I initially had a problem with bluetooth music streaming. After pairing the phone which was easy I realized that the default did not include pairing for music. To solve that problem there was a check box under bluetooth options for Music. The option for phone was the only one checked by default after pairing I had to manually select music. After that I was able to stream music over blue tooth.

Ultimately I stopped doing that because every time my phone was plugged into the 6FL cable it would break the bluetooth pairing for music. It appears that iDrive will only allow one connection type per device.

Ultimately I will breakdown and buy a snap-in adapter for my iPhone so I can take full advantage of all integration features. All I use is a Ghost Shield so no case hassles. I like living on the "iPhone 4s" edge.
