Anybody else having difficulty syncing tablet and phone at the same time? More often than not, sync plays music off my phone rather than the tablet when I say bluetooth audio. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Most android phones will let you choose media and phone in the bluetooth setup. You can uncheck the media option and your phone wont connect. That is what I did.

Thanks for the reply. Going to try that on my phone, but I'm using a blackberry tablet. Don't think there's an option like that, but at least I can un-check media on my phone.

Just ordered a nexus 7 and this will be my first android device.. I currently have the iphone . My question is what apps would you guys recommend to download. I am doing torque....but what else.

Of you aren't going to use a 4g data plan I'd recommend the Copilot app for navigation since you can download the full maps and use internal GPS.

One other app I really like is the Ulysses Speedometer.

Ok...received my nexus 7 today! Problem is I have iphone 5s and now the android nexus 7. They were both paired, but every time I run Bluetooth audio, it defaults back to the iphone when I turn the ignition off. Anyone know how if the two devices will work together , allowing music through nexus and phone through the iphone?

I have read the other posts and it seems not much luck in doing so. Just checking if any workarounds have been figured out yet.

clear your synced devices from your factory stereo and re-pair the Tablet first to make it the main device also I believe there is a setting to make it default to for Bluetooth audio

how do you charge your nexus while driving, when i plug into USB port it does not charge, torque and Bluetooth wear the battery down quickly

The USB in the Dash Charges at a low amperage so I ran a 12V power jack under my dash and plugged in cigarette lighter to USB that charges at 2.1 amps I have left my truck for a week while out of town the lowest the power has been is 89% but charged back up in the first 20 min. of driving , I also leave my Bluetooth turned on on the tablet all the time instead of having tasker shut it off , this way the truck sees it as soon as it turns on and does not require me to say "Bluetooth Audio" everytime I turn on my truck
