Iphone car kit echo problem

I have a Nokia CK-7W car kit installed in my car, has always worked seamlessly with a variety of cellphones ( nokia, sony etc ) - have just got the 8gb iphone in the UK and in the car it sounds great. However, whoever I'm calling complains of a bad echo on their end of the conversation. Turning the volume down in car helps subdue this but doesn't solve it....
Any ideas appreciated !

I think you could be on the right track Daan.
The problems I experienced with the CK-7W and Nokia 6300 (see earlier post above) seem to have been resolved with a Nokia software update for the 6300 (v 5.5), I read somewhere that the Nokia software update fixed a problem with the 6300 handset microphone staying active when connected to the CK-7W. All the echo problems seem to have stopped and callers agree the call quality is now improved.
I vaguely remember reading on these forums of someone reporting that adjusting the volume on the iPhone itself helped with echo problems.
Alternatively, have you tried turning down the speaker volume with the CK-7W control button when a call is active, this also may help.
I hope this is sorted for you soon, I know how frustrating these issues can be!!!

Magellan Iphone car kit

I just wanted to let you all know how nice the new magellan iphone car kit is for the iphone. I think it is the best car mount on the market and really enhances the iphone while in the car. I had a magellan roadmate before and was very happy with the magellan roadmate app for my iphone. If you are looking at getting a cradle for your unit for your magellan app or tomtom app this new magellan cradle is great. You can go to magellangps.com to get it or autonavdirect has it also. Just remember its not just for the magellan app but enhances your iphone for many other features and apps

I am looking for a suitable iphone 3GS car holder, so I can have my iphone held in portrait and landscape positions. I see that the Magellan Car Kit is recommended here on this discussion but is it avail in the UK do you know and if so where ?
am very surprised by all the bad reviews I have seen at Amazon for example on various makes of iphone car holders, not one of them seems to have got it quite right. The biggest problem seems to be accommodating iphones that have either film protection on the screen or are enclosed in a carrying case.
My iphone only has the protective film.
Can you recommend a holder.
Also is there a way I can make my iphone 3GS into a GPS device so that I only require the one device in the car ?

Car Kit voicedial problem (ck-7w & 6300)

Hi
I have a ck-7w. When it was paired with my 6233 the voicedialling work brilliantly in the car. Now I have a 6300. If I am travelling in my car at more than 10mph then I ALWAYS get "No Match Found". This never happened with the 6233. My 6300 is on v4.7 and the 6233 v4.91.
Please help, as without voicedialing the car kit is useless!
Daniel

You will have to re-record your voice tags whilst there is lots of road noise. Then it will work fine, I had to do this with mine.

IPhone Car Kit Compatibility

I was wondering if anyone knows if the iPhone is compatible with the JVC KD-G720 car stereo. I wouldn't want to buy one if it wont work in my car. Thanks.

Unless it actually says it's compatible with the iPhone the odds are it won't work completely with it.
Can you take your phone into wherever they are selling it and actually test it out? I realize you might be ordering it online, but perhaps you can find a local dealer who will allow a physical test.
(Oh, and make sure you've upgraded to at least 1.1.1 in firmware -- this did seem to fix some issues with car compatibility).

N95 Car Kit connectivity problems

I have a Parrot LS 3200 carkit. My phone connects ok but when I make or receive a call the LS3200 crashes, screen goes blank then reboots and reconnects to phone. I have been informed that it is a problem with N series phones. Can any one offer a solution?

Hi,
My N95 makes and receives calls perfectly. What it doesn't do is access my contacts on my phones automatically.
Perhaps try deleting the existing pairing and create a new pairing???

610 Car Kit connection problem, help please!

Hi, I have a 610 and have just switched from a Nokia 8800 to the new 6500 Classic.
The 6500 doesn't seem to want to connect first up and the always comes up with a message User 1 or User 2 not found.
It offers the 'reconnect' or 'assign SIM card' options but this means that I have to input the 16 digit code (although I have turned off the authorisation request!).
When it is connected it works perfectly!
Can anyone suggest a solution please?
Thanks
Nigel

Hi,
I just talked directly to Nokia to be told that the 6500 Classic isn't compatible with the 610!
They said I was extremely fortunate that it worked at all!!
Anyway, now I need either to 'downgrade' the phone to one compatible with the 610 or invest in a CK-15W which is compatible with the 6500!
Well done Nokia for an excellent piece of marketing - forcing people to constantly upgrade their technology really endears the Nokia brand!

Car kit automatic A2DP connection

I'm not entirely sure if this is a problem on my phone, or with the car kit, but I figured if I post on both ends, someone might know the answer.
With my N95 and N97, as soon as I turn on my car (equipped with Nokia CK-100), I automatically get connected to BT HFP and A2DP profiles. The car kit will tell me, "Phone connected." A second later, "Player connected." With the N8, the car kit will only connect to just the phone automatically. For the player to connect while the car is on, I have to open up the music player and play a song, which will then force N8 to make the A2DP connection. So when that happens, you hear a 1.5 second message saying, "Player connected" followed by music that is already 2 to 3 seconds into the song. I thought it was perhaps the Car Kit getting full with the list of paired devices (memory is for 8 pairings), but clearing the list doesn't help. I thought it was the Car Kit firmware, so I upgraded it to 4.401, no luck. Then when I paired my old N97 and N95, both HFP and A2DP connections were made automatically when I boot up my car as expected! But not the N8.
Problem with the Car Kit, or problem with S^3?

The N8 on PR1 is still not a good excuse for the many bugs that it has. It's just unimaginable that something that worked solidly with S60v3 and S60v5 and suddenly with the improved Symbian OS a mature and functional feature suddenly has a bug? I just don't understand how that could've made it into the N8. Is it the OS? Or is it the BT chipset? In either case, quality control got missed.
Thanks, though, for letting me know that I'm not the only one to experience this. I'll stop trying to fix this as this is a problem outside of my control.

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.

IPhone 5s connecting to BMW car kit problems

Why does my iPhone 5s keep dropping connection to my BMW 5 series car kit . Also why can I not see my emails or text messages

Who told you it would?

Does the iPhone 4S work with the tom-tom car kit?

The tomtom car kit still works fine with my old iPhone 4. I can not get it to work with my iPhone 4S at all it does not recognize the car kit.

I also posted this problem on the tomtom fourums and got a fix from a user. In addtion to the iphone 4 adapter I used a peice of velcro on top of the existing adapter I had in place. Now it works with the iphone 4S. I guess the 4S is slightly thinner the the 4.

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

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?

Iphone with Parrot 3200 LS Hands Free Car kit: photos for contacts?

Hello,
Is anyone else using the Parrot 3200 LS hands free car kit with your iphone? I have one, and so for it's been great, but I can't figure out how to get the photos associated with my contacts to transfer to the contacts in the Parrot unit. It synced the contacts no problem, just no photos with them. Has anyone been able to get their photos to come up on the parrot unit? How?
Thanks,
Dana

I have had the 3200 LS for 3 months. I havn't seen the photos transfer. Either my Parrot or my iphone does not work right. They will work showing my address book for two or three days then they will not pair for 3 or 4 weeks. I'm in one of those not pairing periods now. The grey symbol is lit. Under bluetooth it shows that they are paired but they don't work. Anyone got any ideas? I'll try working on the photos the next time it decides to work.

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.

Bluetooth/Car Kit Feedback & Echo

Hi
My boss has told me that he has a problem with his phone. it's a Nokia 6120C. He is getting a feedback/echo when he is in the car. He has Bluetooth and also a car kit. He seems to think that they are both working at the same time, hence he gets an echo.
Apologies for not knowing or understanding fully what is going on here.
i would think that you could just turn one off and use the other?? is that possible?
Any thoughts, solutions are welcomed.
Thanks
Solved!
