Boom Box 4.3 Issue
I have an issue with my boom box losing the bluetooth and USB connection after long periods of time. Like, after several hours of riding. So, in long form here is the issue.
I connect my phone to the USB for charging, meanwhile I connect via USB to run my Amazon app for music. Everything works fine and does so for at least 4 or 5 hours. After that something happens really strange. The Music from Amazon stops playing and the radio switches to the USB and stars playing the music direct from the phone...for a few seconds then it switches to the radio. I can get it back to the Amazon music via bluetooth but in a minute or two it will do the whole thing over again.
If I shut the bike down for a while (long enough to have lunch) I can resume playing music from the phone via bluetooth for a few hours again.
I think something may be overheating but the phone isn't warm or anything. Is this just some kind of timeout mechianism? Anyone else have an issue like this.

IDK but if I were to guess, I'd be thinking it's an issue with the streaming software via BT (I know you stated streaming via USB, but I suspect it's streaming via BT; don't think streaming works via USB) on the phone. I've seen similar time out issue streaming music to external BT speakers at home.

The USB is not streaming, it's pulling the files from my memory card on the phone which is plugged directly to the USB port.
Then that also drops and goes to radio.

i agree sounds like the phone or program your running is time limited. When I rock out i heart radio here at work after 4 hours it shuts down the music also. I have to go into it and hit play again and it starts right back up where it was at.
Next time it does it restart it right away (whatever your using to play the music from) and see what it does.

Sorry, left that tidbit out. If I restart it (even turn off the radio completely) it does the exact same think in about a minute. I agree, it's probably the phone and not really a big issue, just wondered if anyone else had this issue. I think it's around the 4 or 5 hour mark of continuous use before it happens.

Mine interrupts when a message comes in but goes right back after a short pause. I unchecked "phone" on my bluetooth settings on my phone and that doesn't seem to be a problem now.
