Hey guys, just looking for some tips or general advice about this topic. I'd posted in another forum but I wasn't getting much of a response, so I'll try here!
I have the Samsung Galaxy S3, love the phone, but have done my research and sadly, Android devices aren't always good friends with USB-ready car stereos. I tried it before, no recognition, no nothing. So, after updating to Jelly Bean 4.1, and being terribly OCD about these things, I tried again. I plug my phone into my in-dash stereo via USB, and tada! Give it a few seconds, and it'll play files that are in my Music folder. Great! So here's the thing; if it's reading files from the phone itself, do you think there's any way to get it to read my SDcard instead? I really wanted to get a 32GB SDcard so I can throw my whole iPod on it, and be able to use my phone as my media device as well, but I'm not sure if that's possible at this point.
Keep in mind that I can't just choose files to play; it plays automatically. If I choose a file, it just plays through the phone speakers. So has anybody else played around with this yet? Tips are appreciated! Thanks!
