Galaxy S3 Bluetooth media will not stream non-tech

Hello everyone,

I've been lurking around here for the last couple months and finally decided to post today (plan on an intro thread to my '09 PWP as well). I seem to have developed an issue with my Verizon GS3 that I cannot seem to solve. Started earlier last week, where the media will all of a sudden not stream to the car. Has been fine since late July when I got the phone.

I have gone through the typical checks (unpair/repair, delete/unpair/repair) and cannot get it to sync for both the phone and the media, it will only do one or the other.

Can anyone shoot me in a direction that I haven't tried?


Thanks in advace,
Steve

Did the GS3 get an OS update recently?

update was about a month and a half ago, and did not have any different until last week.

remove the negative batter terminal first and reset the car completely by leaving the battery unhooked for 15 minutes. Start her up and let us know if you run into the same issue. Have you done a hard reset on the phone as well?

Interesting issue. My GS3 works seamlessly in my non-Tech wagon - phone, music, and directions from the navigation. However, on the MDX with Tech, only phone and directions work 100%, but music streaming sometimes just doesn't work and it plays via the phone speakers, even when it is paired and the phone and navi had worked like a minute ago. That is a rare occurrence, but it does happen. I'm starting to wonder if it might have something to do with the media app being used for playback - I go between the Amazon and Google MP3 players.

Not sure if this will help, but just something to try. On your Galaxy S3, go to settings and one of the first things you should see is Bluetooth. Click on Bluetooth (not the on/off switch but the actual word "Bluetooth") , and you should see a list of your paired items. Next to each item is an icon shaped like a gear. That is the settings for that particular paired item. Click on it and it should give you the option to check or uncheck "call audio" or "Media audio." Make sure both are checked. You may have to do this in the car with the Bluetooth on. Hope that helps.

Rob
