Ever since I installed the Froyo leak, I have no sound when the phone is in the charging dock. I don't have any speakers hooked up to it, and it used to work on 2.1. I use it for my alarm clock in the morning so this is kind of a problem. The alarm shows up on the phone but there is no sound. Is there a setting for this? I know the dock is supposed to work with speakers now but I'm hoping it will still work without them too for my alarm. Thanks!

I saw something about a setting to go from the 3.5mm jack to to phone speaker and vice versa. Anybody seen this or know where I can find it?

I dont know whether its just my phone or not but whenever im out and about listening to music (using standard earphones) and i get a call, i know i have to unplug the earphones cause it doesn't have microphone built in but the problem is that as soon as my callz over the music continues loudspeaker style until i put ma earphones back in.. is ther a way to maybe pause it before the call or as soon as i accept the call?

BUt they are using ones without mic, i think.
I got one nice thing (appart from some more) with my X10, it's a cord with only a mic on it and the mic has a regular 3.5 headphone jack for use with whatever headphones or spekars that you'd like, also the mic has an answering button. Should be able to find it at retailers.

Woopz shouldav wrote that i found another way.. that was to use meridian as my music app.. lookz ok, works pretty quick, pauses music when callz arrive and theres option to continue after call endz, ability to create playlists, also has a nice music control widget which mediascape lacks and drainz much less than it an all. Id highly recommend it if you use mediascape alot for music!!
Ps - if it helpz.. i tested mediascape once last week, full volume using earphones, no wifi, 3g, bt or gps.. in 1hr it drained 13%, did the same test next day with meridian app and lost 3%.. did that same test during this week except i accidentally had 3g left on and miracally it used up only 1%!
Hope it helpz!!

I use regular headphones with the X10, when I get a phone call while listening to music, it pauses, lets me answer the call, then resumes when I plug the headphones back in.
Could be another carrier specific thing though, since talking on trains/loud music is not allowed here.
Hmm jus outta curiosity (although i stil prefer meridian) do you straight away put your headphones in after call or take your time?
Ps - did extra test on meridian, same scenario except this time it was for just over 8hrz.. lost 40%!

I've noticed this a few time about my phone... occasionally i've found sound is coming out of the ear piece for some reason.... any other people having a similar issue like this? I can only fix via reboot.
Stock Rooted w/ lag fix and morphed bar/icons...
I sometimes get this issue too. Usually I hit pause, pull out the jack, and jam it back in there. It works.

This actually happens with nothing playing.. All of a sudden all the sounds just come out of the ear speaker
XDA app via Samsung Vibrant
That used to happen to my rooted G1. Maybe it's a glitch with the root method you used. I am also stock root and have not noticed that yet.
My headset Jack is a bit touchy though and sometimes music or whatever will start playing through the handset.

I like the new verizon car dock but when I make or receive a voice call through my factory bluetooth system (Dodge Nitro with factory nav system) the call quality is horrible. If I toggle from bluetooth to speaker phone back to bluetooth the call quality is fixed. Anyone else experienced this?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Have you tried the car home app from the Vibrant? I personally like that one better than the Mesmerize one. I'm curious if it has the same Bluetooth issue, but I have no Bluetooth system in my Jeep to try it out myself.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
No I just turn my bluetooth on and let it do its things thing while paired to my trucks sound system. When I refer the verizon car dock I mean the "mount" that holds and charges the phone. Just making sure we are talking about the same thing...
Thx
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Oh, sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you were referring to the application. I don't know why the dock mount itself would have anything to do with your Bluetooth quality though. As far as I know, the dock only provides charging and audio output capabilities. Do you also have the issue when your phone isn't plugged into the car dock and linked with your MyGig system? If so, you might need to make a warranty claim and get a replacement phone.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
This "only" happens when the phone is in the car dock when the charger is slid down and into the phone.
I stopped my local verizon store this afternoon and tried another dock and it did the same thing.
The service rep said when the phone is put into the dock a magnet in the dock makes the phone go into car dock mode and adjust the speaker volume for hands free and nothing can be done about it without changing to a different brand of dock. I tore my dock completely apart... They're is no magnet anywhere. I am stumped.

I use an auxiliary cable to connect my phone to the headunit in my car for audio play back..it normally worked great but since I've flashed roms its been glitching up..it happened with Iced Glacier and the DHD roms.
While listening to music the icon on the status bar shows a headset (has a mouth piece) instead of the normal headphones, theres no external headset connected..
Then it seems like there is some sort of g-sensor motion that will start randomly skipping thru tracks and activates the voice call menu (choose between vlingo, vlingo car, or voice search).the phone will lag like hell and start calling people..terrible.then as soon as I unplug the auxiliary cable it works perfectly fine, no force closes or freezes at all.
Anyone else experiencing issues like this?

It seems like any slight movement activates the voice dialing function or fast forward. It happens everytime..

Please post questions in Q&A section.
No one else with headphone/auxiliary cable issues??
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Issue persist even with using a different music app (poweramp) and a different lockscreen (widgetlocker)...
I recently froze the Genius app, voice dialer, and vlingo...we'll see what happens next time
Figured is update incase anyone else is having issues.
Anyone else having audio playback/headset issues download 'headset blocker'

Anyone get the 3.5mm plug to work on the car dock / desk cradle after flashing DL30?
I thought the requirement was 2.2, but can't seem to get it to work.
It works
on both the car dock app and music app there is a phone icon. Click it. It will change the output from the phone to the dock.

It would be nice to have a toogle widget so that it wouldn't app dependent.

I can't find the icon. Does out only appear when the phone its in the dock? Can you use programs other than Music Player (such as Pandora, Listen, etc.)?
When you place the phone in the dock and the app launches (car dock or desk dock) select the icon. I would imagine once you have done this you can run another app (like pandora) and it should work

Anyone get the app to launch on dock when using Launcher Pro? Before a hit of the home key would launch the app, but now that doesnt seem to work. Anyone?

That's correct. Once you select the icon in the car dock app, just go back to your home by hitting the back button and launch any other app and it should play through the dock. I confirmed with Pandora and SlingPlayer.
You wont see the icon on the car dock or music player unless it is actually docked.
Hope this helps.
I get the steering wheel icon in the notification bar but the app didn't launch. Does it show on the car dock app?
Edit: I was a delta alpha. I located said button in the car stock program. I was confused because the dock didn't automatically pop up like it did in previous versions. I had to start it while in the dock. My only complaint now is that I have to manually switch it every time.

Has anyone else noticed that the sound quality is severely degraded when running through the dock instead of a direct connection to the 3.5mm jack?
I mean I'm talking absolutely terrible audio quality. Am I the only one? Try connecting a decent pair of headphones directly to the phone and then to the dock, the difference will be very, very apparent.
Try turning down your media volume on the phone while in the dock and using an external amp to control the volume. This sort of thing happens when my internal Sirius radio volume is turned up to full and then run into into the car stero.
It worked fine...sound a bit degraded though, but never the less, it works. Now byebye carrying ipod around.

My Dock has a lot of static, even when I have no sound playing. When I remove the power, the static goes away until I plug the power back in. I have tried a USB cable and the same static happens. When I have the same speaker setup plugged into the headphone on the phone, no static. Does anyone else have this issue?
Yea, noticed that too. I thought it was my cable.

I have noticed this even without the dock, mine I believe is a whine related to the charging, as it always stopped if I removed the charger while connected to radio. Only way I found to reduce it was to set the phone volume to about 13 or so, so I wouldn't have to run the car stereo quite as high of a volume.
Picked up the Verizon car dock today and what a joy it is to finally be able to use it for audio. As previously stated, you must use the official Car Cradle app to activate the 3.5mm jack. Since the app is basically crap (Bing, Verizon Navigator), I use Custom Car Doc, which allows you to choose whatever apps you want listed. I put Car Cradle on there and am golden. Just use it to activate the jack, then back out and you can use Custom Car Doc normally.
As for audio quality, it sounds great to me. Many cars add audio interference when the phone is plugged into the cig lighter. Amazon carries several cures for this. I installed a Pyramid NS12 12 Amp InLine Noise Suppressor, which was $6 including shipping, and it did the trick on my Mazdaspeed3.
I got the cardock to work, but not the desk cradle. I think in the superclean it was removed. It has the ASOP desk , there is no speaker button.
I use Alarm Clock Plus for my home dock and it has the speaker button.
I didn't like the stock car dock app, so I was using Custom Car Home for a while. That didn't have the speaker button. Then I tried Google Car Home. I could activate the speaker by going into the stock Music app, bit not from the Google Car Home app itself.
I guess ill have to buckle down and try the stock Samsung app. They suck.

After using DL30 for a few days, I have to say, the car cradle and desktop cradle both gives soo much static....
At least the car is more barable, but the desk was not barable.
I posted a request in the Apps section for someone to 'de-bing' the stock Froyo app, no result yet. What I did find, however, is that you can activate the dock audio from *any* of the apps that support it. So, you can activate it directly from the music app if you want to use the Google car dock, or you can activate it from the Stock Car dock if you choose to swap out to the AOSP music player. Just don't pull move like me and replace BOTH with AOSP apps and then kick yourself when you have to restore lol.
