Charging cradle? In landscape? - HTC EVO 3D

I am very concerned about the charging port being positioned on the side of the phone. I love the OEM HTC charging cradle for the Evo 4G. I set it in the cradle and I can easily see the screen from my desk (and flip through things) while it is charging.
How am I going to get the same effect with the 3d? I suppose that it could sit in landscape mode (I saw a 3rd party charger like that), but Sense doesn't go landscape, right?

Who knows lol. It could if they wanted it to, I'm sure that issue was thought of though

The new Sense does landscape quite nicely, no worries. And here is the HTC Dock

Nice looking cradle!!

I hope someone carries that for less than $50, screw that price.

cradle availability
Has anyone purchased the cradle yet? Or are there any alternatives for less than $50? I don't even see it listed on BB's site anymore....

Really? It does? I would like to see that can you share the setting to make that happen?
Now I do know there is a Dock Mode setting that shows in Landscape but it does not allow you the full use of your phone. I also know that most apps will work in landscape. But I am almost 100% sure (and would love to be wrong on this) that the sense interface does NOT do landscape on this phone.

+1 i second that statement. sense 3.0 does not have landscape capabilities on the homescreen...

i have been searching for the cradle if anyone has one please let me know where you ordered it! every site i tried says they are sold out.....

While playing with the phone I noticed Dock mode... Pretty sure if docked it will automatically go to this state and there the landscape problem won't exist... Dockmode is a lil weak imo tho
Bussin Caps from my 3D shooter

Has anyone found or picked up the official HTC cradle yet?0, And if they have is the enough room for a case, just asking because the photo shows the phone pretty tight in the slot without any case

doubtful that the case will will work this type of dock

Kidigi makes one.
It's for pre ordaer, but it has a second battery slot in back and is only $31. They have one without the second battery slot for cheaper. They look nice and the ones they made for the og evo were great.

Desk Stand?

Just wondering if anyone has bought a desk stand for their Transformer, any to recommend? I've searched and although I didn't see one specifically made for the Trans, there are some universal stands available.
I don't want the official keyboard attachment, thought I'd better mention that just in case.
There is one on amazon (US though). It's perfect and everyone keeps asking where I got it from. I fits any tablet really. There's a thread on the XOOM forum somewhere

I think I've seen that one in a search result, how do you find it for stability? I'd hate to have something that's easy to topple.
There's loads on Amazon but none particularly cheap. Cheapo option is to use a picture frame or plate stand. Sounds stupid but they do the job. It's not like you'll see them once the pad is on it. Either that or you could make one yourself if you're handy with tools, and don't burn down the house.

That thing is stable as a rock! I put it every where... I even keeps my TF upright when it's standing on the mattress at night! It has padded rubber feet and the same rubber at the part where the tablet rests so it cannot slip easily. Well worth the money and it's foldable....

Thanks for the recommendation. I just received mine today and it is working great so far. Super stable.
Good grief the prices for the Arkon stand range from just under a tenner to £37.58! Someone's having a laugh!
Told ya. This one looks kinda funky though: LINK Can't see why it wouldnt work with the tf.

Its been reduced to $12, decent price really.
The biggest issue with that stand (I have one) is that you can't really have the charger connected whilst it is sitting on it.

Why cant you have the transformer's port at the top, and plug it in that way? The screen will adjust fine. You need a usb 3.0 extension cable of course though.

[Q] Which kickstand case?

Which kickstand case do you prefer with your 3VO and why?
Seems like the official HTC case wont be able available for another week or two while the Seidio is already available at Best Buy. Seidio has the charging port on the bottom

It depends on which way the kickstand flips out, in which case, HTC's flips in the direction where the phone's usb port is pointed up, allowing for charging while using the case.
I want the HTC case more than any other case. I want a case that still allows the phone to be slim as I carry it in my pocket.

hes right
i just seen the other case with the charging port at the top. I got the one from best buy so i think ill take it back now lol
Thanks for the replies guys. I was still on the fence but you overwhelmingly voted for one of the two. Guess I'll wait for it to come out in the next few weeks. I got a cheap silicone one from Amazon to hold me over, better get delivered today LOL
Yeah I just went to Radio shack, The sprint store, and Best Buy and they definitely don't have the Official HTC kickstand case yet..
Don't understand how HTC wouldn't have the case come out the same time as the phone.
when you set the phone down, are the cameras touching the table? I want a case that is just thick enough to set it down without scratching the camera glass
I want that HTC kickstand case for my phone, and I think it will still fit on the holster that I want to buy which is this:
http://www.vanmobilegear.com/htc-ev...er-design-leather-holster-case-accessory.aspx
The Seidio kickstand (Best Buy) is PLASTIC!!! No way I'm getting that, I'll wait for the official HTC.
BTW - the phone is so awesome as is that root isnt necessary unless HTC fails to get us ICS in a timely matter. Well only necessary for screen shot apps and ad blocking LOL
I'm surprised no one has mentioned this, but there are a lot of apps that only work in landscape mode where the charging port would have to be down anyways. One of the big ones being Netflix. I like the design of the HTC one better, but the kickstand flips the wrong way to be suitable for all apps and that's really disappointing to me. Why didn't they just put the port on the bottom like before?

Unlike the stock hero, 3vo rotates the other way in most apps I tried. I think netflix would too.

I can definitely say it's a nice thing to have, but maybe not for what it's been retailed for. I mainly use it on my desk at work, and I have one on my nightstand for my overnight charging and alarm clock. If you find a good deal on one around the $20 range, I would definitely recommend getting one.
As for the car dock, that's been a great addition. It charges, and make it easy to use for navigation. I haven't taken it on a trip, but when I do, I trust it'll do wonders for me.

As for this troll, here. He/she felt the need to PM me directly to tell me that I troll and rage on the forums, and that I don't possess the knowledge to "rage" on the forums. I've asked that they either not bother me with their accusations, or come clean on who they are, and what qualifies them to tell me that my conversations on these boards are unacceptable.

Quick question for those of you using the cradle. With I Grip, I know that once docked, it launches the Car Panel automatically. Does using the cradle launch anything in particular?
Also, since I am on the topic, do you any of you guys know if there is a way to turn off the auto launch

When you put it into the cradle, it launches the "Dock Mode" application automatically.
And yes, there is a way to turn off the Auto-Launch feature for the Dock Mode application. Open the application and go to Menu > Settings, then uncheck "Auto-Launch."
You can even set it to automatically turn on your HotSpot when connected. Just saw that, pretty cool.

Mine is the stock dock and it goes to portrait easily.
Am I missing something?
I'm not using the stock mount, just the dock itself. It's mounted with a universal mount that doesn't swivel. I recommend the craigsdock because overall, its much nicer than the iBolt.
I use this iBolt ProDock. Fits the extended battery nicely. Hoping it lasts because I am tired of buying a new dock if and when I buy a new phone.

I have the CraigsDocks dock as well. Not only is it universal, and made of aluminum instead of plastic, but it is made by a guy who has outstanding character. I bought one of the original docks, and it worked fine. It ended up on the floor of my car (kids...) and got bent. When I tried to straighten it, I broke it. I contacted Craig to inquire about a new piece for it, and a new suction cup mount (he doesn't make these, just sells them as a courtesy), and he said that he had made improvements since I got mine, and that he was unhappy with the strength of the original ones, so he sent me out an entire new dock, cable and all. Talk about going above and beyond... I BROKE IT, and told him so, but he still felt he was responsible and sent me a new one. He WILL get more business if I ever need another dock, and I will sing his praises here as well!!!

Charger stand

Anyone have tips on making a charger stand or dock?
I basically have to have my watch on its face to charge.
Mine charges perfectly fine.. Never need to put it on its face.
I have the gunmetal with the brown leather band. I'm able to set it upright on the band with the band open. It doesn't look great but at least it's face up.
Would a *spit* applewatch stand work, or would the weight of the watch cause it to fall off? Could mould a disc from plastic or something to fit the circle and poke the charger through for the Zen?
You could use a simple wooden dowel with a 45° angle and screw the charging kit on top. (it looks like the old charging kit doesn't fit and we have to wait for a new version)
Built one
I've got the same Idea and built a dual Charger today. Looks great and works great, too

Dude that is flipping sweet. In fact I think I will make that tonight. My phone wirelessly charges, so I would want to have a hole on the base to fit the puck. I actually think I would like the phone to be inclined with a footer, so I can just drop it without having to worry about alignment.
Wow what a great idea. It would make great gifts too.
The only problem I would have is I have a metal band that doesn't open, so I would have to make a L bracket so I can slide it over.
Thanks. Pls upload a picture of your finished work

Yes, yes I do. One of the things I have found that helped a bit was to go into the Battery in the Settings, hit the 3dot menu, go into Battery Optimization and stop optimizing Android Wear. Hasn't solved the problem, but it has helped.
Either this is an issue with the Nexus 6P's bluetooth or the Zenwatch 2 is screwing bluetooth up big time. I've been having issues with my bluetooth headphones and with uConnect in my truck too. Eventually I need to take the ZenWatch 2 out of the equation and see if my BT problems go away. But it's been bad.

You can use this with any Apple Watch stand and you have one for under $30.

Thanks for this. I ordered mine from Amazon, and was surprised how well it worked. Bought an elander stand to go with it and it's pretty well perfect. Only wish there was more hardware/software support for this watch, as I'm finding that there isn't a lot out there for it. Shame too, because I think it's a very underrated watch.
If I may make a suggestion, the imprinted logo on the bottom doesn't make for adhering a sticky patch on it all that great.

Has anyone found a source for spare charging cables yet? Google Store doesn't allow me to put in cart... Must be because I'm in Canada. :/
