Default BT Unit not connecting/locating new Ipod (firmware update)

As some of you may have read on another forum (Audio/Visual Electronics) I have been having some issues with my BT streaming unit.
All is well again !!!
The unit and my NEW Ipod could not find each other. Veffremov sent me a link for a firmware update. This update allows me to delete prior devices. Prior to the update the BT unit would only allow 3 devices, and not look for anything after that. I found this out as the BT unit would work with my older Ipod, my sons Ipod, and my wifes phone. Thats 3 that were previously used in the car. At first I thought that my new Ipod was not compatible, but Veffremov put me at ease and hooked me up again as usual. The update was painless, and couldn't be any easier, even for me.
I love this unit and the support from veffremov is second to none!!!!

From Venelin:

Thanks to a device provided by a fellow user I have discovered an issue with the device software. When more than 3 phones are registered (paired) with the device, it may experience issues connecting to the near by phone. Unfortunately there is no way to un-register a phone from the device, so gradually you will hit this limit.

I posted a firmware update V3.1 on http://firmware.iqury.us/ it adds a feature where you can erase all, but the currently connected phone from the device. To perform this procedure type code 534 while switched to the CD-changer device.

Just a reminder the way you enter this code if you have navigation system is by pressing the disk corresponding to the code digit. If you have basic audio system, use the keypad on the right side.

Firmware update instructions:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...it?usp=sharing

"The V3.2 fixes a bug with the latest iOS getting stuck when you hit next. v3.1 added the code 534 to clear the list of devices. V3.0 fixed an issue with some oddball phones like BlackBerry or Nokia 635."

The link for the firmware update instructions is not working.

Just wanted to say, I'm another happy customer with veffremov's device. It's genius! I had a little issue because I had inadvertently unplugged another optical connector on the box right below the CD changer, but once that was sorted, everything works great. The biggest pain is getting the cord into the cabin.
