Evo lte car mount? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I'm in the market for a car mount for my evo, just wondering if there's any mounts available that will hold it with a case on?

I have the one from sprint and it works fine with my case. Just leave out the spacer from the dock. I think it was $35 or so in store.

second this, as long as its not a bulky otterbox. TPU silicone and hard cases should work fine. They also supply little pieces of foam so if your phone is at an angle, you can straighten it out. You'll see what i mean if you get one.
cheers

For a cheaper dock the quality is surprisingly good, got mine with the media link back when they had the 2 for 20% off, all in all only paid about a hundred bucks, dock was practically free lol

I need one that will fit an evo with a ballistic case on

Amazon has a good one called iOttie
http://www.amazon.com/iOttie-Windshield-INCREDIBLE-BlackBerry-Revolution/dp/B00687N0GK
holds any phone, so it came in handy for me. also they have excellent customer support. mine broke when my daughter knocked it off the counter with my phone in it and they sent me a replacement for free

I think the one that Sprint sells is the closest you'll get to OEM from HTC. Unfortunately, I've ONLY been able to find it in stores and on Sprint's website. Finding it on any other website or eBay is pretty much impossible to find a better price. I like keeping everything OEM, so I'll probably get it when I'm really going to need it.

the one sold by sprint is made from a company called ibolt. They make a generic car dock for the oneX that fits the LTE and the oneX.
http://www.amazon.com/iBolt-Vehicle...?ie=UTF8&qid=1347487055&sr=8-3&keywords=ibolt
that is the one that i'm using right now. works great and its the same price at sprint. i just bought it off of amazon because i had a $50 Amazon gift card so i basically got it for free.

This ARkon mount its the note, it'll fit the Evo with a Ballistic case:
http://www.arkon.com/slimgrip/slimgrip-dashboard-mount-sm578.html
They have window suction and other ones of you don't want the dash version. Best of all, they're mostly under $20.

I ordered an iBolt from Amazon and you can (optional) use it with or without case. All you have to do is remove a piece of plastic from the mount and it fits with case. Its a very sturdy and flexible mount and I recommended it. I think I paid around $25-30. There are cheaper ones out there but you get what you paid for...

I took a trip to the local Sprint store this morning and picked up their car dock and I must say, Im damn impressed at the quality! kind of whack that it doesnt include a charge cable but it is a nice piece for sure. I hightly recommend it :good:

I just got the iBolt version from thecellguru.com & love it so far. $27 after shipping (no tax for those in states that care). Cheapest I was able to find anywhere online (even eBay). They only have it under the OneX compatibility section (probably because that's what it says on the box), but I can attest that it works fine with the EvoLTE. Oh, and no I do not work for them...just dropping a tip to save everyone some $ on a decent accessory.

I'm going to look into the ibolt, I like the design. Does anyone have pictures of their evo in it that they could share?

I have a universal mount from wally world, it works perfectly it doesn't have a charger but I use my rocketfish charger that was for my idiot phone 4 I can even use the mount with my defender so its a good buy in.my eyes
Sent from my LTEVO

I've been looking at the ibolt. Has anyone used it with an otterbox commuter case? The reviews and description say it can be used with a case, but otterbox has a flap covering the usb port so I don't know how it would work.

I wish they would make one like I had for the og evo. With the cone shaped base and the thin chrome post with ball on each end, and thin minimal plastic clip holding the phone. All so neat and trim. I hate the big boat shape tray on the sprint/ibolt one, especially since my phone has no case, that boat shape is way bigger than the phone and looks ugly. Also the big fat hold-down clip on the top. Ugh.. it all blocks so much more window view than necessary. And of course the blue charging light, yet another unnecessary light on my dash at night.
But it holds the phone securely, charges, and provides a good landscape gps and media player.
I'll have to dig up a pic of my old og evo setup to show what I mean. I think the dock was actually for the hero but it worked on the og evo with a tiny hack just trimming away a small bit of plastic. Looked a hundred times better than the sprint/ibolt. This was definitely one downgrade from upgrading from og evo to evo lte.

Oh yeah plus you could turn it portrait or landscape any time and it looked good both ways.
I wish they would make THIS for the evo lte.

They do. It's from iBolt. It's available on Sprints site. Its 35 bucks, even on eBay ... But sure is nice

Case with kickstand

Please tell me I'm not the only one who remembers HTC/Sprint mentioning that case with kickstand for the EVO 3D. I just put the phone on order and been looking for that one case all over online. Is it supposed to be an OEM case sold by Sprint only or something? Anyone has any clue?
Case should be available same day you go pick up the phone... Sprint and radio shack will have the case probably best buy as well

Thanks, though I ordered the phone from Amazon Wireless. I'm not getting it on contract, so I'm paying full price for it, which Sprint is having for $549, while Amazon for $469. Kind of a no brainer.
I tried eBay and the likes, no luck. Then I go for google, and it seems HTCPedia has them listed but out of stick or backordered. So basically no luck so far. Hopefully you're right and they have it at the Sprint retailer when I go there as soon as I get the phone.
When i ordered my E3D through sprint this morning one of the accessories available was something called an 'easel case' or something along those lines. It looked like the official ones shown before but the picture was only from the front so I couldn't tell for sure. It also said it had 3 levels of tilt or something like that which I was unfamiliar with from the one we're looking for. It was listed as $45 so I decided against it in case it's not the right one. I'll probably check the store on Friday.
edit:
went back into the premier store and found evo3D accessories. good thing I didn't order it!
http://i.imgur.com/HvtFp.png
it looked very similar from the front in the very small picture they have at the end of checkout, but i though easel case sounded wrong. Guess we're back to square one.
It says it has a stylus holder lol

cool, but i think that every evo case should cover the camera opening and just have cutouts for that lenses and flash/speaker.
Ill hold out for someone to make a hybrid poly/tpu case that covers the camera and has the kickstand. till then ill just use my otterbox defender for day to day and my tpu case from tpucases.com for light duty when I cant have it on my belt (formal dinners and such)
i dont see what the big deal is with the camera. i have had my evo from launch day and it has been naked about 95% of the time (had a seidio case for a bit) and my camera lens is perfectly fine and i am far from careful. dropped may times, always in my pocket, fell down the stairs etc etc.
I was just at my local best buy and they said they do not carry any accessories with htc branding.

I had already seen the HTCPedia one. Too bad just about every case I find is "out of stock". Hopefully we get a lot more to choose from by week's end...

It appears to me, comparing this picture to the Evo 3D in my hands, that the kickstand is on the wrong side for me....would not allow charging? HTC one appears to allow charging by reversing the phone. BTW, I confirm...3D works either way in landscape mode (with micro usb up or down).
Edit: I am assuming that the rounded end is the side that extracts and rests on the table/desk

Car dock now available on Sprint.com!

check it out here!
Thanks.
sent from my 3D
Ordered... thanks!!! It says it has its own charging port, too. By the looks of it it should be pretty nice.
Just picked mine up from the Sprint store. It's fantastic. It feels durable, has a removable slot sizing piece so it can accommodate phones with cases, and it comes with a disc for dash mounting if you don't want to window mount it. I love it!
Is this the official one made by HTC? Like the official one for the EVO 4G?
Yeah it is. I saw it today when I picked my phone.
It's really nice. I held off for now though. I've already bought like three cases and want to get a nice sd card...it adds up

Yes I will fit and charge the phone too
no Otter box will fit in this car dock, the body glove case is too big it barely goes in at all and it's thinner than the Otterbox defender and commuter by a long shot.
The ones sprint are selling doesn't have the adjustment knob to adjust the mount up and down, it only has the tilt ball adjustment. On Igrips web site theirs shows an adjustment knob at the top of the arm to tilt it up and down and sprints have identical clips on both sides with no knob, making it a bit difficult to get it exactly where you want it

No it's made by iGrip, not HTC. Just picked it up in the store. I'ts not like the HTC Evo 4G dock at all. This still seems nice though and about $20 cheaper if I remember correctly.
From the bottom of the box
Sunction mount and vehicle disc made in Germany
Vehicle Dock made in china.
Customer Support: iGRIP Global LLC [email protected]
http://www.igrip.us/ Here it is on their page. The mount itself is seperate from the part that holds the phone so in theory for your next phone you could just buy the phone holder and pay less.
Edit: it does put it into car mode though.
The Commuter kinda fits.. if you press down it will charge, but it won't stay that way, you also need to remove the soft USB cover (fine by me)..
It's so close to fitting perfectly I think I'm just gonna dremel it a bit at work on Monday..

I went to BestBuy yesterday looking for a case and I saw that one. In my opinion, it has two problems.
1.- The kickstand is made of thin plastic, it might be functional, but it doesnt look very sturdy.
2.- (The biggest one) Once the phone is on the stand, the USB port ends up facing the table so you cant charge your phone and use the kickstand at the same time.
On the other hand, its the only option for now if you have to have one.
I rather wait until the official comes out or the dock.
The official HTC case for the 3VO will be just like the Thunderbolts, nice and slim with a meaty metal kickstand.
i bought the body glove vibe cover from the sprint store and love it. it only comes in purple that i know of. it is 24.99 and i received 25% off for buying two accessories.
edit it fits perfectly in the car dock from sprint.
I shelled out the 35 for the kickstand case (pt) from BB. More than I would usually spend on a case but it doesn't add much bulk at all and the kickstand is nice to have. It does seem on the fragile side but it locks in pretty good so I don't think it will pop out when it's not supposed to. There are 2 settings - out and out a little further. The 2nd enables you to stand it in portrait and thus charge the phone. Not a perfect case, but pretty nice.
The body glove kickstand idea looks cool but it looks bulky and well ... it's purple.

I got this yesterday also...I really like it, and I'm not a case-kind-of-guy! My OG EVO, no case, perfect condition not a single mark on it. I feel this phone has to have it just to be able to set it down safely without scratching the camera lenses which I did on my first E3D within 4 days, not good! I feel a lot more safe with this case and the cheesy little kickstand works fine. Was hoping it would still fit into that HTC car mount but no go. Picked up the universal car mount at Sprint and I am a happy E3D owner!

Verizonwireless.com High Gloss Silicon Case. What do you guys think?

Trying to get a head start on accessories before I get the phone, lol.
Does anyone own the High Gloss Silicon Case available direct from Verizon. It comes in 3 colors. $19.99 each.
They have a sale this weekend, buy 3 items get 20 percent off, buy 5 items get 30 percent off.
I was planning on getting the screen protectors directly from them also, and maybe an extra STANDARD size battery.
What do you guys think?
Here is the Verizon link:

honestly, i'd just reccommend checking out cruzerlite tpu cases...go checkout my thread for pics, reviews and links to their stuff..they're much cheaper than 20 bucks..that's really expensive

I coughed up the $20 for this case in black. I bought the phone just before traveling on business and did not want it naked. (I actually had just decided not to purchase another phone for a while as I had my Incredible rooted and on a stable ROM with a great kernel, etc. etc., but the LCD cracked. I suspect it was a Verizon OTA screen cracking exploit nobody knows about....)
I like how the case wraps around the Rezound. I also suprisingly like the gloss. We'll see how it holds up. I typically keep a case for a few months then decide I want something "else." Once a phone is rooted, I need to be able to pull the battery frequently while tinkering around with it, so a silicon case is a nice option, as opposed to a hard two-piece case that I'm constantly pulling apart. It feels like a "better" case than the cheaper silicon ones I can get at the stand at the mall right outside the Verizon store.
Picked up the red gloss case and so far so good I like that it doesn't add any bulk.

the standard clamshell holster that verizon sells has always worked on the silicone cases on all the phones I have had.. bionic, charge, tbolt and razr; yes i may have a problem

Grabbed the black one when I picked up the phone. Fairly nice but not worth 20 bucks imo. Once my Otterbox commuter comes in, it's going back and I'll pick up a car charger.

Here are the accessories I bought for my 3VO. (coming from OG EVO)
Anti-Glare Screen Protector
Trident Aegis Case

Personally have not had a matte screen protector. But I have seen others saying it disrupts the way the 3d works, as in the 3d doesnt look or work as good with that type of screen protector.
I would love to hear your experience with it however.

dont waste your money on an otterbox, invest in a ballistic case and youll be glad you did!
Also the official htc dock is really nice. Fits perfectly (not a mm too small/big), looks neat and even supports MHL (which is also a great thing to have). I don't like cases personally, the back cover is too nice to put something over it. I also don't have a screen protector cuz I always screw up putting it on (yes I tried) . I do have a nice official htc leather pouch (really cheap from eBay.

I like the iGrip since it holds the car charger wire firm as not to strain the port in the phone from where I like the suction cup to go and the phone is very easy to put in and take out. The Exomount is nice since the suction cup is one of those sticky kind that will go anywhere, I used to to watch movies in the back seat, stuck to the rear seat which the iGrip might not of stuck to.
Regarding my wifes phone we stayed with the White Platinum case (from bestbuy) with the holster from my black case Platinum combo and she uses it on her purse. I do like the Platinum case but the white one seems to discolor from the sun it looks like
Yeah have the otterbox defender, have no complaints except for the holster. Smart to buy a case for it either way. One scratch is too many!
I agree. I hate scratching my phone. I like the otter but its just to big and thick for me to being carrying around in my pocket especially at work. And I'm not a fan of holsters hahA.

When you have your phone in the Exomount, does it bounce around? I want to get a mount that I can use with my 3vo, or Epic Touch, or any other device that I have.

dont waste your money on an otterbox, invest in a ballistic case and youll be glad you did!

Couldn't disagree more. Otterbox is hands down the best case. Spend the $50, buy a defender. Protects way better than the Ballistic case, backed by the company and smaller than a ballistic.

Okay, Yes the exomount does have a small ball and its not very stiff. (sounds like a horror movie ha!) If your bouncing around alot the phone does lose it's position and you have to realign it to face you. But that said its very universal and light and easy to just grab when you know you might need it. also its good for anyother device like other ipod touches & smartphones in the family.

Oh don't you worry about me, I got mine for $35 shipped.
However, $50 for a case that will keep your $600 phone safe isn't really an awful investment.

LOL...alright well most of the roads here in NY/NJ are decent, but I'm just curious before taking the leap.
Amazon has it for $20 so that's not bad at all.
