Just installed mine I love it already. Just trying to figure out how to wire in back up camera.
i Just bought the appradio2 and have been doing research, pioneer has an update that allows bluetooth and a new cable for hdmi streaming with iphone5
firmware update 8.3

Just installed my appradio 3. So far getting used to it. What I did not know and had incorrectly assumed is you DO need the MHL port or use a HDMI port and adapter if using android. I am going to spring for a MHL port and go that way. A regular cable (USB-micro) that you use to say charge the phone will not work.
Going to go ahead and get the back up cam while I have it all back apart lol..
Nice piece and yes the shaker 1000 sounds SO much better thru this thing. Only gripe is when it powers up I get a loud quick pop thru the speakers (all of them)
Yeah. I have the Appradio 2 and my speakers pop when it comes on too.
Evidently the 5v regulator can be wired in or a resistor...
Btw.. If using droid you need the stupid pioneer kit to hook it up. The idiots at best buy will likely not know shit about his unit or android stuff. I am looking into a an liberator also
So we need to put in a 5v resistor to keep it from popping?...
you can get a 5v regulator at best buy. they also have ones with like 5 wires plus to pre outs that should work with the subs.
or
just wire in a 1000 ohm resistor to each amp. I am going to do that first as I think it will be easy enough and have a few of those laying around. Just be advised this is going off info I got from the install dude at best buy so dunno how sound that information is going to be. plus too busy atm to really look into it
Oh ok. Yeah. My radio has to take the back seat. Bout to try to install my SC this week.

You have your priorities in order, continue.
Got trans back together and back in yesterday. Also had time to fiddle with the appradio.
If you have a droid you really need to look into ARU (AppRadio Unchained). Pioneer apps suck to say the least. Also do NOT buy the Pioneer MHL adapter kit if you have a Samsung galaxy smartphone. Won't work. Buy a genuine Samsung mhl 2.0. Cheaper and the only thing that will work.
Back to ARU..
If you have android and a smartphone that you can root you can use this free app. It allows complete control of your phone via the appradio touch screen. Badass.. your appradio is basically now your phone lol
Btw.. soldered in 2000ohm resistor and still have the pop when radio power on. Looks like the 5v regulator is the only solution.. if that works. When I get my diff gears swapped maybe I will try the regulator this week
Crown. I just traded my ip5 for a GS4. So I havent been able to use anything on my AR2. So I need to get the MHL adaptor snd what else? A hdmi chord? I didnt really want to spend anymore money on this radio. Including that ARLiberator ($35 app) . Let me know.
