Has anyone noticed a problem when switching to bluetooth audio (BTA)? The songs will play from your phone only if you use the BTA when you start up your nav. However when you do other things and want to switch to BTA your songs will not play at all...sometimes you cant even see the track listing. I've tried setting the BTA to connect from the vehicle and the device...no hope. My device is Samsung Galaxy Note II.

 

At first I wasn't going to reply since I'm an evil IP5 user, but someone should reply to this.

No, this is not normal. I can access BTA no problem, even coming from the Options Settings section. I do turn my audio off before turning the car off so I always I have to access BTA at some point.


Maybe try unpairing your phone, then turn BT off on your phone, turn it back on and then re-pair it with the car again?

 

yea tried that...I think its the android bluetooth or security...i have my phone password protected...the funny thing is Pandora works well...you can access it anytime and come back to it anytime without a problem...BTA once you switch out you can never come back to it...

 

Jay same thing happens to my Galaxy Note 2. I usually switch to radio if I'm going to do something like change playlists or albums then go back to bluetooth.

The whole bluetooth thing annoys me in the Lexus. I can't switch albums or playlists from the Nav, no album art etc.

 

no problems with the IP5. i go from pandora to spotify to videos on IG to youtube and back to pandora with ease...must be an android thing? =/

 

Oh yea that is fine...its just switching back to BTA that causes problems...Those enform apps are never a problem...hopefully the next update will fix the this issue.

 

The whole nav system is really bad...it lags, voice recognition sucks, some addresses could not be found...funny thing is that Lexus is making us buy this...they dont ship this car out without nav...they dont like the special orders for no nav units...
