Sometimes my Samsung S5 will connect and I am able to use Pandora, other times not. What gives? Bluetooth is always on. I get a message that says "Tether error" where the Pandora box is. Tried resetting the system by pressing and holding the volume button for 3 seconds, also turned off and back on bluetooth on my phone. Today I opened the app on my phone and still nothing.

This is on a 2014 IS 350 AWD F Sport.

I still havent quite mastered the bluetooth settings with this car To get it as smooth as i hope to get it to be.

Lately, i have been trying to integrate the enform app with the car when using pandora and sometimes there are some kinks.

You need to have the app open on the phone wheter it be enform or the pandora app itself before it will tether with the phone. i have been trying to get the car to open the app itself but havent been unsuccessful and have to leave the app running in the background of my phone so i dont have to open it again to tether.

Then there is the issue when i switch between sources sometimes it will be linked and tethered but audio feed is lost. To correct this ive had to hit the pause button then play again on the bluetooth source.
A few times ive lost audio feed from my phone when i used phone gps or youtube and has to turn off/on bluetooth but it worked right after.

I have found that the Bluetooth and OS in general fails miserably in the 3rd generation I250 & I350. I have paired both my Galaxy Note 4 and iPhone 6 and they are both unstable often. It something I have learned to just deal with it. I've said this before, my wife has a 2012 Hyundai Sonata and it's BT functionality is leaps and bounds better than Lexus. Such a shame.
