I don't know if it is just the same problem as Vauxhall Zafira w/ CD70, but I have a
Opel Vectra 2006 w/ CD70 and connection seems to work fine first but disconnects
after some seconds. I worked out that the problem does not exist just after a factory
reset. Then, the connection is working until I do the very first google contact sync
- even with an empty contact list (see
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2582#c82).

I don't know if this information will provide any help to the developer but I have
changed the file /etc/bluez/audio.conf in order to include the option "Master=False"
on the android device.
In this way the connection and sincronization is always done correctly, otherwise the
car doesn't mute the radio.
Despite of this change I can NOT hear the phone through the car speakers.
My car is a Peugeot 407 from 2007 (already on the list) and the phone is a HTC Magic
(Vodafone)

I can provide a logcat of what happens if developer wishes.  I have the 2005 BMW X3 
(and a 2006 BMW X5) - the phone pairs and connects with the cars, but as soon as 
the "phonebook loading" which is initiated by the car starts, it kills the gprs 
radio/process on the phone and then kills phone process (both actions seen in the 
logcat) - then bluetooth disconnects.  It will cycle like this a few times and then 
updates the secure table found in 
the '/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db' with a value 
= '0' for my car device.

One aspect that we found to be important was the country where you bought the car -
some car manufacturers use different suppliers for their radio systems in different
countries, and we've seen some situations where bugs only appear when communicating
with the EU versions of a car, but not with the US versions that we could get our
hands on.

Also, somewhat obviously, any specific options you might have in the car related to
the audio system (navigation, in-dash CD changer, video system) might also be
relevant, so details about those would also help us build a precise list of what
specific cars have issues.

Thanks for your patience and cooperation.

The 2008 Nissan Altima Coupe mentioned in 2647#16 was purchased in the US with the
Technology Package, that is: factory installed in-dash navigation system, Bose stereo
system and Bluetooth.  I do not know how this compares to non-tech package Altimas.

Original 2647 #15
2007 Altima Sedan - US assembly - Connection pkg.(Bose) no-nav.
2007 350Z - Japan assembly - Bose - no-nav.
Both worked pre 1.5

Re: #35 Were both those cars purchased in the US?

Mine is a 2007 Infiniti G35X with nav bought in the US.

mine is a 2004 Toyota Prius, purchased in the US, with Navigation.

2008 Infiniti g37 

Regarding #35, yes both cars are US market

2005 BMW X3 and 2005 BMW X5 both purchased in US market.

us market nissan sentra 2007 here. same problem occur.

audio willnot route through car when making a  call or receiving.

THE ONLY TIME THE CAR WILL CONNECT IS IF YOU ARE ON THE PHONE AND THEN 
START THE CAR

Hi the 2647#22 R Peugeot 407 2007 on the list is a UK market Peugeot 407sw sport 136 
HDI with the standard bluetooth built into the stereo for that model, thanks.

Hi, glad to see that things are being investigated, for your info re 3681#3    Ford
Galaxy, this is a UK Model, 1.8Tdi Ghia, the bluetooth is built into the On Board
Sony Car Entertainment System.

My 2582#82 (maybe same as 2582#88) ist a German Opel Vectra 2007 with CD70 integrated
bluetooth handsfree from factory. It has also got a plugin adapter for a mobile phone
between the two front seats.

My Ford Focus, which I bought in April this year (new), came with a Blaupunkt
TravelPilot FX (5" display version) multi-media centre installed. The only problem I
could find is that the names of the contacts do not show up. Calling and being called
is possible.

hey i looked at the list and my car is not on here is what it is.
2006 Nissan Maxima

My Peugeot 308 is a 2007 UK model, with factory stereo and BT unit. Only used a 1.5 handset (HTC 
Magic) which has never worked with the handsfree kit.

Toyota Yaris Sol S 2009, bought in Germany: the built-in handsfree can only receive
contacts via OPP (Object Push Profile) Ver. 1.1, according to the car manual.

UK version of Sony MEX-BT2700, Problems are much reduced when WiFi is disabled. 98%
of the time audio wont connect if WiFi is enabled. Is almost flawless without WiFi on.

Until google start to take the problem seriously i doubt it...here a quick fix,but
you need to be able to pair once properly,soon its connected click on the new profile
the phone just created and go under option then deactivate media.It will only work if
you manage to connect once,at least the hand free work that way.Second solution ,root
your phone,void you warranty,and start wondering why some kids in their basement have
better knowledge about android then the developer ....

Mercedes C320 (2007 onwards) with inbuilt Bluetooth.

Never had a phone this car doesn't work perfectly with - till now!

Hero running latest official HTC 1.5 rom (Sept 09), will only route audio if I make a
call.  If I receive a call, the audio stays on the handset.  

This is a major frustration.

After this frustration add lack of OBEX SIM Access and File Transfer...

I am having this problem in my 06 BMW 535D and would really like a solution to this. 

Is this resolved in 1.6?

The phone pairs with the car but will not connect at all. This is a major issue for 
me and many other people by the looks of searching on google, ironically.... 

Disappointed today, got the 1.6 update (DRC83) and the G1 still doesn't work with 
2007 US market Nissan Altima and 350Z.  Deleted and re-paired.  Can initiate and 
answer calls but all audio is still through the handset...  

Infiniti 2007 G35X w/built-in Bluetooth
T-Mobile G1 with 1.6 OTA installed

Bluetooth STILL BROKEN after installing 1.6 OTA update.!

Not impressed with the development team after this. This WAS A WORKING FEATURE BEFORE
they rolled out 1.5! And they didn't fix it in 1.6!! Cripes, come on android team.

Development team: simple question: are you fixing this or not? I think we deserve an
answer after 1.6 failed to deliver.

My car is a UK spec BMW 535D Touring M Sport with Professional SatNav and my HTC 
Hero will pair with the car no problem but never connects, just tells me that an 
error has occured.

My previous phone Sony Ericsson K750i worked fine as does my wifes Samsung mobile, 
so the fault definately lies with the Android phone. Like many many others, I need 
this fixed ASAP. 

respond to #56,

i dont have warranty on my phone can you solve this issue by rooting the phone?

FYI:

I emailed Mazda about the lack of audio via bluetooth (in the 2010 Mazda 3).  This 
was there response:

"Thank you for contacting us in regards to your HandsFree system and the Streaming 
Audio feature.

Unfortunately, although your vehicle supports the Streaming Audio feature, the HTC G1 
does not. At this time we have not been made aware of any changes to the software of 
the phone that would make this feature compatible. Likewise, there are no software or 
firmware upgrades available for the HandsFree system. We apologize for any 
inconvenience.

The HandsFreeLink system utilizes both the A2DP and AVRCP profiles to play music 
through the audio speakers and control the music through the radio buttons. If a 
phone does not function well for both of these Bluetooth profiles or has poor audio 
quality, it will not be approved for the Streaming Audio feature

Mazda HandsFree Customer Service"

I have a problem with AddressBook Syncronization; Only the numbers are sent and so
practically the car's address book is unusable. My car is a Ford Cmax Titanium.

Thankx
Alex

I have a 2008 BMW M3 Saloon (E90)
Bluetooth connectivity works fine except I never see CLI when I receive calls.
Address book is fine
Audio is fantastic, great clarity both for me as well as those I'm talking to.
I'm using a vanilla HTC Hero bought on UK launch (so running 1.5/Cupcake)

I JUST UPDATED TO 1.6!!! AND ON MY AFTER MARKET STEREO I WAS ABLE TO PAIR AND HEAR
THE CALL!!!!!

#81. Yeah, but you still have to shout to make yourself heard ;)

I have updated my phone build (UK HTC HERO unlocked) to the 2.73.405.5 from the HTC 
website and it is now working fine with my car, BMW 535D Touring M-Sport 2006. 

The address book has synced across and I have been able to make a call using the 
extended voice controls in car.

The car has Logic 7 if this is of any use?

The phone had the stock build 1.something on it so was somewhat out of date. I am 
still running Android Firmware version 1.5 on the handset.

Infiniti 2006 G35x w/built-in Bluetooth
T-Mobile myTouch with 1.6 OTA installed
Not working. 

@microants77 - Not working how? There are several different issues in this thread.

Able to pair, but never able to connect after pairing... Seems to disable the car's 
bluetooth, cause when I click on the phone key on steering wheel, nothing happens 
(i.e. no beep that you normally get). 

I own a HTC Dream / Android Dev 1 Phone. In general, pairing with my 2010 Prius
system as a phone works great, except for a few things:

- Contacts won't transfer over to the car's phonebook.
- Pairing my Dev1 in phone and mediaplayer mode simultaneously stops working after
the initial pairing. Once you disconnect, you will no longer be able to reconnect
again until you start over by unpairing the device on both the phone and the Prius.

I'm running JF1.5.1 firmware.

I have 2008 Infiniti G37. Using TMobile MyTouch. I got the software update 2 days ago 
and installed it. I paired the phone and it's still having the same issue as before. It  
pairs, but when you make the call it sounds like the person on the other end is under 
water, and they can't hear you at all.

I've been told by Team Android the bluetooth issue can not be duplicated with 
vehicles they have tested. I've tried my G1 on two G model Infiniti's with the same 
result on both. No audio passed unless the BT connection is made after the phone 
call is initiated.

As anyone see proper communication success with doing a "work around" a 
Nissan/Infiniti paired to a 1.5 or 1.6 phone?

sc1scotty - I'm not in the IRC channel at the moment but I'd find it incredibly
unlikely they can't duplicate the problem (or they simply haven't tried). Afterall,
it'd be a bit asinine to suggest that the 119 tickets referenced in this one aren't
legit. 

Once again, I'll extend an open invitation that if anyone from the Android team would
like to come to one of the offices here in Atlanta to test, I'll let them do so on my
BMW 335i.

I went to the TMobile store, and brought the girl out to my car to see if the phone 
would pair correctly on my phone, then on their store demo. Both had the same issue 
that you can't correctly hear the person on the other end, and they can't hear you at 
all. I then demonstrated that the car worked fine by using my Samsung behold to make a 
bluetooth call. So it definitely does not work with the Infiniti g37's, at least for 
model year 2008. And that is after the 1.6 update.

Here is my most recent email and reply:

Me....

More than 3 months have passed since the 1.5 push killed the functionality of BT 
operations listed in issue 3960.

don't look, we won't see a problem".

Thanks for the feedback :)

We've really seen quite a few situations where someone would report an issue with a 
specific model, where we'd find a Google employee in Mountain View with a car that'd 
fit that exact description, and where things would work fine here. This has been the 
case with both BMW and Nissan/Infiniti models. Obviously we can't do that with 
Peugeot/Citroen cars since they're not sold in the US.

I have no visibility over the current technical status of this issue.
I really don't. So far the "hacker" solution I've read about seemed like a band-aid 
more than a fix. I'd love to see actual fixes coming from the Open-Source community, 
but so far it doesn't seem like anybody has had both the conditions to reproduce 
this issue and the skills and willingness to debug it.

Called Google. You can not speak to anyone regarding Android.

I've emailed HTC with my concerns.

I'm going to call T-Mobile and ask for a replacement device (blackberry or other) 
and/or script cancellation.

Guys, what build number are you running on your HTC Hero/G2 devices? 

I have got a uk spec unlocked HTC Hero that I have owned for a month, the stock 
build was 1.something and the latest version on the HTC Website is 2.73. 

I flashed the phone which did not change the Android version, but upgraded the build 
number and now my phone pairs and connects with the car. Might not be the same for 
network locked phones, but I thought it worth mentioning.

Car is BMW 535D Touring M Sport with Pro SatNav and Logic 7 2006 UK Spec.

From the About Phone Screen:

Model Number: T-Mobile myTouch 3G
Firmware Version: 1.6
Baseband Version: 62.50S.20.17U_2.22.19.26I
Kernel Version:2.6.29-00479-g3c7df37 andriod-build@apa26 #19
Build Number: DRC92

BTW, what the heck is Baseband?

As mentioned I do not know if this is any use but my versions are:

Model number: HTC Hero
Firmware Version: 1.5
Baseband Version: 63.18.55.06EU_6.35.06.18
Kernel Version: 2.6.27-8dd6deee HTC-Kernal@and18-2 )
Build Number: 2.73.405.5 146733 CL#61267 release-keys
Software Version: 1.0.0.A6288

This setup works with my BMW 535D after being flashed to the above build number from 
a 1.something build number. Before it would pair but nevever connect, now it 
connects and have transferred over the address book and let me send and receive 
calls over BT, including using extended voice commands.

@Google, it might be worth you posting which versions you are using so people can 
see if there are any descrepancies between your phones which work with their car 
model and their own handsets that don't work with the same make/mode vehicle.  

John... Your kernel is HTC created. 
Mine... Android in the States.
Build and version same as Microants above.

John, Also.. You never mention if your device did not work with your 
car BT prior to the flash?

T-Mo is calling me back this afternoon to talk about switching my device to a BB.

@sc1scotty, before the flash upgrade my device would only pair but never connect 
with the car.

My phone is running Android 1.5 which is was running before the flash so for me 
changing the Build number fixed the issue using the same version of the Android OS, 
1.5, which ties in with google saying that they have been unable to reproduce this 
using their handsets.

Do you have a T-Mobile G2 Touch? In other words a phone that requires a T-Mobile 
custom ROM, with their branding etc? In which case it may something in the service 
providers implmentation that that preventing it from working. 

Does anyone with an unlocked handset have this issue or is it primarily an issue 
with locked handsets?

still no connections in 2007 nissan sentra with G1. phone will pair correctly but the audio 
still does not route through the car speakers. cmon guys this  cant be that difficult to fix. I 
really  dont want to have to switch to an iphone. I really want to believe in android. 

I will be uploading a video demonstrating how  this DOES NOT WORK!!. maybe its time to 
hack the phone and let some genius fix it

John, I have a G1 via T-mobile. I am now running 1.6 as of the push within this past 
week. Nothing changed with the issue and symptoms when the phone went from 1.5 to 
1.6. 

Phone and car connect and operate as expected with the exception of the lack of audio 
transfer to/from the phone to the car. If a call comes in the car recognizes it, 
turns down the stereo and info on the cars display. I can except the call on the 
steering wheel then I have to pick the phone up and talk and listen.

On the rare occasion get into the car while already involved in a phone conversation, 
turn the car on, allow the car and phone to sync. The audio is flawlessly passed from 
phone to car "as advertised". So bluetooth pairing during an active call is the only 
way to transfer the send/receive audio to car BT.

G1, or MyTouch (G2) have the same symptoms due to running the same Android OS. Two 
phones and G model (35/37) Infiniti's produced the same results.

Interesting to see that infiniti considers the G1 to be compat:
http://www.infinitiusa.com/bluetooth/

i have used the method on Comment 47 by rosscartlidge, and it worked on my htc magic.
changed audio.conf like this
[General]
Enable=
Disable=Headset,Gateway,Source,Control,Sink

Phone is HTC magic Vodafone UK
Car is BMW 520d 2006 uk model

My phone is rooted, no custom rom added. Just rooted to be able to change the file.
EVRYTHING works, pairs, connects, can answer call from steering wheel, end call, use
the onboard screen to see my contacts, call a numbers from them, see my last calls etc.
Before rooting i had problems as mentioned before,I answer the call and cannot hear
anything from car speakers, although is paired and connected and also pressing the
button on the steering wheel did not end the call. Also dropped/lost the bluetooth
connection.

I wonder why google doesn't release a program with authorization to change the
audio.conf file, so people having problems can try the method i have mentioned
without getting into the hassle of root.

@Comment 102 by harisdotdot

can you post this  method or email me the steps for this on the G1?

joenoel323@gmail.com

Add me to that email: sc1cotty@gmail.com

this site has me interested. followed the instructions but cant complete the last step.
can anyone comment on this process
 
http://zedomax.com/blog/2008/11/05/g1-hack-how-to-get-remote-root-access-to-g1-phone/

Disappointed and frustrated, I've ordered a HTC Touch Pro II (running Windows 
Mobile) via T-Mobile at a reduced price I can recover selling my G1.

Google really needs to view this problem from a safety perpective.

your phone must be rooted
there is a file in /etc/bluez/audio.conf
copy that to your pc.Change the lines
from
-----------------------------
Enable=Source,Control,Sink
Disable=Headset,Gateway
-----------------------------

to 
-----------------------------
Enable=
Disable=Headset,Gateway,Source,Control,Sink
-------------------------------------------

save it.
copy the changed file back to /etc/bluez/

Thats it.
There is a tool to help you pull and push files (carefull)from
http://code.google.com/p/adb-file-explorer/
If you have root, click the button on top right that says [Remount]
Hover over each button to see what it does. I also have the sdk from google 
installed.

The method in comment 102 and 107 worked for me as well. Im not exactly sure what it
disables but as I only use the bluetooth for my car's handfree, this is a acceptable
solution for now. 

2008 Altima Coupe with MyTouch 3G and Android 1.6

My phone seems to be pairing and functioning properly with my pioneer 8000BT headunit now after 
1.6.  It connects within 15 seconds or so once I turn bluetooth on the phone.  It also seems to play 
music over BT just fine and the voice quality sounds good.  I doubt it matters but I did not wait for the 
OTA update I manually from sd card

I have the phone rooted. I am searching what I need to do to access and modify that 
file.

That tips doesn't work on my Ford Cmax. :-(Any new Idea!!! 

For the 2010 Mazda 3 I have no know issues for phone audio, my problem persists with the Media audio. Well it 
shows connected to a media device when I turn up the volume it says "Connected to Bluetooth Audio" I currently 
have a G1 US.  My other car is a 2008 Ford Edge and I have no known issues other than I cant listen to my text 
messages w/ the G1 on the Ford.

See also bug #4218 - com.android.phone died on me while connecting to BMW 320i (2007 Europe). Seems to be 
related to one particular contact in my phonebook.

My phone actually seems to be working fine after the 1.6 update.  bluetooth pairs and 
connects by itself how it should, call quality is good, media quality good as well.  I 
have the Pioneer 8000BT head unit.

My main issue is with temp/pitch change when connected to my car stereo Sony
BT2500 via bluetooth. The temp/pitch changes every 30 seconds for about 5-10
seconds, speeding up and slowing down as much as a semitone. This occurs even when
wi-fi and gps is switched off, 2g and bluetooth are the only things on.

I didn't have this issue with my Sony/ericsson K770i when streaming music. How was
this issue not noticed before release? I would hate to start using a 3.5mm jack
instead of bluetooth.  Don't let me down android.

SOLVED WITH DONUT 1.6:
My problem was that the address book was syncronized only with the telephone numbers.
Now all the numbers are imported correctly with all names. :-)

Wonderful.

The G1 isn't going to get 1.6, is it?

My G1 got upgraded to 1.6 this morning and the problem has disappeared! Thanks a lot!

The only problem was that the names were missing from the phone book list in the car,
which are now there.

- T-Mobile G1 in The Netherlands
- Ford Focus 2009 Titanium with Blaupunkt TravelPilot FX (5" display)

I meant the G1 in the UK, sorry.

Goolgle phone? HTC HERO
Lexus RX450h contact synchonization does not work! 
Windows Mobile 6.1 2G 3years old phone, contact synchonization work perfect!

Nissan Altima Hybrid 2008 (purchased End of 2007). Did work with Android 1.1. Stopped working with 1.5 and 
still doesn't work with 1.6. 

The address book problem of not sending the contacts names to the Ford Mondeo system 
has been resolved using a G1 with 1.6. However, as T-Mobile are currently saying that 
you aren't going to get 1.6 in the UK, you'll have to force the update yourself.

I have a 2004 BMW 3-series and the HTC Hero. I'm able to pair and connect. But the
phone loses the connection after a short while (approx. 15-20 seconds), then it
connects again automatically after a few seconds and loses the connection again. So
if a call comes in while the phone is connected, i can use the car-system to speak,
but if the call comes in while the phone's not connected, the automatic connection
does not work any more. Maybe this input can help the developers. 

Altima 2007 Coupe. Nav, Bose, system.

BT worked with 1.1... stopped completely after 1.5.

1.6 did not help.


Help

I have a BMW 520d 2006 and BT fail, at first time connect, but if receive or do a
call, the phone loses the conection. I have donut 1.6 and HTC magic

Yesterday, I got 1.6 and nothing changed: Bluetooth connection is established but
disconnects after some seconds. Very frustrating :-(
(Opel Vectra 2006 with CD70 - Germany)

See also issue 4402; many newer car systems use rSAP (Remote Sim Access Profile) to 
utilise the phone, and this isn't implemented yet; so the phone won't talk to the car 
properly.

I am the owner of a 2003 Ford Mondeo GHIA. The BT worked perfectly in 1.5, but now,
with 1.6, i have no sound although the connection is established perfectly :(

The Volkswagen car kit Premium uses the <a
href="http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIM_Access_Profile">RSAP</a> profile. Please put
this onto the roadmap!
So this is relevant for Golf, Passat etc. Also Audi uses this for their car kit.

I have a 2010 Mazda CX9 with the Bose Nav system and the bluetooth works fine with making and 
receiving calls.  The caller sounds great and they say they can hear me just fine.  The bluetooth audio 
connects and even though it cannot pick up track info (I may have tagged my mp3s incorrectly) it can 
still pause, play, skip songs fine in the music player.  The big proble is that no sound comes out the 
speakers.  The phone shows it is connected via bluetooth audio when changing volume and the settings 
show its paired and connected to both phone and media.  I tested youtube vids and still no sound.

I have a Moto Cliq with 1.5
- addtl prob, it doesn't connect automatically when in range but not a big hassle.

I also tested on my G1 with Cyan 4.2.2
- connects automatically when in range just fine

I haven't tested other file types or other media players yet (will test this later). I also haven't tested any 
of the mentioned coding changes (which I can but won't help on my wifes phone which is more 
important anyway but I don't plan to hack hers.... yet ;)

I haven't read thoroughly on everyone's suggestions yet but just wanted to throw this out there.  I keep 
thinking its a stupid hidden setting but I keep running into brick walls and I've stumped the dealer 
dudes on this one.

Thanks all and if 2.0 fixes this, I can wait and will be totally stoked!

I spoke with T-Mobile about switching and they will not replace the device without a 
re-upgrade and paying for the new device. Something about being out of the customer 
grievance period. I think T-Mobile should be providing a warning regarding the 
bluetooth feature for the vehicles it doesn't work with. ANDROID should investing in 
a fix. I am tempted to cancel my contract and move to a different network after 
wasting so much time not getting anywhere with either t-mobile or android.

I have a g35x.

I've 1.6 firmware version and a Peugeot 308 Sport in Spain and hands free (peugeot
radio equipment included) doesn't work. In my case doesn't work with 1.5 vfirm
version Too.

Hi, with my G1 the car audio mutes when dialling or recieving a call but the call is 
not heard through the handsfree system. Instead you have to pick up the phone & use 
the phone in the normal way.
My car is a Mercedez CLS.
Can anyone help with this issue please?

My comment 107 was with htc magic vodafone firmware 1.5.
Now i have installed Google ION rom which has donut. I have checked if it would work
as it is but it didnt. I did again the steps on comment 107 and works perfectly now.
Comment 136,and 126 (got exactly same car) the phone drops the bluetooth connection.
Try my method.

Hello Android team? Can we please get an update on when (or even if) this will be
fixed? Seriously folks, this has been broken long enough.

All of my Facebook friends are loaded into my Car's address book, instead of just my
Android contacts as it should be.  I have Facebook configured to "Sync with existing
contacts", so only my existing Android contacts are updated with Facebook's data on
the phone, no new contacts are added to the phone from Facebook.  Phone: Motorola
DROID, Android V2.0.  Car: 2003 BMW M3 with OEM Navigation and bluetooth.

Any resolution planned for this? I could do this on my BlackBerry 8830, and can't on
the HTC Hero.

 Issue 4327  has been merged into this issue.

This thread doesn't really make it clear but this seems to still be an issue on Android 
2.0 as well.. this thread at the Motorola site has several people talking about staticy 
audio connections on their DROID's with Nissan Altima's and Infinity G35's...

https://supportforums.motorola.com/message/64868

I have a 2008 Altima Coupe 2.5s without Navigation package (previous post had
navigation).  I tried both of the following at the Sprint store: an HTC Hero (Android
1.5) and a Samsung Moment(think it is Android 1.6).  Both phones will pair with the
car, but will not connect.  

I'd really like to get an Android phone (but not willing to get a new car to do so).
Please tell me someone is working on this...

See issues 1181, 1414, and 3063.  Glad to see this is a critical issue here.  The
main problem in Android 2.0 and Droid is that the handfree green button long press
does not initiate the voice search.  This problem exists on the phone as well as when
connected via bluetooth.  The green button on the handsfree system works just like it
does on the phone itself.  The problem appears to be with the phone software not
having a green button long press event.

 Issue 4556  has been merged into this issue.

I have a BMW 2009 BMW 335xi coupe w/ idrive. The droid gets paired but the address
book is not transferred. This is a big problem.

I have a 2007 Infiniti G35X with this same issue.  Droid gets paired but sound on
call has static and person on other end cannot hear me.  Also cannot transfer address
book.  Would appreciate being notified on solution.  I really like the Droid but need
to have quality hands free calling capability.

I have a Mercedes CLS550 and address book will not load, nor does it recognize any 
numbers or names; all calls are from UNKNOWN.  Also does not list Calls received, 
Calls Dialed.  WIth my BlackBerry it worked fine. 

My 2006 Lexus RX400h pairs to the Droid just fine.  However the Lexus BT wants the 
Droid to send the Phone Book to it.  It will not auto initiate the transfer and just 
sits and waits for me to manually have the Droid send the Phone Book.  I would 
assume all older model Lexus and Toyota vehicles to have the same issue.

1.5 worked fine with my Audi RNS-E satnav + bluetooth, which is the standard
Audi/VW/Lamborghini satnav available now.

1.6 (latest Cyanogen) works perfectly with my Kenwood DNX-7120, though previous to
1.6 I could not initiate calls from the satnav interface.  Not sure if you're keeping
track of aftermarket units, but I figured I'd comment anyways.

Android 2.0 (verizon droid) in my 2008 BMW X5 - takes a while to connect, phone book
loads, "com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly" message, drops the connection,
then the cycle starts over again....

Installing CyanogenMod didn't change anything for me :-(
Bluetooth connection is established but disconnects after some seconds. Immediate
reconnect is not tried and also not possible manually.

Also Comment 107  by harisdotdot did not help.
Very frustrating :-(

Other info which someone might find helpful:
After clearing all contact data in "manage applications", bluetooth ist working fine
- without any contacts then, of course.
After restoring contacts using MyBackup or Google contact sync, my bluetooth is
broken again.

Citroen Berlingo with bluetooth option is not working.
The car is saying that the device ( HTC Hero ) is not covering all the requirements
needed ...

2004 Acura TL and Android 2.0/Motorola Droid: Audio quality is almost unusable at the
non-Droid end of the call.
Lots of micro-dropouts occur throughout the call, making it incredibly difficult for
people I call to understand me. In addition, I have had frequent Hands-Free Link
drops down to the handset without any (or, rarely with) audible notification.
Sometimes, the call will return back up to the HFL system, but not always.

I have also had the exact same problems with my Jawbone II headset.

I have tested the audio quality problem myself a number of times by resetting the
Droid, and then initiating a call to my home or work voicemail. The audio quality has
always been terrible with every test call.

(No comment was entered for this change.)

We seem to be at the 'needs info' status for a while now.  There was a comment
referred to a few months ago that the folks in Mountain View tried to pair up the
phone with similar vehicles belonging to employees and were unable to duplicate the
issue.  Since I am experiencing the issue, would it be helpful for me to get a log of
the failure or something?  I am a fairly knowledgeable user (can do a logcat, etc)
and with some minor instruction, would be happy to assist any way I can to nail down
this issue so it can be fixed.

Motorola DROID.  2010 Acura TL with Navi.  DROID and TL pair OK for phone use.  
However, Bluetooth Audio pairs, but does not work.  When I hit play on the DROIDS 
media player to play a song, it seems to play, but no sound from the car stereo. 
(although the car stereo properly indicates BT Audio selected and volume is way 
up).  If I adjust the volume on the DROID, the screen indicates 'bluetooth audio 
volume' so that DROID does think it is paired.  Upon further observation of the 
media player controls, the song is actually in somewhat of a 'fast forward' mode 
around 3x normal speed.  If I hit the pause button on the Acura stereo, the DROID 
media player pauses.  If I hit the resume button on the Acura Radio, the DROID media 
player resumes at the same 3x speed with no sound.  I have tried various 
combinations of pause/resume/fast forward/play on both the DROID and Acura without 
any success.

Because of the lack of connectivity with my Infiniti G35 and the lack of 'hands free' connection with my Jawbone 
.....I have de-activated the DROID and gone back to the Motorola Adventure V750 Razr phone for safety reasons.

Here to report that Verizon's Droid with Android 2.0 does not work as well.

Infiniti G35X (2007) built in bluetooth.

I can pair phone but audio garbled laced with static. Person on other end of call
doesn't hear any audio. Toggling "use handset" and back to BT phone fixes audio--but
definitely not worth getting into an accident over.

Seriously, I can't believe it's been 6 months, two releases later, and there's STILL
no fix.

Come on Android team, light a fire under this!

I've got an HTC Hero running 1.5. My car is a 2008 BMW 335i (Canadian).

My hero pairs no problems and the phone contact list shows up perfectly. There are
only two issues I've got.

1) When I get an incoming call, the display simply shows **********, not the name or
phone number of the incoming call (worked fine w/Motorola Razr). Outbound works fine.

2) Once in a blue moon: I disable the bluetooth via widget. Next time I get a call,
the phone is convinced I'm still on bluetooth. There is no audio in the handset, and
hitting volume up/down shows that it is adjusting bluetooth volume. The BT is
certainly disabled, no icon displayed at the top. Only solution to power cycle the phone.

For the record, I'm still hearing garbled audio on my Nissan Altima using the Droid, 
firmware 2.0.1....  

MULTIPLE issues with my Droid (still 2.0) and a 2005 BMW X5. Phone paired with X5 
fine, but never has loaded, or even asked to load, my phonebook. The phone will not 
automatically connect - sometimes it will if I do it manually, but yesterday it 
stopped connecting at all. When it did connect, the caller's voice would go in and 
out, with a rolling static-y buzz that was almost rhythmic coming through the 
speaker. I was constantly having to ask them to repeat what they said. Add to all of 
this the lack of voice dialing, and the phone is virtually USELESS as a hands-free 
device. This is a HUGE deal - beyond convenience, it is a LEGAL and SAFETY problem. 

I just cannot believe this phone won't work any better than this...

Would integration of bluez-sap (http://gitorious.org/bluez-sap) into Android be a
solution to the rSAP request?

Here to report that I just received 2.0.1 OTA for my Droid, aaaand..............

B L U E T O O T H   S T I L L   N O T   W O R K I N G.

(sigh)

But wait! I can also report that they changed the unlock gesture from an arcing
motion to a horizontal one! Thank the maker such a critical issue was addressed!
Re-engineering the arc to a straight line probably saved the world, huh Android Team?

Six months, two phones and three updates later. Still waiting... --sarcasm fully
justified.

Unbelievable.

OK: got my Droid 2.0.1 update - it DID allow me to load my phonebook into my 2005 
BMW X5, BUT THE PHONE STILL DOES NOT CONNECT unless I ask it to manually, and then 
only connects one out of every 2 or 3 requests. And now the Bluetooth connection is 
not clear - there are times when neither end can hear the other. Completely 
unacceptable, this is too important to be asuch a virtually non-functioning feature. 
STILL.

And, off-topic, I'll second that the new unlock is a huge step backward. Before, it 
was a one-handed operation: I'm right-handed, and I could easily swipe using my 
thumb on the hand holding the phone. Now it's pretty much a 2-handed operation. Who 
thought this was important, much less an improvement, much much less even necessary 
or desired???

Nice move, guys!

Bluetooth will pair but not connect on our 2005 Lexus RX350.  This is a SAFETY issue
and should be resolved.

2.0.1 update to the DROID has corrected the Bluetooth Audio issue with the 2010 Acura TL.

My HTC Hero is not compatible with my Mazada 3,2010. This is my second HTC in less
than 30 days so now I am confident there is a problem. 
Effective January 1, 2010 in this region one must have a hands free device or you
will receive a nice hefty fine. It's become a safety issue here. So disappointing
that the phone and car not compatible. Now I have to purchase a 3rd party device. 
Hopefully the upcoming release of droid 2 will address these issues.

Just upgraded from 1.5 to 1.6, and the bluetooth is still not working with my 2007 
BMW Z4. It worked with 1.1, but now I only get audio, no mic.

My Samsung Moment 1.6 will show paired but not connected with my 2009 Acura TL Tech Package. I 
can manually connect it each time I get in the car, but it only works about 5-10 times before the car's 
bluetooth address appears on the phone rather than HandsfreeLink.  Once the address appears, I can 
no longer manually connect the phone and need to restart it to be able to manually connect it again.

Won't auto connect between samsung moment and 2009 Acura TL Tech package. Requires manual 
connection each time I get in the car.
