Side Benefit of new S6 - SMS/Text announce works with Chrylser UConnect

[hhmorgan]

Haven't had this working since pre-Samsung smartphone days on my Dodge/Chrylser vehicles. Tried S3, S4 and S5 and no-go.

Paired new S6 to the system and sent a text message - now it (car) displays the View or Listen function on the Vehicles Nav/Info display.

Looks like Samsung needed to work out it's MAPI interface and they finally got it working! Finally!!

Nice to know but I prefer to use my phone rather than the vehicle infotainment system simply because that way I'm doing everything from 1 device rather than 2

Nice. That "no number available" is tiring.

I just got a Note 4 with lollipop. I wonder if they have the Bluetooth stack fixed in it.
