  1. Been thinking about this. You could achieve the functionality by adding an apple tv and a small wireless router. With the iPhone 5 the AppRadio no longer actually "knows" that the phone is plugged into the radio. It just knows that something is plugged into its HDMI port and that your iPhone is linked to it via bluetooth. If you used an apple tv as your piggyback and then had a very low power wireless router to give a connection to both devices it would actually be perfectly possible to do what you want. Only problems I see is that 1. there will be lag on touch response. 2. You will
  2. Not likely... it is listed in his current bugs with beta 8. You may have been watching an iPhone 4s on iOS 5.
  3. Do you have appradio extensions? That's a current issue with the beta.
  4. Without a jailbreak you still get full mirroring to the car. The only requirement is that you have some form of bypass to make the radio think the car is in park. You won't get touch control on unsupported apps however. For that you have to wait till someone makes an alternative to backgrounder, or finds another way to route the touch controls from the radio to the phone.
  5. Just as a note to counter iGo. Waze also supports offline maps (I know this because I used to have sprint, waze saved my life) and learns your routes. It has gotten me out of traffic several times. I drive 80 miles a day. this thing is a must have. CarMediaPlayer keeps getting more awesome by the day. In fact today they just updated the app to remember where you were in the search menu. Before when lets say you clicked on the wrong song and wanted to go back you would have to start from the very beginning and choose artist, then find the artist, then the track and then hopefully click the
  6. Just updated this morning. Not listed in the features they added is that it finally remembers where you were last when you press the search button. No more starting from the main menu every time! It is something the built in ipod app already did that I very much missed with my 5 and I very much welcome in the app.
  7. The only way you could get a fully featured device without plugging it in would be if you had some new appradio with built in wifi and an apple approved (no one has this) airplay mirroring capability. Then the display and audio would be output via wifi streaming, as well as probably control of the iphone from the radio. However, that's never going to happen. With the new DA-110 and bluetooth streaming you will probably have access to the pandora app without plugging anything in, but that's it.
  8. The beta works in iOS 6.1.2. The only thing it doesn't support are letting you control unsupported apps, due to backgrounder not working in iOS 6.
  9. Support for the video mirroring that the AppRadio needs for its functions was not possible till the 4th generagion devices (iPhone 4/iPod touch forth gen). You should still be able to use the iPod application, which the AppRadio 2 supports any 30 pin iPod for, but other functions are simply not possible.
  10. Yes, what doesn't go through the car speakers at all is Apple Maps which I doubt you are using based on how bad people claim it is in the UK.
  11. You might have downloaded the US firmware? I did the same thing with my appradio once but I'm american and the firmware I got was european. Screwed everything up.
  12. Yes, you just tuck it away. The iPod cable itself becomes useless. No you cannot use the iPod app with your iPhone 5 regardless of how you plug it in. The CD-IH202 is just an HDMI cable and the iPod cable with only the USB part on it. Google does go through the car speakers but at times it can be a little finicky. This is a google problem. They don't handle bluetooth well on the app and they don't give you the option to prevent the iPhone from sending the voice guidance through bluetooth. Don't swap phones. You won't miss the iPod app, carmedia player is a good app. Your iPhone 5 has othe
  13. The DA-01 hardware is not built with controlling apps via bluetooth in mind. The DA-100 was already built to handle it because android phones are controlled exactly the same way. So in short? No. Sorry.
  14. Well the new unit is getting bluetooth streaming. Our machine has parrot bluetooth as well. It just isn't advertised. If we got bluetooth streaming that would be awesome. We won't, but if we did that would be awesome. Also faster pairing time for the iPhone 5 would be very nice.
  15. I hate it too. You just get used to it though.
  16. I was going to say the same thing. Mind you, I never have that problem with my 100 unit. However good poker face on that guy. He did not break character and act as if the radio did anything wrong at all.
  17. You can use the apps Pioneer listed on their website as being iPhone 5 compatible. Now, if you get a parking brake bypass you can view any app you want on the display. Unsupported apps will not support touch control, but they will let you look at them full screen. In the case of your tom tom app. The sound and video feed would go through the display, but you would not be able to control it on the appradio. you would have to control it on your iPhone.
  18. I got the BT1 not the BT1A. Main difference being the BT1A supports both android and iPhone. Mine only supports iPhone.
  19. The Mix function is a feature of the AppRadio 2 that allows the radio to Mix the audio source of the Radio with the Video source of the Phone.
  20. It will play fine. You will not be able to get full touch control, but the appradio can control the basics. iPhone 4/4s- As soon as you plug it into the car it will work fine. Just press play on your phone. iPhone 5- you need to get past the warning screens. Press on the apps button and then just press ok till you see the warning saying not to drive and play video. At this point the audio from the HDMI is being routed to the speakers. Press play on spotify and you're good to go. Android- No Clue. I assume it is the same deal as the iPhone 5 because they use the same interface. I
  21. Is that appradio compatible? ARLiberator lets you run whatever you want, but if that has any chance of jumping ship it needs to be AppRadio compatible on Android first.
  22. I've had mixed results with google maps. Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it ruins my entire car audio system to the point that I have to practically do a full reboot.
  23. I wonder if eventually someone will launch a competitor to dash command with AppRadio support.
  24. Siri won't route audio from the HDMI and google maps for me anyways actually makes the whole car mess up. It starts sending the sound through the bluetooth as a phone call until I force quit the app sometimes.
  25. Mix mode still works fine. And you can still listen to pandora while using other apps. I don't see what the problem is there.
