Bluetooth Help With Phonebook
 

I just got the Bluetooth option in my new 2005. It works great for incoming calls but I cant get it to do outbound or load the phonebook. It gets stuck at loading phonebook. I have a Sony T68i which is on the compatibility chart. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

maybe it has to do with whether or not the phonebook is in your SIM or on the phone itself??

I have a SE616 for some reason it takes a VERY long time to load the phone book. Once it does it the first time it only takes a few seconds after that. It took well over an hour to do my phone. Drive around with it for a while or leave it in the garage with the key on (engine off)...

I've had a problem recently where I update a phone number or add a number to the phone, transfer it to the SIM, but it doesn't get added/changed in the car's memory. Any ideas? I'd simply delete the phones and start over if it didn't take friggin' forever with the SE phones.

Hmm, no luck with either.

1. "maybe it has to do with whether or not the phonebook is in your SIM or on the phone itself??"

> Which do you want? I tried both.

2. "for some reason it takes a VERY long time to load the phone book. Once it does it the first time it only takes a few seconds after that."

> I let it sit at the loading phone book for atleast an hour. I do have over 100 names in my phonebook each with more then 1 number though. I'll have to try longer, maybe overnight ;)

- Do you know if it confuses the car if I have 2 or 3 numbers under the same name? Like Cell Home and Work? If this phone should work thats the only thing I can think of, maybe you can only have 1 number per name?

We'll i found out what my problem is. I am running firmware version R3A and need R8A. Now to figure out how to upgrade the firmware without sending it to Sony.
