    AVICSync app

    Has anyone figured out how to update the maps to at least match what's on your Head Unit?
  2. The 4200 hasn't been patched yet, only the x000 with FW 1.07, 1.08 and 1.11 and the x100 with FW 1.05
  3. This issue occurs if you have the AVICSYNC (connected features) turned on in Navigation Mode and don't have something that the USB Accessory (the head unit) can recognize as a launchable app. You can resolve it by redownloading AVICSYNC or whichever app launched from start when connected to your head unit. Also, if you would rather use Android Auto or CarPlay, what you will need to do is go into Navigation Mode ("MAP" button) and in that bottom bar where it shows the audio source playing, move to the car icon (which should have a green/glowing set of arrows, not unlike the AVICSYNC logo) a
  4. I just want to confirm that this method worked for me. I am using an 8100NEX and I successfully managed to update my maps, 3D buildings, and POI to the latest HERE versions (2015 Q3) A later reply (I believe it is #378) also broke down which replies in the thread are most needed. Here is a recap based on my experience: 1. Download and extract the necessary flash/update script for your AVIC head unit (reply #138), and copy all necessary files to a USB flash drive (recommended 16GB or more, so that you can backup everything). Boot your head unit with the updated USB flash drive in U
  5. Ah, how I miss those New York shields...
  6. Regarding CarPlay: All you should need is a Lightning Cable and a compatible iPhone. You have to go into Smartphone Settings (touch the "Gear" icon from the main menu to find it). Select USB1 and CarPlay as your connection type. Then simply connect your iPhone to USB1 (it has to be USB1) and enjoy CarPlay. As for AppRadio, as others have mentioned, you will need to have the Lightning/AV cable and use HDMI. CarPlay is a much superior option if you are an iPhone user.
  7. I updated it, and I've seen some strange behavior with regards to Android Auto. Android Auto itself runs as expected (though I'm not too fond of some of the app updates). However if I play music through Android Auto (for example, through Google Play Music), and then go back to the main menu to select another USB source (for example, an iPod), USB1 will remain at "Ready" until I unplug the phone from USB2, and then it will start playing. I can then get back into Android Auto by replugging the phone into USB2. I don't think that's good. I wonder if I can go back to 1.03.
  8. Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900V, Verizon Wireless).
  9. Confirmed that sideloading HTC Car + Automate is a way to get an Android Auto-like interface to your car on a 4000/8000NEX. It works on my 8100NEX. However, this doesn't output any audio. Is there a specific version of HTC Car I should be using? Note: WAZE also works through HTC Car if you use it there.
  10. Though this thread is about the 4100, the issue is being discussed here: http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/81529-avh-4100nex-wipod-via-usb-staticaudio-issues/ I have the issue, occasionally.
  11. This makes no sense. I occasionally have the same issue on my 8100NEX. Sometimes unplugging and restarting the iPod helps. I refuse to believe this to be an issue with the 30pin adapter for iPod; tons of OEM and aftermarket iPod-ready head units that input via USB do not have these issues, some of which actually made by Pioneer.
  12. The Note 4 is compatible with APPRADIO. If you are considering the 2015 NEX models 4100, 7100, and 8100, you will also have access to Android Auto. All you need for APPRADIO is MHL support. Which means the Galaxy S6 may not be a good choice. I think the G4 is also compatible.
  13. The Verizon S5 issue has been corrected recently. I have been using AA since around May 31 with no issues.
  14. They recommended sending it in for service. But with a 3 week turnaround time, plus no guarantee that warranty would be honored, I'm half wondering if I should just seek a replacement from Amazon.
