Xperia M4 Dual auto SIM selection for hands-free calls

When using my hands-free kit in my car to dial a number, I have to select which SIM I want to use from the phone screen, which is dangerous and not really hands-free. How could I configure the phone so it dials from the same SIM when I'm using a Bluetooth hands-free kit ? I had this on my previous two dual-SIM phones that were not Sony... Thanks for helping.

I exact problem - you can not choose which SIM card to use to make calls, especially when I'm driving. I need to unlock my phone, select SIM card to make the call ... Is there any job application that can make the choice of default SIM card?

  • HT204368 Using iPhone 4S in car for hands-free calling

    I am having real trouble using my iPhone 4 S to make hands-free calls from the car. The combined earpiece and microphone I have always used without problem on my Nokia keeps getting silly results with Siri! 
    I just want to be able to make and receive calls using my Contacts List, and get Siri to recognise my voice when I ask for someone on the Contact list!
    If I say I want to speak to 'Stephen Farley' it will come back with 'I don't see Stephen Bali in your contact list'!
    Maybe I am doing something wrong?!
    Also, will the 'voice regonition' work if Siri isn't working because it's out of contact with the internet?
    I just need a simple connnection to my Contact List, without all the fancy options of Siri  - which are just a pain!
    Any help gratefully received!

    I have one of those stereos bought from Ebay, no badge, no name, and with multitude of functions,and a mic attached to my visor. Once it is paired with Iphone, all my music and calls go through the car stereo.
    for applications that do not direct Audio through BT such as CoPilot (GPS navigation) I connect the Iphone through headset socket and into the stereo AUX input and works great (all sounds, voice,calls) go through it. One disadvantage of this method is that I can't listen to the radio. Well you cannot have it all. Or perhaps there is a Radio application where it plays in the background while I still use my GPS application.

    What is the best way to connect the latest iphone to a 2010 mini Cooper S for hands free operation?

    i use an old G4 Mac Mini running 10.5 Leopard, and it's on 24/7

  • 3G iphone cannot support video call & bluetooth only can for hand free

    Hai... So suprise that the 3G iphone was below expectation. What a disappointment. They cannot even support 3G Video call and worst of all the blue tooth can only be used for hand free.
    The software engineer should look at way to develop a more advance software and use.
    Problem encounter:
    1. We cannot copy and paste our text.
    2. Cannot scroll back to the last function we can only press the short cut key to get back to the main page and start all over again.
    3. 3G phone that cannot make 3G call
    4. Bluetooth function can only use to connect to hand free not able to send photo, music and etc...
    5. Cannot forward SMS
    Here is some of the pointer. I have not fully explore the hp. totally disappointed and thing there is more. Hopefully more software update will solve this problems.

    Hi everyone!
    Just a quick update here, but about two days since my original post, I've made a visit to the AT&T store with my dad, even though AT&T has nothing to do with the phone itself.  Then the AT&T service employee told us that a hard reset should do the trick.  Then before I did a full backup and restoration of my iPhone software, my dad called AT&T with no luck.  He also attempted to call Apple, but without success, b/c the phone was out of warranty.
    So, as a last resort option, I performed a backup and did a full reset of the iPhone using iTunes to restore the phone back to where it was since the last iOS update, and the last iCloud backup.  The result:  it was worth the option because the whole phone's WiFi and Bluetooth got malfunctioned sometime few days ago and after that iOS 6.1.3 restoration, I got both the WiFi and the Bluetooth functions working properly! 
    The next time any iPhone user comes up with this same situation as mine in the earlier post, don't try visiting the AT&T store b/c they won't help with anything with the phones themselves, and backup and restore the whole iPhone as a last resort when every easy solution fails.

  • Do I have to turn on cellular data to make hands-free calls

    Do I have to turn on cellular data to make hands-free calls on the iPhone 6?  If so, REALLY, APPLE????  I have never had a smart phone and ALL of my low-tech phones allowed me to make hands-free calls and I did not have to use data (which is NOT free) to do it.  I know that I can ask Siri to make calls for me but how do I make hands-free calls when my data is turned off?

    Siri does indeed require internet access to function, so yes, you would need to have cellular data turned on

  • How do I make a hands free call with the iphone 4s?

    How do I make a hands free call with the iphone 4s?  I have a bluetooth car device and when I try to talk through it (as I did with my old phone) to call someone it does not work.  so far only hte last person called is redialed.

    That is a carrier-based service. So first you have to make sure your service contract includes that feature.
    It usually also includes Call Hold. So you call the first party, put them on hold, call the second, then reactivate the first. But only if your carrier allows you to.

  • Xperia z3+ dual second sim problem

    Hey guys, I just purchased a Xperia Z3+ dual and the first time I turned it on with both sim cards it was working fine.  Then for some reason the second sim stopped working on the 2G gsm network. I factory restored the phone and it worked again. The thing is that yesterday as soon as I activated the Find my xperia service the 2nd sim stopped working again. This is very annoying and renders my Z3 useless. Anyone have an idea as to what is causing this? Thanks, Kiko

    Does it work while on safe mode?

  • Muffled speaker for hands free and music

    I'm having problems with my iPhone 4S speakers. Music sounds muffled and my hands free function can't be heard. Callers complain they can't hear me. Has anyone else experienced this?

    Yes the iPhone4 is listed for my model as equiped.  It does not have all the functionality such as uploading contacts but the hands free should work.  My Subaru service depart verified there was no software update listed for my navigation system for using the iPhone4.  A quick google of iPhone and bluetooth returns a significant number of message threads.  That includes a thread on the Apple forums that is now up to 44 pages.  It is not an isolated issue with just Subaru. 
    I made an appointment at an Apple store today and after describing the problem they replaced the phone a second time.  So far during one phone call there were no issues.  I have yet to restore a backup so I don't have any contacts or applications on it yet.  I will try it for about a while to see if the problem occurs again.  If there are no issues I might try loading stuff back on it progressively to determine if it might be a software issue.  I shouldn't be dealing with this mess.  It is a serious pain in the *** and I have better things to do with my time.  If I knew before hand I have this kind of problem I wouldn't be using a mobile phone with an apple on it.

  • My new birthday present (i-phone 4s) does not sync with my 2011 CRV navigation..is there any way the service tech at Honda can set this up for hands free usage?  It is very frustrating to not be able to use this phone like my cheaper old phone.

    My new birthday present of an i-phone 4s, can not be synced with the navigation of my 2011 Honda CRV.  Can anyone give us hints on what to do, as the Honda dealership can not enable the phone to work with hands free.  Help, this is very frustrating as the old cheap phone,worked perfect.  Apple did not make this a user friendly product for cars.

    Start by reading the User's Guide which will provide details for how to pair the device with other bluetooth devices.  This may also require reading the Owner's Manual for the vehicle to find out how to put it into pairing mode.

  • IPhone G3 for Hands Free Communications in Car

    Is the new iphone G3 designed to work with a car kit that will broadcast cell phone conversations over the car speakers...like the Parrot system? Of course, one would desire to have ONLY verbal communications (no key strokes) required using the combination of the iPhone and the car kit (e.g. Parrot system) which would recognize iPhone settings to call a person's phone number. This feature would not require a head set unless desired. Such would be 100% hands free as required by CA starting on July 1st.
    Based on my previous research on the subject with the original iphone model there were six protocol profiles that were required and not available on iphone at that time. They are:
    GAP = Generic Access Profile
    SDP = Service Digital Profile
    OPP = Object Push Profile
    HSP = Head Seat Profile
    HFP = Hands Free Profile
    Whether this protocol info is accurate or not I do not know, but at that time Parrot confirmed that the original iphone will not work with their system. However,if I remember correctly, they may not have agreed with the list of protocols required which were obtained from Pioneer. Pioneer makes a car radio model with blue tooth, which also transmits the conversation onto the car speakers.
    Thanks for any thoughts on this subject.

    Hey Shane!
    You could always try going to Toyota and see if there is a firmware upgrade available for your car.  Even though your car is new, there are always firmware releases available.
    New Phones don't always work with older firmwares in new Car Stereos.  With Technology changing everyday you want to make sure your always update on all devices involded.

  • MD Now Requires Hands-Free Calling--Best Bluetooth Speaker Phone for iP4

    It's a good thing that, as of today, Maryland requires hands-free phone usage in vehicles, but I am in a rental car at the moment (possibly because of someone else's irresponsible cell phone usage--and I don't know how long), so I am looking for a portable bluetooth hands-free speaker phone that actually works with my iPhone 4 with IOS 4.1. I have had many people tell me lately that I sound terrible when calling from my car using my Parrot Mki9200.
    So, what works best now with the iPhone 4 with IOS 4.1 that I can use in my rental and possibly later in my real car.
    Thanks in advance for any useful information,
    Lambanlaa

    Thanks, Randy, but I don't want that to be a part of the equation of a traffic violation, if I should have one. Will you hold the phone up to your ear now that the law is in effect? If not, what car solution do you use with your iPhone 4?

  • Bluetooth connectibility for hands-free headset

    With the introduction of iOS 4.3, is it possible to connect a bluetooth headset with either the iPad1 or iPad2?

    The following page that list the BT profiles has not been revised. The Users Guide for iOS 4.3/iPad 2 reference that article. However, you can now tether an iPad (w/iOS 4.3) to a iPhone to get an internet connection (if you have the tethering plan for the phone) and that is not discussed in the article.
    BT article:

    Tethering:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3574
    Some users have reported that they have gotten a BT headset to pair with an iPad. Most headsets use the Hands Free Profile which the iPad does not support. You need one with the A2DP profile.

  • Curve 8330 SIM Card for Internatio​nal Calls How to?!

    I have Verizon, who tells me my phone only works in US -- however, I have seen posts that seem to imply you can purchase/change a SIM card so the phone will work overseas.  If possible, how does this work, exactly? What do I ask to have have turned off/on; where do I purchase SIM card? How do I install it? What features should I look for? Is this at all possible? Can someone give me step by step help (for the technically deeply challenged) on how to make my US only phone intrernational (I need the UK and Egypt ... but I'll settle for UK only). 
    My sonic screwdriver seems not to be up to the trick! Thanks in advance.

    HI and Welcome to the Forums!
    According to the specifications page:
    http://na.blackberry.com/eng/devices/blackberrycur​ve8300/curve_specifications.jsp
    the 8330 has a CDMA only radio...so it will only work on networks that use that exact radio encoding and frequency. You'd have to check with the carriers in your destination countries to see if they have such service (frankly, I doubt it...). If by chance they do have, then VZW would be able to sell you an international roaming service for your BB, requiring no change to the SIM. Changing the SIM would change the carrier to which your BB is tied -- which would require VZW to provide you with the unlock code so that you could first unlock your BB from VZW, in which case a SIM from a different carrier could then work. But, frankly, I think that you won't have any luck given that your BB is CDMA only.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Hands free Siri - Did Apple really make this mistake?

    So you want to make a phone call using Siri hands free in iOS8.  You tell it who to call and it initiates the call, but guess what?  The speakerphone is not activated.  So much for hands free calling.

    koco82 wrote:
    This is just the reason thy I got to this forum. I wanted to make a suggestion:
    It isn't really hands-free if I, after telling Siri to place a call, need to take the phone in my hand, or need to have headphones on while it is also connected to power supply.
    It would be nice if Siri would understand a command like "Hey Siri! Call my girlfriend on speaker!".
    So when the iPhone is connected to power supply and the "Hey Siri" function is enabled, the priority order (at least for outgoing calls) should automatically be speaker, bluetooth, headphones, phone (most hands-free to least hands-free).
    The infrared sensor could be used to switch automatically from speaker to phone when the device is picked up and put to the ear.
    Make the suggestion to Apple feedback
    Cheers
