Description

IBOLT DOCKMODE IS ONLY NEEDED IF YOU HAVEN'T GOT AN ACTIVE CAR DOCK LIKE THE XPRODOCK.


***** Please take a look at our video to see how this application is working *****

“iBOLT DockMode” offers an easy way to set the "iBOLT Dock'n Drive" application as the "home screen" when driving. With DockMode turned to "on" the user can just press the home button after using a GPS Navigation or Music App (for example) and the screen will switch back to the easy-to-use "iBOLT Dock'n Drive" interface.

NOTE: "Deskhome Display" MUST be selected under "Settings-Accessory" on Samsung Galaxy phones for the Dock Mode to work.

The "DockMode" is built for Android devices that do not allow "DockMode" triggering via the microUSB cable. Examples are Nexus 4/5, LG G2 and Sony Xperia devices. For HTC and Samsung Galaxy handsets we recommend buying an iBOLT "active car-dock" that includes microUSB charging cable with integrated "DockMode".

Together with our “iBOLT Dock’n Drive” app you’ll have the perfect driving experience. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ibolt.carhome) (Requires version 2.2.2 or higher of Dock'n Drive)

NOTE: This application is only enabling and disabling the Android build-in car mode. The functionality is depending on your device firmware. Not all firmwares are supporting this virtual dock mode. Usually all firmwares running Android Jelly Bean 4.3 and higher should support the virtual dock mode. Some lower Android versions are also working fine depending on your device.

HOW TO USE THIS APP?

On Samsung devices please make sure you got the following option activated:

“Settings” > (“My device”) > “Accessory” > “Desk home screen display”

1st step:
Download this additional app “iBOLT DockMode”

2nd step:

Please make sure you’ve got “iBOLT Dock’n Drive” installed on your device. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ibolt.carhome)

3rd step:
Run “iBOLT DockMode” by pressing on the icon either in your app drawer or on your home screen (you have to add it manually to your home screen). You will be prompted to select your default dock application. Select “iBOLT Dock’n Drive” and confirm with “always”.


Now you should notice a steering wheel icon in the notification bar and “iBOLT Dock’n Drive” should be running. All functions of “iBOLT Dock’n Drive” including the support for the home button should be now working.

HOW TO END THE VIRTUAL DOCK MODE?

Either pull down the notification bar and select “Car mode enabled – Touch to exit car mode” or again press on the “iBOLT DockMode” icon.


NOTE:

You can set “iBOLT DockMode” on your “iBOLT Dock’n Drive” home screen as a shortcut for easy access. (Select “Set shortcut” > “Applications” > “iBOLT DockMode” in “iBOLT Dock’n Drive”)

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★I don't own an official dock, this is the perfect solution!
2 ★I have the x dock pro. So when i dock my phone into this do i still need to manually open dock and drive?
5 ★Keep up the good work!!!
3 ★Likely to be better
5 ★Best
5 ★Thank you so much for this. I love the ibolt dock and software, but it didn't start up automatically after insertion into the dock. Now with this app, the ibolt home page starts up and goes away when I dock and undock my Note 3. Music pauses too. Saved me from rooting and figuring out a way through Tasker.
2 ★Installed on Galaxy Note 3. All that happens is screen flickers for a second and that's it.
5 ★Replaces the red cross exit mode in the main program, set it in one of the six shortcut on the main panel.
1 ★Doesn't work with Note 3.
1 ★I've been waiting for 30 minutes and it's still saying downloading. I have a Note 5. Don't know what is wrong.
1 ★I'm giving this 1 star because somehow my phone keeps redirecting me to download this app whenever I'm driving. You can go straight to hell.
1 ★Doesn't work on the S 4
