Yeah at least you guys have all that. My 08 coupe has the freaking aux cord thing for iPhone 4's....I don't have that fancy Bluetooth music and text messaging stuff ); but I have Bluetooth calling lmao
I take it you are trying to play music? Do you have Nav? The reason it only reads Ios is because ios still uses the old Ipod software for harline connections. And back when parts were designed, Ipods and mp3 players were big. Then smartphones hit over night and alot of companies are still playing catch up.
I have an Android phone and I'm able to stream music via bluetooth and make phone calls. How can I get it to display text messages on the screen?
Make note that the poster above that mentioned the text messages has a 2015. That might have been one of the small additions added to the dashboard head unit capabilities when they switched over to the Q60 naming convention or even the year previous -- they've certainly removed things over the years (aux input, like the on board hard drive based jukebox to load/rip cd's too) as well as adding the usb port and much better navigation touchscreen (I think in '10 but '11 for certain).
With my '11 coupe w/ navi ... I use the BT audio and telephony connection every day with my LG G4 and previously w/ my LG G2. Hardly ever a hiccup unless I was the one confusing it with my gf's device and mine trying to pair at the same time, it worked itself out after a couple of minutes and in the meantime, we just listened to the USB source audio.
My android works over bluetooth but there's always been some feedback during music playback. I got an ipod touch off of Craiglist just so I could plug it in under the armrest and forget about it. Plus I can take it to the gym as my beater so I don't have to carry around my phone.
