Hier guys,
What do you use to hold the phone in your car? Magnetic ?

I have this
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073R68TSH?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
Fits the phone well and attaches to the car vent grill
I use magnetic it's the easiest to work with but instead of using the vent grill I bought a suction cup one so that I can place it anywhere I want.
Like this one Amazon doesn't have it in stock right now but I wanted something that doesn't block the vents.

Does that double up as a girlfriend to ??
I use something similar to this (with the gravity lock and without wireless charging function). It's so easy to use. Slide the phone down to the bottom of the holder and the bottom clamp will pull both side clamps to lock the phone. Though it cannot use with case too thick.

I'm sure this has been asked but I couldn't find it by searching.
I need a solid answer from someone who tried using the TF201 dock with the TF300 tablet. This is very important due to a decision we're considering at work.
Thanks guys!
PS I prefer people who actually tried it. My dad is battling lymphoma and i want to make him a gift so we can always skype. Thanks.
no, you will end up cracking the screen or hinge. 300 is a good amount thicker so the fit would be too tight. only use matching docks. why risk it breaking and voiding warranty because you used the wrong dock. each tablet has its own particular dock, therefore, they have to match up. if Asus wanted people using different docks on different tabs, they would've just made a universal dock instead.
im sure you could shove or force the 300 in there but no guarantee everything would work and you will serious stress the glass of tablet and the hinge of dock. it wasn't made to accommodate a thicker tab.
more should chime in on it soon.
best wishes to your dad winning the battle.
p.s. now if it were vice versa, the prime would fit in 300 dock BUT it would very loose fit n be wobbly. possibly stressing the dock connector & more.
Yes, it works. The tablet gets in the dock a bit tight, but you can do it without too much force. But it's better to use proper dock, as demandarin said.
Here's a reputable source (Dutch tech website Tweakers.net): http://tweakers.net/reviews/2549/2/...fde-uiterlijk-en-indruk-een-broertje-van.html (includes pictures of the mixed/matched docks)
Volgens Asus is het niet mogelijk om de docks van de verschillende Transformers uit te wisselen, maar in de praktijk is dit wel degelijk mogelijk. Omdat de tablets niet dezelfde dikte hebben is het echter niet aan te raden. De Prime-tablet zit veel te los in het 300T-dock en de 300T moet echt in het dock van de Prime gepropt worden. We raden dit dus ook niet aan.

And let me translate that for you because most of you can't read Dutch:
According to ASUS, it's not possible to swap out the docks of the different transformers, but in practice it appears to be possible. However, we don't recommend it because the tablets have a different thickness. The Prime tablet has too much slack space in the 300T dock, and the 300T really has to be forced into the prime dock. Henceforth, we don't recommend doing this.

So a while back I ordered two moto stands because they were on sale. I hardly use one of them so I decided to modify one.
This is what I came up with because I had been wanting a qi wireless stand. It was a lot easier than I thought.
Took apart one of the stands. Under the pad are just four lil screws, then just clipped off a couple of tabs so that it can lay flat on the back of the qi charger.
I didnt want to use super glue to stick them together, then I remembered I had some adhesive for cell phone screens and that stuff is strong, for being super thin (i think 1/16)
Here are some pics. Works awesome and looks good.
Looks nice. I like it. Props on the creativity.
oh btw i took the pics with my N6 lol
I might try this with mine, I mainly use it for holding my phone when I do work but this is a good idea.
This inspired me. I just bought all of the stuff to do this.

With this setup, it only charges while it's standing up. I wanted it to charge both ways standing and laying on the side. But now I like that I can lay it on its side after its done charging, without it continuing to charge.

Yeah I might see if I can't change the position of the charging pad a bit so I can charge it on its side. I'd like to use it as an alarm clock type dock.

It's possible, the charger would just need to be lower. Or if you had one of those rectangular ones that have like 3 coils. I think theres one on amazon that I saw thats the same thickness as this round one.

I dont think it would make a difference with that charger, I tried it that way and it wouldn't charge the phone sideways.
Just got a nexus 6 and i see that this stand is on sale.
Does the charging pad work with the N6 in that position?
I like the subtle plug for FKupdater.
How well does it work with a case? My nexus 4 qi charger works while the other I got for my Sammie doesn't. The nexus charger is just very difficult to find the sweet spot and get it to stay there. I'm currently is using the supcase unicorn beetle heavy duty case, awesome case by the way. Thanks

Yes, this wireless charger is large, and may take difficult, maybe a wireless powerbank would be better.
I can confirm that any qi wireless charging pad works fine! I had some cheap eBay ones laying around, worked fine!
But i have a question concerning the tempered glasses: is there really a difference between P9000 and P9000 Lite Variant? What and why? Thank you!

Sound nice, could you share some photos, and let's have a look, thx.
Can anyone confirm if wireless charging works with either the original flip case or a TPU skin on the phone?
I don't want to buy a wireless charger if they won't work with a case on, as it's a faff to take the case on and off to charge the phone - would rather just use the cable.

Mine charges with the original flip case. No reason to think that it won't charge with a TPU skin.

My tempered glass protector arrived just now, I've installed it, but now I can't use the dam case. I've got 2 cases, 1 that came with the phone or another that I bought from Amazon.
It peels the glass off at the edges, no matter how much stretch I put on the case

I bought a second P9000... one for my sister and when I put the glass on this time round it bubbles near front camera and proximity sensor. Annoying as first one adhered much better. Case seems more loose compared to first one too. Edges do peel
Anyone have the leather case? Mine doesn't stay shut, which makes the cutout window on it, completely useless.
I have a tech matte vent mount and I stuck my S8 to it with no steel plate on the back and it held. Does anyone know if this is ok or will it potentially damge the phone?

Won't damage the phone as far as I know but the contact isn't as strong as if you had a plate. Downside of a plate is wireless charging not working. I have to somehow figure out how I'm going to place a plate ok it without killing the wireless charging function

If you put the plate on the lower third of the phone it shouldn't interfere with wireless charging https://youtu.be/GRmY-4HKVIk?t=1m43s

That is correct but my phone seems to get a lot hotter when I do this.
Week before I got the s8 I tried this with my note 5 and it did indeed run hot. I decided to forget about magnetic mounts due to this. Between the nfc chip and wireless charging coils you have to place the plate far down and it makes for an unstable connection due to it being top heavy. So now I rock an iottie quick release mount that sits in my CD player. It's low profile and clicks shut when I put my phone in it. Best mount I've ever had.

How secure is the phone without any plate? I've been looking at mounts and I don't want to stick anything to the back of my phone and I also don't use a case.

Does it hold the phone pretty sturdy without any plate?
Both the internal plate (designed to go between the case and the phone) and the magnetic sticker (to use on the back of the phone or outside back of a case) contains 4 small corner magnets in it. These magnets are used to keep the phone correctly positioned and are quite strong. I have attempted to use this charger with only the phone (both S6 and S8) without the additional magnets and had no success. A good bump in the road will knock it clean off the mount. The plus side is that the phone does not get hot during wireless charging on this mount or the few I have in my house. Also it will stick to any metallic surface, such as my refrigerator (nice for controlling music playback while in the kitchen).
My phony is pretty stable on my mount with no plate. I wouldn't go off road with it or even down a bumpy road but over your normal paved road it's not bad

Think it would be possibly to swap the magnets out for stronger ones? I really don't want to put the extra metal on to the phone but I also don't want the thing dropping off! I was close to ordering this today but now I'm having second thoughts

I am not sure. Seems like this charger relies more on the strong magnets in the sticker / case plate than what is contained in the actual mount itself. I certainly wouldn't recommend anyone using this mount / charger with a bare S6 or S8 from personal experience. There could also be some better alternatives out there at this point as I purchased the charging mount about 1 1/2 years ago.

Hiya folks,
I do a ton of driving and my last phone holder has finally bust.
I've had my XZP for a couple days now and would like to get a holder suited for it, does anyone make an active cradle for it? Or a good holder? Ideally window mount but I'd happily screw one in if it's good enough.
Thanks

I have been using a Spigen with my Z5P very satisfactorily for 18 months and will now simply substitute the XZP in its place. Only change needed is a USB C cable or uUSB to C adapter.

I was using dedicated Brodit holders for Xperia V and Z3c
For XZP curently there's no dedicated holder, so I ordered and mounted generic version yesterday
https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00BTHSOWO
You'll need a car specific adapter in addition. This usually fits in dashboard without the need to fasten it with screws
Really like the Brodit bracket system. Had one for my Z1, since then have had other phones not supported (currently S6 Edge+ but upgrading to the XZ Premium soon) so I got a generic holder (current one has wireless charging) and stripped it down and attached the old Z1 Brodit ball/socket to the new holder and it works great.
