Does not switch to desktop dock mode #9

Open markmiksis opened 12 years ago

markmiksis commented 12 years ago

When placed in the HTC desktop dock, the phone does not identify the dock and switch to dock mode.

Afaik this is done with a specific apk that is packaged with HTCs release. Check dock settings to see if the phone is actually recognizing the dock.

While placed in the dock, the phone charges but "Menu->Settings->Dock" reports "Phone not docked".

while plugged into the dock, if you can get me the output of this: adb shell cat /sys/class/switch/dock/state adb shell cat /sys/class/switch/dock/status

markmiksis commented 12 years ago
# cat /sys/class/switch/dock/state
0
# cat /sys/class/switch/dock/status
offline

This is also what the output is when not in the dock. It's possible I have a defective dock, but I doubt it. Other users have also reported dock mode not working in CM7.

Let me know any other info I can provide.

Thats what I was afraid of. We have 2 possible issues here.

  1. The Kernel source for the dock changed, but they did not provide the new source -or-
  2. The config was modified for the new dock. I will poke around on this one.
