Simple, activate the bluetooth in both devices and connect them.

Hi,
the car bluetooth must support the protocol A2DP (bluetooth stereo) otherwise no music over bluetooth. My adapter also only supports handsfree and I think headset so I also have no music in my car stereo from my X10.

Thanks, let's say the car does not support A2DP protocol, can u upgrade it through firmware?! Or does A2DP has Hardware component to it?!

Hi,
I think it depends. It might also be hardware related. You only have to consider that you normally do not need stereo for your calls so they can use cheap mono chips for their bluetooth receiver.

I remember i could connect it to answer calls but could not make music play :/

Is there an app that will let you play music from your phone on your car using a bluetooth connection? Like is there a way to play all phone audio on your car via bluetooth rather than just call audio?

No app can change this, the thing is your car stereo has to support the A2DP bluetooth profile, if you do not have a "bluetooth audio" option and only "telephone" on your car stereo then it only supports the "headset" profile, for example I have a pioneer bt-8000 car stereo, it supports both a2dp and headset profiles, I set my car stereo to "bt audio" then all audio OTHER than phone audio comes through car stereo, then if a call is initiated inbound or outbound, the car stereo automatically switches to phone, then when disconnected back to bt audio

I did however forget one way that this could be possible without the A2DP profile, not sure if this exists for our phone, but a hack could be made on the phone that would force all audio through the headset profile on the phone itself, but like I said, I haven't seen this hack for our phones

There's an app in the Market called Super Bt Mono Froyo that does exactly that - routes all audio from phone to Bluetooth device using headset profile. The quality pretty much sucks for music though - kinda like if you'd listen to music over GSM phone connection. I personally use it for navigation prompts when riding my motorcycle. If you want decent quality - you need A2DP.
I have a Galaxy S2. I have heard that we can integrate the phone to the car system using FM frequency. Is there any software available for it? Kindly help me
the sgs2 can not be turned into a fm transmitter via an app if u meant that.
you have to connect a real fm transmitter to the phone to play music.

You can get Bluetooth FM transmitters which allow you to route phones called and music to an FM channel on your car stereo. Most of these have built-in microphones with echo cancellation to improve voice quality.
another option, would be to get a car streo which has built-in bluetooth.
One example:
If your car stereo is not bluetooth ready, you can often add bluetooth to your existing stereo by purchasing an inexpensive "Bluetooth Gateway". They typically hide in behind the stereo and plug into RCA connectors on your car stereo. If you do an Amazon search for "bluetooth gateway" you will find products, prices and reviews.
good luck.
Im getting a bluetooth sat nav and it needs my phone for data as and when it needs it. But i also stream music to my car stereo so would i be able to use them both at the same time?
Cheers
Dose anyone know?
I know that I can play music through Bluetooth on my home theater system and share a song at the same time

as many as you can pair up
you can for example stream to your car audio
meanwhile you have a Bluetooth watch, and a bluetooth headset
so when a calls comes in you can pick it up with the headset instead of car speaker, and vice versa
you can also make a phone from the caller ID wrist watch, and accept or deny a call
you can play remote control cars/boats/planes if you can pair with it
also you can use those wii like BT controllers
and also stream to stereo BT headsets
you can pair several phones together to transfer files and phone books
etc
the possibilities are endless
I have some LG HBS-700 stereo bluetooth headset, but can´t fond the way to hear FM radio through it, the radio app only shows the option to hear by wired headset (that are plugged ofcourse) or via speakers....
Haven´t try with others headset but don´t think that do any difference
Some else with the same issue ??
The fm radio needs wired headphones because it uses them as an antenna.

Just not sure if this is going to be possible. My only suggestion would be to use an app such as Tune In Radio (or any app that will stream the station you want) and then BT Mono (if needed) to get the sound out of the bluetooth headset. It streams pretty decent over 3g.
Sorry if this is obvious and doesn't help.

Exactly! And trust me, been trying this for years and one of the reasons I got Photon.
With all my other phones, they had FM App I could get BUT, technically, it was just streaming (in mono) and not all stations were available. You still could not use BT, but speaker was available! Pandora was my new savior. EVO 4G the same.
Photon has build in FM receiver. Your not listing to streaming, you get a radio station just like your home receiver BUT it needs help with getting strong signal, hence you still need wired, but you get way more stations.
I have though, found some good stations on Pandora!
Thanks guys .. I will try it...
Also will try BlueMusic, I hear can work too
When I plug in my headphones and switch to stereo, it does not play music through the connected Bluetooth speaker.
Any solutions?
I guess it's because you need ear phones with cable that acts as an antenna

I have mentioned above that I plugged them in but then when I connect to my Bluetooth speaker it does not work; either plays through headphones or the phone's speaker.
You are correct it only plays music through headset or phone speakers, but doesnt through bluetooth

There has to be a way since it is possible on other phones
That's strange, it's possible for my "Z3 and my z3 tab to play fm in Bluetooth speakers. Maybe try switching to loudspeaker first then switch back to headset on the fm app

When I connect to Bluetooth speakers, they play music on everything, but then I open radio and it plays on headphones by default and when I switch to speaker, it does not play through the Bluetooth speakers
bump
I often get a Bluetooth crash when I use fm radio, without Bluetooth even turned on. Maybe in z5 the chip is shared between Bluetooth and radio.
Or maybe the firmware is bugged, because I never receive an error on z3 compact.
I will open a case at Sony's support.

Seems Sony messed up the apk with latest update in MM. Lets wait for a fix.
Hey Sony, how about an upgrade to the FM radio stock app that does not appear to have a Bluetooth redirect functionality. By the way my headphone jack went bad on the Z3 compact long ago but it still works as an "antenna" with headphones plugged in. I just need a way to redirect / override the headphone jack and redirect to Bluetooth. I have not found any other system tools type app to overrode and redirect to Bluetooth. Sony help! And the headphone jack on the Z3 sucks as the part fails (wears out) to quickly.
Z5 compact Bluetooth doesn't work for radio
Can only play radio thru internal speakers or wired speakers. Bluetooth doesn't transmit radio audio. Disappointing Sony!!!
