I may be crazy but I believe I read Google saying there would also be a car dock accompanying the desktop dock. Is this still coming? The only ones I have seen are 3rd party from China, and don't appear reliable. If it's coming is this the dock that resembles are Garmin GPS window holder?
I posted this in a different thread, but today I noticed that in the official support pages it used to say, "You can use Car Home whether or not you have a Nexus One car dock the optional accessory(coming soon)."
now it says, "You can use Car Home whether or not you have a Nexus One car dock the optional accessory available from http://google.com/phone."
hopefully this means the official car dock will be joining the desk dock on the order screen any day now.
Hopefully it is soon, as I really want the desktop dock but don't want to pay separate shipping to UK for both.
I've been checking often because this is the one accessory that I've been waiting and waiting for its arrival. What are the chances that it will have an audio out plug? I know I could use the headphone jack but I'd like to see a dedicated audio out and power input to the dock.
The car Dock is mentioned in the help files at the Nexus site at google .com/phone
Im also waiting till there both available before I buy, to save on shipping. I hope its available soon, can't wait till I can use it!
I really hope that it's not a suction mount only!
I'd only get it it if can be fixed to my proclip mount, no vent clip or suction cup for me!
Anybody in the UK fancy splitting on postage and ordering two when available?

That's very good news they must be getting close to selling it
Thats gotta be the worst tease I have seen in a while . I would probably cry (getting the home dock instead).
But good news for the rest of us indeed . Thanks for putting that out there that that crazy thing happened.
I Know the phone is old but I think I want a dock. Whats a good one to get besides the one thats available by HTC in their market? I'd like to not spend THAT much money on a dock
Same request by me!
Heres some of the Docks for the Nexus, although personally I like the HTC OEM Dock.

Thanks. Are there any other ones that look "better"
Also whats this I hear about OEM dock charging thru some other means rather than the usb pin?
Yes, If you look at the bottom of your N1, you see those golden pins. These are used to charge the device with the OEM dock. I have it on my nightstand and I love it. I should add a stereo to my bedroom so I can also stream music with it.

Compared to my G1 dock, and the wife's Captivate dock, I've got to say that the "connectorless" charging on the HTC dock is just awesome. Yes, the dock is pricey, but being able to (literally) drop the phone on the dock rather than carefully seat it is really great. Need to grab the phone, no "hold the dock with one hand and pull the phone with the other"...just grab the phone.
There are complaints about the phone vibrating in the dock and losing connection, but that hasn't happened to me, and the benefits of docking with the gold pins is huge IMHO. I strongly encourage the OP to consider the HTC dock (unless there's a 3rd party dock that uses those pins, but I don't think there is).
Spend the extra money and go for the HTC OEM Dock. You won't regret it!

Totally agreed...
I have recently purchased the desktop dock and its well worth the extra money because of blue-tooth connectivity. FYI This works whether the phone is docked or not.
What ok really dislike about the dock is that as soon as you remove the phone from the stand it will interrupt the bluetooth connection and switch sound back from the hifi to the phones lousy loudspeakers. Even if you just pick it up to read iure were a text. When you drop it again the phone turns on bluetooth again and tries to reconnect with the dock which takes about 40 second in total. And totally unnecessary! As far as I understand when I take the phone from the dock not the dock but the phone turns off its bluetooth therefor it's only a question of cellphone implementation. But I haven't found a tweak yet that changes the phones dock settings. If anyone has ideas on how to solve this inconvenience i4 be glad to hear them. But beside that the dock I is stylish and useful...

Just curious as to what other people use their keyboard dock for other than typing. Like, can it be used with any games such as first person shooters in combination with a usb mouse? Ive gotten some emulators to work. Also, i have a modified original xbox controller that i spliced a usb cable on the end of the cord. It works great on my pc as a controller. Anyone know what games might be compatible with that besides emulators?

It works really well for playing SNES games on the SuperGNES emulator (Play Store).
I'm not sure about your modified Xbox controller, but I have an original wired Xbox controller that works immediately when I plug it into the dock. Of course, some games weren't made to support the controller, but the ones that do work very well.

I didnt buy the the dock because I wanted a tablet not a notebook! The only good things about the dock is that you get extra battery life and a USB and a sd card slot! For me I bought the USB adapter and a hard case that came with a bluetooth keyboard, tablet stand for $50 plus a 6ft hdmi and a bluetooth mouse total cost for all was $80. And I also already had a xbox wired controller that hooks up to the usb adapter that i bought works without a hitch.

If you just wanted a tablet and not a notebook, why did you bother to get a case with a bluetooth keyboard?
Just because you have a keyboard dock, doesn't mean that you can't use the device as a tablet (that "reason" makes no sense, especially when you buy a bluetooth keyboard/case to use with the tablet!). It literally takes 2 seconds to un-dock it and use it as a "normal" tablet (much quicker than than getting a bluetooth keyboard connected).
Plus, it also acts as a case, a stand, an SD card reader, a USB hub, a trackpad and an extra battery! The keyboard dock is single best accessory that I've purchased for *any* device! It's a bargain @ $150, in my opinion.
Personally, if I wasn't interested in the keyboard dock, I probably would have purchased a different tablet alltogether... After all, that is one of the primary features of the Transformer series (and why they are named as such)!

I bought the case for travel and the keyboard and stand were part of it! It just sweetened the deal when I bought the case! And IMO the dock is no way worth $150 smackers and if you drop it on concrete you just dont ruin the tablet you probably screwed up the dock as well. And the bluetooth mouse can be used anywhere not just on the tab! And being tech savvy like yourself there really should be any reason for you to need a SD reader you probably have a few of those laying around. I know I do. And with the bluetooth keyboard ya just flip the power on and it connects its a little thing bout the size of the docks keyboard bout a 1/8 inch thick. Maybe if the dock wasnt so expensive I might of bought 1 but seeing how the case came with bluetooth enabled keyboard that can be used with other gadgets and not just for the tab seemed the smarter way for me! And by the way what other tablet would you have bought?
I purchased the dock, and the transformer because I wanted to be able to use the single item that I carry with me, for everything.
The TF700, which started out with the TF201 for me, is an amazing tablet in it's own right. Plenty of power, a crystal clear screen, and no excess crap thrown into it as a skin.
The dock, which is the same one from my TF201, is the best accessory in the world. It gives me extra battery life, which means that since the day I've purchased it, I haven't ever had to charge it mid-day. The extra SD card slot lets me put another 128gb of storage onto it, which using the keyboard dock as a stand, is perfect for watching movies, and the Pinky & The Brain episodes that I've put on it. If I ever need to take notes, work on a project, or use splashtop to remote into my computer, I have the full function of a keyboard, without anything missing.
I didn't purchase this in place of a netbook, instead I purchased it as a compliment to my laptop. But I've found that since I had the Transformer, I haven't used my laptop at all on the road. So I've given up, started carrying a smaller bag, and am perfectly content with my TF700 and dock.
I started my tablet career out with the Motorola Xoom. A tablet which I loved dearly. I purchased many accessories for it, but none compared to the functionality of the Transformer series dock. I haven't bothered to root my TF700, and with Volume+ working on it perfectly fine, I don't need any extra speakers to go with it at all.
Oh, and the full USB port? Yeah, that works perfectly with my external hard drive. I wasn't sure it would have enough juice to power it, but it works so amazingly! I'm still waiting on my friend for a PS3 controller to go with it all.

May not have been worth $150, but it was worth every penny of the $99
If you travel thd Dock is totally worth it. The battery on flights is a lifesaver. And you could get a bunch of accessories (external battery, USB adapter, BT mouse, etc etc etc. But then you have a bunch of things to keep track of and lose (I guess you COULD be responsible though )

I am looking to get a TF700T and use it as a headunit in my truck. To do this I need a charging dock that also has a 3.5mm out so I can go from that to RCA in my amp. So far all the docks I see are for the keyboard which I do not need. I've seen a few old threads about docks which look awesome but never seem to have been released.
So are there any docks which fit the description? This is a deal breaker for me if not
As crap as it may be as a hanging unit, are you referring to something like this:

I'm looking for a car mount dock built for my Galaxy Note 4 that will:
Support Charging and audio streaming
Not be in the way of the volume and power buttons on the Galaxy Note 4
Positioning - Will hold my Note 4 in Landscape mode
I'm currently using an IBolt, which is a little difficult to set in. After playing with it, it sets in, "OK" if I change the USB port so it plugs in on the left side, fs the right. However, that makes my Home/Back keys on the left side as well, a bit awkward when driving. I had it pointed the other way, but the mount would hit my volume buttons. One thing I miss dearly about my old DROID RAZR MAXX is the car mount which was built to fit the device. I wish something similar existed for the Note 4.

iBolt xProDock
the IOttie for the Note 2. It'll be more about how you position the phone than anything else. Although, I don't think it's what you're wanting.
I got the iottie one touch 2 and it is by far the best universal mount I've had.
Since I don't use my CD player/slot, I purchased this one a couple of years ago for my Galaxy Nexus. Now I am using it for my Note 4, which fits perfectly, and holds it securely in place.

How do you like it? I have this one.
Yeah none of those are ones that interest me. So far, the only one that I see that I partially like, is the one I currently have, the iBolt cardock. Again, it's got a built-in Micro USB connector. It's not really "built-in", but I think "connected" is more of the word. The USB "splits" into your AUX port and then your USB, effectively making the USB port serve as a dual functioning port: charging and streaming music. I use my phone for Pandora and Navigation. Unfortunately, the Note 4 doesn't seem to currently support USB audio streaming, so I'm stuck right now with plugging a separate 3.5mm into the top of my phone. Not very convenient, as it takes me another half a minute to hook up. As it is, it basically takes me 2 1/2 minutes to snap my Note 4 into my current iBolt dock, then plug in both the USB and the 3.5mm audio cord. With my old phone, the car mount was a rigid plate with a single usb port built-in, it literally took me about 8 seconds to dock, in comparison. Plus, I only had one cord to deal with. Right now, I've got two.
If I was as impressed with the DROID ULTRA as I am with the Note 4, I would've stuck with it, in hopes of the same kinds of docks, BUT, I can't do without a Micro USB and I wanted the bigger screen size. For those reasons, I don't regret my decision to get a Note 4.
Edit: I was thinking about it and I'm thinking I should've said "car dock" instead of "car mount", if that makes more sense to some people.

It works well for me, as I've been using it for a few years now. I don't care for the dash or windshield mounts, as I am always worried the mount (along with my phone) is going to fall off! Plus in my car, my dash is small, and has no flat area - so there's really no place to put a phone mount. Which is why I was happy to find the CD mount, as it works well and doesn't block my view.

I've also been looking around for a good car docking solution as my Note 4 is due to be delivered on Tues. I was hoping to use it in-car for both nagivation and music and considering a standard universal dash mount, with the iBolt Dock n Play cable, however I assume from the above quote this will not work?
Cable - http://www.amazon.co.uk/iBolt-Micro...?ie=UTF8&qid=1414950162&sr=8-6&keywords=ibolt
If so, I have to also assume the iBolt xProDock won't work too, which is a pity as it's on sale on Amazon. I'm also weary of using a 12V USB adapter as I've read numerous reviews of branded versions such as Belkin catching fire...

This is exactly what I have.

It does not come with a charger, so I bought this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00G5VQIMM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
This didn't work with my old DROID RAZR MAXX but it appears to work with my Note 4. I see the lightning bolt in the notifications area, indicating that it's charging.
Again, the iBolt DOES NOT work to stream audio through the cable to your AUX port on your radio. I think this is just a feature that Android does not currently support, but I hear it will in Android L. It's weird, though because my old DROID RAZR MAXX was able to stream audio via USB, and I had a car dock for it. The cable for it looked similar to the cable you posted, the one that came with the iBolt looks a bit different, it plugs into a box which serves as a splitter, which makes me think that it's the cable itself that could be just incompatible, I don't know, to be honest. With my old car dock, the cable started getting shorted out, which is why I bought the iBolt, figuring it would work just fine w/ whatever phone I got next, since my MAXX was approaching its end of life. Maybe I will just take a shot in the dark and purchase that same cable, but from a US link if I can find it.

I just got this one. Seems great so far. It sticks really well, and hold the phone securely. The arms length is nice, because you can extend it.
I like how it doesn't obstruct the camera. I plan on using it for a dash cam along with navigation.

Thanks for the suggestion, as I had not heard of the iOttie XL before. I checked it out on Amazon just now, as well as read through some of the reviews (looking for Note 4 reviews). So as soon as my current one breaks (if it does), I'll look into this one as a replacement. =)
Just thought I'd chime in here as finding a good car dock has been high on my priority list as well. First thing I'll say is yes, I can confirm that at this point the Note 4 DOES NOT currently support audio out over USB without the use of an OTG cable and DAC. It is possible to do it, but you need the extra hardware. This issue has been discussed in several threads, so just do a little searching and you should be able to find out the whole story. However, it has been confirmed that Lollipop is including audio out over USB as a standard feature, although I haven't been able to find a complete answer as to whether that just means every device will be able to use an OTG cable and DAC or that we'll be able to use usb/audio splitter cables like the iDock. The Lollipop features page DOES say that it will support all kinds of USB audio devices such as speakers and stereos, so I'm very hopeful, but we'll just have to wait and see.
As for actual dock options, I got totally hooked on using a magnetic dock back with my GS4. I originally picked up the Logitech magnetic car dock which worked fantastic with the s4, but with the added weight and size of the Note 4 it started to have some trouble. I ended up replacing it with the Bracketron Si dash mount, and it's been working perfectly. It has a very strong magnet, which I definitely need as I use an S-View cover which adds bulk to the back of the phone. The way these work is you get a few metal plates with the mount that give the magnet something to grab onto, and you can either stick it to the back of your phone with the double-sided tape on it or you can put it under the battery cover so that you don't have a big square piece of metal stuck to your device The Bracketron's magnet is strong enough to hold the phone with the metal plate under the battery cover AND with the S-View flap flipped around behind it, which is pretty impressive and certainly beats any other magnetic mount I've tried. There's also two little feet that flip out under the magnet to provide a little extra support, which is a nice bonus with this whale of a phone. It even has a clip for cable management.
So far I've been super happy with this, I do still have to manually plug the phone in but it's really nice to be able to just drop the phone in the mount and not have to fiddle with arms or clamps or anything. I'm lucky enough to have bluetooth in my car, so I still only have the one cable to connect as well.
I bought mine at Best Buy, but here's the link to Bracketron's page so you know what I'm talking about: http://www.bracketron.com/products/si-dash-mount#.VFeVJvnF92s
I've been looking into completely wireless solutions for the car and home, and I'm on the fence about whether to go with Qi or wait for one of the newer magnetic charging options to become available for the Note 4, but until wireless charging becomes possible I'm totally satisfied with the Bracketron.
That Bracketron looks pretty cool, but would interfere with my Qi chargers....
Well yah, like I said, UNTIL I find a suitable wireless charging solution I'm satisfied with the bracketron. There are magnetic docks that also do Qi charging, not many though. I think Airdock is the only one that is currently out that works with any device and doesn't need it's own proprietary case http://www.theairdock.com/ Looks decent, but I worry about whether it'll be able to hold up the Note 4 and also whether it'll work with my S-View case on. It does come with a magnetic sticker that supposedly helps, may try it at some point. What I REALLY think I'd like though would be something like this: http://www.revocharge.com/ or REALLY this: http://www.patriotmemory.com/product/detail.jsp?prodline=6&catid=100&prodgroupid=291&id=8253&type=37
The Fuel iON for the s4 looks amazing, I love that the case includes s-view and that there's direct magnetic connection to the docks, looks like it'd charge faster and more reliably than Qi as well. Just hope they decide to make a case for the Note 4 :/
Bracketron looks pretty cool. Unfortunately, I just bought one of those UAG cases, that should arrive in a couple of days. I doubt I could use that case instead of the one that comes with the Bracketron. I'm hoping that I like the UAG case, at least. I just wanted to add width to my phone. I'll look into the AIR case as well.
Too bad there isn't a company that makes customized car docks based on your phone and case using 3D printing, that'd be pretty awesome.
