OK, can someone explain this to me:
I have an iPhone 3G that I want to hook up to my head unit through the back AUX/CDC port. I also have a working car charger that takes 12V in and has a USB port for charging that works with the iPhone.
NOTE: For the record, the charger outputs 5V, 2.8V, 2.0V and GND on the USB pins.
I hook up the left/right/gnd audio pins in the dock connector to the audio pins on the head unit. I also hook up pins 11/15/16 to pin 21 through a 66K ohm resistor (actually two 33K in series). Everything works great, no "not designed for iphone message".
I hook up the USB pins in the dock connector to the car charger and the power for the charger to the 12V/GND lines in the AUX/CDC port of the head unit. The phone charges, but I only have left audio. The right audio is instead various electrical noise - not noise on top of the audio, just noise. I unplug power from the car charger without unpluging anything else and immediately I have left and right audio again.
Also wierd is when the USB charger is attached, about every 4th or 5th time I attach the connector to the iPhone I get a "this device is not compatible with the iPhone" message - but it's a slightly different message than I used to see.
Any ideas?
