Z10 connected to car via Bluetooth handsfree link not providing song information after 10.2.1 update.

I've been using a Z10 for about 6 months and I connect the phone to my car (a 2012 Honda Civic) via the Bluetooth handsfree link to receive phone calls and to play songs that are stored on my phone's SD card. When I play a song, the song title, album and artist information is displayed on my car's LCD screen. However, after updating to 10.2.1 this morning, the song information doesn't seem to be sent to the car. No matter what song I play, the car screen says "none" for the title, album and artist. I can still "scroll" though my songs from the car's stereo console using the forward and backward buttons, but alas, no song information is shown. I've rebooted my phone several times, deleted the Bluetooth connections on my phone and in the car and then reconnected, but no dice. I must admit that I'm really annoyed about this. This is pretty basic stuff. Does anyone else have a similar experience?

Hmmm...very strange. In the worst of the worst cases, the reload process I used was:
Fully document configuration
On Device WIPE
AutoLoader Reload
On Device WIPE
Reload all configurations (not a restore from backup)
Reload all media from PC
Launch media app and wait for it to full scan for media
Pair with vehicle and see it it now works
Tedious I know, but sometimes required especially with emerging technologies.

  • My iphone 6 connects to the car via bluetooth, the music works good, but the phone calles does not work.  It looks like it is working but doesn't.  I have tried in my Hyundai and a Dodge rent car and get the same results.  I updated the last 8.0.2.

    My iphone 6 connects to the car via bluetooth, the music works good, but the phone calls does not work.  It looks like it is working but doesn't.  I have tried in my Hyundai Sonata and a Dodge Dart rent car and get the same results.  I updated the last 8.0.2.  It worked the first day i had the phone, and then i updated to Ios 8.0.2 and it quit working.
    Now when i get in the car, it acts like it is connected and makes the same call it was on after syncing to bluetooth, but it really isn't on a call.  This is happening on both cars.
    Does anyone know if this is the phone and i need to take it to Apple or if there is an issue that Apple is working on getting a fix for?
    My son in law has the exact same phone as me, we both got the on 10/6, he had a Dodge Dart and his is working via bluetooth.
    Someone HELP please, as i consider this a safety issue by not having my calls go to bluetooth.

    We had the same problem, but figure out the solution.
    You MUST have at least 1 song added to your ITUNE!  After you add a free song, then everything else should work as normal!
    Hope this helps!

  • My I phone 5 will no longer connect to my car via Bluetooth since the 8.1 update?

    SInce the 8.1 update my phone will not connect to my Ford car via Bluetooth?

    Use this article: iOS: Troubleshooting Bluetooth connections - Apple Support
    Most likely your Ford needs a Bluetooth firmware update.

    My ipad doesnot connect with Xperia via bluetooth, My ipad doesnot connect with Xperia via bluetooth

    You cannot link to another smartphone via Bluetooth from your iPad except perhaps to use the Xperia's personal hotspot (WiFi is supported, but I'm not sure about Bluetooth). If you wish to transfer files or data, that's not possible.
    Regards.

    Hi Tomiwa,
    You cannot print from the iPad to that printer. AirPrint and Bluetooth are completely different.
    There may be apps you can buy that will enable using that printer, but that is not an ideal solution.
    That particular printer has had many bad reviews, and is unreasonably expensive for its features. Considering that you just bought the printer, as well as its lack of AirPrint, I suggest you return it and buy a printer that supports AirPrint.

    Re: iPad won't connect to iMac via bluetooth 
    Apr 29, 2012 3:35 PM (in response to mccass)
    I was successful in connecting my iPad and 27" iMac via bluetooth for the purpose of internet sharing, so it can be done. I was able to use my iMac's free wifi connection (which the iPad couldn't pick up, as I don't want to stand by the window) to get internet on the iPad. I forget how, unfortunately, which is why I'm back in the forums - my connection went down!
    *Edit: Foolish me. My iMac shows up under "Devices" on the iPad Bluetooth pane in General Settings. All I had to do was tap it to revive the connection (since I paired the devices the first time I set up the connection). iPad is now getting internet off iMac again :-)

  • Why is it when i try connecting my iphone via bluetooth it says my computer is not supported?

    Why is it when i try connecting my iphone via bluetooth it says my computer is not supported?

    Because File Transfer, buy Bluetooth, has never been supported on any iPhone. Your computer and iPhone will only pair, by Bluetooth, if you're trying to Tether. If you're not trying to Tether, you can quit tring, as your phone won't pair.

  • Connecting 2 iphones via bluetooth

    Does anybody know how to connect to iphones via bluetooth?

    Bluetooth on the iPhone is for headset pairing only.
    The protocols for file transfer/etc are not present.

    Unfortunately, you can't.  The iphone does not have the protocol for Bluetooth file sharing and so forth, between one iphone and another.

  • Why does my iPhone play muted music in the background when I connect to my car via Bluetooth? This put a drain on the phone battery

    My iPhone 4s plays muted music in the background when connected via Bluetooth to my 2009 Ford Focus. This puts a heavy drain on the phone battery. I would appreciate any ideas to prevent this happening.

    It doesn't really matter whether I am talking to Apple or not (and I'm sure they monitor these comments), I want everyone to know how bad this new iphone 4s is, and all of it's problems.
    Apple have already launched an upgrade to the software - it obviously did not help, as many around the world would concur.
    As far as being patient and waiting for another "update in the works" is concerned, it is just not satisfactory. This is not a cheap phone, and those who are experiencing these problems, should not have to be paying a substantial amount of money, for a very smart phone, that obviously, has some serious problems.

  • Lumia 820 cannot connect to PC via Bluetooth

    Hi there. I have recently bought a new Lumia 820, which is a great phone, except that I cannot connect the Lumia to my PC (win 7) via Bluetooth. I have been using phones with bluetooth for a long time, so this is not my first time. I can see my pc in the list, but when i click "connect", the phone is connected to the pc for like one second and then the connection breaks up. Transfering a single file by clicking "send" and then "bluetooth" is no problem, but the connecting directly between the pc and the phone via bluetooth instead of usb cable is no success. Can anybody help me out here please? Thank you!
    Solved!

    A continuous data connection is not supported. In all fairness it's kind of like trying to fill a tank using a thimble.

  • Is it possible to connect my Ipad2 via bluetooth to my iMac

    I'd like to sync my new iPad2 via bluetooth to my Quadcore i7 iMac, instead off using the thin white USB-cable that comes with the iPad2. Syncing works fine over the cable, but it would be easy the use a wireless connection to sync iPad2 via iTunes on the iMac. Any suggestions? I've heard a rumor that iOS5 would support such wireless link...

    Transferring such data via bluetooth - music, videos, and 3rd party apps would not be nice. Via w-fi would be nice which will be supported with iOS 5.
    http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html
    Wirelessly sync your iOS device to your Mac or PC over a shared Wi-Fi connection. Every time you connect your iOS device to a power source (say, overnight for charging), it automatically syncs and backs up any new content to iTunes. So you always have your movies, TV shows, home videos, and photo albums everywhere you want them.

  • Unable to connect to PC via Bluetooth

    I read several threads, but couldn't find an appropriate answer. I am doing the following to try to connect iPhone 4 to my laptop:
    1. On iPhone: turn BT on.
    2. On PC: Add new BT device. The laptop finds the iPhone.
    3. To pair the devices, I am asked to confirm a security code on both laptop and iPhone. Once confirmed on both devices, a message displays saying that they're paired.
    4. On the iPhone, however, the little status indicator just keeps spinning; on the laptop, I get a message saying that it could not connect to the remote device.
    Is the iPhone only capable of connecting to a BT headset? Is it supposed to be able to connect to a PC????

    " Is it supposed to be able to connect to a PC????"
    No.
    It can only connect to a computer for tethering ( where allowed).
    Fiel transfer via bluetooth is NOT supported.
    You can connect to telephone headsets/handsfree devices, stereo headphones/speakers, a computer for tethering purposes and some peer-to-peer apps from the app store.

  • Iphone 6 will not connect to iMac via Bluetooth

    Hi there,
    Have iMac and Macbook Air, all n Yosemite. Purchased new iPhone 6 Plus and want to use message centre on iMac. It was working excellent with iPhone 5. Will not work at all with iPhone 6. I tried manually to connect iPhone to iMac but no avail.
    I found other people complaining about no connection in car but those are both Apple devices, latest and greatest and can't connect to each other? Phone is 8.1.3 so latest. Both Macs are 10.10.2

    An iPhone will not pair via Bluetooth to a computer (Mac or Windows) except for personal hotspot and then only if your cellular plan supports it. https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-7722
    If you are attempting to use Handoff/Continuity, that does involve Bluetooth but the devices are NOT paired; Bluetooth just needs to be on and the devices in range of each other. The following may help with Handoff/Continuity issues: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5458
