Hey All,
I have asked this before but I am hoping there have been some changes recently. I have my iPhone hooked up to an aftermarket adapter that plugs into cd changer input of my factory car stereo. On the other end is the cord that looks like the iPhone cable that plugs into the bottom of the iPhone. Now when I am hooked up I can play my music through my car stereo and when the phone ringsthe music volume lowers and I hear the ring tone. If I answer it, no sound through my car stereo. I have to unplug the cord and use the actual iPhone to hear the call. Now I know when I am plugged into an Aux input through the headphone out the phone audio runs through the car speakers and the iPhones mic pickes up the audio. Has anyone figured a way around this yet. I am sure with all the amazing developers on this site that someone can write something to correct this issue???? All I know is that I would be willing to pay $100 dollars if someone could do this and I am sure there are others who would pay as well. This is the one thing that keeps me from being completely estatic with my iPhone experience. Please, help me Obi Wan, you are my only hope:laugh2:

no way around it. except for the 2nd way you described it, sorry. have you ever plugged it up both ways and then just switch it when the call comes through? Since the volume lowers. I think i may try that when i get a chance and see what happens, im sure it will work.

Well i just tried and i couldnt get it work only because my aux cable jack part isnt long enough to fit into the iphone itself. so i have to wait and buy another 1 and see what happens.

I use a combination of the iPhone headphone jack to car stereo aux input for music and a Nokia Bluetooth Car kit to car stereo for phone use. This combination works great for me.

Sorry, off topic. I just saw your flag waving on Texas.

Do you know what the 7th flag over Texas is????
