Wall / Fridge mount for Nexus 7

I'm looking for a way to attach the Nexus 7 to my fridge or to my kitchen wall, to be used with cooking apps, kitchen timers, etc, without taking up precious counter space.
I found a product called Hedgie:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HEDGIE-Univ...905?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item43b2aaadd9
But $17 for a piece of Velcro seems exaggerated. Anyone know of a better solution?

Get the cheapest TPU case you can buy and attach adessive velcro on the back and on the fridge. Easy as pie.
Or... you can buy a sheet of magnet plastic and glue it to the case and then you don't have to glue anything to your fridge.

I agree with the above post. I always buy a few tpu cases to use for special projects around the house. One word of advice though... Before you adhere a magnet to the Nexus 7 make sure you know where the auto off-on feature is located. If you accidentally glue a magnet under it it will effect you nexus 7 turning on and off.

If you have a glass splashback, you could use a car mount and attach it to the glass. Just tried this with my exomount and Galaxy Nexus, assume it would work the same with the N7.

That should work well on the undersides of cupboards and large enough tiles too, depending their surface. I'd say a car mount would the best idea.

Thanks. I'll try your suggestions and post back with pictures...
I was kinda hoping for a result that'll look something like this (check out the fridge picture):

If you have an old 20GB hard drive lying around, the magnets in the old 3.5" drives are really strong.
You might want to try what I did with my phone, to attach it to the bottom of my monitor when I'm at my desk.
Take the magnet and the piece of metal that it's attached to and bluetack this to your fridge. Then cut the bottom flat piece out of a tin can and bluetack this to the inside of the Nexus's back cover (I am guessing that there is a suitable flat area).
If you want it attached for the long term than use something else more permanent than bluetack on the fridge.

OP - I am also looking to wall-mount my Nexus 7.
So far, the best options I have seen are:
1) TPU Case with PadTab (Link to PadTab HERE)
2) Wall-Mounted Tablet Dock (link HERE).
Did you already decide how to mount your N7?

Kind of a dead thread, but if anyone else is looking for a wall mounting idea, I'm looking at a couple of these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004Z88WSK/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A29AY3J0MGBUKJ

I got 2 sets of these when they first came out on some special intro deal and paid $20 delivered. For what they are, they work well enough. Just realize that is simply a pair of cheap plastic holders you glue to whatever surface you want. You only get 1 orientation and size depending on placement. Installing them level and at the correct width is up to the installer
The pad tab from the previous post to your stuck on a TPU case would give more options albeit at about twice the cost, 15 vs 20 + 8 (or more) for TPU case.

lmao. I use HDD magnets too. Guys are crazy strong and thin = perfect. I used 2 for a LCD drawing note clip board thing and it almost pulls the fridge over (not quite but you know what I mean).
For the Nexus, I would use 1. Glue it to a TPU case and done.

This probably the one you are looking for, it's a specific kitchen mount for Nexus 7, i got it on Independence Day, it's doing 20% discount promo again now, good time to get one.

Genuine Samsung Flip Cover Review (Case for Galaxy Note 2)

Video Review
http://youtu.be/qiBW8HfdE2A
Follow Up Video!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fd-sJOMwj8E
Pros:
Very cool, elegant design, and great idea. You'll want to show it off to your friends.
It eliminates wobble problem.
You can talk with the case on.
Volume still controllable through flap.
Adds very little thickness and width.
Very good materials.
Back feels more sturdy.
Issues:
Makes notification light useless when it is closed.
Expensive, at least for the moment.
White case may be more prone to staining.
Other:
I wish the flap, although it sits flush, had some kind of magnetic attachment.

A magnetic closure will screw up the pen functionality big time.

Do you think that making a small clean hole where the notification led is, it's feasible?

Try it and see. Your s-pen won't work within range of the magnetic field.. It's only temporary.

i just tried it. you're right. but will it have negative effect in the long run? also i'm afraid the small piece of metal that attaches to the magnet might damage my screen. not a good buy i guess.. got it for around $15.

I was thinking the same thing this morning. I think if you know materials, have precision and sharp drill bits you can do a clean job. but I am too committed to the love of OEM and unmodified factory design, I don't think I have the heart do it. Also, the whole point is to remove any opening to the glass from dust particles. having a hole there just works against that goal.

Unless you cover the hole with transparent film, tape etc...

If you check the reviews here on XDA for the Note 1 version, a couple of us had problems with the flap leather/skin coming off of the support cardboard material after a couple of months. It's really nice and elegant, but the lose skin starts getting in the way. Just something to list in the cons section.

Yes. Potential peeling of outside cover on OEM case is a worry. I agree that this was a major flaw of original case. Ps. I think it was way more than a couple of people complaining about it. Lots of bad reviews on several sites. Hope Samsung have learned. From a distance though ...this case looks to be of better quality.

I dunno, I had one on my S3 both a blue and white. Forget the white, the edge peeled and got really dirty in a day. The same happened to the blue but didn't look so bad, but the edge still peeled and the hinge eventually cracked within a couple of weeks.

Am wondering if the front of the cover is waterproof??

perfect for a day to a week use ugly after a month... side peels which sucks big TIME

Any other case of this style you guys would recommend?

I now have two back covers (with nfc).. thanks to the flip cover I bought today..
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2

some reviews from the samsung site about the s3 flip cover say they deteriorate fairly quickly...can you comment on this with regards to the note2 covers?

I have the orange flip cover and now also the black. I bought the black because of a 50% off coupon that I got from Samsung and also because my orange one got incredibly dirty! I'm going to try and clean it today. Not sure how well that will go. I work in a warehouse so my hands get fairly dirty. There are large "finger prints" on the inside of the case from where my hand holds the cover when it is in the open position.
Will let everyone know how cleaning goes today!

The best car mount I've used...and it's under $3

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Universa...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item1c2ab9d685
So I received this today, it was selling for local sellers for $15+ but I found it from this seller for under $3 (inc shipping!), I couldn't justify the outrageous markup, and ordered from HK, came in 2 weeks. It comes with a plastic adhesive disk you can use to mount it to your dashboard. The phone holder part is connected to the mount using a really sturdy ball joint which basically allows quite a bit of freedom when adjusting the position of the phone.
I was hesitant because I've purchased other mounts before that were more expensive, and they either didn't stick as well as I liked, or were too loose, or didn't give me the flexability I wanted. For under $3 I'd figure I'd try it, and I'm glad I did. It is IMO the best mount I've used. It really sticks! On glass I had a hard time taking it off, and using the sticky disc on my dash, it's pretty much stuck there. Very low profile too! You are able to position it so I have the phone coming down over the vents.
It's very stable, I've taken it over speed bumps,and I do not have a soft riding car, and it's stuck, even some of these bumps causes my Garmin GPS mount to fall off the windshield sometimes!
I'll have to take some pictures, probably take some tomorrow and post them up.
[edit]Pictures are up
They are not the best pictures, it's really early in the morning here, taken from my garage, in my car, from the driver's seat using an DSLR and a large flash...very cumbersome...I adjusted the settings to have the flash bounce off everything as minimal as possible.
I positioned the mount so where the phone sits is in front of vents for VERY easy access to the phone, (putting it on the windshield makes it too far to use), useful for navigating, or passenger music selection. The holder (where the phone sits) can be rotated 360 degrees, so I could have the phone in portrait instead of landscape. To be able to place the phone in front of the vents was the major reason for buying this mount, it's where I want my phone to be. Oh and it doesn't block the vents (at least that much) as you can still position them, potentially an issue for passengers in the rear though...

I wonder if they have improved it. my experience with this mount in the past was it wouldn't hold the weigjt of the phone.
glad to know it's working!

Without the adhesive disk, the mount won't really hold to the dashboard or a wooden desk with the note 2...but will attach to glass and hold and hold and hold. It holds on to the adhesive disk the same as it holds onto glass.

thank you for sharing..

Tried one of these (DIFFERENT SUCTION CUP TYPE CAR MOUNT) with my N7 and a few seconds later BAM! it hit the floor really hard. Not gonna try this again especially with my GN2!

I don't think this mount can even hold the size of the N7..pretty much the width of the Note 2 is the largest you can go with this mount...not even sure how you got a nexus 7 on it.

Lol @ nikes.
I didn't like suction cup mounts either (esp because the OEM garmin one I have falls off regularly...and I've tried others that have failed as well...and I don't like the vent ones because 1) they don't like my vents 2) they prevent the vent from being adjusted...this is the only one I've used that really works (YMMV) but for under $3 it's not much of a gamble.

would like to see pictures of this with note ii it does NOT look very secure.
it is positive hold or positive release? how much wider can it go (picture with note two and arms spread wide as possible? (ie can I put note ii in a case ?)
right now I am using a igrip (you can get them oem for $13) the nice german made ones.
its positive release (bad) but it holds nicely and the note ii in case is so wide it BECOMES a positive hold since you have to force the note ii into it to make it fit but the result is its VERY secure and I love the arm and mount.
Here is the igrip in the minivan
would love to see some pics of your note II in this holder you linked too !

Its $2.85 US. He isnt reviewing a $30 mount. If you dont like it or, dont trust it, move on.
IMO less than $3 isnt much of a gamble. If you own a Note 2 you shouldnt be sweating $3. If you are, well getting a note 2 was a much worse financial decision than buying a $3 car mount.

Not sure what you mean about positive hold or positive release...but it's a spring loaded clamp and you have to pull on it to fit the note 2 in, and it clamps on the note 2, I have a TPU case (S-curve, which is another under $3 you can find on ebay, and IMO it's the best plain TPU case i've used as well, and I've spent lots of money on cases in the past, it's got good grip, more rigid than other TPU cases, and is soft enough to absorb shocks...back on topic)

I've used plenty of expensive mounts in the past, and I live in Australia a country where stores have very poor return policies and seriously I love this mount the most because of the ways you can position it, but I only have it in one position because that's where actually want it.
Pictures are in the first post as attachments

Dakota. OFF the caffeine. Now go sit in the corner dill the DT's wear off and come back when your normal again and its not about the price its about the 3 weeks shipping time to "find out" when a couple questions can possibly save me 3 weeks waiting
Daemos. I am not sure HOW I missed that picture. VERY slick and low profile looking. Does it open any wider? ie as wide as it goes how much gap is their (I have a pretty thick case around my note II)
how does it hold up in portrait ?
positive hold is where you have to force the arms apart and it clamps down naturally on the phone IE its always trying to "squeeze" the phone.
positive release is like the one in my picture. you press a button and it snaps open you then compress the arms onto your phone. its always trying to OPEN the arms (positive release) an gears inside "lock" it onto your phone.
when you BUMP a positive hold nothing happens most times. if you bump a positive release enough to "trip" the mechanism or jump gears it "releases" your phone since its always trying to OPEN and well there goes your $650 Note II
thats the difference between positive hold and positive release. if by pull on it that means you have to OPEN the arms to get the phone in (ie its trying to close on you) thats GOOD that is positive hold.
Might have to order me a couple of these to play with I REALLY love how "low profile" it is. might be a good camera mount too !!

Oh I just posted the pictures! Lol! You didn't miss anything
And yes it is Positive hold, very strong hold.
I will test the mount more thoroughly later and report back.

Looks good, and at least I know it will fit nicely in my Subaru
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

ahh good thought I was going whacky there
good, strong hold is very good be sure to see how much more "room" it has for something bigger (if thats not already the max) ie can it go half inch biggger etc..
the problem with expensive mounts is they are actually $3 mounts designed well with good quality control.
SO if you can find the cheap mount with the same good design .....
problem with my igrip I pictures is that you have to FORCE the note II into the mount with case. with plastic style cases not an issue but lately I am loving the wood bamboo cases I got. the igrip scratches them (them arm wings have plastic LIPS that you have to "get past" to put it in and take it out. this is good since that keeps the phone from falling out forward. but since I am slightly over what its designed to hold these lips TOUCH the case in insertion and remove with some force ie scratching the wood.
so I am looking for alternatives

This looks like a Chinese knockoff of an iOttie mount:
If you feel comfortable buying Chinese counterfeit stuff, then go ahead. Just letting people know.

The bad thing about the vent mounts is that, depending on the design, the phone usually blocks airflow to the driver or passenger and if the heat is on this heats up the phone generally depending on whether or not the vent can be completely shut off.

I'm 100% sure it's not a iottie design, as I've seen this exact same mount sold under different brand names (BBM in South Korea). There are times (many times esp for low cost items) where Chinese factories design the mounts/products, pitch them to different clients, who then apply their own branding for their specific market/region.
So...in the end they pay even less than what you'd pay on ebay...but charge you way more. So if you are happy getting ripped off by companies who charge lots of money for very little innovation...go for it.

To answer questions:
The width of the note 2 + my case seems to be the mounts physical limit for opening.
In portrait it holds just as good as landscape.
However, I have found if you use the mount as shown in the iottie, it seems firm, but not as stable as the position I have, but I don't plan to use it that way as the other way works better for me.

Invent car mount

I recently bought a car mount for my note 2 which fits in the air vents of my car, from 'invent'. Despite what they said on the web store, it does not fit my note 2, so I get my money back, no worry about that. But does anybody know of an alternative that will fit the note 2? I specifically want an air vent solution, so others will not do.

Isn't the phone a bit heavy for venting? Any vent mounts I've ever used cause the vent to roll down and put the phone at an awkward and unusable angle.

I would love to help you, but help yourself first: ask a better question
http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

No need to re-invent the wheel I have been using for years Arkon Mega Grip mount and been using it for the last year with my Note 2 (also Slim Grip Ultra works great, check it out in my review, in my signature link below).. It also comes with a very sturdy air vent mount. Though I don't use it in air vent, sounds like it's exactly what you are looking for: http://arkon.com/megagrip/megagrip-windshield-vent-mount.html
What's totally cool with it, it has universal ball-joint mount so you can use it with other mounts as well.

IOTTIE! it's 10, better than any other mount and it will hold many other phones too. It's universal but sold as for the note II and s4. It'll fit most big phones.
You can stick it anywhere and it won't fall, you can also rotate it completely in any direction you want.
It's not vent mounted, but why do you want that? Theres a million better places for it.

On their site you can just select type of your phone and your car and the configurator will find all versions they have for your combination.

iOttie is good, but doesn't work well at all with Zerolemon battery. Trust me, I tested and reviewed them all (check out my signature link). Slim Grip Ultra is the only universal that fits everything up to Note 2/3 and 7"/8" tablets and it will hold a heavier phone even with ZL battery.

I always have a case for my phone/tablet because I want to keep my devices in the best condition possible but unfortunately, it also covers up their original appearance. Good thing about this case is that when open, it still exposes the majority of the tablet allowing you to show off how thin the tablet is to your friends without having to take the tablet out
The buttons are all exposed as are the ports except for the MicroSD card port (and I guess also the SIM port for the 4G owners), but then again, I doubt you'd need to remove it that often.
The tablet wedges itself tightly into the two corner brackets on the upper and bottom right side of the case (when portrait). The fit is very tight so you won't need to worry about the tablet falling out.
It also allows two different standing modes. You can either fold the cover backwards similar to the iPad cover:
or you can lay the cover flat on the table:
I prefer the second option because it feels a bit more stable and there are many more angle possibilities. You won't need to worry about the tablet sliding because the inside of the cover will provide enough resistance. Speaking of which, the inside of this cover feels really nice and velvety and will help keep your screen in great condition.
It also wakes/locks the tablet when you open and close it. Overall, I am very satisfied with this case. It's pretty much as thin as they come but still very sturdy and solid at the same time. Highly recommended! By the way, the pictures make it look a little grey but I can assure you that the case is as black as the tablet

I wonder how this compares to the one from Sony, since they are the same price

This one is actually about 9 pounds cheaper But yeah, it would be nice to have a comparison. I think they both perform all the same functions (stand angles, magnetic cover) so it would be a close match.

Looking at the pictures, so only my assumption which can be wrong, it looks like the Krusell case folds a little bit over the front of the screen where the Sony Office does not seem to do that as much.

Do you mean the brackets holding the tablet in place covers up more of the bezel than the Sony Cover? You're probably right about that. The Sony one looks like it's clicked into the four corners whereas the Krusell one is wedged into two corner brackets. It's really minimal though and doesn't cover the screen up at all and I hardly notice it.
EDIT: A friend of mine just bought the official case and it seems that the Krusell one is a tiny bit thinner. The reason for this I think is because the official Sony one basically has an extra inner layer underneath the tablet (which allows it to have 4 corner attachment points compared to Krusell's two). Not sure if I'm making any sense But if you look at my pictures, you'll see that when standing, the bottom of the tablet is resting against nothing whereas the official Sony one is resting against another layer. Wish I took some pictures...we were too busy Shadowgun
