I recently recieved an itrip radio transmitter from a relative and have tried to use it with my iPhone 4 running iOS 7.1.2 with no avail. Tried the device with my iPad 2 running its latest firmware, any help will be much appreciated

iPhone 4, iOS 7.1.2
What happens when you try to use it? From what I can read about the device on the Griffin website, it is designed to connect the iPhone or other idevice to the vehicle's radio system, to be able to hear your music from the iDevice in a vehicle. What about it is not working? Have you followed the instructions from the manufacturer?
Without knowing what it is or is not doing and what you have tried to correct the problem, no one could help.
When I try to use it with my iPhone nothing happens, as there is an LCD screen on the device that shows the logo of the company on plugging it into the iphone. Every part of the device isn't working in the iPhone but perfectly works on the iPad 2. Followed all manufacturers instructions, I've tried soft resetting my iPhone and even resetting to factory settings but to no avail
if it connects so the minijack then have you tried other headsets to see if the headset connector of the iphone is broken?
I only have the one iPhone to connect it to, maybe it might be the charging port itself, not sure how to test that it might be. Any ideas?
How does it connect to the phone? As Rudegar asked, do you have other headphones if the device connects to the headphone jack that you can test to be sure the jack is functioning. Otherwise, you may need to contact Griffin support for assistance, to ensure the particular model you have is compatible with the model iPhone you have.
It connects to the charging port of the iphone, no it doesn't connect to the headphone jack it does work with the iphone 4 model as my relative who gave me the transmitter had and used it with the iPhone 4
Then what is not working? Do you not get a signal on the FM radio you are trying to use? Are you not able to change the frequency that you can broadcast with? I'm guessing this is similar to a unit that I had, where you set the radio in the car or house to a certain frequency, you set the iTrip to that frequency and then can play music in your Music app and it plays over the radio. What is it doing or not doing.
Its the same as yours but the device doesn't power on at all on plugging it in, where as with the iPad I tried worked perfectly and broadcasted music without trouble so nothing happens on plugging the device into my iPhone
