Bluetooth connection with BMW 520i

I have I-mate , and updated to ver 1.52 , i try to connect it with the BMW car bluetooth , they can see each other but the car can not bound the i-mate , any body try this , or is there a patch tor that.
any help

I'd like to...if anyone has a BMW 520i to donate i'll be willing to have a go!!
Sorry i couldn't be more helpful....i just couldn't resist.

Yes There is a solution Ali!!
First backup your device
Goto www.clubimate.com
Register Your device
Then you would head to the support section
And download the latest ROM upgrade which is approximately 40 MB
Upgrade your device since the new ROM is said to have a new fix for bluetooth.
And if this works ........ Please Donate !! (Just kidding !!)

if i am not mistaken, the bmw carkit is the same as the parrot ck3000...if so you have a problem (for the moment anyway)
the parrot ck3000 works with the handsfree profile of a bluetooth phone, and the xda2,qtek2020,i-mate and all the other names for our machine only works the headset-profile....it is no use of trying to upgrade the carkit, mine has the latest software, and still does not work...the upgrade has to come from your pda, that has to support the handsfree profile...as i heard, there should be one comming out in the first few months...let's hope...

thanks for the help
i update the i-mate before from the clubimate but as you said no help at all it is the same problem
if problem solved will donate sample bmw logo from the company

To ali:
Simply: NO WAY. Nor will BMW support you in any way: You will not get (in written) even the list of supported phones. They just claim it's lack of Bluetooth standardization (Wich is not completly false...).
BTW, I've found the hard way that BMW cars only support Handsfree profile (No headset), BUT, not on every phone model, and not all features....
If you are interested:
1- Ericsson and Sony-Ericsson T68 models: They work on the handsfree part of the Bonding, but you will not get your phone contact list automatically passed onto the car kit phone system. You may pass contacts one at a time (tedious and time consumming).
2- SE P800: My biggest disappointement, they do not even pair reliably, no contact list at all, connection breaks with no apparent reason.
3- Siemens S-55: The BMW preferred one (Both Germans, I guess....), to no avail. Same behaviour as SE T68, and although the contact list is supposed to be passed automatically it doesn't. When tried manually, it stops at about 6 or 7 contacts and the phone hangs.
4- XDAII: The BT part is SO POORLY implemented, it should have been even removed from the reviews on the forums.

Anybody having problems with Parrot CK3100 handsfree?

Hi.
I am having problems with the mute and communication with a Parrot CK3100 handsfree. Either it doesn't mute the car music equipment nor receives the voice from the Niki, sometimes both sympthoms at the same time. Any idea about the reason?. I have upgraded the Parrot version to the latest one.
Thanks for the help.

There is know problem with Parrot handsfree and touch. I had a problem with htc touch dual and parrot MK6000. After contact with parrot support I got sollution. It works know. If you are stil looking for fix let me know I can search the link I got.
In short you doe following (remove first all pairings betwee your parrot and touch):
1. pair with some other bluethooth phone (I used nokia 6230).
2 disconnect first phone (shoot down bluethooth).
3. now pair with your touch.
Seems very rear but it works wel.

We have the CK3100 running the latest firmware.
The only problems we have had is the occasional ghost call when starting the car.
The kit will just say Call in progress, but nothing on the phone and it is not actually dialing.
A reboot of the phone fixes it.
I also have the same issue with My Kaiser witht he 3100 and the 3400 GPS in my car.

Same problem for me with parrot rytm'n blue
i'll try this solution...pairing with other model....

Thanks for the answers, will follow asmanm recomendations to see if it works and post results (fingers crossed...)

Hi.
IT WORKS with some restrictions!!
What I did:
1) I paired my old but reliable Nokia 6310i with the Parrot CK3100.
2) Switched off the Nokia BT.
3) Paired the HTC Dual and done.
Problems:
1) I got the ghost call when I enter into the car but after some minutes dissapears.
2) Sometimes gets crazy and hungs, mainly when I dial from the Parrot. If you dial from the phone, then no problems.
Hope it helps.

Hi .. I use the Dual with both CK3100 and LS3200. It works flawlessly. At first I had same issue with a ghost call just after connection: I solved it completely just activating the flag under [programs] --> SAP Settings.

problem with minikit
Hi all,
I have a problem with the dual touch and the parrot minikit.
- the connection between the two devices is ok
- when I'm called or I call someone, I hear very well my correspondants but they don't hear me, I have to use the mute mode and use my phone to continue the discussion.
I have already tested the solution purposed on this thread but it doesn't work aith my dual touch

same prob here
got touch dual w mk6100
it doesnt work pretty good.
the ghost call happens once in a while, but can be repaired w a call and hung. its fast.
sometimes i can hear some interferences when listening to music.
to make better calls i prefer to use the voice dialing from the dual. pressing the green button on remote control mk6100 starts the voice dialing in the dual. didnt try the mk6100 though.
it is very important the parrot disconect, i had some issues coz it didnt say "bye", pretty stupid but it is important.
i still have some issues w the 100ms stop music. (music stops every now and then for less than a second)
i gotta say they dont hear me pretty good. dont know why yet.
till searching on satparrot.com

I too am having trouble connecting with CK3100.
emailed HTC Australia who were less than helpful, with this :-
"Bluetooth should be universal or is marketed as universal although it is far
from the truth. Certain chipsets conflict or are incompatible with others. If a
device is not fully compatible it will not offer all features or possibly not
connect at all.
This is hardware related and not a software issue. This will not be effected by future update for the handset."
Parrot were more use, with this :-
"Hello sir ,
Indeed we notice several compatibility issues with ck3100 and htc touch dual
That's why we haven't listed this phone in our compatibilty list
Our technical engineers are currently on this issue inorder to find the solutions , when it be solved this phone will be listed at this adress below :
http://www.parrot.com/documents/en/support/ck3100_notes_new.txt
Moreover we have several feedbacks from our clients , who informed us that windows mobile 6 works better with ck 31OO software version
4.15
if you are intrested you can use 4.15 software version which is in enclosed mail"
Will try when I have time.

Bluetooth pairing problems on Infiniti/Nissan

Has anyone had any problems pairing their X1 with any Nissan or Inifniti cars? There seem to be some mumblings on the web about their cars and WM6 devices and I've had no luck getting it to work on my '08 G35. Thanks.

bluetooth pairing
i just checked the aproved phone list for your g35 and the x1 is not aproved by infiniti. only certain phones will link to our cars others will not

I have an 08 G35 and have no prob. pairing it with my car. How are you pairing this up with the car?

it also depend if you both have navagation or not

I don't have the navigation so I just click the phone button, tell it I want to pair a new device, and have my X1 start searching. At least now I know it can be done. Thanks for the reply

Well... I do have the navigation. So maybe the pairing process is a little different. But it should work though, it even allows me to download the whole phonebook into the car. Something my other phones in the past did not allow me.

Managed to solve this now.
Of course both Merc & SE didn't have any good solutions.... so had to continue googling & XDA-ing... This is what I did:
i.) Jetware, as I posted earlier has been removed.
ii.) I still had the SAP Profile addition downloaded from one of the forums in XDA on.
iii.) Change Registry setting:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Sys\COD
the default is 5898764 (Decimal) which is "Telephone (Smartphone)" which you would think would work. Changed to 5374476 (Decimal) which is a normal phone.
iv.) Restarted the phone.
v.) Started the pairing process from the car - failed as per before.
vi.) Started the pairing from the phone, and they work!!
Now, they pair automatically as how they would before....

this is how i got mine working with my pioneer deck.
here's the link to the SAP Profile he was talking about.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=997872&postcount=166
hope this works for you.

which PIoneer do you have?
I have the DEH-P5900IB and a BT adapter, and i can't get my X1 connect.
All my previous phones worked fine.
it looks like the X1 won't let me pair without passcode, and the radio says Error.
Do you mind explaining exactly how you did it?
Thanks

i have the DEH-790BT.
what i did was after i changed what i mentioned above, then i set my deck to be able to be noticed by other bluetooth devices, then added it through my X1. After I added it through my phone it said successfully connected on my deck and the phone displayed it connected as wireless stereo and hands free. now the only weird thing was it was trying to connect as both the wireless stereo and hands free which seemed to mess with the deck, so I had to turn off my ignition and turn my car back on for it to actually recognize the connection fully. oh and the passcode if you connect through the deck to phone like I did it should be default '0000' but i would check your manual just to be safe, and if your connecting through your phone to the deck (which i haven't tested so I don't know if it works) you can pick your own passcode, which i suggest just making 0000 or nothing.

I have a problem also with my HTC Touch HD (Blackstone)
I can pair with my Nissan Qashqai carkit but soun dis very bad, and the caller on the otherside doesn;t hear anything.
Strangly, but try, when during a call i switch from carkit to phone and back (using the options in my carkit/buttons on stearing wheel) everything is fine!
Checking the internet learned me that this is related to the bluetooth stack (or settings) in WM6.1 (and 6.5 also)
So does anybody have any idea how to solve this, maybe by registry changes or maybe by even "downgrading" the Bluetoorh stack to 6.0 or maybe even 5.x.
Maybe it is also possible to replace the complete MS stack for an other stack?

Samsung Galaxy SII / RSAP Bluetooth and VW BT Units

Hi,
has anyone had any experiences with trying to pair an SII (mine's running 2.3.4 stock) with an up to date Bluetooth phone module in a VW group vehicle. These support RSAP (GSMIII prep) as well as GSMII (lUHV/AD2P). I've sucessfully got the phone and BT module to pair but not always cleanly. When the handset is pairing via BT the signal bar display is replaced by the NO NETWORK (circle with diagonal slash) on the phone. If the pairing completes before this changes back to the normal signal bars then the BT module shows the phone as paired but with no network (even though the phone subsequently connects back to the service provider). Just wondered if anyone had experience pairing SII phones with VW group bluetooth modules... (I've actually replaced the module on my car with the latest D series one (5N0035730D).
Any feedback/experiences appreciated.

I have a Passat and it works like a charm with all used firmware version of GT-I9100 up to several 2.3.4 stock roms. I use currently I9100XXKG3-I9100XXKG3-I9100OXAKG3.
Just make you SG2 visible in Settings-Networks-Bluetooth and search with car's multimedia unit for a phone. Car display will show you a code like 1111222233334444 which you need to enter in SG2 when asked for it. Be quick otherwise it is canceled. If you have success you will be asked 2 (!) times to confirm permissions. Look in notification bar. One for connect and one for address book (Sorry if keyword are not fit 100%. I do this from my memory).
Works like a charm!

I also use my SII with great success in my Passat CC with the rSAP solution. The radio on the SII is supposed to turn off as the car has its own cellphone integrated and only "borrows" the SIM card over BT. My phone show two BT icons when it is working, and the phone in the car uses a few seconds to register on the network after it gained control over the SIM card.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

thanks for the feeback.. Sounds like the sort of thing I'm seeing... I see two BT symbols too... sometimes with two little arrows pointing inward during pairing.. Still though, i get NO NETWORK on the BT unit unless my phone comes back online before the pairing completes. It would appear the BT unit i have has two RSAP modes but I've no idea what the difference between them is (you can flip modes from the car menus). Just wish I could get this working reliably.I can't figure out why its being so problematic when everyone else's seems to work fine. I've uplifted the RNS 510 f/w to 2764 and have the latest BT D series unit available. I guess I can try an alternative simcard and handset to see if its any different... if anyone else has any advice it's always welcome...
thanks anyways.

[Q] BT for Galaxy S4 with BMW

After getting the Galaxy S4 it has been connected to our Pacifica (Chrysler) for BT hands Free. The same does not work correctly with BMW. The car sees the Galaxy but does not accept the pairing code. We know it is a general problem because friends have the same problem. An IPhone 5 works correct, but the Galaxy should work too. Any recommendation?

No problems here. i9505 works like charm with my E90.
Even my phonebook get syncd perfect and i can call contacts per BMW voice commands.

The only problem I have with my E92 with professional nav system is that the phone signal strenght indication on the car does not update when the phone screen is off. For the rest it works like a charm, contact photos included. You have to start the pairing procedure from the phone. The car does not see the phone even if you set it visible. Once you touch the car Bluetooth name on the phone Bluetooth settings everything works as it's suppose to.
Once you pair it can you cofirm if you have the same problem that I experience with the signal strenght indication?
Cheers
