I have tried and tried and can't get my AVH-8500BHS to change from others to the digital setting. A few folks mentioned that they did it, but weren't sure how they did it. Did anyone figure it out? Would love some help to get that setting to flip over so I can use things as intended.

Hello new to the forums. Here is what I do to switch from digital and others. If your radio is on turn it off. Do this by pressing the home button then selecting the off button. Then disconnect your iPhone from the radio. On the iPhone turn Bluetooth off. On the radio press the home button, then settings. You should now be able to select between others and digital iPhone. Hope this helps.

I had the same problem as all you guys (changing from "Others" to "Digital AV (iPhone)", but this has worked every single time (you have to redo this every time you pull the power from the unit.
1.) Make sure the parking brake signal is getting what it needs (via the real parking brake or the Microbypass)
2.) Turn off all sources
3.) Turn off bluetooth on your devices
4.) Unplug (from the BACK of the unit) the HDMI cable and the 2 USB cables
5.) While it is on, you should be able to make the change to "Digital AV (iPhone)" at that point.
I know it is retarded that you need to pull the cables from the BACK of the unit to get things to work... I'm not sure if it is my cheap HDMI/USB cables or what but regardless, this has worked for me every time.
