I just got a new phone and I am trying to connect it to the F90BT with bluetooth. My old phone was a Nextel I880 and it connected with no problems. I deleted that phone from the F90BT and now it will not connect to the new phone. The new phone is a Samsung Instinct S30. Do I need to reload my F90BT backup files and start over? Oh and this is happening on both of my F90BT units.

Check BT setting on the phone. On my nstinct the BT was off by default. I had to turn BT on and then set it to always visable.

Already tried that. Bluetooth is turned on and set to "Always Visible" and the AVIC is set as a "Trusted Device" but still no connection.

Have you checked to see if you have the latest BT software on the AVIC. Even if yoiu do maybe reloading it might help.

I finally got it to connect. I had to do it from the phone. I set the AVIC to Connect from Phone and then searched for devices on the phone.
