  • Connection with BMW car Bluetooth Problem. Curve 9320

    I have a problem with the connection with my BMW car (series 3 model 2012). I have a Curve 9320 BlackBerry with 7.1 bundle OS (V7.1.0.907, platform 9.49.0.98).
    When I connect the Blackberry to the BMW bluetooth everything works fine. After this though the Blackberry cannot  open anymore the files attached to the e-mails. If I reset the device by disconnecting the bactery and restart it soon after that the Black berry can open the files attached to the e-mail. It work fine until it connects again to the bluetooth of the BMW. So far this is the only problem I found, the other functions work just fine.
    Someone can help me?
    Thanks

    Yup, same issue.
    I have to disconnect the lead from the phone before answering a call.  Somewhat hard sometimes when driving...

  • 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.

  • My iphone 6 connects to the car via bluetooth, the music works good, but the phone calles does not work.  It looks like it is working but doesn't.  I have tried in my Hyundai and a Dodge rent car and get the same results.  I updated the last 8.0.2.

    My iphone 6 connects to the car via bluetooth, the music works good, but the phone calls does not work.  It looks like it is working but doesn't.  I have tried in my Hyundai Sonata and a Dodge Dart rent car and get the same results.  I updated the last 8.0.2.  It worked the first day i had the phone, and then i updated to Ios 8.0.2 and it quit working.
    Now when i get in the car, it acts like it is connected and makes the same call it was on after syncing to bluetooth, but it really isn't on a call.  This is happening on both cars.
    Does anyone know if this is the phone and i need to take it to Apple or if there is an issue that Apple is working on getting a fix for?
    My son in law has the exact same phone as me, we both got the on 10/6, he had a Dodge Dart and his is working via bluetooth.
    Someone HELP please, as i consider this a safety issue by not having my calls go to bluetooth.

    We had the same problem, but figure out the solution.
    You MUST have at least 1 song added to your ITUNE!  After you add a free song, then everything else should work as normal!
    Hope this helps!

    Please stop posting in ALL UPPER CASE; it is considered SHOUTING, is harder to read, and is considered rude.
    If you have not yet done so unpair the car kit from the phone, or better yet reset it completely, Forget the car kit in the iPhone, and pair it anew.

  • Iphone 3GS with bluetooth connection with Audi car kit

    I connected my iphone 3GS to my Audi car system through bluetooth connection. The Audi system recognizes the iphone and his address phone and all works well.
    The issue comes when I disconnect the iphone from the car kit. After, even someone calls me, the call ringtone rings only two times and after switches off during the incoming call. This issue is random, sometimes the alarm rings well, sometimes not by working in the way described above. Someone has the same issue and knows how solve it? Is an issue linked to hw or only sw?
    thanks

    Hi.,
    Can I check with you if you have this problem..
    I assume you have paired the iPhone 3GS to the Audi carkit.
    First, play something on the iPod.
    Then go to the Bluetooth settings page where you can see all the paired devices.
    after that, make a connection to the carkit.
    Is there any stuttering or audio breaking you hear from the carkit?
    I have this problem with my iTech BluebandR headset and iSkin Cerulean RX. I only found this problem with iPhone 3GS but it worked fine with 3G.

  • IPod Touch/iPhone 4s in a BMW - Screen size problems while playing videos since iOS5

    Hi,
    I have an iPod Touch 4th generation 64GB that i use connected to my 2011 BMW M5 purchased with all multimedia and iPod/iPhone options available from factory.
    The car lets me play music and video playlists from the iPod and the videos can be seen on the BMW iDrive screen, when i was in iOS4 everything worked perfectly, but then i updated to iOS5 and one problem arised and then updated to iOS6 and now to iOS6.1 but the problem still persists, basically the problem consists that sometimes video size and aspect ratio of videos displayed in the car display are wrong, and some times the same videos are displayed correctly. It is just random, sometimes is OK and sometimes it is wrong, but when it starts to display wrongly, all videos following are displayed wrongly.
    After trying everything i discovered that while a video is playing with wrong size and aspect ratio, i can correct this behavior, sometimes manually unlocking the iPod and entering the "Music" app and exiting, and sometimes entering the iPod configuration and exiting, just entering and exiting, and sometimes doing both of them one after another. This is a temporary sollution because it is really disturbing to do this process while driving with the iPod inside the cradle in the armrest. I wish i could downgrade to iOS4.1 where i was before and everything worked perfectly, as there are no new features i care in iOS5 or 6.
    I tried restoring the device in iTunes... 5-6 times in total since iOS5 release, tried using an iPhone 4s with iOS6 and the same problem happens, so obviously it is a bug present in latter iOS that it is not initializing correctly the screen when requested by external accessories.
    you can see in this BMW forum other people with the same isue: http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=602131
    I can provide photos or testing if needed
    Thanks and excuse my english.

    You say your turning it off does that mean you are holding in the sleep button and sliding the unit off or does it mean you are just locking the unit with the screen off?
    If you have the Wifi enabled and only have the IPT in standby mode then this is why it's depleting the battery so quickly. Charge the unit till it's full with the little plug showing and then eject it and turn off wifi and leave the unit in standby overnight and see if the battery depletes at all.
    I've noticed that Wifi really ***** the life out of the battery very quickly so give it a try and report back to us.

  • Hands Free Car Kit Problem

    I Have A Parrott Hands Free Car Kit - Paired To My Iphone Version 3.01 14.6 gb
    The Problem is I Cannot Answer Hands Free I Have To Slide To Answer
    No Problem Dialing As The Settings Are Basic I Cant Find The Solution
    Any Ideas Pls
    Tks

    In November I replaced my vehicle with one which has integrated bluetooth phone within the stereo system (2010 model Landrover). My previous Nokia N95 work perfectly with it and was so much clearer than the previous car kit.
    However, since upgrading? to the iphone on Orange (late November) when in the vehicle the connection between phone and car kit is lost way too often and the radio screen says "no network".
    I spoke to Landrover who say it's not their problem (probably right as the N95 worked fine).
    Any ideas would be welcome

  • 6230i CAR KIT PROBLEM

    Hi All,
    I have recently bought a car with a Nokia cak kit.
    Part nos;
    HFU-4
    AX-15S
    MBC-15S
    Which, from my limited internet ability, understand amounts to a CARK-126 kit.
    I purchased a Nokia 6230i,which I understand works with this kit, but when I connect the phone I get the message 'Enhancement not supported'.
    I have cleaned the connectors with an eraser, but to no avail.
    Please can anyone shed some light on the matter.
    Many thanks

    The message "Enhancement not supported" suggests a compatibility problem, and from the Nokia website I could not fnd CARK-126. Where did you find out that this car kit works with the Nokia 6230i? Was the source reliable?
    If it turns out that this car kit is not compatible and you do want to intall one into your car, use the Nokia website to find a suitable replacement for the CARK-126

  • Car Kit problem with 6680

    Can anybody please assist me!
    I have a CK-7W car kit which I have been successfully using until recently with a 6230i. Last week my phone was upgraded to a 6680 and was supplied through work with the CR-27 cradle. However, when this is connected to the existing cradle connector, I get the message 'enhancement not supported' on the phone.
    Any suggestions?Message Edited by phill_a on 15-Jan-2006
    09:48 AM

    Ok.
    I have now tried the CK-7W with my wife's Nokia 6100, just using the pop-port cable and it has similar problems;
    1. It thinks it is connected to a headset, not a car kit.
    2. The radio stays on "phone" mode.
    I didn't actually try making a call on it, but it seems odd that the problems are similar with another phone.
    With my 6680 and the CK-7W, the phone works fine via bluetooth, but again, thinks it is connected to a headset, not a car kit.
    When I connect through the pop-port cradle (CR-27) the radio stays on "phone" mode and the phone thinks it is connected to a headset. If I try to make a call, the sound is terrible, with loads of echo and feedback.
    Also, while I can "see" my HDW-2, I am unable to actually pair with it.
    What do I do?
    I have bought the genuine Nokia accessories, and this phone seems unable to work with them. Plus the CK-7W seem unable to connect to either my 6680 or 6100 via pop-port.
    What can be the problem?
    I am really annoyed with what is supposed to be a high quality product.
    Perhaps someone will respond?

  • Car kit problem HFU-5 control box

    I recently installed my car kit for my nokia 6230i and it worked great no problems.... now my radio is on constant mute and the phone is not connecting up when I put it on the cradle.........any suggestions

    The car kit may be frozen. Try disconnecting the power to it for a short time to reset it. That may work. If it is too difficult to disconnect the power, disconnect the car battery instead.

  • 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...

  • 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.

  • 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.
