iPhone 3.0 and USASpec adapter

June 30, 2009 · Posted in Cars, Electronics 

As I have written in my previous posts, I have been pretty happy with the iPhone 3.0 update.  I have been experiencing one annoying problem.

When I connect my iPhone 3.0 to my USASpec PA15-HON2 adapter that is installed in my car, the iPhone stops playing audio and the screen flashes for about a minute, before audio starts playing.  Here are the steps that I use where the problems occurs for me

  • Play a track/playlist
  • Connect the iPhone to the dock
  • => The Radio switches to the cd changer input (correct for my setup)
  • => The screen in the iPhone continues to flash the iPod graphic for about a minute
  • => After about a minute a different track starts playing

Once music is playing, the interface works perfectly.  It will continue to work, until I disconnect and reconnect the iPhone.

I think that the iPhone 3.0 software added some addition scanning that happens when connected to this adapter.

    Spoke with USA Spec 2 days ago and it is a known issue. They are working on a resolution and hope to have a fix with a week or so. The tech told me you can still use Direct Mode or the AUX interface until a fix comes.
