Music via USB in NX
Hey folks! So, previous had an Iphone which was detected via USB no problem to play music. I've recently switched over to Samsung Galaxy S7 and seems my only option is Bluetooth to play my tunes as it won't detect via USB. I also tried to put some MP3s on a flash drive which I formatted FAT32, and although it enables the USB option in the source options, doesn't seem to load the music / playlist. I didn't create any folders or anything and copied all of the MP3 directly on the root of the drive.... any tips or ideas on what I'm doing wrong here? Anyone else use an Android device and has alternative options to play music aside from Bluetooth? Thanks!

The USB option works great for me. I use a PC to rip music files from CDs, organize the music files into folders, modify the titles to suit (if needed), and load the result on a thumb drive. It is then easy to browse through the selections using the screen and pad in my NX. If left alone, the system plays the files in the order set up on the thumb drive.

How many songs do you have copied on the USB drive? I wonder if there is a limit to how many files can be contained within a single directory and if you have exceeded it by not using folders?
As a last solution, Bluetooth audio with my Galaxy S7 (SM-G930W8 on Android 6.0.1) using the stock Samsung Music app works flawlessly with the vehicle for browsing through media, instant connection when starting-up and all audio controls.

Interesting find! I've been using Google Maps for years and never knew that feature existed. Although, it would annoying to get a "call" through the car for guidance. Also, the guidance would have to set to come on earlier to account for the lag in the phone sending a "call", the NX receiving it and then answering the call to hear the guidance directions.
