6230i Bluetooth Connection to GPS

I cannot connect my 6230i to a Falcom NAvi 1 GPS. The Nokia see's the GPS but cannot pair to it saying security failed. The Falcom GPS pairs successfully to my Siemens 720 PDA. The falcom manual ( http://www.haid-services.de/assets/own/navi-1-user-manual.pdf ) says that a code of 1111 is required if a secure connection is selected which I tried.
It seems that the falcom will work without a secure connection however it appears the Nokia does not support this.
How do I get the two to communicate!

Did reset the GPS. Tried using an older Nokiaof my friends and it actually completely resets when trying to establish a connection with the Falcon GPS!. Shows you that Nokia software skill leave a lot to be desired. I suspect Nokia conlu works with a secure connection to any bluetooth device and the gPS does not allow secure connections.

6230i Bluetooth connectivity problems

Sorry for long posting...
I have recently purchased a 6230i to replace my 6310i.
I previously used a CA-42 USB cable for the 6310i but that is reported by the 6230i as incompatible - grrh.
And now I am trying to set up the Bluetooth connectivity.
I have (eventually) managed to get the 6230i paired to my Laptop using a Belkin USB Bluetooth and the Belkin software running on WinXP (IBM T41 laptop). PC Suite runs but seems to be a little unreliable over Bluetooth - will address that by sourcing a DKU-2 cable.
However, I have problems with pairing the 6230i with my Sony HBH-600 headset (works perfectly with 6310i) I can get the 6230i to discover the headset either by searching for audio enhancements or by setting up a new pair, however it always fails to set up the connection (never asks for passkey).
Similarly I cannot get my Ipaq 5550 to pair with the 6230i. I can start the pairing from the Ipaq which finds the 6230i but the 6230i never acknowledges the pairing attempt which then fails. If I start the pairing process from the 6230i it finds the Ipaq and attempts to pair but never asks to setup a passkey - the Ipaq does not seems to receive the pairing attempt.
I have set the auto connect option to yes and no with no difference.
Any suggestions ?
Needless to say all this worked perfectly with the 6310i.

Further to original post
The Bluetooth connectivity all works between the IBM T41, Ipaq 5550, Sony HBH600 headset and a Nokia 6810 phone.
So the problem appears to be the Nokia 6230i phone.
Further research gives some rather disapointing information.
http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?contentid=2629
If you have problems performing pairing between an iPAQ 1940/2210 and the Nokia 6230 and continually get an error similar to "Cannot pair devices for security reasons" then it's related to the problem outlined in that document.
This is a Hardware issue and not a software issue related to the WIDCOMM BTW-CE Product. There are two types of keys that can be used for pairing:
- Combination keys
- Unit keys
The key type that is used is pre-set in the Bluetooth Radio Firmware. The WIDCOMM BTW-CE Bluetooth software
does not control this setting. The radio on the iPAQ 1940 uses unit keys by default. These Nokia phones reject the use of unit keys in pairing because it is not as secure as combination keys.
Users of older HP iPAQ models should check the HP Drivers page for the latest OS or Bluetooth software for their devices.
I note that my Ipaq is older than the two models mentioned and that my headset is 16 months old. So it looks as if the 6230i is going back - stupid no backwards compatibility.

6230i bluetooth connection

6230i bluetooth connectivity

Greetings
My bluetooth says that it is on but there is no icon in the top left corner. I have taken the battery out and rebooted it is now stuck on off. I also took the memmory card out and out it back again. I have been reading posts on this subject, so it seems a common problem. The bluetooth has worked intermitently in the past I am just not sure what series of keys I tried to get it to work. PTT may have something to do with this.
*#0000# results in:

I have been to my service provider for help and a few other cell phone repair places but nobody seems to be able to fix this. It has been suggested that the phone is sent back to Nokia since it is 8 months old and under warranty but 6 weeks is too long for me to be without a phone. Any suggestions?
Thank you
Angie

well, it does and it doesnt
it all comes down to what your headet and your pc want to use.
sosul is quite correct, the 6230i does not support multiple bluetooth connections. however, if you have two devices that require different profiles you may be able to connect.
now maybe is a keyword here, the other is battery life - it will drop v fast.
a lot of nokia's newer phones can support multiple connections though.

I have an IPad mini WiFi (not cellular) and an IPhone 5. I use the bluetooth connection between both devices when on the road. I downloaded a navigation system on my IPad using GPS positioning. Is Bluetooth OK to use GPS positioning on the IPad?

Bluetooth connection problem with nokia 6230i

Hi I am having troubles establishing a Bluetooth connection between my Nokia 6230i and my Dell Latitude laptop running on Windows XP SP2 when trying to use Nokia PC Suite. When using the nokia suite connection wizard it establishes a connection for a fraction of a second and then disconnects.
The following information may be useful??
Windows XP Pro SP2
Nokia PC Suite 6.5.12
Microsoft BT Stack 5.1.2600.2180
WIDCOMM BT Stack 3.0.1 build 803
Can any one help please??
Thanks

You could try uninstalling the Widcomm Bluetooth and relying only on Microsoft + PC Suite 6.6.18 from http://www.nokia.com/pcsuite

Bluetooth connection to car hands free

i have a motorola car hands free kit installed with my old 6230i the connection was automatic but i now have a 5500 sport this needs to be re-installed every time i get into my van does anyone know why or is the sport a H.O.S

If you try resetting your motorola car kit ( i dont know how) then pair your phone again this should work. also in your phone bluetooth settings see if you can change the motorola kit to automatically authuorise connections. It sound like the kit is still looking for your 6230i which needs to be deleted.

IOS 8.1.2 car bluetooth connection

I have lost the Bluetooth connectivity in my 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe since I updated my phone to iOS 8.1.2. I have tried to reset car Bluetooth features as well as on my phone. Nothing seems to work. Is anyone else having issues and are there any solutions?
tx

Similar to VroomVroom: I have iphone 5s, was on iOS7, went to iOS 8.1.2, and I didn't notice that I had lost a specific bluetooth connection: Garmin Smartlink - Live Traffic App. The Garmin Smartlink uses bluetooth to connect to the aftermarket Kenwood DNX891HD I have in my car, this comes with a Navigation GPS included. The Garmin Smartlink app (Live Traffic) provides immediate traffic updates if your city is covered, and my city Cincinati OH is covered. This was all working fine before I upgraded the iOS on the iphone 5S. I read another article related to "carkit" connections between iphones and car stereos (for both NAV and also hands-free) - here is the key point and my theory: Only ONE bluetooth connection can be supported at a time. In my case - the hands-free telephone (thru car microphone and car stereo speakers) works fine, and I believe this is also "shared" by Pandora App (from iphone to Kenwood). So, my theory is the iphone will not connect to the Kenwood for the Nav, since it is already connected to the Kenwood for the audio (Pandora and hands-free, I think these two "share" the same bluetooth connection, and I think the Smartlink connection is separate). I messed around this morning in the parking lot at work, and my attempts to "forget" and "pair" the iphone and Kenwood would continously start playing Pandora, but the Smartlink still will not connect (when it dis work, I would see a green circle with two cars on my Nav map screen, indicating the smartlink connection and also status of the traffic). My next test this afternoon will be to delete Pandora app on the phone, try forget / pair again and see if I can get Smartlink to work. If this works, I'll reinstall Pandora App and try to get it back as well. My past 24 hours of skimming articles (don't ya love the internet !) seems to indicate that I am not the only person with bluetooth problems due to the iOS 8.1.2 update....hey Apple...where's 8.1.3 to fix this ?

Macbook Pro bluetooth connection to iPhone 4.

I just purchased a Macbook Pro (latest edition) and it will not establish a bluetooth connection with my iPhone. Keep receiving the following error: The bluetooth network is unavailable... I check the phone and I have the bluetooth turned on. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Unfortunately, although you can Pair the iPhone with your MBP it only offers a limited range of functions and you can't connect to it as a network device. Don't ask me why Apple have crippled it this way ...
Mine connects happily to my GPS and two helmet headsets and, while it's been paired and shows:
AVRCP Device
Audio Source
Handsfree Gateway
PAN Network Access Point
Phonebook
PnP Information
Service Discovery
Wireless iAP
It always comes up "Blutooth Network Not Available" when I try and connect.
You should be able to pair if you run Bluetooth setup Assistant though ?
If you're after 'tethering' i.e using the iphone as your Internet access then this is dependent on your ISP allowing/enabling it. On the iPhone open Settings/Network and turn Personal Hotspot On and it will show you the password for connection. On the MBP (System Preferences/Network) you will then see 'yourname's iPhone' as a connection option for your current location and you can enter the password there - but be aware that carrier data charges and plan limits will apply! My 2GB mobile plan data gets eaten very quickly this way.

Want to connect car GPS receiver to iPhone 3GS

Hi,
Getting a little tired with the unreliability of the iPhone 3GS GPS reception in the car so I wondered if I could connect the receiver that is already built into the car. I changed the head unit (the SatNav was pretty basic anyway) for a Pioneer that allows me to control and play music through the car stereo from my iPhone and also lets me make calls via Bluetooth. Is it possible to get a Y splitter that would also allow me to connect the GPS receiver to give me more reliable Satellite Navigation?
Hoping somebody out there can help me.
Steve.

Confirmation of connection to GPS unit required?

A Garmin Nüvi 760 is bluetooth connected to my E71 phone.
When connection is established everything works perfect.
Why do I have to confirm the connection everytime I want to drive my car?
On Nokia N73 a possibility in the bluetooth connection gave the choice - not to give confirmation of the connection, but just connect. Is that not possible on the Nokia E71 ?

C3-00 Failed bluetooth connection

After quite a bit of fiddling around , I successfully got my C3 to connect reliably via Bluetooth and sync with Ovi. It's been working well for about a month ?
I connected tonight and performed a sync and backup. Closed OVI..all looked good. A while later I wanted to re connect and the bluetooth connection failed saying the pairing needed to be ' updated ' ? I wasn't sure what that meant , so I thought I would delete the pairing and re ad it.
When I try to do that via the phone , my computer shows up but when I try to ad it as a paired device , it fails.
If I scan using the computer , the phone also appears in the bluetooth list , but when I try do connect I receive a 'generic ' error msg:
Adding the device failed due to an authentication error. It might be due to the use of an incorrect pairing code......"
I don't see a prompt to enter a pairing code ( as I did originally when I first connected successfully ). Not sure what to try next ? Will restoring my back also restore my pairing , or do I need to do a reset and start from scratch ?
TIA

Is there any issues with the hardware or software on the 6230i that can be resolved simply?

TS2634 Bluetooth connectivity problems

My bluetooth connected Garmin Glo Gps no longer works properly after updating ios. It showls the device is connected, but doesn't function when using moving map programs such as foreflight or garmin pilot. I'm using ios 6.1.2. It works with other ipads.

Actually, it's the other way around: Bluetooth interferes with wi-fi

N81 Bluetooth connection problem

Hi, I have the N81 8gb, I have only had the phone for two days but I am experiencing a problem when it tries to automatically connect to my Pioneer DEH-P85BT bluetooth car radio. It finds the phone, connects to it, then immediately disconnects, my Nokia E65 connects straight away with no problem. I have paired the N81 with the radio and set it as authorised, I have set the car radio to automatically connect to the N81 and registered the phone with the radio, but am still having the problem. Has anyone any ideas I can try to solve this problem.

Well, I dont know but I remember thyat one person said that bluetooth became inactive when using the gps. I dont know is this may apply for your case but on somehow it seemed that there were a conflict between both of them.
No I dont know if you are receiving the gps position via bluetooth from another device or are you sendind via bluetooth from a gps on the same device.

Bluetooth connectivity again....

I add myself to the list of people having trouble with their Bluetooth connection.
I haven't been able to solve my problem by scanning throug this forum.
I can't connect to my 6230i with my Trust BT120 Bluetooth USB adapter.
The odd thing is that the driver installs ok. I can transfer files to and from the phone. When I try to use Nokia PC-suite then I don't get anything when trying to configure the Bluetooth connection. The program finds nothing.
Any suggestions????
Here's what I get from the PC Suite info box:
