Original iphone/2.0 software/bmw 328i/bluetooth problems

I have the original iphone; updated to 2.0. The bluetooth used to work great with the bmw - now with the 2.0, the phone locks up & major problems connecting, staying connected. Address book no longer syncs either. I re-paired the phone, but no dice. Any other ideas?...
Thank you

2.0.1 fixed the matter regarding the bluetooth....
the address book sync has been an issue from the beginning... who knows..
the phone is snappier... it works... I can live....

2012 BMW 328I Bluetooth Problem

I realize this is not the most important problem but Im wondering if anyone else is having this problem - I get an error from the car (2012 BMW 328I) when I try to setup Bluetooth pairing with my iPhone 5 running IOS 6.0.1
Im wondering if anyone else is having this or a similar problem - I had an iPhone 4S running IOS 5.1 which worked fine so im wondering if this is an iPhone 5 or IOS 6 problem

got my bluetooth to work - must have been some temporary problem

IOS6.1 and BMW X5 Bluetooth problem

Couldn't find any result of Google so here I go:
iPhone 4S and recently updated iOS 6.1 WILL NOT pair with 2011 BMW X5. The phone worked fine with my car bluetooh until I upgraded it to iOS 6.1. It will trying to pair for a few second then saying that "make sure the car's bluetooth is on or in range" I was sitting in the car! My other iPhone that is running iOS5.0.1 successfully paired with the X5.
I know for sure this MUST BE iOS6 issue because the same phone (iOS6.1) successfully paired with my 2007 BMW 328i.
Anyone else has the same issue since updating to iOS6.1?
Pleaase fix this Apple.

Never mind. I ended up deleting the pairing from both phone and car. Fixed.

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.

Iphone ios 6.1.3 wifi bluetooth problem since update

Hi,
It seems that Apple has a problem with the Iphone 4s IOS update 6.1.3.
Since i updated my Wifi and Bluetooth on my phone have fallen over / failed.
wifi is unable to be switched from off to on (greyed out)
Bluetooth will not turnon either just icon circling around.
After looking at some of the meesages on he it would seem that the update has damage the phone???
I have backed up, removed all settings, restored the phone but no joy.
I will try putting the phone in the freezer, yes this has been suggested as a fix.
Failing that i will have to return the Phone the Vodafone /Apple for them to sort.
Not very happy at all.
Apple please sort this issue, and quick!!!

Same problem. I've tried the apple support site recommendations... reset network settings etc. No result. The problem is that there is no place to enter the needed pin code any more. The dialog box needed for that is completely absent. And on top of that if you actually want to communicate with a tech support person (for a problem caused by Apple programming to begin with) you will actually have to pay for said support first. I have to say that Apple is feeling more like Microsoft all the time. A company I avoid like the plague because of experiences like this that I have had to suffer over and over again. To bad. Apple was a really great company. A really great movement in the tech world at one time. No more though. Time to quit beating a dead horse with a stick and switch to Samsung I guess. That means getting rid of all my apple laptops and desktops too I guess. What a bummer!

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 2.0 software/Exchange contacts question

I have my contacts on Exchange (2003) arranged as "active" contacts and "non-active" contacts. The reason I did this is because I wanted a manageable number of contacts on my iPhone (and in my BMW's bluetooth register). With the iPhone 1.0 software, when using IMAP/Exchange sync, the phone's contacts only synced the "active" contacts.
Now that I have the 2.0 sofware and have enabled Exchange syncing (which works great), the contact app on the phone syncs both active and not-active contacts, which brings me back to the original problem of too many contacts on the phone and in the car.
So my question is, can I get the iPhone to only sync my "active" contacts list?

Lots of us have these problems. You just have to grin and bear it until Apple gives us a FW fix. Which hopefully won't be too long.

Outlook Sync with IPhone 2.0 Software

Has the issue with the 2.0 software not syncing with Outlook been resolved. I did a search and it indicated that Service Pack 3 needs to be downloaded for Outlook 2003 to sync with contacts - but I need Calender items also.
I wanted to ask before I try again (concerned about losing data).
Thank you!

I've been syncing to Outlook 2003 since I got my original iPhone, through all software versions up to and including 2.0.2. No real problems and I don't have Service Pack 3 yet. Just SP2.

Software v3.0 and original iPhone

I've read that two features in the 3.0 software won't work on the original iphone: stereo bluetooth and graphics texting. Most others will: cut and paste, landscape modes, etc. Anyone know if any of the other new features won't work on the original iPhone? Thanks.

As far as we know, the only two new features that won't work are MMS and A2DP.
Keep in mind that other things, such as navigation software that uses the GPS chip, will also not work due to hardware limitations.

My iPhone 3GS no longer connects through Bluetooth to my MacBook Air, nor my BMW X3. Is this fixable?

My iPhone 3GS no longer connects through Bluetooth to my MacBook Air nor my BMW X3. I've made no recent adjustments, it's just stopped functioning. Any ideas? Can this be fixed, or is my iPhone on the way out?

Problem solved!! I finally managed to pair the SE HCB-100 car kit speakerphone with the 3GS. I surfed the SE web site and it mentioned resetting the speakerphone. Tried it on 'one color ID' but it didn't work so I did it on all 'color IDs' and left it on reset mode when it 'accidentally' was picked up by my 3GS while searching!!! Found 'headset' and then recognised it as HCB-100. One happy guy for the holidays!!!

What are you trying to connect the iPhone to and what is happening when you try?

2.0 software on original iPhone - Nightmare

Any of you having any or all of these same problems now that you have 2.0 software?
1) Getting a text message, clicking "Reply" and watching it sit, blank, on the screen, indefinitely, because it simply never loads the texts now?
2) Getting a text message, clicking "Reply" and watching it sit, blank, on the screen until you get angry and start pressing buttons, THEN it appears?
3) Waiting upwards of 5 to 10 seconds just for the "Notes" feature to allow you to do ANYTHING like type on it, or edit it?
4) Using the Maps feature, clicking things, not responding, clicking again with your finger, waiting 5 to 7 seconds for things to respond?
5) Trying to type, and something is just plain different. It doesnt flow as smoothly. It doesnt spell words correctly as often. It makes stupid mistakes and actually suggests NON words as you type. I used to be able to type the "F" word and now I get "rich" every time instead, or "fuch" which isnt even a word! Is it?
6) Having to stretch just a little farther when you type because they spaced the keyboard keys a little further apart for all those people with fat fingers who complained...
7) Trying to bring up your contacts, and immediately start scrolling, but you cant. Just simply cant. For 1 second, 2 seconds, 4 seconds, then l...okay now you can scroll ... and by that time you've already tried to scroll to "P" but kept trying and so it ends up on "Z" instead because it remembers all your finger actions while it was FROZEN?
This is crap. Nightmare. This thing has been downgraded in my opinion. If the original iPhone shipped like this, people would have complained to high heaven. Maybe this is their way of getting us to buy another phone (3G) with the "faster processor". Upsell technique?
Is anyone else having these problems? Any solutions you've found?
Thank you!

Yea, I had the same problems. There are MANY threads on here listing the exact same problems. I took mine to the Apple Store and exchanged it for a new one with 1.1.4 installed. If the Original iPhone shipped like this they would have had a hard time selling them as the user experience is terrible.
Hopefully an update will be released soon to alleviate these problems...until then I'm sticking to 1.1.4. (and even if they do release an update I am waiting to see how it is received before I guinea pig it again)
The saddest part is that your backup is now in 2.0 so if you exchange your iPhone you will have to start all over as new. None of your "Notes", SMS's, Weather locations, Stocks, Bookmarked YouTube videos, Home screen shortcuts, Google Maps bookmarks ,email accounts or photo's will be saved. I suggest backing up the photos you took with your iPhone using iPhoto (or Windows Explorer) and writing down any important notes on, God forbid, paper. Everything else will have to be redone. Oh also make sure you sync your music purchased on the iPhone back to your computer (which it usually does by default) or you'll lose those too.
Terrible, terrible state of affairs this update has been. I just wish I knew why some people do NOT have, or seem to have problems. I ran the official update and used the restore feature several times but nothing worked. Maybe they just don't use the features enough to notice the difference but I use mine every day and, as I am quite the proficient iPhone typist, I noticed it almost immediately and it drove me crazy.
I feel your pain!

Bluetooth not working on original iphone after 2.1 update

Just updated my original iphone to 2.1 and all my pairings for bluetooth are gone. Also when I attempt to re-pair the bluetooth section just displays a spinning circle and refuses to recognize any of my bluetooth devices.

Hi jopiii,
Try Resetting Network Settings on the iPhone, go to Settings> General> Reset> Reset Network Settings.
Then make the bluetooth headset discoverable and pair it to the iPhone as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1664
