Ok guys,
I am using the Bluetooth adapter with my Z1. Everything is working fine. I have a Razr phone (cingular). I have to send each phonebook entry one at a time from the phone to the Z1. Isn't there a way to send over the whole phonebook all at once?

Please tell me how to do this if possible.

Thanks in advance.
Nick

I have the same problem of only being able to send one contact at a time. I have the T-Mobile MDA which uses windows mobile 5. Does anyone know a way around this? Thanks,

hey, how does the WM5 Tmobile phone work with the Z1. i have the 6700 which is basically the CDMA version of that phone. all made by HTC.

The bluetooth works fine. It pairs pretty quick with the avic, and i've had no problem with phone calls except for an echo (which was fixed with some volume tweeking and mic positioning). The only problem is the phone book transfer I mentioned, which I haven't been able to figure out yet.

I have had multiple problems with mine while sending over one contact at a time. The Z1 phone book listed the same name over 30 times! Each of these names had a different phone number though. For some reason it received a new number from the phone and each time it assigned it the same name. I have had to go in and change the name over and over again. It is ridiculous that you can't send over the whole phonebook at once. Pioneer should have included a better "keyboard" on the screen too. There is no "&" symbol and you can't move the cursor back without deleting. I think this product was rushed out before enough field testing was done.

I've noticed an odd issue with the callerid. I've had to edit all my numbers to begin with a "1" before it would identify the caller properly.

I have the same problem when you send numbers saved on the phone. If you send numbers that are saved in the sim then it works fine.

Any more inputs to the useability of the Bluetooth? I have a Parrot right now and it syncs everytime I turn on the car, I never have to "push" any contacts to it. I hate to "upgrade" to the Z1 if it's less user friendly (and a lot more money).

Am I to understand the the Z1 does not automatically sync with the phone (Cingular Razor)?

The RAZR will only allow transfer of numbers one at a time, and it's such an involved process you might be better off manually entering names and phone #'s. I'm considering buying a dummy phone just for transfers....I have a ton of numbers in my phone...

How do you send them over one at a time with WM5?

I'm currently using the Cingular 2125 (Identical to T-Mobile's SDA, sans Wi-Fi), and I was wondering what the Bluetooth visual interface looked like when you are looking at the phonebook or when you're receiving a phone call. Can you snap some pics of this or direct me to pics elsewhere? I was considering the Bluetooth adapter for my Z1 but now I'm gonna have to think about it more thoroughly before I proceed.

I cant even figure out how to transfer them individually..any help? Phone is Motorola MPx 220

I have a razr so these steps might be different but on the Z1 go into the phone menu and chose the option to accept business card or something like that, then the receiver goes into a waiting mode.

On your phone open the entry you want to send. Press your menu button and then chose "send." It's the last option on my phone. Chose Pioneer Navi (if you don't see it chose look for devices). That should be it, it will unpair the handsfree kit and connect in data mode, transfer the contact, then repair the handsfree side.

*edit* NM, I see your phone runs windows mobile...follow the instructions under section B where it says "On the Phone." You still need to put the avic in "transfer business card" mode first:

Thanks, I figured it out...guess there is no way to transfer the entire phonebook...that blows...

Ok I got my bluetooth adaptor hooked up.
My phone wont use all the features. motorola cingular, v551?
I want a new phone that will work well with the z1.
What do I get????

All I can do is dial and recieve calls which is pretty cool.
I can not transfer any data. not even one at a time.
I started manually entering the ones I use the most but my bissness contacts will take forever......

You don't have any "Beam Contact" or similar menu item when viewing a contact??

Thanks found out haw to send one at a time.
Didn't take too long

Has anyone tried syncing their phone with a BT enabled laptop, and then transferring from the latop?

This looks very straight forward with this approach. You should be able to highlight all contacts, and then send them via Bluetooth.

Anyone? Anyone?
