Scosche makes a couple different universal holders that will work. I have the vent clip one. There's also a windshield type if you perfer. Check the GPS section at your local big box store.

I ordered the Clingo in-vent car mount just over a week ago, when it arrives I'll let you know if it works.

I agree the slipgrip mount is too expensive. I sent the seller a message to see if I could buy 2 of the mount plates with nothing attached to build custom mounts from and he 'generously' offered to knock $6 off the total. I am looking at other options. On the other hand some people just want something that works.

It's just a phrase meaning stores like Walmart, Future Shop, or what ever large electronics store is in your neighborhood. Wow I must be getting old cause I'm using phrases that people don't understand. Walmart has a seperate section of universal docks just for GPS devices that aren't with the other phone docks. Here is Scosche's website link though.

Car Mount

Anybody know if there is a car mount available that is either specific to the Holiday, or one that is universal but works just as well? I want to try iOnRoad:
Not that I need it, because I'm a good driver.. lol just curious as to how well it works. Plus, I use navigation on occasion and it would be nice to have a real mount rather than propping the phone up on the dash or holding it.

Here you are.

Awesome. But, you know, I can't really Google any car mounts Vivid users have already tried out and experienced for themselves. Because even though I have, I haven't found any. So that's really why I asked. Nice try, though.

next time, maybe you should check the google links before trying to be funny... you know... the ones that don't actually have mounts for the vivid...
thanks.

While they don't have one for the Vivid/Raider yet, I've always used ProClip mounts (Brodit outside of North America). They come in two pieces, one custom fit to the vehicle and one custom fit to the phone, and I like it very much. I've emailed them to see if they'll make a Vivid mount, but they gave the standard "We don't know what our plans are" answer. If people are interested, email them, maybe if they get enough questions, they'll actually make one!

The ProClips are ok. I've used them before. However, I've really grown to like the Scosche universal that you can find at Walmart. It uses two small bottom feet and has sticky gel on the back to hold the phone.
It comes with a windshield mount. When the gel loses its stick, just clean it with a damp rag. Mine has lasted through three cellphones and going.

Kensigton Universal Car Mount
I just bought this a few weeks ago and it work excellent with the Vivid, it holds the phone securely and has very minimalist design. To remove the phone from the holder is just a press of a button. I used the vent clip mounting option, as I prefer not to obstruct the windshield with anything. Below is the link to the product page on Amazon, which is where I bought it from.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003SE6LD0

I picked up a thunderbolt dock last night at Verizon (only $10) cut off the left side (farthest from plug) and it fits and world really well, im ganna add some foam to the back so it fits in better and more securely.

I am actually using a Kensington iPhone car mount (can't post a link yet) granted my Vivid isn't in a case but its only about $10 on Amazon and it holds the phone snugly while given access to the charging port and can rotate from lanscape to portrait easily.
The only issue I have is that the mic on this phone is so weak that I can't be heard on the phone if I answer on speakerphone while driving. Does anyone know a fix for this?

Anyone know if htc makes different cradles for their car docks? I recently looked at an htc car mount/ dock for an evo 3d and it looks like an amazing mount with superior quality. I found a way to take off the evo 3d specific "cradle" and was wondering why they designed it that way if I couldn't find any other cradles online. It would totally make sense if I could go to a parts website and just buy the cheap cradle part. The mount is clearance at Best Buy so this would be the best inexpensive option I think.

Ive actually been in the market for a vent mount myself. I dont like window mounts mainly because they put your phone where it's sitting right in the sun the entire time its in the mount. Vent mounts help some to keep it out of the sun. I haven't bought one yet, but I plan to in the near future. However, before I do, I think I'm going to try this first. Found it in another thread, thought I'd share it here too.
http://lifehacker.com/5747897/how-to-build-a-car-mount-for-your-cellphone-from-office-supplies

My personal favorite is still the Mountek.

My first mount for my Inspire was a mountek. It worked great for what it is. I read somewhere that:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0052G6IRG/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
can be modified to fit the phone. Mine is due to arrive tomorrow and found this thread looking for the other thread lol. IIRC you have to modify (or cut off for the less handy) the portion of the mount that curves around the top of the phone (mic jack area). No worried as the USB port with firm top/bottom clamping should hold the phone from lateral movement in landscape modes. I definately would not try to have it hold the phone upside down when modified.

Try a type similar to the Rocketfish Universal mount...
Hi guys,
Just recently got the Vivid. Best Buy sells the Rocketfish Universal mount for about $25 or so. I'm sure there's something similar out on the web...I like this mount because I can move the arms/feet around the buttons and still secure the phone in mount. Useful if you have a GPS (like google navigate doesn't do a fair job) or another phone that you swap in and out with...
Would love to find a mount suitable for a '95 Honda VT1100 (though with some velcro strapping the Rocketfish would work. Any suggestions there?

Try installing "Equalizer", from the AppBrain market. It really will boost the sound quality both ways, and it's customizable.

Does yours allow the phone to actually charge properly? Mine it just slowly drains, figured I would see what your results were before dropping even more money on yet another cig lighter to usb port. My current one is spec'd to 500mA so if its functioning its provides the juice.
EDIT: Tested in car mode attached directly to the charger and it still slowly drained. must not be the dock then :/

I have a vent mount and bike mount for both Vivid and Inspire using Seido Surface cases. Fitment is excellent.

Bought Nokia CR-123 - so far so good

I've had those for my Xperia Neo, Xperia Arc and Xperia S and love them! They'll have proper ones for the Xperia T soon.

The holder does not cover or not you pressed the buttons on the side?
Xperia T construction disclaims any holder of keeping the side. Standard holder will cover USB or presses buttons.
I think the type of handle only suitable for Xperia T is for example arkon sm514 (you can check on ebay)

Thanks for the suggestion of arkon sm514. Got one off amazon and its well cheaper than the generic nokia suggested above.
This holder seemed pretty stable and does fit the T when fully expanded and used with the extended legs (2) and normal (2).

Again? They made that mistake with the Xperia S too, at least you could still access the power buttons with that one. Shame. They made amazing car mount things for the 2011 Xperia's.

Main reason to stay away from T and TL
Placement of power, and volume buttons on one side and USB on the other placed so perfectly to make all docks useless and uncomfortable to hold.
Sony should learn to think simple. Can't wait to sell this badly designed phone. Too bad I like the screen, camera, and Sony android skin.

It's not hard for dock companies like Haicom to make a 'real' (non-universal) dock that doesn't cover the buttons.
The placement of the buttons is really nice for real people who have their phones in their hands most of the time.

this one is really good one. i think i am gonna buy this...

Nope, I emailed them and asked if there were plans to release a holder for the Xperia T. They said it doesn't look like they will because there was "not enough interest to justify the cost of development and production".. Maybe if we all start bugging them they'll reconsider

I love pro clip. Being a swedish company they have mounts for all my old volvos from 1978 and up.

Yesterday I asked for a car cradle in a shop. They told me that in 2 or 3 weeks a car cradle that will not block the power and volume buttons will be available.

Funny. I emailed Brodit yesterday about a car mount they are currently developing: http://www.brodit.com/product.html?id=513473&pn=prod&brand=Sony&model=Xperia T
The response was: "We are planning to launch them in the end of next week."
That one looks really nice. I hope I'll be able to purchase that thing in Germany soon :/ The lack of a useful car mount is so annoying...

Wireless charging and leather

Has anyone added a wireless sticker to their leather battery cover? If so do you notice any issues with the leather and the heat from the charging?
I ask because I had a G3 and the back cover has melted ever so slightly from the wireless charging.

Just fitted mine this morning.
Fitted one from aliexpress. Using black leather back and orzly thin case and charges fine

This is fantastic news. How long did it take for you to receive the sticker?

We did you buy it?

I'm new to this so bare with me...
do you have to scrap off the old existing NFC chip then put the sticker on? or can you just stick it on top of what's there already?

Just as you described.

He mentioned two methods. Which one are you saying just as described to? I've never done this but I'd be surprised if people were okay with removing NFC anything so I expect that you just stick it on.

When I used this on my LG G3 I had to remove the existing NFC sticker and replace it with the QI/NFC sticker. I'm assuming we will have to do the same on the G4. I have a QI sticker on order and can confirm once it arrives.

Remove the old nfc sticker and replace with new one

I got those. Mine must have been defective because I tried for an hour to line up those pins and nothing worked. Contacted the seller for a refund.
Edit... Contacts weren't touching. Put tape underneath charging connectors and now it works.

Got mine today... I have leather back and all is working well. Had to add tape to qi pins to Raise them up.
Just take your time. I used scotch tape to get it lined up at first then once I got it right I used the built in adhesive.

Awesome deal here! Grab the G4 tempered glass for $6.99 and the case for $12.99 and you have a final price of $7.64 shipped to your door 2nd day Air, if you have Amazon prime! Great deal because I just paid $8.50 for just the Qi sticker alone! And that won't be here for another 2 weeks probably... Keep in mind what you are getting with this deal too! If you want to wirelessly charge your phone than you can take the sticker out of this case and put it in your own case if you don't like the one they send you...

Sorry man it sold out very quick and I posted it in like 3 sections and the links worked for awhile then screwed up again. It was a great deal but I'm pretty sure you at least can find a Qi sticker there if that's what is needed. Amazon has those from US sellers now which makes it a lot quicker than from alienexpress where I got my other one from.

Car base for OnePlus3 ?

Hi all !
Just bought the OnePlus 3 ! Rly gud.
But now i'm searching a car base ! Any of you have found a good one?
Is magnetic car mount safe ? (Both mechanical support and for the internal electronic of the phone.)
Thank you !
(sorry for my bad english...)

I am using a brodit car holder. Very variable but expensive. But you get a very stable holder that can be removed without damaging the car.
I am using the Version for the Oneplus One with my Oneplus 3 Mobile inkl. the wooden case.

To avoid sticking the metal plate on the outside of the device I put it inside.

Hi
I did the same for my OnePlus One... Now switched to the Three and was wondering if this would be possible for the Three as well..
Did you already open your phone and was there sufficient room to add a metal plate?
In my One I had the smallest of the two plates.. (. 25mm), if you have opened yours I guess you have used this one as well?

I have been using the magnetic mount in my car with my previous phone NEXUS 5. I never needed to use any metal plate on the phone before of it's built-in magnets inside the back of Nexus 5 which was used for wireless charging.
So it was a perfect match.
Now due to heavier weight of the phone,,, I plan on purchasing a slightly larger version of magnet mount.
But please do not that, magnets will not damage your phone but it may mess around with the built in sensors inside the phone which may rely on tiny magnets in the phone.
I remember reading somewhere that, that is the reason why Apple do not recommend using magnetic type of mounts with iPhone. or some thing like that...
But again... I really haven't had much issues with my previous phone Nexus 5 and even GPS navigation worked fine. But I did have issue where GPS directions were messed up somewhat. But worked pretty much all of other times, so I don't know whats up with that.

Hi, can you please let me know which Brodit model you got? Can't seem to find one with a cradle that has a suction cup to use in cars. Thanks.

ProClipUSA.com sells mounts specific to your car. You can then purchase a universal phone holder to attach to the mount. They sell everything you need. Might be a bit pricey, however their mounts look very professional. They take 2 minutes to install.

You probably don't want the charging option anyway due to not being Dash. Try to locate the universal holder. That way you can adjust a few screws and place any phone in it. Which mount you get is up to you .

In my OnePlus I have added a metal plate (non magnetic). I cannot imagine this changing anything to the phone or it's sensors. Only when "hanging" on the car mount there is some magnetism involved.
Did anyone have the guts yet to open his OP3 and add a little metal plate ?

Yes there is enough room for the plate. I had to cut the plate for another phone so it's now 4cm which went in without any issues. Someone said it might effect NFC but since I never use this feature it doesn't bother me.

Yes. Very easy. See my previous post for link on how to do it.

im using a magnetic holder and a cheap silicon case to stick the metalplate onto, works well for me
