Phone via usb 2014 all terrain

[JrAT2]

Yall ever seen a dually with 8 wheels?

well anyways i hook up my phone to my radio on my 2014 via usb and it reads connected but the music will not transfer to the radio and my phone shows it is playing .... 

now , i know thats what bluetooth is there for but, since i have a sound system on my truck Bluetooth will not let me “full blast” like via usb even while my phones volume is all the way up ..

and it bugs me because im away from home working so i cant set up my music i want to listen to on my usb and practically paying spotify for nothing....

 

any input on this is well appreciated! Thnks.

I sometimes have to switch to the radio and then back to the phone. It’s finicky unfortunately.

 

Bluetooth lets me full blast for sure, sometimes the source volume is too low.

 

I believe you can download an app on your phone to increase bluetooth volume. Some sort of eq that just stays in the backround. I’d recommend trying that first since bluetooth connection is so much more reliable than the usb. I’ve fiddled with both of them countless times. I don’t use usb anymore.

It used to work like that pressing radio then back to media but not no more

Cant you turn the volume up on your phone? Thats how it works on mine. But I have a samsung note9.
