E66 with Audi SAP Bluetooth Car Kit

Hi
I've been using my E66 with my Audi A6 SAP car kit for two weeks now. Unlike my E51 which works fine the E66 connects ok then after about 1 or 2 minutes disconnects. After another 30 seconds or so it reconnects to the car kit. It seems that if I make or receive a call during the first minute then the E66 will remain connected. If I don't it will enter the disconnect / connect cycle.
Is anybody else having the same problem?
Cheers
James

The generic problem you have with Car Kits made for Car Manufacturers and phones is that both companies are very inclined not to talk to one another, and when you try and find out why its failing each will blame each other.
The problem may quite probably be resolved by a software update, either in the phone or the car.
You can check the Nokia site to see if an update is available for your phone.
The Audi update will have to be done by your local Audi Centre, which can be tricky to do to say the least, because they tend to stall, and give a self-righteous attitude towards the customer trying to tell them how it is.
I'd check with a few local Audi Centres.
The list of compatible handsets, is always out of date, and you get phones like the 6230 etc they dont really pay much attention to it.
I found that my S3 kit which is not SAP, would disconnect when my phone left the range of my WLAN, sometimes if I restarted the phone before I got it, it wouldn't disconnect at all.
I don't get it at all with my E71.
Shunts...
I will mostly be communicating with a Nokia E72 Zodium Black
Nokia E72-1 with Vr 051.018.207.04 Software
If this post helped... Add some kudos!!

  • 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.

  • Pairing iPhone 3 with Samsung HKT450 Bluetooth Car Kit

    I just bought a Samsung HKT450 Bluetooth Car Kit from New Egg. The device goes into pairing mode, but my iPhone 3, when I set it to search, it searches then goes back to off not showing the device to pair. I can repeat this everytime while the device is in pair mode. What am I doing wrong?

    I tried that. My wife has two bluetooth earpieces, a Motorola and Jabra. Neither paired. The funny thing is the Samsung device paired with both of her Blackberrys. Go figure!

  • Using iPhone with Pontiac GTO - 2004-2006 with Holden Bluetooth Car Kit

    I have a 2004 Pontiac GTO with a Holden Bluetooth Car Kit. I can pair the phone with the bluetooth kit but I can't activate the device when I receive or place a call. My previous phone (Motorola RAZR) had no issues. Has anyone had the same problem and been able to solve it?

    I just sold my Motorola RF-850 that was hooked up to my GTO today because it wasn't working with my IPhone.
    I can't believe you paid for the Holden one.
    Anyway good luck.

  • 6300 failed connection to bluetooth car kit

    New 6300 will not pair with my motorola bluetooth car kit. Never finds device.
    My 6230i worked well - so what is the problem please? Is it software in 6300? Is there a fix. Surely bluetooth is bluetooth....otherwise what's the point
    As an aside 6300 seems to get poorer recption than 6230i did as well - is this the first time in 20 years that I have upgraded to phone that performs less well than the previous one!?
    Thanks
    Peter

    By the way Motorola kit is an HF850 and was professionally installed in the car only just over a year ago - so is not an old model. As I say the 6230i works perfectly with it.
    I see 55 people have viewed the Post - has no one got any bright ideas - please! Peter

  • N80 and Motorola IHF1000 Bluetooth car kit

    Hi all,
    I've been unable to get my Nokia N80 to correctly pair with the standard bluetooth car kit supplied with the car. I have also downloaded the latest firmware, but this does not seem to rectify the issue.
    Is there another solution instead of moving to another phone manufacturer?

    I'm now with Sony Ericsson and the above post should have been my last were it not for a rather belated response to my enquiry with Nokia 'Support'. Moderators really should take note to the response that Nokia 'support' team offer as it is in their direction that the moderators will often send bemused Nokia owners who need help on this forum: - -------------------------------------------------- Dear Mr xxx Thank you for contacting Nokia Helpline. With regard to your email concerning the Nokia N80, we can advise as Nokia do not test out handste with any third party software or deivices we can not say wether they will be compatabile. Please don't hesitate to contact us again if you have any further questions. With best regards UK & Ireland Team Nokia Helpline ---------------------------------------------------- It has taken the best part of 3 weeks to receive the above response which, quite frankly, offers absolutely no help whatsoever!! Quite an admission though. Just to repeat what they have said above....NOKIA do NOT test their handsets with ANY third party software or device. This leaves owners such as myself, who spec car-kits at he point of buying a new car because they prefer the integrated equipment rather than an 'add-on', completely high and dry! I still have the N80 and intend to keep it as a constant reminder NEVER to buy anything made by Nokia again. ttfn

  • Unable to manage volume with my bluetooth car kit

    I have a bluetooth car kit Parot CK-3000 and the volume is very low and I can't change it with my new Nokia phone 6120. With my previous phone (Sony-Ericsson, SPV) it was running well but with my new phone I can't change the volume of my bluetooth car kit and I can't manage it with the specific menu.
    Can you help-me on this subject ?
    Thank's in advance.

    Hi fct24
    I don't know which firmware version your phone is running, key in *#0000# on standby screen as there have been several posts in the past concerning this issue.
    Do you have to set Parrot up as an "enhancement", I know "headset" will be listed but is there a "car kit" option?
    Is Parrot using their latest software?
    Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

  • E61i with Bluetooth car kit - How do make calls wi...

    Hi, I have a new E61i and find most things spot on but find I can make and receive calls through the car kit while its connected fine. My problem comes when the phone goes into the locked mode after the set period of time.
    At this point, although I can still receive calls I am unable to make them through the kit. It shows its trying to dial out then come up straight away with call ended. Unlock the phone and it all works again.
    With a full function car kit now not working 100% its a bit frustrating!! I have tried most of the settings within the bluetooth section of the phone, e.g. the remote SIM mode, but still no joy.
    Any help would be great.

    OK, I solved this for myself after much playing about with the menus and settings. Why oh why is their no direct support from RIM without haveing to purchase a support package?? This is clearly a topic that should be covered in the intruction manual sent out with the ohones, anyway this how to do it in case anyone has the same problem.
    1/ Make a bluetooth pairing.
    2 go to "options", press OK
    3/ go to "Networks and Connections", press OK
    4/ go to "Bluetooth Connections" press OK
    5/ select the paired device and press OK
    6/ select "Full Menu" press OK
    7/ select "Options" press OK
    8/ scroll down to "Services and deselect the tick in "SIM Access Profile"
    9/ Press return and select "Save" press OK.
    The phone now works perfectly with my built in car kit.
    Sirely it is about time phone and car manuefacturers got together to develop a system that works on all car kits.

  • 9630 does not connect with Bluetooth Car Kit Speakerphone

    Whenever I try to make a call with my Motorola T215 Car Kit Speakerphone, my BlackBerry 9630 Tour "smart"phone says, Connection to Motorola T215 failed.  I have followed the pairing instructions that came with the car kit precisely and repeatedly, but still get the same result.  To add even more enjoyment to my experience, my connection with the Bluetooth device seems to go on and off as it pleases.  I figure the only way to put an end to this issue is to smash it with a hammer, but if you know of another solution, I would appreciate it.  My carrier is Sprint, and OS version is 4.2.0.285. 

    The first thing I would suggest doing it running an upgrade on your device software. To do this you will need your USB cord and access to the internet.
    Go to: www.blackberry.com/update and then follow the prompts to update your device software.
    This should back up your device data automatically, but to be save incase of any situation that may arise do a backup of your device through the BlackBerry Desktop Software.
    Once the update is done, test the Bluetooth connection.
    Hope this helps.

  • 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...

  • Cannot connect to bluetooth car kit - is invisible

    For some time Blackberry 8100 under OS 4.2 functioned fine with Audi bluetooth car kit.
    Now with a new Blackberry 8110 under OS 4.3 the same car is not detected.
    Other phones and printer can be connected to OK by bluetooth.
    Wondering if the car has a problem a connection was successfully made with another phone. 
    Please can anyone help?
    Merci.
    Pem

    That is sometimes the case if you want to download your contacts to the car. No problems when using it purely a handsfree.
    Personally I have never had to use any software and all my N Series phones including my current N96 have always connected to car kits. Sometimes it does take a few attempts before it downloads all the contacts but that's it.

  • Alltel 8130 and Nissan Bluetooth Car Kit

    HELP!!! New Nissan Altima with Bluetooth Car Kit.  I am able to pair no problem, make and receive call without a hitch.  Downloaded phone book with ease.  The problem is whenever I use the phone with the car kit after I exit the car the phone locks up, keys do not respond and I have to do a battery pull to reset the phone.  No problem until I use the phone in the car again (with the bluetooth kit).  Any help or suggestions are appreciated.  I do have the latest OS (4.5.0.89).
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Problem Solved: I went to Alltel store and they adviced I do a manual disconnect from the phone before I turn off the car, this seemed to work so since I placed ther Bluetooth icon on the frontpage of my phone it seems to be working fine without having to manually disconnect.  I do not quite understand why it works now but it does.

  • Bluetooth car kit connectivity issue after IOS 8.1.2 update

    After the IOS 8.1.2 update I cannot connect my IPhone with the Bluetooth car kit (hands free) system of my car.
    Before the update connectivity was perfect, after the IOS 8.1.2 update the car kit does not find the IPhone any longer.
    To solve this issue I deleted both the car kit and the IPhone from the paired devices list of both (my car and the Iphone) and tried to pair them again - no success. The car kit just does not finds the Iphone any longer.
    Please, help!!!

    Just to share the way I finally solved the problem - might be helpful to somebody else.
    I didn't noticed before that the IOS 8.1.2 update changed automatically the name of my Iphone from the one I've given to it before to just "Phone".
    I re-named the Iphone (just gave a new name to it by going to Settings -> General -> About -> Name) and then the car kit managed to find the phone very quickly via Bluetooth.

  • Nokia C7-00 & Kufatec FISCON Bluetooth Car Kit

    Hello everybody!
    I just updated my C7-00 with latest Symbian Anna 022.014.
    Very nice user interface, updated browser, all applications 100%-compatible.
    I do have a serious problem with my Bluetooth car kit (Kufatec FISCON using CK5050+ chipset, SW 3.23.5). The phone pairs with the kit, synchronizes content (contacts and call registers). When I disconnect (turn off ignition and leave the car), the phone hangs and displays the bluetooth connection as already established.
    Things were working very well with latest Symbian version (014.XXX).
    I think this is a bug in Anna Bluetooth stack. Does anyone have any clue?
    The problem occurs once the phone contacts are synchronized with the car kit.
    When I disconnect just after pairing (before complete synchronization) the phone behaves normally (ie. connection is dropped).
    Is it possible that the phone does not complete disconnect request from car kit?

    Hello,
    Did you solve the problem?
    Too late I saw your post, but my problem is completely the same:
