Aftermarket bluetooth

Is there an aftermarket Bluetooth system that utilizes the phone button and display screen on the console other than sync?

I bought this: http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-T605-.../dp/B000N85PLS

It won't integrate with factory electronics, but it will do the same thing and do Pandora from phone. I haven't installed it yet.

My dad bought one of those for his truck. ^

He likes it.. Doesn't really use the phone part because it's easier to just hold the phone and sounds better, but he enjoys the streaming music.

I got something similar to that. It's the blackberry bluetooth gateway. (It doesn't have the hands-free stuff. It's strictly for streaming audio.


I run everything through my android phone. I even set it up to automatically turn on bluetooth, GPS, unmute the volume, turn off the lockscreen & then connect to the gateway & fire up pandora. All I gotta do is sit the phone in it's car dock.

I hooked the gateway up to the aux port so I just tossed the gateway in there & I never have to bother with it.

I didn't really want hands-free features, the phone's mounted right there at my shifter anyways, I just extend my pointer finger & touch the screen.


Pandora for radio
Grooveshark for searching music on-the-fly
MP3 player for my music collection
Sometimes I'll play youtube stuff through it as well.
Maps & internet access, nav including turn-by-turn & steet view, points of interest & all that jazz.
GPS speedo
voice commands
Also mounts to dash for a nifty 720p dash-cam

It's not as cool as the Navigation package, but it works for me. I do like the fact that it goes with me & into my other cars.

This is my plan with the Droid. I like the Gps speedo for headsup but it is a little slow. I used to have a 98 Grand Prix GTP with heads up display and this app reminds me how nice HUD is.

What's the app to auto turn on functions? I found one to do Pandora, but not everything else.

With the Motorola setup, I need the phone to go thru radio speakers so I can hear the caller. The Roush exhaust makes it difficult.
