Bluetooth streaming v70 2011 rdesign

Hello, is it possible to stream media via bluetooth. Ive got an android and when connected to car phone works but it wont media via bluetooth. Ive read various phone forums that scribe a fix provided the car can do streaming. Has ne managed it on p3?

I believe that the media stream is only on the facelift P3, it did not work on my 2010 but is on my 2014.

Hi, thank you for the reply, im sure when i first connected my phone it did offer both call and media until i connected other devices to my phone..maybe i was wrong. Thanks again

I think there's been a thread on this before. I just use an aux cable if I want to stream, and the bluetooth does the phone.

Your car radio could have to many phones stored on it and not picking yours up. See if there's a setting to delete them all then try reconnecting.

Thanks for the replies. Ive used an aux cable but an aux cable but find it annoying as im in and out of car a lot. Also its the only phone connected..ive read for streaming cars needs to support a2dp (i think) and cant find out if mine does so as wondering if anyones suceeded on 2011 my

Get something like THIS on eBay & use the Aux socket to get the sound to your stereo.

Recommended by a member on here, I have one and it works perfectly.

The other member was me and they are even cheaper now at £1.26 including postage from China!!!

I never could get it to work with a Windows phone but it works a treat with both my Iphone and the other half's Android.

As far as I know, Bluetooth streaming came with Sensus. In these models, that's the same as model year 2012. When the bigger display was introduced.

OK, Since it was a very cheap buy, I bought one. But although my S5 Galaxy phone pairs with the bluetooth in the USB, all I get on the Media selection is an instruction to "Connect USB" so the car isn't seeing it. I tried using the jack to jack connection cable in the Aux socket but the car doesn't seem to see that either. It's a 2012 with Sensus, so should these connection work? I do note that the phone also pairs directly to the car for phone, which works just fine, and media, which doesn't seem to do anything. Am I doing something wrong? This area of usage doesn't seem to be covered very much in the handbook. It's not a matter of acute urgency but does anyone have any advice?
