Bluetooth streaming issues with Amudensen using Moto Play X

Featured Replies

I've bought a Moto Play X phone and when I try to stream music to my Amundsen unit I notice that the audio cuts in and out, like it's breaking up, I've noticed that if I move my phone closer to the head unit the problem gets worse instead of better. I can't leave the phone in my top jacket inside pocket as this also causes problems with the sound breaking up, if I move my arms on the steering wheel.

 

 

I can't put my phone in the phone box located under the unit as this also causes the issues, however I've noticed if I put my phone in the little compartment located in the dashboard opposite of where the driver's knee would be, then the result is much better and there is less break up. It's not totally perfect it thought but 98% better.

 

 

When I had a Samsung Galaxy S4 phone I could leave this phone in my jacket pocket,  the phone box or on top of it and stream without issues, I really don't understand the problem as this only occurs with Amundsen, streaming to any other bluetooth device does not exhibit this behaviour.

 

I've tried clearing the cache partition on the phone, different music player apps to know avail.

 

Does anyone else have this problem or know what it is causing it?, it's very strange it seems to be like the bluetooth signal with from the phone is almost too strong for the Amudsen, it seems I need to keep the phone as far away as possible from the head unit in order to stop the audio break ups.

Just to add, if people could tell me what phone they use to stream to their Amudensen and if it  works as I've been trying to solve this problem with the Moto Play X since Xmas but I can't so I'm thinking of getting rid of the phone and getting a new one, however I'm a bit worried that the same problem will happen with a new phone.

 

The main difference I can see between my Samsung S4 and Moto Play X is that the Moto uses Bluetooth 4 LE where as the sammy doesn't,  so i'm wondering if Bluetooth 4 LE could be the culprit?, if it is I assume there will be many new flag ship phones which would have this compatibility issue also.
