Help! Charging Moto Droid Brought Up Multimedia Dock Screen!

[Butt3rs]

I plugged my phone into the charger like I do every night when I get out of work. Well I went to go take a shower, and come back into my bedroom about 20 minutes later, and the screen that shows when the droid is plugged into the multimedia dock was on my screen. I've never seen this before, nor plugged my phone into one of those. I saw the big clock on my screen and a few buttons on the bottom. Well when i picked up my phone, the image went away and back to black screen. So i unlocked it and it came back to the unlock screen and it doesnt seem to come back. It was laying on top my NDS if that even makes a lick of difference. Is there even a way to bring up that screen again with out that dock? I would love to mess around with it and see what features it has to offer and I may purchase one of theres. So Long story short...is there a button I can use on my moto droid to bring this back up? Thanks in advance.

Looks like where you set your Droid down was the perfect spot where there was a magnet. And, there is a multimedia dock emulator but I don't use it so can't tell you exactly what it's called.

It must've been near a magnet. There's a app at http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-cowbellsoftware-deskdock-pjAx.aspx that will do what Vulcan1600Rider mentioned. Also http://www.androlib.com/android.application.net-geekherd-dockenabler-pBmD.aspx which gives you both Home and Car dock.

we are still talking about the multimedia dock right? because i have the car mount and I know that there's a magnet it there that brings up the car feature wheel thing.

Yeah, both docks use magnets. There's even a Dock Blocker app which prevents it from going into Multimedia Dock mode if you happen to have a holster that uses magnets for closing.
