days with my Epic. And my Note with a slim case just fits. Haven't bought a new mount in years.

Yes, I use this Spigen case: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MAWRQR6/ref=pe_385040_30332200_TE_item
If you're worried about it fitting into the mount, don't be. There is still room for another layer of a case on top of existing case.. maybe even 2 more cases on top

Decisions! I was set to go with exogear but that Ram tho! Aluminum grade construction and you can mount your ball sack if you buy the right kit. I'd have to get a separate adhesive for the mount, but this thing looks rock solid.

That one looks nice... but I LOVE this mount!!!
Sticks to anything and is hard to even pull off. The mounting system is easy too... push it an it locks in place. I have had 2 for about 1 year and not issues. I used to always buy the phone specific mounts, but that got expensive.
http://www.amazon.com/iOttie-Windsh...414678126&sr=1-1&keywords=iottie+car+mount+xl

Because I lease my car I don't want any mount that uses an adhesive. If it's strong enough to hold the mount & phone it will probably be very difficult if not impossible to remove without causing a mark which would be considered damage on a lease turn in.

I have not had that problem. I used to move my mount from 2 cars and it did not leave any marks on the dash. The one I use does not use adhesive. Thats why the exogear and the Iottie works to well.

This is what I use and I love it! Note, it will not work with all cars, but it works with mine perfectly fine.
The reason I say it will not work with all cars is because I have a friend who has a '14 civic sedan, doesnt work because phone would end up being too high, another friend has a '14 prius which cd slot is behind the nav screen which slides down, I have an audi and it works perfectly.

I deal with people with leased cars all the time. They buy the adjustable holder once, and of course the appropriate dash mount for their car. The mount clips into crevices in the dash so no damage is done. When you turn in the car, pop the mount off, buy the mount for your new car and reattach the cradle. Sell the old mount on ebay to make a few dollars back.

I hope Ibolt fixed all the problems they had with their dock. I had one for my note 2. Then they updated their product due to problems so I bought the new one. The new version has problems to and would wear out. That is why I changed to the Exogear one. Plus when I had it on my windows, it would full off the windows on hot days. never had that problem with the Exogear. I like the Aux hook up on the ibolt but once i got a 40 Apt x connector I no longer need it.
If anyone needs a good apt x bt to aux device take a look at this.

Dont know if you have the convertible or not but.....
i picked this one up. going to attach it to my headliner (top left corner) instead of the visor. trying to figure out how to run a power cable up to it if i like it there.

I just get one of those sticky sunglasses rubber thingys, cut it a bit and placed it on my steering wheel base near the dash. And cut a little piece for between the speedometer and tach. Phone mounts nicely there, like having a built in GPS that can be seen right next to the speedometer. When the phone isn't mounted, it cannot be seen at all.

I just get one of those sticky sunglasses rubber thingys, cut it a bit and placed it on my steering wheel base near the dash. And cut a little piece for between the speedometer and tach. Phone mounts nicely there, like having a built in GPS that can be seen right next to the speedometer. When the phone isn't mounted, it cannot be seen at all.

I can't say that that is a universally true statement. There are some REALLY nice car mounts out there that are NOT iottie. I personally think that iotties are a little overpriced for what they are. There are equally good car mounts out there for a lot less of a price.

There is no equal when it comes to staying put on an uneven rough surface in -25c Canadian weather. Over priced yes but I'll take the peace of mind knowing my Note won't be lying on
the floor when I get back to my car or fall off while I'm driving.

3M double sided outdoor mounting tape does a better job in -40C canadian winters. and it costs a few cents.

I have used many different car mounts of all different costs, but this one is by far the best and not even the most expensive!
