  1. A you using Carplay / Wireless Carplay ? I've noticed since CP was released, it has done that to to my Avics from time2time
  2. I've always thought the screen on the 8XXX were all the same..... Fast forward. Unless this is a software update from Waze, but pinch to zoom on waze via Carplay/8500 works whereas for the longest time, it has never worked for my on my former 8200.
  3. I don't think this has been covered in the maps discussion or it has. Not that I ever use stock navi - waze for me. I'm well aware of the 45 days. I just did a sync on a fresh install and connect to toolbox. Toolbox downloads the 2018Q4 and for the purchase option, it offers the 2019Q2. I thought one had 45 days for a *free* update to the latest one that was available (on this case 2019 Q2) since they are offering it as a upgrade fee. Am I amiss on the map update policy ?
  4. On Z8500, with source off, the traditional lower left bypass hack does not seem to respond at all
  5. Not sure if this is due to difference in software of platforms, as I believe the resolution on the screens was the same on the 8200 vs 8500. However, the screen appears to be more contrastier and more *sharper*, even though it's the same resolution. Am I having a placebo effect cause it's a new HU ?
  6. I'm not 100% sure but I think if one has wireless carplay enabled, and if you connect to USB 1, carplay WILL continue to run over wireless unless you turn off wireless on the phone and connect to USB 1. Based on my caveman thinking...
  7. What happens when a device is enabled already via Wireless Carplay and get's plugged into USB 1. Does USB becom just a - charging cable OR does Carplay default over to WIRED
  8. new nex coming in . Link in OP dead ?
  9. I'm sure someone has the easy answer The stock navi on the Nex I've never used.....community mapping on Waze is so much more accurate... Is it just resolution native or ~what~, but why does the stock navi mapping displays look so much better than the maps when Looking at either Waze or even Apple Maps when using Carplay ? No android phone in the family so I have no clue how that looks with AA on the Nex series
  10. Nice. So the wiring is pure PNP, just short or 2 RCA's.....onto the new harness. BTW, I ended up calling Pioneer support on the wireless carplay-gps inquiry. Threads in this forum seem to infer than with wireless carplay, it uses the OE Navi GPS and not the phone/device GPS. Pioneer says that is incorrect and wireless carplay with *working gps* works just fine, even with no gps antenna on the HU. As a example, on their other non navi units with wireless carplay, they state that navi works via Wireless Carplay and those units don't even have GPS
  11. Currently on a Z8200. Unit's been crashing a bit so I've decided to just swap out the unit to the 8500. In dong some light reading - is the harness exactly the same - straight PNP - Re the PNP questions. Is the GPS antenna the same or different on the 8500. In reading recent threads, it looks like if one was to use wireless carplay, it uses the GPS antenna on the nav ? Is there anything (extra/different) on the Z8500 GPS antenna than as of former years. Granted I've never used the factory nav at all, as waze is far superior. This might end up not being a straight PNP swap then,
