hedgepig Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Guys maybe you can help on this one..... I've got my phone set up on bluetooth and it can access files but no matter what I do I cannot get the car system to receive the phonebook data like it says it should. I have a phone which I know is compatable with the system (Samsung J700) and every time I try to send the contact list to the car it says "no bluetooth device found" yet it's definitely receiving the signal from the phone as the blue icon is alight on the dash. What am I doing wrong----ahhhhhh this is soooooooo frustrating........ Everything else works just fine although sometimes the voice control commands are misinterpreted? Does anyone have any ideas for me to try please........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't tried to actually send the phone book (the iPhone can't ) but the phone book automatically shows up on the car by pressing the phone button and scrolling to contacts once the phone itself is paired Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that it should do but it doesn't and I can't figure out why not. Any suggestions will be gratefully received.............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark M.K Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I have a nokia 6500 Slide, and the phone book gets downloaded to the car without doing anything. Have you not tried connecting the phone to the car and then press phonebook on the cars screen. On mine it takes about 5 seconds and brings up the whole contact list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nipz Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 Without sounding like to much of and idiot. Can someone please explain what the iPhone 3G can and can't do? The link was great but now I'm confused! Can my iPhone 3Gs address book be fully used and scrolled through but doesn't sync? Also with the voice control does all that work ok? Not that I no the full extent of the voice controls other than the video. Thanks all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you not tried connecting the phone to the car and then press phonebook on the cars screen. On mine it takes about 5 seconds and brings up the whole contact list I haven't got phonebook on my list of options and that's why I'm confused. When you press phone what comes up on your options list? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hedgepig Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Guys, just to let you know I've sorted it out now. It transpires that the contacts have to be loaded into the phone's memory (not the sim) and then it works just fine. Thanks to all of you for your help etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Focus_ST-3 Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I just bought the new Samsung Tocco lite. All of the numbers are on the phones memory but the phonebook is not appearing in the fiestas phone menu. I have previously been using a Nokia N73 and it has worked perfectly. Does anybody have any ideas? Please help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
