lemarin Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 In my GT500 2011, I have the base shaker 500. I do have an IPhone 4 as cell phone. Its easy to do Bluetooth streaming through the shaker, but is it possible to browse through my iPhone music folder directly on the radio head unit ? Right now ifs easy to skip the song, but I cant see the title on the radio screen. Also I try to read my text messages through the Sync function, but the radio is showing that my phone is not compatible with this function ? If the IPhone is not compatible, which phone is compatible ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUSTANG Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 neither my blackberry or Android are compatible. One would think these as well as the Iphone would be, SO I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaZ Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 The song title doesn't come through on my Android either. All other functionality seems there though. I have a DroidX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the IPhone is not compatible, which phone is compatible ? My HTC Desire plays blutooth audio fine. Text to voice is not available in Canada. Many sync features are crippled in Canada due to CTRC/French regulations. Quebec is screwing it up for the rest of Canada "again". Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cdvision Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Once again.....and we love NPD ! loll I'd still rather see French on my box of Cheerios than Chinese. But at the rate the Chinese are buying up property in Vancouver, that could soon change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrakRat Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 I read on consumer reports that there are only a couple of phones on the verizon network that are compatible. None on the rest. My Samsung Captivate (at&t) works very well streaming music via bluetooth. I've even piped the audio from a youtube video thru the stereo via bluetooth. Still working on getting the "Destinations" app to work along with "Syncmyride". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the Droid incredible and it works great with my sync....music, you tube,texting,my phone nav., all work great.... only thing that sucks is I can't see the song I'm playing unless I look at the phone , and also can't say specific artist or song when using blue tooth....

2010KonaBlueGT Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 If the IPhone is not compatible, which phone is compatible ? Go to mysync.com and there is a list of compatible phones. I just got a Verizon (Android) Thunderbolt 4G and *it* is not text compatable. And it's the latest greatest thing to come out since sliced bread.....says the Verizon sales rep!

iamlightning03 Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 x is the only one. wheres the app already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moody03svt Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 I believe streaming audio over Bluetooth does not show song name or artist. Playing through USB does though. Once you sync either through Bluetooth or USB you can then select any playlist or artist you want. I have iPhone 4. When are they going to allow text message reading for iPhone!!

You means, just like the phone book tranfer, you can transfer your playlist / songs titls at fist (using sync), then it will display them on the head unit screen ?

I have a 2010 with the base shaker 500... Yeah, same with my Thunderbolt. I was referring to the lack of txt ability via sync. I think I only saw 1 phone on the sync compatability list that gives you txt ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
