I though my next trick is to try a friends phone and see if that works. If it does I am going to input my sim card in his phone, send the phone book the put the sim back in my phone.
I think I have heard of that working. But you have to make sure you are doing things correctly with any phone, particularly #1 below.
I just went out to my truck and did a few transfers to refresh my memory. I have to do them one by one.
1. Is your phone registered with the BTB?
....It must be registered in order to transfer phonebook.
The phone will not reconnect to send name card and when you try it just says connection failed.
2. Are you trying to initiate a reconnect with "Pioneet BT Unit2" from your phone once your phone notifies you that it has disconnected? If so...Don't. Just mark a name card and send it. When you are in the phonebook transfer screen it does not say that you are disconnected on that screen. Only the phone registers that fact.
....This is supposed to happen and you do not have to initiate a reconnection at any point. Nor is there a "START" button on that screen like pg. 15 of the manual says there is.
3. Does your phone autoconnect when you turn the vehicle on?
....The phone has to be setup so that it does not ask for permission to connect/pair with the BTB and if yours is not setup that way then I would think any kind of transfer would fail. But if it does autoconnect then that would also mean that the phone is registered because the BTB searches for your phone on power up to connect with it.
If none of that helps you out with your phone and you swap your SIM out with a friend's phone make sure you register the friend's phone (which would look like you because of your SIM???).
You also did not say which method you were trying. It just sounds like you keep trying to reconnect the phone.
