    Does anyone have a solution to programming the handsfree bluetooth speaker phone AND the BT streaming audio so that each works? I have tried to program each and every time the truck disables the alternate feature from the one I am trying to set up. Is it possible to use both?

    I am using an iPhone 4.

    Thanks TW.

    It's possible to use both as I have it hooked up that way with an Iphone 4

    Try deleting all existing profiles then re-pairing.

    I followed the BT phone setup in the owners manual and added some numbers to the BT phone book. When I exited the setup, I noticed the BT icon on the stereo. So I hit the mode button on the steering wheel and it was streaming music from my iPhone 4s. I did not know about this function when I got the truck but I love it. Now when I am about 15' from my truck it automatically connects to my iPhone. I love this feature. I do not know why yours is not working. Like I said I just followed the instructions in the manual. If you keep having trouble, take it to the dealership and ask them to set it up for you. I did nothing special to get the streaming music to work. Also, if I have my GPS app or pandora app running, it streams as well. Regardless, however I have music streaming, if I get a call it automatically pauses the music and the phone rings. Same if I place a call. I am really impressed at how seamless the functionality is.
    Sorry this is more about what I am experiencing with the system rather than how to get it working.

    I did the same thing with my Droid Phone and it works great! Listen to iHeart radio and it is awesome. And like Molon said if you get a call it will pause music.

    Re-pair and and start out by pairing your phone first, just listen to the instructions ,it will ask if you want to enable the internal audio say yes it will then ask you to confirm agree again. This should be all it takes .
