Another MDI question

Post by JordanHowie »

Just purchased my scirocco and when i have connected my samsung s4 to the usb and then connected to the usb connecter into the MDI in the centre console.
A message then appears on the radio touch screen saying "DEVICE NOT SUPPORTED"
Is there a cable out there that pugs the samsung s4 device straight into the MDI slot and would this cure this fault.
Thanks in advance

There must be an actual lead that connects straight to our phones?

Yup. Either that or maybe the stereos we have can't deal with newer phones from a certain period onwards
