Hands Free with cassette adapter

I recently bought a 97 Porsche Boxter with a cassette player and inserted a cassette adapter which I plugged into the headphone jack in my iPhone headset jack. I was playing music and received a call. The callers voice played through the radio speakers and she was able to hear me speak with no problem. I assume that the iPhone mic was able to pick up my voice from about 3 feet? The radio has no bluetooth capability but that sure worked well. It only works when I am playing the ipod app on the phone. Neat trick.

OK, in Australia, the best options I have found so far are:
Powere cradle - http://www.holdmyphone.net/select-your-device.html?ddlBrands=Ford&ddlModels=Terr itory-04_09&ddlsubaccessories=0&ddlaccessories=0&hselect=Phone&hselect2=Apple&hs elect3=iPhone-3G
BT carkit with Stereo integration - http://www.ow.com.au/shop/Car-Kits-Bluetooth/Parrot-CK3000-Evolution-Advanced-Bl uetooth-Car-Kit
These are very simple to use and I havent had any issues after 12 months usage.
Parrott have quite a few advanced products which are very good.

N95 Hands Free with Tom Tom 710 and 720

I am very suprised to find that my N95 is not compatable with these devices.
The 'phone does pair with the 710 but continually every couple of minutes disconnects and asks for the default password (0000) again. I have set the 'phone to accept the Tom Tom device as "authorised" but it still asks for the password again.
When I try to upload the 'phone connections memory the Tom Tom says "This facility is not avialable"
I wonder if anybody else has had this problem and has discovered a solution?
Tom Tom just say they have not tested the Nokia 95 yet....not helpful!!!

Hi, I bought my father a TOM TOM GO 720 for father days and we want to use the N95 for hands free with BT in the car. I can pair it and pass the contacts to it, but nothing works...keeps going around in circles asking for "xxxx" and says the function is not available on the TOM TOM...I have tried everything except updating HW SW...As the last time I updated the FW we lost all the contacts and setting.....
Please help if you can. Thanks J

I believe 3GS stereo jack damaged vehicle when used with cassette adapter

I believe the 3GS damaged my automobile stereo through some sort of short in the headphone jack that is related to voice control. I've noticed other threads about headphones and voice control causing strange behaviors on the iPhone 3GS. I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed a problem with a cassette adapter as well. Here is my experience. First, I've owned both a 2G and a 3G prior to my 3GS. That is over 2 years experience with the iPhone platform prior to the issue. During that time I've used the same cassette adapter to output iTunes music to my car stereo system (same vehicle with original stereo during entire time as well…) - which is the OEM stereo that GM installs, as I own a 2K4 Chevy Silverado pickup truck. I’ve had zero issues with the 2G and 3G. Then, the first morning I go out to the truck with the 3GS and plug it in, there is a pop that comes out of the speakers, voice control comes on, then the phone locks up and has to be hard reset. I later notice that one of the backlight bulbs in the stereo is now blown (darkening half the display) and the vehicle speedometer is malfunctioning. The speedo issue might seem surprising, but given how GM wires everything back the stereo system for Onstar monitoring, while I don't know for sure, I assume the stereo received some sort of short from the 3GS and then passed that along to the electronics which control the instruments. The analog GM instrument cluster displays (such as speed) are all managed by electronics that drive small servos that actually move the needles.
Anyhow, again, I feel it was the 3GS that caused this damage - as I'd been using other iPhone products for 2+ years and had no prior problems. Immediately after pluggin the 3GS in the first time the problem occurred. I think the voice control activating intermittently is a symptom of the problem. 8-9 times out of 10, when I plug the cassette adapter into the 3GS, voice control automatically starts, yet not all of the time. I am still using the same cassette adapter, but now plug it into the iPhone before it is inserted into stereo. While I’ve had no other issues with my stereo or instruments, I’m also very careful about not plugging the cassette adapter into the iPhone while the adapter is in the cassette player. I will also note that I'm on 2nd 3GS phone after an exchange for an unrelated issue and the new phone still intermittently activates voice control when the cassette adapter is plugged in. The issue also occurs with a 2nd cassette adapter (of different manufacture) which I use with a stereo in my home. In my mind, there something definitely wrong with the headphone jack on the 3GS and I believe it damaged my vehicle. Is anyone else seeing this issue?

You can try another cassette adapter or try another audio device with the same cassette adapter

Intermittent volume on hands free with Big Button ...

My in-laws have a Big Button 100 phone where the speech comes and goes and breaks up, when on hands free. This is both for the caller end and the receiver end.I have checked the batteries and BT have checked the line, both of which are Ok. It seems OK using the handset.
Any ideas what to do next ?
Chris

Hi Chris,
Thanks for posting. The Big Button 100 loudspeaker has 5 volume levels. The default setting is 3. The handset has five volume levels to adjust the incoming voice and three volume levels to adjust the outgoing voice, the default setting is minimum. It sounds as though your phone is possibly faulty as the volume changes intermittently. How long have you had the phone? If it’s still under warranty you might want to try getting a replacement. If it’s out of warranty there is a helpline number on page 22 of the Userguide . Let us know how you get on.
Cheers
David

How do I make a hands free call with the iphone 4s?

How do I make a hands free call with the iphone 4s? I have a bluetooth car device and when I try to talk through it (as I did with my old phone) to call someone it does not work. so far only hte last person called is redialed.

That is a carrier-based service. So first you have to make sure your service contract includes that feature.
It usually also includes Call Hold. So you call the first party, put them on hold, call the second, then reactivate the first. But only if your carrier allows you to.

When my iPhone 4S (with ios7) experiences a failed call while connected to my Bluetooth hands free in my car(screen locked) the failed call appears on the locked screen, as it should, then when I unlock the phone it automatically redials the failed call,

When my iPhone 4S (with ios7) experiences a failed call while connected to my Bluetooth hands free in my car(screen locked) the failed call appears on the locked screen, as it should, the problem arises whenever I unlock the phone, it automatically redials the last failed call, it doesn't do this with missed calls that are on the locked screen, if any. It is really annoying as sometimes the phone doesn't respond to attempts to end the call before it connects to the number. I then have to explain that it was my phone and not me, I look like an idiot, which I don't really need any extra help with!! Does anyone have any ideas? I don't want to stop missed call from showing in the locked screen but it might be associated with the failed calls and therefore be the only resolution

I have had the same issue which was driving me mad but think I have just found a way around it. In iOS 7 if you swipe up on the lock screen to access quick settings and go into timer then click the home button you get into the phone without calling the person back. Not a great 'fix' but hope it works for you. Come on Apple this isn't good enough, fix this bug otherwise you will lose your customers.

Iphone 2.0 update no longer working with Chrysler Uconnect Hands Free

Hello. I recently downloaded the 2.0 update for my original iphone and it will no longer work with the my Uconnect hands free setup in my 2008 Dodge Ram. I am a Chrysler Dealer Parts Manager and have installed and shown many people how to set these uconnect hands free devices up but I have no connection with the 2.0 update. I pair the phone as a new phone and it will pair but will not show up at all and it says "No Phone". Anybody know a fix for this. Help Apple!!!

I have a new Dodge Nitro. U Connect and iphone were working great. I had no problems until the 2.0 update. I tried calling apple care but gave up quickly when I realized I was going to be waiting forever with everything else they have going on.
The weird thing was that I was on a call trying to get some help from a friend of mine and all of a sudden the phone started working with the u connect. Then after leaving and returning to the car it stopped working again. Haven't been able to get it working since. I though maybe you had to be on a call for a while before it would transfer over. That wasn't it.
I tried turning off wireless too. Again no effect.
The phone shows that it is paired with the u connect. I've tried unpairing and repairing several times still to no effect. They just aren't working. This is a HUGE problem. I love my iPhone but may have to give it up and switch if they don't come up with a fix in the next month or so.
Anybody who can help me solve this would definitely move to the top of my Christmas Card List!

Does the ipod nano 7th gen work with Belkin Blue tooth In car hands free? Customer support said it did when I bought it, but the box doesn't say it does and I dont want to open it in case I have to return it.

Does the ipod nano 7th gen work with Belkin Blue tooth In car hands free? Customer support said it did when I bought it, but the box doesn't say it does and I dont want to open it in case I have to return it.

If the Belkin supports the A2DP (Stereo Bluetooth) profile then it will work.

HELP !!! hands free paring bb bluetooth with car stereo 2011 kia sorento

I was able to pair my bb 8530 curve with my kia sorento 2011 car stereo via Bluetooth, but once I leave the car, and come back the connections always fail.
I do have my Bluetooth "discoverable"
on my option settings I have only check mark "hands free", "audio source" & "A/v source"

this are the instructioin I used to fixed it. In Bluetooth Options unchecked all items on the Services list except Handsfree. The then deleted the Kia from the BB and the BB from the Kia. I then paired again, in options on the BB I changed Discoverable to "No" and then on BB in Sorento Device Properties change Encryption to "Disabled". This has worked almost 2 weeks now with no new issues.

Bluetooth connection with my hands-free device

Hello,
Several days ago the operation system of my Q10 was updated by 10.3.1.1779 release and now I have a problem with bluetooth communication with the built-in hands-free device in my car. My contacts app alredy is not recognized, so I cannot dial numbers from my contact's list and couldn't recognize a number who is calling. Also the numbers dialed haven't been memorizing...
Could you suggest any decision?

Hi had a same problem, after upgrading to 5.0.2 on my D6633 with my Honda. I have reset the phone and as well deleted all other devices I use at home (MAP-S1, SRS-X9) plus uninstalled SongPal application that controls them and all working now. This THROW function is usless only cosing problems

Problem with 2.2.1 - hands-free talking

no more hands-free talking with 2.2.1
Original, NOT jailbreaked iPhone 3G, upggrade from 2.2 to 2.2.1 and now, if I try to switch to hands-free talking, I get an high tone and lost the call - Apple I love you for that!

My handsfree works fine with 2.2.1.
Maybe you should try resetting your phone. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't fix it, look at this http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

I phone compatibility with hands free car systems

I purchased an I phone which replaced a Palm Treo 650 (verizon). It worked perfectly.When I am using my in car hands free system, the I phone Tries to work but the voices break up,especially at he beginning. When I am speaking I phone to I phone it is almost impossible to understand the conversation. I phone to land line is better.
I phone to I phone not thru the handsfree is perfect.There seems to be a compatibility problem. My device is bluetooth.

There are several threads on this subject that you can use the search function for... I suggest you make sure to mention what in-car system you are using (car make and model), since this is about the most important piece of information. Also, you might try the forums at edmunds.com that have lots of related threads organized by auto make and model. For me, my Treo 700p worked, but had some issues, with my '07 Toyota/Lexus system. The iPhone works perfectly.

I had paired by 9300 with my Vauhall Zafira hands free connection and everything was going well. But all of a sudden my 9300 wont pair up. It conects and then the next second it disables. I have tried a few times and the same thing happens. I have changed the Zafira as a safe device but to no avail. Any ideas?

Query:
Is the phone (when not connected) displaying headset?

My new birthday present (i-phone 4s) does not sync with my 2011 CRV navigation..is there any way the service tech at Honda can set this up for hands free usage? It is very frustrating to not be able to use this phone like my cheaper old phone.

My new birthday present of an i-phone 4s, can not be synced with the navigation of my 2011 Honda CRV. Can anyone give us hints on what to do, as the Honda dealership can not enable the phone to work with hands free. Help, this is very frustrating as the old cheap phone,worked perfect. Apple did not make this a user friendly product for cars.

Start by reading the User's Guide which will provide details for how to pair the device with other bluetooth devices. This may also require reading the Owner's Manual for the vehicle to find out how to put it into pairing mode.
