  1. There's definitely something fishy going on there. Here's my experience using an iPhone 5... Bluetooth track and artist information sometimes worked in IOS 6. It was good in 6.1, but was broken after that. Only songs from the music app would display track/artist info. I was pleasantly surprised to see that in IOS 7.0, all Bluetooth information was displaying perfectly for any app (slacker, Pandora, etc...). However all subsequent upgrades to 7.01, 7.02 and 7.03 have all broken the Bluetooth display again and only the music app itself displays track info. But I found a very strange wor
  2. hey everyone! i bought an x920bt from crutchfield around launch time and the pioneer ipod cable (cd-50). i am using an iphone 3g with firmware 3.1.2, jailbroken, and on AT&T. unfortunately ive been having some odd problems with it and i was wondering if anyone has similar experiences or advice. 1) the iphone doesn't charge when plugged into the ipod cable. it chirps and i get the charging icon, but no charge happens. my 5th gen ipod video charges and connects no problem. when using pandora, the phone gets REALLY hot when plugged in but doesnt charge. 2) VR cataloging takes
  3. yep! i got the deal after installing a new GEX for my pioneer x920 4 weeks ago. incredible deal. instead of $156 + tax for a year, i pay $77 + tax?? and all i had to do was pay it up front? hell yea id make that deal anyday! i gladly forked over the money. i called the first time and the girl wouldnt give it to me without a promo code, but i called back a second time and asked another girl, "I wanted to know if the $77 online promotion was available?". she said it was and the rest is history. its one hell of a deal.
  4. definitely agree with the 2 posters before me. i had xm in 2003-2005 and sirius for a year in 2008 when i got a year free with my truck. i just got the x920 so i decided to install xm with it as well. i picked xm because of the better music channel selection and the baseball channels. but i DEFINITELY notice a difference in the compression rates between sirius and xm. xm has a MUCH stronger compreeesion rate than sirius, hence the sound quality isnt as good. one thing i did notice though was that, having the antenna on the roof as opposed to the dashboard made a big difference in sound q
  5. i have the x920 and i was researching all the info and stats before i bought it. i had XM back from 2003-2005 and then sirius for 2008 (got a free year when i bought my truck). i was going to buy the sirius adapter and interface but according to everyone on these boards, sirius looks terrible on pioneer radios. they couldnt have been more accurate. i decided on XM and wow....i couldnt imagine using sirius. in the instruction manual, they have pics of both and with all that gorgeous real estate on such a big 6.1 inch screen, to not use it properly is just a shame. XM displays EVERYTH
  6. I just recently installed an x920Bt with a GEX920xm tuner. I've had XM and sirius before so I know what's acceptable as far as the signal dropping out when going under an overpass. The installer placed the XM antenna on top of my dashboard right where the dash meets the windshield. I made a 3 and a half hour trip to Pennsylvania for Easter and it cut in and out way too much, even when on an open road. Is that considered a bad antenna location? What would be a better location to move it to? For the record, I drive a 2008 Ford Escape SUV. Thanks for any help!
  7. Hey! This is my first post here as I have been "trolling" ever since I got and installed my avic-x920bt last week. SO please pardon any naive questions In a nutshell, I LOOOOVE the unit. I previously had an older DEH-P9800BT but was very unsatisfied with the bluetooth performance (horrendous echo that rendered it literally useless) and the speed at which it read my ipod (scrolling took forever). I decided to take one more shot on a Pioneer thinking that the technology had come a long way since then, and to my pleasure, it absolutely has. But I am not sure about one thing though.
