Of course I figured it out. I had to good sense to ask you! Just like the guys at work.....

F-series model: F90BT Phone make/model: LG VX8350 Ease of connection: Easy connection Phone book transfer: Good contacts transfer, but askes for "Bluetooth PBAP Requested by Pioneer Nav. Accept?" every time you connect. If you do not open your phone and accept this the connection does not function properly (it took me a while to figure this out). So if you don't mind opening your phone and pushing a button every time you get in the car, this phone works well. Otherwise, not so much.... Sound quality: Seems fine. Comments: The specific problem only happens after the first outgoing phon

Update: I just got off the phone with LG and they say that this cannot be changed on the LG VX8350. The explaination was that the AVIC was asking for a service that the LG phone cannot provide (the PBAP). I don't fully understand this, but it seems that if this is true, in order to have the AVIC and VX8350 work correctly, you must open the phone and accept the request for Bluetooth PBAP every time you get in the car. Looks like I'm looking for a new phone as this is unacceptable for me. One of the advantages of Bluetooth is being able to leave the phone in my pocket or briefcase.

Good call thanks, that seems to work. For those of you using the vx8350 and are having the same issues, the question now becomes if there is a way to have the phone automatically accept the "Bluetoot PBAP requested by Pioneer Nav.". If we can get the phone to do that, then the PITA of having to manually accept this everytime we connect would be eliminated and everything will work ok. Any thoughts on how to get the phone to do that? Thanks for the help! CHILI

My phone connects well and makes the first call perfectly, but on all subsequent calls the sound is transferred to my phone (nothing from the car speakers). When I disconnect the bluetooth connection and reconnect I get my one good phone call and then its back to silence on all subsequent calls again. I've searched the forum and cannot find any examples of this problem. I've called Pioneer and other than suggesting that I try the older bluetooth software problems (which I did and didn't fix the problem), they suggested that I send in the head unit for them to look at. I really don't want t
