Hi

Have a 2012 E350 with the harmon kardon and nav

Have tried to the engineering menu to enable bluetooth streaming but the options look different to what i have seen online.

Does anyone know how its done for this model?

Thanks

 

I thought that was already enabled on model years 2011 and later.

Does anyone have issues with ios 9 and older w212's?

I have a 2010 and am using iphone5 with ios 8.1.1

I want to update to ios9, but am not sure if I will have issues.

 

Hi

Tried that and get a complete different menu to the one shown,
Will upload a picture later

 

I have a 2011 E350 and have no issues streaming with iPhone 6S Plus with IOS 9.02. Make sure you are trying to connect through the DISC menu under Bluetooth audio.

 

This is the menu i get when i try to go to the engineering menu,

 

Wish I could streams on a my2010

 

That looks very different from mine. Do you have comand with navigation?

 

Yes have navigation

 

You can stream on your 2010. Go to the dealership and have them update the firmware on your radio....done deal !!

 

my dang bluetooth streaming is glitchy b/c it makes me authorize everytime i use streaming (even though the phone is connected). Once connected to bluetooth stream w/ pandora, I get three different types of info...

 

Thank you, did not know that!!

 

Why can't you? I stream on mines using the hidden menu post linked above.

 

Worked!!!

 

Great
I use it quite often and I even notice that apps like FB messenger that allow you to make calls through them now work (phone calls) since the bluetooth is enabled. For some odd reason I have a few lazy friends who only call through that app instead of simply using the regular phone.

 

Cool, do text messages pop up...alerts? Thx

 

I read that you can set it up to read text messages but I've not tried it out. If my memory is correct they talk about it on the hidden menu thread. I should look into it since I can't multi task at all. Looking at my phone while driving is like being blind folded for me.

To add, with the FB app it has a different ring then your stand phone call ring. So if someone calls me through it, it'll ring through the speakers just as a regular phone call would. Except it has it's unique ringtone coming through the speakers.

 

mate did you do it without any updates on your system? where did you go as soon as you enter the engineering menu?

as I dont have any problems with my old ipod on the dash connected via multimedia then phone calls via bluetooth. just wanted to try this and...

whats the difference between my current set up (old ipod on dash for music+iphone connected via bluetooth for calls) than everything being connected via bluetooth? (music+calls both via bluetooth)

 

Bump

Still cant figure this one out.
Also had a pm from another member who has the same menu but no bt stream

Has anyone else got the harmon kardon speakers and able to access the right engineering menu?

 

I got problems like jazz5000.

I got aps 50 audio "harman Kardon" without pcmcia card.

Anyone on this forum can help ?

Tnx for all

 

I don't think he had any updates. I'm surprised it's not working for you as well.

This should save $$ instead of replacing parts...

 

I fix with this and work perfectly.
