I came across this mount today. looks pretty nice. I was thinking about picking one up because the mount that I have now really sucks. Just thought I would share the link.
edit:
looks like you can get it from amazon from a price range of $16 - $25 (here)
Mine is in the way as well, should get it this Monday. I hope that ball size is same as garmin.

Might order one from Amazon tomorrow, it is only $18 through them.
I'd love to know if the ball is the same size as the Garmin ball - I've got lots of other holders & other stuff that use that size. Please let us know if it is when yours arrives.
Thanks -

There's another car holder like that that fit with i777+case, but less expensive?

Good news, the ball is the same size as my Arkon, do not have garmin now, but I bet it's the same.
Thread on the back is a bit different from arkon one so I use exogear coupling box with arkon base.

Sweet, Thanks for the post. I ordered one, ordered from amazon for $18, shipped from San Diego, I received mine the next-day via USPS to SoCal. Score
Some people have complained its "cheap plastic", and while it does feel a little "thin" it does what is is intended to do plus its awesome. I mounted to an existing Garmin dash disc. Arm is solid and holds device steady.
I want to watch movie on note while driving with my wife...any good one you can recommend that can hold note?

I use a Bracketron unit. I've had it for a few years now. They make them with different mounting options. From windshield to vent to the cupholder version I use. They are like 30 at BB or can be had much less online. They are fully adjustable for size, tilt and swivel. I'm going to take a picture to give you an idea.

Thanks for the heads up. I checked on a regular basis the last few days with no luck. I was to busy today to check. But I have one on the way. This will be great for using in different vehicles.
Heres my set up. Sorry the picture is rotated.

My thoughts exactly. Maybe he should watch the road, or get a car that's so entertaining to drive that a movie isn't needed...
Got my Mountek CD slot mount today. Installed in my Audi Q5. Looks great, it only went in about 80-90% of the slot but it feels really secure and tight. Best solution for mounting I've seen so far.

im using this one www . proclipusa . com/brodit-device-holder/proclip-other-holders/regular-adjustable-holder-with-tilt-swivel-for-wider-devices-with-or-without-a-skin-875214A-13978.aspx
...doesnt work with reiko premium hybrid case.. actaly works if i remove rubber part
ps: remove spaces in the link
I have a Proclipusa [Brodit] mount in my Toyota Prius and it's great. I've been using Proclip mounts forever and highly recommend them. They're expensive, but they're precise and I think there is enough room in the back for an extended battery as it just has rails on the side that hold the phone with a big space behind it.
I'd take pictures, but I use my phone to take pictures.
It's a two piece mount. One part fits your phone perfectly, while the other part fits your car perfectly and mate together for a perfect fit.

No they wont, and you can have a CD in the player and still listen to it, you just cant eject it or load one obviously. Ive been looking at these for awhile and still flip flopping back and forth. To get he best idea of how they work just watch an installation video on it and you'll see it's quite simple and seems to be a very solid mounting method.
I prefer windshield mounts, as I can look at them while still keeping an eye on the road. Looking down at my dash I might as well be holding the phone..
Arkon is my preferred brand, their suction cup is very large and holds up well, I've had an Arkon Universal 14" for several years and it works great for my car with a long windshield, I bent the 14" arm so it comes off the windshield, touches the dash, then has the phone pointed at me, so no bouncing or vibration. They have a larger mount, but the Universal I have (slightly different than the current one, so might check specs) worked fine for my Nexus One and works fine for my Note.
I use the Samsung OEM mount, it's super solid, charges and has a 3.5mm Audio-out jack to run into your car's AUX-In.
I have two, one is vent mounted, the other is window mounted above my speedometer.
Car Air Vent Mount Holder For Samsung Galaxy Note i9220
The above works just fine on my i717.
I love my speck case but there's no way i can take it on and off my Note everytime i go somewhere. Anyone know of a car mount that will fit mid size cases??
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Doesn't have to be specifically a speck case, just something with extra room..
Universal or phone specific? I use a Bracketron universal holder fitted to a cupholder mount. They also have suction cup for windshield/ dashboard mounts as well as vent mounts. They sell at BB and a few others. Typically around $30 or so. Mine expands very wide and should have no issues fitting the Note with any case on it.

Just ordered the Exomount Universal. Should have it in a few days. Had to order it with a Galaxy Nexus screen protector and case plus car charger since everyone is sold out of the black mount only. Still cheaper off Amazon than direct from Exogear and whatever I sell the extra stuff for makes the mount even cheaper= win.

How does it scratch the phone? Or are you just having a hard time getting it pulled off?
Anyways...I bought http://www.walmart.com/ip/Grip-IT-Vent-Mount-Kit/20451899 this mount last Christmas on a roadtrip to hold my Inspire 4g in a CaseMate.
It holds my note just fine as well. Mounts in my vent, all buttons/ports are accessible, very adjustable, rotates for landscape just fine.
Depending on your vents it may work pretty well. It worked fine in my gfs focus, and is perfect in my jeep. Yes it fits my note with speck with room to spare.

I hand some hands on time with both already at the even any questions? I might be able to answer now.

Yea it handles the bass very well give the music more depth. As far as battery life Idk because I only seen it at an event but I did hear the dude saying around 7 or so hours. And it was very loud at the event and the bass played through very the crowd very well. But like I said now much hands on with it.

Boom Bass and Battery Case
I have both the Boom Bass and the battery flip case.
I love the flip case. I can easily go a couple of days without charging my phone with moderate use. I just got back from Japan and used the Max instead of my nexus 7 on the plane. I watched about 8 hours of movies (5 movies) with headphones and around 60% screen brightness. When I landed at LAX I still had 54% battery left.
I was very impressed and with the larger screen size I am finding it hard to keep my Nexus 7.
The Boom Bass is kind of cool. It does not appear to be crossed over at the right frequency. You can still hear some of the mid-range coming from the Boom Bass. Don't get me wrong in the hotel room it really made it to where I do not need to carry my Jambox anymore. Just wished it sounded a little bit better.
I am not sure of the battery life of the Boom Bass (They claim 9 hours). I used it for about an hour every morning in my hotel room for 5 days. Never had to recharge during the trip.

Got them both from the HTC UK website. The flip case from the UK comes with a stylus holder which I cut off since I don't use a stylus..
A little bit more expensive, however I had a visa gift card leftover from my birthday...

Actually went to buy phone at full retail. Said i was elligible for upgrade through edge if i turned my razr in. I dont even have the razr anymore. So he was determined not to sell me this phone at retail. Talked to his manager and said for me to buy out contract and start me on edge. He started pulling 3 cases screen protectors car charger and extra house charger, beats pill, bose speaker. I was like i dont usually buy accessories from vzw(too expensive). Told me it came with the phone. All together i paid $342.00 for everything.

The case worked as a stand for me without much issue. If you let the phone slide down too much it does fall flat. I was able to get a good angle sitting on the plane food tray that worked fine for several hours straight....
The extra battery life is what I really like about the case.......

On that note, from what I've heard, the Bluetooth connection somehow is supposed to only send the bass part to the Boom Bass and play the rest of the sound via the front facing built in speakers, right? If that's true, can we use other Bluetooth speakers and get the phone to keep the front facing speakers still on?

Finally my search of finding a perfect wireless car charger for a giant Nexus 6 comes to an end. I recently purchased a Pocket Wireless car charger from Amazon with rotatable metal hook that fits both vertical and horizontal air vents. The package also contains cigarette lighter and comes with 12 month warranty. It cost me even less than $40 with free shipping across the USA.
Post a picture with it. What's the point of a charger up on the dash if it covers half the screen? Seems pointless to me.
Ya I don't care for it. I like to flip through music...
I am not sure about this onesince I need full access to the screen at all time
