BMW iPod adapter + iPhone 3G

Tennberg · 02-28-2009, 11:55 PM

I have an '09 E90 335i that came with the BMW iPod adapter cable (one end plugs into your iPod/iPhone, the other end has two plugs - one is an aux plug, the other a USB plug). I am able to connect to my iPhone 3G with it and play music and what not, but I cannot seem to get the iPhone to charge. When I first plug it in, it asks me if I want to put it in Airline mode. Selecting either yes or no doesn't get the phone to charge.

Any suggestions? My iPhone 3G is running software version 2.2.1 if that helps. Anyone have an iPhone 3G that is getting it to charge with this cable?

You need a charging adapter (eBay)
