This is more FYI others.... when I started looking at new phones some times ago to intergrate in to my car system getting one that was able to do BT headset and com port at the same time was important - and in fact to my knowllage the IJam was the first.
Any way as it seems no ones broached the subject and at the time I would have killed for this info I'm please to say I have tried both my BT carkit and GPS with Tomtom at the same time and it works... I'm currious if I can get 3 concurent connections now
Any way - probably no biggy for most here - its just my was of helping any newbie that comes along searching for this info... like I did once.

Hi Terran,
Out of interest, which BT car kit have you got? I've got to replace two Nokia kits now we've got the 9100's. I've looked at the parrot kits, but am using voice commander and would like a kit that works as well as my Scala bt headset.

The Parrot CK3000 - Had it since it came out and never looked back. Used to cost me ( cos no company even my current one which expects me to travel has ever give me a car kit ) a fortune before BT having to upgrade to specific kits... and they where a pain to install.
Parrot - Can't fault em - but my only tip is buy the upgrade cables... I've upgraded mine several times and it has helped depending on the issue.... for example..
I've not upgraded it this time how ever the other half found the quality of sound from me ( ie in the car ) better than with my T610...
Hope that helps - PS if you want GPS some of the higer models have it built in.
Terran
PPS Any one with a basic under standing of plug socket a in to socket b can do the install in about 10 mins or so.... the worst part is getting the radio out.
Thanks for the reply Terran.
My only concern (aside from the Parrot compatibility, which you've cleared) is that with two 6310i's, if my personal phone rang, I could ping the work one out of the kit and plug in my own within a couple of seconds. I can't find a way to disconnect the 9100 from my BT headset (which operated in hands-free mode too).I asked here, and after 70 views, there have been no replies... I don't know if there's a quick way on the Parrot kit, and if so, how fast I could "connect" the other handset, or, if I'd have to have two kits, one for each phone...

Never tried but my Parrots update is supposed to support up to 3 handsets... you can set which one gets priority...
I think they have a forum so may be its worth having a chat with em.

If you have a CK3000 then this thred ( especially post #20 ) is worth noting...

Dear Sir,
Thanks for visiting our forum.
Concerning your request, with the K750and W800 it's not possble to use the phone's voice recognition system
with the CK3000. This issue to the phone software and unfortunately only Sony Ericssson can make some improvments
on it.
However with the CK3000 evolution, you have the possibility to send contacts from the mobile phone to the car kit.
Thanks to this function, you can use the car kit voice recognition system and no more the phone voice recognition system : we are no more depend on the mobile phone. The knob of the evolution's remote control allows you to select this function by spoken menus. It's the same way like for the CK3100 however instead of a graphic indications you have voice prompts. This function was not possible with with the CK3000.
To change your CK3000 into a CK3000 evolution. You just need to change the car kit software and to change the buttons.
However the software update have to be done using a Parrot Serial cable or by Bluetooth using a Parrot Flash Kit.
That's why we ask to send us the unit.
If you have the buttons and a way to make the update , the transformation into a CK3000 evolution is possible.
However for technical reasons, please send us before an email to our technical support : [email protected] .
Some situations can cause bad issues and it will be wise to check with us if the transformation is possible.
Please note : Before to make the software update, please erase the car kit memory. You just need to press the green and red button of the car kit at the same time: you will hear MEMORY ERASING PLEASE WAIT and then your can release the buttons. Once you hear PLEASE PAIR DEVICE, the car kit is OK for the update.
Best Regards

In other words if you have the flash kit ( which I do ) all you need to do is upgrade the buttons for £18 and flash the ROM and you have a new upto date Carkit...

I was wondering if anybody here had the same combination and wanted to share the experiences.
My only problem is that the steering wheel button that is used to make, answer and end a call doesn’t support the press and hold option for activating the voice dial.
Wanted to know whether there is workaround for this.
Thnx
No1?
being an off-road vehicle, have you found a good solid holder for the universal for when you are on steep inclines or bumpy fields?

I also have a problem with getting the voice dial to work on my 320d (new E90 shape).
I have not been able to synchronise my phonebook from my JASJAR to my car. Do I need to copy the entries to my SIM to get that to work?
Thanks

I tried copying the entries to my SIM card but it didn’t result with syncing phonebook with the car.
About voice dial on the steering wheel, well, what is puzzling me is the fact that the button works perfectly as VOICE DIAL/CONNECT/DISCONNECT/REDIAL button on most of the Nokias that I tried to pair with BMW. :x
I am using Nokia’s BT headset HDW-3 with my JJ and it has only one button for operating the phone with different PRESS/PRESS&HOLD/DOUBLE PRESS combinations and it initiates the voice dial without any problems with PRESS&HOLD.
I repeat the button on steering wheel is behaving like that with Nokia telephones (the same thing PRESS&HOLD) but with not with JJ. It just redials or disconnects active conversation. :?
Is it the same on yours?
Lets invite others to share experience with other cars… although BMW BT is very challenging for every mobile phone, it is very unfriendly…

I have not tried it with other phones, but it behaves the same way with my JJ. I started thinking it was because I'm blonde...
Update: (maybe it will be useful to someone)
After updating JJ with latest i-mate ROM the cars BT is able to read the phonebook from JJ. It can read both from the SIM card as well as from telephone memory.
Unfortunately, the issue with voice dial button persists...
I am also having trouble using my BT headset to voice dial (not car related).

The same thing here and it is definitely the problem of new ROM. Before that my headset speed dialing from my Jabra 800 was flawless...
You win some, you lose some with Win mobile updates...
I have simialr issue with my Audi A4 with in built BT device, the voice dial is particularly sh1t, and activates at the end of voice calls

I work for a BMW dealer but havent tried pairing my Wizard...will try it on my bosses new 330i.
also the bmw page that confirms the divices tried and tested by BMW to work with their cars....as you will see, no latest phones...and no WM phones.
still, some phones do work, but dont allow phone book transfer to the car...others dont work at all....
and incase anyone was wondering, BMW's do not support bluetooth stereo...so we cant beam music from the phone to the car
please ask any questions...i will try and answer them.

I have X5 with BT and HTC Wizard and having problem to even pairing it.
Can you, please let me know you results of trying to pair your Wizard with your boss's bmw?
Recently bought this carstereo, as it got bluetooth buildt in. The combination with S200 works allmost excelent, but for two things.
What it does: It works well as a handsfree set, it mutes the sound, shows the number in the display, and the remote control either accept or reject the call. What it does'nt do (and the manual warns about this, I was aware of this before I bought it): It won't sync the phonebook. Either can I beam single contacts.
Anyone here tried this combination and had better luck than me? Any good advice?
HPN
I have the JAMin with this head unit. Exactly the same experience as you. I also have two other things I'd like to change or find a solution for:
1. Although auto-connect is on, I have to connect manually (the manual warns of this). I wonder if there's some way of automating this or at least making it one click form either the pda or the head unit.
2. Pressing and holding 'band' triggers VoiceCommander on my PDA but I can't give commands. It seems that the audio form the car's mic is not fed through to the pda. Any ideas?

I have the same problems and i don't find any solution
Anyone have any luck resolving these problems? I'm looking into a Pioneer DEH-9800bt and want to transfer my phonebook, as well as use voice commander.
Using Jetware you'll solve all your probs.
After many frustrating weeks of problems pairing my TYTN2 and Parrot3100 I have stumbled upon a fix that actually works (for me anyway).
After trying all of the usual fixes (upgrading firmware, running jetware, Bluetooth hotfix etc.)with no success at all, it seems that the way to go is to downgrade the parrot to version 4.15b of the CK3300. This is apparently quite safe as the only difference is that the 3300 has gps (however you flash at your own risk). See here, post #14 http://www.parrot.com/forums/english/viewtopic.php?id=5054.
Hope this helps, post any results to confirm that this was no fluke.
Parrot released 4.17a firmware. This finally helps my tytn working perfectly in combination with jetware. Even navigation instructions pass through my car's speakers when I press the call initiate button on my carkit.
Is the 3300's software working better?
I downgraded from the 3100 v4.17a to the 3300 v 4.15b and the only difference from my old phones is that the parrot no longer syncs the contacts. But that is no problem as I am running Voice Commander 1.6 anyway, which by the way is working perfectly now too.
I received the message below from Parrot today as I had an open ticket regarding the CK3100 and my Tilt. It will be the end of next week before I can do the update, as I will be on vacation starting tomorrow.
Hello,
Parrot has released new software for the CK3100 & the 3200LS that resolves the audio transfer issue with HTC touch screen phones. Please update your car kit to the latest version using our Parrot Software Update Tool & a Bluetooth enabled computer. Be sure to delete the car kit from your phone's Bluetooth settings after updating. You will need to re-pair your phone to the car kit. Failure to do so may result in erratic behavior.
Link for Update Tool & instructions:
http://www.parrot.com/usa/support/downloads
updated the firmware to 4.17a this afternoon. So far, so good, but my phantom dialing and random engagement of the mute switch were intermittent before. Will post again in a week or so if the problems don't materialize before then.
My Nexus pairs with our car (Audi) perfectly, all the phone numbers transfer exactly as they are in the phone book.
My wife's Nexus however transfers the numbers with dashes in the phone number (ie US format). When the car tries to dial she gets just part of the number eg 0123456789 might transfer as 012-345-6789 and dial as 012589 ... or something similar.
I have tried to go into keyboard locale and set it to UK.
I edited her google account to show in UK english (it was set US).
But the phone still hypenates every phone number. On the screen they read fine, it also has names in Surname / Forename order rather than forename / surname order.
Anyone any idea ?
See screenshot below for example
Same here
Hi, any joy with this? Having the same problem with my Nexus One and Audi A3 (2009).
Tried to reset the pairing and still no joy...
Thanks for any help in advance!
Not sure how to fix your problem.. I just want to comment "you got a badass car"
got anymore pictures of it?
I haven't got an answer to this but I do have the same problem. It happens with the Garmin Zumo on my motorbike and the Parrott CK6100 in my car.
It doesn't seem to affect calling though so I haven't worried too much about it.

I think it is a bug in the Audi software. I am in the US, but do not use dashes. The numbers transfer dashless into my Camry Hybrid.

No I don't think so , I don't have Audi I transfer contacts to my Pioneer car audio system and I get the same problem. But there is another thing about this is he mentioned they don't have problem with one phone so maybe there is some internal setting which is different to the other phone
I hope someone could figure out the problem I have the same problem with my phone !!!
Its the same on the Moto defy
Im having the same issue with my Defy and my Audi A3 09 bluetooth kit. Numbers on the phone are fine but when synced with the car display in US Format.
I think its an issue with 2.1 not the Audi software as I sent a contact from my phone to a mate of mine via SMS and they got it in US Format also.
And there's some not so good news over here...
(Sorry can't post the link yet, but google "US Number format android bluetooth" should get a listing with bluetooth carkit syncing in wrong number format with Nexus one.
Upshot is its sorted in 2.2
Loveing the Defy and my switch from iPhone.
