Samsung infuse USB to car not working - Samsung Infuse 4G

I just purchased a Samsung infuse and for the first time hooking up USB and selecting connect to PC didn't work (had other droids and they all worked fine). I don't have a problem connecting to my PC and.it failed with both stock FW and infused 2.0. my car is the Chevy cruze and just to confirm it's not the USB I hooked up my streak and it worked instantly. Any idea how to fix this?

Try this: Settings> applications> development> uncheck USB debugging.

I tried it with both debug on and off and was different cables and no luck. the phone detects the connection but the car does not

I am assuming you are taking about interfacing your infuse with your in car stereo system, correct? Not sure if you were maybe referring to simply charging.
I have had the same issue as you, my in car dvd system will recognize damn near anything I plug into it, besides my infuse. It won't even recognize it as a mass storage device. Haven't figured out a work around yet, perhaps someone will come along with a solution.

Yea, kinda sucks, pretty much the only thing my iphone 4 does better than this phone, I could listen to music, watch movies saved on the device and stream netflix to sol the screens in my car. Hopefully I can figure it out soon, its not a dealbreaker, but it would be nice.
Other than this issue, I absolutely love this phone, plus we have some awesome devs doing fantastic work

Samsung Infuse works in car when connected via USB
Hi Guys,
I also got Samsung Infuse recently, and i also had the same problem, mp3 player does not work when connected to car via USB.
Now i found a solution for that problem. Please follow the steps below,
Settings -- > Applicaitons --> USB Settings -- > Development -- Uncheck the Debugging Option
Now switch off your car stereo, connect your phone to the car via USB, and select
'Mass Storage' option when prompted.
Once it is connected, now switch on the car stereo, and it should play the music.
i tried the above steps and playing music in the car via USB.

Question about playing music from phone on car stereo?

Ok guys, I got a Sensation a few days ago and also bought a new Pioneer Deck DEH8300UB.
I tried connecting the USB to the front of the deck to play music, it charges the phone but the deck says error trying to read the phone. Is their something I need to do to get this to work without having to use the 3.5mm jack on the phone and deck?
I also got a stereo on my boat that has the same inputs and its doing the same thing on that, Id like to only use one cord is possible.
Thanks so much guys, you are always a GREAT help!!
I dont think its possible to do it like that but there is something you can try. Plug your phone into the computer and select USB mode then check the "never ask again" box at the bottom of the screen. That will be your best chance of getting it working. Dont get your hopes up though because I do not think that will work, but its worth a shot.
i usually just use aux cable works GREAT! BUT my sister has a sony xplode deck and i do use the usb so it is possible but the usb on radio decks are tricky do either number 1 or step #2(works for me) on her deck when i plug the usb into it and the phone it automatically goes to usb source on radio, the trick is to plug it in and then swith ur radio deck off of usb and back...yeah weird but it works for me, usually the plug and play method doesnt work cuz the deck wont read usb first time around:
1. plug it in wait till phone shows option and choose usb(check never ask again...though it asks anyway again?!?)
2. if that didnt work, plug in usb on radio deck then switch it(source button?) off usb and back to usb then from phone choose usb connection and never ask again...this does the trick on my sis usb deck everytime...my hd2 did same thing dont know why(i much prefer the aux)
I've been using the Belkin Air Cast unit - nice thing is that audio is bluetooth, so I don't have to keep connecting the 3.5mm jack - just plug in the AirCast, push a button when I get in the car, and presto - music, even if the phone is in my pocket.
Beautifully simple, and even handles hands-free calling duties. Love it.

Thanks so much guys.
I will try what you guys suggested. Hopefully it will work, my main concern is making sure its charging while playing music so I don't kill the battery, that I know works which is awesome, so just need to work out the usb part, I guess if that don't work I will look into the BT jobby or just use the 2 wires and just neatly electrical tape the wires together so it doesn't look like a birds nest!
Again thanks so much.
When you plug it in does the phone give you some options to choose from? If yes you have to mount sd card as mass storage for it to be accessible.

[Q] Micro USB port stopped working on Xoom. Help!

I went to plug my Xoom into the HD speaker dock and it wasent picking up my music it would only play through the speakers on the tablet. So i took it to my PC and it doesnt even detect a device. Please Help!!
Did you try a different cable/USB port etc? I do not know anything about the dock but don't those things use the dock port/connecter on the xoom and not usb? Sounds like two issues to me. But again I don't poop about the dock.
Yeah it also uses the USB port that's how it plays the music but it just won't pick anything up and even on the computer it acts like there is nothing plugged in...yeah I tried different cables but the same thing happens

[Q] Infuse and Ford Sync

So, I just got an infuse today, and so far I am loving it. However, I've noticed that when I plug it into my Sync system, it isn't charging. I am able to charge my iPhone, iPods, kids usb mp3 player, and other devices.
Has anyone used the infuse with a sync system yet? If so, what model year car?
Currently trying to use it in a 2009 Focus SES, non-touchscreen version.
Charges fine with my 2010 Fusion Sync system, non touchscreen and USB via port in the storage area between my seat and front passenger.
Try a different USB cable? Do other devices charge with it in your car?

I have a 2010 hyundai sonata and I use the usb connector in the car to charge the phone and it works just fine here.
I am not sure what a sync system is though but the charging is fine.
OK, I figured out the charging thing. For some reason, I have to make sure that it is in USB Storage mode, which means I can't just plug it in and forget it. Not a huge deal, as long as I don't try to plug it in when I am driving (yes, I learned that the hard way and almost went off-road in a Focus).
So my next question is, where does everyone put their music that they want to use with the sync system? Does anyone even use Sync, or do they just play it over BT to the car?
I would rather it go through the USB, as having to turn the volume up or down can cause audio distortion, whereas USB is just reading the file across and no amplification is taking place beforehand.
What software do you use to sync your phone with Music? I've downloaded DoubleTwist and WinAmp, but DT locks up and WinAmp's interface still sucks... (Really, it still seems like it was designed in 1995).
I used Sync once with an iPod. That was before I got the Infuse.
I own a Subaru - I only encounter Sync on rentals, so there's a possibility I might be using it tomorrow. (Business trip)
I use Bluetooth whenever my car actually wants to pair with my phone. I can almost never have the connection established, picks it right up with my HD2, but not my Infuse.... o well. AUX is the way to go. Lol
Sent from Optimus-Prime's Infuse 4G
Optimus-Prime: Actually, I'm reading quite a few people having issues with bluetooth and wifi on the Infuse. It's actually making me reconsider the phone and going with something else.
I have had to turn off BT, turn it back on, then force Sync to look for the phone in order to get it to work in the car the last couple of days. If it continues and an update isn't available in the next few days, I will take it back and get a different model.
Fords software might not suport the infuse yet. It works great with my wifes iphone. Check out syncmyride.com and select your car and it should tell you what phones have been tested

I wish google would come up with software like sync for vehicles. I love sync but its very buggy sometimes. It does not seem to support alot of new devices.

USB audio on stock to pioneer Deh-x3500ui

I have my S3 on stock software. Bought this pioneer deck that says its android compatible. Could use the headphone aux in but wanted to use the USB audio. Is there something I'm missing. I put the phone in "media mode" and the deck says na USB audio when I connect it.. so its recognized but when I play something on the phone it just plays through the phone speakers. I'm new to this integration. Searched the forum with no avail. Any help greatly appreciated.

Most decks are "android compatible" by either reading the phone as a usb device or by bluetooth. Since the S3 doesn't present itself as a usb storage device, it won't work via usb. The only ways to connect it is either through aux cable or bluetooth connection. Btw have the same deck as you lol
Ha thanks for the reply. Aux it is since no Bluetooth on it. I bet you like those colors don't you.

Haha, yeah the colors look sick. If you want to have a bluetooth connection, you can do a round about way. If you want a kind of iphone/ipod touch experience (changing songs/volume from the phone) with the S3, get a bluetooth adapter such as the auris. You connect the bluetooth adapter to the iphone cable and then just sync up the bluetooth to the phone. Bluetooth 4.0 aptx quality supposedly equivalent to usb.

[Q] P6800 7.7 NO USB audio PLEASE HELP !!!

Hi.I'm new in Android world.
I work on my car stereo project and it's in the middle and I stock with usb-audio out issue.
I have a Samsung tab 10.1 from local AT&T store and P6800 7.7(int.ver.) that I just bought to use as a head-unit in car.
When I connect 10.1 tab to DAC the power lights comes on, on DAC and HUB and it gives me audio out of USB (30pin) .
When I connect P6800 to DAC the power lights comes on, on DAC and HUB but i'm getting message warning "high power USB device connected... cannot access this device." and sound goes to internal speaker.but USB-HUB powered by external power supply.
Restarting with connected or disconnected HUB makes no difference,same result no sound via USB.
The 10.1 already came with ICS4.0.3 and 7.7 I updated via Kies to ICS4.0.4 and both support USB-Host.
I'm using 30pin -->USB-HUB OTG kit --> Behringer U-CONTROL UCA202 DAC.
Question is WTF is wrong?
Should I flash 7.7 to ICS4.1 or any other custom ROM?
Anyone ???
Thanks
Can u charge 10.1 with pc? In settings, go to dock option and check it, you must use the original dock, 3rd party accessories are no guarantee to work. Try flash custom roms but i doubt they will also cause ppl hardly succede with hdmi let alone dock sound, plus atm they still have problem with stable roms :|

Thanks for reply.
Yes it can charge from PC, even if it's says "Discharging" it's actually charging but slow.
Also I just tried to connect already powered HUB to 7.7 and it's doesn't give me warning about " Hi-power usb connected but can't access " anymore,
it looks like exact like it would 10.1 connected with green lights on DAC and HUB but sound plays internally no mater if dock opt. checked or unchecked .
I assume 4.0.3 vs 4.0.4 does not related to that issue as well as 3rd party accessories since it's works with 10.1.
Flashing custom ROM and loose some features is doesn't sounds right too.
Well they are 2 different devices, you cant say that. The softwares are different. I noticed you use the word hub. Try connect directly to the tab, and try different accessories. Its hard to compare different devices even though they share similarities. Perhaps compare 2 7.7 is better.
Or youcan send me the tab and i can have a look at it. Mine works perfectly

What accessories do you use to connect your 7.7 to DAC?
I mean HUB or otg cable?
By the way usb flash drives and memory cards works fine with 7.7 via that usb HUB. I'll buy otg cable to see if it get me audio out.
Here is the HUB

Nope this rubbish won't work. Haizz. Wasted time with you when you insist on your mistakes. Hubs won't work ever. From 2.0 speed you get down to 1.1
Sent from my GT-P6800 using xda app-developers app
OK I got this OEM Samsung USB Connection Kit direct to DAC. DAC light is on,"USB connector connected" came up but same result.Only internal plays.
OK I GOT AUDIO OUT with "rubbish" usb-hub mentioning above but only when I use "USB AUDIO RECORDER PRO" app. So it's not hardware issue it's on software level.
How to make it happen with other apps without flashing? I need to make it work with any internet radio apps.
Ok it was purely luck. Otg are purely for connecting external devices to your tabs. It is not meant for connect your tabs to other devices. When you connect it to the PC you can see that it require driver for Samsung for the PC to recognize it. This tag does not have mass storage mode, it only has mtp and ptp mode. So the proper way for it to function as media storage is to connect it to the PC, or having a media player can function as the PC would, but I doubt there is such available. Maybe you cab try Ubuntu embedded? Again I don't recommend such measure. It is getting too complicated.
Or you can also build a media player with driver speicifically working with this tabs to specifically pick out the audio output from the USB
Or you can use the original dock and connect the audio route. It is much simpler
Or you can switch to apple devices, they are popular and get supported well.
And you can send the tab to me
Sorry buddy, you ran out of luck
Sent from my GT-P6800 using xda app-developers app
"build a media player with driver" OR "use the original dock" are not the options, and apple is not even under consideration.
Actually I do use original dock ,but it does not provide the options to get data of USB, it's for charging purposes only.
So I just removed that 30-pin connector and used one from USB-hub.
The only question is to find player that capable to send sound to USB.
ANYONE PLEASE?
God with this Guy. With the dock not only you get sound output but also HDMI. go snd buy the original one
Sent from my GT-P6800 using xda app-developers app
The original vehicle mounting dock has sliding 30pin to round connector adapter only and cable with usb to that connector is included.
so what hdmi you talking about? Unless you talking about different dock but I'm talking about this to be able to use it in car
No the stand dock on table, the car holder are just for holding and charging, if you want you can stick the desktop dock on car surface, or connect the car dock to the stand dock
Sent from my GT-P6800 using xda app-developers app
Yes I can but it does not give me USB-audio out anyway.
It's a driver issue.I can flash to custom ROM but still did not confirmed what ROM support USB-audio.
