Bluetooth audio streaming in your X1

Seeing so many people got there Bluetooth Audio streaming working in other models... Have you got it working for your X1? Frustrating to use the cable method, feeling this usb socket will ware out.

I have a uk 2014 x-line x-drive LCI with the business navigation (non pro) installed. The phones I've tried to get this working with is on Apple 4s, 6 and a Samsung Galaxy 5s. Could only get the telephone connection to work.

For Iphone 5S (and I gues 5 and 6) the X1 does go funny.
Thank god I got a HD in the car for the MP3's and my phone conversations and Waze (radar POI's) works fine true bluetooth.

I thought BT only worked if you had the "Tech" package?
