Car dock with audio - Galaxy Note II Accessories

Hello there.
I'm getting a n7105 and I'm searching for a car dock able to take out audio for USB port and send it to a jack in order to connect it to the car hifi.
Does this exist for Note 2?
Thanks and best regards

The iBolt xprodock finally comes with the cable you're talking about.

Thank you so much for information.
Do you know if our can route calls through jack, too?

I'm not sure, I don't have the dock myself.
You can ask in the thread about the dock though, a few people have received their cables and should be able to answer your questions.

I have the dock with cable the audio works

You can use the iBOLT cable which will do audio out with every 4.1.x or 4.2.x ROM/kernel available or you can get a cheap "Chinese" eBay cable which will work on 4.1.x with Perseus, Trinity, or Devil kernels. Maybe more support old school car mode, but these 3 do for sure and stock does not.

car holder possible issue.

jsut been playing with my play, and suddenly rememberd, the battery charging socket is on the side of the phone, not top or bottom, like the other phones, i have used so far, which i understand, because of its gaming feature, however, i think this will cause issues, with many car holders, whats your experience on this, cause all only have my car monday, and i cant help, but worry, about the possibility, of having to change this. Anyone seen a decently priced car holder?, in case, i might have to change mine.
You could use the official SE DK300 docking station, some ductape and a 12V car supply to usb adapter
DroidX's charge port is on the left side. I find that to be a great place considering the car dock is specific to the X. Maybe wait for a device specific dock?

Docks

Who here has purchased a Vehicle or Desk (or any other dock you found for your Atrix HD), and what are your opinions about that docks?
I own both the Vehicle and Desk docks and i don't like how the audio cable isn't built into the vehicle dock like it is in the desk dock. otherwise i like both of the docks.
a note on the vehicle dock: you need to find the right sized case to fit properly in the dock without the inside part. I bought the Incipio Feather Case, and it was too small and the phone looked like it had no support inside the car dock so i had to add the inside piece back in and remove the case from the phone every time i use my car.
My phone will not fit the desk dock without removing the case. But the desk dock doesn't do anything I care about; it didn't even come with the HDMI cable. It's nothing more than an oversized kickstand....but it was free
The car dock was also free. I like that the vehicle dock works better with my case because the plug part slides independant of the frame. I don't like that there's no option to keep it from auto launching vehicle mode. The reason they do not have it automatically plugging into your audio jack is because if you have bluetooth on your radio (and I do) it would look cheap to have a cable hanging all the time.

Have you tried disabling car mode app? That should keep it from launching.
Go to settings> apps>all> find vehicle mode, select it, then disable.

I am it came with a 3.5mm cable, but it doesnt have a built in plug for it. The charger cable can also be disconnected, and they had fine in older car docks as well as the desk dock
The RAZR/RAZR MAXX docks work as well. One of the users over at AtrixForums,com has successfully used the RAZR Desk Dock (89527N) with the Atrix HD. It's essentially the same as the one they are selling for the AHD, but it can be found for cheaper (not sure if the insert might be different). I am using the RAZR Dock Station (89526N) with the AHD. in addition to the HDMI and audio ports, it also has 3 USB ports and includes the HDMI cable. The USB ports function perfectly with the AHD.

I have a question for anyone who has the car dock for the AHD (whether you got it free from AT&T or Costco, or purchased it retail). Did it come with a charging/audio cable? I got mine in the mail today from the Costco rebate thing (mailed the rebate form 2 weeks ago today before Thanksgiving) and it had the dock assembly and the mounting arm/suction cup... No cables. I tried the charging/audio cable from my Atrix 4G car dock and it works perfectly (including audio), but I'm wondering if the cable was supposed to be included or perhaps its only included if you buy retail.

Note that the USB cable is not the same as the one that comes with the Atrix 4G dock p/n SKN6394A, which also has an audio connector at the end

It is p/n SKN6428A, which is just a micro USB to USB cable.

So, you essentially got just a charging cable which plugs into the dock and also an auxiliary cable which you plug from the headphone jack to your car?
$20 for that cable? Ouch.

How about yours? Does the USB cable carry both power and audio like the 4G one did?
My 4G cable works fine with this dock, even though the Atrix HD is not listed as compatible on that other cable. If Motorola is just including plain cables, perhaps Costco is counting the bonus charger and cables they gave me as the cables I'm supposed to use with the dock. Costco didn't include an aux cable, though.

Well, I kept the 4G cable. Definitely don't wanna be plugging in an audio cable. Can also confirm the 4G cable works fine. It's actually funny, if I also plug the headphone the sound stops coming from the dock and comes from the headphone output.

Aha, so you GOT both USB and auxiliary cables, but you're using the 4G cable like I am.

Good to know. I haven't tried a USB mouse or keyboard, but I suspected they would work as well.

MHL to Analog Audio/VGA

So I found this on amazon, and though I don't need the VGA. I'm actually thinking of a car audio solution and using this as a single cable for charging and audio. Has anyone tried them? Instead of waiting for an official dock which I assume is essentially doing the same thing.
http://www.amazon.com/Micro-Audio-Adapter-Output-Samsung/dp/B009NPYLXA
Would like to know if this adapter can drive audio and video from the N7 micro-USB port.
The Nexus 7 doesn't support mhl. This won't work.
I actually bought a MHL-HDMI this afternoon to give it a shot. Turned out Google Nexus 7 doesn't support MHL. Lmao for not searching before buying. Got it returned right away. Hahaha

Anyone know where I can get a aux-out through microUSB cable that I can use for my car.

Analog audio out is not supported via USB; digital only. Might I suggest a bluetooth audio bridge instead?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using XDA Premium HD app
Just use your phone as a storagedevice with mp3 files on it
Best I have seen is the bluetooth audio also. I am waiting on purchasing a new headunit to see if they are going to provide better support for android in the future.
It's not a cable, but it's definitely possible in some form or another: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/USB-Sync-...876934?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2c69b2a746

Really???. The original Note had a car dock with this feature and the New Samsung Desktop Smart Dock even supports it. I suppose it might require more than just a cable but the fact that they can do it in a desktop dock should mean that it is at least possible.
It is highly likely that the desktop dock has a DAC. not 100% sure though.

Why is it so unlikely (given that the Note 1 had it)?
I also had a car dock (official) for my galaxy s2 which did micro usb audio output.
this video shows the use of various USB devices on the Note, and shows automatic switching between speaker/headphone and usb audio - skip forward to 14m.

Yes this is what I want, maybe with a slightly smaller box and integrated into the car mount would be nice.
If you Google the following terms you'll find the cable you are looking for:
Motorola USB audio cable
It's the first link sold by Motorola. That should work for your needs.

but apparently it won't work with the note 2, different resistors or something? not 100% why not
Found this which I'm unsure if it would fit your needs or not. I read somewhere in the note 2 threads that it worked on our devices.

I acually have this already and it only works with Motorola phones with a compatible car dock. It will neither charge nor provide audio pass through on the note. Don't buy this for your Note 2 it will not work.

Title says not suitable for Note 2. That makes me a little nervous, although I can't really see why that would be the case if it works on the GS3. If anyone can clarify on this that would be great.

This is gorgeous but at $90 it's a bit steep. Also it looks like it requires charging. Not ideal if I'm just trying to use it for audio pass through to my car's head unit.
Sigh... I guess I'll just have to wait for someone to make an active cardock with this feature for the Note2. Back to searching.
question , car dock increase audio out volume ? more than audio jack 3.5mm ?
as i've read somewhere in forum there policy for sound's volume atm on note 2 and iphone5
just for 3.5mm or micro-usb too ?
I have not tested this... but, I think, if all three of these components are combined, analog from the usb is possible.
USB Audio adapter (after searching, this appears to be compatible with the Note II)

If you try this... Please post your results.
When I had my S3, I used the iBolt car dock, which came with a nice 9 foot cable. MicroUSB on one end, USB and 3.5mm audio jack on the other. This is the only cable I have found that does this. Kept the cable once I moved to the Note 2, and it still works.

I have this and it will charge your phone while using hdmi out, with mouse and keyboard, and an external usb hdd connected. While it is not a cable like you were asking about it will do what you want and you can look around and find many different prices from $25-$75.
