multimedia station

[jerryaycock]

Got multimedia station yesterday..
with short battery life, hoped it would help me keep it charged.
After 1 minute the display go's off..
Called Motorola, the answer was each time you dock, change screen timeout.
This is crazy !!! The program should pick this up and change it !!!

Wow, that's really stupid and worthless. Hope they get this fixed.

Wow you just convinced me to not buy the dock (yet anyway) lol

Maybe I'll half-ass a homemade one until they fix that then I'll get the pretty one.

Got a reply from another post..
Fix was easy, can't believe Motorola tech support didn't know !!

THANKS TO iraparks

Settings/Applications/Development/Stay awake
Keeps your screen up while charging

Go to setting. applications. development. check stay awake (screen will never sleep while charging). It should stay on then. Mine is always on. however the screen does dim when multimedia staion is connected via USB. It does not dim when plugged into the wall. I have not figured that one out.

Sorry I started to reply and got a call here at work. After I posted I see you already got the answer.

Does your screen dim if connected to PC and stay bright when connected to the wall plug?

Thank you, I was not going to get the dock until this issues was fixed.

I have no issue with my dock at all.. stays light when docked.
I put it in the dock, put it to silent, put my sleep music and the alarm wakes me in the morning...

I returned my Dock yesterday as I feel it more important to have a strong protective case than a dock.

What case did you get? I bought I hard case plastic case from the Verizon Store on 11/6 which seemed to be a good case, but I did not like it for two reasons.

1) Would not fit into the media dock.
2) It interferred with the ease of getting ot the physical keyboard. it locked arond the bottom of the phone and the top of the sreens. the small tabs that held the case on were enough to make the slide action to get to the keyboard stick. Operation was not smooth. I like this action much better without the case.

If anybody knows of a better case please reply.
