BMW apps won't work with droid. But it should work over bluetooth.

Does anyone know if there is a way for Pandora to play via BMWApps integration without the Pandora app up and running?
I find it quite annoying that it stops working should I choose to reply to a text message or check email since that closes the app and thus the connection is lost. Thanks. |

I think the issue is that whatever protocol Pandora and BMW use to integrate the iDrive system must be something that cannot run in the background due to iOS restrictions. Just a guess... |

I always thought it was strange that when the iPhone is in the cradle, launching Pandora, it "knows" that it's connected to a BMW, even if though you're not connecting via Plug-in. |

Also, I tested the double-tap quick app switching and it doesn't change anything - anytime you leave the Pandora app, it will stop playing. I wish I could at least find a logical reason for this, but I can't find anything online. It doesn't make sense that a phone (and vehicle) this powerful can't let these apps run in the background. As long as they are connected via USB, they should work... |

The cradle is terrible. I hate it so far. Hardly ever works correctly.

I love the cradle, and couldn't go back to just the USB cable. The only thing that is a pain is the fact that the phone is out of reach, unless you want to pull over and fiddle with it. |

It's very tempermental. Works sometimes. Other times, I get an error and it won't connect at all.

Instead, I am thinking about getting a ProClip system to mount my phone just to the right of the gear shift and then simply running my USB cable out the center armrest and down the side between the passenger seat and console. I'd connect a tilt-swivel iPhone holder to this mount that would enable me to simply slide the phone out - while still connected - if I wanted to do anything while driving. |
