IPhone 3G works with Alpine iDA-X200 car stereo

I just wanted to drop a quick note letting folks know that my iPhone 3G works flawlessly with my new Alpine iDA-X200 car stereo. Charging and playing music from the iPhone's iPod work well. As an added bonus I can also play Pandora music through my car speakers with the system. I do get the "This is not a supported accessory do you want to enable Airplane mode?" question but I answer "No" and haven't had a problem.
In case anyone is in the market for a new car stereo to work with their iPhone 3g I recommend the Alpine iDA-X100 or X200 head units.

So I went to the store where I bought my Alpine iDA-X200 and explained what was going on. They seemed to think that is was a problem with all X200s and not just the unit I got - they've had a number of problems with stereos hooked up to iPods and even more so with iPhones.
Well, after playing my iPhone 3G on a demo iDA-X200 for 18 minutes it began to drop out the audio. They were going to call Alpine in the morning and see if they had any advice but before that I plugged in my iPhone 3G into their demo iDA-X100 and let it play. After 35 minutes on the X100 it hadn't missed a beat so I paid the difference and swapped out for the X100. So far I'm pleased but we'll see how things go over the next couple of days - I and hopeful but have my fingers crossed.

  • 2.0.1 dropped audio with Alpine iDA-X200 car stereo

    So after about 20 minutes of playback, the iPhone will 'drop audio' for a brief moment .. enough to be annoying. When the iPhone was running 1.1.4 of the OS, I never had the dropped audio problem. But ever since I 'upgraded' to 2.0(and 2.0.1), the dropped audio will occur with the iDA-X200. Any solutions? I've tried Airplane Mode and same problem

    Hmmm interesting, I have the x100 and an original iPhone running at 2.0.1. I've noticed a few times that the music 'dropped out' but once I had the audio go totally bonkers, spitting out digital hash mixed with snippets of the song. Since I was driving at the time all I could do was to jiggle the connector and that seemed to work. It hasn't happened since.
    I wish I was of more help, but maybe by bumping this topic up a little someone else will chime in...

  • My 16g ipod touch not recogonised by Alpine iDA-x200 car stereo

    My new ipod touch is not recogonised by my Alpine ida-x200 car stereo. My 30g ipod video works flawlessly. The touch did seem to be recogonised twice, but if the stereo is turned off it's not recogonised again. Alpine says it should work. i have the latest versions of iTunes (7.6.2) Is this a problem with the ipod or the stereo. Can anyone add a little insight to my problem?

    Any news on this? I had my old Ipod stolen Monday and went out and got the 16 GB touch and have the same problem. I was told this would work fine. My old Ipod worked like a charm.

  • IPhone 3G Lack of compatibility with Alpine CDE-9852 car stereo system

    So I have a Alpine CDE-9852 car stereo system along with the Alpine iPod adapter in my 1994 Toyota Celica and I've come across a little problem ever since I upgraded to iPhone 3G. See, when I had my 2G iPhone and plugged it in via the dock connector, my car's stereo system played what was playing on my iPhone. When I answered phone calls the music stopped and then continued when the call ended. Most importantly, when I was plugged it, my iPhone charged itself. Everything was great!
    When I bought my iPhone 3G though, something changed. My system still plays songs from my iPhone, stop when a call comes in, and continues when the call ends, BUT my phone no longer gets charged! I've tried messing around with the phone, but no luck. So I'm assuming there is a compatibility issue, and I realize a firmware from Alpine is highly unlikely, so my question for you all is: Am I out of luck on this or is it possible that something can be done to allow my 3G to charge via the car's ipod adapter? Also, could Apple solve this issue, by adding more compatibility to the next firmware? I would appreciate any feedback and incite on what can/can't be done. I'm planning to write/call Apple and Alpine to try and get to the bottom of this problem. It's just so disappointing that the old phone charged and the new one doesn't. Thanks in advance for the feedback.

    So you were right to assume I transposed the numbers, it is the 9857. Thanks for all the valuable info you have given me so far. Now, here is my question, I have an iPod adapter box, that cost me $100. Now I'm not sure what model number this is (I can find out once I go home this weekend), but I can tell you it is an Alpine iPod adapter box. Its what I used to plug in my iPhone for the past year and a half. I bought this back more than 2 years ago though, so I don't know if affects the 2006 compatibility time period, so possibly you could answer that once I get you the model number. So with the 422i, would it replace the ipod adapter I have now, or just change the cable that goes from the adapter to my iPhone? Also, the website talks about it as though it strictly supports iPods, is it compatibable with my iPhone? Also, will I be able to use an phone features with the new cable.
    So with the replacement cable you said it will do 5 volt, which is what I need for the iPhone right? I don't have a 120 gb classic, so I'm all set there. As far as connecting my iPhone, playing music from it, and charging it, is this cable my solution?
    Also, so the scoche adapter would solve all these issues as well? Including the needed charging area? Finally, do you know if there are any head units out there by alpine or anyone for that matter that would provide me (an iPhone 3G owner) with all the functionality I've been looking for PLUS phone capabilities? I'm not looking to drop an arm and a leg or get a big screen alpine head unit, but something that would broadcast my calls in the car through the system. I realize this might have to include buying a bluetooth unit, but I figure it might be worth it to get all that capability.
    Thanks again Jeddix for all your help.

  • IPhone 4 iOS 4.2 doesn't work with Alpine iDA-X001

    I just get an error message on the head unit saying 'ipod not supported' and the iphone comes up saying 'device not made to work with iPhone' it's a different message to the one that always says' not optimized for iphone, may cause interference'
    It worked fine on iOS 4.1 and below, never had a problem but started doing this weird dropping out and crackling thing when i upgraded to 4.1.2.
    I hope apple can fix this cos I can't listen to music anymore in the car

    There are a bunch of us that can't use our car audio headunits via usb. And a large subset with the iDA-X001 - I'm in your boat as well: crackling distortion on the last update, and now nothing, just an ipod error message.
    I tried switching the cable, tried all the suggestions for resetting the phone and headunit, and plugging the cable in at different times. Even tried restoring the phone. I still get nothing but "ipod error" on my iDA-X001. I am back to using my Nano until they get this sorted. I can only hope that whatever they broke with the last update will be fixed in iOS4.3, which is rumored to be out in December.

  • Does the iPhone 4S work with the tom-tom car kit?

    The tomtom car kit still works fine with my old iPhone 4. I can not get it to work with my iPhone 4S at all it does not recognize the car kit.

    I also posted this problem on the tomtom fourums and got a fix from a user. In addtion to the iphone 4 adapter I used a peice of velcro on top of the existing adapter I had in place. Now it works with the iphone 4S. I guess the 4S is slightly thinner the the 4.

  • IPhone no longer works with Pioneer AVIC-D3 car stereo after recent update

    I've used my first gen iPhone with the iPod adapter/cable from my Pioneer AVIC-D3 since I first got it - and it's worked great. But after the recent update it doesn't work. I only get an "Error-11" message on the stereo screen when I plug the phone in. Anyone? This is really frustrating!
    Thanks.

    Nevermind. Did a hard reset of each and they work now. Odd...

  • My iPhone 5 pairs with my automobile except it does not allow me to "pickup" calls using the car facility.  I've contacted Acura RDX 2013 about this problem.  It referred me Apple for a fix. My iPhone 4 worked with the car technology.

    Thanks

    HI Friend,
    Probably the problem it is because your iPhone 4 and your car have the same Bluetooth technology ( 2.1 ), but iPhone 5 has new Bluetooth technology ( 4.0 ).

  • Will Iphone 4 work with usb 1.1

    I have a 3g now and it said it required usb 2.0 but it works fine with 1.1 just a little slow. Will iphone 4 work with my usb 1.1, everything else updated ie itunes?

    No,
    You need USB 2.0 ports. Per Apples website:
    Windows system requirements
    * PC with USB 2.0 port
    * Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
    * iTunes 9.2 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
    * iTunes Store account
    * Internet access

  • Will the T-Mobile iPhone 6 work with AT&T LTE?

    Will the T-Mobile iPhone 6 work with AT&T LTE? This page seems to indicate it will: http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/ But I imagine the phone could be locked to T-Mobile.

    What about the contract free one?  It ships with a T-Mobile SIM and is unlocked (e.g. AT&T works with no issues on 4G for me), I'm just unable to get LTE.    I've noticed the "carrier" setting is missing from the Settings menus...however when I navigate to the About screen, it downloads the carrier specific updates, so based upon https://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/ it should work, right?
    How do you get AT&T LTE on the contract-free/T-Mobile SKU?

    Can a Sprint Iphone 5 work with T-mobile network? How can one unlock with the MSL code? Sprint is not abiding by the Unlocking Consumer Choice and Wireless Competition Act.  FCC will only enforce if we file more complains.

    T-Mobile is a GSM network whereas Sprint is a CDMA network. They are incompatible. Sprint is not obliged to unlock a phone that is still under contract. Their phones may not be capable of being unlocked.
