Trouble connecting my galaxy s9+ to my kenwood car radio via usb - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Okay, basically ive posted on reddit and been advised to come here. Ive tried multible things such as different cables, different usb settings, downloading apps and so far nothing has worked. I like listening to my spotify from my phone through my car (it works with i-phone 6). When connecting it says 'reading' for ages and eventually just says 'Device NA'. Has anyone had this problem an has anyone found a solution?

Try mtp or media sharing options, or just get a cheap bluetooth to 3.5mm jack dongle and connect your phone to it. Works everytime

[Q] Mozart: Trouble with Car Audio

hey guys,
i´m writing to see if anyone has got similar problems.
i cant connect my mozart with my car audio Pioneer DEH 6100BT. my last device (t-Mobile MDA compact IV) did it very well. but the mozart cant connect.
it searches for devices but nothing happens. same problem while searching with the car audio for new device. seems like they cant "see" each other.
can anybody help?
Problem solved!
After trying different things, i just had to activate BT on my device and start then the car audio. seems that you have to keep the right order!
please close
I have had some difficulty too. Initially the Mozart connected to my car's bluetooth and worked for a few days. Then it failed to connect even after resetting the device. I also tried deleting the partnership from either or both ends and trying to make a new connection, but it refused to connect - error message simply said connection failed. I thought I would have to hard reset the Mozart and start again.
However, a few days later I connected by bluetooth to my laptop which went smoothly. After that I was able to make a new connection to the car which has since worked fine.

Bluetooth pair not working with Windows 8.1

I'm a little lost. Been trying to get this thing working and Nada. I can connect for a short few seconds. Then it disconnects. From all the videos I've seen, drivers install. But not here. It says Galaxy S5. But no driver pop up. I've uninstalled and reinstalled drivers. Still nothing. I've installed the newest Bluetooth drivers for My Dell PC and still. What's going on? Any ideas
Anyone?

What are you trying to do exactly? Mine connects and works great. It will only connect when it needs to for instance, when sending or receiving a file. It won't stay connected constantly. It's not like a Bluetooth speaker or anything.

once 8.1 hit millions of bluetooth drivers were damaged. its an obvious common problem but some say they have fixed it by installing drivers. i have the latest drivers from dell... for some reason drivers never installed on my pc for the S5. it was just there. it happened so fast. i did pair it without internet at first. but since have uninstalled an attempted to re connect so drivers will reinstall. im on the verge of picking up an external bluetooth dongle to try it out.

Hmm never knew that, I will try it out on my computer and see if it works. I do have an external dongle I can try too.
I do know that the windows drivers for the external dongles never works right so you have to download the newest from broadcom. But I lost mine so I can't try it now with Windows 8.1. Things like headphones wouldn't work without. I'm not sure if its lack of proper drivers for My Bluetooth on my Dell with Windows 8.1. Trying to find someone with an external to try. I use that every day in my car since my head unit is a dell computer.

So I think I figured it out.
It is NOT your computer. It is the phone. Either Samsung or T-Mobile tampered with the bluetooth services it is capable of. Meaning, if you try to use your phone for Bluetooth tethering, you will notice its not an option. This is because inside the /system/lib/hw folder, one of the lib files that controls Bluetooth communications with the hardware is telling other devices that is connected that only Contact Syncing and File Transfer services are available. I would attempt to flash an AOSP ROM, and check if you get any better results. If so, I may be able to hack the lib file to allow us to use more services. I remember I did this on the S4 to allow Bluetooth tethering so I hope its as easy for other services. I just need something to compare so if It works on AOSP I can compare with the lib file from there.
I do need to update the phone. Just so happy I got tethering without T-Mobile s bs telling me how much I can use. Don't wanna mess up lol.
Flashed the xtralite ROM .. Still have issues
I bought a new Bluetooth dongle. Damn 20 dollar dongle. Well it works. Not completely. Its missing the hands free portion.

Which ROM is this on?
Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
I'm currently using the ... What is it called. Its the slimmed down ROM. Like 500mb download size and you can install what addons you wish. Before I don't know what I was on. J don't really change roms a lot if its working flawless. The new cheap dongle i just got is working fine. Enough... Lol BT stereo works nice most of the time and will bring up a media player looking window with track info even using things like I heart radio. Hands free works but I don't have an on screen dialer. Have to initiate the call with the phone. Unless I'm missing a program I could use.

Pandora no longer working.

Hi, Folks, I got the Huawei Mate 10 Pro (BLA-A09), Version 8.0.0.119 and use Pandora in my Cars often.
In my Cars, I got the Pioneer AVIC-7200NEX.
Until recently, I was able to connect to the Pioneer easily, got the Songs on the Screen, can sort through Stations, got the Art on Screen, etc.
Not anymore. The Huawei will connect via BlueTooth, runs the Phone, etc. Just not Pandora.
Tried it on both Cars. same result. Unable to connect. The Phone is paired, just won't talk to Pandora.
What I've done so far:
Clear Cache, perform Disk cleanup.
Re-set Network settings.
Remove all BlueTooth devices from the Car and the Phone.
Re-paired.
Un-install Pandora, reinstall it.
I'm ready to fire up my old trusty Samsung Galaxy S6 again.
Anyone?

I have the same model, and have issues occasionally with connectivity with Ford Sync, and a Sony head unit also. Rebooting and /or re-pairing does the trick for me.
Since 119 just rolled out, did it work with 112? No mention of bluetooth changes with 119, but it also wasn't supposed to break the camera. So who knows? There is a thread with firmwares for this variant in the ROM's section I believe. You could downgrade to 112, which is a pretty drastic step. Pandora updates frequently, this could also have caused issues. Look for older versions online. Shouldn't be too hard to find the APK's. This would be what I would try next. You have tried most everything else at this point.

Thanks for the reply. No, the new update (C567patch01) didn't do anything. Everything esle is working fine, I can still use Pandora through Blue tooth Audio, just can't control it anymore, like selecting stations, thumb up or down, etc.
Very annoying. This Phone was working really well until this happened.
I don't think I'm ready to downgrade to an older Firmware just yet. Perhaps I'll so a re-set next.

Android Auto & Mirror Link compatibility

I can't get Android Auto or Mirror Link to work on my Skoda Kodiaq, it's not the car as all other phones work with it. I have tried using the stock cable and other cables, when i connect it, the car recognises something is connected and the phone asks me what to do with the USB connection (charge only, transfer files or photos) and i've tried all of them. The car eventually gives up and says the phone is not compatible, something i used to get with my OnePlus 3t as it didn't support Mirror Link but it would work instantly on Android Auto.
I have read online that there were issues with Android Auto on previous phone models but the manufacturer were looking to get this fixed in this phone. If it was a cheap phone i'd probably just leave it, as i did with Mirror Link on the OnePlus, but for a phone they are pushing at a crazy price and saying is premium, they have work to do. Has anyone figured out any fixes for this, or managed to get it to work on their car?
I've got the same problem with my huawei mate 20 pro and Dynavin 7 ce in Tuareg.
Very annoying thing. Any solution someone?
I have a 4 week old T-Roc and Android Auto works fine on mine, I can't quite remember what options I had to allow on the phone but it didn't work straight out the box but works fine now with Google Maps, Waze and Spotify.
There was a bug with some cars and newer android versions. I have to enable USB debugging on my phone for android auto to work. Can't explain why.
Ive been using it for a few days and have no issues with Google map, listening to music or making calls or sending texts using voice.
Does anyone know how to stop it asking what you want to do everytime you plug in the usb in the car? Very annoying.

Anyone else having bluetooth issues?

I haven't used bluetooth much on this phone yet, so I don't know if this is device specific or a general problem. Anyway, my phone pairs with my car bluetooth dongle and works normally the first time, but when it's already paired it just won't connect, no matter what. It works again if I unpair it and pair it again, but that's not very convenient...
Has anyone else noticed this kind of behavior and is there a fix for it?
Try clearing the system cache and a network reset.
Well, I don't know what happened or changed but today it just worked... Weird.
Ah, turns out with this phone, I just need to wait until the dongle is properly initialized before trying to connect, otherwise it just gives up and won't even try again.
With my old Huawei, I could do it straight away and it would connect when it's done...

Try in safe mode. May have a 3rd party app conflict.
Could also be a coincidence and the crappy dongle is giving up.
It's a cheap eBay bought one that renders an mp3 file on the fly so the car stereo can play it like normal flash storage. My wife's Xiaomi also had some issues connecting to it yesterday, and today as I was driving music stopped several times and the stereo said "USB format incompatible", then skipped to the next track and continued. I'm planning on installing an Aux input into the car soon so I can plug a better bluetooth receiver into that, so hopefully that'll solve the problem.
