Well, I just downloaded the latest update of the iPhone 3G (3.0.1) in hopes that the update would rectify our iPhone iPod sync portion, and still no change to the "unplayable file" prompt on the Navi of the 09 TL. However, I did figure out why it is dropping on my phone and TL connection. The Wifi is shutting off the iPod to TL sync. If I turn off the Wifi or use the airplane mode, the iPhone sync's perfectly to the TL, every time?

Also to report that the address book import worked fine, and the bluetooth audio and sync is working fine too.

 

The 3.0.1 update just patched up a nasty vulnerability the phone had, no real feature change. The 3.1 update (due in around a month) is more of a feature rich update, and i've noticed so far that the 'unplayable file' problems are gone, in exchange for just a little longer load time. I'm still not thrilled with how the phone handles the 'handsfreelink', but thats been that way since the 2.0 software...the 3.1 beta handled the phonebook import with ease yesterday, so thats a plus as well

 

When I updated my TL phonebook from my 3.0.1 updated iPhone every contact came out duplicated. I still can't figure it out. There's no way to delete individual contacts form the TL phonebook, is there?

 

So you're having no issues syncing with 3.1, and you have a 3G phone? Did they implement MMS yet in the text app with 3.1?

 

MMS is still inactive and they patched the workaround that was out , they still have a month or so to hit "late summer availability" so we'll see...no issues whatsoever syncing with the new firmware (so far :X)

 

Guys, do you know if the new software update (that's coming in a month) will address the battery life issues? I've asked a few Apple people. The answers I've gotten are:

1. Hopefully
2. I'm not sure
3. I didn't know there was another software update coming.

 

Hopefully, but I'm not sure. :-)

 

i have no issues playing from iphone 3.0.1 on my TL awd, whats your issues? I connect to tl like i do my ipod, for the iphone 3gs, i select "NO" for the Air mode? question, and it works perfectly.

I'm having NO issues with the newer 3GS, 3.0.1. The sync is clean, and iPod comes up right away. Odd, it might be a "quirk" in the 3G?

 

I have a 3G iphone on 3.0.1 and the only thing annoying thing is the popup message saying that this accessory is not compatible. I click no to that message and all seems to be working as expected.

 

yah np here, ive tested friends 3g as well, 3gs too

 

Excellent, I guess we're over that speed bump.

 

I had a couple of phone calls where the phone rings and when I press the HFL button to answer it, it cancels the call instead.

 

Hold the phone, I was wrong. The reason I had no issues with the new 3GS iPhone, is because the bluetooth was off. With the bluetooth on and synced up, the iPod cuts off on the initial plug into the data port. So the drama continues.

Steve, makes sure you hit the left button, the right button cancels the call. I've done that before, as the icons are not clear which is which.

 

Thanks bmode! Actually, for me, what is happening is that when the iPhone is linked to the TL, I answer the iPhone via the HFL, the HFL would cancel the call-even before it answered the call.
