  1. Glad I could help. Just make sure to follow the instructions when you get it.
  2. Just downloaded it. I will play with it on the commute home.
  3. and again don't have your iPhone plugged in at all.
  4. No don't turn it off all the way. Press the speaker on the second page. That turns off the amp but lets you go into settings. Once you do that you will be able to switch other to iPhone AV
  5. Yep. I put it in my car 6 months ago and haven't touched it or thought about it since. Only exception to this are the handful of times I put it in a different car to get info from them, and when I switched to my 5 from my 4s. Although with the switch I didn't have to touch it, I just had to re-pair it.
  6. I use dashcommand and have no issues. Everything works flawlessly when I use my BT1. Bluetooth is very much able to connect to multiple devices at once. This is perfectly within its range of capability.
  7. I don't have an android phone but I think you need to calibrate it. Sadly this forum is mostly iPhone at the moment. I know there is a more android centric AppRadio forum. When I have time I will try to find it for you. I think they can help more than we can.
  8. Mine lives in my car nonstop. I have the GoPoint BT1. Autoconnects right away, doesn't interfere with the AppRadio bluetooth, turns off the second the car does and turns right back on when you turn the car back on. It was worth every penny. I've had it in the car for a good few months now with zero issues.
  9. First off calm down. I know the changes are annoying at first, and yes in some ways you are losing some capability with the change. Remember it is still far better than having to replace you're entire radio because you got a new phone. Calm yet? Hope so. Pandora doesn't play over bluetooth, it's controlled via bluetooth. All audio is routed from the HDMI and is actually better quality than the analog audio you were sending before. So there is your first improvement. Your phone thinks it's an Android phone because you have the radio set to Other mode. disconnect your iPhone, turn o
  10. Yeah that gives you nothing that using the cable that already comes with the radio and a cheap HDMI cable wouldn't have solved. For the record, HDMI cables are digital cables and aren't affected by interference. Each pin caries a binary code and all the radio needs is the pattern for a clean signal. It is like turning lights on and off. Regardless of how shitty the light is, if you can tell whether or not the light is on, you can read a pattern of it turning on and off. As long as what is receiving the signal receives the pattern, you will get a perfectly clean output regardless of how much in
  11. I have a bluetooth one that works more than fine. I don't remember off the top of my head which I got but my bluetooth OBD-II works great with my iphone.
  12. I don't use it with an android phone, but I will try my best to answer your questions. 1. No. Audio is handled by the HDMI. 2. I think you will be fine but I'm not sure exactly what the problem is because again, I don't use android. 3. You would need to use ARLiberator to get google maps support as far as touch, but your car would display google maps onscreen regardless. You just would not be able to control it with your radio without ARLiberator. 4. Yes. This is a fully supported feature. 5. Auto pairs but if you press the X on the top right corner it sends the audio straight to th
  13. Nope. That's more or less a japan thing. My dad's infiniti is the same way. It doesn't bother me. It's just one of the motions I go through when I turn on the car. Don't even think about it these days.
  14. Pioneer didn't make this an option. When the AppRadio is in 5 mode the iPod app is completely disabled. I just tried this myself. It's infuriating for two reasons 1. The AppRadio actually fully supports this. Android phones are controlled exactly the same way as the 5, and AppRadio fully supports (it is actually one of the features) letting you run an Android phone and an iPod at the same time. However the iPhone 5 is locked out of this feature. 2. CarMediaPlayer sucks!!!! Oh my god the built in iPod app on the AppRadio 2 is so much more powerful! The only thing the CarMediaPlayer has
  15. The da100 is miles better, however I feel ya about your da-02. I loved my da01 but there were some soft spots. As far as your requests. 1. The AppRadio is not a very advanced radio. It makes you think it is, but it isn't. Whenever you switch from app mode to radio mode or vice versa you are literally changing sources. You will notice that no sound comes from the iphone when the radio is in radio mode. That's because the audio is not routing from the phone at all at this point. That is how the hardware of that device works. It doesn't support audio mixing. 2. Again, best way to think
  16. Yep I noticed that. I never used the app but for people that do, I'm glad they got their app back.
  17. I use google maps. I have a parking brake bypass, and just tell Siri "navigate to X via transit" it pulls up my choice of maps apps, I choose google, and boom I'm on my way. Don't need to touch my nav to use it.
  18. Felt that with the range of confusion and misinformation about this topic one of these would be handy. Let me know if I get anything wrong and what I'm missing and I will add and change this to reflect it. Q: What do I need to get started? A: You will need an Appradio 2 running version 8.30 of their software, an iPhone 5, a lightning AV adaptor, an hdmi cable, and a lightning cable. Q: why can't I just use a lightning to 30 pin connector to use my appradio 2? A: the lightning to 30 pin connector does not provide a video output necessary for appradio apps to work. It only provides USB data, p
  19. You have a ground loop. Your Alpine may be causing it. Do some research to see if other users of the KTP445U have had similar issues.
  20. Haha the glossiness never bothered me but yeah, a matte screen protector will fix that. Also yeah, about the capacitive, it is designed to be one big iPhone screen. You need capacitive to do multitouch. I would suggest some capacitive friendly gloves. They would also made your day to day phone usage more pleasant since they will work with your iphone as well. I can't wait to see the setup once it's finished!
  21. PS I would love to see a walkthrough of your setup when you are done putting it back together. I'm sure if it looks anything like the above picture it will be quite the treat to see.
