Help with iphone and bluetooth?
 
I have done a search and could not find the answer. I have my phone part of the iphone working fine with the bluetooth but not the music. I need to know what I am doing wrong.

I usually use the USB cord but would like to use the bluetooth for short trips.

You've gone through the USB menu to find the Bluetooth set-up correct? You will then look for GMusicConnect on the iPhone and send the music through Bluetooth.

The iPhone will default to Bluetooth, so you will have to change it when you plug it into the USB.

Thanks for the tip. Finally got it going but it was odd how it worked out. Tried everything and nothing worked. Decided to hell with it and and broke out my old ipod mini and figured I would just leave it plugged in to the USB. While trying it out I was fooling with the iphone and the stereo and presto, GMusicConnect finally showed up in the bluetooth menu.

For some odd reason, my iPhone loses the Bluetooth connection from time to time with my car. ???

Cool! Glad you were able to get it working!! :thumbup:

It is odd because the settings aren't with the rest of the car's settings under config. Here's how I think I got to it the few times I've done it.

First, open your iphone settings / general / bluetooth (so that it's discoverable)
Next click the Aux button (bottom of #1 button) until Aux is displayed.
THEN click Menu while 'Aux Input' is displayed.
That will cause you to get that Bluetooth radio / GMusic menu where you can pair it with the iPhone.

Once done, you'll actually have TWO pairings between your car and iphone. One will be for the phone and named whatever you chose, the other will be for the music and called GMusicConnect.

I'm not 100% sure on this, but from what I could tell, the Gmusic will stay paired as long as you stay on Aux on your head unit. If you switch bands (to listen to the radio, for example), you'll have to pair the Gmusic portion again. None of this affects the BT phone pairing, which should stay permanently, as long as you don't turn off BT in your phone.

Thats right, it says this in the manual.

Are you sure on this? From what I understand, Stereo Bluetooth is not supported in the Camaro.

Levi550 03-31-2010 08:59 PM
Absolutely can pair via bluetooth and stream music at least with a 2SS. It is in the manual...the system will allow up to 5 devices.

One thing I noticed, is that in order to get BlueTooth Music Streaming, it still needs to be connected to the Cable. then you can Link the radio to the iPhone.
