Good mount with dual screen? Maybe even wireless charging? - LG V60 ThinQ Accessories

I was thinking of getting a mount that allows me to mount when in dual screen. Maybe even use while in dual screen.
One possibility was a mount for a tablet.
Maybe this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00585CLR2/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1
I haven't found a mount for a tablet that also has wireless charging.
It is useful to be able to use dual screen, but my main reason is that I don't what to take the phone in an out of the case because of reports of charging port failing.
UPDATE: I did get the mount above, and it works very well. I can mount with the dual screen (or without), while screen is open, both in landscape and portrait. The phone sits quite sturdy. And, no problem to connect power. It is nice to have navigation on one screen, and music/podcast on the other.

This is the one I have. I put the main phone in it and open the dual to the side. Works fine.

You are right. When the dual screen is 180 degrees open, there's still enough room to latch on. Worked today with my regular phone holder. Not amazingly stable, though.

Mine is pretty tight. So not much different for me.

would anyone try a velcro mount??
so the back of the dual screen case would have a permanent velcro thin pad silicone on, glued on, the more expensive baby version of the velcro strips, that is super soft, the hooks side will be on the car mount.
this way both screens can be on, like maps wide view.
not sure how many strips will be safe enough and probably would look super ugly but functional

Nah. My existing mount works fine

any chance you can show pics of the phone grip from the side or back? im just thinking with all the glass, one bump and drop and its cracks everywhere

Using my regular mount, phone isn't very secure. Works in a pinch.
The mount mentioned above works very well.

The one I bought on Amazon isn't available any more, but it was like the one below. It grips the side and still lets the screen open like others said. not great, but OK. Only came out once. Not sure if I can get a photo of it sitting in the case, but i'll see.

Loose Charging Cover

I've had the g1 since launch and the charging cover is starting to get loose. The clip on the left side of the cover doesn't stay closed anymore and always hangs out halfway.
Just wondering if anyone has the same problem and found a fix.
Fix
OK, so I played around a little bit and realized that the clips on the left and right of the mini usb cover are not really used to keep the cover in place.
To tighten up the cover again I used 3 pieces of scotch tape, layered on top of each other, on the long side of the hexagon shape of the mini usb. Make sure the tape is on there well and wont come off too easily. It has worked so far for me, but don't know how long it will last.
If anyone has any other suggestions, it would be appreciated.
I've been contemplating taking mine off.
I took mine off. No need to open a flap to charge now
Had no probs whatsoever since

Disable screen-off by magnet?

Has anyone been able to/willing to figure out a way to disable the whole screen-off by magnet thing? I've been using a magnet mount in my car, and everything works great except that if placed just a bit off, the screen will turn off. Turning the screen on doesn't help because it will turn right back off again as soon as you swipe away the lock screen. As soon as I remove my phone from the holder (or even just slide it up/down a bit) it will stop doing it. I can't really move the plate the magnet attaches to, because then it would interfere with wireless charging. I've seen solutions for other devices, but not the N6. Thanks.
following! i have the same issue with my magicmount.

where have you put your "plate" on your phone? do you use wireless charging at all?
I don't use wireless charging. It was for a magnetic mount in my car. I had my plate attached to the spigen slim case and I placed it about an inch below the Motorola logo, my phone kept locking and wouldn't unlock as long as I had the plate there and attached to the magnetic mount. I ended up having to move it up and cover about half the Motorola logo and it works fine, but I find that aesthetically unpleasant.
Therefore I'm hoping someone has a solution so i can lower the plate to where it was before.
Would also like a fix for this. Use a magnetic phone holder too. If I get it in a sweet spot then I'm OK but any movement or mount it just off screen is off and can't get it back on. Like a tasker to disable this would be perfect!

Till now I could not find a software solution to disable the magnet sensor.
In my car there is a strong neodymium magnet. Fixed with double sided tape. Diameter about 20 mm.
On the back of my N6 is a hard case with a small metal piece fixed on the outside with superglue.
When the metal is mounted on the lower part (about 1 cm below the M-logo) the magnet sensor is not activated
When there is metal on the back, wireless charging is not possible. The metal will be very hot and may cause damage.

[Q] Magnetic car mount causes screen to turn off

I have the Logitech [+] drive magnetic mount in my truck. When I attach the Nexus 6 to the mount, the screen turns off. If I try to turn the screen on while the phone is magnetically attached to the mount, the screen will immediately turn off. As soon as I remove the phone from the mount, the screen will come on. Does anybody know if there is a setting that controls this behavior or any kind of work around (i.e. Tasker, etc) so the screen will stay on when attached to the mount? I would like to use the phone for navigation, but that is obviously out of the question unless I use a non-magnetic mount or just leave the phone loose in the console, which neither option is preferable to the ease of the magnetic mount. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
No solutions so far at the moment. But keep an eye on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/magnet-screen-off-t2968380
where (on the back of the phone) do you have the metal plate placed?
above or below the motorola M? or over top of it?
also, does the metal plate lay flat on the back? or are you using it along with a case?

Screen turns off when using magnetic dock in car

So I have a new magnetic mount for my car and when I put my phone on it the screen will turn black and lock.
When I hit the power button it will turn on to the lock screen and if I unlock the phone it will go to a black screen and none of the android buttons appear.
If I take it off the mount it works just fine.
I checked around and didn't see any dock settings or anything related to that.
Is there a way to disable this or figure out how to get around it?
Using MeanPop2.0 5.1 update.
So it looks like I need to find a way to disable the hall sensor.

You using a case to mount the magnet-to-magnet connection from phone to mount?
I have a case with the metal sheet inside the case covered with some tape. When i dock my phone to the mount it sticks perfectly and no issues.
I dont know if this will be any help but Magnet Unlocker in Play Store might help disable this?
Cant post link, noob here still.
same here
Exactly the same issue with my N6 on the magnetic dock...
Had this been resolved? I'm having the exact same issues. Sometimes I get it to work with a reboot. But it's annoying.
Have you guys checked settings - > display -> daydream?
There is an option for when it docks, I'd suggest turning that off. Just a guess, I don't have anything magnetic to check.
It could also be tripping a magnetic "off"; say if you had a flip cover, it would turn the display off when you closed the cover.

I had exactly the same problem, with my LG Power X. Solved it by moving the metal plate to be higher in the case. Found that the magnet switched off screen and only displayed clock - when it attached to the lower half of phone; but when i moved the magnet around i found only certain spots triggered the display switch off. I suspect there is a magnetic sensor in the phone for some kind of docking feature.

Axon M lock the double screen mode

Hi!
I know is not a new phone but I just bought a really cheap sealed axon m, everything works perfectly except for the dual and extended mode, the keys on the M bar are grey and I can only use the AA mirror mode, I read online about people using magnets to make it work and I tried, it does, but it's kinda annoying having to carry a magnet for the phone, is there a way to lock the dual mode so it's always on when I unlock the device like the AA mode?
Or is there a way to make the phone believe that it's always unfolded so it let me use the other modes?
Thank you!
Get a super thin 1mm neodymium magnet and place in the back in the dished out area using double sided tape. Play around with location and polarity to enable. 1mm allows the phone to still fold.
