Iphone 3G does not work
Well, I went to test drive the new max and we are considering getting one. Very slick car. It's going to be hard to part from the 2k2 to this, but I think this may be the car. One thing I tested was the Iphone 3G. well I get the msg that this charging is not supported and to turn on airport mode. Thought i'd share my insights of what I found.

Yes this was made for the first gen Iphone. I bought a car charger for 20.00 at the att store. I like the bluetooth feature as this is the first time I ever had this. The code is 1234 if memory serves me right.

Is the I Pod touch the one that looks just like the I Phone? I was getting ready to buy one specifically for when I get my Max, but if it's not compatible why bother. Any I Pod user's help please. I would think that if the 3 G is compatible then the touch should be as well. The 3 G is newer then the touch.

ForeverMAX: The msg states that the charging mechanism is not compatiable and will not charge. This has been A BIG issue with the 3G iphone. It will NOT charge.
Maximak99: The Ipod touch has not had issues with charging that I have heard of.
It just the new 3G requires what's called the D- and D+ signals from the USB port (which is how it really is charged even thought the connector looks nothing like a USB port) and a lot of charging devices dont have this. So the Iphone will work to transmit data, but not charge.

Iphone 3g Charging Solution
Found a solution for anyone with the Iphone 3G. Here is the link. You can also get a/v cables cheap.

Don't blame Nissan, Apple changed the specs.
Microsoft/Toshiba did the same thing with my Zune. Changed the charging specs and now my previous chargers don't work correctly.

Motorola is the same... most of their phones can charge from a standard USB port +5V, but only if Motorola software drivers are installed so that the correct response is received on the data channel. It's one way they (attempt to) control accessory licensing (although they tell the customer it is to protect them from "substandard" charging devices).
Nissan's interface was probably designed before they knew that Apple was jumping on this same bandwagon. Nissan may or may not come up with a fix (which may possibly cost them licensing fees from Apple) but, as Compusmurf stated, it's Apple you should be ticked at, not Nissan.
Just be glad its not Verizon offering the iPhone... they would probably charge extra for the privilege of connecting the phone to an external device. They have a history of disabling features that phone manufacturers build into their phones and then charging you extra to turn them back on (bluetooth file transfer, for instance). There is a huge Verizon "underground" dedicated to hacking Verizon's "de-featurization" - there are a bunch of Verizon phones running around with hacked Alltel firmware on them (Alltel typically leaves all features activated - unfortunately Verizon just bought Alltel - ughhhhhh).

This adapter looks promising. Now find one that will allow me to hook my zune to the ipod connector.

I will definitely buy it, but will wait till the price will drop to like $20 with shipping,.

It's going to be awhile before stores have them cheap. Maybe ebay will.

I found this... It looks like it should work fine. I think I am going to order this plus a dock cable extension so i don't have to plug this converter directly into the iphone.

I watched the Youtube video as well and I just purchased this adapter for my IPHONE 3G. It should be about a week before it gets here but I will keep you all posted once I have it available.

So here is a new one...
I have my 3G synced through BlueTooth and when I am on a call I can hear my voice echoing loudly. I can still hear the other person, but they can also hear the echo.
I have re-synced the phone, tried playing with a couple of settings, but im not sure what else to do.
Any ideas?
