eas | Official DICE MediaBridge iPod/iPhone Multimedia Hub Q/A thread

I purchased the 1500 with bluetooth and it was a snap to connect. However within a day the bluetooth audio from started to cutout about every 10 seconds for a split second when using my iPhone. It gets kind of annoying after a while. Anyone know what could be causing this? Also, I have an 01 X5 with the business CD but I can't get the text to display. Is an 01 business CD too old to display the text? It displays text when I listen to the radio.

What OS is running on your iPhone? Is the same behavior present with an iPod?

I have OS 3.1.2 on the 3G iPhone. The dropout only occurs when I use the bluetooth. When I hook it up with the USB, it works fine.

I cannot recreate the issue here - is your iPhone jailbroken?

Tom maybe you can help me?
I bought the Mediabridge a few weeks ago from you guys and I've not been able to get it to work correctly. I've detailed my problems here Dice Mediabidge vs Intravee - The Unofficial BMW M5 Messageboard (m5board.com)

Mine is not jailbroken. I unpaired it then paired it again. It worked for the first day, but I haven't had a chance to check it since. But I am still unable to get the text to work.

Your post on M5Board is a but confusing, but let's try to clear things up. You state your text looks like this on the NAV screen:



I've seen this before, it's a result of using a an older radio module which has a bit of issues with text overlapping - this has nothing to do with the MediaBridge unit. This often happens on non-M models that upgrade from the 4:3 to the 16:9 screens.

Unfortunately, the radio will need to be swapped with a CD53 unit to correct the text display, or I can see if DICE can present the option to display text on the OBC instead.

You may mean BM53 here.
