This just started happening recently: when I place my Nexus One in the car dock, it doesn't recognize that it is in the dock. It still charges, but Car Home doesn't start, nor does it connect to the dock via Bluetooth. I checked the connections on the bottom of the phone and in the dock, and they seem clean, and the phone does not seem loose in the dock. Any ideas/suggestions? Thanks.

Took apart both my NEXUS1 desktop Dock and Car Dock and tried it on my MYTOUCH 4G.
RESULTS
THE POINT CLOSEST TO VOLUME TOGGLE== 5 VOLT(RED)
THE POINT NEXT TO MICRO USB PORT====GROUND(BLACK)
THE MIDDLE (GREEN WIRE) SETS OFF===== DOCK APP.
(BOTH CAR AND DESK TOP DOCK start only desktop dock app and not car dock app). AND BLUETOOTH DID NOT ACTIVATE.
AND BLUETOOTH IS NOT PICKED-UP BY MYTOUCH 4G.
Hope this helps somebody, somewhere..............
helped me
so the nwxus dock pins wpuld work on a mytouch 4g, just that it dosnt connect with bluetooth... do you know how the green wire acts to make the phone be in dock mode?
I am sure there is a setting for this just cannot find in on the phone or in the hidden menus.
Problem: When the Fascinate is placed in the Verizon Car Dock and phone call is place via the bluetooth connection the call is distorted (over amplified sounds like). The sound quality of the call is simply not intelligible.
Troubleshooting the problem I narrowed the issue down to the actual car dock mount. Sound quality is GREAT when connected via bluetooth and/or connected to the car charger. Place it in the dock and whammo - crappy sound.
I understand there are small magnets that the Fascinate senses and cause the phone to go into Car Dock Mode. Anyway of turning this off?
Thanks All.
If you are referring to the verizon car dock I have the same issue. I tore the dock apart but found no magnets so I believe the issue lies in the electronics in the little black box that slides down and plugs into your phone. My work around is dial a number, when it goes to bluetooth, switch it to handsfree then back to bluetooth. Or slide the charging plug up make the call then push it back down. Yes it sucks...

thanks, I'll try it out.
I will try it out
I will try it out and let you know how I make out.
Just wanted to tell everyone I "solved" the problem of the official Samsung Car Dock not playing music and phone calls through the headset.
Well, sort of. I removed the entire "USB slider" mechanism, and just hook up the power cord and headset directly to the phone.
If you pry apart the back of the slider, there a just some small screws holding to the dock. It comes apart easily.
Not quite the software solution I would have wanted, but the official dock is pretty cheap right now compared to alternatives, so I went with it.
I dont have a car dock I just run a soldered in audible cable out of the headphone jack. Perfect audio in, but thats also because I drive a VW that I had to do that.
I'm running SC2.9.2 - car dock works just fine with the USB slider and headphone out the back. Use the Car Cradle app and hit the Speaker icon. That turns on the USB sound. Been working for several of the previous versions of Froyo also.
I'm having a lot of trouble believing that none of you guys ever pop into the Dev section.
OTB'd CM6 FTW
Wouldn't an easier solution have been to just turn dock the phone upside down then flip the dock around? No need to pull of the slider mechanism.
Just got my G2X and purchased both a card dock and a desk dock from my local T-Mobile store. The card dock is not bad and also fits my older Samsung Vibrant and my wife's iphone. I have orderd a 90 degree micro USB connector and will see if I can figure outa way to connect it tot he car dock so I can easily charge while I am driving
I am having an issue witht the desk dock which interestingly is the same issue I had with the samsing vibrant in the vibrant car dock. if I connect the phone dorectly to the laptop running Xp withthe supplied cable, it charges and I can mount the USB drives in the phone. When in the dock, it will charge but I get a USB Device not recognized error
Anone else seeing this?
The dock might only have the charging wires in it...... Is the wire you use to connect it to computer the same wire attached to the dock? Does the dock need a power supply? which dock is it so we can look it up.

My car and desk docks arrived yesterday - I ordered them online.
Same issue with the desk dock. Win7 x64 Ultimate recognizes the dock as a USB root hub but is looking for drivers.
No, it doesn't require a separate power adapter - it pulls the juice from the USB port when plugged into the computer.
If anyone has a solution it would be GREATLY appreciated!
Hi
I have a slight problem.... My TF300 had some problems 2-3 years ago. First, it only just recognized the dock after the dock was connected to the charger. Then it stopped recognizing the dock at all. I thought the dock was broken. Now i got another working one and the same problem, the tablet doesn't recognize it.
It doesn't charge the tablet, keyboard and trackpad aren't working either.
The tablet can be charged (directly with the cable) and exchange data with my pc over cable.
Is that a known issue? And what is broken there?
Factory Reset hasn't helped
