Mpittman Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 We just bought a 2016 DJ Crossroad Plus. It has the 8.4 uconnect system. My iPhone 6 doesn't appear to be compatible with the Text messaging feature. What phones will this work with? Animal Mother 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhh3 Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 Uconnect only supports up to iOS 7.1 POS, IMHO. I want my RBZ MyGig back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medabum Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 LG G3 does not work here. Wish it did as the voice recognition for everything else works pretty well. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 My iPhone6s works as it should, phone-wise. That's it. Same as my 2006 Jeep Commander! Animal Mother 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramfrank Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 This topic is only about messaging support on the DJ infotainment system. Animal Mother 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 MY POSTS HAVE BEEN ABOUT TEXTING. I DOESN'T WORK. MY PHONE IN MY DJ WORKS JUST LIKE MY PHONE IN MY COMMANDER, 10 YEARS AGO. NO TEXTING. Animal Mother 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bramfrank Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 If you really want text message support maybe you should consider getting a different phone . . . . . when the 6P I bought turned out not to support the feature, I went back to my carrier and got an S7. The S7 was more expensive than the 6P but they ate the difference and now my message button is lit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramfrank Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 It's actually neat - the system reads the message to you. You can respond with a canned message - if your phone can handle it you can also dictate a reply. larryl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Since I can't text and drive, maybe I could text and fly a Tomcat. No going back to any Android Phone, ever. Too much crap preloaded, constantly begging for upgrades. And, with its open platform, phone manufacturers are at freedom to add any crap they so choose to pick. Texting while driving is not high on my priority list. I don't believe I was even thinking about texting when I purchased my DJ. When Uconnect finally decides to get their collective heads out of the a**s, maybe they will move into the present and upgrade to iOS9.3.1!

Mrgixxer6 Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Just add Apple car play and we will be happy... dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramfrank Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 The best you can hope for is that they integrate the 8.2A system into the vehicle before the redesign, but they are not at all likely to do any major changes to the current system.

dhh3 Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Possibly the new radios can be installed if we want to pay out the big bucks. But, not high on my priority list. Animal Mother 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa927 Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 My 2016 doesn't appear to have the ability to do the voice recognition for texting. Am I missing something? I had a 2015 Jeep that had the feature, and I loved it. I was very disappointed to find out that the DJ can't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
