Also, with a flash-drive there are only playlists (folders) available. With an iPod you can also choose among artists, albums, genre, etc., and the start up is almost instantaneous as the audio system communicates with the iPod.
An iPod is something to strive for if you're into having the ultimate in selection options.

Help?
You can use a male-to-male 3.5mm audio cable between the iPod Touch and the port near the USB port. Control would be by the Touch and not the audio system, except volume. A cheap, but inefficient system.
Get the $35 MP3 cable from Hyundai and all will work as it should. It has BOTH USB and earphone cables integrated.

Is anyone else seeing this issue or could I possibly have an issue with my cable? I did notice that with my old iPod, it never seemed to charge correctly even when connected, but I chalked that up to the battery being worn out and not really holding a charge.
Thanks,

If anyone else has any ideas in the meantime, I'd be happy to hear them.

I haven't had time yet to go back and ask them about it but it drives me nuts. When paired wirelessly, i don't have that problem... but i prefer to not have to look down at my phone when i want to choose something. I'm sure i could just get a cable for aux only, but i prefer to have it up on my Navigation screen.
Do they have a site for checking on updates via usb? It Would be awesome.
Anyway... Heading to LA this weekend. Can't wait to just rot away listening to XM Raw Dawg etc. for 4.5 hours in the desert. Dope.
Thanks
Let your iphone connect via Bluetooth first before connecting the cable. This may take 30 seconds or so. Once the phone is connected, plug in the cable. You will see an error message on the iPhone screen (not optimized etc..) you can dismiss it, or ignore it. At that point you should be good.
I have: ipod Touch 4th gen; ipod Nano 3rd gen; Palm Pre
With the special iPod cable ($22 on Amazon), i only get AUX detection w/ the ipods. And charging. Song selection is from the ipods only.
With my normal (apple default)iPod USB cable, I get full detection as ipod on head unit, steering wheel control, head unit control, Hyundai logo on ipod, "Accesory detection" msg on ipod, charging. Basically everything. So my $2 cable works perfectly. Just need to order a black one now to match sonata interior better.
Basically, i did not expect these results because of what the majority of reviews/comments i've seen have said. I'm assuming other hyundai models did require the special cable and hyundai maybe made some recent change?
Using my mini USB cable detects my Palm pre for music, as expected.
ALSO, I do not know if its due to the same issue, BUT, as the XM stopped working so did my HYUNDAI CABLE Aux cord I use to connect my IPHONE that displays the info on the radio. My phone no will not charge when plugged into that cord and no longer displays the info on the radio.
Please help!!
Someone said it may be the XM SET TOP BOX (?no idea where it is)for the xm, as for the cable I have no idea
Check the fuse. Pull the fuse to fully power-down the stereo, then re-insert it.
FYI: The stereo should have a 3 year/36K warranty so if you're within that period take it to a dealer for servicing.
Any other advice?
similar Sonatas on his lot they play just fine. After contacting Hyundai Motors directly they,
Hyundai Motors now claim that they cannot guarantee playback on "homemade discs ".
In addition these MP3s play in any other brand I tried, such as Ford Fusion, VW Beetle,
Lexus, Infiniti,etc.
Can I accept this explanation as bona fide, when in actuality my Sonata radio system is
labeled as XM/AM/CD/MP3 Playback?
Well last week for 2 days the XM Radio AND USB port worked fine, I have no idea what happened, but for whatever reason for 2 days the XM radio loaded and the USB port worked and displayed the information for my iphone on the screen and charged my phone as its supposed to do.
Then it stopped working, so what does this lead people to believe might be wrong with it? Im sorry but it has been terrible going from an AVID SiriusXM listener to having to tough it out listening to FM radio.
PLEASE HELP!
Thanks again everyone.

08 sonata gls with no aux port
Re the stuck CD, I had that happen too. I think I solved it by putting in another CD and then ejecting them and was able to get both of them back.
Let us know how it goes!
I just bought the car on Saturday and love it but hope to get the radio thing fixed soon. My CD player also won't take another CD...don't know if one is in there or not since I just bought the car.
I have a Sonata 2011 w/ the GPS system and all of my audio is off. I have looked in the various displays, but can't find a mute or anything similar that seems to work to turn the audio back on. Does anyone have an easy solution or is there a more extensive problem? I have checked the owners manual to no avail.
Thanks!
