[AT&T LG Optimus G] viper3256:
My Solution

Hey guys, I just got a new LGOG a couple of weeks ago (All stock and not rooted) and have been browsing this forum for ideas. A little background on my previous setup: I have a 2010 Civic and come from a Atrix 4G, plus being a person who spends a lot of time driving for work I loved the dock for the Atrix. I even loved the stock customizable Car Dock Software as well. But a fellow Car traveler turned me on to Car Home Ultra.

Now with the LGOG I wanted a similar setup,

Dock I am using:

Can't post links until 10 posts sorry:

iBolt ProDock - Search Amazon $26

Dock was smaller than I though and the LGOG did not fit until I put on the larger legs. And now it fits with or without my case (See below for my case) Plus I love that I can manage my one cable in the back of the dock. It comes with Air vent mounts, but I need it in the windshield. I will actually take pictures when I arrive a location to check in and having this dock allows full view with the camera. (you will see in the pictures below I have the phone all the way to the left for clearance for the camera) I also bought a left angle micro-b 3ft cable for power since it seems cleaner.

Using this Bluetooth setup my wife used before she go her new phone:

Belkin Bluetooth Car Handsfree - $50

The reason I use this is because it eliminates the 3.5 cable plus Android has always had issues with Notification and the headphones. When on headphones/aux this phone will mute the audiobook I have playing and play a distorted alert through the speaker (Non AUX speaker) then nothing until 4 seconds later my audiobook comes back. (I hate this when a good part of a book comes) I live off alerts and if I mute them I lose work. But when I muted the phone one time, the Notifications worked great, they played through the headphone/AUX and didn't skip music/audiobook. But I missed lot of emails/call when I am not in the car since I forgot to take it off silent.

Case I bought so I can still see the red notification light through the case:

TMax Smoke Checker TPU Case Cover for LG Optimus G E970 - Search amazon $6

It fits nice, not clear but pretty close.

So I also wanted the LGOG to go in Car Dock mode (Launch Car Home Ultra) when put in the dock, so the wife had the small magnets that you can cut and stick on things (Craft magnets I think). And I am still working on the best location but put it in the lower left so now the magnet activates the Car Dock mode automatically. Also the magnet I am using is not powerful enough to activate the car dock with the case on, I am looking for a stronger flat magnet and will install it soon. (See pictures) This dock also has an arm that comes out to hold the phone when in Portrait mode, I use it to perfectly align the phone with the magnet to launch the Car dock. Also without the Car Dock mode the lock screen and phone calls are in portrait mode even if the phone is in landscape. But in Car Dock mode it fixes it.

I could not post pictures but send me message and I will give you Dropbox links.

Sorry for the long post, hope this gets some of you ideas and I wanted to share mine. I know it's not perfect and my setup might cost more than the 5 dollar infuse dock with Dremel, but being on the road I needed something a little more. Thanks for all the ideas, and hopefully my first post here is helpful.

Edit: After typing all this out I just found out I can't post links and no pictures or links to pictures, sorry about that, makes my post pretty useless...
