Using iPhone 3G with Aux input - Help Needed

X5 Meister · #1 11-24-2010, 03:08 PM

Does anyone know what the trick is to use an iPhone 3G with the aux input? I just want to listen to the music from the iPhone (via the ipod function) and I was told all I had to do was connect the aux input to the dock connector (via an adapter as shown IPHONE LINE OUT DOCK WITH STEREO JACK(BLACK COLOR) - eBay (item 300330194448 end time Dec-05-10 19:00:04 PST)) and the iPhone would recognize it and send the signal out. However it just plays the music on the iPhone speaker. Is there a software setting that must be activated somehow? It seems to work perfectly with an iPod by the way.

I don't know anything about that device but If your using the aux input all you need to do is plug the 1/8 plug into the top of the iPOD/iPhone or the output of any any device. Turn the volumn up on the device and the volumn up on your radio and your good to go.

What's the name of that device and who is the MFG. Finally no software is required

Hey thanks for the reply. I included a link to the seller of the device in my post. I'd prefer to use it since it will give a line-out output which is far better than using the headphone jack and will allow my to adjust volume using just the radio, etc. I'm definitely missing something most likely on the software end since when I plug the iPhone into a speaker dock I also have the same problem.
