Motorcycle mount for Galaxy Note - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories

I am sure someone out there wants to use a NOTE on motorcycle or bicycle as a GPS or to track their rides.
Got myself this... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bicycle-Mot...&otn=5&po=LVI&ps=63&clkid=6534259988712972168
Its well built mounts very nice and is quite stable. I will get pictures of the actual thing on my ZX12R.
Locks the note into place very well, won't work with any cases on the Note and I would suggest using a zip tie to lock it into place, just in case, don't want my $700 phone flying off at 100 mph.
Hope this helps someone.

looks good, but i have a case so no good
have you seen one that will support a case?

extremely awesome bro.. hope its available in my country soon...

looks good, but is it secure?. . i mean if someone drove by could they rip it off . .i live in vietnam and that thing would be swiped in about 30 minutes. .or is it locke don there good ..

yeah buddy.. safety looks like an issue.. can we detach the phone easily when away from the bike?

im not even talkjng about when away from the bike. . when riding these guys will ride up next to you and snatch that. . i wouldnt leave it when i wasnt with my bike. .

Hmmmm....would want some additional latches or something for reassurance it doesn't fly off when I'm on my motorbike. Zip ties are a bit long considering you have to cut them to take them off.

Just be careful. I had one on an iPhone 4 and it lasted a good six months but the bottom leg gave out and splattered my phone on the freeway.

This one doesn't look bad. Thinking about buying one...

I use something like this for some time now. Works fine.

Sorry about the delay in responding, I was away.
Rip off while driving is not gonna happen, it ain't that easy to get it out, you need 2 hands.
I did test it on my 12R and was doing about a 100 mph and it stayed stable, I would not want the fone on my dash for a top speed run.

Looking forward to seeing it on your ZX12R.
I am using a Universal Ram Mount for my note on my DL1000 V-Strom.
Been running with it for several years and several different phones.
Never lost a phone to date and that include some wild off road rides.
Here is a shot of it holding my old Treo Pro after I biffed it good. Windscreen shattered but Phone held tight.
As for using it with a case, to have it fit the Note I have it extended to the max setting so it is not case option solution either.

There is another case version: http://www.bikemate.org/.
They have a "Slim 2 Size L" version on ebay.

Oh man your'e NUTS.... LOL LOL...
you must have really big pockets ;-)
OMG!
10Ah jumbo battery DIY, great work, yeah pockets must be very big to take this with u when moving
wtf? that is ridiculous. i mean, the capacity is impressive but it really looks like a bomb but nice work though, plus it seems to be a good stand too, so you can watch hours and hours of video...
oh my god,
is it bomb? or Blue Angel.
any body here be care full there is bomb BA.
but really nice 10A of battery,it will still for 10 days without charging it.
but how u carry it?in ur pocket?or hold it on ur belt? they will thought u as suicide,
it isnot good idea to carry these tow bombs any where.
Under that same concept, you could wire your BA to your car battery you will have a BA that runs on gasoline. You get more horsepower, but the drawback is that you damage the enviornment
Good God! Some people are either really creative or really need a new hobby (or bigger pockets as noted in a few more comments)
Look like a bomb !!!!!!!!!
Boom!!!!!!!!!!!
Every one are afraid off this one,this bomb when show it on coffe Shop
Oh,Those pictures are made by PDAVIET MEMBER,SO GOOD,!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HAHAHHAHAH!!!!!
COOOOOOL!!! I've been thinking about making something like this, but didn't know how to make a case for the batteries. Now I need I don't need a case!!! This thing looks perfect!!! I'll put only 3 batteries, should be enough

don't think wrong, it isn't
LOL, now i have seen it all. but mind you ingenius to say the least, but a better solution would have been to hook that same battery pack with the power adapter that comes with the Blue Angel, and let it charge the internal battery. they've made similar devices for the ipods and iphones for awhile now letting you talk and use the phoe while charging the internal battery. and not look like your carrying an explosive charge hahaha
But well done on the implementation!

DIY Xperia X10 stand

After looking around for a decent stand for my Xperia X10 for my desk and coming up empty, I decided to make my own.

That's awesome man !!!
I'll never buy stand, now that I know I can make my own
+rep
nice stand but i'm more interested in the clock you have on the screen. is that an app?
I believe he is using Kaloer Clock (Search it in Market). Is that correct?
Yeah, it's kaloer clock....i have it set to turn on automatically whenever i charge the phone. It switches orientation too and allows you to set the brightness level. Makes for a great bedside clock.
Nice stand. Huh, I may follow the directions to construct one.
As for Kaloer clock, I found that it made the SE screen lock disappear, no matter which setting I used with the clock. I can only get the screen lock back only after I go to settings - applications - and force close Kaloer clock.
Did that happen to you and if so, have you found a solution.
I made one from Lego.. even managed to build in a little android!!.

gr00vy0ne, can you tell me where you got the seethrough protection case for your x10? maybe give me a link on ebay? tnx
btw. cool stand, i'll definitely make one
For people curious about the case that I have in the photos it's this one:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Soft-Plastic-Ba...ewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item45f27d59a9
I bought it from this seller as well.
I wonder if anybody here could make a DIY car mount for x10?hehe
men,its cool,i like it
Here's a stand made from only ONE business card:
The best part of this is that you can unfold the business card, put it in your wallet and use it when you need to!
And yes, I do work for Fido (Canada Wireless Company owned by Rogers) but removed my name from the card
Thanks for sharing Tri3Dent! It looked pretty decent!
Even more stable than the stand that came along with my set. Gonna make one!
beautiful stand!
heres my wall mount stand i needed. i use mine as a clock/alarm, so i wanted it someplace where i wouldnt lose it. hope the pics work.
took me about 45mins with my mitre saw and dremel, threw some old left over car paint and clear coat onto it lol.
does the job though super sturdy too.
tell me what you think!
Ptesmoke
EDIT: lol just looked at the last pic (taken by htc diamond) its not off level!! theres some weird shadows cast there somehow, anyways yea its level just like the shelf above it i promise hahaa!! I should maybe grab a side pic of it to show how i have it angled back at about 15 degrees....

Very nice. I would stongly recommend a plastic type of card as paper might not be strong enough (at least mine)
Dunno if this helps anyone but u cud always steal a stand off someone with one of those nokia comes with music phones (5800?). They fold out and fit our x10s perfectly.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CAR-AIR-VENT-...Accessories&hash=item19bc79ed02#ht_2643wt_911
The photo show it as a vent mount but it's actually a windscreen mounted suction cup style one..
It's spot on...

Ghetto Dock 1.0

So i realized i had a problem.. i had no dock. I saw some other self made docks around the forum and realized i didn't have any of the supplies So i made my own.
Required:
1 red cup
2 Screws
1 push pin
2 Screw anchors (thx MV10 for clearing that up )
Basically place the cup upside down, place the two screws equally apart on the bottom, place the two screw holsters on the sides of the push pin (mine fit fairly snug actually) then find the spot you'd like to angel your phone with and place it in, put the phone on and verify you like how it feels (might take a few adjustments here and there). Enjoy
I know it's extremely ghetto but hey it's labor day, and i'm at work (sucks) and there was nothing to do!
Attached is an image of the final product.
Sure it's ghetto, but it works and I'll bet you weren't bored for about half an hour finding the supplies and putting it together. Plus you can feel self satisfied whilst you watch your video

Sooo True! the cool thing about this is, the bezel on the phone actually kinda locks into the screws...the only funny thing is when i get a text the entire cup starts moving rofl.. Watching Kick-Ass on it right now too Working perfectly for what it's worth
The things you're calling "screw holsters" are called anchors.

Awsome ideas on the dock and the kickstand.
Here is a link to do a paper clip stand (it has been discussed before, but for the ones who don't know about it), includes a template.

hahaha he sure put alot more thought into it than i did... lol looks awesome i will soon have 2 docks to choose from
Man that guy put a lot of effort into that paper clip. Maybe to much, but I can really appreciate his efforts and willingness to share.
Sent myself the paper clip one to try at work..... during my break of course

Haha, I was @ work earlier when i made the dock... and the funny thing is i couldn't find a freakin paperclip which led me to using the red cup, the screw anchors and the screws (from a d-link switch box) rofl...

Got my car holder today

Very good service from ultimate-mobiles.co.uk, ordered yesterday and didn't expect it to be here when I got home.
Here's some pics I took. Gonna fit it in the car shortly. I like the way the legs come down and recess again if you don't want them there. And I like the white release button on the back. Also, the side clamps aren't big,ugly and obtrusive like many others. A very cool little black and white vent holder which I trust to hold the phone more than many others I checked out.

Lol aww bless.
Don't go all huffy mate...
Personally I don't like how it looks. But it defiantely looks strong enough to keep the phone safe. Also good to know that company has good service, spotted a few things I fancy.
But I don't like how it looks, I'm sticking with my exogear.
Where did you bought it? It look very nice!
How much it cost?
Tks.
Looks really nice buddy, I'm thinking of ordering the vent mounted one too. At the moment I have a suction cup one that I used to use with my nexus s. The problem is the galaxy s2 is thinner than the nexus so my mount doesn't quite hold it so sturdily. These look ideal, any chance of pics with it installed so I can see what it looks like? Cheers
Sure, here it is, I took these pics today, here's a little gallery.
http://imgur.com/a/Y6H4N
Rodrigo, it's from ultimate-mobiles.co.uk
I forgot to do pics in landscape mode. So yea, there's a knob on the back which loosens off and then tightens so you can rotate to landscape mode.
I've tested with some emergency brake stops, and the phone feels very solid in the holder, not shaking itself out. Also, you can adjust the vertical and horizontal angles so you can get the phone facing exactly where you want to the millimetre.
small world I live in Whetstone, lol
I got the suction cup version of this after I realised the magnet in my magnetic mount was screwing with the compass!
It's been serving me well for six months. I don't use the foldy out feet - it grips well enough without them.

Ive just ordered one, been looking online for a decent one and i think you may have just found it, thanks.
oo..looks pretty sweet. maybe i'll get one, but i need to get a car first

I found a way of installing NATO straps on my 360 without a SteelConnect.

It's hacky, but it works. Let me know if you guys want a write-up.
NOTE: You don't have to break the back of the watch to get this to work. I broke it a while back.

Sweet Mercy that looks painful!
Nice hack though, I'm always on the lookout for interesting hardware mods!
Question though, mine has started cracking too... anything other than aesthetics affected by it? Heart rate monitor or dust ingress? It would be good to know what to expect if my crack starts expanding... maybe I should dremel it preemptively?
Eek, how did you break it like that?!
Let me guess your real job is a butcher!

call motorola and get a free replacement. No reason to have a cracked back! You even get a free charging cradle out of the whole thing (and I think the replacements are stronger because I haven't had an issue since I got it swapped)

I'm in that situation where I bought it from someone who bought it in the US, and I find myself in Canada... And Motorola isn't capable of shipping me a replacement, unless I give them a US based address... Seems like too much of a hassle really, everything else is fine, and it had this tiny crack when I bought it (the guy had small wrists, much smaller than mine). I check it every night before I put it on the charger, hasn't expanded at all.
Given some horror stories I've read online of DOA units, dead pixels that aren't covered by warranty and other things, I'd rather stick with my perfectly functional one . Worst case, I'll just dremel the edges to reduce strain.
Thanks for the advice though! :good:

I'm sorry, but to be honest... It looks like ****...
Im sorry but i stall cant stop laughing
The cracks happen when using wrong bands. The metal bands push against the glass back and they crack the glass. Normally the back won't crack when using the genuine strap. I had the pebble steel on the moto360 and saw the glass started damaging so I removed it. If I had it still on then it would have cracked almost certainly
There sure are! At Southern Straps we have NATOs for the MOTO 360
Check us out when you get the chance. Out straps come with a Lifetime Warranty and our founder came from the Android Wear project.
Our bands fit Apple, Pebble and all Android Wear watches!
