Tom Tom with a subscription to their Plus Traffic info.

I also download current speed check locations (police ambushes)

Yeah, but with my Universal, when I switched the machine off it was really off and it stopped navigating. When I switch the Athena off, it apparently keeps running only with the screen switched to black.

Could be that my car charger doesn't have the data lines grounded. Not sure. The Universal had the same problem with some chargers (ie I needed to switch it off to get the LED to go orange and start charging and then I could switch it back on and it would keep on charging. If left on it would never charge.) I bought a powered holder for the Uni though and that charger did work. I use a standard 5V @ 1A usb car charger for the Athena now.

Brodit holder combined with HR Suction cup

Here are some pictures of my setup. I got the Brodit holder and coupled that to my HR Richter suction cup with a piece a constructed from a HR Richter double holder

I simply cut off the two sides and screwed the Brodit to the middle part that remained. I had this laying around, otherwise I probably would just have purchased the HR adapter plate.

You can see the extra block sittingbetween the brodit and the arm in the next picture.

Here it is in a Honda Civic:

I'm still looking for a better charger and I didn't feel like paying 30 euro for the Brodit active cable. Besides, I want to make the cable more hidden too (put it around the edge of the dash)

This mean that Athena is working as it should and Universal is not. It makes more sense to work the Athena way,and I personally use that feature. When I use my golf navigation software, I switch off my PDA toconserve power, but leaving the GPS workingso that at any moment I can switch it back on to tell me my distanc to the green, to water hazards, etc. It wouldbe useless if GPS does not stay alive, because that would mean I have to wait for the position update which takes time.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] sumtingwong:
Um... won't the screw heads showing up here scratch your Athena when you put it in?

I found the brodit holders are too clumsy. As if they put no thoughts into the designing process at all What's up with the screwing and the snaping... Haven't they heard of the standard suction cups, the standard T slot, the standard 4-prong ratcheting system?

If you love saving money by reusing old parts or if you love being able to mix and match parts from other makers like Arkon, etc... or if you love to be able to take your mounting system to your rental car when you travel, go for the Herbert Richter holder that comes with the standard 4-prong ratchetin system. I was able to use it with the 14-inch gooseneck system I bought from Arkon 7 years ago.

For US users buying from Mobile Planet, the Herbert Richter holder is sold together with a gooseneck for $50+. However, you can tell them you only want the holder and they will sell it to you for $40.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] patrickl:
I had several reasons to go for the Brodit holder:

- That HR Richter holder cost almost twice as much as the Brodit holder (at least in the shop where I bought it)

- The Brodit holder allows for the keyboard to be attached while the Athena is in the holder.

- The Brodit holder comes with a swivel head built in

The keyboard thing didn't work as well as I hoped (probably won't ever use it), but the swivel head is great.

BTW the Brodit holder keeps some free space at the back of the Athena (which is why the screw heads don't scratch). You can see this in my picture of the side. This in fact does also help cooling the Athena when in the holder. My last car holder had a closed back and it would practically cook my Universal.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] Rambler358:
Nope - there's about a 1/2" clearance from the back of the Advantage to the mount, so no problems. It's very sturdy and even does quite well on bumpy roads on my bike. :)

The only thing I need to do is Dremmel a little away from the mount area which covers the camera. This way I can take some videos while riding.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] mahjong:
I'm sorry but I consider the way I plug the X7500 in my car at least much elegant that with a suction cup. First off all there is nothing on the windshield so the view is perfect. And in my country when you left the car in the screen thiefs pay attention to the windshields in order to find marks left by the suction cups on it. So they open the cars where those marks are found since many people left the GPS inside de car. Even if you don't left the GPS inside you will get a window broken.

Another point for the air vent instalation is the the GPS is usualy closer to your hand so you can click on it.

And a final word on suction cups... they enventually drops due to temperature changes and moisture.

It's just my opinion but I'm very happy with the air vent mounting I got.

Best regards,

mahjong
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] patrickl:
Suction cup, air vent mount or Brodit Pro clip is indeed another choice. I guess to each their own.

I had an air vent mount before and I didn't like it. When I had it I couldn't comfortably see the screen (too far forward and to much to the right made for an awkward angle) Basically it looked like in the Jeep picture. I cannot really read the map from that angle. I noticed that while navigating I had to actually move my head in front of the PDA to be able see what I had to do. Very dangerous since this especially happens in situations where the traffic is not clear already and you really need the navigating not to take up too much attention.

I had a similar mount and it actually broke my air vent. I didn't like it blocking the vent either. I need the vent to cool/heat my car and when it blows on the PDA it's annoying so I had to switch it off.

I wanted to get a Brodit pro-clip, but they usually go on spots where I don't like it either. Some you even need to put under the dash.

I have only had a suction cup come off in the early days (which is why I tried the air vent). The new suctions cups (with the lever) don't come off really. I never had my car broken in either (the mount sitting on the air vent would call for a break-in just as much so I don't see that point anyway).

I have been using suction cup mounting since the Palm Vx days. Back then mounts were pretty basic. I only used vent mounting for a few months before I replaced that mount with the strong suction cup I still use today. I do clean my window now and then and thus remount the suction cup a few times a year. It's actually quite a struggle to get it off.

My PDA rests on the dash, so it's not hanging in the air. I'd like it a bit lower, but as it is now it's not in the line of sight while I'm driving. I'd like it a bit more to the left too, but it would cover the AC/Radio/Clock display.

BTW The new Honda Civic is actually not an easy car to place a PDA. I'd say probably any new car with a modern dash and windshield seems to make this difficult. The dashboards are so deep and curved these days. They are covered with displays and the windshields (and air vents) are at such an angle that it's hard to attach things. The suction cup is hard to place already, but I couldn't really use an air vent mount even if I wanted too.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] toyfreak:
Here is a follow-on to post #50:

The combination of RAM suction cup and arm with the Brodit passive holder has been 100% perfect for me. It also works great in the back seat (attached to a side window) when I am a passenger. I have never had any problems with the security of the suction cup. The whole setup is sturdy enough to type on with the hardware keyboard attached.

I also have a RAM yoke mount for aircraft use and weather permitting, I will be using it Wednesday 24 October in a Cessna 172. I will post pics of this setup then.

It's the largest instrument display in the aircraft (including the Bendix/King GPS in the radio stack). I can also display a full complement of aviation weather data right on the moving map like NEXRAD, lightning, METARS, TAFs, etc. using the AT&T data connection to download (usually before departure but in-air if necessary and available).

There is no stock 5.0 for the s3 at the moment.

Since you are still on 4.1.2, your phone probably won't work with any 5.0 ROMs as your modem and bootloader are not up-to-date.

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] ron12:
I'm curious if anyone has been using Qi charging with their TabPro? Anyone's comments would be appreciated.

I used a micro-usb Qi coil receiver between my TabPro 8.4 and the Poetic case for a few weeks without issues.

But then something happened to cause the Qi charging pad to overheat. I ended up having to have the TabPro 8.4 replaced by BestBuy as the TabPro would no longer charge at all, even trying different micro-usb cables and 2.1 amp power adaptors. What was even stranger, was the battery continued to drain even after powering the TabPro off! I'm puzzled as to what was damaged, but the end result was the battery went from 41% charge to 7% charge overnight even though it was powered off (not sleeping, but powered off) and not connected to a charger. When I discovered it was at 7% I removed my account info, but even with the charger plugged in, the battery went down to 3% while working on the TabPro. When I checked on it an hour latter it was dead. If I plugged in the charger, after about 20 seconds it would flash the green battery for about a second, then it would go out. No boot, no charging, even after leaving it charging for 24 hours.

So I'm very reluctant to try to use Qi wireless charging on my replacement tab. I suspect the Qi charging pad failed and overheated. There is a spot about the size of a dime where the plastic partially melted on the charging pad. The Poetic case and the TabPro look fine, and the charging pad still acts like it is working. Very puzzling. Any ideas or cautions? :confused:
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] otyg:
The only thing I can think of is maybe the Qi charging pad failed to deliver 2.1 Amps to correctly charge it (I don't think they even make 1 Amp coils yet? - though I could be wrong.) , maybe the tab went into charging mode but it was really discharging since not enough current was going in that it needed to charge + keep the tablet running so in the end maybe it destroyed the battery since it went completely flat which is usually a bad thing for l-ion battery's

Usually when android says the battery is at 0% the battery really has about 20% remaining for protection of the battery and preventing it from going completely empty (l-ion can really be drained to 2.5v but android reads 0% around 3.4v or 3.2v if i remember correctly as protection from flat-lining the batt), however if it was under charging mode I'm sure it would override this as it thinks it's plugged in so it's not paying attention to the battery, but really the batt is draining to compensate for the underpowered charger, that would be my guess maybe constantly using the Qi charger the battery circuitry changed the battery status from lv 2 (good) to ~ lv 4 (bad) since it wasn't receiving the current it was supposed to and the circuitry thought something was wrong with the battery cells or the battery just went bad since it was always under a charging / discharging state never reaching 100%.

on a side note

I found this tablet to be very fussy when using other chargers then its official one, I have tried several chargers and they just dont function like the stock one for example

HP Touchpad charger 5.3v - 2.0A - Very high quality charger and even won some awards for beating out other chargers - I found this would sometimes not fully charge the tablet to 100% it would idle around 98% (I have two of these chargers) - Charge current starts around 1800 mAh drops to 200 mAh when battery gets full don't think its enough to top it off. (charges at 5v)

10,000 mAh Power-bank (5v , 2.0A), found out this would not fully charge the tablet either it would get to 80%, upon further inspection the 2A port was only delivering about 1 Amp of current according to my amp reader (voltage drop to 4.98)

Samsung official charger (5.3v 2.0A)- though seems to start at a pretty high 5.60 volts (higher then other chargers) , and charges at about 1870 mAh , always reaches 100% with this charger. (I have two of these chargers since I bought another one as backup - both do the same thing)
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] ron12:
That could be the case. Yet, for two weeks, the Qi charging had no problems taking the charge to 100%. It would charge a bit over 15% an hour. The Galaxy Charging Current app reported between 670 and 750ma charging current using Qi charging.

At this point I'll likely never know, but it could be the battery itself simply failed on the tablet. My question is mainly to see if anyone else has used Qi charging, and what their experience is. How can I display the battery status (you referenced lv 2 (good) to ~ lv 4 (bad))? The battery app from the Play Store does display "battery health" but I've only seen it say "Good".

On your side note, I occasionally plug the tablet into the USB port on my computer (measures 5.10V), and it charges at about 10% an hour while sleeping, and has repeatedly charged the battery to 100% when I leave it connected. I have an EnrePlex Jumper Prime 4400mAh that measures 5.18V, and charges at 1.5A. It has charged the battery to 100%, though will run out of juice if the battery is lower than 40% before I use it, it measures 5.18V.

I have an old Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 that I often charge via the computer's USB port, although it takes a long time, and it's battery is still fine after almost 3 years.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] otyg:
The battery app from the play store probably does the same thing just shows a status as a replacement of the health, you can see the status with logcat occasionally you will see something like this ---

you might need root for some of these commands., you can use Terminal Emulator , adb shell, or sshd to access these commands.

Logcat::

1.

2. (shell)

dumpsys battery

will output something like this

Current Battery Service state:
