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.
Where did you get the car kit? Can you show a picture of it? I can't find one.

I bought it the same time as the phone, from my local Verizon corporate store. I will try to add pics later.

I found this image online, the charging port is at the back of the holding fixture.... very easy to install and remove phone.

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. ...

You can't help but appreciate the irony of telling phone to "Listen" to your text message and yet it never hears.. Reminds me of being married..
Does anyone have a part number for the Motorola car charger that also has audio out? For $40 Motorola could have included the car charger IMHO.

This is what Motorola has on their website.

Sorry, can't post links yet. Add www and take out the space after .com
It doesn't have the Razr HD on the compatibility list, but it looks like the cable that was included in the original Razr car dock.
I ordered one and will let you know if it works.

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.

But for the razr hd it is not available yet.
The old brodit holder from my razr maxx fits the hd very well.
The only thing what I have done was a hole making for the micro usb.

Are you able to plug in charger while the phone is in the holder?
I bought this one, it is awesome.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004Z8ZLOS
I like it because it is a solid mount and it's not bulky. The lack of bulk gives you access to all buttons and plugs, without looking weird or sitting in the mount incorrectly. Also, it really looks like it was designed to hold the phone in landscape, so it doesn't look like the mount is turned "sideways".
Can you put a picture if you don't mind please. Also what kind of car charger are you using. I want to put the mount on the left side and want to get the long enough power cable.

If I remember to bring the camera in the morning, I'll take one tomorrow.
I am just using the cable that came with the phone and a generic USB cigarette light adapter. It definitely would not reach all the way to the left side of the driver.
These phones still accept standard micro usb charger. I use my retractable one i had for my g2x. Long reach and can take up slack with push of a button. Can get then anywhere for $10.
Bought this off ebay. Arrived today. Very nice dock, minimalistic and it comes with a micro usb plug that is hidden behind the dock and plugs into phone to charge it. To power it, you just plug another micro usb cord into the bottom of the dock to your power source. Haven't put it in the car yet. Will test it out on the way to work tomorrow.

For those who are looking for the Motorola Rapid Charger locally, I ran into a guy at Best Buy who was the regional manager for the mobile department. He too has a Note. I explained the issues I'm having and what we all came up with as a resolution. Funny his he already had that Motorola Rapid charger.
Anyways, he pointed out the car dock kit
For the Droid X and X2. It comes with the very same charger we all are looking for. Here's the bonus: it was originally 49.99 but on clearance for 24.99. Not as good as ebay for 7.59 but I figured I had a 50 gift card after I took all those other chargers and cables back. So I bought the kit!
Here's the REAL bonus: not only does it have all the stuff for a car dock (although its for a Droid), but when.I got to the register, it rang up for 9.99!
I bought all 3 they had in stock.... ;-)
Check your local BB for availability if you don't want to wait for it to ship from ebay or amazon.
Sadly though, I'm still not charging while in use... :-(

Why's it gotta be with a BUILT-IN microUSB? Why can't you use the cable that came with your phone? I'd go with the link I posted in a heartbeat. Sure, you'd need to sacrifice a microUSB cable, but the 2.5mm is built-in. It's also $10.50 free 2day ship. I'm checking out my cart as we speak.

I have one already with the built in iPhone charger..And I paid like 8 bucks a year ago.the reason why I want with built in microusb is my iPod charges and at the same time transmits my music through FM channel. I also don't have to carry aux jack to listen to my music since its plays my music via FM station. I don't have to carry my iPod charger to charge.
I was wondering if I could do the same with my Galaxy and Vortex.
You have to remember iPhones are not the same style phones as ours. Yes they have a headphone jack but there charger is meant to transfer data to play music while ours is just PC to phone and charge I doubt its designed to out put any type of audio through the charging port. The one I linked is all built in but the price is a tad high. You'll have to choose what will work best but like I said an iPhone style dock is going to be impossible I think

Best FM Transmitter ever
I just found this on WOWparts.com for only $10.68. It is way better than I have expected for the price. The transmitter is compatible with USB, 3.5 mm and even the SD card. Easy to handle. I drive a lot and this transmitter has made the driving less boring with music. Highly recommend for everyone.
I had no idea so many people still used FM transmitters.
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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

but if you get a discount you save some $ at vzw
What is this mount we are talking about? I could use one for this guy.
Anyone get one of these yet?? Mine from Amazon finally shipped today. Looking forward to having a car mount again.
Hrmm... For some reason I was thinking the iBolt mount would have a built in wireless charging pad too. Bummer. Would be awesome of one of these would come out with a wireless charger built into them.
I can't find this thing anywhere. The one on Verizon says it only works with the Incredible LTE.
It's on amazon. Search for ibolt xprodock for HTC.

Ordered one from Amazon, shipped quickly. The mount is well made, and the extra long usb charging cord is nice if you need that. However, plugging in the mini usb end to the phone is a pain in the butt once the phone is in the mount. I would say that is just the design of the phone and not an issue with the mount.
The pictures and description of the mount made me think the mini usb charging tip was a firm metal arm that would make plugging in easier, it is just reinforced in the plastic so it keeps a bend to it (like Gumby).
Getting the phone in and out of the mount is fairly easy with one hand, the spring loaded clamp seems a little aggressive to me....the phone is definitely not going to fall out
I got my mount in over the weekend. Love the mount - I'm using it with a proclipusa mount and iBolts ball adapter. I prefer this mount over the proclipusa mount I had for my Thunderbolt. I haven't tried using the charging chord yet so I can't speak to that - as said above it was different than what I was expecting from the pictures.

I like the proclipusa mount as well. I believe the ibolts ball adapter you're talking about is the AMPS plate found here, correct? I will try this.

Yes, that's it.
What charge are you using? After an hour of navigation and Pandora my phone will drop from 100% to 60% while charging using a generic usb adapter.

I just use the USB that came with the phone, plugged into a mini aux/usb socket. I don't have much of a commute, so I don't charge in the car very often.

I was getting "Insufficient Power" messages on my DNA from my enercell(radioshack) branded dual USB DC Charger. I just purhcased the Verizon Wireless DC charger with integrated Micro USB cable and additional USB slot ($29.99). Seems to work well.

Radioshack sells a couple Dual USB DC Chargers, but the amperage is quite low on one of them. Definitely get the one with the higher amperage as it is the same price (at least at mine).
