hoonu Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 I'm having issues trying to send my contact list to my F90BT. Has anyone been able to transfer theirs? Also... when I make a call with the phone directly, the music stops as expected, but does not return after I hang up. Any ideas? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bashed1 Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 I have the same phone and AVIC unit, hoonu. I was finally able to transfer my contacts by manually disconnecting the phone (on the "phone settings" screen), then I transferred each one manually from the Q9C via Bluetooth (Contacts-->choose a contact-->Menu-->"send via Bluetooth"). After doing this, manually reconnect your phone on the F90BT then go through the contact transfer steps again - it will magically load them into the F90 at that time. (I know; makes no sense to have to disconnect your phone in order to transfer the contacts, but that's the only way I could get it to work.) Don't get real excited when your contacts do appear in the F90, however, as some of mine don't appear under the right person. Plus, you can't even tell which number is which (office v. cell; etc.) when you have more than one number assigned to one contact as all the stupid silhouettes look the same. (Why can't they just say "Office" or "Cell" instead of having the same generic-looking picture for each one?? This is technological progress??) I too am experiencing the loss of music when I hang up from a call; only way I can get it back (without rebooting the whole system) is to (once again) manually disconnect/reconnect the phone. In addition, there's no "incoming call" screen that appears on my F90, so I have to reach for my phone to answer an incoming call. All of these phone/Bluetooth shortcomings in the F90 are very disappointing. See the topic I just started in this forum about how to contact Parrot direct about this.

Yep, that too...dial pad comes up on the F90, and I can enter phone numbers on it, but nothing happens when I punch the green dial symbol. In addition to contacting Parrot direct, I've also emailed Pioneer support about all these phone issues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hoonu Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Are any of you guys running the Windows Mobile 6.1 update? I just read about it on the EverythingQ forums and I'm going to give it a try once my battery is fully charged (req. for the update to run). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I might have to try it out before hand tho unless there are some reports back on that model of phone. Some guys in my office have one so I might be able to test it on my own.

bashed1 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Let me know if you find a Sprint phone that works with the F90BT. I'm very disappointed that my Q9c won't work with it. Odd thing is, I've used it with the Parrot CK3100 handsfree kit and it worked perfectly...which tells me Pioneer screwed up the implementation of the Parrot chip in the F90.

bashed1 Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 **UPDATE** -- Got the Q9C working on my F90BT!! See separate thread at: http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic. ... 563#111563 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kdoll36 Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Hey, I work for a cell phone retailer, and I get to try LOTS of smartphones out, and even so with my D3 I had befor I got the 900BT, a lot of them would have some problems with pioneers product. But, I installed JetWare from jetwaremobile.com on all the phones, and it rededicates the bluetooth functionality of the phone and I haven't ever had a problem since then. I strongly suggest ya'll try it, and its free for 30 days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bashed1 Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Yes, kdoll, I've heard of Jetware - my workaround for the Q9C (detailed in separate thread; link in my above post) works great for this phone and it's free for life. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bashed1 Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Plus Jetware doesn't work on this Windows Mobile Smartphone. Even better point.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kdoll36 Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Hmm, odd, cuz I've tested it with the original Q's, and the newer Q9C and Q9M and it worked. But oh well, just tryin to help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BadBoyRipper Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 So I followed your instructions and sent all of my contacts via bluetooth, and only 16 of my numbers actually made it into the Navi. Were you able to get all of your numbers to come through? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
