CD-BTB200 & Bluetooth Phone Compatibility Guide

[trol1374]

 

For what the unit costs, this BT deserves a class action suit. Most of us have partial use of the features & it amazes that Pioneer does not even bother to say what phones are intended to work with it. This tells me it was not even tested. What a deal!

 

Ummm, wouldn't this be more of a issue with the phones/providers not the BT? Some phones work just fine, some don't. Some providers lock up features, some don't. I don't see how Pioneer could possible check every existing phone from all the providers.

Does anyone have an update on what phones actually allow you to hear voice dialing prompts over the car speakers?

 

I have Verizon with a VX-9900 (EnV) and you can't hear the voice prompts.

Has anyone gotten the voice prompts to work with a Verizon phone? My call to Pioneer support resulted in them telling me this feature does not work with US phones, only European, which is difficult to believe. Replaced the LG with a newer phone (the W385), but to no avail. Both work perfect with my bluetooth headset. I have 7 days to replace the new phone if there is a compatible one out there.
