N73 and voice dialing using Bluetooth car kit

Hi,
I have a N73 using v3.0638.0.0.01, its a vodafone phone. I have it set up with my CK-7W car kit and it works great except when I want to make a call. If I try and use voice dialling through the car kit it never finds my contact and simply say "no match found". If I put the phone directly in front of me and oice dial using the car kit it works.
Everything worked fine until the firmware was updated and I have restred my contacts from backup. The problem here is not that voice dialling isn't working, per se, but that it wont interact with the car kit since the firmware was updated.
Any ideas folks.
Chris

I have an iPhone 3G 16gig. I just bought a Kensington Liquid AUX Bluetooth Car Kit, paired everything up, and tested it out in the garage. The only downside (at that point) was that the included remote only controlled start and stop, not forward and back tracks. Later I tested it on the road and thought my ears were playing tricks on me when I heard the music changing pitch. Once I figured out it wasn't me, I changed tracks and even tried streaming radio and still, pitch up/pitch down, song faster/song slower. I noticed it got markedly worse when I tried to use another program while having the ipod play in the background, which makes me think it is a hardware issue; possibly the processor speed or "RAM" or however iPhones work. I am planning on trying it with my ipod and a bluetooth attachment I have for it to see if the music distorts. If it is the hardware on the phone, looks like apple forgot to mention as a selling point that the faster innards are needed for true A2DP stereo bluetooth! Another part of their brilliant scheme I guess!

  • E65 and AUDI A6 MMI Bluetooth Car Kit

    I am absolutely amazed at Nokia's unwillingness to consider close cooperation with major car manufacturers i.e. in my case AUDI.
    Having changed to a Business Phone from a SONY ERICSSON, i now find that the BT functionality is close to useless when compared with the Sony Protocols.
    It is time that NOKIA lived up to their tagline of connecting people and did something about maximising the functionality of the BT Car Kits out there rather than sending out the typical response of "please contact your 3rd party kit provider for configuration issues"
    Come on Nokia, you can do better and will be well served to do so . With all of the legislation in place on use of phones in cars, a lack of commitment to the market will loose customers and loose Nokia Market Share!

    Are you by any chance a vodafone customer? If so the vodafone software has been causing a lot of problems with bluetooth.
    If not then it is likely a compatibilty issue. My E65 has worked perfectly with every headset, kit and dongle that I've tried it with.
    It could also be a faulty phone.Message Edited by psychomania on 07-Jun-200703:13 PM

  • 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...

  • Iphone 4 voice Dial used to work great, but now, I can't get it to recognize voice commands. When i give it a command to call someone, it ends up repeating someone elses name and starts the call. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

    I have an I phone 4 with 32g.  The voice dial used to work just fine, but now it doesn't recognize the words and ends up saying someone elses name and starts calling the wrong person.  It even won't recognize a number when spoken to it and speaks back and calls the wrong numbers.
    Lately, the phone has really slowed down.  I am not sure if this is the problem.. I have closed all the open apps and deleted any extra picture off the card and extra songs that I have downloaded and the slow problem still exists. 
    Would a reset work to restore the phone to factory settings and if I then resync the phone, would all contacts pictures and songs be restored?

  • 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.

  • My elderly mother hss EXTREMELY limited vision and is a technophobe. I am considering an iPhone with Siri.  Can I turn off everything else so she can use only the phone app and voice dialing and not accidentally open any other app and screw something

    My elderly mother has EXTREMELY limited vision and is a technophobe. I am considering an iPhone with Siri.  Can I turn off everything else so she can use only the phone app and voice dialing or Siri and not accidentally open any other app and screw something up.

    I'm asking, in all seriousness, why do you think your mother needs an iPhone? Honestly, if your mother is, as you described her, a technophobe, I would recommend against getting an iPhone or any other smartphone. I've spent a fair bit of time teaching older folks to use smartphones. If they are interested in learning, it's fine. If they have the phone because their kids or grandkids thought it was a good idea but they are afraid of the phone or not interested in its features, it doesn't go well at all.
    Many basic phones have voice dialing. Obviously, it doesn't do all the things Siri does but it may be much less intimidating for your mom. Also, basic phones have hardware keys. Even someone with limited vision can learn the keyboard on such a phone. From the sound of your first post, all she will be doing is making phone calls.
    Best of luck.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 755p Voice Dial with BlueTooth

    I've searched all over the place for help with my quest to make my Treo 755p "Smart" phone have bluetooth voice dial capabilities.  What seems to be out-of-the-box functionality for many normal phones (no "smart" in their name) is apparently difficult to achieve with the Treo 755p, and apparently with all Treos from what I've seen so far.  Here's the conclusion that I'm coming to, but I just can't believe it, so I'm posting this here in the hopes the experts (that's you guys) will either correct my misunderstanding, or (hopefully not) confirm that I'm on the right track.
    APPARENTLY:
    Voice dial capability is not part of the Treo 755p; one has to install a 3rd party program or service to gain this functionality.  There are a few good options out there, but they do cost additional money.
    Voice dial programs apparently work pretty good with the wired headsets that come with the Treo package.  Apparently (although I have not tested it yet) pressing the button on the side of the treo or one the wired headset can be configured to activate the voice dial software, and the user can speak into the wired headset microphone to dial by voice.
    Extra digit dialing is apparently not supported by most (if any) of the software I've seen that works on the Palm platform.  (This is hard to tell exactly, because some software works only for the windows platform, which I don't have.)
    Bluetooth headsets configured in hands-free mode will launch the voice-dial software, but I've found that the treo does not connect the voice dial software to the bluetooth headset, so instructions are not heard through the headset and the headset microphone is ignored for voice dialing.  Others have apparently had the same issue, from what I've seen posted in this forum and on other fora as well.
    The only method I've heard of anyone successfully using a bluetooth headset for voice dialing with a Treo is to bypass the Treo Bluetooth Handsfree mode, purchase an extra bluetooth adapter meant to add bluetooth capabilities to non-bluetooth phones, and then pair the headset with that adapter.  This adapter typically costs $10-20, but is sort of big and must clip to your phone or to your belt.  This adapter plugs itself into the treo's headset jack and simulates a wired headset.  Apparently this mode works well, for yet more cost and additional bulk with makes it difficult to fit the phone into standard casings and/or take the phone out to work with the PDS without unplugging it.
    One such adapter is the Cardo "Node" (http://www.cardowireless.com/node/434), but you can't buy it from their website anymore so I'm looking for other options.
    I've heard that Jabra also has one, but I'm not sure of the model number, price, or form-factor.
    Am I on track with this?  This just doesn't sound right to me.  I've seen postings that users have had this issue from the earliest Treo models, so I would have thought that Palm would have addressed it by now.  I've always thought of Palm as a reputable and responsive company, so I'm hoping I've missed the "silver bullet" solution.  Can someone point me in the right direction?
    Many thanks.
    Bob Smiley
    Post relates to: Treo 755p (Sprint)

    I hope Palm is listening.
    It was good to see others as frustrated as I am about the Treo’s glaring deficiency – kind of a support group.  I kept thinking I must be wrong because I traded up from a dumb phone and couldn’t believe my new palm is incapable of Bluetooth voice dialing. 
    The voice dialing companies all say it’s a problem with the Treos. I have asked the people at Palm and, though they are very nice, they haven't been able to help.  The people I spoke with didn’t seem to understand what I wanted and then spent a great deal of time trying to find the answer.  In the end, they confirmed:   you can get Bluetooth with a Treo, and you can get voice dialing with a Treo, but you can't get voice dialing over Bluetooth.  They didn't know if a solution was in the works.
    I am really puzzled about this problem.  How hard can this be?  As Bob Smiley said, you can get a Bluetooth adapter to simulate a wired headset, and any one of us could superglue it to the Treo, but why?   
    It seems to me that this is such a basic function that, especially with all the upgrades, they should be able to fix it easily.  My impression is that no one at Palm is working on this and that no one is scheduled to work on this, but I hope I’m wrong.

  • 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

  • Connecting two mobile to the one bluetooth car kit...

    Is it possible to connect two mobile phones to the same bluetooth car kit at the same time?

    I dont think its possible, i may be wrong, but imagine if both phones were connected to the car kit and they both got a phone call, there is no way it would work as it would not know what phone to connect.
    So i dont think its possible.
    My posts are my opinion and in no way the direct views of Nokia.

  • 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:

  • 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.

  • Any Suggestions on a Bluetooth Car Kit for iPhone 3G

    Any suggestions on a bluetooth car kit to go with my iPhone 3G. I could get a bluetooth earpiece, but I would really only need this in my car because of the new California law.

    Hi Mike,
    What's your budget? For less than $2,000 U.S. you could get into an ARRI kit with a 650W and two 300W heads. This is what I would use. If you don't even have $1K for a Lowell kit, do an internet search for budget kits and home made setups. I saw some kits for as low as $99 to $399.
