Bluetooth Audi MMI Connectivity

Is anyone else having issues with MMI connection to the phone? Before the update I could browse my phone, now I can't. The dialed numbers, missed calls, etc. used to show names and now it's just phone numbers. Tried resetting both the car and the iPhone. No dice.

Audi '08 A3, RNS-E which is a flavor of MMI. iPhone 3G S seems to work fine, lots of options when you get to the Audi UHV device. I am not sure what they all do but I can use the MFSW to scroll the contacts as well as the Phone Directory on the RNS-E itself. There are also on/off settings for Phone Favorites and Phone Recents. There is a "Sync Contacts" on/off as well. All of these are in Bluetooth in the Audi UHV device. I am looking for documentation so if you can find any please respond here as I have subscribed to this thread. Thanks.

  • Bluetooth connection with audi MMI iphone 4 drops after software update 5.0.1

    Hello,
    After uptdating my iPhone 4 with software 5.0.1, I have problems with my bluetooth connection in my car (2006 Audi MMI). When I make a call or someone calls me, after a minute or so, the connection is lost for 10- 15 seconds, and then reconnects again. Pretty annoying.
    Someone got a solution?

    I got the exact same problem. Noticed in the morning while hoping to check out the extra features.
       Taking my lunch break now to research solutions...

  • IPhone 6 + Bluetooth + Audi Q5 = Not working

    It's pretty clear from the thousands? of posts that there's a serious issue with iPhone 6 (and plus) failing to work with previously ok bluetooth devices, especially cars.
    My iPhone 5 with iOS 8 and 8.0.2 worked flawlessly with our Audi Q5 (2011).  iPhone 6 struggles to pair and even when it does, it won't accept calls or use the "handsfree" audio.
    It also fails to work with my bluetooth headsets, so I can drive and talk on the phone at the same time.
    I've tried;
    1. Removing all bluetooth devices / pairings from the car.
    2. Removed the previous attempts at pairing with the car (on the phone).
    3. Reset my accounts.
    4. Changed the name of both the car and phone.
    Currently it's not possible to use my iPhone 6 (64gb) with our car, meaning any attempts to use a phone is dangerous.
    I think I'll return the phone and go back to my old iPhone 5.

    Hi Pedro,
    Thanks for the reply, but none of these solutions work.  Let's walk though each of these.
    To resolve the issue, you'll need to first sign in to iCloud and review your devices:
    My first question is why?  Why on earth do I need to sign into iCloud so that my Car, which is not connected to the internet or iCloud and connect to my iPhone (which also may not be connected to the internet)?   This is ridiculous!
    But I'll humor Apple for now and try (even though I've been through all of these steps).
    Sign in to iCloud on your iOS devices.
    On one of your devices, tap Settings > Bluetooth and look under My Devices. You'll see all devices that are connected to Bluetooth, but make sure that you see your Apple devices that are signed in to iCloud and are using iOS 8.
    Sign out of your iCloud account from any devices that you don't want to use. To sign out of iCloud on an iOS device, tap Settings > iCloud > Sign Out.
    Step 1.  Done
    Step 2. "On one of your devices..."  Which device?  My iPhone 6?   Sure.   No problem.  "You'll see all devices that are connected to Bluetooth".   Which device?  My iPhone 6?  My Car?  This is part of the problem!  The connections don't work!  I see no devices.
    Step 3. "Sign out of your iCloud account from any devices that you don't want to use."  Done.   Signed out of all of my iCloud accounts.   Makes no difference.
    Then, remove any inactive devices from iCloud:
    Sign in to iCloud.com.
    Select Find My iPhone.
    Select any devices that aren't active anymore.
    Wait for Find My iPhone to stop trying to find the inactive device.
    You should see the option to remove this device from your account. Select it to remove the device.
    The only devices that are listed are those that I want to use.
    After following the steps above, restart the device with the issue. Then try to use it with your Bluetooth accessory.
    Done that.  I shutdown my iPhone and Car numerous times.  Doesn't make any difference.
    When I do get the iPhone 6 and my Car to pair and sync (I have to set this up from scratch each and every day I've tried this), my car automatically thinks it's making a call as soon as it's "connected", to the last number I dialed.   However when I look at my iPhone it isn't making a call at all! 
    What's worse is that the iPhone essentially puts the Audi MMI system into a corrupted state, so much that I can't "hang up" the call it's thinking the iPhone is making from my car.   The only option is to disable bluetooth in my car all together so that Audi MMI navigation / audio / radio / car management system works again!
    Let me make this very clear, if I turn on and sync my iPhone 6 with my Audi Q5 over bluetooth, it essentially disables features of my car!

  • Why won't my new 5s work with my Audi (cable connection) or boombox even though my 5 did?

    My new iPhone 5s will not play music via my Boombox or my Audi car connection (using cable that connects where headphones connect) sound plays fine through apple headphones but if I connect up to the other devices it goes silent but no sound comes from the car or boombox, my iPhone 5 running the same operating system work perfectly OK?   Can anyone help with this as I am about to sell my iPhone 5 but am pretty miffed to now have a device that I can't connect up to listen to music.
    Thanks

    Other users have had the same problem.  Here are two possiblities:
    1)  get both the iPhone and Bluetooth in car to forget each other and then reintroduce as a new device.
    2)  It's possible that iOS7 has an updated Bluetooth that is not compatible with older versions used in cars.  Contact the dealer to see if there's an upgrade for the car's firmware.

  • My iPhone 6 doesn't work with Audi MMI adapter

    When I try to connect my iPhone 6 to the Audi MMI adapter in the glove compartment of my 2015 Q5, it shows up as a source on the media screen, but says there are no playable files.

    i should have stayed with android as it worked with uconnect....it even allowed my jeep to read the text messages to me and I could respond...now iphone 6 and software not working ... Apple aweful at support ...

  • Since updating my IPhone 4s to iOS8.1 it wont communicate with my Audi MMI system?

    Since updating my IPhone 4s to iOS8.1 it wont communicate with my Audi MMI system?  I can manually play music and podcasts from the phone by connecting and operating from the phone but it wont work handfree when connected.  Anyone have a solution?

    First, try rebooting it:
    Rebooting your iDevice
    Hold down the Sleep (On-Off) and Home buttons together for about 10-15 seconds or until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears - then let go of the buttons. The iPad should begin to start up.
    If that doesn't help then restore it: Backing up, updating, and restoring iPad, iPod touch, and iPhone software

  • Has Apple fixed the IOS to recover the heretofore compatibility with Audi MMI?

    I formerly was able to play my I Tunes music with the phone connected to the 2012 Audi MMI cable.  After an update the phone is no longer with compatible with the car. 

    What troubleshooting have you done?
    BTW, this is a user-to-user technical support forum. No one here would know what Apple did or did not do, or even if the problem is with iOS.

  • When bluetooth headset is connected to iphone,I can't hear iphone ringing aloud when I have a call or a text. Do i really have to wear the bluetooth headset all the time in my ear to know when I have a call or a message? Why it doesnt ring through iphone?

    when bluetooth headset is connected to iphone,I can't hear iphone ringing aloud when I have a call or a text. Do i really have to wear the bluetooth headset all the time in my ear to know when I have a call or a message? Why it doesnt ring through iphone but it rings through the bluetooth headsets?
    In other phones, you can hear the phone ringing and if it was connected to bluetooth, you could pick up the call from the bluetooth headset.
    Here with iphone, if its connected to bluetooth headset, it only rings through the headset, which means that if you dont have the headset in the ear all the time, you cannot know that you have an incoming call or message.
    Any ideas - solutions - comments please?

    I'm having the same problem. I had a plantronics 975 (which I lost, sadly). When connected, the ringer would always be routed through the bluetooth and the iPhone's external speaker. When in silent mode, the iPhone would only vibrate, but I could still hear the ringer in the bluetooth.
    I just bought a new Plantronics Voyager+. Now when it's connected, all sounds are routed to the earpiece - including the taps, etc. The iPhone's speaker doesn't ring at all, unless the bluetooth is disconnected or powered off. I'd really like to be able to hear both, like I was before. This is an iPhone 3G running iOS 4 (latest version, not sure what it is exactly). Haven't updated software/firmware in between bluetooths, just changed the earpiece.

  • Bose Bluetooth unable to connect to iPAD.

    Bose Bluetooth does not connect to iPad anymore.
    Used to work.  Now it doesn't connect.  Have reset both iPAD and Bose..Also have depressed the BT button to activate...no work
    Any suggestions welcome...thanks

    1. Hold Bluetooth button down for 3 seconds so that iPad can "see" the Soundlink (bluetooth light should fade in and out every second)
    2. Make sure it's within range
    3. Keep speaker away from router, cordless phone or microwave oven
    4. Keep it away from other Bluetooth device
    5. Make sure it's not muted
    6. Turn it off and on again
    7. Make sure volume is turned up

    Hallo!
    I sucsessfully set up an Bluetooth Internet GPRS connection in MacOS and my phone (SE W880i) added "MyName's Mac" record into its list of trusted devices.
    Then I loaded Windows XP SP2 on the same computer and tried to set up Bluetooth Internet GPRS connection there: I paired devices and my phone has OVERWRITEN "MyName's Mac" record, created during MacOS setup, as I think because Bluetooth MAC adress remain the same...

MacOS reported the it cannot initialize communication device... Then I reconfigured my phone in MacOS again and Internet worked fine until rebooting to Windows XP, which reported that it cannot open COM port because it's busy...

  • IPhone 5 the bluetooth isn't connecting on phone or to car it drops off all the time

    please help lately my bluetooth on iPhone 5 doesn't stat connected. I tries the soft reboot,and reset. I power off and power on it only works for a few minutes.

    Hi AMRS11,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The article linked below has some great tips that should be able to help you resolve the intermittent Bluetooth connection issue that you described.
    iOS: Troubleshooting Bluetooth connections
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4562
    Bluetooth disconnects, intermittent connectivity, or unable to find
    Move your iOS device closer to the Bluetooth accessory.
    Position your iOS device and Bluetooth accessory in direct line of sight of each other. For example, move the Bluetooth accessory and iOS device to the same side of your body.
    Remove any case, stand, or other accessories from your iOS device and see if performance improves.
    Check for sources of potential interference and move both the iOS device and the Bluetooth accessory away from other electronic devices.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Note: This will reset all network settings including: previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords, recently used Bluetooth accessories, VPN, and APN settings.
    If your device is still experiencing issues
    If the steps above have not resolved the Bluetooth behavior you are experiencing, perform a software restore in iTunes.
    If the issue persists after restoring your iOS device in iTunes, contact Apple for support and service options.
    Notes:
    If needed, refer to your Bluetooth accessory documentation or manufacturer for assistance.
    Some Bluetooth accessories may require a firmware update for full compatibility with iOS devices such as a firmware update for AVRCP 1.4 Bluetooth compatibility.
    Cheers!

  • IPhone5 bluetooth can not connect to macbook air?

    hi
    my iPhone5 bluetooth can not connect to macbook air (mid 2012).
    is bluetooth on iPhone 5 designed so that it CANT connect to computers? 
    thanks

    Yes, BT on the iPhone only has profiles for hands-free, audio, tethering and control. It does not support file transfer profiles.

  • IPhone 5's Bluetooth Not Staying Connecting For Continuity Support on Yosemite

    Devices:
    Macbook Pro Mid-2010 running OSX 10.10.2
    Iphone 5 running iOS 8.1.3
    *NOTE: I understand that due to the version of the Bluetooth protocol in my machine, not all continuity features are available (Handoff, Air Drop, MBP Instant Hotspot)
    However SMS to IMessage and the ability to make and receive calls from my Mac should be OK according to Apple's system requirements one-sheeter:
    System requirements for Continuity on iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac - Apple Support
    ================================================================================ =====================
    Here's my problem.
    I finally took the plunge last night and updated my iPhone 5 from 7.1 to 8.1.3 to access the iCloud Drive and additional continuity features integrated into Yosemite.
    When I tried to pair my iPhone 5 with my MBP over Bluetooth, all seemed to go well for the first 5 seconds.
    - Both devices were in discovery mode.
    - Mac saw the phone and displayed a security code
    - iPhone displayed the same security code and asked if I would like to pair with MBP
    - Pairing took place. Each devices Bluetooth profile / device showed up in my MBP Bluetooth's Preferences  and in my iPhone's Bluetooth.
    - 5 seconds later, there's no connection between devices.
    My iPhone displays:
    "Connection Unsuccessful: Make sure [Macbook Pro] is turned on and in range." (The phone is 5 inches away)
    Then sometimes I get this message:
    "Connection Unsuccessful: [Macbook Pro] is not supported.
    No rhyme or reason between the two either.
    Here's the baffling part: When I activate my Phone's HotSpot function, the Bluetooth works and connects with my MBP allowing it to use my cell phone network's data for internet connectivity.
    I don't understand what is going on or how to correct this? Can anyone succinctly explain how to correct this problems in layman terms?
    If the devices can communicate long enough to exchange security codes and verify their identities, then use Hotspot,  there is clearly a data exchange happening. Where is the break down taking place when it comes time to stay connected to so I can continue to use the limited continuity features.
    I've seen this question posted before by people having problems with many different model years of MBP including the most recents models, so I know it's not mutually exclusive to my model year, but cannot seem to find clarity on an answer.

    I wish Apple would have provided more detail on how it worked. I wouldn't have posted this if I new that SMS & Mac Calling had nothing to do with Bluetooth pairing.
    You mean like this? Get help using Continuity with iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite
    Please note how Apple articulates this though.
    Check your settings
    Check the following settings on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
    Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn on Wi-Fi if necessary.
    Make sure your iOS devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network by going to Settings > Wi-Fi and comparing the name of the network each is on.
    Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn on Bluetooth if necessary.
    Go to Settings > General > Handoff & Suggested Apps and make sure Handoff is on.
    Go to Settings > Phone. If you see Wi-Fi Calling, turn it off.
    Sometimes things have to be explained in more detail for the general consumer who has been conditioned for decades to think about wireless  cellphone audio / light data to [anything other device else] connectivity in a certain fashion. That is to say Bluetooth dependent ...
    For the non-technical person, which overwhelmingly many Apple users are, they would see that bulleted point and think if Bluetooth is not paired and active, then they would not received the full scope of their Continuity features.
    It would have been better for the copywriter who wrote this to (*) footnote this entry and explain that while Bluetooth recognition may be necessary between Yosemite and iPhone, SMS Push to iMessage and Mac Calling does not require an actively paired connection as these functions are dependent on iCloud and both devices being registered on the same WiFi network.
    Thank you to all who helped me get my mind around and figure this out.
    It has also opened my eyes to how iCloud has become a critical link in Apple's overall walled garden  and business strategy.
