2013 XS, Aux USB connection to phone

Chaps

I have a 2013 XS which has the sat nav and the centre console at the back has a USB and AUX in connection.

Question is, I cant find a lead to connect my samsung phone ???

Needs USB to charge the phone, AUX to transfer the music.

Even Marshals Cambridge had no idea....got to be easier than this ??

Help please Big Cry

Can't you play music via Bluetooth and charge the phone using the USB?

Works with my iPhone 5

If your aux in is 3.5mm jack socket, then you need to connect this to the headphone socket on your phone with a 3.5mm male to male lead.
Charging will be via a usb lead.

I like the idea of bluetooth but when the phone syncs via bluetooth it has no music or video from the phone. Could buy a seperate lead to do more usic but two leads ?? Bit much. 2007 HSE, Auto, silver...gone but never forgotten.

Simple. Use a phone mount that has a built in charger, the Brodit Active mount for example. Then you only need to plug in the auxiliary cable. This will give both music and the incoming call will be dealt with by the phone via the car speakers. My S4 microphone works fine too.
No connection to Brodit, I just happen to have one and know that they work!

So...if you go to the little + sign next to music you can change input from aux-usb-Bluetooth, works great.

It's not obvious that the + is a seperate button....or maybe it's just me

Thanks for all your help 2007 HSE, Auto, silver...gone but never forgotten.
