Samsung Convoy Bluetooth connection

I have a Samsung Convoy and 90% of the time I have to turn the phone off and back on to get the phone to connect with the Jawnone Icon . I have tried removing and re-pairing the Jawbone and phone and it didn't help. Any suggestions?

I recommend that you do a battery pull for your device. Please remove the battery, press and hold the power button for ten seconds. Replace the battery and power the device on. Once the device is on, try pairing the device with the Blue Tooth.

Samsung M320 Bluetooth connection to Tx

I can pair my Samsung to the Tx, but it will not connect. Are there drivers suitable for the phone? I have updated the drivers however there are none listed for Samsung, Can another be used? Currently, I have paired using the universal driver.
Post relates to: Palm TX

Only Samsung drivers I've seen are for sale here:

They do offer a free trial. Be advised, much depends on who your cell provider is - not all of them allow access to their network by an external device!

Samsung Convoy 3 bluetooth connection problem

I am having connection issues with my Samsung Convoy 3 phone and Jabra Drive bluetooth. Initially the phone and device paired and connected great. I could leave the car and reconnect to the bluetooth with out an issue. Recently though, I have turned on the phone bluetooth then the Jabra Drive and they do not connect. I finally get them to connect after playing with different combinations of connecting on the phone and turning off and on the Jabra Drive. Although, it is not consistent on what combinations work. I have had to turn off the Convoy 3 and turn it back on if there was still a connection failure. Today, I had to turn the phone off and back on after the bluetooth functions were totally unavailable on the Convoy 3. Are other people having bluetooth connection issues with the Samsung Convoy 3? Is there a solution to this issue?

I have had the unit for just over 2 months and started having the issue about a month ago. Also, there is something new whick occured. When in the bluetooth menu on the phone trying to reconnect, the phone froze and rebooted (turned off and back on) by itsself. I have not tried the phone with a bluetooth headset since I do not currently have one - I would only use one in my car so I opted for an in car unit. My father has the same phone with the Jabra Drive unit and is experiencing the same problem. Other people I know are using the Jabra Drive and do not seem to be having this same issue with their phone and bluetooth unit. In the mean time, I will try to locate a bluetooth headset and see what happens.

Bluetooth connection with Samsung u740 not working quite right?

I have a new Samsung u740 cell phone and I set it up to sync my contacts b/w the computer and the phone. I also set it up so when someone calls me it pops up on my computer who's calling, but when someone calls it just says "unknown caller". I have synced the contacts on both devices. Does anyone have any advice on what to do?
Thanks Taylor

With your bluetooth connection does your computer allow you to answer the calls? I am currently working on the same issue but with same problems.

Convoy 2 bluetooth connection problems

We have 48 Convoy 2 phones. Three of these need to use bluetooth. All three of the Convoy 2 phones that need to use bluetooth have problems staying connected to their paired devices. Two of the phones need to connect to Jawbone headsets. We have carefully followed instructions and factory reset the the Jawbones then paired them with the Covoy 2. The connections drop off/on dozens of times per day. The connection distance is only two feet. The third phone has a bluetooth connection to a Jeep Command Center for hands free phone use while driving. It has a connection distance of less than two feet. It drops the connection but does not auto reconnect. One must turn the Convoy 2 off/on to reconnect.
Has anyone else experienced bluetooth problems with the Convoy 2? Any suggestion regarding the Jawbones? These are expensive two year old headsets with bluetooth v2.0. The Convoy 2 has bluetooth v2.1, which is supposed to be backward compatible with earlier bluetooth versions.

Does anyone from Verizon read these posts?
Turns out there is a Verizon Bluetooth website: here. The model of Jawbone with which we are having difficulty is not on the list of devices for the Convoy 2. Does this mean it is not compatible? We purchased the Jawbones (JBT03 and JBT04) in August 2009. The specs of these models say they are compatible with bluetooth v2.1 phones, That's the same version of bluetooth used by the Convoy 2. These Jawbones worked fine with the Verizon phones replaced by the Convoy 2. By the way, we tried pairing the Convoy 2 with a recent Motorola headset. Like the Jawbones, the communication between the Motorola headset and the Convoy 2 phone spontaneously switched off/on dozens of times per day.

I can get the phone to start dialing, but the call always fails and the computer (an iBook running 10.4.7) says that no carrier was detected.
is there a special modem script I should be running?
is there some special procedure I'm missing?
any help would be greatly appreciated

Using the Samsung convoy 2 with Microsoft Sync

After I pair my Samsung Convoy 2 phone with Sync it only works sometimes. It seems like when I get into the car it is not connecting via Bluetooth all the time. I hit the phone button on my stering wheel and it Sync says no phone found, I will try to connect one. My previous phone worked fine so I know the Sync system is functioning fine. Any ideas or is anyone currently using this phone with Sync?

I've got a Ford Edge with Microsoft's Sync system. It works pretty well with both my iPhone and my 5th Gen iPod. Playlists and all.
The biggest issue I have now is that the play count on podcasts (and presumably all music) doesn't get updated/credited for items played via Sync. This is an issue for me since the iPhone's relatively small storage space makes use of Smart Playlists essential, and most of my playlists have "play count - 0" on them to ensure fresh podcasts are synced up. I'll have to post about that in a new thread perhaps.
re: your specific issue, I don't think this will fix it, but Microsoft's Ford Sync is very picky about all metadata tags being complete on all items (artist, track, album, etc). Sync won't index items that don't have proper metadata, and if it doesn't index them, I'm going to assume it can't see them to play them under all the right circumstances.

Bluetooth connection problem

Using Jabra EASYCALL Bluetooth headset, but connection is working unreliable: Sometimes in the middle of the talk party is unable to hear me, I still could hear party. In this case party usually ends conversation, and then we do call again, and after re-call, party can hear you again, but at any time it could happen again.
Also sometime after pairing headset and phone phone is reporting that connected, but won't let use headset, still using phone mic/speaker. Sometimes it is enough to turn Bluetooth off/on on the phone, but sometimes I have to do this several times, optionally including headset on/off.
I'm pretty sure that this is Phone problem, because same headset is working flawlessly with older Xperia phone and also with many other phones and also.

Hi,
I use Bluetooth for my build-in carkit (Toyota Corolla Verso from 2006), my MDEX remote for my hearing aids, my Smartwatch SW2 from Sony, my Samsung Tablet (Bluetooth Tethering) and my wife's Samsung smartphone (also Bluetooth Tethering as she has an unlimited data account :-) ).
It all works great except for the MDEX: this device is no longer automatically connected when I switch it on, while before the update to 14.3.A.0.757, it was working great. Now I have to manually connect.
Phone calls over the Toyota carkit and MDEX (from WIDEX) works without any interruption (and my calls are long, some over one hour).
I suspect that it might be a compatibility issue between BT 4.1 from the Z1Compact and the Jabra headsets, something what was already the case for BT 1.0 etc. The specifications for the Headset and Handsfree Profiles within Bluetooth are being interpreted differently by various manufacturers. The SIG (the organisation which has to approve the products before a manufacturer is allowed to use the word "Bluetooth") seems to miss some flaws in the Bluetooth firmware from either Sony and/or Jabra.
For some years I had a living by testing Sony Ericsson Bluetooth products against competitor Bluetooth products and I can tell you: a lot of issues which never got solved in a good way.
Try to get your headset reflashed with the latest firmware, if all possible.
Otherwise, check the compatibility list for the Xperia Z1 Compact: here you see all Bluetooth headsets which have been tested against this phone.

Samsung Convoy 2 Questions

I recently switched from a Blackberry Curve to a Samsung Convoy 2. I just have two questions I'm hoping someone here can answer.
1. Why is this considered a basic phone rather than a smart phone? So far, it seems to have the capability to do everything my Blackberry did.
2. When I was setting up the phone, I thought I stumbled across a way to record your own ringtone. I'm a pianist and would love to make my own. In looking through the phone menus and the online manual, I don't see it as an option.
Thanks!

Good morning suzsubaru1955,
You make a very good point about why the Samsung Convoy 2 isn't a smartphone. I agree with you that this device has some attractive features that we come to expect in a smartphone. A vague definition of a smartphone is a mobile cellular device that also have PDA capabilities. Smartphones provide the end users a mobile experience that traditionally mirrors a PC, Mac, laptop, etc. The computing ability of a smartphone is more versatile than a feature phone. Below, I have listed some of the characteristics that makes a device a smartphone.
1. A standalone mobile operating system.
2. Full HTML web browsers
3. Portable media players
4. Touch screen navigation
5. Various networking capabilities (Bluetooth, wi-fi, broadband)
Although there are more characteristics that can be listed to describe a smartphone, the 5 above a the most popular ones. I see that you are interested in creating your own ringtones. This ability is traditionally not offered in a feature phone. It is often found in the capabilities of a smartphone. There are third party apps that allow you to create customized ringtones available. A great place to start would be to google create your own ringtones. You will find several links, usually programs that work with the PC/Mac, that can help you create customized ringtones. If you have any additional questions or concerns then don't hesitate to reply to this message.
Good luck & happy ringtone shopping!

Spotify losts bluetooth connection

I'm using Spotify on my Samsung Galaxy S3 (Android 4.3). Lately, when I listen to Spotify through my mobile phone, which is linked with bluetooth to a LG soundbar, the bluetooth connection breaks up after every song and it needs to be reconnected after each song. There's no such problem when using a different player (e.g. Google Play Music) with bluetooth connection.

I've been suffering for the same problem with my S3. I use Spotify connected via Bluetooth to my Volvo and once song is changed Bluetooth connection drops. Issue only occurs when using Spotify. Occasionally there is a error message "Bluetooth share has stopped working". I have made hard reset and swapped the phone, but no cure for the pain. This is very annoying issue and I have to blame Spotify for the problem.

Samsung Convoy 2 delayed answering

recently got a Samsung Convoy 2 and am having some issues. The main thing is that if someone calls me, there is a 4 to 5 second delay before it actually connects and they can hear me. So most of the time I say "hello" and they didn't hear me because it hadn't connected and they miss what ever I said. I noticed that the screen also has a delay (as far as the time of the call starting up). Anybody have this issue and does anybody know how to fix that?

If you are using the standard Verizon voicemail, then call in via *86, choose option 4, Personal Options, then 3, Greeting, and follow the prompts to change your personal greeting.

Samsung Convoy as USB Modem

Can I use my Samsung Convoy as a USB modem to connect my Netbook to the internet? My netbook has Windows 7 Starter and when I try to use the phone as a modem it asks for the device SSID during the connection process. I have no idea how to find out what my phone SSID is or if that's all I need to find to make the connection work. Any guidance on whether this can be done and, if so, how to do it would be much appreciated.

Hi Jake1313,
Great news! Your Samsung Convoy device is Mobile Broadband Connect capable. This means you can use your phone as a modem to access the internet on your computer. You just have to add the $20/2GB Mobile Broadband Connect feature to your Verizon Wireless calling plan (overage rate is $20.00 per GB. You can add this feature online if you access your My Verizon account, or we can add for you if you call us at 1-800-922-0204 when you are ready to add this feature.

Does anyone have advice for Samsung Convoy & Pacemaker conflict?

When I first got my Samsung Convoy it turned my Bluetooth on and off constantly. I tried different brands of Bluetooths then the Verizon Agent got Tech Services to replace it with a refurbished Convoy which did the same thing! The Agent and I determined that the only thing could be causing it was my Pacemaker and he found a few posts by people with similar problems. The Verizon Tech folks stated that they'd never heard of the problem and suggested that I just don't use a Bluetooth. I didn't but found that sometimes when I walked into a room where the phone was the display lit up! Now it has begun turning itself off! Any suggestion will be welcomed I'm only 13 months into the 2 year upgrade and really can't afford to outright buy a phone that I know won't react to my Pacemaker.

Good Morning ME3668. That is definitely an odd situation with regards to your Bluetooth service turning on and off. I did some research with regards to EMC compatibility, but most of the data out there is with regards to making sure the cell phones do not cause any interference with pacemakers.
While there is not a lot of information out on this particular situation, there are a few things that can be tested. One thing I thought about is maybe to test out a wired headset for when you are driving or at home. This way you still have hands free options, while a more permanent solution can be found
You mentioned that you may consider looking for a new phone, but did not want to purchase one without knowing if it will work properly. We can definitely help out with regards to helping you find a device that will not have this Bluetooth issue. If you have a moment, please reach out to one of our direct store locations, and we can definitely help test different models, and help find one that will not have this recurring issue. Here is a link to help find the closest location to you: http://bit.ly/3SdsA
Let us know if you have any addtional questions. Thank you ME3668. Happy Holidays.

The headset may be switched on but is it in pairing mode? If not, the phone will not see it and you won't be able to pair the two together.

Google Play Music not playing on Bluetooth connect

I have a SONY E2033 EG4 DUAL, I used to have a Samsung S5. On my Samsung and all other Android phones I have had, my music playlist would auto-start once connected to the car bluetooth. From a google search (ie, "android autoplay music bluetooth") all listings are how to prevent Auto-Play, so I assume this is the default behaviour. With my SONY phone, I literally have to pull the phone out of my pocket, start Google Play and hit Play. The car controls do not work by default. The bluetooth connection is working OK, but for some reason the controls are not being forwarded to Google Play Music until I start the app manually. Is there another SONY app which is taking the requests by default ? How can I override this behaviour ?
