Android Connectivity...
« on: June 20, 2012, 11:17:25 pm »
Hi Folks,

I've just made the jump from iPhone to Android in the form of an HTC One X.  So obviously the iPhone connector cable (in my glovebox) is now redundant.

Wondering what the current thinking is for connecting an Android phone to the RCD 310 (I think that's what I have - it's the 6 CD in dash one).?

Are the options limited to Aux in only or is there a nicer solution that would charge the phone too?? 

All suggestions welcome!

Cheers,

Dave.

if its just an ipod box then i think you'd have to change it for an MDI and then you could get the aux lead...

unless its already an MDI in which case you could get the USB lead and/or aux...

i use A2DP through my kufatec fiscon for audio and i've got a hardwired USB charger that comes up through one of the blanked ports next to the ESP socket (which i drilled out for the wire) for one of those telephone wire style charging cables and also got my aux-in socket there too

works wicked!

do post back what solution you come up with
