Question 2010 G37X withOUT Nav, (ONLY Bluetooth CALLING) - Which bluetooth adapter?

Hello there,

I got a 2010 G37X without the navigation. The bluetooth on the car is for phone calls only.

I want to play music from my phone through bluetooth.

I read a bunch of forms that talk about some bluetooth devices that can plug into your USB port.

I am wondering who has a 2010 G37x and had one of these adapters to work. It would be great to know the specific product model, and if you need a special adapter.

Regards,

Which usb bluetooth will work?

Can you provide a link or a product name? I looked at Carpro, and they said the USB connection will not work with their product.

I would be interested in a USB adapter, I wasn't able to find any. Can you share?

The only options I found are the following :

- GROM BT3https://gromaudio.com/store/bt3_adap...emulation.html
- USA SPEC BT45-INFI https://www.usaspec.com/p-318-bt45-infi.aspx
- GROM Wirelinq (not Bluetooth but USB connection for Android) https://gromaudio.com/store/accessor...converter.html

Solution found

Hello everyone, here is the solution I found:

NAXA Nab-4003 Bluetooth Audio Adapter for USB Connectors

Amazon link below.
it is usb that connects to your car USB slow and, bluetooth yo yout phone. The car plays through the aux setting. There is a small lag when hit play or switch songs on your phone, but it is 100 percent worth it. It looks like that the usb writes the song on its drive and the car thinks it's a song on a hard drive. this is just me guessing how it works.

over all, you get the bluetooth option for music off your phone, so spotify, youtube est. Works on this. You can't control the phone bluetooth from the car. At least I haven't figured it out yet. I will post photos tomorrow. Here is the Amazon link. Its 24 Canadian after tax, so probably 18 us dollars.

Amazon Amazon

I got a cheap bluetooth adapter, got an RCA male to 3.5mm female adapter, a short micro usb usb cable, and a cigarette lighter charger and hooked it all up in the center console. Works perfect for me, adapter automatically turns on as soon as it gets power and turns off when you disconnect. It always connects automatically and the sound quality is good. This is the adapter I got:

I got this adapter because it came with an option to not have a mic, which I liked since it would be muffled anyway in the center console and because on iPhone things like siri wont let you switch microphones.

MrBarley - YES the USB Naxa bluetooth it is good!!

You can even use the steering wheel to up/down to change songs.

Only thing is, there is a slight delay when you press play on your phone and when you hear the music, but once the music is playing you can't tell.

I bought another one, just in case I loose the USB Naxa bluetooth.

I can't find any other product like it.

mahmoudg37s the 3.5mm jack bluetooth product you are referring to will not work on the USB only connections.

The NAXA is the way to go.

I bought the NAXA a few days ago. It's pretty bad to be honest.

- Sound comes out from the phone with a very long delay.
It results in a long gap when changing songs and when listening to Google Maps directions, the sounds arrives so late that you can easily miss an exit.

- Sound skips a lot, similar to the skipping of an old CD player when you do jumping jacks with it.

- No text/song info on the screen

It looks funny driving around in a shiny luxury car with skipping bluetooth sound, very ghetto.

I don't recommend it and will look for other solution, possibly a GROM BT3 or Vline2.
