I even selected Media on the Android after connecting USB. Still no go.

I guess I'll leave a small iPod connected in there.
Maybe your year doesn't support bluetooth. That sucks. There is a thread about adding a Bluetooth receiver ($10) to make it work. But that ipod thing might just work better for you.

I am following that thread but it seems like there is nothing good coming out of that thread. Not sure why a nice car like Infiniti wouldn't spend money to implement this.

With my '11 coupe w/ navi ... I use the BT audio and telephony connection every day with my LG G4 and previously w/ my LG G2. Hardly ever a hiccup unless I was the one confusing it with my gf's device and mine trying to pair at the same time, it worked itself out after a couple of minutes and in the meantime, we just listened to the USB source audio.
I use a Nexus 5 with bluetooth. With the old software of Android 5.1.1 or whatever, bluetooth would auto play my music 9/10 times, or at least my song selection would show up on the NAV screen, and I would simply go to next song, and it'll begin playing (all without taking out my phone).

Now with Android 6.0, my app/phone/bluetooth/whatever fails to connect like 5/10 times and I have to manually go into my phone, start the music app, and then I can stream music. Anyone else experience this problem?

I have a 2010 w/ NAV

I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 9.1 and I have to do the same but plugged in. I have to start music, then plug in, and then music will start or if I am watching a video the audio will be able to be played. I can not plug in watching youtube and expect it to play over the speakers, I have to start a song to get it to recognize.

Yes. The non-navs doesn't support bluetooth music streaming.

I have a LG Stylo 6, but I can't get it to connect. Is there any information that will assist in getting it connected? I already have my Samsung S22 connected.

Hmmmm....I can connect my S22 but it will not play audio. Phone calls are just fine. My old S16 ( I think) connected completely in all features. Before that my S14 did not connect audio just the phone features again. I have not idea what the issues is and I only drive the car about 15km Mon-Fri. I kinda just learned to just accept the no audio feature.

If anyone has any information on why or how to fix I would be interested as well.

Oh its a 2013xs sport with full tech package.
