Docking station horizontal

Hey xda team again,
Im looking for a dockingstation for the x1 on my desk. The only thing is it has to be in horizontal format. well, i didnt find any in the net. Does anybody know one? it doestn matter if it has USB doc, i just need something to place it opened on the desk.

Hiya,
at the moment there is no shop with a horizontal docking station
On SE-World.info there's a guide how to build a dockingstation Maybe in one or two months he goues into production.

well ive seen some selfmade variations but they look ugly xD
why dont the build one, i mean there is this great Holder for the car where u have a pivot function and u can even switch from horizontal to vertical etc.
this sucks :-(

I use Brodit holder, in the car as well as in my office.
Brodit have an adaptor (male/female sliding), wich let's you take out Proclip (the part that holds the PDA), from the part that sits in your car.
At the office, I have another female part, glued to a heavy glass photo holder, and slide in the Proclip suport. It works great!!!
Look for part number 213005 (2 females and 1 male), at www.brodit.com
Useful also for anyone driving more than one car.

well thats exactly what i meant. The brodit solution but actually its not the perfect solution.
hopefully they will bring out a REAL docking station soon...

Does anyone know where to get rubber plugs that fit into the Micro-B USB on the bottom of the HTC HD2?

I would appreciate any insight on this matter.
Thank you,

don't think there are any, thethickness of the empty spaces beside the contacts is too slim to have rubber parts slide inside, IMO...

The company that makes the ones above are currently getting the tooling,dies,and molds together for the Micro-B plugs but they are about 3-4 months away from having their first run. I was trying to find some before I get my phone to protect against moisture/dust from the day it was removed from the box.
Thank you,
Monnie

Interesting news, thanks for the update.
Oddly enough I stumbled across this via google while looking for the same thing for my Desire. Would you mind passing me the contact details of the company? If they're selling small quantities then I'll order some when they're available.

i think topi covers has what you are looking for. they sell both mini and micro usb covers. Can't tell if its type a or b though.
google topi covers to find their website.

will this do?

Lego Dock for Defy

I saw a similar dock on youtube (thanks for the author), it was plain and functional.
Made mine with a little more fun.
There is a lego guy "in control" when docked.
He is really enjoying the big screen!
Have to find a magnet to try the docking feature of defy. There is room for the magnet...
If you like it, build your own and hit thanks.

I tried that too but it don´works verry good becaus the usb cable pushed the phone out of the Dock

To do this you'd have to have some curved cable I think... or the dock could be a bit higher so the cable would fit under it, but then it wouldn't be small good looking dock, but a big block dock

how to make to show only picture on dock??
Thanks a lot

I did load that wallpaper as image with the gallery to make the photos.
So I did not make any automtism there.
I try to find the wallpper and post it here as I saw there was a request for it...

The wallpaper
And here it is...

Official Samsung Universal dock review

I got the dock in today after I ordered it from the Samsung site with the 50% coupon.
I had the iBolt dock for my S3 and was wondering how this would compare.
First off the build quality is excellent. The Rubber back and holster pieces are an excellent sticky rubber.

Even the suction cup is very soft and sticky. I was able to lock it on to my wood desk so tight it wouldn't pull off.
My only concern is that it wouldn't fit my Note 2 with a case. Not a problem. The Tpu hybrid case I made fits without a problem which makes me think everything with the possible exception of the Otterbox case will be the same
My case:
Big surprise to me at least that it came with the car charger. I don't ever remember it stating that on the website. That alone is worth about $15 online. I paid a total of $25 for the kit, but you can also get it on Amazon for about $33.00
Overall I'm very happy with the purchase. I always like to purchase OeM products for that reason. Hope this helped a few of you.

Thanks for the solid review

Have you had the opportunity to use it yet? I want to know if it goes into Drive Mode when you put it into the cradle and plug it in.
Thanks,

Yes I used it already. I don't recall it going into car mode

Get this remote control!

This little remote controls just about everything on my Android HU. They should have included this remote with my head unit, it's fantastic!
It's about $8 on Ebay or Amazon. It works great with Poweramp and most other applications.
It's a small black 2.4G Air Mouse with a red power button on center top and no keyboard.
Sorry I cant post images or links due to this forums restrictions.

waiting for the link !

I've got two usb ports on my HU, so I use one for my HD and the other for this remote. Works Great!

Was hoping it was smaller though - I want to mount it on the back of the steering whee spoke.
