1) it keeps overwriting my bluetooth ( i need the charging from the cable)
2) it dodsn't allow me to play from my rocket player but uses some system srevice that indexes my music in the background?
How do I get rocket player and google maps to speak through my USB cord,OR my bluetooth?

It is kind of weird thing I am trying to do but I am sure it is not impossible. Just looking for ways if anybody has already tried before might save my time and afforts.
At work I've PC with internet but without bluetooth, and a Galaxy S3 without data plan! I want to play music (online music streaming sites) on my PC, have that music (from audio out jack on PC) to Galaxy S3 (hope it will go to mic in if I use male to male aux cable?) and then an App that sends that incoming music stream to bluetooth audio output of GS3 and then listen to it on my sony stereo bluetooth headset!
Sounds odd right? The thing is I can not buy & plug in bluetooth dongle to my work PC and I can not afford the data plan as of now.
So looking forward to all ideas!
Thanks.
Hi,
Many cars have a USB socket into which the driver / passenger can plug their MP3 devices and listen to music through the car's audio system. Can an Android phone redirect its sound to the car's USB, like it does for Bluetooth (if the car has one)?
I know this does not happen by default. But for cars that do not have BT, it would be useful if there was some application / hack which allowed me to do phone calls and listen to any media (including directions from a navigation system) by plugging the Android phone into the USB.
Theoretically, I can imagine some piece of software (not sure if an Android app can do that) that would represent itself to the car's audio system as an mp3 player, capture all audio-out of the phone, and play it as a single (continuous) mp3. When the phone does not produce any audio, it would just put silence into the generated mp3.
Thanks,
Shlomy
** Edit: Simple solution found. I have an AUX port next to the USB port in the car. Connecting the phone's earphone socket to AUX in the car (with a standard 3.5 cable) does the same thing that I wanted.
First I will explain my set-up:
- Galaxy S 3 Intl. with CM11 snapshot
- USB Audio Patcher (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48966264&postcount=334)
- Fiio E07K with a USB OTG cable
Now I use this for my music (I use Poweramp as music player). Unfortunately, I can not really use this on-the-go because if the USB connector moves around, Poweramp (or android itself?) thinks the DAC disconnected and stops playing music (and if I press play, it will play it through the speakers if I don't reconnect the DAC).
The DAC itself isn't actually disconnected though. I am wondering if I can force music to always play through USB, regardless if Android thinks the cable is attached or not.
I also seem to have a problem where sometimes it makes crackling noises. Could this be because of an unstable connection too? Most of the time, when I reconnect the cable it's fine again.
I have an Android Galaxy S5 that keeps defaulting to some background USB service on my Android, in my Toyota, I would like to keep it to bluetooth OR use the USB but have the music player on my Android play through a foreground music player.
Guys,
Quick question, when i connect my iphone it will charge buy not play my music from my phone.

You can't output music over USB, you could (if your phone supports it) put the phone into USB storage mode and browse it like it was a memory stick and play music via an app on the headunit. Alternatively you can stream music via BT or you can out put from the headphone jack (if equipped) to the Aux Input of the headunit.
