Anyone using the official HTC car dock with car home ultra? The stock car app will auto launch but can't get Car home ultra to. I have used this app on my last three phones and never had this issue. Anyone else seeing this?
I am using a different dock (the iBolt xProDock for the Droid DNA that I got from Verizon, which is the same as the iBolt one for all HTC phones, but does not include the cable and usually is $10 less) and have had issues with getting it to auto launch the HTC Car app and the iBolt Car dock app which I am using now. I have been using the app called "Car Mode Control" by IG88 Apps to force it to go into Car Mode. This app has not been updated for a while, but seems to work for me unlike IG88 Apps actual Car Dock app. Car Mode Control allows you to set the default app to launch when going into Car Mode. I actually like the iBolt Car dock app for the most part and it is currently free.Same issue for me too - I'm using bluetooth to auto launch the app when it pairs with my car as a work around.

Most of the time when I unplug from the dock the Car Mode quits, but not every time. Then I have to go to the notification bar and select the item to exit Car Mode. Not sure why it is sensing on unplug, but not plug in?
Be aware that I have heard when the HTC One gets upgraded to 4.2.2 that Car Mode may stop working at all since Google removed this feature from android 4.2.
Well that would be unfortunate, I use that several times a day.Be aware that I have heard when the HTC One gets upgraded to 4.2.2 that Car Mode may stop working at all since Google removed this feature from android 4.2.
