Yeah, I think they call that a side car
p.s. couldn't help it... and it looks like your my neighbor (El Cajon)

it's not the highest quality, but it doesn't feel like it will fall off and it fits the mugen battery cover(only barely though)

Definitely your neighbor.. That was funny, I could imagine a side car made just got this phone..

pictures are rather big.
there are some small loose threads telling you it's cheap, but it feels reliable(not like it's just going to fall off)
putting your phone in may take a bit of force(nothing that would break it though), but once it's in it feels like the armband is made for the mugen battery.

Kobo cover works

Picked this up today at my local Chapters store for $20. I just needed something for when travelling and don't have time to wait for an eBay or Amazon order to cross the border before my next trip.
It's not bad, fits in easily enough (thanks HUGE N7 bezel, you actually came in handy!). It also has a nice feel (different than most PU), and all the ports/buttons are usable while in the cover (though watch the top right strap, it can hit the power button).
Flap folds flat on the back if you want to use it in the case, and the N7 goes in and out of it quickly which is cool with me as this is just to protect it while in a bag, when actually using the N7 it'll come out of the case.
This is the NY Times model that comes in several different styles (I picked the most bland), and there are even nicer ones available if you want to drop more coin but at that point you're better off getting something actually made for the N7.

Nice pick up!
I saw something similar on Amazon from Marware for the Kindle. Also priced at $20.
See this case would be perfect for my wife if they didn't use elastic bands to hold it in, why is it so hard to find something like this that is just a little more industrial (has clips rather than bands)....ugh, the search continues, however this is pretty cheap and my wife might be willing to go with it, would be nice if it was a little smaller to fit the n7, just that much better, but beggars can't be choosers right?

Opinions on this case

Bought this case the other day and was wondering if someone else has bought it? If so, what are your thoughts on it? If not, what is your opinion on it?

I got this
My friend got that one and I buyed the Spigen one. In my opinion, the spigen is better all around, considering extra heft, versus protection. Also the spigen feels better in hand and to me looks better

I'll check out the Spigen case as well. Thanks!
looks like a tank!
while I like protection for my phone, thats just a bit much for me
Sure!
If you looking fot top protection it's better than the Spigen, it depends on your specific needs and you're welcome

Yeah the protection is actually what i'm going for. I do a lot of hiking, rock climbing and stuff like that. So I needed something that will withstand some abuse.
Now to get building a ROM for this beast!
That's it

Review: Aukey Wireless Charger Charging Pad Qi-Enabled 360 Degree Rotatable...

Hi all. I purchased this from Amazon and it arrived yesterday. So far, it's just awesome. Small footprint, feels very sturdy, holds phone securely and allows you to adjust the angle it sits for optimal viewing. I did not notice my S6 Edge getting unusually warm like others have said about other chargers. For the money, I think it's great. Any questions, let me know.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LJKIOSU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
A few questions for you:
** Are you using a case with your S6 Edge while charging?
** Do you have to move the phone around to find the sweet spot to get it to start charging?
** Does it hold the phone well if you have the charger angled a lot?

Hi. Thus far, I only have a thin plastic screen protector-ish thing on the back of the phone, but I am guessing it won't work with a case on very well - if at all. I imagine it depends on the case in question though. I have not had an issue where I had to find the sweet spot at all. I place it around the middle of the back and it just works!
I do have a case arriving today though, so I will test it out with the case on and report back.
For $25, I am very pleased so far. So many others were upwards of two to three times the cost (although some were cheaper too). Hope this helps.
EDIT: Okay, so my new Kavaj Tokyo case arrived and to my surprise, not only does the charger still hold my phone, it charges it through the case! Now I really love this case!!

Motorcycle mount

Does anyone have a motorcycle mount for S7 Edge? I have never used any of those. Maybe you could recommend some brands. I've searched through google and it looks very limited, thanks.

Look for Ultimate Addons cases. I have the one for the S5 and it's great! Loads of vibration protection and waterproof - including charging
RAM mount so I used a tefflezer (or something like that) yoke mount. Works really well.
The S5 case I had one of the clips snapped - they replaced the whole case withing 2 days. Their Customer Service is brilliant.
But the S5 case was about £30...

Can't recommend anything specific, but I would recommend something that completely encloses the phone and locks it in place, like this:

Many years ago I had a Palm Treo in a mount that simply clamped on the sides of the phone (similar to this):
Had an accident, and the phone flew about 30 feet down the road. Found the phone (with the antenna stub ground down), and the battery cover, but never found the battery.
Ram mounts are very secure, sold on Amazon. I use them on bikes, know people who use them on motorcycles.

Well, RAM mounts are the only ones I kinda 'like' so far. However, after doing some research I noticed some people had problems with their mounts losing phones (especially in horizontal mode). Can't say I am convinced... Would rather get something like @meyerweb posted in his first picture.
EDIT: Alright, as I ain't trusting this RAM thing (simply found too many negative reviews) I came upon something like this http://www.givi.it/motorbike-accessories/Supports-for-mobile-devices-and-power-supply-kits/S957B
Givi is solid when it comes to bags and stuff but how about this holder? Can't find many reviews but it looks neat.

Battery Case for OnePlus 8T

This may sound weird but I'm not satisfied with the batter life of this phone.
Is there any battery case available or do you make one yourself?
Unfortunately, The Latter.
Here's mine!
Now finally the claims of "2 day battery life" sees the light of day.

I couldn't get my hands on Epoxy resin or silicon sealant so hot glue FTW, for now.
To not make it look ugly I just stuck a piece of torn jeans on top to make it bearable.
6Ah Li Po battery, 1A Power bank board, Portronics L-shaped USB-C cable, lots of hot glue, a flatback sacrificial case and patience are all you need to make one yourself.
Technical but it seems too ugly
Cool stuff!
hey, you could try to use someone's 3D printer and software to create a much cleaner housing/case for the external battery

ideally for strength I would go with CNC milling aluminium, or better yet, mill a new chassis and add 2x 4Ah cells in series, since the battery inside is 2x 2250mAh in series for 7.2v, but I'm working with what i have for the moment
I have ordered Battery case for my brand new One Plus 8T Araceli 10000 Mah since 22 days but still I have not received my order yet but trust me it look so great and exciting for the order. You guys must check out on AliExpress. SIPOTEK

it's mind-blowing,,,
I actually just registered on this forum just so I could congratulate you on your work of art! I was looking for a battery case for my OnePlus 8t and found this post... I probably will not get around to duplicating your success... but I also had the same idea. At long last, I'm surrendering my Note 4 from 2015 with its ZeroLemon 10,000 mah battery which would go at least 2 days often 5 between charges. I joked that I could go on a 3-day drinking adventure and when I sober up my phone would still work to tell me where I'm at! Just kidding of course... I hardly drink. Anyway, your kind shall triumph! Ha ha! Keep up the handiwork!
Interesting work
