Re: bluetooth music issues after iOS6 update

So good news to anyone else who has a Pioneer head unit. Pioneer has completed their compatibility testing of most of all of their newer head units using iOS 6 running on iPhone 4/4S and 5. So it looks like there is a clear AVRCP issue with a number of their head units (including mine unfortunately) for all iPhone models and it looks like Pioneer is planning to release a firmware update to address the issue, although an ETA has not yet been announced. Maybe this actually is an issue with the software on the other devices and not iOS 6. Either way Apple needs to be working more closely with device manufacturers to ensure compatibiliy with features prior to public release.

You're correct...the patch is loaded on a USB drive and then applied via the USB port on the head unit.


I checked with Pioneer, and they have not released any updates. Gentleman, we are dead in the water with our Bluetooth interface until an update happens. If you wanted me to guess, I'd say that it's far more likely for Apple to get an update on backwards compatability for Bluetooth out sooner than Pioneer or the other manufacterers.

Bluetooth doesn't work with iOS 6 and iPhone 5. I had iPhone 4S with iOS 6 beta working flawlessly, but the release version on the iPhone 5 killed the functionality in my 2012 Lexus. I cannot believe this isn't a huge problem for thousands of users. Siri no longer works over the sound system either. Even tethered with the USB to Lightning connector it still won't work.
