E61 and CR-47 in-car handsfree problems

I've just installed the CR-47 handsfree holder for the E61 in my Mini and connected the antenna, replacing a previous holder for smaller 6100 pop port Nokia. However, now when the E61 is firmly in the holder it charges but when making a call does not automatically turn the radio off and go through the car speaker system etc, so you can't talk to the other caller. But if I put my old Nokia into the CR-47 it works beautifully.
Could there be a problem with the setup of my E61 which is preventing connection? It seems that the E61 cannot trigger the correct Pop-Port connector for routing through the car kit - very silly.
I'm afraid I don't know which car kit it is, but I do know that it was professionally fitted with cable runs through the structure of the car and all wired up to the in-car entertainment system etc.
There is also an indicator in the top righthand corner of the screen - a tray with an arrow pointing upwards. What does this mean, I can't find it in the manual?
I don't see how Nokia can sell this cradle for the E61 with a Pop-Port interface when it won't interact with the handsfree functions except for charging.
Thanks guys!

OK, it might not be the CARK-126. The Mini is 2002 registered so it could be a different kit. All I know is that the kit is all plugged in behind the CD player with the microphone coming out next to the drivers mirror.
Could it be another car kit?
Is there anything I can do to make it work at all?
Can I change the wiring?
Just seems like the E61 is unable to mute the system, but is able to charge and goes into car mode. Also, the other car kits that are compatable are bluetooth ones, so there is no need for the Pop-Port, so why have it except for charging!
I basically want to be able to use the Pop-Port system and have the E61 work the same way the 6100 does.Message Edited by peab1 on 10-Aug-2006

    It sounds like you have a cark-126 car kit which has old software and limited compatabillity, you will need to upgrade this to a ck-7w. you can identify a cark-126 if the pop port plug going into the bottom of the cradle is rubber, has no nokia makings & has small slits to the bottom.

  • 9860 unable to make a call - car handsfree

    Please help. I've sucessfully connected via Bluetooth and enabled phone on car handsfree.  I receive calls directly on hands free - no problem.  I can make a call, from my 9860 and then continue with the conversation on the handsfree.  BUT I cannot make a call from the go via the car or handsfree device.  Go through the motions on handsfree when making a call until "calling the number".  Call is then rejected with message:  "Unable to find channel or circuit".

    Many thanks. problem solved, I feel such an idiot, I'm not very educated on Android phones.

  • Bluetooth car handsfree caller can't here me

    I have a 5800XM  and a Supertooth Voice car handsfree and it pairs ok and I was able to transfer the phone book to it but when I recieve a call the person at the other end cannot hear me.
    At first I thought it was the supervoice but i tried it on another phone, a Nokia 5228 which is virtuall identical to the 5800 and it worked fine with the bluetooth.
    I have the latest firmware on the phone V52.0.007 and I tried a hard reset but that made no difference.
    After Googleing the problem it appeares I'm not the only one who has this so has Nokia come out with a fix yet or are they not bothered.
    If there is no fix does anybody know if there is a wired hands free kit that works with this phone, not the headset type or a mega expensive plumbed in setup

    Nobody here can help, I'm afraid, as we're all customers same as you. Give Sky a call to report the fault.

  • Any ideas on problem with ipod and alpine cde-9881 car stereo

    I have an ipod 60gb v 1.2.1 and a new Alpine car stereo with Ipod connecting cable. When connected, the stereo message reads IPod searching. It never assumes control of ipod,or quits searching. I have reset and restored my ipod, had the apple geek at genius bar check it out. My ipod does not play on the alpine ipod ready stereo in my husband's car, nor the stereos in Car Toys. My husband's 30 gb ipod plays on the stereo in his car AND my car. Help! Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem? Alpine is telling me it could be a software problem with my ipod, and to revert to an earlier version of itunes. But my husband's ipod works in my car. So I did a restore using his computer and itunes....no luck. am interested in any ideas on a possible solution!!
    Thanks in advance

    Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? If not, have a look at the bottom section that covers what to try if the message keeps reappearing: iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode - Use iTunes to restore
    Towards the end it says "If after restoring your iPod, the message described above reappears, the iPod drive letter may need to be reassigned. See the "Change the Drive Letter" section of this document for steps to assign a different drive letter" which contains a link to this article: Windows confuses iPod with network drive and iTunes may exhibit strange behavior in relation to the iPod.

  • When i play back an mp3 dj mix i,ve burn,t to cd in my car when i turn the engine of and then restart the car the cd starts back from the beginning how do i solve this problem so that when i turn the engine on end off the cd plays from the same place

    when i play back an mp3 dj mix i,ve burn,t to cd in my car when i turn the engine of and then restart the car the cd starts back from the beginning how do i solve this problem so that when i turn the engine on end off the cd plays from the same place it did before i turned the engine off

    It could be that the CD player will only playback "Redbook" CD's from the previous position.
    And starts mp3 type CD's from the beginnig.
    However.. it's not Logic related.

  • 6300 and Bluetooth handsfree problem

    I experience this problem with my 6300 and the BH-700 bluetooth handsfree : When the person on the other end talks my mic gets muted and he can't hear me. Ofcourse this also happens if the other end is at a noisy place and then communication is impossible since my mic is always muted.
    This seems like a problem of the phone since it happens with any bt-handsfree. On the other hand the BH-700 works fine with all other phones I tried...
    I upgraded my phone firmware from 4.7 to 5.0 but the problem still remains. I don't want to think that the hardware implementation of the 6300's bluetooth and simultaneously send and receive data!
    Anyone this problem? Any possible solutions?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I have simillar problem with BT handsfree - the other side has difficulty hearing me, while I can hear fine.
    Do you have any further experience or solution?

    In most cars with built-in BT hands-free systems it is the car's system that does the speech to text conversion and lookup, not the phone's. so there's nothing that can be done in an iPhone forum to help you. Try the customer support site for the car. You can tell it's the car system if the contact list is downloaded to the car and displayed on the car's screen (if it has one).

  • BlueAnt Car Handsfree & E61i

    I purchased a BlueAnt Supertooth Handsfree Car Speakerphone recently which I succesfully paired and used with my E61i phone.
    For a good while it worked well until I started using an external Nokia GPS receiver.
    While I can still receive GPS info via bluetooth to the phone for TomTom, I cannot now receive any audio through the car speaker phone (phone calls or directions from TomTom).
    I went to the shop where I bought the car handsfree and the fault (what ever that may be) seems to lie with the phone.
    I think I may have to perform a hard reset of the phone to get it back to factory defaults (and hopefully fix the audio issue).
    Any feedback on this problem from anybody?

    Scubarish.
    Indeed the Parrot MKi9200 looks very slick and I have no doubt it's a great system.
    However it isn't cheap at  $474.95 in Canada : https://secure.crcc.ca/details.php?productId=594&id=14
    Also from what I understand it has to be installed and connected with wires to the existing stereo system
    which comes at an additional price ? Not sure how much it costed you.
    All in all, the Motorola T505 is only about $60 which is more than my budget of $100+-.
    Thanks for your input.

                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,

  • How do i get my iphone5 to sync with my cars handsfree bluetooth?

    how do i get my iphone5 to sync with my cars handsfree bluetooth?

    You need to check the car's manual to see how to put the car into discovery/pairing mode. Once that is done, the iPhone and car should recognize each other, so long as Bluetooth is turned on in the phone. You may have to enter a passcode in the phone for the vehicle, but that is generally explained in the vehicle's manual.

    Maybe you should test these things before calling people out, because these settings do function perfectly well.
    iCloud is not supported on Snow Leopard or lower, why bother to mention it?
    The OP has an iCloud account, and that can not be opened without Lion or Mountain Lion (on a Mac), IOS5 or 6 (on an iPhone/iPad)
    The document I linked to is Apples documentation for iCloud on current devices,I don't care whether you believe that you know better than they do, but it will affect the people who follow your advice as it won't work

  • Is it possible to get Siri to work with 'old' Car handsfree systems?

    Is it possible to get Siri to work with 'old' Car handsfree systems?
    Unless I'm missing something - Siri doesn't work well with older handsfree car systems - as typically the cars built in system handles the voice control and relays the request to the phone over bluetooth protocols.  I tried initiating siri standalone while connected to the car and it failed.
    I was hoping I might be able to do some sneaky like 'Call Siri' to enter Siri mode but it doesn't seem to work.
    I'm guessing future Car handsfree systems will be Siri aware - but making Siri work with older systems (and my car isn't old - it's a 2011 model) would be very useful.
    Has anyone come up with a workaround?  I really don't want to have to buy or use a bluetooth ear piece
    Thanks
    Adam

    I never heard anything on this and so am still unable to use Siri without touching my phone.

    Hey grossa2,
    First, here is a way to report an issue with your purchase:

    Any ideas I'm pulling my hair out !!!

    Seems to be a hardware issue and you'll have to get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider, an Apple Store , to see if other 3rd party charger will work at their place.
