2008 E92 Music Streaming Issues/Options

My 2008 E92 has idrive, iPod and USB adapter, HD radio, satellite radio, and Enhanced Premium Sound. I have an iPhoneX and if I plug it into the USB port to play music that option doesn't show up on the iDrive screen (only Aux) so I cannot play music either plugged in or wireless.

Are my onlyh options Tune2air and WMA3000B (not doing a retrofit)? Will they work with iPhoneX to play music wirelessly?

Or am I missing something with my current configuration?

Thanks

I just use a A2DP dongle in the center console. Plugs into the AUX jack there and the USB power source. Something like this. Been working great for over 5 years now.

Tune2Air so far is the only dongle that will let you skip and repeat tracks using the controls on the car. That way just leave the phone in your pocket.

I have an 09 e93 and use a TuneAir Firefly. I had a WMA3000 but surprisingly the sound was better on the cheaper TuneAir. The WMA3000 let me use the steering controls but I don't really have much use for them when streaming anyway.
I actually have another firefly if you want it. Amazon sent me two for some reason. You can have it for the cost of shipping if you want to try it out.
