Max volume doesn't with on droid x!

Great idea.. but the speakerphone option (on ver 1.5) only turns on the speakerphone for the first call.. then seems to revert to normal. - Desire

Installed this on a D1 and my battery life dropped to around 5 hours per charge. Did what it was supposed to do, if they fix the battery issue.

Should not turn off blue tooth if device is paired and call in progress. More important, mutes microphone randomly during calls. Uninstall.

Works well with native car dock app on G2. Does not work with Car Dock v2 (at least on Motorola Charm)

The app was great until I updated to gingerbread on my Droid X now it won't open.

T70%
by T####:

Seems to be causing my DroidX some confusion on volumes. Not sure why it doesn't take phone off vibrate automatiically. Otherwise, performs nicely.

Had to reboot phone to get a2dp working, but aside from that, works nicely. Would be good to have app launch on dock.

Y70%
by Y####:

Since Gingerbread on my Droid X it does not automatically turn on GPS. So my Car Dock app that I use is useless untill I go to settings and turn on GPS manually. Not very fun to do while Driving!

Really Good app just what I wanted plug the phone in the car dock and it sets itself up

Y70%

Good app. Will give 5 * s when it actually restores settings of my D2G when I unplug from dock.

Works great on the Samsung Galaxy S i9000, thanks to the dev.

M70%

Does not seem to work for me since upgrade to Gingerbread / CM7 on EVO. Will not auto toggle the settings unless I explicitly open the Car Dock Settings application while docked. Like it's not detecting dock mode while running as a service. Other solutions I've tried do work under CM7 but either have fewer features (DockCarSwitches) or are overkill for what I need (Tasker).

Real nice app but needs data toggle.

Great companion if one uses google car home.

Works perfectly on Droid X. Wish it would auto restore wifi but thats just me being lazy!

Exactly what I needed to stop the volume changing when I plugged in in my car.

Y70%

Wont change volume. Otherwise good.

T70%
by T####:

thanks for the great app. i notice my wifi was still off when unplug. so, i am not sure if all settings have been normalized back to pre-doc status. at the same time, wonder how i turn off docking apps, i notice i have to switch back to my home page and hit the car doc icon again before car doc is shut down. if i dont do that, my home button will show car doc app when i touch it. am i right using your apps? i gave a rating of medium as i am not sure if me or the apps' issue. thanks jason

Didn't turn GPS on most times. Found the fix for the GPS on the developer's website- now works perfectly.

Less work when docking, but needs wifi restore and 4g control to be automatic

B70%
by B####:

I spend a lot of time on the road, and this little widget makes it much easier to switch to car mode and out again.

by M####:

When undocking, Bluetooth attempts to turn off but stays on until reboot. Didn't use to happen before upgrading to 4.2. Other third party apps can turn it on and off just fine.

Turns on GPS and wifi off as promised. Could not test the volume party BC I have the motorola mount that goes thru USB not the jack.

This is a super app used in combination with car mode app but Enable Background Data doesn't work on my galaxy s 2. Otherwise brilliant

After the last update everything is working great in my DROIDX.

M70%
by M####:

This app does exactly what I need it to do, perfectly. I just wish for two additional features: - option to auto-start any chosen app on docking (& possibly also undocking) - auto-lock screen on undocking. I believe Car Dock Home v3 can do that, but I don't need the other functionality of Car Dock Home v3 (I don't want the phone to change its UI when docked).

I used to use it to activate gps but it doesn't work on ics :( too bad...

M70%
by M####:

Works like a charm for the main reasons I wanted it. Only issue I have is it changes so many settings it makes the transition from phone to car dock a bit sluggish, but that's understandable considering all it has to do in those few seconds. If this process could be sped up a bit I'd give 5 stars

Its great and perfect to my need but wish the developer will add turn back wifi on if disabled

Doesn't this stuff come included in car Dock v3?

M70%

This works great, auto turns on my bluetooth when docked, prefect for streaming Pandora when I get into my car.

Doesn't work with dock for ASUS transformer.
