Not sure if the problem is on the bike or phone end (likely software related). I haven't had any drops that I've heard. Another option is to just plug the phone in and you'll be charging simultaneously. On short jaunts I usually just use the bluetooth, but on longer rides I usually plug it in, especially if I'm streaming something like Pandora.

I just put a 16gig thumb drive on the front USB. The screen now shows a pic of the cd cover and the fidelity is much better. Rock n Roll.

That's fine if the phone (Note 3) fit in the jukebox.

You can also get a flash drive usb adapter to fit your type of memory card. Put your card in the adapter and plug it into the usb plug on the bike. I use 1 GB micro SD cards and put different type of music on each card. I got a small wallet to which holds 6 SD cards and when I feel like a change of music I just change the card. a 1GB card hold approx. 170 songs which can last all day.

Charcoal Pearl 2014 Street Glide Special
Custom Dynamics red LED's and Dynamic Rings with smoked lenses.
Vance & Hines Monster Ovals. HD Heavy Elite air cleaner.
Precision Billet Darkside floorboards, Derby and Points covers.
Kuryakyn curved license plate holder, Transformer grips.
HD Fork mounted Wind Deflectors. 10" HD Windsplitter windshield.
4 point docking hardware.

Standard iphone 30p cable is a PITA to stuff in there - I bought an off brand 3" long cable, it works fine and charges the phone and is easy to fit in there.

And it'll still be a fraction of the size of the Note 3. You have bluetooth, just keep that cinder block in your saddlebag...problem solved.
