So, you can't play music from your phone via bluetooth over your truck's speakers?

And then you tried to connect your phone via a UPS cable to play music and it won't play music?

I had the smaller touchscreen in my truck and it would connect and disconnect all the time. I ended up just replacing it with a aftermarket radio and never looked back

I'm having a problem in the same area in my 2014 Laramie, 8.4(?) With nav.

I can use Bluetooth with the Uconnect, works music and phone. But when I try the USB in the center console, it doesn't work. It gives me a message, but I don't recall exact verbage.

If your phone is playing music Bluetooth, but not plugged in to usb, turn Bluetooth off, I think the signal gets confused in the radio, had same problem with my 13 ram
