I'm looking to find something decent to stick my note 3 in while I use runkeeper on a run. Does anyone use the note 3 for running?
I used to use my s2 (and I still could), but I have a galaxy gear and would like to use the runkeeper app while running. Obviously I can't do that with the s2.
Also I used to use an armband and bought a cheap one for this but it feels and looks ridiculous.
Any ideas?

Nike hydration belt.
Because attaching a Note 3 to any part of your body is ridiculous.
This is what I was thinking about getting.

I'm with hznberg on this one, don't get an armband. I have one (designed for n2 originally), and I feel like a goof running with it. Get yourself a hydration belt/fanny pack. I have a nathans half marathon belt I use now, fits really snug but fits. Still looking for a suitable bluetooth set as the cord gets annoying from that length.

This is what I (and my wife with a note 2) use http://www.thegrommet.com/made-in-the-usa/flipbelt-athletic-personal-pack-all
I'm 6'3 and about 190 and I got the large size. It fits a caseless note 3 albeit pretty snug. If I had it to do over, I'd get the XL which would probably fit my cased note but Im fine taking the case off when I run. I also use a samsung bluetooth reciever that accepts a 2.5 jack so I can use whatever buds/headphones I want to plug in. Works out nicely. I put the note in a leather fanny when Im riding though because I need keys, garage opener etc.
I'm sure there are cheaper things out there but I like this

That's pretty sweet. I bought a belt clip sac that had great reviews but ended up hating it. Your option looks much more comfortable. I usually just run with my phone in my hand, lol. I use these bluetooth headphones and love them, they last long and are super easy to pair. The volume is solid too.

Oh and how is a phanny pack cooler or less awkward looking then an arm band. Phanny packs should stay in the 80's.

I'll just copy and paste what I put in the Zerolemon thread I imagine this would work with most large cases seeing as the ZL case is huge.
Just in case anyone has been looking for one I found an armband that actually fits with the ZL case, granted it's snug but fits great a little hard to get in at first because of the side grips but once you use it a few times it will loosen up. I searched but didn't see anyone posting about an armband for the N3 that'd fit with the ZL case everything else was for naked or slim cases. I got it for 12 bucks shipped and sent it one day shipping ups which was nice. It came with cheap pink headphones (I just gave them to my kids) they got the same with different headphones for a few bucks more. It's listed for the Galaxy Mega but is perfect for the ZL/N3 combo. Hope this helps someone!

I personally have all three of these from Naztech. My favorite is the last one. They are all a universal fit and the HD fits very well in all of them. I even leave my silicon cover on when I slide it in. They come with arm straps as well. I've been using it for over 8 months now. Used it through marathon and triathlon training so I can definitely say they are durable and long-lasting.
hey,
the one from rungps is very good. i got it a month ago and i use it at the gym, for running and on the bike.

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.

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.

Has anybody found a good car dock for this? I've been using this one http://amzn.com/B0089VO7HE which I like quite a lot, but the charge port is obscured by those rests at the bottom. Also I think the One max is a bit too heavy for it, as it slowly angles down with time.
Anybody find a good car dock that works well with the One max? Most I find are either really bulky, with a bunch of adjustable joints, or would cover up the charge port or buttons on the side. Verizon's website says this http://www.verizonwireless.com/accessories/windshield-mount fits it, but I was curious if anybody had found any others before I went ahead and bought this. All the reviews say this one seems to bounce around quite a lot as you drive.
I had a Ibolt with my note 2 and it worked great; no bouncing or shifting.
Dont know if they have one for the max yet, but here is what it looks like. You can email or call them and see though..

That looks pretty sweet. Looking at the one for the Galaxy S3/S4/Note 2/Note3 (http://amzn.com/B00AOCSFYC) it looks like it might work fine for the One max. You'd have to face the phone the other way so the top mount wasn't touching the power/volume buttons, but that shouldn't be a big deal.
they have a website and an 800 number you can call and ask about it

might want to be careful with getting one designed for samsung devices since they have a tendency to flip the usb port
i use the same one i used with my dna, which looks to be the same general design. and all i do is slide the phone over a little so the top brace doesnt sit on the power button
http://www.amazon.com/iBOLT-xProDock-Kit-for-HTC/dp/B00AOCUP6S
FWIW I just kept my Samsung dock (http://amzn.com/B0089VO7HE) and broke off the bottom right support, which was blocking the USB charge port on the One max. It doesn't look as good, but I melted the plastic with a lighter to remove most of the rough edges, so at least it's now functional, and can handle my DNA or my One max.
I sold my dock for my note 2 on Ebay when I got this phone..
wondering if there are any other car dock options out there, reasonably priced..
thanks!

But can you put the phone in the HTC dock while the case is on it? I have this case http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00G1PI73K/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I ordered this dock a few days ago; less than 1/2 the price, and it looks like it will fit with a case on the phone, as long as its 3.4 inches or less in total width..
Do people not have many tried and trusted docks they use? I'm using a universal tablet phablet car holder which is rubbish. It was fine back when I had a iPad mini. And my Xperia ZU because they had bigger bezels around screen but with this the 3 hooks take up a cm on phone plus its off centre as hooks would touch power button and vol. Do people have solutions. I have a HTC flip case at present and will most likely get a power flip case. But want a holder to allow for that.

I got this Proclip Extra Large Adjustable and hopefully won't have to get another even if my next phone is slightly bigger. It fits my One Max nicely with a TPU case and some room for growth. It says Note 2 and 3 which just means it's big. The phone slides in/out easily and has a little room in the back for air flow. No problem plugging/unplugging the charger.
The seller Crogs571 has been around these forums for a while and I've bought a couple other things from him.

I grabbed one of these from a Running store a while back and have used it with my Galaxy S II (T989), Nexus 4, and now my Nexus 6. The nexus 6 is a bit of a tight fit but it works perfectly and does not fall down so long as you tighten the band correctly and have it above your hips, and not on them. I pair this with a cheaper BT stereo headset while running because I can't stand cords at all while working up a sweat.

Just had a 3 miles run with running buddy 6+. It attaches very well with my track pants. Nexus 6 snugs nicely (seems like it will fit well with snap on case) and do not bounce while running. It do feel awkward mainly due to how big phone is. I think will get used to in a while. Its definitely better than arm bands. Attached few pictures.
I was running yesterday with the Google Nexus 6 Easy Fitting Sport Case and Armband Combo from SUPCASE.
I'm really happy with the armband. It holds the Nexus 6 perfectly in place.

Does the rubber case part of the armband easily come off or is it pretty tight on the phone? I was thinking about getting this one.
On the front the case covers all the non-display area. The Phone sits tight in the case. To get the phone out I always pull on an edge on the bottem (2nd photo). So I have no problems to get the phone out of the case. The whole case consits of rubber.

Awesome. Thanks for the detailed reply and photos. Looks like I'll be purchasing one then!
I've always used TuneBelt. I went through AB86 for the Galaxy Nexus, then AB88 for the Nexus 5 (I had to order the AB88 from Germany because it was not available in the UK at the time).
As again, the TuneBelt is not available in the UK yet, I found this one on Amazon and gave it a try as it was so cheap http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00QV6849G?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00 although knowing it was going to be crap.
Well, it's not completely crap, but you get what you pay for, no surprise, and it's too tight. It came with the cardboard insert for the Note 4. It's even tight for the Note 4! (tried with my son's)
So I just went ahead and ordered the AB92 from the Netherlands http://www.ipodhoes.nl/tune-belt-ab92-sport-armband.html
I probably won't be using it as armband at the gym as the phone is so big for my arm it looks ridiculous , but it's still more protection than just the case and with BT earphones I don't need it on me but I like to be able to see the screen for the HR monitor (with a pouch style it would not be possible).
I'll post pics when it arrives.

Following from my post above, I have just received the TuneBelt and here are the pics (lots so I'm linking to my G+ post).

I'm using a Spigen SlimArmour case which is still quite big and it fits very well, it would even take a bigger case.
If you don't use a case, it might be a bit too big, maybe the AB91 would be best.

Any recommendations? I have only found one made for the N6 but there maybe one fit for the note series our iPhone 6+ that will work.
This is what I found: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OHFHOZ8/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_.WRCub1FY0X05

awesome! im getting my nexus 6 this week and i already have my seidio case for it. this is perfect! 16" max so looks like i gotta get the extender (i hate having to spend more money!). so i take it the headphone ports won't work, but i guess i can use my bluetooth headset instead

is this the one? looks like it's a little cheaper than their actual site, and i do have to buy the extension piece as well, so if i can save a few bucks here and there that would be great
I have the same one that xaraxx posted and love it

Comes with screen protector, though I use mine with Zagg
Erm, the link leads to a pair of earphones?
Do you mean this one?

I must say I much prefer my black version. This seems like too much of a dirt magnet to me.

It's not exactly a magnet - I've had mine a mine a month and it looks fine
I bought one a few months back , in fact bought 2 as i had misplaced the one and later found it ,
For me they are just uselss, huge protection but bloats this beauty like a buffalo, becomes so much more difficult to handle the phone with one hand.
Certainly not for me , but if you have clumsy hands and your phone tends to fall a lot then go for it with eyes closed , nothing can ever protect a phone better than OTTERBOX
