| Bluetooth Phonebook Sync Issue |
|
I have been unable to get my Orange SPV Smartphone to sync with the Bluetooth in my Disco and display the phonebook entries (despite the dealer claiming to have done the required software upgrade). I can make and receive calls but no more so I assumed that it must be down to the incompatibility of the handset.
However, I picked up a loan Freelander 2 today and my phone syncs perfectly with the system in this car.
If it works in the FL2 should it work in the D3???????? TDV6 HSE Auto in Arctic Frost - Hers

are your contacts stored on SIM or Phone? as far as I've been able to ascertain with mine the D3 BT only picks up phone memory contacts with the 'phones I have tried one day we'll all know, until then just pretend we do....

The BT implementation in the D3 and RRS is simply awful for the level of vehicle brand IMHO, as they said in the film Christine: "You can't polish a turd" Cheers

Anyone know if there is a way to tell if the upgrade has been done? At least this way I can be sure the dealer has kept their word. TDV6 HSE Auto in Arctic Frost - Hers

Yes: if the phone book doesn't download to the vehicle over Bluetooth, the upgrade has not been applied. Contains sulphites

SM you need to make sure they applied the current firmware upgrade, not the previous one that was withdrawn as it apparently caused some 'issues' and shagged broke some bluetooth boxes allegedly one day we'll all know, until then just pretend we do....

It would seem that the telephone module is quite sensitive when it comes to upgrades, and that things can go wrong. Back to the dealer, methinks. Contains sulphites

I don't think the phone book is downloaded with the D3's system.
The BT system simply reads directly from the phones contact list. Phone memory not SIM memory.

Wonder if it is because my phone has an 'outlook' style contact list?
Anyone run a smartphone with windows mobile that does allow phone book access? TDV6 HSE Auto in Arctic Frost - Hers
