I know theres a thread on the Touch pro 2 Car mount but i dont know if any of those mounts work for the Tilt 2. I'm looking for something that fits nice and clips to the vent sturdy and also can rotate to landscape. I searched and searched and googled and cant find anything remotely good.
I bought a universal one but it was garbage
I know Proclip / brodit makes great car mounts but i cant justify paying 70 bucks for a car mount. ( 35 for the mount and 30 for the car mount part )
Sorry for making a new thread for this but i see a ton for the Touch pro 2 and still dont know if those will work with the tilt 2. Thanks for the help in advance

dash mount
Best one I've found.... I hate Best Buy but they were the only ones in town with a decent mount. It was 24.99, a little more than I wanted to spend, but well worth it.

These days it seems like you're pulling teeth in terms of getting accessory developers to develop accessories for any non-iPod/iPhone devices...
This is the Bets one I found till now - HERE
most adjustable
I just ordered this one for a Tilt2. For $13 delivered it doesn't look to bad. I don't believe the TP2 exact fit ones will work with a Tilt2. I would be nice if one came out soon.
Looks like my usual vendor, ProClip USA is developing one, but it is not ready yet. Check them out at:
http://www.proclipusa.com/
I've looked at the ProClip. It looks pretty good. The problem is I just can't see spending close to $80 for one. I upgrade phones every 12-16 months Hell, I only spent $99 delivered for my Tilt2...

I did it here.
Again I'm weary of TP2 exact fit holders. That one is labeled for T7373, the Tilt2 is T7377. There is a small size difference. It does look decent though.
I drive a GMC Sierra and have been looking for a dash or vent mount. A windshield mount puts the phone out of arms reach.

Actually this one is available. I've already got one in my truck for my Tilt 2.
be VERY careful with vent mounts. Your AC can make your phone cold causing it to condensate when you exit the vehicle and walk around outside ESP in high humidity areas thus voiding your warranty
proclip
i bought the proclip car kit for the tilt. now i have the tilt2.
the car mount fits great, good location. i agree it is expensive, but replacing the phone holder for the tilt2 is half the cost. still great fit and location.

Does the holder you're referencing allow you to rotate the tilt 2 from portrait to landscape?

igrip
i have the igrip custom mount for my fuze, i like it a lot, and the mount detaches from the goose neck. they make several mount options that can connect to the custom clip. the have one for my mountain bike, so i can attach it on the trails and use some of the gps features with a program i downloaded here on xda. They also have some more solid mounts that dont move around as much as the goose neck. I am getting a tilt 2 real soon, as soon as my contract is up for upgrade... (next week).. would love to find a custom clip for it that works with the igrip mounting options, has anyone seen one. i dont see a custom clip for the tilt 2 on their website.

Anyone recommend an in car mount for TP2 (for when using as sat nav).
Thanks
I've used Brodit mounts for several HTC phones, and have been very satisfied. The one for the TP2 will let you mount vertically, or horizontally with the keyboard open or closed. They're a bit pricey, but well worth it.
I've used one of the Rocketfish generic mounts from Bestbuy before, which is about $25. It actually worked pretty well, but is also quite chunky -- definitely not the most svelte option available. However, it does have the added advantage of being versatile enough to hold a variety of products (MP3 player, TP2, GPS, etc.)
Brodit mount
I have just realised that I had a Brodit mount, it was for the dash not the windscreen, but I have just adapted my old Ipaq mount to it and it looks and works a treat. I had never heard of Brodit before, but they are really good.

i ordered one based on a recomondation from here from obostore.com. it is built for the touch pro 2 so it snaps in perfectly, rotates 360 and keyboard can slide open. best of all its 5 bucks with free shipping. its coming from hong kong so it took about 10 business days. the one negative as that the suction is not as strong as id would like it to be but if you set the gooseneck where you want and leave it alone its fine. i hope that helps. you cant go wrong for 5 bucks. let me know if you have any questions.
Anyone have any experiences, good or bad, with vehicle mounts for their samsung galaxy sII i777?
I'm looking for one that will fit with my Case Mate Tough Case on (Excellent case btw, I highly recommend)
From what I can see the samsung mount doesn't work with cases. I'd like one that can at least cleanly route the audio and charging cable to it. But ideally it would have it's own connectors and be permanently plugged into my car. I'd like to just sit down and dock my phone in it and go.
Is there anything out there just like the samsung mount that will work with the case on? This is the samsung mount I'm referring to:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-ECS-V...UE22/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1321380855&sr=8-3
I'm in the same boat as you are. My 3gs had this from Belkin.
http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Tuneba..._1_2?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1321389164&sr=1-2
Looking for a mount that will do the same.
I'm really hoping someone can shed some light on this.
Maybe there are some decent universal ones out there that can be recommended?
Took forever to find it but here's the one I got:
ebay.com/itm/Platinum-MobileDock-Dash-Windshield-Suction-Mount-UUM10BB-Universal-MP3-Player-/140633919502?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item20be6f500e
Been an awesome mount. Bought back in July. For a few weeks it was in my glove box and the pad was not even close to being sticky. Washed it up and it's back to like new sticky.
With the opening between the two rest points on the bottom the power cord fits perfectly.
Stays on the windshield and dashboard with no issues.
And with as small as the support arm is, it moves very little from bumps in the road.

ExoGear Mount
There is another thread on this, but I picked this one up at amazon for $18. Awesome mount, holds any phone. While it doesn't have a connection it will hold any phone anywhere with or without a case.
http://www.exogear.com/products-exomount-car-mount-holder.html
these mounts fit a sgs2 with an otterbox commmuter case on it
http://www.slipgripcarmounts.com/Using-Commuter-Case_c_21890.html
don't know if it will fit the tough case. I haven't used the mount before
I did buy one for my naked captivate and it worked great. I burned through 3 universal car mounts before I got the slip grip for my captivate
I bought a universal one from walmart for $15. Sits on the dashboard and adjust the holder itself to fit the phone. Used the google navi on the phone while traveling from the Jersey shore to Buffalo NY and back and didn't have a single problem.
The device never popped out nor did the actual unit move.
This is the one that I am looking at.
Mounts in the CD slot of your radio... of course if you change out CDs often this may not be the best for you.
I don't change CDs that often so I think it will be ideal.
What you all think?

I believe the at&t version charges at .7 amps or something. My Griffin Technology 1 Amp PowerJolt Dual Micro would be bad for my phone because I was gonna parter it with the ExoGear Universal ExoMount for driving. Would that kill my battery? This looked good till I saw the 2.1 amps. http://www.amazon.com/Potato-Techno...Android/dp/tech-data/B004NQDU5E/ref=de_a_smtd
Check out the mounts by ProClip. They are not cheap but are well made. I have a similar one to this link below that I bought several years ago for my old ipod. I still use it and have since upgraded to the ipod touch. Now will be replacing that with the SG2. Works great. However since mine is older there is quite a bit of space between the back of the holder and the phone. I simply added a piece of the foam insert you typically get when buying a phone case. Works great and now the phone/itouch doesn't tilt back.

It will be fine as that is the Max amperage that the charger can support. The phones hardware charging system limits current.
here's my thread on the hard wired proclip

this particular one will not work with a case, as the phone fits very snug as it is, which works perfect for me.
I have always used Brodit cradles for all my devices over the last few years. I find them reliable, very strong and easy to put together.
For some reason Brodit havent released a cradle for this device yet - has anyone got any ideas where i can get one that is for vents?
thanks

There are a few on ebay in the $12-15 range and some on Amazon in the $25 range. I just did a search for Samsung 7.7 vent mount.
sorry - for got to mention - i already bought one from ebay - that is the problem - hence my post
the ones on ebay are flimsy, lowsy horrible things...make sure you dont buy one. the ball and socket which allows it to swivel lost its stiffness after about 10 minutes of use and i just took it off. also the connection to the vent is weak at best. the connection to the actual plastic is so weak that when I turned a corner once the thing fell out!
i had a galaxy tab 7 inch and the brodit cradle for that was nice and solid - you would have to tug hard to move it anywhere - also the ball and socket was adjustable by just making the screw tighter

U r a legend! I been checking that site for months and gave up last week!
Always the way!
Hmm I've bought the official car mount already,
and i'm waiting it to arrive...
Just wondering, what's the advantage of car vent compared to car mount?
isnt' carmount more universal? because with this you have to choose clips specific to your car?
Very tempting, the good is that for my car, Dodge Caliber, there two options, the vent and center console, i might go with the center console option
Edit: i went to the US retailer website but they do not have the tab holder listed yet only the one for the original tab, but they do have the vent and center console mount, the mount is $29.99 a bit much and i wonder how much will be for the tab holder.

It's not available in the US on the ProclipUSA website. Didn't know brodit and Proclip were somehow associated. Always bought Proclip, thinking it was designed and made in the USA? Maybe it is.
Whatever the case, I just called Proclip, it will be available in the USA next week, they'll send me an email about it. Can't order it right now.

Finally got mine and it sits solid as a rock to the left of my HTC sensation XE!! sweeeet!!
bluetooth straight to audio my JVC AVX55 stereo!!! while the htc goes to the handseat bluetooth
I agree that Brodit mounts are superb - I got mine - Brodit Passive Car Cradle Holder Tilt Swivel for Samsung Nexus S (#511227) from Amazon UK. It is rock solid.
My Brodit from Proclip arrived Thursday. Its really nice. I originally had a ram mount in my truck for the Motorola xoom. The Proclip is nice but I ordered the console mount instead of the vent mount for Toyota 2005 Tacoma. I'm using the console mount piece as a cable organizer and just bolted the pro clip backing to the Ram mount fitting since the holes matched. I am hoping to post pictures and review soon.
Can anyone tell me a good cell phone holder that doesn't mount phone in front of vents and doesn't put holes in the interior. I like the cup holder versions okay. The only one I find says standard size. I did find some good brackets but I'd have to take the dash apart a plus Id like it to be portable anyway.
Any ideas would be great. Thanks for any advice.
Google Proclip, you'll be glad you did.

If you have a thin case like a spigen hybrid case the stock Samsung car cradle fits just fine. You just fit in it. No case it fits with ease. With a thin case its a snug fit but it fits. Couldn't do like an otterbox it anything in it though.

No not at all, on the actual cigarette holder there's a adjustable knob that tightens it. Only weird thing is it doesn't charge on the 2 amp setting but charges very well on 1amp. Maybe it's mislabeled? Or maybe my cable.

I've been using ExoGear ExoMount car mounts for years. I have tent original version in black, and the new second version in white. They work great and allow you to use almost any device in them, as the mount is adjustable. The Note 3 in a bulky case fits without a problem, as will smaller devices. The are available in black or white.
Recently I just got my TechMatte 1 touch car mount on the mail. It is awesome and you only need one hand to get your phone locked in to it! My Note 3 with a TPU case fits in this mount great, but with a larger case it wouldn't. I like that the TechMatte mount has a small button behind where the phone sits, and to lock the phone in you just set it in place and push the phone against that button which makes the arms grab on to the phone and lock it in until you're ready to remove it. Works awesome!
The ExoGear ExoMount is about $20, but the TechMatte mount is only $7.99 from Amazon right now! I expected it to be cheaply made and not function very well considering the price. I was shocked when it arrived as it is constructed very well, has 2 places to adjust the viewing angle, and works flawlessly!! I highly recommend the TechMatte car mount if you use a TPU case or or something similiar. If you use a large case, then the ExoGear will be the best choice.
Here's the link to the TechMatte car mount on Amazon : http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00G3KN9LI/ref=mp_s_a_1_8?qid=1383323938&sr=8-8&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70
TechMatte also makes a car mount similar to the ExoGear ExoMount. It is much cheaper in price, but I've never tried it so I can't speak of it's quality or function. Here's the link to it on Amazon : http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00FEOT32S/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1383323938&sr=8-2&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70

If you don't use your CD player (or don't switch CDs often), the Mountek mount is excellent. I've been using one for a couple of years, for phones and GPSs, and never had a problem, even on bumpy roads.

I love the Mountek. I think it is the best mount ever. The only bad thing is I just bought a Ford Flex with MyFord Touch, Nav and a 10" display, so that mount now blocks the screen. But I have no need to mount my new Note 3 since I just pair it with bluetooth, so it just sits in the center console tray now.

Thanks for showing the button. I've been wanting to get a car mount for awhile but the ones I looked like just didn't seem like they would lock into place very securely.
I do like TechMatte products. I have their screen protector on my iPhone 4S and my best friend has one for his Galaxy. Very nice products, great pricing. I think you may have convinced me to get the car mount. I could really use one.
