Doesn't it interfere with radio?

Flubster (or anybody else with this kind of mount) doesn't having it so very close to the car's audio headunit make it impossible to listen to the radio?

Granted, I'm using a factory headunit in my Jeep, but it's the premium one and sounds pretty good... unless my cellphone is activly communicating! Especially data. CDs are fine, so it's the tuner, not the amplifier...

Do aftermarket radios do a much better job of not picking up the signals? Because I can't imagine using either of the mounts offered for my vehicle and being able to listen to the radio.

Or is the 8925 somehow better at not interfering with radios than my 8525 was?

So the G4700X used to say it works with the kaiser but now it says PPC 6800 only. That post that Park City referenced was about the case, not the car cradle. Does anyone have a G4700X and can confirm that it works with the Kaiser?

Thanks!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Park City:
Seidio claimed that they would be releasing the G4700x and the rubberized case (currenly only avail. for the 6800) for the Kaiser soon.

I emailed them last night again and will post where when they reply.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] osunick:
Heard back from Kelvin at Seidio and he says that the current G4700X is 6800 only, but they are planning on releasing a model for both the Hermes and Kaiser. So that's good news, I only wish they would release a date.

-n.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] tak.japan:
so, they wont tell you the date huh... did they at least tell you if it's coming next year or next quarter?

Is there similar car kits? I'm looking for one that I have audio out, and charger capability... can't care less about microphone and stuff...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] osunick:
If you don't care about the mic, just get the audio adapter from pocketpctechs. It includes a standard 1/8" jack and a mini usb port for your car charger. To mount in your car, go to proclipusa and get the mount for your car and the holder for your tilt.

Otherwise, there really isn't anything as good as the Seidio. I have the 8125 cradle installed in my car and it works great, gives me factory-like integration with my car audio and power.

Here's how it looks:

The 4700X should be even better since it's black.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] cayotte:
Is that means it's not compatible with my HTC Tytn II (Kaiser)? Damn, I just placed my order this morning. Can someone confirm this?

Judging from their sizes, Kaiser and 6800 are just about the same.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] osunick:
Here's what they emailed me:

Hi Nick,

We’re sorry for the confusion. The G4700x car kit for PPC6800 is only compatible to use with the HTC mogul with Sprint and will not compatible to use with Tytn II, Kaiser or Tilt. We’re still working on the Kaiser car kit, but at this we do not have an ETA.

Thank You for contacting Seidio

Seidio G4700X CHARGING CAR KIT

I just sent them an email asking when they would have this available for the tilt... Let you know whan I get an answer -
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] MPIIIMan:
Just bought this one.

Works nice.

The grips on the sides expand / contract to fit pretty much any device.

http://microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0261982
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] jgermuga:
I used the Seidio for my 8125 as well but it is a bit bulky and I wound up splitting in half and running the wires through a mount from another company. Don't recall where I got it, but it is specific to my car model, so it probably won't help others too much. I extended the wires into the the golve box, where I attached a cord to run into my AUX input, and another to run a mic cord around the windshield and tucked the mic up above the rear view mirror. I also put a spare power jack from radio shack to power both the mount and a BT gps receiver. Works pretty nicely.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Faxman:
Has anybody conclusively determined if the ProClip mount or any of the others works with the extended batteries that use either the 'bump' out back cover or the larger full length back cover?

It appears in the photos that the ProClip does, but I'm not sure.

did the Kaisers released outside of AU come prepacked with a car kit?

as the ones here came with a very good car kit, post if u want some pics.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] CrozB:
What i would like is a quick dock like on a desktop craddle. Something you can drop in and pull out 1 handed very easily. The opion to landscape would be nice, but not as convinent as an easy drop in craddle!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] CrozB:
Make that an easy drop in that has both Power AND Audio out.

I use my phone everyday for GPS and MP3s. I hardly ever use the FM radio and I don't even have a single CD in my car. Everyting we need is right in our little 8 GB Tilts, we are just lacking a quick way to dock them to our AUX in car stereos!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] TdiDave:
If you find something like this please let me know. I am in my car at least 8 hours a day, and the hands free kit with mic in, speaker out and power is what i have been looking for. I still have a mic and speaker in my car from my old Motoraloa 815 car kit that i could patch into.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] osunick:
I gave up on waiting for Seidio. Instead I went with a powered mount and a Pioneer DEH-P7900BT bluetooth CD receiver. It supports A2DP, AVCRP, and the Hands Free profile. It also does echo cancellation for voice calls and includes an external mic. So now it does everything I want it to and when I upgrade I will only have to get a basic powered mount to integrate with my car.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] rcktfn:
I was just looking for a car receiver for the same reason and came across the exact same radio. How do you like it so far?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] osunick:
I love it. The install was dirt simple and I ran the mic up the A-pillar so it's near my head. Even in BT music mode it still uses the mic so you can still use Voice Command. When you receive a call, it flips to phone mode and then returns to your last source when you finish talking. You can even have control of play/pause/next/previous in media player from the head unit itself.

Only a couple caveats- you have to beam contacts over bluetooth to the stereo's phonebook, and pocket outlook only lets you beam one at a time (you can use pocket informant to send them all), and the media player track info is not displayed in the radio.

Sound quality is great and I don't see a perceivable difference in performance.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&Item=190202992571&Category=35193&_trksid=p3907.m29

AL
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] drokkon:
Can someone point me in the right direction?

I'm in a low hatchback (Mazda3) and I'm fairly tall, so I'd like either a mount that attaches to the front of my dash (near the stereo) or to the upper dash or windshield as long as it has a long gooseneck.

Secondly, I'd like for it to power the device, or have a gap in the bottom so I could manually plug in a car charger.

Third, it would be nice if the thing rotated to accomodate portrait and landscape modes.

Finally, I wouldn't mind a hands-free feature, as long as it didn't interfere with my BT audio (which I already have a solution for). I figure most hands-free mounts go through the mini-USB along with the power, so I'm not sure if I can use my BT audio and then use the hands-free part when I receive a call.

Here are the only other things to keep in mind:

I currently have my Tilt in a case very similar to the Seido case. Actually, it's this one. So whatever mount I choose will have to accomodate the extra dimensions.

This case also has a very standard clip doohicky on the back, so I can use a mount that takes advantage of this, possibly.

Hopefully this isn't too broad. Any suggestions?

Checkout the Proclip/Brodit Car Mount plate for your vehicle.

The Seidio Belt clip rotates right? That covers the Hor/Vert mounting.

The belt clip may be able to clip directly to the mounting plate. If not then add a Krusell Car Mount, the belt clip will slide into this.

Here is what I've done with the Noreve Case, Brodit/Proclipsusa Car Mount, Krusell Car mount and Krussel Swivel Belt Clip.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] drokkon:
Thanks for the feedback (and you too, adidas). My first thought is that clipping the belt clip directly onto the plate would be clumsy, but I have no idea until I try, I guess.

The Krusell site was beyond confusing, but I stumbled my way to the Tilt car mounts. The one you mention (58127) says nothing about being able to lock at different degrees, and I wonder if my cheap phone-side part of the belt clip would fit into it.

Hm. Probably my best bet so far. Anyone have any opinions on dash- or windshield-mounted gooseneck solutions?

Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] osunick:
The good thing about going A2DP is that you don't have to pay for full featured mounts (and wait for one to be made) every time you switch phones.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] osunick:
The goosenecks work fine but the windshield mount ones are illegal in California if you ever go there. Dash mount requires that you stick a special smooth plate for the suction cup. I had one for a while and got annoyed because they never really held the phone very steady, so mine swayed quite a bit. ProClip is totally the way to go.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] kyphur:
With the Krusell Car Mounts you simply get a place to hang the case. If the Seidio belt clip retchets then you have that ability by clipping it to the Mount.

If you use something with the mount like I have then all you need to do is add the Krusell Ratcheting belt clip (see note at bottom of my referenced post) to the Car Mount and now you have a Ratcheting Car Mount.

I've come to the conclusion that there is no "perfect solution" so we each must build what we like (as I have done).

If you do want to buy the Krusell Accessories PM me and I'll send you the e-mail addy of the place in NY where I buy mine (they are the cheapest source I've found for Krusell bits in the US and they combine shipping).

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Elwyn M3100:
The clip looks week and unworthy. I have tried a variety over the years of pda/phone ownership and change vehicles daily. So I can't leave the same mount in all the time. The suction cup usually fails after a few months.

I've only found the Brodit anti-vibration mounts worthwhile. However, I thought we were discussing a permanent fixed solution?!

Either way, the bracked at the back of what you've shown does look like a Brodit mounting bracket...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] MannyNoela:
You can check this PDAir gooseneck solution: http://cgi.ebay.com/Car-Mount-for-P...35193QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1713.m153.l1262

It's a windshield mount, and I think it should work with your case.

An ebay seller (nakedcellphone) says he can get me one (he is in California, isntead of waiting for one from the Hong Kong.)

Passive car holder for extended battery

I'm sorry if I missed this, but I am looking for the following:

I Passive car holder/mount for the Tilt when the Mugen 3000mah extended battery is in (hopefully it would be adjustable so I can use it with the oem battery as well).

I would also like it to accommodate both landscape and portrait.

Lastly, I would like to attach it to my vent or mount it on the dashboard (2005 Impala).

Thanks for your help!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Elwyn M3100:
Hiya Kcrumbley ;)

I've got the mounts from GpsForLess:

http://www.gpsforless.co.uk/product_details.php?id=11546

You can use it either way, landscape or portrait. You've got lots of different ways of mounting them to your vehicle plus they're interchangable.

As for longevity, I've got the "vibration free" mount on suction which has lasted over 18 months, and being a professional driver I change trucks more times that you would think possible :( It's survived me and my work and is still going :)

You can get your own version of this in your country no doubt as it's an international thing. Even if you email GPSForless they could either sell it to you or suggest your local retailer.

Good Luck :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] jglev:
It looks like Gomadic makes something very similar. You can get it without a auto charger (http://www.gomadic.com/htc-8925-car-bean-bag-holder.html ) or with a charger (http://www.gomadic.com/htc-8925-car-bean-bag-holder-charger.html ). Both also come with a windshield mount as well.

I haven't tried it, but I have had other Gomadic products and the company is very reliable.

Using old RoadAngel mount with new Kaiser Holder ?

HI...

I'm looking for a car holder for my Kaiser which will allow me to connect a 'Y' lead to the handset so I can hook the Kaiser up-to my car Hi-Fi speaker's, and charge the device via the cigarette lighter socket at the same time... AND allow me to display the device in either landscape & portrait view.

I have an old (excellent) suction mount for my Road Angel SatNav - can I buy a new Kaiser specific cradle/holder and clip this onto my existing Road Angel suction mount/arm ?

If so, where can I buy one in the UK/EU ?

If not, which UK/EU supplier & product would other forum member's recommend ?

TIA,

Mark.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] osunick:
I have a Brodit one that meets your requirements, allows both portrait and landscape in both open and closed modes. In the states the official vendor is www.proclipusa.com where you mix and match your device and mounting preferences; not sure where you'd find the same for the UK.

-n.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] loser40:
osunick...

Do you have a part number or product code for the part ?

And, just out of curiosity, how are you sure that the part will connect to my old Road Angel arm of the suction pad ?

M.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] osunick:
Your best bet is to go to www.proclipusa.com and configure the mount as needed- they do sell to the UK. You will almost certainly be able to configure a mount with the functionality you want, including a suction arm.

I don't know if the mount will work with the Road Angel. The cradle attachments are totally standard, so if your arm conforms to the AMPS standard it should work. No guarantees with random advice from forum posters, though.

[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkryder:
yes, i am aware of the screen and the factory reset erase sequence. but the reset sequence occured while full charge and plugged into a pc . if the battery on yours was near discharged during the erase sequence it might have completely discharged before completing the factory reset which usually results in somewhat unknown issue. best to plug it in to charger before erase sequence if this happens again. good to hear that another unit is on its way.

2. It did a random reboot after taking it off the charger.

3. It asked for my password in a "pre-boot" screen

4. The message I get is : "Decryption unsuccessful" "The password you entered is correct but unfortunately your data is corrupt.
