Sony DSX-S310BTX and Samsung Galaxy S II

I recently installed a Sony DSX-S310BTX Digital Media Receiver in my truck and I paired it with my Samsung Galaxy S II running Android 2.3.6.
I am very happy with the unit but I love figuring out all of my options and I have been unsuccessful finding an answer through Sony's chat and email options. The main reason is because Sony's compatibility list for Samsung devices has not been updated to include my phone. (http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/suppor ... nfo_id=653)
I am looking for someone who has experience with similar devices to help me out with a couple of questions.
1. I use the bluetooth stereo feature on the sony unit to listen to streaming music playing on my phone. Why does the “pause” light blink when listening to Bluetooth stereo? P. 37 provides directions for how to connect and play. I can successfully do this but the blinking pause light doesn't go away - it doesn't matter if I click pause on the unit or not.
2. I am having trouble adding phone numbers to the preset list. I have reviewed the manual. P. 36 provides instructions for how to do this. I can successfully complete steps 1 through 3. Step 4 simply says "send the phonebook data by operating the phone". I'm not sure what "operating the phone" means.
3. The "new text message" indicator doesn't work for me. Is there something I am supposed to do to make this work?
4. When the unit lights are "dimmed" does that mean its only the display screen itself and not the red/blue lights on the buttons?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hello,
Welcome to the User Discussion Forums.
after consulting with our Engineering team here are the answers to your question. Thank you for your post.
1. Why does the “pause” light blink when listening to Bluetooth stereo?
Three phones here were tested and none of them produced this issue. One phone was a Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket.
2. trouble adding phone numbers to the preset list.
Once you have set the head unit to receive the phonebook, on the phone you need to navigate to the contacts section where it has the option to send the phone book via Bluetooth. The term “operating phone” means the phone that you have successfully paired with the head unit. You are doing the correct steps, just need to complete them using the menus on the phone you have paired with the head unit.
3. The "new text message" indicator doesn't work for me. Is there something I am supposed to do to make this work?
We tested 4 phones and the Motorola Photon got the indication but the Samsung Galaxy S II did not, possibly an incompatibility with that manufactures ROM. please check with the manufacturer of your phone or your service provider.
4. When the unit lights are "dimmed" does that mean its only the display screen itself and not the red/blue lights on the buttons?
Yes, when using the dimming function the display is the only thing that dims.

  • Sony DSX-S310BTX and Samsung Galaxy S4

    Hello,
    I have been using the DSX-S310BTX for awhile now, got my new Samsung Galaxy S4 and found I could not pair it with deck.  The phone does not see the deck at all.  Bluetooth is on on both devices.  The phone can pair with other devices no problem, but not the deck.  I am a bit upset about this, I enjoy streaming pandora from my phone through the deck, but now I must consider getting a different deck if I can' resolve this.  I hope you team can help me.
    My second problem with the deck is that it sometimes doesn't see my ipod classic when it is installed in the internal bay.  They only way I have resolved this is by pulling the power of the deck from the car!  Then it works for about a week before it stops working again.
    P.S. I have compared the specification of both devices and they look like it should work with bluetooth.
    Solved!

    Hi dobest,
    Before the pairing is made with the Samsung smartphone, set the Sony unit to pairing standby mode.
    While connected to a Bluetooth device, this unit cannot be detected from another device. Disconnect the current connection and search for this unit from another device.
    When the device pairing is made, set the Bluetooth signal output to on
    Also, check the pairing and connection procedures in the manual of the smartphone, and perform the operation again.

  • How to transfer contacts from sony xperia z2 to samsung galaxy s5

    I was wondering if someone could tell me how to transfer my contacts from my sony xperia z2 over to my samsung galaxy s5. Thanks 

    You can download the free app Samsung Smart Switch from Google Play store, then install it on both Sony Xperia and Samsung Galaxy S5. Run it on the two phones, then you can transfer all contacts from Sony to Samsung quickly.Alternatively, you can also transfer contacts from Android to Android with the helpful of one-click phone to phone data transfer tools.

  • Profile for Sony DSC-P200 and Samsung NV24HD created

    Hi,
    just started plying around with LPC and create a profile for my old pictures from the Sony DSC-P200 and Samsung NV24HD.
    I have uploaded/emailed them to Adobe, so they should show up in the near future.

    Hi simonsaith,
    Is it the Samsung NV24HD (Samsung 4.3-15.5 mm  F2.8-5.9) profile that you added?
    Yes, that's it.
    In the camera make drop down, if you type in "samsun" (which will trigger ALPD to do a wildcard search that matches any make that contains "samsun", your profile will actually show up. This is because the camera embedded "SAMSUNG TECHWIN" as the camera make for the EXIF.
    Thanks for telling me. I would not have expected that I can do a wildcard search in a dropdown field there. I suggest making this more obvious in a next software version. I bet very few users are aware of it.
    The naming things has some more traps. The built in lens' maker is actually called "Schneider-Kreuznach", but LPC seems to have issues with double names and creates a "Schneider". That's why I renamed it to "Samsung" to keep it in an existing group. I hope future software versions can cope a little better with this.
    This seems similar to the behaviour when I put in "Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar ..." into the Sony DSC-P200 lenstype.
    That special camera actually is also even more difficult for LPC when it comes to the model type. I did shorten it in the profile. The model is given as "NV24HD, VLUU NV24HD, LANDIAO NV106HD" which is a little clumsy when used as profile name.

  • Sony MDR-1RBT with Samsung Galaxy Tab 2?

    I've successfully paired my new Sony MDR-1RBT Bluetooth headphones with my Samsung Galaxy S3 phone.  However, I can't get them to pair with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 tablet.  Are they compatible?
    I held the button for 7 seconds until I heard the sound and the red/blue lights flashed.  The Galaxy Tab was discoverable but never found the headphones.  I tried restarting the tablet, restarting the headphones, etc.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated - these headphones were too expensive to not work with all my devices. 
    Solved!

    I figured this out today - I realized I had to hold the power button long enough to see a red flash and then keep holding until I hear a second tone and a red/blue flashing.  The unit paired right away when I did this.  Thanks!

  • Verizon Customer Service and Samsung Galaxy S III

    A little over 3 weeks ago I purchased a Samsung Galaxy III phone from Verizon.
    The exact store is:
    224 North Weber Road,
    Bolingbrook, IL 60440
    (630) 226-4660
    When I purchased the phone the person who sold me the phone told me that I had 30 days, If I was not completely satisfied with the phone I could return it and get my money back.  However, he assured me that I would LOVE my new phone.
    I had just come off using a Blackberry for 4 years with no problems AT ALL!  I loved that phone, but I thought it would be nice to get up to the 21st century phone standards and get a touch screen phone.  Well, I went for the best…… or so I thought.
    As soon as I got my new phone in the car, I started using the speaker phone hands free.  The speakerphone began to cut in and out and the person, my husband whom I most speak with could not understand what I was saying.  I used the speakerphone on my Blackberry without issue.  I did not think much of it because I was so happy to have my new phone.  I thought maybe I was just in a bad area etc… Well the issue persisted also when I called my bank, my husband’s mother, my mother and it did not matter where I was the speaker phone did not work properly.  Then my phone started to drop calls.  Again, I thought it may have been the area, but it started happening a lot.  So now I was really beginning to wonder.  Having though I was still under the 30 DAY warranty, I gave it a few more days.  I began having to take out the battery to reset the unit because apps where disappearing and when I went to re-install them the unit indicated that app was already on my phone and wanted to know if I would like to uninstall the app.  I had to once again take out the battery and have the unit restart.  Well, I could not take it anymore.  With all of the things going wrong only a couple of weeks after purchase, I had to go into the store and see what they could do for me.  I went in and explained my situation to the manger who was greeting people at the door, I think her name was Katie or something like that.  She put me in line on her IPad just like everyone else for someone to assist me.  I was assigned to a very pleasant associate who took the battery out of my phone and said try this to see if this works for you.  I, not knowing very much about the technology said ok and walked out of the store.  Well it kept on getting worse.  I went back to the store on Sunday, September 30th 2012 asking for my money back or a new replacement for the phone.   They would not assist me. I started with a regular associate and went up the chain finally getting Katie (the store manager) who repeated everything that everyone else said.  So, obviously, she has no managerial skills at all.   She stated that they would have to totally reset my phone to see if some apps where conflicting etc.  Isn’t that what you purchase a Smartphone for??? To put apps on it and calendars etc.  I just downloaded a calendar and Xfinity because that is what I have my e-mail on.  I don’t’ think that was the issue, but you could not tell Katie anything. 
    I wanted a new phone replacement or money back as I spent $300.00 dollars on this phone.  She would not have it.  She said we have to go through the proper trouble shooting because I was out of the 14 day return policy!!!!.   OMGsh 14 days????  I was told 30!  Had I known this, I would have gotten my money back the first time I took the phone in for the issues I was having.  At that time, I was still under the 14 day policy!  I proceeded to express my opinion to everyone in the store stating “Don’t buy a Samsung Galaxy III” They are pieces of **bleep**. Well, needless to say Katie did not like that and she set my phone down in front of me and said, if I am going to swear, she is not going to help me.  Ok, then I re-worded my statement to tell everyone in the store “Don’t buy a Samsung Galaxy III they are pieces of garbage”  I cleaned it up a little, but still got my point across.  I also told her that I would blog about it and send a letter to the corporate office of both Samsung and Verizon.  I don’t think that she believed me, but here I am taking my time for this stuff.  Time I don’t have much of, but I feel very strongly about this situation.  I was lied to and Katie had the nerve to tell me that if I get a replacement phone from them, it would be a refurbished unit even though I just purchased the unit 3 weeks earlier.  THAT is unacceptable by any standards!!! 
    Needless to say I left the store totally dissatisfied with Verizon’s customer service and the Samsung Galaxy III phone.  I have not put any unusual apps on my phone nor have I downloaded a new calendar to my phone and I am still having the same issues with dropped calls and bad speaker phone.  I will not put any time into this phone for them to tell me they need to reset the whole darn thing again!  I am not going to bother going back to that Verizon store, because I know that they will not lift a finger to do anything about it.
    My husband wants an IPhone 5.  We will not be purchasing this from Verizon and I will probably eat the cancellation fee and go through AT&T so that my husband can get his IPhone.  I will never purchase another thing from Verizon, this is not the first time that that they have let me down.
    I hope that this letter, blog, facebook, YouTube note will open some eyes with regard to Verizon customer service and the Samsung Galaxy III phone.  I don’t know if it will, but with social media as it is, I hope it DOES!
    Thanks for nothing Verizon!!!
    Sincerely

  • Sharing Calendars between iPhone and Samsung Galaxy

    Hi All - do any of you tech savy people know how I can share my iPhone or Mac calendar with my Samsung Galaxy husband?
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated !!! thanks

    If you can get the content from the tablet into iTunes, it can then be synced to the iDevice.
    iTunes does not sync with any Android device, it would be up to you to get that content onto the computer and into iTunes.

  • Wrk54g and Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1

    When I try to connect the galaxy to the wireless network, the tablet shuts down (to the start page, unlock page) when it is searching for the ip address for the network.  The firmware is 1.55.02. Cannot get upgrade as not available from Cisco. Anyone had this problem and found solution? Have disconnected all other devices from the network in case there is some interference problem.

    Does the problem is only with the Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1 or it happens with the other wireless devices? You can try out the following steps:
    # Open up the browser and on the address bar type 192.168.1.1 that will open up the Router setup page…
    # Then Click on wireless Tab and select you can make Standard Channel to 6, 9, 11... Click Save Settings...
    # Then click on Advanced Wireless Settings, change Beacon Interval to 75, Fragmentation Threshold to 2306, and RTS Threshold to 2307...
    Try out these settings once and then check the connectivity….

    Hi skippy2012trev,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you updated your Apple Id and password but now you are being prompted for the old information in iCloud. You are on the right track by changing the Apple ID back to the previous email address temporarily so that you can sign out. You should not need to verify the email address. After you edit the Apple ID back to the old email address and then sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, edit the Apple ID back to the address you would currently like to use. There is no need to change the password again, only the email address, unless you prefer to update the password again.
    If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support
    Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
    Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    Tap Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
    Scroll down and tap Sign Out, then tap Sign Out to confirm. If you're using iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
    Tap Keep on My [Device] or Delete from My [Device]. In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
    Cheers,
    Joe

Even if people say one or the other is "better" its more about what works better for you

  • I need opinions. I currently on dilemma on buying iPod Touch 4 or Samsung Galaxy Tab. Comparing these two, which one is better? Why? Tq.

    Well, I want to buy a new gadget for myself. But I currently don't know which one to choose yet. Both iPod Touch 4 and Samsung Galaxy Tab are great inventions! But i can't afford to buy both of them. So i'm asking all of you, any ideas or opinions on these two gadget? Which one is better and why? What do iPod 4 have that Samsung Tab don't have and vice versa. Thank you so much if you replying this.

    I'm having the same issues you are having on my S3.  I was on the phone with tech support (Verizon) last Friday for about an hour.  I had to get a bit nasty with the tech when he attempted to blame Samsung for this (Samsung didn't release that update without Verizon's OK- and have you noticed Verizon has added their logo to the startup now?).
    My data usage has gone up, battery draining much faster (and I have an extended battery!) and I had to re-load some of my widgets on the phone (including the My Verizon widget).  The tech had me start the phone in Safe Mode (holding down the power, volume rocker and Home button at the same time until the Samsung logon screen shows then let go of the power button while continuing to hold the other two buttons until the phone logs on completely).
    Whatever he did remotely seemed to make the phone act better yet he decided I need the update 'reflashed' to the phone.  First he credited my account $30 to take care of any possible data overages.  He then contacted my local Best Buy store to see if they could 'reflash' (upload the update again) the phone. 
    I went to Best Buy and had it done the next day.  I think the phone was better before the 'reflash'!  The tech gave me his personal Verizon cell number so I will be calling him back today.
    An update for the update is coming yet the release date hasn't been confirmed.  The tech said my account will be monitored for any overages in which I will received credits to cover it.
    Good luck, Ginger- and I agree with you: if this doesn't get fixed I will move my business to T-Mobile!
