  1. I had a z110bt upgraded to a z130bt (pretty close to a z140bh and now have a z150bh. I prefer the 150. Other than being able to control Pandora and aha through Bluetooth without an adapter with the 140, I think everything else is better on the 150. But if money is a concern you can get the 140 for <$700 and a 150 is <$900.

  2. My question is, do you even need the Pioneer adapter?  Couldn't you run a short HDMI cable to the (for me, Samsung MHL [Note 2]) and that will work? 

     

    Can you run the old iPod adaptor (IU230V I think it is) and use an Ipod Classic to run video and audio?

     

    Other question is- to run the MHL, you do not need the USB connector?  I know for my MHL cable I needed the HDMI and USB power to connect to the TV.  I am hoping not so I can run both iPod and Android.

    I don't know if the old adapter will work but I do know that an iPod classic and an Android phone can be hooked up at the same time. I did notice though, that if the z150bh is started initially with an iPod connected you can not select Android in the App Mode settings. If this happens, the z150bh must be reset without the iPod connected and the Android phone set up in App Mode BEFORE connecting an iPod.

    Also the usb connector for Android is built into the MHL adapter and is for charging and doesn't use the same as the iPod/iPhone adapter. There is also a separate usb for charging on the rear of the z150bh.

  3. I had the same problem. I stuck a striped wire into the slot, far enough to contact the pin of the radio and then crazy glued it in place. I haven't had a problem in the two months since I installed it.

  4. I had a cheap $20 eBay camera(XO Vision)  hooked up to my Z1 for 3 years before replacing it. It worked fine except when it was sunny out, the brightness would wash out the image. It was actually better at night with the IR LEDS.

    When I replaced my Z1 with a Z110, I upgraded to a Boyo VTL300 and it is great in all lighting conditions.

  5. To answer my own question; yes, both CAN be hooked up at the same time. I couldn't get my phone(Android) to work at first,

    I had my iPod hooked up when I tried to initially set up App mode (Android grayed out). I had to reset the Z150bh and set it up without my iPod connected.

    After that, I can use my Android phone in App mode and my iPod for music and videos.

     

    Pioneer tech support (email) said it wouldn't work.

  6. I have had my iPod connected with the cable and my droid razr phone connected by Bluetooth at the same time on my z120 running z140 software but I don't think you can connect two devices by using a splitter on the cable

    I was referring to the Z150, it has separate cables for an ipod and an android phone. I just don't know if they can be attached and used at the same time. Thanks.
