Use iPhone to control your stock BMW stereo

Hey Guys,
I'm a first time poster but have been reading these forums all day now. Like many of you I'm sure you hate the fact that you can't control your music with your iPhone when you connect it to your BMW stereo.

I found a simple solution for this and now I can control my iPhone music through my car stereo controls & my iPhone menu.

All you have to do is JailBreak your iPhone (if you don't know how just ask and I'll explain) and install an Application through the Cydia store called "NoAccessorySplash".

Once installed you now have gained full control of your iPhone again while controlling your stereo!

Very cool. Makes me want to switch from Android back to iOS. Maybe I will this Feb 10. Jailbroken of course.
