You would need the bypass that you mentioned in my post, but yes. Any HDMI video source will pass through once you have the bypass installed. Also if you want an HD radio equivalent download the iheart auto app. It will put iheart radio in your car and you can listen to any station you want in higher fidelity than regular radio.

You're not looking for either. You're looking for a parrot asteroid smart.

Check out appradio extensions. You'll be able to have full control of your phone from the appradio using it.

Thanks. This will also work on the iPhone 3GS if you have that. Obviously it also works on any device that is already natively Appradio compatible, but I did not want to spend any more money. I had this lying around and thought "why not?"

Update 2: For those that hate reading, here is a video of the setup explaining what it does when and how it works. Enjoy. quicky recap. I have an appradio 2 I am running this off of a 3rd Generation iPod touch. This setup should be compatible with any device that is AppRadio capable, including the original appradio. If you have an Android phone you can use this setup to increase your apps with appradio. An old iPod touch goes for pennies on ebay.

Update: I have tested further. The original setup for my 5 remains intact. While in this setup appradio apps cannot function from my 5, a quick look at the appradio site will show you that the list of compatible apps is quite a bit smaller for iPhone 5 than 4/4s or in this case iPod. However because now whenever I connect my phone the AppRadio thinks it's connected to an android device, using my fake parking brake, I still can achieve full mirroring of my display without touch control. So as such whenever I feel like listening to music from an unsupported app like Rdio or using google maps I s

So I have an old 3rd gen iPod touch. I jailbroke it today. Installed activator and resupported to enable video out over component. I set my appradio to use the 30 pin connectors again and I tethered it to my phone. Here are my findings. If you tell activator to lock the ipod and turn on airplane mode when the power cuts out it can stay on for over a week without power. Tell activator to open the appradio app and unlock the device when power is connected and you instantly bypass all but the first warning screen. sadly activator cannot tell the ipod to connect to my phone via blue

The affair with cars and iPhones is very simple. At most there are currently two standards to build to with iPhones. 30 pin and lightning. VS with Android each manufacturer built in a different system for each phone, and Google didn't even support audio over USB natively till I believe last year. To support android all the car manufacturers have put stereo bluetooth in their cars but as far as a connectivity system, iOS had this on lock for good reason for quite some time.

So the iPhone 5 now shoes metadata for what song you're playing when you double press the home button?

Unjailbroken the iPhone 3GS does not have the capabilities to be an appradio compatible product. The 3GS cannot send video out of its port in the way required to do appradio. Now if you jailbreak it there are tweaks to enable this feature, but you have to jailbreak.

With the Appradio 3 Siri and google voice/google now commands can be done via the heady it by pressing and holding the home button. This includes commands requesting music. I have an Appradio 2 that I use with google maps. You need a bypass to display on screen, and non jail broken you cannot control the map from the head unit. However once you enter your destination and turn the phone sideways, the map displays full screen and looks absolutely gorgeous. All voice prompts go through the lightning port without a problem. If you want to control google maps you will need to jailbreak your ph

pioneer just updated their android compatibility list.

They probably are nearly the same hardware underneath as far as their back-end horsepower. However, that doesn't actually matter for the appradio experience. 100% of that is done from the phone. Your radio only shows the video feed and sends the touch inputs to the phone. Both will perform identically based on whatever hardware you're using for the appradio experience.

We have to remember that in this forum we are living in a bubble. The majority of us are buying pure appradio products. We either have the AppRadio 1,2 or 3. However currently Pioneer has dozens of appradio compatible products, and recently launched a whole slew of updates to any radio that could handle it to upgrade its firmware to support the iPhone 5. They aren't even done with that yet, because the update broke pandora for many of these radios. Pioneer has promised on their facebook page to make repairing that issue a top priority. I guarantee you that we will not see any update to appradi

The question is do you want the extra features and expandability of the X8500 or are you most interested in the appradio experience? The X8500 and the appradio 3 (assuming you're getting the 210) both have DVD players, both have stereo bluetooth, both have touch screens, although the X8500 might not be capacitive. I did a google search and didn't find an answer. Both are fully appradio compatible with all compatible phones, also neither come with any cables, both are going to act the same in appradio apps, but the appradio 3 is 150 dollars cheaper. Now, the X8500 does have an SD card

Yes. It is normal. Sorry man, this forum doesn't have a lot of energy these days.

Poor crutchfield. Every time I talk to their customer support they tell me that they have plenty in stock and that they honestly don't know what to do with them. They have sent me replacements for both my appradio 1 and 2 when I had problems without even caring because they just had warehouses full of them.

Lol I will use whichever car radio manufacturer provides me with this feature with their radio.

If the APIs are in the new SDK to support an Apple approved car mode then yes we will have apps in our car the apple way. If this is the case pioneer and the rest of them better pray that apple is kind and allows them to upgrade their headunits, because appradio and all of its competitors that use iPhones died today. Good luck getting a single new app when there is a first party way to do it that is far more robust in its offering and install base.

Pioneer has a chance. They do currently support Siri Eyes free on the AppRadio 3. I believe Apple recognizes that people don't buy new cars just to use new iPhone features (except those with more money than sense) and with that I know they will work with the aftermarket. As far as apps it remains to be seen if apple supports any third party apps at all with this car feature. Currently it looks very iOS 1with only apple supported features built in. Just like Siri before it. Mind you the interface is gorgeous so I wouldn't care if that was how it ended up.

This should be what you need. http://growtallahassee.com/wp-content/plugins/akismet/iphone-30-pin-connector-pinout-i0.jpg

yeah same here. It comes in as a phone call, but siri works fine. Fantastic actually imo.

Yes, that is a good first plan. Second thing. To deactivate the screensaver entirely and hopefully prevent that, follow this video's guidance. Hopefully that helps. Sorry about your radio. Also don't let one person mar an overall experience. One person a trend does not make. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/AppRadio/How+do+I+set+the+screensaver+on+AppRadio

if you are having real reset issues just pull the power to the whole car. The Pioneer has no backup battery. It uses the car battery for that. Unplug the car battery and BAM, reset.

lol that would be funny. No I'm just going to make a wooden box and buy some cheap components that are less garbage than the ones I used to test it. Thanks for the tip.
