    1. It does work if you follow the book on page 24. It describes the steps to change blue tooth settings to Bluetooth and USB. Now I need the proper override because a simple relay does not work anymore (double engagement of hand brake required).

    2. Just use a standard toggle switch, flip it on and off and works perfect.That'll trick the deck thinking it's hooked up to the brake.

  4. You have to change the bluetooth settings to Bluetooth+USB or else you get the non compatible error

  5. Did the setting change to Bluetooth + USB resolve the issue? I am another user that had the same issue and I gave up on it and might pull the radio out again if there is a known solution. Would appreciate any feedback. Negative or positive.Thanks.

  7. Does NOT work with IPhone 5s. I spent so much money for the AVH-5600BHS and the cables to use with the 5s. Super pissed right now.

  8. This is for the newer devices with the lightning connector. What if i want to connect an ipod touch (30-pin connector) to the AVH-X3600BHS. Can i just use the CD-IU201V cable that connects to the usb/av simultaneously or am i screwed?

  13. I have a iPhone6 with iOS8.3 connected to AVH-X2790BT. This series is available in India. I have tried both CD-IV202 and CD-IV202AV cable options with lightning to VGA connector. Screen mirroring does not work and the head unit does not even recognize that the iPhone is connected. With direct USB my phone is recognized and I can play music over USB. AppRadio works with direct USB connect but Waze does not appear in the list of compatible apps. I have had the same problem with previous iOS versions and have also tried a iPhone5C. No response from Pioneer customer support whatsoever.
