Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Phone feels loose on the mount. | Phone not fully engaged with the bracket, or bracket not securely fastened to the wall. | Ensure the phone is slid down completely onto the bracket tabs. Check wall screws for tightness. |
| Mount is wobbly on the wall. | Screws are loose, or wall anchors are not properly installed/suited for the wall material. | Retighten screws. If problem persists, consider using different wall anchors or consulting a professional. |
| Cables are difficult to manage. | Improper cable routing. | Route cables through the designated channels on the phone and mount (if available) or use cable ties to keep them tidy. |
