kennedd Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Hello, I just installed my z-1 (Sept 06) in a 07 avalanche using the wire bypass I have Ipod, xm, Sirius and bluetooth, everything works fine except I cant dial out with the HU unit. I can use the phone to dial and the bluetooth will pickup the call but if I try to dial from the address book or any of the poi nav screens it just jumps to the map. I am using a Treo 650 cingular. Any ideas or is this normal? And by the way I could not have installed this monster myself without all the information on the site thanks to all of you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alexanderjba Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 You stated that everything else worked, so the BYPASS DID work? The guys that are installing mine said that the bypass wouldn't work with Sept. '06 models (but they could just be telling me that)... So, does anyone know if in the last month or so, if Pioneer has somehow changed the design or wiring of the unit to disable the bypass noted in the stickies? I have yet to try the bypass myself, but give me 24 hrs and I'll let you know how it works... Didn't mean to hijack the thread, but, then again, I kinda did... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ducatiboy Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 September 06 units are absolutely able to be bypassed, you use the 07/06 bypass on this page: http://www.sminntech.com/z1flash.html As for your Treo, I don't know about that, but it sounds like it's not a bypass thing but a treo compatibility thing. I don't know how to fix that. Smart phones are notoriously poor for connecting to bluetooth devices like the Z1. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Because you certainly saved the day here for me... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kennedd Posted November 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 You are correct the Bypass is not the problem. I have tested the system with a Razr and it works as well as everyone elses. It is a shame that the echo problem is not resolved. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vijaja Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 I have a September 06 model. No problems with the bypass Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Any ideas or is this normal? I am having the exact same problem. My phone is a Nokia N93 and I can't dial out using the Z1. Is anyone using this type of phone and not encountering this problem?
