Are there any mounts out there that can hold my phone with the standard verzion silicon cover attached? I am looking for a compact car mount like the standard car mount that has the attachment similar to the holster attachment where it just snaps in. I do not want the kind that grips the phone on the sides. I also do not want to have to modify my phone in any way.
Thanks

Having the silicon cover on the phone pretty much precludes using any snap-in holder. If for no other reason that the silicon does not snap.
Further ruling out a mount that would grip the phone would leave only one alternative: a custom mount that the phone would slip into.
That is talking about a mount custom made for the DINC.
No such thing on the market.
Not enough profit margin, unless you would be willing to pay an awful lot of money (enough for the manufacturer to recoup development and production costs) for it.
Your answer is the Soundgate M2 car mount. Very minimalistic in the car and all you do is stick a thin disc on the back of any case or phone directly. Google it. Sticky doesn't ruin your car either. I had it on an BMW M5 attached to the leather dash and it came off clean. Solid too performance on bumpy roads too.

Yes I heard of that, and actually saw some photos of it on here. however I didnt want to have to glue something to my phone. especially since it has to keep going in my pocket. I suppose it depends just how thin it is. maybe its worth another look.
If I recall, the disc is metal and it is held on with a magnet? I wonder if I could stick the disc on the other side of my case so the back would be smooth
I had a Droid 1 and bought a SlipGrip OtterBox Car Holder. Search Ebay for it.
I now have an incredible with a seidio active case and it fits perfect. only this is you have to trim the bottom right piece to allow for the charger to plug in. It looks oem to me and much better than those "one size fits all" Car Mounts.
For anyone who's been wanting one but couldn't bring themselves to cough up seventy bucks for it, it looks like Dell is clearing out their inventory on their website -
only $20.03 + tax and FREE standard shipping! Here's the link...

ENJOY!
I almost ordered my S7 with the Otterbox from Dell in November but the delivery date for the S7 was early January and the Otterbox was in February.
Woohoo! Just Bought 2!!
Thanks!!!!
There's a thanks button for that
Anyone know if it fits in the dock with the case on?

LOL! I asked the exact same question in the other Otterbox thread! Guess I'll be able to answer the question myself here in about 4 days...
Great please let us know and take a picture if you can. Cause that would be the deciding factor for me. I wont get it if I cant dock it. DS7 + Dock is great for gaming. Trying to take off the case all the time would suck and not be worth it.

I have the OtterBox case but no docking station. I assume that it plugs into the multi-pin bottom port. The case adds some added thickness around the whole S7 plus a soft rubber bumper which a flap covering the port. The flap opens, hinged on the top or screen side and wraps around the under on the bottom. With the standard OEM cord plugged in, the flap extends past the plug by a good 1/4". Want a picture of cord plugged in?
Did a search for the docking station and found this review page: Docking Station. One of the posts state that they have to remove the OtterBox to dock!

Well that really STINKS! I'm thinking that maybe using the back rest plate for the Streak 5 (it comes with the docking kit) will make it work. That back rest plate is curved to allow for a slightly thicker device to fit into the dock.
If it really can't be made to work then the case will have to go. I won't give up my dock - I like it so much I bought 2 of them....
EDIT: I just dug out the Streak 5 back rest plate and looked it over. It is actually curved the opposite way (compared to what I was thinking) to make it work with a THINNER device - not a thicker one.
Sad to say, but this is NOT looking very promising. I may actually have to make a new back rest plate. The big question will be whether the connector in the docking station will plug far enough into the socket with the case on the unit...
Yea if I have to remove it, then no, I dont need the outterbox. I mean I already hate that I cant dock my zune cause I use the hard case on it (official one) What I wish is if docks made extension cords for it.. Imagine use extension on the dock and you could least get features of dock even if it wasnt sitting in it. That or a block you add on top of the dock to fit with cases.
Anyone know a GOOD decent case that the dock would fit with?
is this the rubber case like the DS5 Otterbox? the one that you had to stretch around, but still held well, or the one that is a complete b*tch to get off once it's on?
I ordered this and got it next day. It's a four piece case. There is a rubber "skin" that goes over the hard shell. It's not the easiest thing to get off, no.
Well, I got my OtterBox today. Nice case - pretty much the ultimate in protection.
BUT unfortunately, there's no way to make it fit into the dock with the case on and since it won't just slip easily out of the case, that's a deal breaker for me.
Unless someone here wants to buy it for what I paid for it I'll be sending it back...
Ok so we know that this doesnt work, sucks, but sadly the dock is a vital thing to have on the counter. Easy to keep in view, hook up to the tv, and works wonders for playing emulators on and easy to see. =)
So we need to figure out which case we can use. Was thinking about a simple cover on it. Rubber maybe ok but I need to find a good one that doesnt "sweat" or make a smell after being on it for ages. Then we need one that fits the dock.
Yeah, I just ordered one of the $5 silicon cases of eBay. We'll see how it works out. I'll keep you posted...
Ordered mine, since I'm not having much luck getting a dock at a decent price figured I might as well since the defender is one of the best case options I've seen for the Streak 7
Yeah, if I didn't have and use the dock I'd definitely keep the OtterBox. I ordered a 2-pack of "military grade film" screen protectors and a silicon skin case from eBay. Combined they were a whopping $10.98
I know its not going to be the same level of protection as the OtterBox, but it should be enough to protect it from day to day knocks, bumps, and bruises. I may also get one of those neoprene slip cases for it...

http://www.all4cellular.com/dell-streak-7-home-audio-video-dock.html 50$ on sale. There are some aftermarket ones too for 25$ but those ONLY charge and sync, no hdmi and so, which honestly, is rather pointless in terms of the streak, since hdmi is nice.

I put a Zagg screen protector on mine.
Got the cheapo skin case the other day. It is just thick enough to keep the Streak from fitting into the docking station.
So I got out a pair of small sharp scissors and enlarged the hole for the bottom connector until it exposed the whole area around the docking connector where it makes contact with the docking station.
That still didn't quite solve the problem. The thickness of the case on the back of the unit where it leans against the clear plexiglass "backstop" moves it forward on the docking station to the point that the connectors don't line up properly.
So the next step was to make a new "backstop" out of thinner plastic. I had an old hotel key card lying around and that worked great. Just the right thickness, and stiffness, yet easy to cut to match the shape of the tabs across the bottom.
Since it is much thinner than the slot in the base I filled in the slot with a little hot glue. That way I can always remove it easily if I choose to since the hot glue doesn't stick that well to hard non-porous surfaces.
I just got some bluetooth headphones for my note 2. i have an otterbox defender case and i was wondering if there are any armbands that fit the note 2 with a defender case. thanks!
Fwiw, at the gym I just put mine in my shorts pocket. If you're running outdoors I'm not sure what to recommend. That's a giant armband if one does exist.

They do exist.. Arkon has a nice one.
I received it two weeks ago and don't care for it much. Main reason being Branch chain amino acids are in my pre-workout and make my skin itch.. So having the band around my arm is hell.
Strength training/HIT workouts are good... Cardio is difficult because I have to stop every 0.2 miles to adjust it. Pockets may just be easier.
Anyways, op's question: the Arkon is tight with a slim case.. And I haven't seen one large enough for defender. You may be able to mod one with some sewing skills.
Aarkon will not work with Defender or anything thicker than TPU case. I did full review of that armband in another forum: http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-note-2/662686-my-review-arkon-sport-armband-note-2-a.html

You said in another thread (I don't have the link, it may have been on androidforums) that you were able to stuff the UAG into the Arkon holder, but it was tight...is it so tight as to be unusable? I'm actually looking at getting both for my Note 2, and it would be nice if I didn't have to remove the UAG.
Otherwise, is the UAG tough to remove?
Thanks!

No, its relatively easy to remove; pretty much how you would remove any generic TPU case of sorts.
Still would be a hassle to remove it just to put it in an armband, because then you'd need to find a place to store the UAG in the meantime.
That and if something were to happen, i.e, phone pops out, or you stack it, then the phone is less protected.

Apologies for the long reply...
You can check out XVIDA. I use the XVIDA Car Mount and an XVIDA StickyPad. (Note the XVIDA StickyPad works with the phone naked or with a smooth back case)
The are three variants. Suction Cup, Air Vent, and CD Slot Mount.
I also use their Desk Mount and Mountable Pad.
I am not sure if the XVIDA StickyPad is compatible with the Pitaka case. I am curious to know though. I have an X-Doria Galaxy Note 8 Case Defense Lux Carbon Fiber case, XVIDA StickyPad, Case friendly 0.33mm dot matrix tempted glass protector, and a uh ring finger thing. I like how the Pitaka case looks not sure about drop protection.
This case and screen protector combo has saved from a weird drop. Flying out of my hands screen first unto the metal protusions of a shopping cart. Broken screen protector near the Iris scanner and bottom near the default location of the back button. Screen was saved with no scratches or anything. I panicked though since this was just 3 days from my purchase.
Note:
If the Note 8 case isn't smooth you need to use stronger double sided adhesives.

Oh sadly the Scosche Magnetic Car Mounts won't work. The magnets have to be around the qi wireless charging transmitter on the mount. Magnets and metal interferes with Qi wireless charging. In fact Qi wireless charging also slightly interferes with the S-Pen when using a wireless charging powerbank. I even got a notification pop-up stating that.
Mophie also has a solution but I don't want a battery case.

Hrm, yeah the mophie also isn't water resistant. Wonder if the Pitaka really is the only solution for the time being...? Too bad so many people seem to be having customer support issues with them!
I have a Pitaka case and it is the only one that works with mag mounts and wireless charging. I think Pitaka is just overwhelmed with orders. Before I got this case I had to use a metal plate a small one and put it on the outside of my case all the way up by the camera for it to work with my wireless charger. It looks horrible but it worked. So when I heard about Pitaka I jumped on it fast. I ordered mine and the car mount and I received it in about 8 days. I would just keep checking back with them. It is well worth it.
Actually.. I did a slight modification to my spiegen, and it does both.. The only thing I did was cut one of the round magnets in half, and then, placed it in the normal indention for the magnet.. And I have used it now, for at least a good month without issue.. I also turn the phone landscape on the charging stand sometimes to watch a video while charging...

I think your complicating it in your head, more than it really is, in action.. Visualize what I wrote, and then, look at the two pieces that I linked to.. And it will come to you.. You honestly just cutting the magnet (plate) in half and sticking it in the case indention that is already there.. Versus using the whole thing.. It's really, truly not technical at all..

Am I the only one that doesn't use the metal plate the mount comes with? It just sticks to my phone without having to use a metal disc. I'm using a sosche magnetic mount, same story with my previous s7e and s8+, granted I am using one of the super thin peel case.
I was using the pitaka for my note 10+ didn't looked back since then.
Light, strong, nice, wireless charging and NFC works well with the aramid fibre. I have other carbon fibre casing which causes the NFC not to work.
Anyway best part is that the case is so thin and it's compatible with any magnetic mount! This means you do not need to have a separate metal plate on your phone or case, this casing have it embedded inside the case.

I do not have any pitaka car mount, but I uses this one other magnetic car mount and it works fine, with wireless charging too.
I placed order for my case very early. Perhaps thats why I got it early I guess.

How is the cut along the side of the phone? I have had multiple cases from Pitaka but the on on my Note 10 Plus I couldn't stand and returned . They made the sides a little to short in my opinion and it was difficult to pickup because the edge. Tried the LaterCase and the sides cam up just enough to be comfortable. I want another Pitaka because the magnet and Samsung pay still working with it.

Other MagEZ cases work with the MagEZ car mount, but not the MagEZ case for Note 20 plus. However, their wireless charging car mount does work with MagEZ case for Note 20 Ultra.
Why not get the charging one? It's good to have a little charge while driving.
https://www.ipitaka.com/products/magez-mount-qi-for-s20-ultra-p40-pro
Is the air worth $10 more than the MagEz?
I have the MagEz on my S20 Ultra and rarely use the magnetic feature.
Plus, I think the finer pattern looks better even though the phone is huge.
I've been using the MagEZ case since the Note 8, and have the older Qi charging mount for my car (Not quick charge), and haven't looked back one bit. I'm trying to decide if I want to pick up the MagEZ Mount Qi Desktop, or the MagEZ Juice(Has a detachable Qi charging pack). Now that I look at their site, I might need to upgrade to the mount for the N20U......
They have some great products and even though the case doesn't offer much in the way of serious fall protection, it's very thin and has a great texture to it.

If you don't use the magnetic feature, you may consider the air case. Air case is more expensive because the aramid fiber used to make the case is rarer. By the look, you can see the pattern difference, and the touch is greater. And of course, lighter and thiner, without the magnetic feature.
i would like to see them make it in different colors like they do for the iphones. Also would like to see the heavy duty case they also make for iphones
Just got the Pitaka MagEZ case and it's nice but still wish the sides came up more. Here is it compared to the Spigen slim fit. You can see when you hold the phone with the Pitaka you are holding right on the cases edge. It's super slim so not to big a deal I just feel like it's less surface area and feels like it's going to slip sometimes. I have the Latercase coming soon and will see how that one is.
For me the Pitaka Mag case looks perfect. Mine should be here any day.

You did get the wrong case... air case has no metal plates, no magnetic feature. Sure thing it will fall off from the charging mount. You would need a Mag case, or get some metal strips for the air case.
Received my MagEZ case & car mount. Case is good, very light and slim, might not be super helpful for drops, but for surface level protection it should be good. There is a small amount of lift for setting the phone face down and around the camera. There appears to be a removable insert around the camera hold for the maybe 1 mm lip, but I'm not planning on taking that out, that doesn't appear to be an "intended" feature.
The car mount is good too, it holds on to the phone well
enough, but it has to rest on the camera module to get a snug grip and to charge the phone. The contact point that touches the camera is soft rubbery, so I don't think it'll scratch it, but if some dirt or something gets on there it may? Not sure
