  1. My guess is they were waiting for the 5s and 5c, as well as iOS7. They got completely blindsided by the new connector of the 5, probably didnt want to release an update, and then have it nullified a couple of months later. Hopefully that means something is right around the corner (dare to dream with iRadio support?)
  2. 3 week old x940 BT performs flawlessly when connected to the above listed phone. When connected to my iPhone 5 (via lightning to 30pin adapter) it chronically wants to change its source to iPod. So far I've reset the x940 several times, and rebooted the phone many times as well. Since the other devices work fine, I'm left to assume its either the phone or the dock connector. What should I try next? Worth noting I suppose, I've not changed my "iPhone image" in 4 years or so. Whenever I've gotten a new device I've always restored from a previous backup. Could that be in anyway re
  3. So I finally got my lightning adapter and things are working well except that periodically when play Pandora, it will spontaneously launch the iPod controls (though the Pandora sound keeps going). I cheaped out on the official cable and got a $10 cord on eBay. Any chance this could be the source of issues?
  4. You can get Facebook through the Aha app, don't know about the others.
  5. Now that the dock adapters are out there, and a modicum of order has been restored, I have a couple of x940 questions. 1) How do you guys handle Podcasts? That's what I listen to the most, and on the AppRadio they were easy to get to with their own category, but that doesn't appear to be the case on the 940, any tips? 2) Is there a way to get itunes to NOT always start with whatever song is alphabetically first in my collection? For that matter, is there a way to get "shuffle" always on? Whenever I plug in it has defaulted back to off. Thanks!
  6. I just received this in my email: To our Valued Customers: As the leader in smartphone connectivity across a wide range of our products, Pioneer continues to fully embrace new smartphone platforms and product introductions, as well as the connected lifestyle.

  7. XM has Stern and the NFL. Only notable difference is Sirius offers home and away broadcasts while XM is just home team feed.
  8. I've got one on preorder but have already bailed on the AppRadio. Had an X940BT installed last week and am thrilled that I did. It reminded me of everything I miss from my old D3, and has the added bonus of also being able to do the Apps so once this whole thing is sorted out, the apps I've purchased wont be useless.
  9. If you're using an iPhone, it won't work. Apps via Bluetooth supported on Android and Blackberry only.
  10. Ah, nevermind, Blackberry and Android support only.
  11. Just had a 940 put in to replace an AppRadio. I see in the settings an option to change "app mode" to Bluetooth instead of the default "wired". When I do this, and make sure my iPhone is connected, the buttons for Aha and Pandora are no longer greyed out. Though when I try to launch them, it says "Bluetooth is disconnected". Everything plays fine over the Bluetooth audio option. What am I missing?
  12. A nearby Best Buy has each unit on clearance for the above prices. I'm a current AppRadio user, but am over this life of beta testing. I would however like to continue using some of these apps I've purchased. I've read conflicting things on whether the 930 has "advanced app mode". X series experts (VBlue I'm looking at you) which should I get. Pros/Cons?
  13. I've never done an install on my own before but have done some "maintenance" to my AppRadio and been behind the dash. What am I looking at doing a swap myself? Any existing connections/cables usable?
  14. I just ordered one. It's a Bluetooth receiver that attaches to 30 pin iPhone style docks. So theoretically you can stream audio from your device to the doc without having to plug it in. Might work as a patch until things are sorted out.
  15. Thanks Blue, that's info I was looking for. I guess it's just more wait and see (patience is not my specialty).
  16. Oh, I get that. What I'm after is what exists now (as compared to my AppRadio, which is nothing).
  17. Maybe you guys can help me out. I'm very much considering ditching the AppRadio right now. Partly because of the iPhone 5 cable issue and partly because its been a tenuous relationship from the beginning. As I understand it, the x series (been looking at the 940) has also be impacted by this. My assumption is that "advanced app mode" has been lost as it uses a cable similar to the AppRadio, but that all other functions remaining operational. Does this include the ability to play iPod/iPhone through USB?
  18. I wanted to hang on to my 4 to fill the void, but I know the value will steadily decline as time goes by and I could pass what I could get now. Is the mobile hotspot plan worth the extra $20 a month?
  19. With the iPhone 5 now out, and the lightning to 30 adapter (which at best will likely only support audio) weeks away, what are folks doing? As it stands I've got the cord it came with and no place to use the phone. The bluetooth to 30 seems like a decent option to at least get some audio to docks (appradio included?) but everything is so crippled right now, it really can make things "out of sorts"
  20. I've installed this but AppRadio isn't recognizing it. Ideas?
  21. It would appear the mic on the AppRadio 1 has died. The last couple of calls I've tried to take, the other party doesn't hear me. Are there aftermarket replacement options?
