I purchased the car dock and am very happy. I use the auxiliary speaker wire to connect to my cars stereo. I hit speaker on the main menu, then exit to get apps. This works great with music or Sling Box. However, when I receive a call the phone reverts to speaker phone and not the auxiliary stereo. I have even tried placing calls from the main menu and it will not play over my cars speakers. Seems like this would be an expected hands free feature. Any information would be appreciated.

Dear willpm,
You may have tried this already but if not...
From any home screen (NOT the "main menu" screen), press the Menu button (left physical button) and then select Settings > Dock settings and click "Audio output mode" so that audio plays through the speakers when the phone is in the dock. I don't really know whether this will work for phone call audio as opposed to music audio, but worth a try.
Good luck.

Thanks for the response. I have checked the audio output mode which works for everything except the phone.

Willpm, I don't have a car dock to test, but please try pressing the speakerphone icon while on a call to see if that switches from the phone's speakers to the car speakers.
Let me know if that works.

I plug it into the headset jack rather then the bottom jack which seems to low for audio. All sounds go throug hthat way, GPS, ring, CAr speaker phone, music.

It seems like a neat piece of hardware (the USB line out) is not well supported by the software.

The default car dock soft is horrid.
Carhome and one of the others are nice.
