Good iphone car mount that works with case?

I need a car mount for my iPhone so that I can use the phone's GPS app. I've looked around and so far I can only find mounts that work for iPhones without any case.
I would rather not have to remove the case everytime I got in my car, so are there any recommended mounts out there that work for phones with cases?
Thanks!

Griffin makes an FM/lighter mounted model, which has several bottom mounting brackets, to fit several phone models. I tested it out today, but the ipod buttons on the model don't work correctly, and FM was spotty to awful, as always on these type of setups. It did hold my naked cellphone well, and wish it had worked as advertised - cost about $100 at Best Buy.
Belking has a similar model (about $70 at Best Buy), without the FM transmitter, also on a lighter stalk, which may work, since it grips the top of the phone with a wider clip, made to adapt to case thicknesses, I presume. I have not tried out this model, but may do so, since I have never found a single FM transmitter that works well - too much static, fading in and out, etc.
Is there anyone who can recommend a lighter mounted (on a flexible stalk) charger for the iphone, that has a stalk long enough to accommodate any rental car, I would very much appreciate it.

  • Car charger that works with the bumper case?

    Does anyone know which, if any, brands of car chargers and models that work with the new bumper case? I went to best buy yesterday and they all looked too thick to even buy it and give it a try.

    I'm pretty sure the lack of functionality with car chargers and the bumper case is simply because the cutouts for the USB connector on the bumper is too small..that's the only reason. Otherwise it will work; it's simply a physical problem with the connector not seating properly; that's it.
    I'm saying this based on my own situation. I have a Griffin car charger /FM receiver that worked with my iPhone 3G and it worked with my iPhone 4 until I put the bumper case on.
    The situation is the same situation as to why the Apple supplied USB cable that shipped with the 3G does not work with the iPhone 4 w/bumper. Apple redesigned the size of the USB connector and sized the cutout on the bumper for their new smaller size making the bumper not backwards compatible with existing devices with the older size USB connectors. The size differential is not that big but it's big enough to cause problems.

  • I Need a Car Mount That WORKS!!

    I've been through two car mounts...the iOttie that Apple.com sells, and another bought at BestBuy. Both encountered the same problem in my car...
    I need the mount to stick to a plastic surface that is curved. My first failed attempt had a sticky suction cup...it was not sticky enough and the suction cup does not work on plastic.
    I'm desperately trying to find a good solution...any recommendations?

    HI Peter,
    I would recommend the Tackform Ultra Grip.. One thing I want to point out is that most of the quality sticky suction cups will still stick to a slightly curved surface. The issue many people run into is that the actual dashboard material is porous and over a few hours or days the air slowly seeps through and you lose suction. In this case there really wouldn't be a good direct to dash suction cup solution for you.. The Tackform Ultra Grip comes with an additional 3M pad that you can use first but many people don't like putting any type of adhesive on your dash.
    If you're looking for solid. The Ultra Grip locks on super tight to surfaces. It has a bigger suction cup than most mounts out there.

  • How Can I choose Iphone 5s models that work with LTE in Brazil. The Iphone needs to Support Band 7. If I buy the wrong model can apple change it ?

    I am planning to buy an Iphone 5s in October, but I have to make sure that the model will work with the LTE services we have in Brazil. I know that Apple made 2 Models that support Band 7. See Below.
    Model A1457*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20)
    Model A1530*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); FDD-LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20); TD-LTE (Bands 38, 39, 40)
    How can I make sure I will buy the correct model through the internet ? Can Apple change the Iphone In case they send the model that does not support LTE services in Brazil ?
    Thanks,

    Have you personally tried those models with Brazilian LTE networks? Do they work? If so, fine.  If not, then besides that, there is the problem of the warranty which is not international. The user will have to return the phone back to the country of purchase for both warranty and out of warranty service. So what might seem cheaper at first glance might not be in the end.
    Anyways, it your money and the OP's should he want to go ahead with your recommendation.

  • Docking Speakers that Work with Hard Case

    Hey there. I am going to get an iPod Video and I am going to be getting a hard case for it and because of previous iPod experiences, I do not want to take my iPod out of it ever again. Thus, as I look for docking speakers, one of my main concerns is that I can dock the iPod whilst the case is still on. Are there any good docking speakers that work with the Contour iSee hard case?

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hey!
    By appearances it looks much like the Agent 18 case I use.Although I can't see the Dock access on the one you are looking at but they say "easy access to ports".If that's the case,you should be able to use the Bose Sounddock.I do and never take my Pod out.Just can't use the insert(not a major problem)for a snug fit.I can use all the ususal dock connectors too.Also,when you get your 5th Gn,leave the plastic film on the front.Also protects your clickwheel,and from scratches off the case itself.It does happen....
    Cheers,

  • Case that works with smart cover on?

    Has anyone seen any shells or cases that work with the smart cover on? I have only come across one.
    Thanks

    SF Bags, aka Waterfield Designs, has several designs made to fit the iPad 2 with the Smart Cover. I, too, have the original Ultimate Exo Sleevecase, but it is a bit large for the iPad 2. They recommend buying the "non-Exo" Ultimate case for the IPad 2.
    One case that I particularly like is the SmartCase, and they make a model that fits with iPad 2 with the Smart Cover; it has a pouch on the back for earphones, etc.. I have a similar one for my iPhone and it is very well-made and offers a lot of protection.
    They have seven different iPad cases and several are designed specifically for the iPad 2 with the SmartCover.
    If you have any questions, you can write them, and they answer them promptly.

    Hi ron1098,
    Try my application Dates to iCal. it runs on the Mac, but you can sync the calendar to your iOS device.
    See more about Dates to iCal here. It is £4 shareware with a 2 week demo.

  • Is there a good free qraphic equalizer that works well with iTunes?

    Is there a good free graphic equalizer that works well with iTunes?

    I find plenty of audio editing tools but few playback controls.
    Example- The equalizer in iTunes is rather bland.
    Any old stereo system has a better display.
    The controls are icing on the cake for audio
    but I'd pay for a complete array of adjustments.
    The more lights, bells, whistles,the better. 
    PS-That would also make an awesome screen saver

  • I need a keyring (that works with network-manager)

    Hi there,
    I'm new to Arch linux (coming from Ubuntu) and I'm wondering how to set up a keyring that works with that gnome-network-manager applet and ssh(fs). I previously used GNOME and the gnome keyring, and all out of the box.
    I couldn't find any manuals on how to set up the gnome-keyring in Arch linux, neither regarding ssh(fs) nor network-manager. I read people are complaining about network-manager asking for the keyring-unlocking-password, but this doesn't happen for me.
    How do I set up the gnome-keyring propertly?

  • Routers that work with iChat AV?

    Since Apple's list of approved routers hasn't been updated for years, I would love to hear from anyone who has purchased a router recently that works with iChat for audio/video, including any special setting changes/tips. Could anyone with a success story post here? I'm tired of the error 8 messages which in at least some cases seems to be router related.

    @stevesol
    I have used the DI-604 for about 5 years now. It is a great and cheap router/firewall. The only problem that I have ever had was an odd one. I have a mac pro. i have an external amp that I use for playing my music through. I had a cable run from the rear audio out to the amp. After the last firmware update (mac pro EFI firmware update 1.1) I could not use ichat anymore. If I bypassed the router and went straight to the modem then all was fine. It turned out that there was a major conflict with my setup using the router and rear audio out port but if i used the front headphone jack everything was fine. Other than that the DI-604 is very good. I open port 5190 on the router and have good results. If you are not sure how to open up ports then check out this site. It shows to open up a whole pile of ports but the 5190 port works fine for me.
