i have a big problem with IOS 6 and audio bluetooth

My Radio Car Pioneer AVH-2400 BT dont work with bluetooth, no tag, no control, just possibility to play from iPhone. All the function is OK in IOS 5

Nothing jn IOS 6 :-(


Plus de fonction Bluetooth audio depuis le passage en IOS 6 avec mon autoradio Pioneer AVH-2400 BT, tout fonctionnait bien sur IOS 5, maintenant je peux juste lire depuis l'iPhone et plus d'affichage d'infos sur le titre ou l'album (TAG)

Je viens d'acheter cet autoradio il y a 1 mois, c'est un modèle 2012 !

I have the EXACT same problem with the EXACT same car stereo. After reading how it's affected multiple manufacturers right after everyone updates to the new iOS, it's clear that this is an Apple problem.


Let's get this fixed!

I also use a Pioneer AVH-P2400BT and noticed that the Bluetooth audio control no longer works. The telephone functionality seems 100% in-tact.


My understanding is that the radio and iOS 5 use AVRCP 1.3 to provide control, and iOS 6 was updated to use AVRCP 1.4 which the radio doesn't support.


I don't believe Apple will add support for the older protocol back to iOS6 and have to hope and pray that Pioneer will provide a firmware update to the 2012 model radio to support the newer 1.4 protocol.


I believe we'll need to make some noise to Pioneer to get that done...

I am by no means an expert on A2DP, so someone please correct me if I am wrong, but I have a hard time believing that this is a Pioneer issue. By reading similar posts, I can see this is affecting more than just Pioneer.


I look at this similar to having backwards compatibility to USB. If I were to use a USB 2.0 device on a USB 3.0 bus, I would have the same functionality as if I were plugged into a 2.0 bus. It gives me the option of purchasing a 3.0 device in the future if I so choose, but allows me to continue using my device.


I'd hate to think that Apple is arrogant enough to force everyone to upgrade to use their device, when their competitors device works just fine with the existing hardware. Or at least notify everyone that in order to use their devices, an update is going to be needed so we're not blind-sided like this wondering what the heck happened.

I have an iPhone4 and a Pioneer AVH-P2400BT car unit. I've upgraded to IOS 6. The update (from what I've tried and what I can tell) is NOT reversible.


Here's what I've found happening between the iPhone & Pioneer for bluetooth streaming audio:


1. The track/artist info no longer displays.

2. The track skip buttons no longer function.

3. The pause/play button no longer functions. It may SEEM like it does, but it simply mutes the audio, the content continues to play (silently) on the iPhone.

4. The content no longer resumes when the vehicle is started.

5. The content will pause when the vehicle is turned off, but a couple of seconds continue (silently) on the iPhone.

6. If content is paused by the vehicle being turned off, it will resume playing on the iPhone speakers following an incoming phone call, whether answered or not. (This can be a little embarrassing, depending on the content of your prefferred podcasts! 😊 )
