When I try to charge (in a car) the phone and play music at the same time - it fails. The phone says that sd card is busy even though connection type is set to "charge only". But everything is ok when charging with normal charger at home.. Does anybody know if this can be fixed?

Hello. Just got my S2 a few days ago and I am still on stock F/W 2.6.35.7-19100BOK2
Now I an trying to connect the phone to my head unit (Pioneer AVH04100) via USB but no matter what I do the S2 will not mount the external Micro SD card.
I have gone into the phones settings and set up as Mass Storage but still no luck and I get the message " reading format" on my head unit but it stays like that for a few minutes then it will go to the S2's internal memory so I cant really browse any files as my Music is on the External Micro SD. Any help? Thanks
That maybe because your ICE is not compatible with android. It run on windows

MMmmm. Could be I suppose but why did it connect to the internal storage?
I am so confused as to all of this and I am new to android and this is what happened with me
The story annoyed so much it took me 3 hard reset until I figured out the source of my problem
My story began when i noticed how poorly my sg2sounds on my car stereo using a 3.5mm cable so I decided to plug into the car stereo via usb as that will enhance the playing music on my stereo via usb cable.
Anyhow I bought the titantium pro from the market and ran the batch that moves all user app to sd and once I do that I noticed that my car stereo does not recgonize the gnote as a storage device and also I noticed the phone truns off once I unplug the usb cable.
So when i used I thought about moving all apps back to internal memory via titanium and my problem was solved.
Can someone shed some light on why this is happening and how to solve it, as I would like to be able to move my apps to sd card via titanium without affecting the phone's connection via usb
Check out "Multi Mount SD-Card Lite" https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rafoid.multimountsdcard.widget.free
Maybe this would help as your phone needs to unmount the sdcard from phone when connected to PC our car stereo. Therefore any apps on sdcard will stop functioning.
You need root for the above app to work.

Although Titaniun can move apps to external-SD not all apps are designed to be used on an external-SD card and therefore can either be not recognized or cause problems.Sometimes they say if its movable or not in the details of the app in the market.
Hi,
Has anyone tried the SGS3 with an Alpine iDA-X305 car head unit. It supposedly supports MTP but I can't get mine to recognise my s3.
Thanks

I've tried with my Alpine iDA-X100, which is also meant to support mtp according to the manual, but it's not recognised.
Have tried a workaround to mount external sd card as mass storage (see post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27282116#post27282116) so it sees it as a usb drive, but no luck with that either unfortunately. I think the problem could be with the S3, as the iDA-X100 works ok with ext. sd card in my friend's HTC Desire connected in mass storage mode.
You don't want to use Bluetooth? I find playing the media from the phone far more flexible.

I have a new 2012 BMW 335i with the advanced bluetooth usb option and premium sound package. I do not have NAV.
My trouble is finding the music stored on the microSD card in the phone when plugged into the USB input for the BMW. I can have the phone "sync" to the car by putting it into PCSync mode but when I browse the file directory with the car I cannot find the music on the microSD card.
My friends iPhone 4S with the white apple cable works great. Music, album art, the whole enchilada .
Anybody have any ideas?
TIA

What happens when you connect the phone? Does the phone prompt you to enable the hard drive mode? If not I would try just pairing the phone via Bluetooth and see how it goes there. I don't have a BMW but I have a Genesis and everything works well with the Bluetooth pairing.
Try connecting the phone with USB debugging on (you can find it in the development options of the phone.)
Let us know more details of what is the reaction of the phone once you plug it in the car.
Also, is your music on the internal phone memory (/sdcard/ if fully stock and unmodified) or in your physical microsd card? That may have lot to do as well.

It pairs and plays via the bluetooth no problems.
The music is on the mircoSD card and not the internalHD.
I plug the phone in and it defaults to charge only. I pull down the top notification bar and change the setting to the External Hard drive... the car doesn't redognize that the phone is plugged into the USB port. I then change the setting to PCSync and then the car USB icon lights up and I can browse into the phone's directory. But the directory is not the one on the microSD it is the internal phoneHD
All the music file are located here...
/mnt/sdcard/ext_sd/music
according to ASTRO FM
my phone and card are all stock
try it as media sync
connected as a EXT HD and USB debugging selected I can find the music files on the microSD and play them just no album art. getting closer
Get a vishnu piggyback system and chip your car, do a bit of tuning and you will be having so much fun whipping around town in a 400hp beast that you would have forgotten about this little problem all together,
I wish I had a BMW.

I'm all over them. The car is still a little too new and everyone has an iphone. XDA has been the gospel when it comes to phones.
