Just bought the pioneer f60dab and just trying to understand the new technology. My iphone is a 4s. What i want is to control my phone from the head unit and running dashcommand.

 

Think i got that wrong. Its the difference of being connected through the usb to phone and the mirror link adapter you have to buy seprate with hdmi and usb connected

 

The usb to phone doesnt work in app mode well my last one didnt had to buy a wire that connected to both usb and jack plug

 

I have a similar setup in my impreza...pioneer head unit running appradio from my iPod touch in the glove box. I bought the right cable from amazon to go in the head unit and the 30 pin adapter for the iPod - it was about £15 for the cable.

 

After flicking through a 100 pages in the manual. From phone to usb is ipod control and it says for the app mode to get this cable

That does the same job as the lightning adapter.

Whats the one you got useing

 

My cable was the CD-IU201N and cost me £15 from amazon.

I can do either mirror link or the full on app radio interface

 

Just had a look at the manual for your stereo and the cable you put in the post above mine is the right one :-)

 

I will get that one and see how i get on with it

I bought this one as it says the model number for the lead i need but the the little tabs are slightly out of line at the back of radio. So something is wrong somewhere
