If you bluetooth your phone to the fusion radio can you control the music from the stereo or only by the phone?

I'm running headless, with the amplifier's volume knob and a switch for power to both the amp and the bluetooth module being my only physical controls. As Jeffrey said, it auto mutes for phone calls which is handy.

So far it is only by the phone. The skip ahead feature on the Fusion does not seem to work. Of course volume works from the Fusion and it auto mutes for a phone call so that is kind of neat.

My Fusion receiver is hooked directly into a class-d amplifier so the only control I have at the stereo end is volume. I would imagine that if the Fusion is plugged into a stereo head unit that all of the the controls - volume, balance, treble, bass, etc. - should function on the stereo as well as on your phone. The phone is just acting as a preamp.

Either. I use my iphone and usually control it from there but I recall you have some basic control from unit as well....Like selecting playlists etc. It is easier to use the phone to control phone functions.

Yes but the rest operates poorly. The only BT device that works with this radio is the MS-BT100. It only allows you to pause, play, FF, song display etc from your smartphone ONLY! It renders those buttons on your radio itself useless. The only thing you will be able to control from the radio face is the volume basically turning that 5" radio on your dash into nothing more than a volume button. Before this I had an iPhone 4s that worked great with the 30 pin adapter but after upgrading to the iPhone 6 this is my only option. If you have a iPhone 5 or later buy a fusion radio that is comparable with the MS-bt200 thus allowing you full control of your music from the radio dash.

I haven't installed my unit yet, but I assume the answer is yes. I keep my music on my phone and intend to connect to the stereo unit via bluetooth in order to avoid having to run a wire from the unit to my device. If you're not using bluetooth, I believe you will always have a "wired" connection with the stereo unit.

I am not certain I understand your question. Basically when you turn the unit on, it should sync with the Bluetooth on your phone or device. if a call comes in and you are playing something, the phone call is taken and turns off the music etc. note that the unit does not have a microphone, so the phone mic will pick up the voice. I usually switch to the phone speaker instead, so I can be heard, instead of it playing thru the speakers of the vehicle. hope this helps.

while having your phone connected to this can you change the songs with the remote control?

You can control it through both but mainly through the iPod or iPhone. There is limited functionality through the cars radio. I can advance songs on a playlist and skip around but it does not show me what is playing.

If you turn the device sound up loud you can control it from the blue tooth device, mine is an ipad.

The only way to use the stereo bluetooth to make a phone call is through the mic that is supplied with the unit. This is the only make it truly handsfree.

only music can be played over bluetooth, you can control pausing, track forward and backward only. And if you plug in with the additional cable you can use pandora, music(with artist, album, track selection) and some video output from youtube, videos, and some navigation apps.

Do you want to play the music from your phone?When your phone is connected to a bluetooth, it directs the music and calls through it. Depending on your phone, you can send the music through one bluetooth and call through another bluetooth. Or when you get a call, you can disconnect the call from bluetooth.

Nope. Just your phone needs to be able to connect to Bluetooth. The transmitter goes off the radio.

Usually volume control is not device specific. Bluetooth speakers allow control from devices like an iPhone 5 or an android phone. You should be able to control the speaker volume from your phone.

Yes... Although once it is connected you can only control the music using the iPod, not the car stereo.

I installed the app on my phone but the device, the stereo is not listed. I'm assuming that this is because the stereo is not Blutooth enabled. Hope this helps.

I believe the stereo feature is only available through the app, through bluetooth, not wired. That means iOS and Android only.

You cannot do this with bluetooth since it only replaces the speakers of you phone and has limited controls of the device
