iSimple manual control of the Music app?
I had an iSimple Gateway installed in my non-navi 04 TL today. When I plug my iPhone 4S into it, the thing takes over the music app completely and I can't change songs or anything by just picking them on the phone display. Is there really no way to do this?
I'm pretty disappointed if there's not - using the car's controls is extremely clunky and slow/lagged - it takes several seconds for it to update on the screen when I go to select something with the right knob on the stereo... not sure how this is supposed to be a workable system while driving. Using the phone itself would be 100X faster and safer.
Thanks!

SAT = XM Radio
IPOD = iPhone/iPod full control using the stereo/steering wheel buttons
AUX1 = iPhone/iPod raw audio, control it on the device itself
AUX2 = the 1/8" cable

Oh, so press the XM button until you are on XM1 or XM2? Then turn the right knob until it says AUX1.
I tried it, but I couldn't remember how to toggle through the SAT, IPOS, AUX1 etc. At work now, will try when I get home.

Yeah to get the iSimple source menu you have to leave the car's XM source then go back to it - I just hit the FM button, then hit the XM button again and it comes up - you use the tune knob/right knob to select the iSimple's source input then, yes.

hey I have iSimple also and all worked well until my battery died and have had to reactivate it all by finding out the pin code etc. Everything works now except that I can no longer control songs with the right knob nor steering wheel channel button. I have to open up my glove box (where my ipod is) and change the song from there. any advice? Thanks.
