[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8860531, member: 674149"] Are you using a dual 3.5mm jack cable, headphone output on the phone to a 3.5mm input on the head unit? I've just never had a problem with RCA or USB (full size) connections, and I almost always do with those. There are plenty of ways to charge a pho Here's what I did to mine: I have an extra accessory circuit I used. It's 12V, and I used a stepdown converter to 5v for the charger. Ran a USB cable, drilled a hole through the bezel. Used a grommet around to not damage the wire, and this ball mount. [MEDIA=amazon]B08X7J9D5Z[/MEDIA] This has threads for a 1/4-20 bolt, and screwed in from the back with a washer so it's secure. That 17mm ball is what most items use, gps, garmin, phone chargers, etc... I never use my phone for music, I just put it on a flash drive. Might be worth considering if you're not streaming. I bought this and took it apart to break the speaker off so, it wouldn't beep at me when the phone is in, and I shut it off. [MEDIA=amazon]B082X33W82[/MEDIA] There are similar mounts that will even connect and charge. Otherwise, there are plenty of head units with front and rear USB connections. I always suggest kenwood excelons: Easy to use and navigate, this line all has (3) 5v preouts, You really shouldn't have a problem finding a mount that can charge and connect to your head unit. Mine charges, and all I have to do is set the phone in the cradle, it senses and the sides clamp down to secure. If your head unit has a USB connection, it sounds like you just need a mount that can charge and connect if otherwise you are happy with the head unit. If not, I would find a phone mount that will connect by USB, and then you should be able to get both. [/QUOTE]
