i don't have a fancy bluetooth stereo deck... but i have an aftermarket aux input that i put into my head unit. i pretty much stream pandora radio everywhere now. when i'm out of town i also use 'A Online Radio' to get my local shows. Receiving calls though the speakers is nice as well.

 

hmm, i need to get the bluetooth installed on my car, i need another attachment to make it work, but this would be cool!

PS i am glad to hear someone saying that they love the phone, its usually, "oh i like it, but this and that isnt like this or that!"

 

cool app, any clue how to find urls for streaming radio?

 

Thats awesome! Im going to try it tomorrow. Maybe they fixed the bluetooth texting on verizon so I can use my Ford sync system with my Droid! Thought for sure my Droid would be able to use the blue tooth text being new phone. Instead of safety they went with cool audio lol makes sense.

 

Crutchfield.com is handy for finding out what components will work with your stock system... i used them to find the 'pxdx'. it works in my toyota for ipod and analog input on my factory system.

i'm on both sides there! i have plenty of things i don't like and a couple i hate, but there are sooo many others that keep me happy. for now.

 

android market---> search--->

'pandora' <--- build your own station

'A Online Radio' <---has alot of radio stations...

still waiting for FlyCast (on droid). that one is worth buying as it will record shows and save songs for you. at least it did on BB.

edit:
ps... nice avatar... one of my favorite posts of all time! they all work on droid too!

 

I just purchased a JVC Arsenal KD-A805 yesterday and have been playing around with it. So far, I must say, that I am very impressed. The only real gripe I have is that if there are a lot of a programs running in the background I get some drops in the stream. In order to correct it, all I need to do is kill the tasks.

MP3s sound great and Pandora sounds fantastic. It has completely eliminated my desire for satellite radio. Overall, this was worth the $200 investment in the new car stereo.

 

The combination of Pandora + GPS through my car stereo was one of the huuuge selling points to me for this phone.

To make it even easier and faster to setup when I get in the car and reduce physical wiring, I'm going to pick up a nifty little bluetooth receiver to connect to my stereo's aux input and just leave under the seat:
eCOST.com-Jabra Dog Tag Design Bluetooth Headset - BT3030 - Jabra BT3030 (Cellular / Phones) - eCOST.com - electronics, computers, laptops, mp3 players

Bluetooth > FM Transmitter

 

Many thanks to the original poster for letting me know about A-Online-Radio. Was looking for something like this for a few days now!!

Does anybody know if playing 4-5 hours of radio per day will get you into trouble with Verizon's "unlimited" data plan?

 

How is the sound quality with Bluetooth over, say, AUX input? I'd imagine AUX would sound better, but is it worth losing the wire over?

 

Hey guys if you are interested in streaming bluetooth in you car or on your car stereo, look up the BlackBerry Bluetooth Gateway. Plugs into the aux port on your stereo and pairs with EVERYTHING I've ever tried. Can be had for relatively cheap ($30 - 60) and works beautifully. If you don't believe me, google some reviews and see for yourself. I've been using for nearly two years now and never had an issue. F...Y...I...

 

Hey, what station in Rochester? Just curious, since I live here and rarely meet anybody who has been.

And I am planning on buying a new deck for my car with Bluetooth for just this reason

 

I thought that might have been the one, I love that station, though I haven't listened to the radio in a while. I grew up in Greece too, actually.

 

7 hours of battery while playing music.... and reviews on newegg say it may be a little low on volume, or even distort.... it looks like a cool product tho! made me research it... let us know how it does.

edit: the microphone is located on the dog tag itself.... bt callers might have trouble hearing u if it's under the seat

 

I'm not interested in car streaming, I'm not in it long enough to care. But, I do like streaming to my home stereo. Comes in handy when I'd rather not transfer a file from the phone to a pc. However..... as nice as that is I got a rude surprise when I missed two calls because they went to the stereo system and couldn't hear me because I lack a mic on the stereo. I wouldn't want to use it that way anyway. I had to remove the BT pairing to stop it.
So, any way to allow adp2 audio without pushing phone calls to the receiver? I'm happy if the stream paused but I'd prefer not having calls blasting over the stereo.

 

after you answer the call, down on the bottom isn't there an option of handset/ bluetooth? i remember switching back between the two easily.

edit: bottom left. 'Bluetooth" toggle button.
