No, it won't open wide enough to hold it.

this is an email i received when inuring about the mount
The MT5000 will not accommodate tablets, as the arms will only open 4.25”. We are working on an adaptor for 7”+ tablets and the anticipated release is late Summer 2012. Feel free to like us on Facebook or follow on Twitter, and we’ll keep you updated with our latest products!
Warm Regards,
Randy | Team Mountek

I'm going to buy one of these soon...

I'm talking to the maker of this : http://store.fusechicken.com/collections/frontpage/products/une-bobine-micro-usb
and they haven't tested 7" tablets yet.. Though since its 24" I don't see how I cant bend the wire to give it some more support on the bottom. I'm probably going to get me one of these!

I guess if you work at a desk and only use it to listen to music or video. Imagine trying to send an SMS or something with that thing attached. It just doesn't seem too practical for all-around usage.

that gps ez mount thing looks interesting. what would you use to hook up the nexus7 with?

It says it comes with three suction cups that would attach to the nexus 7

It may be a bit pricy, but I recommend RAM Mounts. Their X-Grip mount held my GNex through a rollover. If the X-Grip II and the X-Grip III hold up half as well as the original, then they are definitely worth the price.

Looks interesting but I gather you need to remove any cases to use the suction mounts. So if you all will have your N7s without cases then I guess this would be fine IMO.

Thanks for posting this! It looks great, going to buy soon.

Here's one I got at Fry's last week. http://www.frys.com/product/7133592 It's only $26.xx on Amazon, so be sure to do a price match to get the price down. It serves my purpose of getting the tablet out of the window and down where I can use its GPS functionality. I live in Illinois, and we have a rather vague law about things in the window that obscure vision-there's no real standard to be met for what constitutes a violation, so it's a discretionary call. This was brought to attention 10 years ago when a widow in a Chicago suburb get a ticket for having rosary beads on her mirror.

The Arkon mount works for me, you can get it on Amazon.

again defected..

So guys I finally bought n7 today (launch day) I checked n7 for any issues it could had. Screen was ok, multitouch looked nice also...but when I filled it with some apps it just crashed to boot screen two times. First time hard reset - vol.down+power worked. Second time it was completely stucked in boot screen (X logo). Nothing helped.
So I went to the shop and instatly replaced for the brand new n7. As I came home I realised it has a bit of screen lifting (didnt see this issue in the shop). But rly I could live with it since its minor not like in the videos. But the funny thing is I tried to check out inside of n7. Somehow I couldnt detach the back So it looks like I got glued tablet. I feel special. And the shop is out of stock so yay from tomorrow im again without n7.

And...?

I wouldn't have changed so quickly. Rebooting sometimes happens. Its doesn't mean that the tablet has a defect. Since i bough mine i had 2 reboots. Apart from that it is perfect in everything.
What can i say ? I love the damm thing.

Have to agree with this, he got a tablet, and instantly returned it instead of giving it time to settle in, then when he got his next tablet he decided that because of an issue that doesn't affect the tablet he is going to return it again. Oh but there's a twist! Seriously, this couldn't have been added to any of the other "Buyers beware" or "Screen lift" threads?

constructive critism? nop, poor trolling. So i created a topic about my problem. Your trolling is even worse and less mannered than what I did. So get out if you have nothing to say. That post hunting doesnt give you right to say OT ****. If I did something wrong a mod can move it to the right place and I will apologize. Love the smartasses like you.
Back to topic. The first n7 I waited, rebooted it couple of times, etc but it didnt help.
The second n7..I didnt see it was used already, even charger wasnt packed.
About for you "minor" issues. I buy a brand new product from a huge tech company. I dont expect to repair what I buy. I dont want to buy a product who is marked as "broken". Maybe for you its nothing but for me, its like 2/3 of my salary.
Maybe you love defected goods so you can fix them..I dont.
Cause ppl like you they dont bother to make high quality stuff. Thank you.

Smart Dock Arrived Today!

I mentioned in another thread a couple of days ago that Verizon had the Smart Dock, and that it was shipping. Came today, and all I can say is...WOW. I am running Jedi, and the orientation is landscape, NOT portrait as claimed elsewhere...I added no new app to automatically change this, so it is either baked in to the ROM or in Nova. Either way, it is badass. Get one.

Thanks! I'm assuming with a stock rom it'll be portrait, but that's fixable according to at least one video I saw.
Edit: I'm kind of surprised Verizon was the first to get these in an nobody else seems to have them yet. I think people aren't even getting them from Samsung yet.

pix?

lucky ive been waiting since i heard about these a month ago for samsung to get some in stock seem like they never will.

Had to use the company Nexus to take these lol.

Yeah, I got tired of waiting. I heard in my other thread (where I was b!tching about the dock not being available yet) that Verizon had them...it was the day before they shipped the Note 2 to their customers. Lo and behold, the order went through and an hour later it was sent via 2nd day delivery. If you don't mind paying full price ($99), they are still in stock at Verizon (or at least they were this morning when I checked).

Judging by the close up picture it looks like there is indeed a case on the sgn2. From what I remember from the videos it has like a spring loaded injection port. I was going to take 50% off at Samsung but I have a feeling that they're just waiting for those coupons to expire.. i may just have to check Verizon tomorrow

Yes! In fact, you can see in the close up pic that I have an official Samsung hard case on mine. They made the dock really cleverly in this regard. The bottom where the phone actually sits is spring-loaded, so it will accommodate a number of case sizes. I'll try to make a video of that.
Also, my boss has the S3, and I heard people theorizing that it should work in the dock. It doesn't, at least not completely. The display out works, but the USB doesn't.

From what I understand, the dongle is merely a wireless streaming device. The dock charges the phone, allows 3 usb inputs, HDMI, and audio out. Essentially, your Note II turns into a mini desktop computer/media device. I spent the remainder of the day yesterday after it arrived at my office actually doing all of my work on it (emails, web, etc). It worked amazingly well.

I discovered something on the nexus 7 :D

Hey guys, today at work I discovered something with my nexus 7 I'll do a video maybe later
The thing I discovered is : under the right top corner and a bit on top of the left bottom corner there are 2 magnets sensors and when you put 2 magnets on those the screen will turn off, and if you put them down it will turn on by itself
I have 2 magnets on my case for the n7 that I bought on eBay and I just discovered them
I hope nobody already made a post about that

"Sad is happy for deep people" Sally Sparrow

Not everybody can know everything... I didn't know about the magnet feature until a couple of months ago. It's not exactly highlighted as a major selling point by Google/Asus.
I only recently discovered, that by LONG-PRESSING the back button whilst in the AOSP browser in the ROM I'm currently running, it brings up the BOOKMARKS/HISTORY screen... this isn't documented anywhere, as far as I know.
So it's to martinko23's credit, that he/she has taken the ribbing with good grace and humour... and I'd rather info (even blindingly obvious info - for some), be made known... for those who don't know.

[TIP] Better colour with flash photos.

Hey all, this isn't a mind blowing tip, it's just something easily overlooked. Forgive me if it's been covered but i could not find it.
When taking photos with flash I found under my tungsten light source that everything had a blue tint to it.

This I found results from the phone incorrectly detecting the white balance.
It is easily fixed by pressing the picture button and holding it while your phone focuses and measures the shot. Then a second later release it and the results are a marked difference.
To those using any camera with a half and full press button this isn't a large surprise but with the trend to simple tap on smartphones I find this easily overlooked.
Thanks

He's a street dog. Someone found him as a pup in the rain and put him online. He's pretty mixed as a breed but has some hound in him. And much smaller than a mastiff :cyclops:
I didnt know about the hold focus either. I felt it wasnt obvious because the N4 unlike htc's and iphones doesnt do an instant photo. it does the shenanigan of focusing with the ring and all the jazz so one would assume it would measure its white balance then. Anyway you live and you learn

I will have to give this a try. Thanks for the heads up.

I didnt know about the hold focus either. I felt it wasnt obvious because the N4 unlike htc's and iphones doesnt do an instant photo. it does the shenanigan of focusing with the ring and all the jazz so one would assume it would measure its white balance then. Anyway you live and you learn

Oh just like the video says I am a total noob when it comes to android phones. I have always had iPhones from the first one to 5, and after it broke I thought I mix it up and got a lumia 920 (terrible experience I had no clue what I was doing) and that bought the Nexus 4. I got to say there is a whole lot of little tricks such as this which is great, so thanks again for posting.

Welcome to the droid community. Once you get sucked in its hard to go back. I try using the i5 now and then. The lack of a back button and my app settings within a separate settings app really bug me.
