Cell Phone Model May Cause Bluetooth Freeze

I'm having bluetooth issues with my Verizon LG Dare. So I tried pairing the unit with my wife's Motorola cell phone and it works flawlessly. Then I paired my LG phone again and it worked fine for many calls until I got a call getting into my car while the unit was still booting. A faceplate reset would not correct the issue.

 

When I returned home, I reconnected my wife's cell and again it worked perfectly. Then I dropped her connection and reconnected my LG. Its working again now too for the moment.

 

So I'm wondering, has anybody else tried pairing different phones with the unit? If so, do some brands or models seem to have fewer problems than others? Comments?

I would assume that would be case as BT stack implementations vary from vendor to vendor. In general BT software in the unit handles different scenarios(though all are as per spec implementation may not be same). That is the case with many hardware( like memory not compatible with certain motherboards).

 

As per Customer Service rep only iPhone 3GS has known issues, so please call and let them know the issue you are having. If you complain, then they may fix it later firmware versions.

Since Pioneer tech support asked me to try pairing another phone my problem has gone away! Adding the second phone to the system has in some borderline mystical way corrected the problem with my LG Dare connecting. Everything in the unit is working fine for me. I paid $400 bucks for my unit with iPod cable, so put me down in the happy camper column! :mrgreen:
