Does this dock automatically place the phone in car mode when the phone is inserted?

Yes, it does. However, it's sometimes flaky and takes more than one try to get car mode to engage.

No, It will automatically pair when you turn on your device. Yes you can use while charging but it is tricky to setup first time. Then you have to leave it on charge continuously.

It snaps rather firmly into either mode and remains in place until manually changed. So, your answer is: "it stays". BTW, very pleased with the device.

Mine set automatically when we plugged in the phone. We didn't have to do anything.

I don't have a either dock. But there is an opening for both the USB and regular charger the phone comes with, so it can be charged while still in the case. But I don't know where the phone connects while using a "dock" since I don't own one. And when charging the phone in my car I've used the GPS dock that came with the phone and it can sit in that dock and still be charged at the same time. Sorry I couldn't be much more helpful to you.

Yes. However, I place my phone in the "portrait" position (as opposed to landscape) because the chord then falls naturally downward towards the power source.

To the best of my knowledge, it does not. Just a USB port that powers it and allows data transfers (updates). I will carefully double check, however, next time I drive my car.

Yes, just flip down little flap to turn on. I leave it open while I drive. It answers automatically when down. I connect to Genious button to call out.

Yes it will auto connect once you turn your car on as long as you left your Bluetooth on and haven't changed any settings. I don't think there is an auto music feature but it's really easy to turn on via the top button of the device.

Not that I'm aware of. I was under the impression it was manual select to begin with but it's not it automatically goes to the device that's on.

Yes, exactly so. Which means, when you get into the car and turn on the ignition, it automatically makes the bluetooth connection for handsfree (as long as your stereo input is on AUX.)

The moto x fits well into the Griffin dock. However it does not automatically go to car mode. I don't think car mode is available on moto x. I can't find it in play store and it was not loaded on my phone. If you find car mode please follow up on Amazon

The power cable (from the cigarette lighter) plugs into a port on the back of the dock. There is another cable permanently connected to dock that you plug into your phone when it's docked.

If I understand what your questing no it will take it an sync to the speakers in the car. According to the manual it does stream phone calls, but I have never used that function. It will auto connect automatically. Sometimes after charging you do have to re sync, but that is infrequent.

The dock comes supplied with a separate cable that is plugged into the dock itself. The dock then has another, shorter cable (about 2 inches) that is plugged into the phone. This cable allows the phone to go into "car mode". Alternatively you could plug your phone in directly from your own car charger to bypass car mode.

No mine is installed under the center console of my boat and connects just fine with my phone even if it my phone is outside my boat.
