I need to hook up my Android phone via USB to a stereo (AUX input on stereo broke). Could I use this cord to play Pandora from my phone?

Yes. On a regular stereo. But if its for a car stereo, depends in the car. Didnt work for my 2014 lancer

no, it will not work. look to see if you have RCA inputs on the stereo instead. if this is your car, you're out of luck. if it's a PC, try the audio input normally used with the VGA input.

I haven't tried that, but I don't think that it will. I think it only plays with Apple (AirPlay enabled) devices. I tried connecting my Android phone via USB and the phone couldn't interpret what to do with the speaker. I'm sure I could connect my Android phone via the audio aux input without issue though.

My car stereo has a USB input on the front. I would like to use this to transmit audio from my phone to the car stereo via this USB dongle. Is this one what did? Did it work?

Yes, just like any USB. You can play from your phone through bluetooth also. This unit has awesome sound for its size.

No, i personally used my android phone to listen to stored music and used the pandora station through it. It has an auxillary outlet so anything through that should suffice.

Depends what you're trying to connect. If all you want is audio, then sure, you can connect the headphone out on the phone to the audio inputs with a 1/8" to dual RCA cable. Honestly though, you'd be better off connecting a smartphone with an HDMI cable, a Chromecast, or via Bluetooth. If the phone outputs video signals over the headphone jack (I think some apple stuff does), then you could get a triple RCA to 1/8" cable that supports stereo audio and video and do that.

Yeah, I just plug it in with the cord but it doesn't play the ocean sounds for me so I just use Pandora with it

Hello matt, I play Pandora through my iPhone 5, it does not come up as an option on the radio by itself, just your device that you sync to it via blue tooth. You have to launch Pandora through your device. As for the usb, I believe you have to select AUX through the menu function on the radio, and it should pick it up. I don't use the usb a lot !! Hope this helps. I will verify on my radio, and send you a detailed step by step if you like. Sincerely Steve martinez

I don't know if the music can be played via Pandora. It is my opinion, DO NOT BUY THIS UNIT. This is not worth the time and/or aggravation. You should spend the extra money and get a better product. As Matt as stated and being polite, it is a POS.

Don't use USB , go buy an auxiliary cord and use that works alot better and no hassle when you wanna play your jams , some stereos cannot recognize smartphones and it just makes it easier to use auxiliary

Yes! I often listen to Pandora from my Android in our house. The sound is great and it's easy to set up. We also use it a lot outdoors and when traveling. This is a great purchase.

I believe the only way to use Pandora is through a separate devise. I used my iPhone so not sure about Android. I used the radio on my boat. It was located in the cabin and still only lasted about a year after which the controls failed.

The USB is not compatible with Android. It will charge though. Not a strong charge though. I use both the AUX jack for audio and the USB for charging while in the car. Good enough.

You must:1. Have Pandora on your phone.2. Enable Pandora to work through your phone in the stereo's system settings.Hate to repost but it took me a while to figure this out too.If it is a new installation, I would try -> Setup, System, Bluetooth Setup, Paired device list, 'Your Device'. Once 'Your Device' is selected you should see a submenu to the right that says -> Telephone, Audio, and Pandora. Select the feature you want and you should see a small icon appear next to 'Your Device'. Here is a link to the manual http://manual.kenwood.com/files/GET0907-001A.pdf Page 57. Good Luck You must:1.

It's a receiver. I don't think the buttons on your stereo would send a signal to your phone to change the song on say, pandora, if you are using your phone to transmit the music to your car stereo aux input

Yes you should be able to pair your phone with the unit and then play the Pandora audio through it.
