VBLUE42 Posted July 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 For some strange reason, Apple didnt enable video output through the 30-pin connector. Even the video home docks don't work. No idea why they would do something that boneheaded - why have video with no way to play it back outside the iPhone? Because then the phone would compete with ipod sales. I doubt sales of ipods would be affected. It's a difference of at least $400 between them. If you are buying an iPhone, even if the compatibility issues were fixed, you wouldn't likely be buying it for the iPod feature. There's just not that much storage on the iPhone to eliminate having at least a secondary and backup iPod at this point. Not if you have a decent music collection. I wasn't referring to the current line of ipods. The new ipod will be announced probably by christmas and it will be an advanced ipod added to the line of current ipods. It will probably come in at a price point of about 450.00 dollars and most likely have full BT audio control and video display options that the iphone purposely lacks for this reason.

Tacomarunner Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 I never turm the BT off on the iPhone turn the radio on and bam connected to recieve calls, freakin sweet! Just pick ur serious six(play on tmobiles fav 5) and use the phone to dial others. I like the way i can have the iPhone playing music one minute then taking phone calls the next, then bam back to the music! Russell Quote Link to post Share on other sites
neoben Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Howdy... I have the iPhone and the AVIC-D3... It pairs fine and connects well with the 'direct' connect feature, but how do I get it to autoconnect without going through the 'direct' menu? It seems like others can get this to work. Can you please enlighten? Thanks.. Best, Ben --------------------------------------------------------- neo-fight.tv - {The Weekly Technology Podcast} Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted July 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Register the phone to the D3. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
neoben Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Howdy... If you mean 'register' it from the AVIC end, I've already done that. That's how I can use the direct connect feature. It's still not autoconnecting. Any ideas? Best, Ben Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chazmink Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Have you turned autoconnect on in the D3 menu? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
neoben Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 I have, yes. Previously, this worked with my MOTO Q, but I can't get it to autoconnect wiht the iPhone.. Any thoughts? Best, Ben Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chazmink Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Ben, Mine works perfectly with my D3 and BTB200. It sounds like you did everthing I did. You don't have a BTB100 by any chance? They are not quite as agile. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
neoben Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 I'm sure it's the 200. I'll double check.. Best, Ben --------------------------------------------------------- neo-fight.tv - {The Weekly Technology Podcast} Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brdnboy Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 So. I was in amazement yesterday when i saw a 2007 Mercedes S550 with its fancy navigation bluetooth nonsense pull my contact info right from my iPhone. Just connected the iPhone over bluetooth put in the pass-code. On the mercedes you push "phone address book". It says reading device and 5 seconds later BOOM, its all there. Why cant any of the AVIC's do this please tell. The iPhone doesn't have OPP so how is this possible? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sometech Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 Is there a way to load address book with the cd ? I am wondering the same thing... in the manual they talk about loading the address book from another pioneer. I have scanned the web for a bit and found nothing yet... anyone know the format the pioneer is looking for as it can't be that hard to export my outlook into a .csv file or something and have the d3 upload it.

VBLUE42 Posted October 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 It has been tried several times including by myself and it doesn't work. It wont be possible to upload your address book until Apple includes OBJECT PUSH PROFILE or Pio updates the BTB200 to include OBJECT PULL PROFILE. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
byronchurch Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 has any one had success with bluetooth audio sometimes I'll get my iPhones clicks on the D3 but no blue tooth music ...How bout video anyone had luck with video from iPhone ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
djzach Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 BUMP!! Has anyone found a way to get the address book on there? Either from a CD or my Laptop? I know the iPhone transfer is out of the question for now Thanks Z Quote Link to post Share on other sites
