Word...... Pandora is pretty tight. XM is cool too. I have a CD that has like 90 tracks on it & a 32GB flash drive hooked up to my 2nd USB. Oh you can also watch movies on this HU as well, but would not recommend doing so while driving.

Depends on if you use the cable or Bluetooth. Even with Bluetooth you can skip tracks. You just can't back in and out of folders.

I usually just play all of my tracks on random anyways. So will the screen display album art as well? I'd rather use an aux cable if the audio quality is better than Bluetooth.

Screen will not display artwork via bluetooth. Cable will be the best sound. Better than bluetooth. Ideally you want to use the iPod cable, not the aux.

I have an Android phone, hopefully there is a cable to obtain better audio quality than the aux.

There is....... You can either go with the iPod (iPhone) cable or the Android cable. I was asked which one I would like to go with. I have an iPhone with the juice, so the micro USB cable works. Some how I was stuck with the iPhone cable, but no worries.

This headunit is awesome, but I've noticed it won't display some album art when hooked up through USB. Any idea why?

Yeah, the album artwork shows up on my phone but not on the headunit.

I know when I run Pandora through my iPhone the art work shows up on the HU. Now if I run a flash drive maybe & the same with a CD.

I can't seem to get Pandora to work, it just says disconnected.

Have Pandora turned on on the iPhone & push the Pandora button on the HU. You do have the iPhone connector to the HU? I wouldn't see why it wouldn't work. I haven't had any issues, but at times it takes awhile depending on your location.

Hmmmm......... Seems to be slow sometimes & not sure why. I also have the XM adaptor, but not sure why really. Pandora is pretty sweet to have when it is working properly. I wish Pandora didn't have the commercials.
