[HTC Rezound] ChrisFa5:
Amazon Link:http://tinyurl.com/3n8y64p

Ordered this mount for my wife's car, I use a ProClip unit in my car, seems to work pretty well for what it is. Mountek has them available on Amazon every weekday at 07:00 PST, I ordered mine at 08:15 PST and there were only eight left. I paid $23.90 shipped (USPS first class). I am hoping that it will fit my HTC (with extended battery) as well as my wife's OG Droid. I am not too worried about blocking any radio controls while in use because they are all mirrored on the steering wheel. She was pretty adamant about having something that was removable, and I can't stand the windshield mounts that are available.

(Here is the video from their site)

[YOUTUBE]Ef8kTTR72Lg[/YOUTUBE]

Here is the box from USPS, shipped received about a week after ordering. Included was the mount, a piece of adhesive foam, and small instruction sheet.

The mount seems to be built fairly well

This tabbed area inserts into the compact disc slot, then the knob is twisted to expand until "firm" The tabs are soft, so no marring the CD slot.

Here is the adhesive pad.

DON"T USE IT WITH THE EXTENDED BATTERY

The bottom rest is removable to work with a variety of electronics.

Here is my OG Droid mounted, and then the Vigor with the standard battery.

Here is the side profile with the standard battery cover. As a refresher here is the difference between the standard and extended battery covers...

Here is the mount without the bottom plate, holding the Vigor with the extended battery cover.

Here is me shaking it, with the extended battery, no problems with is falling out. Here is a top down view of the foam sides holding the Vigor.

I don't have my wife's car right now, but here is the mount in my Civic (06-11)...

To those unfamiliar, the Civic had a cd slot that is at a angle, here is with the mount installed.

Now with the Vigor installed (with extended battery) portrait and landscape.

Overall I think it is going to work well. I will update this review if I have any issues...

***Update 02-24-2011***

Works well in my wife's Subaru, does not block any of the display. No issues with the Vigor (Rezound) falling out with the extended battery, the foam on the sides works well to keep it in place.
[HTC Rezound] Tim_FJR:
My wife uses one in her car for her Razr. Seems to work well, and she likes it.

But, I tried it with my Rezound and there are a couple problems. With the extended battery, it's almost too thick for the mount. It will hold it, but it's not quite deep enough to hold securely. Seems like the phone would easily pop out if you bump it or even from road vibration. The second problem is that the usb port is blocked so no charging. You might be able to trim the side piece enough to get the charger to plug in, but I haven't tried.
[HTC Rezound] ihavenolife008:
Awesome. Just a thanks for the post. Glad to see a car mount not relying on suction, which my "textured" dash and crap make useless, and i don't want my view blocked at all in my windshield. This is the most useful car mount for me i've seen yet. too bad it'll most likely block me from keeping my Archos 5 IMT from mounting via velcro where i do lol but rarely do i use that awesome beast anymore. Can't wait to get a chance to order one.
[HTC Rezound] ChrisFa5:
Could you shoot a picture of your Rezound (I still despise that name..) in mounted in the unit? Which way are you mounting it?
[HTC Rezound] ChrisFa5:
Updated with Photos and brief overview.
[HTC Rezound] Tim_FJR:
Sorry I never had a chance to get any photos up for you, but yours are great. I didn't realize the bottom plate was removable. That solves the issue of plugging the charger in. And glad to see it holds your phone securely. I think I had a case on mine when I tried it, so maybe that made some difference.

After seeing your review, I think I'll give this mount another try.
[HTC Rezound] ChrisFa5:
Thanks, came in quicker than I expected.
[HTC Rezound] maximus20895:
That's crazy. I have a civic si and wanted to see how it looked and since you ha even one it looks like it works well. I wanted to place it above the big capartment infringement of the shifter. I may get this!
[HTC Rezound] ChrisFa5:
I actually use a ProClip mount for my car, it mounts above the driver right side vent, but it is much more permanent. You on the 8th?

That's genius. Finally no longer have to deal with suction cups
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
It's just a dock to hold the phone in place correct? Doesn't broadcast sound through your car's audio system? Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] ChrisFa5:
Yes it is "just" a dock... I use a dock for navigation, music, & calls. This lets your phone be within reach, not stuck to your windshield, and out of the sun.

This is what I use to "stream" music ect...

[HTC Rezound] redbean25:
I received mine last week, and have been using it for a few days now. I really like it. My CDs still play...yeah I would have to remove it to change the CD, but my car has an in dash 6-CD changer, so I already have them pre-loaded and just switch on the fly.

I'd buy this again...in fact I might buy one for the wife's car.
[HTC Rezound] ChrisFa5:
Glad my little review was able to help, I haven't played a CD in almost two years.:)
[HTC Rezound] allchannels99:
I got this for my wife's Jeep Liberty and it works like a champ!
[HTC Rezound] RoyHinkley:
I used this with my Evo 4G with extended bat. and now my Rezound. I works pretty good but I can't angle it enough so that the phone is facing me directly. Also, it fits fine in my wife's Mazda with 6 disk changer but in my F150 with 6 disk changer it it really tight - even scraped off some of the protective covering of the little tabs that fit into the cd slot. I don't use the changer so I just forced it in and it's not going anywhere, didn't even have to tighten the adjustment screw.
[HTC Rezound] esheesle:
Did you remove the back pad? Mine came with it already on. Tempted to just scrape it off.
[HTC Rezound] SoonerDude:
I just ordered this today. Very similar to the Mountek Snap magnetic model that recently came out. Seems to get a little bit better reviews than the Mountek, but same basic concept.

I bought my phone on Craigslist, don't know if it is network unlocked. How do I check it? I searched Google for over an hour and did not get any lead.

Thank you in advance.
[Atrix 4G General] geekalok:
if I am not missing something, can't you just insert a simcard of a different network and find out if its unlocked or not
[Atrix 4G General] BobbyF:
I dont have one available with me now. I was wondering if there is a code that I could dial to see the network locking status.

Thanks.

[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
you have to obtain a code somehow, and those are pretty much your only two options.
[Atrix 4G General] chrism.brunner:
Try a Google search. Certain phones have other ways that can unlock them. I don't know about the atrix. Call att, they will give you the code. I just did two days ago. No problem.
[Atrix 4G General] jakson0100:
1. Reboot your Motorola mobile phone with an unaccepted SIM card in.

*If the display reads “Enter Special Code”, enter the unlock code and press “OK”

*If the display does not read “Enter Special code”:

2. Press and hold the asterisk (*) key until an entry box is displayed.

3. Type *, #, 3, 2, # and press “OK”

4. Enter your Motorola unlock code and press “OK.”

5. Your Motorola mobile should now display either “Completed” or

“Deleted”
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chriv:
I accidentally overwrote the resolv.conf in /system/etc on my stock rooted Galaxy Nexus.

Cannot anyone tell me what the default contents are?

I currently have the following, which is NOT the default:

nameserver 8.8.8.8

nameserver 8.8.4.4

This works, but I would prefer to get my DNS servers dynamically from my carrier or wireless router (that way I will be able to resolve local machine names).

It is possible that there never was a default /system/etc/resolv.conf.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] TOMAS3896:
My HTC Flyer from Best Buy vibrates 5 times then gives me a yellow light blink.

That is it. Can not turn it on. I pressed both up and down volume at the same time. I think it is bricked unless someone knows how to fix it. Or maybe even direct me to someone who I can send it to that can get it back up and running.

Any recomendations would be appreciated.

A bit of background?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] TOMAS3896:
Bricked HTC Flyer

Was having problems with the flyer just turning itself off. I would then start it up and it would work for a few seconds or a few minutes then out of no where would turn off. I have done a factory reset so many times, thinking it would start working and stop shutting down. Now it won't do anything, now I see why they call them a brick. I hope some one out there has had the same experience and can help me out with this. I have spent too many hours trying to figure out what to do, and have not seen anything that could help. Any idea's?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dsf3g:
Is it completely stock, or have you rooted it and flashed a new ROM?

If it's stock, then you probably have a warranty issue.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] TOMAS3896:
It is rooted

I sent it in to HTC they said it had revolutionary on it, wanted $290.00 to fix it. I am the second owner of the tablet. I rooted my Nook Color. So if someone with more knowledge of this could guide me I might be able to get this working again. Really like this tablet and would take any suggestions.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cnewsgrp:
I think the issue is that your flyer was rooted and s-off by prev seller. You have two choices

1) You want to keep it rooted: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1358758

Uc browser pretty much sucks for android . I sorta like boat browser mini but I hate how all the web browsers on the market display an entire webpage . I just want a single column browser without having to zoom in and out to view things . And I can't seem to find one hence the post . I hate posting requests like this but I've lost all hope .

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] YZ:
I have been using Dolphin for months. It's working very well + it has a lot of add-ons.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
I don't like dolphin because you are stuck with browsing in a zoom mode. Which I hate . I like browsing in a one column view
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] retsam88:
-Opera Mobile is imo best browser atm. Fast, good HTML5 rendering and stable to that.

-Dolphin is nice too, but recent stunt with spyware(and denying that!) makes it unnacceptable to use.

-Firefox is just...too slow, though add ons are quite good.

-opera mini saves a lot of data, though privacy at risk(something for something)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mafioso:
Check the default browser which comes in MIUI roms..it has exactly what you need speed and simplicity along with nice rotation lock and speed dial feature :) Only downside is, you require MIUI rom to have it..

Other than that...try Firefox Beta also, its better than vanilla firefox IMO

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] samoevn:
Hi, do you guys think the Note is too big or not. Because I had the international Galaxy Note and I used it for a week and then sold its thinking I am going to drop it and waste the $700 I paid for. So I sold it for $680.

I think it was buyers remorse :(

So now I ordered the Note again this time from At&t for $300. And thinking that the size was huge and uncomfortable. Maybe if I keept it for a month I was going to get comfortable withe the size.

Your opinion's. Thank you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Corvette Dave:
The size of the screen is why I am purchasing one! I purchased the Infuse for the screen size and wished at the time it was a little bit bigger. I am a heavy user for my job so the larger the screen the less eye strain I have at the end of the day.

Cant wait untill BB gives me a call. Hoping AT&T will let them release before the 19th.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] white note:
I am with you. The screen size is perfect for long days of heavy use and ease on the old eyes. So anxiously awaiting Friday and my White Note!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] planoman:
I will buy it from you for 299 if you do not like it...LOL!

I think it takes a few weeks to get fully used to the size. After a few weeks when I would go back to my skyrocket, it would feels so small. I would kind of dread going back to the skyrocket, but I would because I have a case/holster which is easier when I travel. (I was always paranoid the GNote would slip out of my pocket on a flight). Now that Seidio is coming with the case/ holster combo, I may be going with my GNote more often! The skyrocket will probably be getting sold to make room for the ATT GNote!

The size of the keyboard in portrait is really optimal for typing and texting, no need to switch to landscape. The browser is great and it zooms very well to make reading a pleasure.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SysAdmNj:
Its pretty hard for anyone to answer this for you. Everyone's hand size/shape is different. Since you already ordered the at&t version I would say try to get used to it. You have 30 days.

In 2007, 3.5" felt right.

In 2008, 3.7" felt right.

In 2009, 4.0" felt right.

In 2010, 4.3" felt right.

In 2011, 4.65" felt right.

2012 is the year we come around to 5.3".

By 2013, we will have 6" edge-to-edge displays in the current 5.3" case.

We did the same thing with TV's: 19", 25", 32" 36", 42", 46", 50", 55" and on. Long ago, 42" seemed huge.

By the end of this year, 5" plus will seem normal.

Well that depends, if you have small hands than it can suck since typing on it and holding it will be a pain in the arse, but if you have big hands like me then it's the best phone on the planet. I think that's one reason why Samsung included the S-Pen lol.

Great summary of the evolution of smartphones ever since the original iPhone.

Although in June 2010, the world would have been in greater shock if Dell had even bothered to market/advertise their Streak.

Even if they had done that...They would have still been considered 'way ahead of their time.'

Due to being spoiled with screen real estate,, I'd like to see a 6.0" screen on a phone by like next year.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ryandelman:
My opinion after kicking the tires for the past 3 days: Yes this phone is way too big, period end of story. I can't use it one-handed and I am avg sized (5'10") with slightly above avg sized hands.

HOWEVER.... the features and functionality of the device are so over the top awesome that I am willing to sacrifice the ability to carry another phone that actually feels like a phone in my hand and doesn't look like a boom box on my ear.

In other words, "too big" in the case of this device is a very distinct reality for someone avg sized or smaller like me, but its frankly not a big enough detractor to make me look for a more compact device. If that's not s ringing endorsement for how great a device this is in an overall sense, I don't know what is.

Decided to swing by At&t today as it is release day. I shouldn't have. I already was drooling over this phone, and now the wait until summer is going to be torturous. I can type one handed with ease, and the pen is so neat and useful. And the screen. Wow. I can't believe how sharp it is. Holding my Infuse at a normal distance, I can see some pixelation. Not with the Note, and the screen is so much bigger. I don't even care that it's pentile, because you really have to try hard to see that.

Samsung has nailed what my perfect phone should be with this one. I really think the only phone I will be able to use after the Note will be its successors. Let's hope it's enough of a success for them to make the Galaxy Note a whole series of phones! I really can't get over how amazing this device is.

Edit:

Oh yeah, forgot to say that I will be getting the Ceramic White edition after playing with both today. I was worried that I wouldn't like white on such a large device, but it just looks super clean and more interesting than the Carbon Blue. And to anybody who thinks white phones are for girls, I really think you have some insecurities about yourself, because the white note is an impressive looking device for anybody.
