Playing Music Off An Android Phone

What did I need to buy to play music off my Samsung Galaxy? I see adapters for IPhones but nothing for Androids.

Depends which trim you have. Some have the RCA inputs, does yours? If so, just a mini to dual RCA will work using your headphone out on the phone.

If you dont want to deal with cords you want this: http://www.y-shop.net/new-a2dp-anyco...adapter-a-p123 you'll have to dig for a reasonable price, it should be able to be had for under 40 if you shop around.

Beware that you sacrifice audio quality going this route.

I believe it's just a 3.5mm to RCA adapter cable, even radio shack has those. I don't think the video even works unless you are stopped with the brake on.

In an AT you need to be in PARK with the E-brake applied. In a 6MT you need to be stopped and have the E-brake applied.

Decent built and sound quality? I don't need monster cable for this but at least I want some decent and won't break after 2 weeks.

I'm an audio enthusiast. You're fine.

I believe the cable you have ordered does not include a video (yellow plug) signal. You might be able to insert either the red or the white male plug into the yellow RCA port (if you had the correct cable and get it to work). I believe ordering the cable that's used for older camcorders will work in the Infiniti.

Try clicking this link to Amazon

I tried outputting my audio and video via Bluetooth A2DP and it looks my 08 G35X doesn't have it. It does have the RCA input and I was trying to output my phone video (so I can watch YouTube, surf the web, listen to music, GPS app, and more) and have all that show up on the in-dash LCD, but I cannot find the appropriate cable because my Android Samsung Skyrocket is too new, that it doesn't have 3.5mm to RCA cables, just MicroUSB to HDMI (MHL connectivity).

But with other video devices outputting video via its 3.5mm jack, it's definitely worth a shot! Good luck!
