Iphone bluetooth audio streaming

I have a 2011 Subaru Outback with the factory stereo. Bluetooth audio works great for me for calls and Siri. But I have yet to discover how streaming music works. I didn't think it was supported by my stereo at first, but then yesterday, out of the blue, my music app displayed the AirTunes logo and I could see the "CAR_MEDIA" name of my stereo listed there. I tried to select it and it disappeared and I haven't seen it since. Anyone else have this problem or know how to get music to stream through bluetooth?

If the system supports A2DP audio, then it should work just fine. Depending on the system, you may not be able to control the music playback from the head unit, but it should stream. Check the manual for the stereo system.

Bluetooth Audio Streaming Not Working - Posts Started Many Months Ago, No Solution Provided

Hello!
I would like to join the group of those who experience re-connecting issues of Audio Streaming Bluetooth function. I have reviewed posts on several forums and I see the issue is not resolved. Just for back up - neither manual nor automatic (other than re-booting the phone each time) re-connection works with: two Mercedes-Benz cars, Alpine stereo, Sony stereo and Blackberry Music Gate device.
It did work before upgrade to 10.2.1.3247 for Q10.
It does work with my old 9700.
It does work with my wife's and doughter's iPhones.
It does not work with the state-of-the-art Q10.
I think it is both annoying and should be embarrasing for BB. I see the posts showing up for many months now and no solution is provided yet. This is very basic functionality. I, actually, regret I bought Q10.
Any chance BB would fix it?
Is there anything new I missed?
Pawel

Well, good to hear.
For me the problems started with the latest updates...
I switched on another Q10 that I pulled out from the drawer, but did not allow updates. Everything works properly. But I cannot use many functionalities, including BlackBerry World as it asks for the OS update.
So the issue stays...

Mercedes command + iPhone 4 = audio streaming?

Hi there apple,
I was just wondering about streaming audio over bluetooth to mercedes and I couldn't find any good solution for that. I've got Mercedes-Benz SL with NTG 2.5 and iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.3. Since iPhone bluetooth authentication on mercedes is not a big deal Im wondering is there any "normal" way to provide iPod music over bluetooth to mercedes audio using airplay or anything else.
What I mean is that if I can stream phone conversation to audio why can't I stream music? Has anyone tried streaming iPod audio to mercedes car?
Regards,

Nope, but i noticed few cool things. Well first of all if I use voice notes in car connected to MB via bluetooth, it ueses Mercedes microphone and Mercedes speakers. It works the same for some applications like teamspeak3 app from appstore. It works automaticly and it's convenient!
But I still don't understand why can't I stream music that way?

IPhone5 iOS 7 and 2010 fg xr6 Bluetooth audio streaming won't work

Is vehicle end designed to stream stereo and if so have you checked for an update to vehicle system ( 2010 is along time back in communications timeline)
.iOS 7 is 2013 technology

Touchpad - Bluetooth audio streaming works Preware Apps, not App store Apps

Hi,
I'm having an issue with any applications I've installed through the App store not streaming over bluetooth.
Any app installed with Preware streams audio just fine.
I haven't tried resetting the touchpad to factory condition..
It's mainly an issue since Grooveshark seems to have been added to the App store and I (stupidly) updated my preware app to the app store one.
No, this is not the only app that doesn't stream over bluetooth.
I am streaming to my Pioneer VSX 821 K.
Anyone have any experience with this issue?
Anyone resolve this issue before?
I tried searching the forums for bluetooth type posts but didn't see anything related.
Thanks
Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

FYI, if you've opened the Shazam app, it messes up the bluetooth playback with Pandora (maybe other apps too) you have to close the app completely in order to restore normal audio.
So you might want to close all apps competing for the audio playback, and only do one at a time. Apple and audio players have messed up playback on the iPhone.
Does Google Maps audio work over the bluetooth connection?
Is this a built-in bluetooth or is it an add-on system?

Bluetooth Audio Streaming Bug on the new MBP with Retina Display?

Hi,
today i got my new MacBook Pro with Retina Display. I am using Monsters Clarity HD Model One as speakers for my computer and have the new Bluetooth-Module called "Streamcast". This Module is APT-X and AAC compatible and has a really great quality. Normally...
But with the new MBP i can only stream the Audio via SBT (AD2P) what is a much worse quality. On my old MacBook Pro 13" AAC and APT-X was working very well.
Is that already a known issue? What can i do in this case?
Thanks a lot,
Rene

so return it for another one if its within the 14 day return policy. If not, bring it in for repair.

Stream7 - bluetooth audio streaming goes off when i turn the display off!

I have a hp stream 7 that is connected via bluetooth to my loudspeakers.
Everything is fine until the display turns off or i press the power butten to turn off the display.
When i turn on the display(press power button) the sound starts and play normally.
I can't find any option to turn off this behaviour in w8.1. Can you help?

The microsoft music player that is on the tiles metro section of windows supports music playback when the connected standby is activated. Unfortunatly if you are looking to go any further than this you will need to change over all your power control settings to that of a laptop.
I instructed another user of it in this post here, http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Windows-Tablets/Stream-7-Can-t-Turn-off-screen-without-putting-tablet-i...

Pioneer FH-8000BT Car Radio & iPhone OS 3.1/3.1.2 Bluetooth Audio Issue

I have a Pioneer FH-8000BT Car Deck that has Bluetooth (http://bit.ly/4c7ofq).
I have an iPhone 3GS 32GB unit that came with iPhone OS 3.0 on it with Firmware 04.26.08.
I upgraded to iPhone OS 3.01 when it came out and all was fine (the baseband was unchanged)
I upgraded to iPhone OS 3.1 while keeping Baseband at 04.26.08 using methods that shouldn't be discussed, and while the upgrade went perfectly fine, my audio between the deck and the phone now gets garbled for both me and the person on the other end. The audio compression issue occurs every 30 seconds - 2 minutes and lasts for about 5 -15 seconds and repeats itself during the call. Kind of annoying right? You bet! I have to put the phone on speakerphone to talk to someone. I won’t be able to do that much longer because as of October 26th that will be against the law here in Ontario. All devices in the car must be hands free.
Recently, I upgraded to iPhone OS 3.1.2 and upgraded the Firmware to 05.11.07 to see if it would make a difference and it made no difference - I still had BT compression issues.
I have tried with another iPhone (a 3G model) running 3.0 -> No problems with BT audio compression there...
I've even swapped out the deck with another one - but I have yet to attempt a 3.1 or higher OS.
Pioneer told me that they were hearing reports about this deck with the iPhone, but they never heard about the technical details I gave them. No word about a firmware upgrade, or a fix for this from them.
I've had my phone swapped out at the Apple Store here in Toronto, and I had OS 3.0 on it which I don't think I'll be upgrading at this point because of the audio issues. So, I am stuck at OS 3.0. Unfortunately some Apps I use are now becoming a minimum requirement of OS 3.1 - par for the course I guess?
I'm very curious what changed in OS 3.1 since 3.0/3.0.1 for the bluetooth...
Does anyone know?
Just wondering if anyone else out there has this deck and has a problem?

You can get the Bluetooth Audio streaming working? I can't get that to sync up properly. sigh ...
I called Apple and they documented everything for me ... Case # 140385552
If you can do a test call for me that would be amazing! Just keep talking ... you should be able to hear the audio compression problem (and so should the person you're talking to) ...
Glad to hear there's someone out there who has the same deck as I do.
Also find out if your callers hear your alternator whine when you drive ---
I get that problem too but that's wiring / deck related. A ferrite core should solve it but I can't be bothered at the moment.
You using the usb cable at all or using bluetooth to stream?
I'm using the USB cable. I can get the audio to pause and play using USB cable.
Again, I'm unsuccessful with the BT Audio Streaming part.

Iphone 4gs slow audio streaming

Hi all,
I just got my 4s a few weeks ago. I listen to a radio show via the Iheartradio app. I have been getting constant lag. Sometimes I can't even listen because of the constant pausing. I am listening to the show in the same location at the same time everyday and I had no problems listening with my 3gs. .
I turn off all apps when I'm listening and it hasn't helped.
If anyone has some suggestions, I would love to hear them.

I have the same issue, im using command NTG 4 which only supports bluetooth connection not bluetooth audio streaming, but the system in my CLS mercedes which is NTG 4.5 command online that supports bluetooth streaming as well.
There is no way to stream audio from the phone to the Command NTG4

IPhone 4S and iPhone 5 Running iOS 6.0.1 and A2DP audio streaming on a 2012 Lexus RX350 (Factory Car Stereo)

Hello Everyone,
Before the release of iOS6 and the iPhone 5, I was able to use the A2DP audio streaming on my car no problems and I was really a happy camper, when upgraded my iPhone 4S to the iPhone 5 (Which came already with iOS6) that funtionality did not work any more, I reconnected my iPhone 4s running iOS 5.1.1 and worked like a charm, then I thought my brand new iPhone has bluetooth problem , that same night (Release data iPhone 5 and iOS 6), I update my iPhone 4S and prepare it to give it to my wife, then It occured to me to go and test the phone back on the car but now Running iOS 6 and "viola", the phone did not stream audio via A2DP. So yesterday Apple Release a minor update for iOS (6.0.1) and after reading the release notes (which it did not say anything Bluetooth enhancements) and updating my iPhone, went and try to test again the phone and did not work. (No A2DP audio streaming), Definatelly there is a problem, I called iOS Tech support and open a Case. Here are the screenshots for the iphone and car stereo.
Iphone:
Car Stereo:
Phone (Voice Feature) works fine with the car.
This happens when trying to Connect the phone manually.
If anyone had this problem in the past and solved, please let us know.
Thanks
Rommel J. Jimenez

I had this problem with my iPhone 4 after upgrading to ios 6.0 (10A403). I called apple support and was given a fix for my problem. The Apple support rep had me do a reset on my Iphone. The iPhone then worked with streaming music through bluetooth to my Lexus and also now works with the usb tether. I did not have to delete the pairing, but that certainly wont hurt.

IPhone 5 Bluetooth Audio not working with stock Toyota radio

I have a 2010 Toyota 4Runner Limited which has the premimum JBL radio in it. Up until recently, I have had an iPhone 4 which worked well with both hands free phone features, along with Bluetooth Audio so I can stream my music from iTunes or Amazon Cloud Players. I dont use the feature all the time, so I am not sure when it stopped working (after upgrading to IOS6 or upgrading to an iPhone 5) but bluetooth audio no longer works. I can still use the bluetooth phone features, but if I go to the bluetooth music tab on my stereo, it states that the portable player is not connected. Siri also works fine through bluetooth, as it it can read my text messages, ask and answer questions through the car stereo, though I cannot make an outgoing call with Siri because after it shuts off siri and starts to dial, my stereo disconnects.
I know Apple updated the bluetooth, but you would think the new version would be backwards compatible, right? Is there a plan from Apple to fix this, because I am sure Toyota isnt going to update the firmware on their stereos just to fix an issue with one phone...

Actually, as an update, mine is now working (the BlueTooth Audio part, Siri still cannot place calls).
I have done this on my first (now smashed) iPhone 5 and my new iPhone 5. It takes a lot of trial and error, but you can get it to work.
First thing is with the iPhone 4, all I had to do was connect the phone in the phone connect screen and it just worked for both. Not so with the 5. With the 5, I have to register it both in the Audo Settings> Bluetooth Audio Settings menus as well as the phone settings on the radio. I didnt know there were two different connections with two different pins. (0000 and 1212). I forget which one you have to connect first, but again, I tried it so many times both installs and it eventually worked. It may be easier to change the name of either the Phone or Bluetooh Audio name from Car Multimedia, so the iPhone can easily connect to one or the other, but I left them both with the same name. I can now play music, and when the phone rings, automatically swaps over to that one.
Play with it and you will get it to work. If I have time, i will remove it and do it again and write down the steps.

Iphone 4S bluetooth audio not working in car after however bluetooth for calls is 2011 nissan maxima

I recently upgraded from an iphone 3gs to an Iphone 4S IOs 5 i deleted the bluetooth profile from my car and paired the iphone 4s ........bluetooth calls recieving and making is no problem...however after i changed my phones the bluetooth audio feature is not working at all in my car which is an 2011 Nissan Maxima.....I check with my friends Ford Focus and it works perfectly .........I don't expect an update from Nissan.....So i hope on the next iteration of the Ios5 firmware this can be addressed..

The bluetooth streaming seems to pause regularly - called Nissan - they don't have any info on it.

IOS 8 and Bluetooth Phone and Audio Streaming Failing

I have a 2013 Nissan Pathfinder and a 2015 Nissan Leaf, both with bluetooth phone integration and audio streaming support. Both cars worked fine when I had two iPhone 5s paired to both cars and running latest iOS 7. Both phones worked in both cars and could fully integrate to make calls and also to stream audio from device to car.
When I upgraded one iPhone 5s to iOS 8 and replaced the other with an iPhone 6Plus running iOS 8, both are having problems with both cars.
1. Both gave a "failed connection" message but the phones do actually pair.
2. Both cars show a phone handset with a line through it on the in-car display which means no connection.
3. The "5 bars" cell signal indicator on the in-car display no longer shows up.
3. Outgoing calls made from phone and put through car system work fine except for some garbled audio.
4. Incoming calls make the wrong screen appear on the nissan display and can not be answered by the display on the car. Pushing the answer button on the in-car display doesn't do anything.
Lots of other tiny issues. Apple needs a fix here. I called Nissan and they said it's 100% Apple's fault.
Anyone else having issues with Nissan Bluetooth integration or any other manufacturer?

We have a 2008 Nissan Sentra - The bluetooth pairs ok. When a call comes in on my 5S or my wife's 4S the bluetooth does not do anything. The bluetooth does not ring and it does not connect to the call. The call has to be answered on the phone. Like I said, the phones are paired. You can access Siri through the bluetooth to initiate a call. Once the call is connecting, the bluetooth drops off and there is no sound. Just like when you receive a call. Apple needs to fix this. This is completely ridiculous. I WAS going to buy an iPhone 6. I will not if this is not fixed.
