9$ Dash mount doing the job

Couple this one with a Sprint charger , Clip it to the vent and you are on your way. It can be found at Target and Advance auto parts. Of course you can buy a 119 dollars dash from Seidio if you wish however this one if for simple guys looking for functionality and low price.
Later
Noteictures taken with the mean Sanyo 9000. That is a great phone.

I had one almost identical to that when I had my PPC6700Q, but it had a bendable arm rather than a vent mount.. needless to say, my car rides a little rough thanks to lowered suspension and the bendable arm broke, dropping my nearly new PPC6700Q on the shift knob, which happened to be made of solid aluminum.
Glad yours is working out for you, though

Thanks Mak, so far so good man. That thing has a good grip on the Mogul,it ain't going nowhere unless I flip that biatch again,but then I didn't flip any since I stopped drinking 5 years ago.lol

nice, so this is just the regular dash mount? just wonderin, will the mogul fit snuggly or will i have to stuff other things to make it fit?

hey Total:
This is a good unit man, you do not have to add anything . Just take it out of the box, install te clips and get the side arms to open up to hug the mogul tight since they are adjustable. No vibrations. Give it a shot.

good to hear. maybe i'll stop by my local target sometime this week. thanks!

is "Stype" the brand? also what department did you find it in at target?

"typeS" is indeed the brand. The unit was with other car accessories like wipers,cleaning supplies and others. I hope you find it becasue this thing does what's needed. A friend has one slightly different, little ticker and take a bit more space. I elected this silver one coz it is slim and looks kool also the bottom arms that holds the Mogul foldes up. Good luck

Picked 2 up today from Target for 5 bucks each. They were on clearance and it does it's job well. Thanks for the find.

Good move Will, I am glad to hear man.

I went to my local Target and picked up 3 of them for $8 bucks. Mogul fits well....
thanks for the find.

You guys are making a kill. Good job.

So, I think I found it at Advance Auto Parts
Does that look right?

The brand is right but the look is different, the back of it looks little fat . That doesn't mean it won't work. Are you planning on ordering it online or picking it up?

I think I'll pick it up to make sure it fits. I'll have to drive across town, but weekends are for this sort of thing, right?
Thanks.

Good idea man, hit Target if there is any around where you live. Good luck .

for those who were able to pick up this unit, could you please provide any feedback? thanks.

What those of us that have the extended battery?

bah, both target and the advance by house did not have this unit. advance had scosche units and forgot what target had. I will try again since at both store teh items were on "clearance"

Well we don't have a Target and the Advance Autoparts didn't have the OP's item but I found a similar one at Walmart for $8 that also works well. Its the Onyx XT MP3 Player / Phone Holder.
The vent mount one is $5 and I haven't tried it but the goose neck suction cup one was only $8.
Here's a pic.
Here's the manufacturer's link.
http://www.causa.com/store/catalog.asp?item=3127&lang=en&navParent_id=108&category_id=120
Holds tightly and the goose neck is fairly rigid with minimal bounce when braced against the dash. Edit: And the phone charger does fit nicely under the metal bottom segment. The buttons are all accessable even with the bar...
Of course YMMV....

Suction cup mount

Can anyone recommend a suction cup mount that I can use in the car? It doesn't have to be made specifically for the MyTouch, I just want to be able to see the navigation while i drive instead of constantly looking down at my cup holder.

I'm in the market for one too. I would like to buy it as a christmas gift for my Boss.

i third this!

I am using this one here:
http://www.amazon.com/Holder-T-Mobi..._1_3?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1259151227&sr=8-3
It gets the job done. The suction works just fine, have had no instances of it coming off, and my phone has never come out of the mount. The only thing is, be careful with the ratcheting mechanism... when I first got mine I forced it a bit hard without pressing in the release button, and now it doesn't always stay centered and skips teeth sometimes but still works.
It has an open space in the center of the bottom so you can still connect power/audio. It holds the phone well, has rubbery foam on the side arms to grip the phone. For $10 its worth it, IMHO.

Head over to your local large electronics retailer (Best Buy, Future Shop, Radio Shacketc) and look in the GPS and IPhone sections. I bet you could also order it through Amazon.
I have seen the same mount under multiple brand names there. It is around $30 in Canada, so figure $20sh in the US. The one I have is called the "Grip-iT" by Scosche. Allows the phone to be held vertically and horizontally, has a longer flexible neck to position it and a really strong suction cup mount. Also comes with an adhesive mount disk if you have to mount it that way (some places don't allow windshield mounts).
I use it mostly in a fullsized pickup with a stiff suspension and have had no problems with it coming loose.
The one I have is this one:
http://www.scosche.com/products/sfID1/337/sfID2/344/productID/1593
I would stay away from this one as it is a PITA (at least in my GMC truck, which has fairly standard air vents) to mount:
http://www.scosche.com/products/sfID1/210/sfID2/337/productID/1594

What ever you do don't buy the cheap Bell brand mp3/pda window mount kit. They are usually found in the discount stores like Wal-Mart, K-mart, etc. The clamp swivel is loose, it can't keep the phone up at a pleasant viewing angle. If you hit a good bump the phone shoots out from the poor grip and the clamp closing by the pressure of the spring. Ugh, pure garbage and a great way to get in a car accident.

Off both of what you guys found and use, are they universal?? Meaning as in, can I swap my sapphire with my g1 or other devices. I guess I should just be asking if the width is very adjustable and or can you change the angle from portrait to landscape easily?? Thanks guys. Just doing my research before I ask for one for x-mas

I have been using this one for a few weeks now.. It's actually very sturdy and becuase its made specifically for our phones, it looks sooo much better and very smooth compared to the other universal ones.
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170391719566&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
When you order, keep in mind it's coming from china..it took around 3 weeks to receive but well worth the wait.
It's sticks to the windshield like a champ and will not budge unless you use the release tab. Highley recommended for nav pruposes.

[Q] Streak sport armband

Hello,
Anyone know where i can get armband for the Dell streak, its hard to find one that fits 5" screen.
Thanks

LOL.....you are kidding aren't you?

dude......you need to go buy yourself an iphone so you dont go asking stupid questions like that around here again

I actually run in the mornings as well and have ALWAYS used my phone for my mp3 player when i do so, I would also like to know if anyone as found one.
My daughter would like to have her mp3 player back since i basically jacked it from her and wont give it back. Hers even has the micro sd slot so i can even listen ot my own tunes and i am not settled with her chick music crap. but it does not have blue tooth so i can use my stereo blue tooth headset that i have used for the past 3years. (i really got used to the no wire thing)
I also bike ride too and would love a way to strap it to my arm or somthing for that as well.

try a backpack... or one of those ancient things called a "fanny pack"
I suppose you could slip in under your sweat band...

I actually tried an old sweatband but it did not hold it very well. it would not even hold it accross the room.

have you tried tucking it into your panties
...just a thought

The problem with waist band type holders when jogging is that area takes a lot of shocks from landing feet which I think is partly why arm bands were invented in the first place. The Streak is too big to fit comfortably on the arm though I'd have thought.

Take a look at skiing accessory suppliers - a lift pass holder might work if you can find one large enough.

yea...i guess we will just have to wait till some company make one, till then we can't really use the streak while exercising.

Funny!
The funniest thread I've ever read!

" oh man i love my new laptop, i just wish it came with a armband so i could surf the web while im running"
in all seriousness though. a wrist strap would be a better idea since the phone functions in landscape. now that sh*t would be scifi. hell all you need to sort that out would be a rubber skin and some black nylon straps

Now that I would get.

What you need is a Cell-mate, Google it. Would be perfect for your needs and you can do away with the silly wires too then

what a bunch of obnoxious arses people have become lately..
I think I'll join in as well!
I'd quite like an armband for my streak, and it doesn't look too big on me, but then I'm not a 15yr child like some of the posters here are behaving like!
I use mine while exercising, i use it everyday cycling to work. I've taken to keeping it in a rigid sunglasses holder and have a belt fitting for that, but its not ideal although mytracks and mixzing running over bluetooth. Mytracks voice announce feature is superb.
But for navigation I need a better solution as I need to see the screen.

I don't understand what the big deal is here. I would like an armband too. Sure, I could get an MP3 player, but why? The streak plays MP3's. In addition to that, wearing it on your upper arm would work just fine with the landscape format...just lift your arm up a bit (as if you were looking at your watch) and it should rotate so that you can read things normally.
I got this thing so it could satisfy as many of my needs as possible. Using it at the gym to track my workout and listen to music falls under that category.

i was begining to think i was the only one that honestly was interested in this (other than the original poster) Thanks for chiming in guys.

I also wouldn't mind getting an arm strap, as long as it was designed well and not just a pocket that then wraps around your arm cos the then it wouldn't sit on your arm properly and would eventually swivel, loosen and then fall off due to the gap (phone being wide and flat and your arm being round).
I currently use a waist pouch fanny pack p*ss bag (its yellow ) thingy along with my bluetooth headphones and it works perfectly for me at the mo but then again, I don't run on the treadmills so I wouldn't know how it would cope then (I either cycle or use the Xtrainer). Still, nothing wrong with wanting an arm strap!

I was looking through PSP accessories for goodies to maybe modify, but the PDAIR flip case should meet MY needs. Long wait for it to get here though.

Give the guy a break.
Try one of these. Not sure how well it does with the weight but I attach mine to a camel bak when mountain biking
http://www.aquapac.net/ukstore/large-waterproof-armband-case-br-212-1122-0.html
I also use a bluetooth head phones for music so it can be sealed in. if you stick with wired head phones then you can half seal it in an still be secured

List your Recommended HD2 Accessories

So I've decided to make one thread for All HD2 Accessories.
The idea is for users to list or suggest some of the best accessories you've owned and used during your time with your HTC and give a brief recommendation.
Car chargers, cases, screen protectors etc.
If an existing thread of this nature already exists - I apologize, my intention was not to create another needless one.
Please just simply re-direct me to it by the link of the preexisting one and close off this one - No hard feelings...

I think it's a better idea for a thread than the stickied film protector that sucks.
Anyway, my recommendation is the Otterbox Defender Case

Same. I'm pretty tall so the size doesn't bother me at all. If I were tiny then I could imagine the extra weight might be annoying, but I enjoy having the ability to clip it quickly to the holster. I'm also now really fast at removing it from the case in order to get to the microSD card to load up android builds directly to the card.

PS3 Controller, better and cheaper then most bluetooth pads.
In car holder, I use a cheap chinese one works fine.
THB bury bluetooth connection / HUD, good in car, read your messages/call lists/make calls/contacts ect.

here is my suggestion...
I got the first Hard Gel-case that was available and did not quite like it because it was not really perfect fit. Than at one occasion I've read I think here at XDA a post that was pointing towards this case (pics attached along with ebay item number) that was really good good fit for tmobile US HD2s ... and - ordered, and have it since... the best fit so far and serves me well.
ebay item number is: 330485183615

Hi,
Would you kind forumers give me some good suggestions on possible physical keyboard accessories that fits the HTC HD2 on an Android ROM?
I have been looking at a few and am still looking. I bought an old Freedom Pro Keyboard and found it a bit unstable to use (keys not registering certain presses). So please recommend what you are using if possible. Thank you!

My phone never leaves it's £3.99 Wallet home!
I'm already on my second one (I decided to replace it after six months as it was getting tatty, and at this price I can't complain). What's great is that it serves my need as a wallet, keeps all my valuables together, adds little bulk to the device (in the sense that it's also your wallet ), and my phone looks as good as new despite my occasional clumsy droppage. Definitely a must-have for me.
While on eBay I just saw a smarter one for £9,99 which I'm a little tempted by...
My DREAM accessory would be a genuine, larger-capacity, same physical-size battery, ah but we can only dream...

So after watching a couple reviews, I'm liking the otterbox defender case and I'm giving it some consideration... Just thought I drop a line, see if any feedback is given on this (positive or negative)

1. mugen 2600 mAh extended battery (must have...GET ONE !!!)
2. skull candy ear buds nice and loud for 13 bucks on sale!
3. 2 16gb's + 1 8gb for music
4. zagg screen protector
5. when not using the extended battery i use a thin rubberized 1 piece hard case mine is actually navy blue not black

Otterbox Defender..a must have for my work. very tough but makes the screen a little less sensitive, a small price to pay for good protection, i wish it was a little more dust and waterproof though.
HTC Oem flip case simple, cheap and works well
Desk Genie Non-Slip Charging Desk Stand..brilliant love this stand, again cheap but works well, bought this for my TP2 and still using it
Vikuiti (TM) DQC-160 best screen protector ive ever used, easy to install, would buy another if ever i needed to but 6 months and so far i dont!
Andida "1600" battery, so cheap i dont care if its 1200, good enough for a spare.
Motorola HT820 Bluetooth headphones...Old school but work flawlessly
IO Play bluetooth music streaming car kit...got mine for £60, pairs first time evertime, good voice quality and full A2DP, which is more than ive heard said for more expensive alternatives of the feathery kind!
HTC Car holder i got free with my TP2..tight but just fits
If i didnt really need to use the Defender everyday, I would have bought and extended battery, probably the offical one, but hey...

I'm looking for a soft rubber case like the case I have for my i900 Omnia.
I've just ordered an HD2 and I find this sort of case is ideal for satnav because I change cars a lot and I can plug the charger in and the phone lies flat on top of the dash without sliding off.
I haven't got the time or space to carry a proper cradle, but this works just fine.
It's made of soft, stretchy rubber a bit like the inner tube out of a tyre, with some texturing on the back which helps it grip - does anyone know what I am trying to describe?

my pocket.

^ What he said + Vikuiti (TM) screen protector.

I know I'm going to regret asking this but who or what is "my pocket" apart from the bleeding obvious?

Music Bluetooth headset
My recommendation is Bluetooth music headset ''MW600'' from Sony ericsson.
Its also been called or well it is a officially accesiore for the Sony ericsson Aino.
Cant remember and find the exact typenumber that the MW600 have for the Aino, so its has 2 type numbers.

PS3 controller

You can use the PS3 controller with HD2? Is it possible to use another bluetooth/wireless controllers on this device?
I'd be glad if anyone could tell me.

2. Vikuiti™ screen protector ADQC27 (Same as DQC160, but now anti-reflective too) £10
3. A couple of cheap spare batteries (never had problems with them myself) £3ea

Bag Suggestions For Nexus 7?

So I have a large backpack for carrying around my laptop + whatever else but when I'm going somewhere casual & I only really need my tablet it's a bit unnecessary! What do you guys (yeah, guys specifically, girls not such a problem with just a handbag) carry it around in when you really only have that, your wallet, phone, keys etc?
Thinking of a really small shoulder bag/satchel type deal but I'm not really sure.

I got a small shoulder bad from Amazon - search for Brown Canvas Small Travel Portfolio Shoulder Bag (I can't post the link yet)
It seems durable and well made, especially for the price (10 bucks w/shipping) Holds my Nexus 7 with case, phone, cables, cards, bluetooth headset and WiiDrive.
I'm very happy with it. The color is more UPS-like than in the picture.

I've only had my N7 since Friday and not really been out with it, but when I picked it up from my mums on Friday I had my Notebook with me so I put it in there. When around the house I just put it in my jogging bottoms pocket or carry it in my hand. Will have to buy something more safe to carry it in other than using a pocket in the long run though.

I have this bag, love it, but it is more... surplus-build than anything quality. I do love and use it though.

My all-time favorite bag in history, though, is my STM Scout tablet bag:
http://www.stmbags.com/catalog/ipad-bags/scout2-for-ipad-shoulder-bag/
This thing is FANTASTIC. Seriously, it is quality product. I get compliments on it all the time, the padding is incredible. The only issue I have with it is its made for a 10-incher, but honestly, I don't mind because it can fit pretty much any case you could possible have, and carry plenty of essentials for a day-trip. Cannot explain how much I like this bag. In fact, STM in general makes awesome stuff, and their support is top notch. I lost the key clip, and they sent me a new one free of charge.
I have a bag problem, it seems
