how to use Note 5 and bluetooth speaker in a car with aux-in but not bluetooth

[badkitties]

my car's factory navigation/stereo only has the aux-input for audio. (via the Note 5's headphone jack) It doesn't have Bluetooth capability.

I plan to get a visor-mounted Bluetooth speakerphone.

If I'm using the Bluetooth speakerphone, will I still be able to get audio from the Note 5's headphone jack?

When a call comes in and I start talking on the Bluetooth speakerphone, will the audio be muted from the headphone jack?

Thanks!

You should be able to use both - bluetooth for phone audio and headphone jack for media audio. When you connect to bluetooth just specify you only want to connect for phone audio.

Yes this will work fine for you. So will something like this (if you don't want to have to use an audio cable into the phone each time you get in your car): http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004N...ag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU4932516

I meant to add - the default profiles for the devices you purchase should have your phone doing what you want to automatically (calls through the use tooth speaker and media through the alternate device )

I know it's all opinion (and you know what they say about opinions), but I wouldn't recommend the product linked above. FM modulation doesn't do great things for audio quality.
I've had this for over 2 years now and it's been fantastic: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009N...ag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU4932621

Ahh, yeah. I should have been clearer, I use a product similar to the one linked above, but only for its 2.1A charger and aux output over Bluetooth in my car. FM transceivers SUCK.
