i have a 2008 landrover LR2 and i can't seem to use my touch hd with its bluetooth system. i just got the car back from the dealer and they told me that they updated the car's bluetooth software to the latest release. but it still doesn't work with the touch hd.
the phone pairs with the car, but i cannot make or receive calls through the car's bluetooth system. i had an unlocked htc tytn II before my touch hd, and that worked fine with my landrover. i figured that there wouldn't be a problem with the touch hd.
does anyone have any idea of what i can do? or anyone else have this same problem?
i don't know if there's a bluetooth tweak/fix/update for the touch, but i can't find it. i've already installed the touch hd tweak program, but i don't know how to adjust any of the bluetooth settings on the phone to maybe make it work better.
please help.

I have similar problems with my Volvo XC70...no idea what to do, as I think the bluetooth versions are incompatible...funny because my Diamond worked fine.
If anyone has any ideas, I am willing to experiment. Thanks!
Solution..................................dont sell the HD, sell the car.......
Have the dealer get the bluetooth conecting......There shouldnt be any incompatible issues.
Try it with another type of car and then go back to the dealer and try in the same car you have to confirm that its not the HD
Hi,
See this thread. It's not exactly the same problem, but you can give it a try
Grz
my Touch HD (feb09) works fine with my Freelander2 (08) - BUT - sometimes the carkit sees a different "named" HTC. Weird ???
device name
owner name - my owner input
BT name - a bluetooth name I gave it using a "settings tool"
or string of numbers, gawd know where that came from ???
Keep trying....

hi all. just curious to know if anyone else has paired their hd with the above head unit? My previous vario3 had no problem connecting and neither does my old nokia 6630, but for some reason the hd just won't pair. Any and all advice appreciated. incidentally I've written all this on my newest toy, cool eh?
* Bump. Sorry, but i'd really like to get to the bottom of this!
It's okay, don't worry, I've done it now.

I guess you have the DNX7200 and KCA-BT200? Did you install the latest firmware on your DNX7200 device and on the KCA-BT200? (on the kenwood website of your country)
I've got the KVT-729DVD + KCA-BT200 and it works great.
Mine automatically pairs with my jvc kdbt22, turn the radio on and it it automatically pairs for both headset and wireless music and will automatically stream music if I select Bluetooth on the radio via the Touchflow player.

I am wondering what is different in my setup compared to yours. My HD pairs with my KVT-522DVD + KCA-BT200 alright. The phone book get loaded and I can browse contacts, but NOTHING happens when when I push the call button or pick up button on the 522DVD screen.... both units are FW updated to the latest versions.
Regards, Steffen
I used to use mine with my Pioneer FH-P80BT - worked perfectly fine
The only time I had the problem you mentioned (about receiving calls) was when I disabled the hardware buttons on my device using S2U2 or something similar (apparantly it affects the use of handsfree kits aswell!) - hope this helps...
Thanks zoomee, I think is has to do with the KCA-BT200 (the seperate BT box attached to the multimedia unit) and the capabilities of its FW. The Touch HD is not in the list of "approved" cellphones with tha latest FW, but the Touch Pro is and I would expect it to use the same protocol - maybe a bit optimistic
I know this is an older post but...
I was curious if any of you Kenwood users that have the option to SMS from your deck can use this feature with any HTC/windows mobile phone. My phone pairs with my H/U just fine (KVT-514) and does everything aside from SMS. The feature is grayed out. It's not like I will ever use it, but I would still like to make it work if I can.
SMS is grayed out on my 522DVD as well. I think you/we will have to wait until Kenwood release new updated FW with newer phones for the BT200 unit.

My DNX-5260BT won't even download the phonebook! It connects but only allows dialled calls...gutted.

Hi people
i have the same problem with my DNX5269BT and HD2
Any of you have a some suggestion?
I have a problem concerning the use of my Touch HD with my hands-free car kit (Nissan Qashqai). Pairing works fine as well as receiving and making calls. The annoying issue is the following:
Upon connection the display in my car shows the field strength as well as the battery status. The field strength indicator is OK, but the battery status indicator is always wrong. It always shows the battery as currently empty. It can be seen here, where as user having the same problem has posted a photo.
I already used HD Tweak and altered the bluetooth settings but without success. Also other WM6.1 devices don't show this issue. I suspect, someting might be wrong with the HFP 1.5 bluetooth profile in the Touch HD.
After reading this document I think that the AT+CMER command is not properly transmitted or the answer is not properly processed
That's as far as I came...
Can someone confirm this or even better: provide a solution for this?
Thanks heaps in advance,
Udo.
Hi
Yes, i can confirm this.
I think this is a Problem with communication between WM6.1 and the radio.
I am not sure, that the answer is not properly processed. Because the HTC TyTN II with WM6.1 works fine.
I believe that the AT+CMER command is transmitted to the wrong value.
I hope, anyone can help us

Same problem for me, always empty battery with the Touch HD.
Works fine with my Windows Mobile 6.1 Diamond.
I own a HTC Touch Cruise II T4242 connected to Handfree of a Toyota Rav4 and i've the same problem. Battery status at thru bluetooth indicates always empty. I wonder if anybody come up with a solutions...
Bump...
Any solution yet?
I can’t get my HTC Touch HD to work properly with my JVC KW-NX7000 Navigation/DVD Receiver in my car.
I know the two are connected!
How do I know the two are connected?
On the display of my JVC I can see following:
- The signal-strength of my provider (Vodafone)
- The battery-status of the HTC Touch HD
- The Bluetooth icon has turned blue
- The address book is copied to the JVC
When I want to make a call from my JVC, it tries to dial the number and shortly after that I get an error-notice on the display.
I contacted both (HTC and JVC) about this problem, but neither of them came up with a solution to my problem.
HTC claimed that the problem was not with the HTC Touch HD but with the JVC and JVC (you guest it right) claimed that the problem was not with the JVC but with the HTC Touch HD.
When I turn on the display of the HTC Touch HD and then make a call from my JVC, everything works fine. I found this out by accident.
(After I tried to make a call from my JVC and got the error-notice on my display, I turned on the screen of my HTC Touch HD. I was very surprised to see that at the same time the call was made by the JVC.)
For some reason, the display of the HTC Touch HD doesn’t turn on when I make a call from my JVC.
Isn't there anyone who can help me with my problem?
I have the same problem with HTC Touch Pro
Hello everybody.
i am using my htc touch hd with latest dutty rom and my car is unable to find my phone, once solution is to make the car visible and find it from my phone.
my htc s710 worked fine on the same systen in the mercedes e - class, the car downloaded all contacts automatically.
but with the touch hd, the car does not find my phone.
visible mode and bt is enabled.
i am going to try duttys wm 6.5 r1 release now.
any suggestions ?
thanks
Do you have remote SIM enabled in your BT settings?
yes i have rsap activated.
but the car does not find my touch hd i tried several roms.
6.1 roms and 6.5 roms.
Right now i am using a 6.5 rom from dutty.
my phone finds the car, but the car does not find the phone.
its a mercedes audio 50 system which works just as a headset for me, i cant use sms or access my contacts.
once way is to send all contacts into the car.
Maybe you could find silly what I'm about to tell, but...
Have you tried an original stock ROM?
And: does your Touch connect with other BT devices without problems?
i can connect to my computer here, and to other mobile phones. and i can connect to my car.
But advanced bt options are only available if the car finds the phone and not the phone finds the car, i think.
my phone finds the car, and i can use it as headset... and i can call from the car, and i am able to send contact from the blackstone to the car.
but i cannot read/write sms or use rsap.
the car told me "no telephone found"
thanks
i got some problems with my concert2 car radio(audi). my old i780 worked like a charm, the TP2 can connect, but if a call comes in there comes no sound out of the speakers. i made the tp2 visible to all and set the radio to authorised connection. in the settings section i can only set hands free protocol and the tp2 ask every time i connect for a password, although it should remeber it.

I have a Pioneer Bluetooth module (CD-BTB200) and my T-Mobile Touch Pro2 hooks up perfectly with the unit (I can transfer contacts, stop/start calls, etc). However, I cannot get the ring (on an incoming call) to go through the speakers.
It worked fine on my Dash with Jetware and the M$ Bluetooth stack, but the TP2 stack uses the widcomm stack, so previous tools won't work to make adjustments.
You should have bought a Ford
I have a S-Max and it bonds beautifully. Just kidding... I think this is a situation you should ask for your Audi dealer.
i think it`s the TP2 causing the problem. Audi tested the Diamond, which also works on WM6.1 and it works. So if there aren`t some fundamental changes concerning the bluetooth drivers, i think there is another problem. i remember that, after installation of tomtom7, i had to replace some bt file to make bluetooth work properly. i found it somewhere here and afaik it was one of the original drivers.

You will need to look at who makes the BlueTooth Stack: Microsoft or Widcomm when comparing the Diamond.
Once you determine the manufacturer, you can proceed down that line of troubleshooting.
As for asking for a password, you can click on the properties of the connected device in the bluetooth settings and check "Authorize this connection" or something like like that.
