Bluetooth car radio problems

Hi guys
Have recently fitted an MEX-BT2900 to my car, everything is working fine, iPhone is syncing fine, audio is playing over bluetooth fine, but when i try to make a call, they can hear me but i cant hear them, any ideas??

Hello,
Welcome to the User Discussion Forums.
Incoming BT phone conversations will only come through the Left front speaker as that is nearest the driver. Verify your settings and connections to make sure you don't only have sound going to your rear speakers.

            Hi imissmn,
The details from Ann154 are pretty good ways to begin. You can check if the iPhone 5 is compatible by checking the car manufacture's website. You can also provide us with the car make, model and year along with the bluetooth technology (is the manufacture makes more than one). We want to confirm your device details so please let us know as quick as can be.
Thank you,

N96 Nokia Maps "Voice" & Bluetooth car radio.

Hi, I have a problem with Nokia Maps voice and Bluetooth car radio. Although the N96 voice call works well through the car radio (tevion md 814508, Bluetooth version 1.2) the nokia maps "voice' does not come through. Also I would like to stream my phones MP3 music as well.
Any ideas?

Hi confiture
A bit of an update.
Like johndub in his post I've found that if I switch the car stereo to aux I do hear a voice but really crackly and distorted. You can't really tell what 'he' is saying. Play some music with Car Menu/Music Player and it's clear. Switch the stereo to radio (or off) and the voice is gone.
This obviously is quite a bug. Nokia not being exactly 'joined up' when it comes to their hardware and software releases again possibly?
"If you start car menu and do not activate the music player, instead move straight to navigation, selecting your route etc then it will mute the radio and send the guidance down the mono channel like a phone call"
Unfortunately I can assure you this doesn't happen.
I have noticed there is a software update for the CK-300 but I don't have the correct cable for the job. Any idea where I could get this done? I found a link for Nokia installers on here a while ago but I'll be damned if I can find it now

After ios6 update, I have lost all control of audio via Bluetooth, plus my Bluetooth car radio is no longer displaying track information from the iPhone. Help!

Hi there,
You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
Nathan

I am thinking of buying a Silvercrest CRB - 530 Bluetooth Car Radio from Lidl. It comes with bluetooth mic etc. Will it work with my iphone 3GS please help????

Hi.
Silvercrest CRB-530 Bluetooth from Lidl works great with iPhone 3GS. Bought this Radio a few days ago and installed in a few minutes. Radio connects with IPhone in a few second by signal of car-ignition.
Only the voice-dial is not supported. Re-Dial works fine.

N8 Bluetooth car kit problem

After some tests and research, it seems that:
- N8 don't sync phonebook with the most recent Audi and BMW built-in Bluetooth car kits (but seems to work with some Mercedes models).
- The antenna signal communication doesn't work either.
- Some times (about 1 out of 3) the answer of an incoming call is not handled correctly by the BT car kit.
- Just phone pairing and basic call handling is working.
The same Audi and BMW Bluetooth car kits are working fine with the N97 (including phonebook synchronizing, recent call handling and antenna signal).
In this situation the N8 is almost unusable safely by car!
Does anyone have some advice?
Is this a known problem from Nokia? Is it planed of being solved in a next firmware?

There also Problems with Parrot MKI9200.
After ending the conversation with incoming calls and pressing red button the N8 starts streaming music buy it self thru the Parrot. If you call out this never happens.
And there is problem handling music streaming playback with the Parrot + N8.
Speak and contacts works like it should.
Toyota RAV 2010 BT HF you can pair it but you can't talk thru it.
Older BT headset does the same you pair it but no sound.
So I think N8 has problems with older Bluetooth devices.
All Car brand has problems with many phones so it´s no 100% solution.
Better to go the old way = Buy the BT car solution from the same brand as the phone
and you get a solution from the same decade.
And skip the old **bleep** the carbuilders is building in the most cars that has a development
time for about 5-8years that worked good with the Nokia 6233.....
Use the Nokia CK-200 work like a glove!
But buy the extra external mic the build in is just built in...

IPhone G3 S with built in BlueTooth car Kit problem

I have an iPhone 3Gs.
When I connect to my car kit (Motorola T605) the kit always falls back into music mode.Tthe phone works in this mode but when I use either the iPod feature or a GPS navigation app I get no sound through the car.
It worked perfectly with my older iPhone with 2.2.1.
Any ideas as to what is wrong or what I can do to rectify the problem ?
Do any of you have car kits that work fully with the iPhone 3G s that you can recommend .. It looks like I might have to change my car kit.
I have updated my 2.2.1 3G phone .... The same problems exist. It seems to be a version 3.0 software issue to me.

Hi Tim,
I have just spent 2 hours on the phone with Motorola's tech support (They were useless at best !!!). I got nowhere at all. They blame all the problems all on Apple and say their kit is NOT guaranteed to work with all phones with A2DP. I wish they said that in their sales literature and i told them that .. they seemed to be unable to accept the idea that their saying it works in writing is somewhat misleading (Wrong in this case) and perhaps even a breach of sales law.
I then spent over an hour at my local (and very experienced) car audio store. they were more than helpful but they also could not get things working correctly.
I do have a Sony car stereo system and this has a lead for an iPod to play through the stereo system.
I connected my iPhone to this ... it worked .. sort of ! .. I had to play around a bit .. I managed to get Audio to work and my navigation App (Navigon Europe) worked this way also.
The store then played around with a Parrot MKi9100 car kit that they had on a demonstration stand.. This was significantly better and I am having my motorola T605 removed and disposed of in disgust tomorrow and the Parrot installed.
The Parrot will also charge the iPhone via it's cable unlike the Motorola and Sony setup.
I did speak to Parrot themselves and they have said to me that any of their models in the MKi range will be fine with the iPhone with version 3.0 software as they have done software updates .. The updates can be applied by the owners simply and quickly.
Just for information for you and others with similar problems ... We also tried several car stereo systems that say they have bluetooth and iPhone compatibility built in to them .. Alpine in particular ... Not one worked !!!
The Parrot is being fitted as I said earlier tomorrow ... I will make a further report when it's all done to let you know just how good it is and how everything works.
I hope this helps.

1.1.3 and Parrot Bluetooth car kit problems and solution

I've discovered a potential fix with help from the good folks at Parrot Bluetooth devices technical support. The main issue with version 1.1.3 upgrade and car kits appears to be when the iPhone attempts to sync contacts with the BT device. Apparently, something changed in 1.1.3 about how Apple sent contacts through BT. To fix it on a Parrot car kit, first delete the iPhone from the list of paired devices on the car kit. Then unpair the car kit on the iPhone. Pair the two devices following your devices instructions, only with contact synchronization disabled. On my 3200LS this meant selecting "Disable Synchro" from the phone pairing list. The connection was quick and rock solid after doing this.
I have seen reports of this same solution working with Ford Sync devices also, and it may address some of the Garmin issues too. Obviously, this isn't ideal since you won't have any contacts or at least will have to manually enter them on your device. But it should get you through until Apple devises a fix in a near future (hint Apple) upgrade.

Klash,
Try updating to iPhone 1.1.4, and see if your issue is resolved.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

Anyone else lose bluetooth connection with car radio since updating to IOS 6?

I've lost consistent connection between my iPhone 4S and car radio (Kenwood) ever since I upgraded to IOS 6. This is apparantly happening to lots of people. I use this bluetooth for hands-free calling on my phone so I'm hoping Apple will come out with IOS 6.1 soon to address this software patch. Others experiencing this with their phones and car stereo systems?

I'm having probems as well. I can make calls and play music but I can only change songs on my iPhone 4S but not with the controls on the car. I was able to do this before the upgrade.

I have iphone 6 with ios 8.1.1. The bluetooth pairs with my sony car radio and everything works fine. However, the iphone won't stop searching for other devices.

I have an iPhone 6 with ios 8.1.1 operating system. The Bluetooth pairs with my Sony car radio and works fine. However, the iPhone will not stop searching for other devices. This does not seem to affect anything, but I can't help but think it is using battery power.

One possibility:
How do you know it is searching for other devices? Because you opened Settings > Bluetooth?
Why is it searching for other devices? Because you opened Settings > Bluetooth?

Bluetooth car hands free problem

Can pair with both cars (Prius and Lexus), but no audio during phonecalls. Playback media through Bluetooth is no problem. Any solution?

Found a fix.
Switch off "Sync Contacts" in the car's Bluetooth profile on the iPhone. Try to make a call. If it works, switch back on "Sync Contacts" and everything should work fine now.

Can i connect my ipod classic to my car radio via bluetooth so that I can listen whilst driving?

Can I connect my Ipod Classic to my car radio using bluetooth (or any other way) so that I can listen through my radio whilst driving?

Yes, get an iFM transitter from eBay or Amazon.
Search for Griffin or Monster or just iPod Classic FM transmitter and charger, they are inexpensive less than US$30.
Get one with charger or else you iPod might run out of battery faster.

Cannot get turn-by-turn directions via car bluetooth. Do I need to turn off the car radio? I have a 2012 Camry.

Is anyone else having this issue? I've tried Apple Maps and Google Maps. The audio directions do not come out of the car speakers or the phone itself. I have a iPhone 4S and a 2012 Camry. Do I need to turn off the car radio?

I can confirm that Google maps and Navigon give Turn by Turn instructions via Bluetooth in my iOS6 iPhone 5. Maps does not.
I assume this is an error and will be amazed if it's not fixed by release of iOS7 in the Autum.

Error 80 when using bluetooth on car radio

error 80 when using bluetooth on pioneer car radio with my iphone 4 and 5

me too...did some digging on the internet and appears Error -80 means the car deck is expecting some bluetooth protocols that your iPhones wont give out. mine was intermittent for last couple years (deck is 12 years old) as of last night i just get error -80 everytime i try to dial out or recieve a call via bluetooth. this issue was intermittent with an iPhone 3G, 4, 4S, 5 and now my current 5S. im blaming Pioneer not Apple for this
I ended up buying a new deck for my car...gets installed tomorrow.
