I recently switched from an LG G4 to the Galaxy S7 Edge. The G4 connected with my car's bluetooth, and when I received an incoming text message, I'd receive an alert on the car's screen, and I could select an option whereby the car (in a Siri-like voice) would read the text message to me. I've now synced the S7 Edge with the car's bluetooth, and when I get into the car, I can see that the phone is connected, but then the Driver Mode automatically kicks in (even though I have it switched to "off"). When I turn the Driver Mode off manually, it essentially disconnects the phone from the car's bluetooth. If I don't turn off the Driver Mode, and I hear a ping for an incoming text message, nothing happens on the car screen. (No, I don't try to read the text message while I'm driving.) Is there a way to get the S7 Edge to sync w/the car's bluetooth for the Message+ function without going through Driver Mode? Or, do I have to download and use a different text messaging app (e.g. Textra) altogether?
I can understand the frustration of having issues with your bluetooth Phredcat.Since we don't support the connection with your car to your phones bluetooth, you will need to either download a 3rd party application or contact your car's manufacture .
