To the sages,
I am trying to pair with handsfree in 2006 Z4 M Coupe Nav. It will show paired on phone and I respond to request on phone to transfer phonebook to car unit. The car will show phonebook loading but it never loads. In this state calls cannot be initiated from car. I tried repairing but same issue. My prior phone, Samsung epic 4g touch paired and loaded phonebook without any problem. Anyone else with this problem or solution? My other car, 2012 Subaru STi pairs and loads phonebook without any problem.
Thanks,
Doc
Edit: I am rooted but stock ROM.
I have had no issues on my 2012 Passat with the phone book, wonder if your older car and the newer phone are using a different protocol for some reason that is causing it to misbehave.
My 2011 f-150 loaded the phone book fine.
My phone paired fine with my 2005 Audi A4 as well as my 2011 BMW 328I XDrive. My phone never prompts me to load a phonebook it just does it automatically. Maybe it's something in the settings that you're missing. However, my boy's father has a 2006 BMW X3 and he had to buy a separate piece from BMW in order for his Android phone to pair with his SUV. I think he has a Samsung Galaxy S II for T-Mobile. You might wanna call them and see if you too need this extra piece in order for the phone to work with your car.
In mini I heard it meses up so I didn't load the phone book. Although my og EVO could use the phone book.
Nice ride I used to have a e36/8 m coupe.

2011 Hyundai Sonata is a hit or miss. Phone asks me if I should allow access to phone book and I did. Incoming phonecalls show up as numbers. Outgoing sometimes as names, and sometimes as numbers. Call log mostly names.
To all-thanks for the ideas/replies. I will see if BMW can help me out. I did check a link from Google that was to check for software update and returned no update is available.
Thanks again,
Doc

Hi So i bought the x10A to get ride of my Iphone, now i love this phone but
i have issues, with bluetooth i have a kenwood deck dnx6160 when i pair,
it does not pair my phonebook, now is there away to get this to work by maybe using a diff rom or something or debranding the phone
thanks
My phonebook doesn't show up either when I pair my phone. I have a jvc unit. However, bluetooth streaming works fine but the names of the songs don't display.. it states unknown when playing. I think this is just a phone issue, not sure. Anyone else have the phonebook working?
You might need to update the blue tooth firmware. I was thinking about using the DNX6140 bluetooth firmware on my DNX6160 just to see if the damn thing will do A2DP and SMS. Since DNX6140 has all the features that I would assume the 6160 would have. If it fails, I will update to 3.80
I have a G1 and a Galaxy Tab. Both grayed out phoning options right after I hang up. I chose this unit over Pioneer AVIC-920BT just b/c of Garmin nav I should have just installed a iPad or an Android Tab with GPS
Can you sync your contacts over bluetooth to your BMW?
I am a (soon to be ex) Evo 3D owner and HTC screwed up this feature when they upgraded all their phones to Bluetooth 3.0.
I'm thinking seriously of dumping the Evo 3D but need to know if this feature works with the Galaxy S II.
As BMW owners know, you can sync your contacts to your BMW vie bluetooth and initiate phone calls from the directory on the iDrive screen. This is a lot easier than trying to mess with your phone's display while driving. However, this feature was lost with HTC's bluetooth 3.0 update.
Anyone with SGS2 and a BMW who can confirm that this works on their car?
Also, if it does work, what year is your BMW?
I have a 2010 335i and the SGS2 syncs contacts perfectly. But not the other "office" options (I think that only works with Blackberries).
Cool thanks, that gives me hope!
318 from 12/08 with Navi Professional.
I get all numbers from my contacts into my car but no address data. Very annoying cause you cannot use your navi comfortably.
With my old WM6.1 HTC Touch Pro it worked like a breeze.
I hope there will be a fix soon. Bluetooth is just crappy in the SGS2. It's got problems with pairing with my PC, too. It gets paired but sharing files via BT is impossible. The device manager shows me that drivers are missing.

SGS functioned perfectly with contacts sync on my BMW 325i 2006 iDrive, upgraded to SGS2 which wont even pair, giving an error message "pairing rejected by BMW####".
upgrading the firmware to XXKG1 didn't solve the issue, am gonna see if i can update the idrive's version and post back if resolved

Oh no, that sucks. That's the same year as my iDrive.

Perhaps it's time to upgrade your car
I re-checked on my 2010 professional navi and contacts are fully sync'ed; even addresses.
I further investigated about bluetooth and indeed android (linux in general) implementation is quite limited. Beyond the basic audio, agenda and stereo audio (which also works in the BMW), BMW Teleservices require DUN (dial up networking) which worked on my old Windows Mobile 6 device but not on the SGS2 and BMW office requires MAP (message access profile) which is not available in android.
And though A2DP streams audio to the car, there is no information on what is playing, nor cover art.
Maybe some xda developer will be so kind as to develop these profiles. I would gladly pay to have my phone fully connected to my car.
I have 2010 3 series with iDrive. Phonebook syncs flawlessly and handsfree works great. Can't get audio streaming to work though, the phone starts playback but I hear no audio. The display is telling me 'Please Wait'.
BMW Mini Cooper with Mini Boost audio system - all contacts synced properly.
It has no A2DP audio so I can't test that and it doesn't have a satnav so addresses deff do not sync.
ok... i see a lot of people here do not know what kind of iDrive system you have and hence making it hard for others to judge. i know this is old but i am running into issues with my CCC based iDrive and my JB based Samsung galaxy s2
Please post Year, make,model and type of iDrive or BT OEM equipment you might have...
2007 BMW 335i with CCC iDrive
SGS2 with 4.1.2 JB
Just an quick FYI
CCC iDrive was the first idrive that was placed on the market and believe it runs from 2006 till 2008
CIC iDrive was the second get and it runs from 2009 -2012
CIC High iDrive is the current one 2013 and on...
Have
SGSII with 4.2.2 Slimbean and dorimanx 9.34
X3 CIC I-drive 2011
Contacts with adresses and pictures work fine also SMS and callhistory
Audiostreaming working but no audioinformation transmitted ( Issue of ROM/Kernel )
Hello, I just bought a Xperia S and I did not reach in connection it to my Built-in bluetooth system (a parrot built-in kit in a Citroen). The pjone can see the system but I'm not able to make the system pairing.
I already had difficulties in the past with an X10 but it was linked to Android 1.6 and with my Samsung Galaxy S2 under Cyanogen7. I have no issue to conenct with Nokia E6, iPhone 4 or Android 2.3.X smartphones (Samsung Galaxy S2, Samsung Galaxy S, HTC Desire,...).
I think that it could come from the BT stack used by Sony or from their Android adaptation and I don't think I would be able to pair the system till an update could be released or perhaps with ICS.
Does somebody has the same difficulty or a solution ?
Best regards
Try to reset the bluetooth in your car.

I had the same issue with my bluetooth IO player.First time when I added it after that it would not connect. Turned bluetooth off and on and automatically connected. Might be worth restarting your phone. If the phone can add it then it should be able to connect to it.
Hello, I do,'t know where to reset my car BT as it is a built-in. One solution could be to remove the fuse....
It is not a question of connexion as I'm not able to pair the BT device and the Xperia.
I have no issue with all the other phones !!!
I have a 2009 Ford Mondeo and my Xperia S paired with the integrated bluetooth unit without any issues. Can browse phone book and call log without any issues and obviously make/receive calls.
Hi Guys,
Im having a real bluetooth issue with my SXS and Merc...I can connect and pair fine, however randomly the phone keeps disconnecting.. ive had this working fine with a Iphone4s and lumia 800 so i dont think its the MB side of things...can anyone shed some light on this?
Hey all
I have a 2011 Nissan XTrail which has a fairly all singing & dancing entertainment system. The SGS3 connects and works fine as a phone over bluetooth but I cannot get the phone to connect for audio.
If I look at the settings on the phone it shows the car connected to phone/handset but if I check the audio box it waits a few seconds and then unchecks itself.
No message, no clues.
Has anyone else seen this or have any thoughts on how to resolve it?

You probably figured this bout by now, but the 2013's have A2DP, but most of the 2012's don't, they just support the hands free protocol. Super annoying, as I am looking at getting a 2012 right now because of the incentives.
Has anyone had a problem with connecting the 920 to a car kit?
I've got a Vauxhall (GM) Insignia with the built in car kit. The 920 will connect to the car and the phone book and call lists will sync, however, when I try to make a call I get a message on the screen saying "Dialing Failed". I can make calls from the phone and they will go through the BT car kit. Same if I receive a call I can use the buttons on the steeringwheel to answer the call.
I did have a HTC HD2 with Winphone 7.5 and that worked flawlessly with the car kit, but this isn't so happy. Anyone got any suggestions?
As an aside, how do you change the name of the Phone so it doesn't just appear as "Windows Phone"?
Thanks

Use the Windows Phone App in Win8 to change the name. Maybe uss the Market (on a desktop browser, log in) to change the name - forgot if that's an option.
As far as cars go, every bluetooth phone I've had has been hit or miss - even the iPhone 4 I had worked, didn't work, then worked again at various versions of iOS on my Nissan.
I have a GM (Traverse) and it seems to like both my HTC Titan 7.5 and my Lumia 920 - the bluetooth stack in WP8 is different than the one used in WP7.5, apparently that's causing you issues.
Can you initiate voice calling from the steering wheel hands free? I can do that in my GM but not in my Nissan - if you can then you don't need the address book to sync.

Name: Yeah, worked that one out after I posted the message, thanks anyway
No, using the voice control doesn't work, the Dialing Failed message. Lets hope the first update may help
I can't even connect to the BT Kit in my Ford Focus. When I hit connect, the car doesn't show the PIN to connect as it should. The car kit works with HTC One X and iPhone 4s as expected. Read somewhere, that some BT protocols are missing in WP8. Rumours say, that this might get fixed with the next bigger update for WP in Q1 13. Let's hope it.

Had the same issue with my 2012 Ford Ranger, eventually got it working by doing the following:
When you pair your Lumia with your car, enter any PIN on your Lumia even if your car doesnt give you a pin. Once you enter a PIN on your Lumia and hit enter your car should provide you with the correct PIN to enter, then just enter the provided PIN and it should work.
