Hi There,

I have the X920BT and and iPhone4 that I use with it. I also have the special iPod cable intended for use by the X920BT. When I connect the iPod via the cable, and choose to "Transfer Contacts", I get this dialogue screen that says "Use your phone to transfer Business Card" or something to that effect. I'm not sure what a business card is in this context. I will say that my contacts DO appear in my "Contacts" button, but the "Contacts" button is disabled for while, and only after quite some time (even after booting up) can I click it. How an I ensure that my contacts are in the X920BT's memory so it doesn't have to transfer them every time I boot up.

Anybody know about this? I appreciate your time and help!

Best,

Laz

I have the same issue w/the HTC EVO and it drives me insane. I dont know if the contacts are actually in there or is it reading from my device. I am sharing your same problem. Somebody, please update us with some knowledge

Once your iPhone is paired via bluetooth, contact transfer is automatic.

I can only view contacts after roughly 5 mins after start up. Is that normal?

How many contacts?

How many contacts?

I can see all contacts after 5 minutes, just like the OP. After starting my car, the "contacts" button and "transfer contacts" is darkened and cannot be used. It almost seems like it transfers all the contacts every time I start the x920bt, then deletes them OR its just reading the contacts every time and it is not saved in the system.

Is this normal that it takes awhile to load all contacts? or do you guys have access at start up?

Thanks,

Will

By design the unit syncs the contacts upon every startup but it shouldn't take more then 10-15 seconds to do so unless you have hundreds or thousands of contacts. Incidentally, do you guys have iPod cataloging on upon every startup? If so, turn it off once you have the iPod cataloged the first time. That info is stored on the unit and only needs to be cataloged when content is added or removed from the iPod.

How do you disable Cataloging? I tried looking through the manual again and i cant find it.

Its taking a lot longer than 30secs to sync contacts, almost 3-5mins. When I send ALL CONTACTS via bluetooth, it says update successful. So i tried turning off the car, and turn it back on, the same situation occurs. The wait is about 3-5 mins before the "transfer contacts" and "contacts" button is enabled. Once the "transfer contacts" icon is enabled, all my contacts are in the x920bt. It almost looks like its synced but not stored.

Just to eliminate one possibility, are your radio presets still there after the unit turns off and back on?

Search "catalog" in the PDF version of the manual.

Once again, how many contacts are we talking about?

It almost looks like its synced but not stored.

Also again, the unit does not stores the contacts.

Hey VBLUE42,

I appreciate your responses

We are talking roughly about 300 contacts.

When you say the unit does not store contacts, does that mean the unit syncs the phones contact every time? I was under the impression that once you transfer contacts via bluetooth it is stored.

It syncs each time your phone connects unless (i think) you choose to transfer your contacts by sending business cards or name cards. i do not believe the iphone has this ability.

fyi, the X710 and X910 do store your contacts to the memory.

On my 710bt no problem contacts transfer from my iphone4 but on my new 920bt it is not automatic contacts is not lit up and when i hit transfer contacts it says send a buisness card by operating the phone?

Does it work the same way on the X930BT? I see all the posts so far are regarding X920BT. Hoping the X930BT stores them.

I have the old Iphone 4 and the X930BT, the contacts are NOT stored. They are synced via bluetooth and accessible after sync is completed. I did the Nav., DVD., and phone mod so my contacts are accessible at all times.

What is the dvd and phone mod? I already bypassed the parking brake.
