I finally finished installing my Z120 today. What an awesome unit. Much better than my D1. I played around with the Ipod adapter and my iphone4. Works like a champ. I can play video from my Ipod. I was even able to stream Netflix video through the adapter. Pandora plays great though I had a difficult time figuring out the interface. You have to start the regular Pandora app on the Iphone first before it will connect to the Nav unit.

 

I did have to reset my amp input levels since the direct audio output of the Z120 is 4v where the D1 was 2v.

 

The scrolling is a little touchy. If you aren't careful you will select something you didn't intend to select while trying to scroll through menus and lists.

 

I will spend tomorrow morning putting all my car panels back in place and will then take some photos to post here. Thanks to everyone that helped me with the info I requested.

I dont. Are you using just the Pandora app or that Pandora Link garbage?

I have the Pioneer Pandora app and the normal Pandora app. If I try to start it from the Pioneer app it won't connect.

Loose that Pioneer garbage. It is no longer required and is completely obsolete now that the Pandora app has that function built in.

Does it really? I must have missed that memo.

Yep. Its been reported on here before. I don't even have link installed on my iTouch and it works just fine. I tether my i4 to the Touch so it can stay in the glove box and it never misses a beat with Pandora alone.

Does it still show the song and controls on the HU screen?

Yes, it does everything the Pioneer app does.
