Atrix Lapdock with Droid Razr Maxx - Motorola Droid RAZR

I ordered it a couple of days off of Amazon for $60. Flipped the ports and shaved down the plastic pieces to make it fit and it works like a charm for both my wife's stock ICS and my rooted custom ICS ROM (Eclipse 1.1). I know some folks like the old webtop interface better but the interface is so smooth now. And plus, it has one thing that other tablets don't have: touch typing without an additional peripheral which was important to me. It is also definitely better with a bluetooth mouse but the trackpad is passable.
If you have a lapdock, where did you find extension cables for the ports in case I didn't want to shove it into the back? The best I can find right now for a set of female to male micro HDMI and USB cables is almost $30 including shipping (that's half the cost of the dock).
Also, what are some of your favorite apps in webtop mode? Been digging QuickOffice and the stock Google apps.

$20? Wow! You'd be paying more for the cables then.

Not much of a link to post. I read this thread yesterday. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1343268
I called my local radio shack and they had one. The guy working there couldn't believe it was marked that low on clearance. I hurried up there before they could tell me "it was sold". Have them look up that part number because they didn't think they had one til they searched. I think you can have then search other stores nearby also.

At first i thought this thing was gimmicky. After using it for a week i can say this thing is great. With the logitech wireless mouse this acts just like a laptop. Scrolling with mouse, copy and paste like windows. Alt/tab shortcut to pull up other programs. I could mention more but... Basically i don't even turn my laptops on now.

I'm not there yet but I do use it more frequently than I thought I would. The keyboard takes a bit getting used to and the mouse is huge, too.

After a few days with it too all i can say is that i love it. My Toshiba Qosmio X775-Q7272 gaming laptop is a monster of a thing to be handling so when i found out about the $20 deal i thought i would give it a shot. Its pretty sweet. Charges
he phone while using it (not that i have to worry about charge with Razr Maxx). Wireless mouse works perfectly and keyboard has no delay at all.
2 things i dont like: 1 The area to the right of where you plug your phone in gets really hot. Even after 10 minutes of use. I'm sure that will shorten the life of cables and conections in that area.
2.I cant get my maxx to sit well enough in the plug so it keeps disconnecting here and there. Seen as the maxx has to be standing up i didnt really expect it to work. So i'll keep am eye open for a good deal on small extension cables for it so it can be chilling on the table. Or i'll keep trying to think of a way to mount the phone on the dock.

Anybody interested in buying an Atrix lapdock that has been reconfigured for RAZR?
Hi everyone, I'm not sure if this is allowed on the forum. I was selling my Atrix lapdock that I was using for RAZR MAXX on eBay, and got into a big mess with buyer and eBay (long story). Anyway, I don't trust eBay anymore so I'm looking to see if anybody is interested in buying it on XDA. If so, please PM me. I have a solid past eBay history and am willing to explain and arrange for a lower price than what was sold on eBay. Thanks in advance!

Well, I can tell you I bought the package for the Droid X from Verizon. The dock came with a nice power plug and hdmi cable. I regularly download movies to my X2 and watch them through hdmi through the dock on my TV. It really does rock. I haven't encountered a format that it can't play.
The only problem is inserting the phone into the dock. It's a pain in the arse.
mine should be here Tuesday.
I bought the bundle pack too, only from Amazon for $50 instead of the $70 or $80 they wanted at Verizon

I got the DX2 bundle from Verizon for $20.00 right before the DX2 came out. I haven't used the car dock but I use the media dock at work every day. It does it's job. Holds my phone visible like a clock. I can still access my phone and even change the bottom apps on the media home screen. I have not yet used it for HDMI though so this isn't really a full review. One thing I can say is this thing can be a pain in the butt to dock. Having the two ports so close together you almost have to wiggle it in. (that's what she said) You should get used to it and eventually not have a problem.
hey, I forgot about this post. I got the bundle for $50 myself, and I used the media dock on my nightstand. I have plugged the phone into the dock in my truck just for the fun of it but haven't actually driven with it yet. The media dock is cool, but the car dock seems to alter the functionality much more. It changes the screen to look like a traditional GPS, and there are giant buttons for shortcuts. In short, it seems pretty cool. I just wish there was a good pro-clip option for my vehicle, because the suction cup just doesn't do it for me.

DX otterbox works well..obviously
For anyone with the media dock, does your phone randomly repeat the default notification sound every so often while docked (Not an actual notification of something, it does it normally when you plug it in the dock)? Mine does it randomly and it's pissing me off. I wish there was an option to turn off the notification sound. My OG Droid never had this issue. =\
nope, it does it 3-4 times as I struggle to line up the damn thing so it will slide into place, but that's it.
I got the essential pack when it was on sale for $ 20 also but I wish there was a case that works with the docks tho. I use the car dock the most.

I have all the motorola photon accessories I bought them from sprint, and they are all fan freakin tastic, the docking station the car cradle and the motorola blue tooth keyboard, everything is from motorola. I have my photon set up to use as a web tv on my flatscreen its absolutely amazing, I am using it right now typing on the bluetooth keyboard, there are no downfalls to this surfing is fast and snappy but I will tell you this I have netflix also and I have to open the app from the phone and switch it to full screen because if you use the mozilla firefox web browser to go to the netflix site it won't register a an authorized device so open the app from the phone and switch to full screen I am fortunate enough to live in a great 4g coverage area and I have no lags whatsoever or buffering, and. Jsut so you know I am running the stock rom the only thing I did was root the photon for the free wifi, I have had my photon for about 2 weeks, since I broke my epic, and was a die hard epic fan now I have both I started a new line of service and it only cost me an extra 15dollars a month for 2 lines so I switch back and forth when the battery gets low and I don't want to wait I just grab the other phone and off I go, but I will tell you this that having the docking station and the keyboard I don't use my laptop as much anymore, I work in web based IT so I am always on the net and this setup does averything I need, I walk up to my next project pop out the kick stand and pull out the keyboard and off to work I go, its really simplified my life a whole lot I hardly ever use my epic anymore, but it was my favorite so I can't see myself giving it up. Well my friends as for the car dock its amazing once you put the photon in the car dock it turns into a gps automatically and it comes with all the wires you need if you want to hook it up to the auxhillary port (hmm don't think I spelled that right!!!) Then the main screen give you 4 slots to put whatever app you use most, I use my phone to listen to my music thru the car speakers so that's how I have mine set up, well that's the end of this long post I hope it was helpful, if so don't forget to hit the thanks button, Later!!!!!

With out the cables the dock is useless. You can do what most people do and cut/modify the dock but the cable solution is a better way to go. I, for one, do not have a steady enough hand (or patience) to do the mod.
UPS says it's out for delivery, so I'll have it tonight when I get home.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using XDA
So I got the lapdock yesterday. it does have a battery which charges the phone at the same time as powering the screen.
I haven't gotten to test it on my RAZR as I found out my RAZR's HDMI port has crapped out. I did take the dock to the local Verizon store and tested it on one of the display RAZr's and it works great. Just wish the cables were a bit longer, they are only about 6 inches long.
I've got a new RAZR coming in the mail, and should be here Tuesday, so I will be able to give a go review then.
Also, the HDMI cable seems to be somewhat loose, and can lose connection easy, so all4cellular has sent me a new one of those as well.
Is the display on the Atrix lapdock wide screen like the 100 & 500? I never seen on in person & some pictures look like it is yet others don't. I think the 100 is too small & the 500 is too big but this one might be just right for me, plus with it on sale all over the place it's a better buy right now assuming don't need anything the extra features you get on the 500 (not sure if the 100 offers anything more) .
Sent from my DROID RAZR using XDA
Besides multitouch on the track pad,I don't know of anything else the 500 has over this. The atrix Lapdock has 2 usb ports.
I don't know if they consider it wide screen or not but 11.6" makes it wide for it's size.
I'm trying to figure out a way for the phone to mount to the dock, so it's easier to move.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using XDA
Hi Killer Turtle, Once my lapdock comes, i am looking in to making a mod to it so it will work the same as the padfone.
once its here i can take the size of the screen, the cables etc... and then i can plan of the design.
Is it closer to 16:9 or 4:3. I haven't even been able to find any specs on the Atrix lapdock anymore.
I'm thinking the that the 100 is basically the same as the Atrix & the smaller screen is possible about the same width but it's shorter due to being a wider aspect ratio. The 500 besides being bigger also has a video out & an Ethernet port with PoE.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using XDA
It's 16:9. Screen measures 10.125/5.75
This also has 2 usb ports, the 100 doesn't have any.

Current review:
I'm currently using the Atrix Lapdock on with my RAZR. So far I'm loving it. Only issue I have come across so far is that the Flash version on Webtop isn't the latest verion, so some flash games on Facebook don't play.
Likes:
Wieght - really light compared to my Dell netbook.
Screen size-A lot larger then my netbook. And it is wide screen, image holding your phone sideways and enlarging the screen to 11.6"
Keyboard/Mouse-Didn't think having a keyboard and mouse would be that important with a phone, but now that I have them it's awesome.
When the screen is closed, the phone treats it like a normal dock, so you can set you phone to different Dock profiles, like Alarm Clock.
Love having the USB ports to add things like camers & drives.
Love the battery-Have had it on since 8:00 CST and it's still got 2 of 5 lights lit. Screen has not turned of since.
Dislike:
Need to figure out how to better mount the phone.
Sometimes it doesn't come up and fill the whole screen, about 1/4" space all the way around.
Wish there were more option for Apps to install, like Open Office (right now using the phone full screen for for this)
Once I get more time with it, I will update my Likes/Disklikes with more. So far really liking it though.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using Atrix Lapdock using XDA
Using it right now. I'd say it's a nice buy, works fairly well with the RAZR. The cables included are very short, though, which makes it hard to mount the phone right. I modded it to allow direct connection, but it's a bit tricky to get the connections to work properly (my own fault, probably.) The software is also pretty mediocre. I'm using the ICS leak on my RAZR, and instead of an Ubuntu-type OS it's basically tablet Android... except it's still got phone apps (except for a few stock apps and my launcher.) Everything's blown up, which is really irritating. Still works fine, but I feel Motorola needs to work more on this. Or if someone with dev experience were to force apps to use a tablet interface, it would be perfect.
I decided to go to with the Atrix lapdock, it should be here on Monday. I think this will be the perfect compromise for good screen size while being compact. I really wish it had a web Cam like the 500, I think I might try to add an internal Cam for a laptop if enjoy using the lapdock.

Stock Car Kit

Picked up the Razr Maxx HD on the 19th along with the Motorola Car Kit.
The Kit fits both the regular Razr HD and Maxx HD and also works with a silicone case (not for me,run naked)
Car kit works very well and removing and installing phone is smooth and charges it through the mount.
I use Pandora and Bluetooth constantly while driving and I am pleased with this kit.

So where did you get the car mount, did you have to order direct from Motorola?
Honestly if there's one thing I envy iPhone and even Blackberry users for, it's the readily-available accessories.
I got mine from Verizon and works pretty flawlessly with the car dock app that's pre installed. The only problem I've noticed is that when I get a text while driving connected to Bluetooth it stops the music and says "say listen to hear the message", which is cool but it doesn't work at all for me.

Is it possible to separate the holder from the suction cup mount and perhaps get it mounted on a generic vent mount (like what I use for my older iGrip/iBolt stuff)?
I just got my mount today and it works great EXCEPT for it doesn't come with the car charger with built in aux out port. Without that cable, you need to unplug and plug in your aux cable every time you mount. I used the charger and cable from the original Droid Razr mount and it works great and the audio out works just fine. Not sure why they didn't include this charger/cable with the Razr HD version though.
Just got mine from Amazon. Mine also didn't come with the Y aux+charging cable.
Unfortunately it's not the same style as my iBolt stuff... I'm ordering an Arkon swivel ball vent mount and hoping that'll fit this thing (want the AC to cool my device on hot days... even if we are entering into winter...)
So does this mount have a mini plug (3.5mm) on it that can be used since it doesn't have the charger with the splitter?
Ho no... I wanted to by one on Amazon.com the RAZR Car Dock Motorola... and I can't, I'm outside of the U.S. ...

I'm using the charger that came with the Droid Razr mount that I bought last year and it works just fine and it looks exactly like that charger, so it should work just fine.
To answer someone else's question, no the mount doesn't have the 3.5mm jack, you need to plug straight into the phone each time you mount it. That's why the charger is so key so you have everything plugged in already and just mount the phone and go. Pretty weak that they didn't include it. Overall though, I like the mount better than the one for the Razr (non-HD). The ball locks tighter and doesn't move at all and the docking mechanism is better.
Just got the car mount/home smart mount (whatever its called). Worth every penny (was a little pricey). As op said very easy and smooth to mount. Also much safer IMO having your phone directly in front of you on the dashboard instead of down in your palm for the maniacs that insist on using their phone and driving (should be treated like a dwi IMO). :beer:

I bought it at the Verizon store ($79 I think) and its a package deal. It has the home mount and car mount separately but in the same box. It also came with an HDMI cord, a dual charging plug with 2 syncing/charging cables, a docking smart cable and a car charging plug. The "smart" home dock is just as cool as the car dock. A little expensive but worth every penny IMO. I use the home dock a lot also.
Edit. The pic I posted is the home dock. The car dock looks typical but well built.

The connection cable you plug into the phone's charger input from the Rocketfish is so shotty (and that's an understatement) it really only worked for 2 minutes after I held it with my thumb a certain way. (It's like holding a TV antenna the right way to get a picture to show up)
I'm giving this product 0 out of 5 stars. BUYER BEWARE! DON'T SUPPORT ROCKETFISH'S OVERPRICED GARBAGE!
---
Also, can anyone suggest a high quality one that will allow me to view everything that's on my phone on my HDTV? (Not one that only lets you play movies or look at pictures) - I mainly want to use this to play video games and surf the web.
Thanks in advance, zmag
I bought a cheap one on amazon for under 10 bucks like 6 months ago and it works great use it atleast once a week

Pretty sure you just got unlucky on that one, the MHL you are talking about is the exact one i used for my LTE...never had a single issue.. and if you didn't already know....thats not based on the cable... its based on if the rom you flashed supports that..
Thanks for the heads up I been looking for one I won't mess
with this
If you plan on moving the phone around at all... Arliberator,,, then don't buy this one.
Op. I can't remember the name but the red one on amazon works great.

I sell the Official HTC one for the EVo 3d etc. cost 29.99. at work atleast
bought mine off ebay for 5 bucks almost a yr ago. works fine.
I bought the one from T-Mobile for my Evo 3D, over a year ago. Think it cost me around $20 but worked perfect on my 3D, and worked the one time I tried it on my Evo LTE. I bought the Media Link HD though over half a year ago, and just use it now. The Media Link HD is awesome and has never have me a single issue!! Being wire free is awesome!! I highly recommend it!!

anyone tried the onn mhl adaptor from walmart? I've used a couple of their products (a mouse and usb cord). I can't really say to much about the mouse since to me a mouse is a mouse. But I've used alot of different usb cords (I've flashed alot of phones) and theirs was really good. I'm wondering if it has the same quality?
What about trying the Samsung Galaxy S4 MHL/HDTV Adapter since it does not require a power source?
A buddy of mine gave me his RocketFish MHL adapter a while back cause he didn't need it any more; I use it with my HTC EVO 4G LTE all the time. Doesn't seem to have any issues, as far as I've seen.
Though MHL/HDMI hasn't worked for me since I flashed CM10.1 "cm-10.1-20130304-EXPERIMENTAL-jewel-M2". Hopefully that'll be fixed soon, though.
No I got two from best buy within weeks n both messed up where the charger go so yes rocketfish is some bs
