Just bought my iPhone and got rid of my T-Mobile Wing (on eBay for sale if anyone's interested....)

Anyway, the Wing worked great with the uConnect system. I used it every day with no problem whatsoever. I removed the pairing of the Wing from the uConnect portion of the myGIG entertainment system and proceeded to pair the iPhone. The pairing went 100% smooth and I was happy.

Then I tried to make a call. First I went through the voice prompts as always and it said dialing. My iPhone said it was dialing and the audio option was uConnect. Immediately after that the "beep-beep" of the uConnect was heard and the radio came back on all the while the phone was dialing, thinking it was connected to uConnect still.

I tried the same thing again, this time dialing from my phone instead of through uConnect. The uConnect display on the radio never came on, but the phone says it was connected to uConnect.

I called uConnect support and spoke with 3 different people who told me the same thing: hold down the uConnect phone button and the Voice Recognition button above it at the same time for 15 seconds. Shut off the car, open the door (so the radio goes off) and wait 30 seconds. Reboot the iPhone, delete and re-pair the device to uConnect. Did that and still doesn't work.

I am going to bring it into the dealer tomorrow to see if there is anything they can do but it's not looking too good. Maybe disconnecting the battery to the Nitro will reset the radio completely? I don't know.

Anyone else out there have an iPhone that is working with the myGIG in their Nitro. According to uConnect, the iPhone is a compatible device (and there are posts on the Internet about people successfully using it).

It's not the bluetooth in the phone because I can connect the iPhone easily to my Motorola headset and that works fine.

Any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated!

I am having the same problem in my 2008 Dodge avenger. I called apple because my other phone was working with the mygig. Apple said it was an incompatibility between the iphone and the uconnect. They are trying to resolve this with a future update but for now we just can't use it.

wooow...i'm trying the same thing. on the phone w/apple right now & while waiting decided to check here. I'm kinda disappointed - i was sure the iphone would work w/UConnect in my Nitro. My Motorola RAZR worked great! Of course I don't have it now! Hope it gets straightened out. If I happen to find something that will work I'll be sure to post. Wendy

Im having the same problem in my new nitro. Iphone pairs fine with uconnect and when i ask Uconnect to make a call, it "beeps" twice and the system goes back to the radio, but the call still goes through just on the phone and not on Uconnect. The dealer tried the system on other phones and it worked, so its a problem between Iphone and Uconnect. Help anyone!!

you need this to make your iPhone work.

jeep.i-thrash.net/bin/mygig/NTG4_9.561.zip

Download it, unzip it, burn the files to a CD named the file name NTG4_9.561, be sure to use a quality disc and burn it on a slow speed setting. Insert it into your MyGig and follow the on screen directions.



P.S. I'm over from the Jeep Wrangler JK forums to share this...

Did it worked?

yep like a champ..

All...

I just had the dealer perform the software upgrade on the Mygig unit in my '07 Nitro SLT. The iPhone now works very well! No charge. Finally, a fix!

I have the REQ radio without U-connect. I want to retrofit this system. Does it work with the Iphone?
