Bluetooth with iPhone 3G

[matth]

Hi,

After a bit of help, I've got an iPhone and have managed to pair it ok, but when you go to connect on the phone, it will connect for a short time and then displays not connected, that as far as I can get with it, the iPhone is running the latest software 3.0.

Thanks in advance

There are problems with IPhones on certain versions of the Bluetooth Module in the car. My car is a 2003 however and it works fine... It maybe worth doing a quick search as there are many Iphone BT related topics.

Mine however started off temperamental. All i did was deleted the old pairings with my old phone (by holding the BT button down untill you hear beeps). After this i re-paired and it worked perfectly!

Good luck

BT Button?

the bluetooth pairing button.

Also, do you have to tell your Iphone to "trust" it somewhere, as a second level after pairing?

I've just been out to the car and tested it again, it was already connected, the phone book has all come across and made a call fine! How strange is that, but all seem to be working at the moment so fingers crossed it won't give any ag.

Mine is a 2006 06 plate car with BT and sat nav. I cant seem to connect it. Do u think its a problwm with ULF or does it need updating. The stealers cant work out and all they say is please see our recommended phone list.

iPhone 3G is on the list, this bluetooth thing seems to be a real bug bare!

I'm sure I read some where on here that its not an upgradalbe part, well software wise anyway.

You can replace the module for a newer one, but a few with older ones say it works anyway.

have you removed all devices from the car, there's a guide on here somewhere but it's not obvious.
