Am I able to plug in a flash drive and the radio read the files? Or do I need to hook a phone up to it?

Yes, It Will Show the Current Title Of The Song Playing, But It Will Not Show A List Of Files On The Flash Drive.

Yes, I have used the rear USB port to play MP3 files and display will show file names. Very cool feature making the unit more useful.

Unfortunately, no. There is not a plug or USB to hook up this device to a computer. There are several cheap or free apps if you have a smart phone which track all of your information, which is better.

Yes, just like any USB. You can play from your phone through bluetooth also. This unit has awesome sound for its size.

Good question. I believe the USB port on the front of the radio is for reading music files from a USB memory stick. To double check, I did plug-in a USB cable and tried to charge my phone, with radio both on and off. There was no charging indicated on my smart phone. So I think it's just a passive USB port for inputting music files. Maybe someone else has additional information?

If you have internet access and whatever else you need to play the music then yes. You can play music through the headphone jack on this though, the USB doesn't play the audio. Also, as long as your car has a radio and one of those cigarette lighter things you should be able to use it.

I haven't been able to get ANY radio stations on mine. So I use it mainly with a USB Flash Drive. I can use my radio in the car and record the songs and play them in the house. It works okay for me that way.

Not for iPod/iPhone only; you can connect a flash drive to the USB port for music playback. You can also connect an mp3 player to the AUX port (it's next to the USB port); set the V377 to its AUX channel and you're all good. If your V377 is connected by way of HDMI to your television, you can see onscreen what's on the flash drive, and you can use the V377 remote to control playback.

There is a usb port on the top of the cabinet next to an apple port. When input is set to usb the receiver starts reading the flashdrive and begins to play mp3 and wma (and possibly other) files.

I downloaded files to SD card. I know there is option to use USB, but it I never tried it

Yes. It relies on your phone's GPS for nav apps. There's no other GPS connection. It also plays music and display photos and videos from your phone. Aside from the connected phone, its only media is the disk player. The USB jack doesn't read files directly off a USB drive.
