[Q] Pandora Through USB to Car Audio - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all, looking for help connecting the GS5 to my Fiat's audio with a USB cable. Music is playing from the Google Play app whenever I plug in, but it won't play Pandora (runs through the speaker on the phone at the same time as Google Play going to the car's audio). Force closing Google Play just makes the car not notice the phone. Any pointers?

I have the same problem.

Same exact problem. Just bought father GS5 and hes not very happy he can't stream Pandora through USB.

I'm almost positive that Pandora's DRM would be blocking this type of playback.

Inconsistent bluetooth

Has anyone else noticed inconsistent bluetooth connections with their Atrix? I use Motorola S9-HD Bluetooth headphones when I bike ride and often the audio cuts in and out. But sometimes it works flawlessly. Has anyone else experienced something like this? Also does anyone have any suggestions to stop it from happening?

I have an Atrix with the same exact headset and experience the same disruptions
Sent from my Atrix using XDA App
It is possible that your headset is not 100% compatible with Atrix.
I had this problem 3 years ago with my windows mobile phone. i purchased a logitech bluetooth headset which was not compatible with windows bluetooth drivers. I then purchased the Cardo S2 and it was flawless.

Having the same issues with Plantronics Voyager Pro+
I'm rooted with greyblur...
I don't use a headset/phones with bluetooth, but I do use bluetooth all day long at work for PhoneExplorer and I use it in the car with a BT equipped JVC head unit and never notice any issues. I do notice considerable crappyness when using the Car's hands free phone functions though.
Thanks for the input guys. Maybe it is just the headphones. I'm going to see if I can borrow a different set from a friend and try his to see if it continues to happen.

Exactly the same issues. Hit ir miss whether they will pair or not. Every time. Annoyingly inconsistent. Especially since they are both Motorola products.

I'm also having the same problems with a Blueant Q2.
It mainly starts skipping when I put my phone in my pocket while listening to music.
Anyone else have any feedback on this?

Have had the same issue with every phone and Bluetooth device I have ever had. Problem might be fixed with Bluetooth. 3.0
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
What is bluetooth 3.0? Is it part of the new update.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Well I was hoping for improvement with the update but no better. Oh well.

Music over Bluetooth

I'm trying to listen to music over Bluetooth on my Jawbone era headset and everything seems like someone is playing the music faster than normal. Any ideas what is causing it?

I don't know what causes it but I simply disconnect my Bluetooth headset and reconnect. I do it as much time as possible until it doesn't happen again. It doesn't happen very often so that's good. Also you can try to unregister it from the phone and re-register the headset again. Maybe its a Bluetooth bug or something. It happens on my iPhone 4 as well.

Got it fixed. I think it was a kernel issue or something I added to the Rom.

Bluetooth Music Streaming

Does the S4 display song info when streaming to car stereos and such? mp3s and Pandora? Is this an Android limitation if not?
It did for me with pandora,stock,play music.....it was one of those three. I dont remember.

It didn't work with my Note 2, but I was streaming some from Play Music and the artist/title came through. Pretty exciting since my wife would always brag about her iPhone doing it.

Yes it does in google play music just fine.
Not in my impreza... the bluetooth on this phone has been flaky for me though...maybe I have a bad antenna or something

Subaru is a pita with Bluetooth pairing. Try deleting your old sync over voice and then add it back over voice only. Doing it through the head unit control it gets messed.

Actually, that helped. It still doesn't connect automatically (Not sure why...) but it now reliably connects every time i force it to, which is better then before. I'm hoping that someday an aosp bluetooth stack will show up and solve all my problems, but i'm not really holding my breath.

[Q] BT Bug or something else

Hi guys...
Start using S4, and I noticed this little bug?
When i paired with the radio in the car, i need always to select Media Audio.
If I turn on them off, Media Audio, is not select.... it's a little boring, always need to go to settings..
Any one is having the same issue?
I'm using the last stock UK ROM.
This didn't happen with S3...
Thx
Sent from my S4 Tapatalk 2
Yes and it's dead annoying because everytime I turn my engine on I have to turn s4 BT off then back on and select stereo.

Same here. Although sometimes I notice I has connected media aswell .

I have +- resolved the problem
Play store, and install this app
Bluetooth Auto Connect....
simple and it works.

mhl adapter question.??

hello to all
being that the mhl cable won't work on s7 edge does anybody knows if this would work before i buy one=
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Belkin-Mira...26031c3460c4f&pid=100507&rk=1&rkt=1&#shpCntId
From my understanding mhl is not enabled in s7. Mirrorcasting should work though to stream video and audio.
Sent from my SM-G935T using XDA-Developers mobile app
I hate that it seems like current Android OS doesn't support MHL. This is one of the reason I kept my iPhone. Its a bad idea to have to use WIFI to stream a video and then have to use it to cast a video at the same time.
What are you looking to do?

Would the Samsung micro usb to hdmi adapter do the job?
Sent from my SM-G935T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
nope it is not supported on the edge 7 i still have my old one from the galaxy s5 no go
well the Belkin Miracast Video Adapter HDMI For Android or Windows came today works fine with my s7 edge and my dell laptop and tablet so i guess no need for a mhl cable adapter. very happy camper today
Chromecast is a nice cheap option as well.
