IBolt Charging Car Dock

---

I've been shopping around for a good car dock for the one-s for a while, and am feeling excited about this little guy:

Anyone have one? What are your thoughts? I need something that will let me keep my diztronic case on and still charge the phone, this looks like the best option...

Edit: it looks like there are a few reviews on the vendors site stating that this just the one x dock repackaged

Looks really nice. A little pricier than I'd like, but looks really good.

All, I am with iBOLT. The HTC One S is the same Dock as the one for the X, that is correct. It works perfect but there's a 3-4 mm open space once inserted on the left side as the S is smaller then the X. The functionality is the same, it starts the car mode with the very good HTC car dock application but we are hearing that many are using CarHome Ultra as well since this app has more flexibility, although possible not as nice looking.

With regards to Aux-out it is correct that this Dock does not work like the iBOLT Galaxy S III Dock with integrated charging/aux-out from the microUSB cable. This is because there's no technical way of taking the aux out from the microUSB connection on the HTC platform. We wish it was since this feature has been incredibly popular on the S III. If your car-stereo features a 3.5 mm jack I would recommend the HTC Bluetooth dongle for Streaming Audio unless it can be done over the BT system.

Hope these comments helps...

I've been thinking about buying one of these but I'm confused. Someone said "no audio out" and you're saying if my car has a 3.5 mm jack get a Bluetooth dongle.

You can access the jack for the headphones when the phone is in the dock correct like shown in this picture (4)? Because I use the headphone jack for audio out. Will the dock work for me?

Probably a stupid question but my car accepts a USB input so can this dock be charged off USB

Yes, the iBOLT Dock can be charged from your USB in your car. You just have to have a microUSB to USB cord, which comes with any car charger that separates the cord from 12 volt charging plug itself.

Yes, the Dock will work if you connect an aux-out cable from the phone itself to your 3.5 mm jack on the car-stereo. This will transfer all sounds from applications, including the ring signal for incoming phone calls to the car-speakers. However, you must pair and use a Bluetooth device (headset, speaker phone, built-in system etc.) for making and receiving phone calls. If you are not connecting to a Bluetooth device for phone calls the audio will be routed to the car-stereo but as there is no microphone on the aux cable so the other party will not be able to hear you. Hope this makes sense?
