Does the dock amplify ringtones when receiving a call? I'd like to have as a charging station in my room, and be able to hear it throughout the house.

Yes.....and you can talk in your phone and the person through the docking station!

Im sure what other model you refer to but, the charger that plugs into this dock CAN also be used to charge your phone. I have used it many times for that matter. It does not have an audio out function though.

I have never had this problem with mine. I do know that if you turn the sound down to silent on everything you won't have that problem when it's on the dock!

Once you get the music to play you should be able hear calls through the speakers. At least thats how my phone works but im not sure if its different for iphone

No, I don't believe so. My experience is that it only amplifies the ring of the telephone, NOT the voices; however, it is an extremely loud ring, which is what I was looking for.

We have other phones in the home and have the wall phone sound turned off. I just did check it, however, and it does work.Only adjustment I have is the side lever with down arrow for loud. As stated, I turned it all the way opposite loud to turn off.we did not care for the ring sound.

no, it doesn't go into a dock mode. What I like about it is that it works, charges the phone, while simultaneously, charging a spare battery. So what if the phone doesn't go into speakermode for an incoming call. You can still press the speaker button on the phone and talk as you normally would to anybody. For the price, it's right for me. Besides, this will become my 2nd phone as the long awaited Galaxy Note 2 has arrived at Sprint. Hope this helps.

I tried three docks and each one of them had a static noise that was very annoying in certain songs. Now, I don't understand when you say that ipod, connected to the aux, doesn't make any static noise? My sansa player or a laptop doesn't produce any static noise in my earphones or other speakers but it does on this dock. So, it must be the AUX port on this dock that is not functioning properly.

Yep. Charges while you're docked. We use this thing every day and LOVE it. It's really, really, REALLY great. If you're looking for a great speaker to plug your iPhone 5 into, this is the one. Don't even hesitate. You're going to knocked flat by how awesome the sound is from this thing. I'd give it 10 stars out of 5 if I could.

If everything is off and you set the alarm on your device the normal alarm works. I haven't tried it with the docking speaker on.

So far, everything but calls. When connected to the dock cable calls default to speaker phone. I haven't figured out how to send calls through the dock cable

I dont quite get the question. You mean can you have the music played while during the phone call? That would be impossible. My phone says 'unable to play music while calling',dear

ok, so allow me to edit my comments. it does charge the ipod touch 2g but for whatever reason you have to turn the unit on and off every time you connect it. slightly annoying, not a deal breaker. just remember to TURN DOWN the volume before you hit play. The default volume at first power on is obscenely high. i don't get buzz of any kind but my unit is not an iphone. also, the remote under regular (read : everyday) use eats through a battery in about 6 weeks. Luckily, the CR2025 battery that it takes can be found for under 50c a piece on the internet (google it). Overall, I think this is an ideal dock for an office as it does reasonably well with really low volumes which most docks don't do and it's an extremely small footprint.

It doesn't really stay in dock mode for me. If it actually goes into dock mode, and you have a music shortcut on the dock screen (which can be customized) you can play music through the speakers while charging. But if you end up pressing the home key and taking it out of dock mode, it stops playing through the apeakers and the you'll have to undock/redock again to play through the speakers. Its really annoying. If you end up getting this dock and figure out a fix, please let me know!

Yes. If you turn the ringer volume off on the base, a small red light will blink (on the base) when you receive a call, and the handset will ring.

It's not worth it at all. Very distorted sound. But I don't know if it will work with your dock station. I wouldn't buy it

You have to go into your phone settings. System>Accessory>Dock Sound needs to be checked.
