Hi guys,
Quick question can anyone recommend a decent car stereo that I can control my S3 with. I.e. select music to play from the stereo. My current stereo only plays once I've selected it on the phone. Bit annoying really.
Cheers in advance

Using the Sony BT3900U, working brilliantly with my S3. Sound quality is awesome and connects way faster then my HTC Desire.

Nuts. I need a double-DIN for my car. Was worth a shot!

I've been in car audio for 20 years.sure your car may have a doubledin unit, but you should be able to use a single din unit with an install kit.

This guy is right. I could recommend a kit with a cubby. I always have liked those more... I hate space without use.

+1 for the sony bt3900u. I even owned the previous model (stolen when car was broken into). I love this unit because the bluetooth is built in, connects instantly when i get into my car, and sound quality is excellent
Cheers guys I'll check this out
Thanks

Does this allow you to browse the files on the phone with a file explorer?

Play Music -> A2DP support = Problem solved.
Browsing the files on the phone from the headunit would require you to mount the device as a USB drive. This is not actually possible over bluetooth (or has never properly been implemented?) and if you would like a function like that you can get a headunit with a usb port and plug your phone directly in via that port.

Hi Ricey
It maybe worth checking out the SONY XAV 601BT Its a double din touch screen stereo that utilises Mirrorlink technology built into the Galaxy S3 so you control your phone from the touchscreen on the stereo.
A few forum members including myself have this and we have a big discussion about it (with photos) here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1837847
hope this helps

Now that someone cracked the appradio2 to mirror android phones it seems by far the best unit out there IMO. Big thread on xda about it just search

Not entirely true.. some have it all integrated. I know its stock, but in my gf's POS 2012 Fusion, has sync and it sees the phone and can control the tracks, playlist and such all from the vehicle's controls. And no, it does not have nav.
I am sure there are some aftermarket that have similar capability.

I have been wanting to try this Parrot head unit, but I haven't seen one in use yet. I gotta say, it has a ton of neat features...

I am converting over to a double din system, for a big ol screen, but if I wasn't, I would probably go this route.
It really depends on how much you're willing to spend... I recently had my car broken in to - headunit and sunglasses stolen bastards... wasn't anything flash, an Alpine cde-133bt (paid about $300 for it at the time, 8months ago) - did the job, through bluetooth was great, could control either via phone or the headunit (only next or previous song on the headunit if using bluetooth), and has the aux and usb ports.
Also depends on what set-up of speakers you have in your car if you need something of higher quality as well...

Anyone look into this? Thinking about pulling the trigger on this for my 06 GLI.. They claim it supports text on the head unit, and full control from the head unit and steering wheel controls..

The more I think about it, the more I think my next car stereo will be something like the Nexus 7 tablet.

It's really only a viable option for higher end car stereos though, that have amplifiers.

Headphones are the antenna. I don't see how it's possible without them.

FM Radio
I have an XPERIA S with the mod'd FM radio app that worked without the headphones plugged in, but it had to be in a VERY good reception area to pick up a station.
The other way, is just get a 3.5mm stereo plug with approx 60cm of cable (aerial) attached and you've got a cool antenna and then just play the radio through the speaker.
The menu has the "Play in Speaker" option already ... so you've already got all the best options.
Walks away and looks for Bluetooth headphones....
[Update]
Cool. With a metre of cable attached to a 3.5mm stereo plug I can listen to the radio on my Bluetooth headphones
I have the phone in the best reception location and via the magic of Bluetooth I can listen to the radio (and answer calls) approx 6 metres away.
Schumann ....classical music... all very civilized.

The mod is working in that case, you aren't hearing any sound because without the phones the signal of the station you're trying to hear is too weak...
Hello, as the title implies i am looking for a call recorder app that supports BT headset?
Do you know anyone that works?

As far as I know this APP does it. Give it a try and report back. I'm using it myself, but never tried it with a BT headset.
thanks man - it works great
You're welcome. Happy that I could be of any help
