Hey everyone, I bought the D3 off a friend and It's still running the gps cd from when I first got it and it's horrible so i've been using my phone as a gps instead. I also tried to hook the bluetooth up to my car but I can't hear any calls or a ringtone... I have the ipod cable but it won't charge the new iphones or new generation ipods so I've been using the old 2gig ipod from like 5 years ago. lol...

I paid a good chunk of money for this system and I had it installed by best buys. Everything works okay and I can even watch movies but I don't know anything about this system.

I see a bunch of potential for this system but I don't know how to access it.. If anyone can supply me with links to other threads on upgrading the firmware so I can atleast sync my Htc thunderbolt to the bluetooth or even buying new gps cds.. Thanks community.

To use the bluetooth, you need an adapter for the D3. the CBT200 its called I believe. I am not sure if you have it or not. To charge the newer Ipods and Iphones there is an adapter thing made by Scosche. Its called the PassPort

Here is a link to it at crutchfields site so you can see it. http://www.crutchfield.com/p_142IFWA/Scosche-passPORT.html?search=scosche+ipod+adapter

I do not know if Pioneer made a newer cable for our units.
