Bluetooth streaming

Bluetooth streaming
I have a 2011 XJ. I am able to play music from my iPhone via Bluetooth but I cannot use the Jaguar audio system to select music, it does not display the "Browse" button. The only way I can control music selection is on the iPhone itself. If I plug the iPhone into the USB port it does display the "Browse" button and I can select albums, artists, etc from the screen. My question is, is this correct behavior? It makes no sense to provide Bluetooth streaming but not allow control from the screen.

According to the manual...
PLAYING A PORTABLE DEVICE
If you are using a USB mass storage device or
approved iPod, you can control playback using
the touch screen controls.
If you are using a Bluetooth® device, you can
control playback using the touch screen, but
some controls are unavailable.

Go to the X150 Forum and search for ACM - Audio Connectivity Module, a dealer-installed accessory for 2007 and 2008 models to enable iPod connectivity integrated with the touchscreen, which became standard equipment beginning with the 2009 models. That ACM does not include Bluetooth music streaming; only iPod and USB music connectivity. I use my old 5th Gen. iPod Nano in my 2009 XKR for virtually all of my music.

If you want advanced functionality get a Tune2Air, in my XK that is what we use for my Wife's phone connect to the car. It provides bluetooth streaming along with full wireless Ipod functionality on the screen, pause/play/browse.
If you go this route you would plug the Tune2Air WMA2000 into your USB port in the car, permanently unpair the streaming audio to the Jaguar, then pair the streaming audio to the Tune2Air device. You would leave the Phone portion of your device still paired with the car. This is the way we have my Wife's Iphone setup, works real nice handshaking from phone call with car Bluetooth back to the Tune2Air after call.
If you have a spare 30 pin cable laying around (must be genuine Apple cable, off brands will not work), you can get the less expensive WMA1000.

This is correct behavior for the majority of streaming devices, it is the equivalent of plugging a headphone cable/Aux In line to your phone.

Funny thing about the Tune2Air. I used one in my old XF for several years and was very pleased with its functionality. I installed it in my '11 XJ and I can't get it to work at all. I wish I could get it to work since it does everything I want and the built-in Bluetooth in my Jag is very limited.

I've discovered another quirk of the Bluetooth connectivity in my '11 XJ. You can't have the iPhone connected as a phone at the same time as connection for streaming. Every time I try to use the streaming it says it is unable to connect. If I disconnect the phone it will connect for streaming. Anyone else notice this. It doesn't make sense to me.
