Prius V (Audio/Electronics) :: Phone Screen Flickers When BT Connected

We just picked up Prius 2. Like it alot. Only issues so far:

I can't find the dual anchors for the infant seat base; I know I feel dumb and I'm sure the dealer can show me how to access Blue Tooth connection; Phone screen flickers on and off see attached images. I lose the ability to dial number or access contacts

Phone is connected the whole time. I've deleted and added the phone several times. I am using Samsung Infuse ATT

See images for what I'm talking about......

Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Upgrading Rims And Stereo

So need rims and a stereo upgrade. I am getting my Prius on the 28th and want to do the stereo upgrade immediately. My stereo shop here in Tampa is saying that they don't want to do more than 1 amp because the draw could be too much and give me problems with the electrical system. SO I wonder how much power all the things in the car take up while running and then how big an amp (or two) can I put in there? How many Amps (not amplifiers) do I have left over safely for use in upgrading the stereo?

I have a Pioneer Avic stereo (not sure the model at the moment but it does DVDs, CDs, and NAV. Has 5v pre-outs which are nice. I also want to run a set of

Up Front:

DLS Ultimate Iridium 6.3i components up front

6.5" woofer, 3" midrange, 1.1" tweeter. 100w RMS per channel

I thought to put the woofer in the door, the 3" in the dash like rrolff's squaker install (I have the NONJBL audio too). and tweeter in the stock location.

Rear:

Possibly component set in the rear doors but haven't really decided yet.

I have a set of 5.25-inch components that can go back there from DLS as well Figured why not use them. but if there are better ones out there I am not opposed to it.

The amps I am considering are both JL One is the HD 900/5 which is 100x4 + 500x1 or the XD 700/5 which is 75x4 + 300x1

Gen 2 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: AUX Function On Stereo Is Not Working

I just bought an 2008 Prius and I cannot for the life of me get the AUX function to work on my stereo. I have my iPhone plugged into the jack inside the center counsel, hit the DISC/AUX key and nothing. The cable between the iphone and jack is good, because I tried it on other devices and it works great. When I have a disc inserted into the stereo the DISC/AUX button works when switching from AM/FM radio to Disc and the cd plays. But when I have the cd removed from the stereo and hitting the DISC/AUX switch it does nothing. What am I doing wrong??? Or is the stereo broken????

Gen 2 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Stereo Lights And Sound Cutting In / Out

I have a 2006 Prius with Nav/JBL audio. For nearly 8 months, my stereo has been cutting in/out intermittently. When it cuts out, it has the following effects: lights on the stereo itself dim almost entirely, and: AM - completely silent; FM - I hear fuzz; CD - music plays, but volume is significantly cut and sound is heavily distorted (particularly bass frequencies); AUX - acts the same as CD.

I've confirmed that the fuses are fine. Assuming it will fix my problem, I would like to replace the stereo with a new double-din deck, but I am not sure how to tell whether I am dealing with a stereo deck issue or a amplifier issue. Given the dimming of the lights, my guess is that it is the stereo itself and not the amp - I would prefer not to have to mess with replacing the amp.

Whether this sounds like a stereo deck problem vs an amplifier issue?

Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Adding Aux Input To Factory Stereo

Is it possible? My friend just bought a 2013 model but i'm not sure what trim level it is. It has no USB or Aux input. Is the input adapter something that can be removed from a wrecked gen 3 prius and just plugged into hers and be recognized?

Gen 2 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Speedo Not Working After Stereo Install

I recently picked up a 2007 Prius and absolutely love the car. This past weekend, I installed an aftermarket head unit where the pocket below the radio was (kept stock unit plugged in to avoid climate control issues, plus like the stealth aspect), along with an amp and sub combo.

Prius V (Audio/Electronics) :: Add Pause Or Wait To Phone Number Display Audio

Can Display Audio's phone interface accept pauses or waits (P or W) in the phone number? My phone uses them for voicemail passwords, eg dial the number, pause a few seconds, and then dial the password. So far it does not work at all through the bluetooth interface when initiated through voice command ("call xxx xxx xxxx pp yyyy#") or through the car's screen. I tried to directly store a similar number into the Display Audio "stored" numbers but could not find an option for the P pause.

Prius C (Audio/Electronics) :: Illumination Of Audio And AC Display In Bright Sunlight

Sometimes in the bright sunlight, I cannot see the audio display or the small AC display that shows which vents the air is coming out from. Is there any way to illuminate these displays? Will some LEDs around them work or make it worse? I'm driving a C two. I have no intention of upgrading to an aftermarket sound system; I just want a simple inexpensive way to see the info on the screen.

Prius C (Audio/Electronics) :: Display Has No Controls For Audio Cable

Just got a 2012 c3, and I'm trying to get my iPod Nano (4th gen) to show up on the display as an iPod, controllable from the steering wheel and display. The manual says this iPod model is compatible. The iPod software is up to date.

If I plug my iPod into the AUX with a standard audio cable, it plays over the speakers fine but the display shows only "aux" and has no controls for it. If I plug it into the USB with an Apple cable, it doesn't plays over the speakers at all, and the USB doesn't show up as active on the display -- it's grayed out. I tested the cable elsewhere and confirmed it's fine.

Gen 2 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: 2007 Stereo Changed - Not Showing Tracks On LCD?

Recently I changed my 2007 Prius sterio (basic audio cd) to Prius factory sterio (51824) that has mp3.

Even though it is playing mp3 cds fine but I am not able to see the track info on the lcd while playing mp3 cd in the unit.

I am also not able to skip a folder (no option for it) only can skip tracks 1 by 1.

I also added 4 wires in the 20 pin connector that ables aux input which works perfect.

Gen 2 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Stereo Power / Volume Button Popped Out

Strange occurrence the other day that I have not been able to remedy. The volume/power button that can pop in & out on the dashboard hadn't been used of late but when I went to depress it, the button popped out. It is spring loaded and the knob itself has an end that is cut into quarters - persumably to fit into the female end within the JBL stereo unit itself. But can't figure out how to get it to stay in place as it continues to pop back out. Volume & power functions still work but button/knob won't stay in.

Gen 2 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: 2006 - While Stereo Playing Sound Cut Off Abruptly?

I have a 06 JDM prius with hard drive-based audio and navigation system. Today the car was parked in a ready mode with the stereo playing and the audio cut off abruptly. I investigated and found that all of the audio and navigation controls on both the steering wheel and center console were unresponsive. It is impossible to switch between modes I.e. CD, HDD,radio and the CD drive no longer rejects. Bluetooth pairing works but no sound coming from the driver side speaker when in a phone call. When the car is started the MFD shows that it's playing audio from the hard drive as shown below but there's no sound and its impossible to change tracks.

Gen 2 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: 2005 JBL Sound System - Connecting IPhone To Stereo

2005 Prius with Premium JBL sound system with CD Changer, tape Deck, etc. package 6 with Navigation.

Since it's a 2005 no USB input for my iPhone 4s to play music. I often stream pandora or music that's stored on my phone.

So far I have been connecting my iPhone with cassette adapter to headphone jack. The audio pretty much sucks through this method and FM transmitters are even worse!

What is the best way to connect iPhone 4s to my Prius stereo? What exactly is DICE and how good is the Audio Quality?

I do not use CD change at all! Is changer connected to an Aux. input that I can switch out for a USB input?

Can I just swap out my unit for a later model with USB input? Looking for the best audio quality option.
