Bold 9930 + Bluetooth + Garmin nuvi 3590LMT + SMS + Text

I have a Bold 9930. I have had the Garmin for about a month and have been using hands free calling.  About 10 days after using the Garmin, I got a text message and the Garmin offered to read it to me which it did.  After powering down the Garmin it has never relayed text messages from my Bold.  Never before and never after that one time.  It read one regular Verizon text message and one Facebook Messenger (app not the facebook app) message.  Never read a Blackberry Messenger message.  One did come in while I was traveling (BBM) and was not read.  When connecting via bluetooth: Bold says it connected with the garmin and green check box filled for hands free AND Message center.  I haven't been able to restore this function.  Basically it just started working for one day and never since. 

It does not support sending SMS via the Bluetooth. There is no upgrade to allow that, and I am not aware of any third party application which would enable it, either.
Good luck.

  • BB Bold 9000 How to display Arabic SMS text

    I'm new to these forums so sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong spot .. please redirect me if so.
    Recently bought BB bold 9000 from Vodafone Aust. Need to know how to display msgs or emails received in ARABIC text .. any help would be appreciated.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi,
    Download the OS for the carrier and use Application loader inside the Desktop manager software (that came with the Box)  and select Arabic with the language options (if that is an option).
    Alternatively you could install the OS from an Arabic carrier (involves deleting the vendor.xml file), but its not recommended....
    This is the instructions from my website (the short version):
     Get an OS from here:http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    The Operating system software downloaded from the Blackberry website contains all the files required to reload the O/S.
    The Desktop Manager software is NOT required!
    Once downloaded and installed, follow these directions:
    Download the OS file from your carrier website to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the file you downloaded.
    Go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml."
    Plug in BB and double click on "Loader.exe." It's located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.
    The process takes about 45 minutes to an hour depending on how much data you have to backup and restore during the process. Once it's done loading the new OS it will reboot (it may do this twice during the entire process.) You will see a white screen with an hourglass for up to 20 minutes at a time while the DM says "waiting for initialization." If, for some reason, you end up with a white screen with small icons and the number 507, simply connect to the PC again and run Loader.exe again and it should load the OS to the device.

  • Garmin Nuvi 3590LMT

    Why doesn't BB cary the new Gamin GPS line ?
    Been out six months on Amazon.

    keydiver,
    Gps units have very short shelf life before we pull them and put out new units, unfortuantely you fell into those time frames of the transition. I like to remember that if you are looking for a gps then make sure you just get one with lifetime maps and maybe a bigger screen if that appeals to you. Just like everything else the more bells and whistles that get put onto something the more problems that can go wrong with it. I will say that you aren't having that much luck with the gps units that you are purchasing, but before you give up hope try a simple one like the 40/50lm and see how you like that!! good luck!!!

  • MBP Bluetooth connection to Garmin nuvi

    Good morning, everyone!
    I am trying to figure out if it is possible to pair my MBP (C2D) with my Garmin nuvi 660 gps unit. Rather, I've been able to pair the two devices, but the nuvi expects to be paired to a phone, so it doesn't recognise the MBP or any files I try to send. Basically, I want to be able to send image files and mp3's to the nuvi.
    Does anyone have any ideas on this? (I've also posted this question on a couple of gps boards.)
    Thanks!

    I have the same problem. I think that neither of the companies have the will to solve this issue.  I have always been a fan of Nokia, so this is really disappointing.

  • "Conversation" View in SMS Text Messages

    I am unable to change the settings in SMS text options to 'conversation' view. I followed the instructions on this help page but I didn't even havesome of the buttons that were mentioned. My other BB's (9300, Bold 9000) defaulted to conversation view. This is making me crazy!! Each new text has a new, seperate window. ALSO--does anyone know how to download music from your PC to your BB? My PC won't even register that I have a device plugged in. W_T_H!!!

    While you can have SMS (and MMS) messages NOT listed in the Messages folder, the only way to see only SMS messages in the Messages folder is to run a search.  You can save searches and assign an [Alt] key combination to execute the search, and as far as I know, ALL BlackBerries come with [Alt]S set as a Saved Search that will display only SMS messages.
    You can read more about using Saved Searches here:

  • Problems Pairing with Garmin Nuvi 265W

    Bought a new Garmin Nuvi 265W GPS. Set the unit up. It paired immediately with iPhone and worked without issue. Then as a last step in the setup I registered the Nuvi with Garmin. Big mistake. During the registration Garmin wrote something to the Nuvi and toasted the iPhone pairing. Unit goes into an on/off do loop. Resetting and restoring doesn't help. Unpaired the iPhone and deleted it from the Nuvi so at least it's back working. Garmin doesn't know why what they write during the registration process causes the problem and said there is no way to go back. I've got V2.2 on my iPhone. Anybody have a similar problem and know of a work around to get the pairing to work again?

    I bought a Garmin 265WT recently and could pair my iPhone 1st generation to the unit but it would constantly reboot the Garmin unit. After reading all the support forums and upgrading to the latest software releases on both my iPhone and Garmin 265WT
    I could not get the problem resolved running the below software/firmware:
    iPhone 2.2 and 2.2.1
    Garmin 4.8 with Bluetooth Firmware 1.7
    I finally called Garmin and they shipped me another unit. The new unit worked without any problems even with older software and firmware. Seems as if the reboot problem might be more than just software and firmware related.
    My iphone at this point is running 2.2.1 but the below software and firmware revisions of the new Garmin 265WT worked:
    The new unit came with software:
    Software Version 4.40
    GPS SW Version 2.38b
    Bluetooth SW Version 1.65
    This worked no problem with bluetooth. No reboots....
    I even upgraded to:
    Software Version 5.0
    Bluetooth SW Version 1.7
    The unit still worked no problem. I can only suspect the issue here is hardware related in some cases. So for some people the upgraded software/firmware may work. But if you are running both iPhone 2.2.1 (1st Gen Phone) and the latest software and Bluetooth firmware and still have the problem I would call Garmin and have them replace the unit.

  • 2013 Honda Civic Si, SMS Text Message Function says "Unsupported Device" when trying to use this feature with iPhone 5. Can anyone help with this?

    In my 2013 Honda Civic Si, I'm trying to use the SMS Text Message Function, but keep getting the error message, "Unsupported Device".
    I use an iPhone 5 with latest iOS 6.1.4.
    HandsFreeLink works perfectly fine with my iPhone for voice calls and for streaming Bluetooth Audio. Does text messaging not work because of iMessage? Does anyone have any suggestions for this issue?
    Thanks in advance!

    In looking for a 2013 Honda Civic (LX model, no Navi), the text feature was very interesting and important to me. Why not have my texts available on the dash and read to me rather than messing with my phone. Anyway I won't go into the whole thing about safety while you're in your driving and all that. We all know what we should and shouldn't do. Anyways...
    I spoke to a salesman who said that this feature was not compatible with the iPhone, only BBs. Of course this didn't impress me and I found it hard to believe that Honda would restrict themselves like that. Anyway, a few searches on the web later and Honda shows that the iPhone 4, 4S and 5 are compatible for receiving texts through the car, just not sending them. I believe you need a minimum of iOS 5+ for it to work though.
    Once I found this the salesman and I did some testing with our phones. He has a 4S with iOS 6.1.3 and mine is a 4 with iOS 6.1.3. Initially we setup the phone using the Bluetooth config on the Civic's iMID display. It was setup and hands-free calling tested o.k. Next the texting was tested. Both of us have iMessage turned on. Neither of us could get the messages we would send each other (1 of us had our phone setup with the car, the other sent the text and vice versa). The messages were received by the phones, just not the car). When we would go under the Text Message section, it would say "Unsupported Device". I knew that couldn't be as Honda said it was compatible. After more web searches and a phone call to Honda by the salesman, I found the following.
    1) It seems like the person who had their phone paired with the Civic had to disable iMessage to start getting texts. The salesman still had it enabled on his though when he sent me texts (as SMS) and the Civic got them so both people aren't necessarily required to disable it. Now under the Text Message section, it would list the messages received.
    2) I changed the Notifications on my phone for Messages from Banner to Alerts. Once I did this it started to work. The texts were showing up on the car. I had read where another person had tried this successfully but then changed it back to Banner and it continued to work. I experienced the same thing.
    Granted this wasn't extensive testing but I was able to get it to do something closer to what I wanted. I'm not sure why Apple and Honda can't put their heads together to make sending texts work on the car but maybe someday it will work when enough people complain. It's kind of a disappointment that I couldn't get iMessage to work but I haven't given up hope yet. As it's a proprietary protocol, I can see Honda not supporting it though.
    Hope this helps someone out!
    FYI I bought car!

  • 1.1.3 Update Doesn't Work with Garmin Nuvi

    I have been using my iPhone with a Garmin nuvi 680. So far it has worked very well as a hands-free speaker, that is untill last night when I upgraded to 1.1.3. Since the upgrade my Bluetooth connection to the nuvi is shot. I get an initial connection, but every minute or two it warns me that my phone has been disconnected. You can imagine that this gets quite old after a dozen or so warnings.
    I have unpaired my iPhone and paired it again to no avail. I have reset the iPhone and I will try again. What else should I try?

    I restored my iPhone last night and reloaded my latest backup. That didn't fix the problem at all. Next I am going to try restoring and starting from scratch. Maybe that will work better.
    What I am thinking I'll do is do a clean restore, no backup just a new 1.1.3 iPhone and then test the Bluetooth with the nuvi. If that works, then I'll load all my info back to the phone manually. If it doesn't I'll restore the backup and wait for a fix.

  • Bluetooth and Nuvi

    Since upgrading to 3.0, my 3G will no longer hook up with my Garmin Nuvi via bluetooth. While I'm looking for a solution, has anyone else run into this problem?
    Traj

    I want to post here so others will see. I have a Pioneer stereo/navi aftermarket unit, which no longer pairs with myiPhone since upgrading to 3.0. So it's not just the Nuvi which has problems.
    I've reset the phone and the car unit a few times each, to no avail. I'm told it is a known bug, that others have reported this, and the only way to fix right now is to revert the iPhone to the previous OS (which I'm not even sure is possible).
    WARNING TO ANYONE WHO HASN'T UPGRADED YET! think twice about installing the iPhone upgrade if you count on the Bluetooth hands-free feature in your car, because chances are it won't work the same way (if at all).
    I hope that the Nuvi and other pairing/BT issues are all corrected with any update and that it comes soon!

  • IPhone and Garmin Nuvi GPS

    Besides my Motorolla headset, I managed to pair my iPhone to my Garmin Nuvi 360 GPS with no problems. This particular Nuvi model as well as some other Garmin models have Bluetooth built in. The benefits of this device is that besides the wonderful Nuvi GPS features, the device is also a car kit with speaker and microphone. What I found quite remarkable was that during the pairing, the entire phonebook I have on my iPhone came over as well. So, when someone on that list calls, their name comes up on the touch screen. Or if you want to call someone, either click through or search the directory on the Garmin. Very cool.
    Powerbook   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    iPhone works with my Garmin Nuvi 360 via bluetooth, downloaded address book and all, but after a day or two the connection stops working (iPhone says they’re paired, but Nuvi doesn’t show phone icon) and I have to manually set up the connection again. Anyone else having this problem?
    Thanks.

  • Would a rear view camera work with a garmin nuvi GPS

    If I buy a garmin nuvi with Bluetooth would a Bluetooth rear view car camera work with it.

    Only a few garmin models allow a back up camera to be connected. Check the link below for what garmins have this option.
    https://support.garmin.com/support/searchSupport/c​ase.faces?caseId=%7B22ca4500-2009-11df-d1b4-000000​...
    The Garmin 760LMT is the only one I could find on BestBuy.com that has this options.

    You will also need a cable and a back up camera for it to work.

  • Problems pairing with Garmin Nuvi 1310 sat nav

    I have been trying to connect to a Garmin Nuvi 1310 sat nav. It set up first time, however when I switch off the sat nav and then turn it back on my phone will not connect automatically. I have to remove it from the list on the Garmin and start all over again. Surely this can't be right, my old iPhone re-connected automatically everytime. Is there a setting I need to adjust?

    I bought a Garmin 265WT recently and could pair my iPhone 1st generation to the unit but it would constantly reboot the Garmin unit. After reading all the support forums and upgrading to the latest software releases on both my iPhone and Garmin 265WT

  • IPhone and Garmin Nuvi 660 pair!

    Thought I would mention that the iPhone successfully pair with the Garmin Nuvi 660 via Bluetooth, AND all of the address book entries (including multiple numbers) gets transferred to the Nuvi for use. Great feature to dial while on the road without even taking the iPhone out....

    I have not had any problems; I get in-and-out of the car and each time the two devices have successfully paired. I once turned off BT for a while in the iPhone but had no problems when I turned it back on and then later got in the car to go somewhere. I keep my Nuvi plugged in all the time -- maybe that makes a difference? Do you unplug your Nuvi when leaving the car and then replug it when starting out again?

  • Blackberry 8310 not showing reply or send in sms text options menu

    I have a blackberry 8310. iam able to recieve sms text messages but when i click to on options, there is no "reply" option in the menu for me to be able to reply to the text. The chip works fine in other phones so that tells me something in the phone is not set right. There is no option for me to even compose and fresh sms text message. Please help?

    Here ya' go:
    1. Get a good backup of your device: BB device backup (I keep all my backups in a separate folder created for that purpose so they are always in one place and easy to find.)
    2. Download the most recent version of device software for your carrier: Downloading BB device software
    3. Reinstall the device software: Clean reload of device software
    4. Pull the battery out with the device ON. Wait about a minute and put the battery back in. Let the BB completely restart.
    5. Once you have the device OS successfully installed you will then need to reinstall any 3rd party apps you currently have on your device: Install applications using the app loader tool
    6. Complete another battery pull routine after each 3rd party app installation to reclaim memory and refresh your BB.
    Let us know how it goes.
