bluetooth

omgwtfreally

So, I got my 2017 370z last year of march, when I got it bluetooth only worked for pone calls not media, so Youtube, pandora etc etc, So i did try many things nothing worked, someone said there is a disc to upgrade the Software I am at Nissan and they said its $150 kind of seems like bs...why don't they carry the latest software on hand? I've gone so long without music I guess ill continue. what do you guys think about this?

This should work on the sport tech, at least it does on my 2016. You do have to switch your phone over to an Audio device for it to work though. However your phone will still work as a phone as well. I'm not near my car, but under the BT menu you should find an Audio device option right under phone option, select that, then select your phone, it will ask you if you want to convert it to an audio device. Then it will play audio from the phone.

I have. Galaxy S8+ when you go to the bluetooth setting you have
Use for then you have
Call audio
Media Audio
Contact access

and by each one a little slide over option my issue is i slide it over for Media audio but it wont let me slide and and says unavailable, this is only when i try in my car any other bluetooth devices noy a problem, is this the option you are talking about though?

Nope its on the car, on the touchscreen interface. When I get back to my car I can take a picture, but its there on my 2016. I would guess once you have converted it to an audio device on the car then your phone will let you flip the audio slider. I have a OnePlus 5T in another vehicle right now and all three of those boxes are checked.

Have you selected your cars BT from your phone and went into the settings of it? Some phones only set it up as a phone call device but if you select options you can select the audio option. I know my Infiniti I have to pair it as a BT audio device instead of just a phone BT device. It's was a pain to figure out

So, I am trying to follow your instructions but there isn't a lot of options on the navigation-phone settings

omgwtfreally

Yes ive gone into bluetooth options on the phone many times,

Phone audio slider blue
Media audio slider blue wont slide says not supported
contact audio blue slider


idk what to do thought buy the disk was my only way

again i have a galaxy S8 +

In the car, under Bluetooth, Then Connected Devices, Choose Audio Player:



Your phone should show up, select it and it will ask if you want to convert it to an audio player. Select yes.



Your phone will still act like a phone after the conversion, and accept voice commands from the car, it will just allow you to play music as well.

This is my guess as to what is missing, this is what I have to do on my 2016, otherwise I can't play music either.

idk how to upload pictures but after i hit my phone i only get a menu with select edit or delete.
hitting edit only allows me to change the pho e name...like i said i think i need the disc :'(

OhioYJ

In that menu you choose select, that's normal.

Dude! Thank you so much. I was having the same issue. I thought I needed the firmware update as well, but there was no way I was paying for it. I just went out to my car and switched it over to Audio Device and boom. OP, it should definitely work for you. I had to play around with it first. I can make step by step instructions for you if need be.

OMG u r the man. I hadn’t been able to play music unless I used cord (Slacker/Pandora/Spotify) since I bought my car in October 2016.

Your detailed instructions were Great. Cut the Cord to music. Only charging now☄️
