Ok I'm really frustrated i installed Jet on my treo 750 lastnight and it worked great. I finally got some rest lastnight :) . Then when I get in the car this morning I'm back to the drawing board the with a connection error. I haven't registered Jet yet, but it's still installed Do I have to register for it to continuing working past the first sync? and or does anyone have any details on how Bluetooth/Jet needs to be configured to allow the phone to sync consistantly?

 

Thanks for the help

Thanks for the info, I actually went out for lunch this afternoon after registering Jetware and it was working flawlessly. I have an hour commute home today so I'll give it a workout on the way. I hope the delima is over for me.

 

For humor though I did call Pioneer this morning to ask if there was a known issue (prior to finding this forum) and the tier 1 rep said smartphone devices do not work period. He suggested and I quote " the Motorola RAZR works really good and it's a really cool phone you should check it out it has a lot more features than the smartphones do!" I thought about asking him if it would integrate with the group policy setup on my business MS Domain and allow for Direct Push of email from my MS exchange server as well snycing my calendar so that my assistant can keep my meetings in order, but I resisted after all he was only tier 1 and probably answered every question with return the unit back to the dealer, or the device is not supported.

 

The true tech support is right here thanks to everyone for your help and posts without this website my AVIC would already be on the open box table and Circuit City!

ratso, You may have got it by now, if not, make sure your phone firmware is uptodate then, keep trying over and over. Mine just connected after 4-5 tries, registered and is auto-connecting fine. However, auto-dial listens but the BTB-200 is not relaying the replies. But, if you watch the phone and answer yes, the phone will dial and the call will connect properly with mic and speakers auto-muting.

Kind of frustrated...

 

Just installed the BTB-200 and I can't get my Palm Treo 750 to connect as a BT phone. (For some reason, it connects as a bluetooth audio player just fine.)

 

Has anyone had any luck at all connecting a Treo (Windows Mobile 5) to the new bluetooth unit?

 

Yes, I have my Treo 700W connected to my AVIC Z-2. I was able to transfer my phone book to the unit, but when I am talking on the phone for more then a couple of min., it just cuts out and the BT symbol becomes crossed off as if it just shut off by itself. I actually posted about this problem yesterday, so I'm glad to hear its something the engineers are working on.

I did solve the problem but the solution was weird.

 

Thinking I had a defective BT head and having Pioneer support confirming it, I purchased another. Same problem!! This made no sense! It connects but no sound, only static. What are the chances of having 2 bad units? Then, by mistake, I plugged in the bus cable intro the wrong socket (instructions say, blue end to blue socket) and it WORKS! What is this? In fact both units worked and not only did it connect as before but now I had sound. Pioneer support confirms that some have been assembled incorrectly!

 

I can barely beleive this!

 

Any one else run into this? BTW, I was unimpressed with Pioneer support.

ratso, Glad you got the phone to work. Can you please confirm that you are only hearing the sound of the call but also the voice prompts for Voice Dialing? In other words, can you use Voice Dialing with your Blue Tooth without looking or touching the phone?

That Jetmobile software works well on my Cingular 2125.

 

Installed it, did the phone pairing, shows connection error, but it will re-connect eventually, registered the phone.

 

No contacts. hrm... installed jetmobile software and everything now works on first go. There's an option to send all contacts rather than 1 by 1.

 

Everything but Voice Dial works.

Posted May 04, 2007 · 02:12 UTC#61

I just purchased the jet software as well today for the same reasons as everyone else. However, my avic requires a few attempts before actually connecting. Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

 

Secondly, on my treo 700w my bluetooth icon is displayed as being off (dark blue color) as opposed to (white color) when it is connected. The wierd thing is when my avic does connect to my treo, the treo still displays as being disconnected. What's going on?

Hey everyone,

After reading this thread it appears that a few people have been using the 3rd party software successfully with thier PPC phones. My question is, has anyone been successful with the Cingular 8525 on WM5? I tried the 3rd party software and still can't get my bt200 to find my phone. I've also tried this process with my global phone with the same results. So if anyone has been able to use thier 8525 with the bt200 can you please post up how you accomplished this.....

 

Thanks!

Im having caller ID issues with my 8125 and WM6. The Jetware software is working properly, but when someone calls, the D3 still shows as "unknown" even though I've transferred my whole phonebook to the unit. I've tried with the caller ID function checked and unchecked in the Jetware software. Anyone got any ideas?

 

Kryptonite

 

Ps ( and yes, the call is coming from a phone number in the phonebook; for all you wise guys out there...)

So, will this deal work with my chocolate phone.

 

No, I'm not gay! :P

Posted May 08, 2007 · 05:48 UTC#65

Samsung T809 - Cingular

 

everything works great...however

 

i need to try about 3 times to connect. it's even registered...my brother's phone connects at every 1st try...

 

how does it not connect with mine at 1st try??

 

does anybody have this kinda of situation?

Posted May 11, 2007 · 15:46 UTC#66

I have the D3 with the BTB200 paired with the Verizon Motorola Q. I've had many of the problems mentioned on this string, ie pairing problems, phone book transfer. I worked with Pioneer support to get around these issues and now for the most part it works great, but smartphones and the Pioneer Bluetooth modules are known to have problems. It's the Windows O/S that gives the BT problems. With the "Q" I can do most functions accept voice dial. This sucks since this is one of the reasons you get a handsfree device, so you don't have to fiddle with the phone in the first place. I hope that firmware fix comes soon.

Just downloaded the JetWare and got my 8125 to work. Just have to figure out how to upload my phonebook now. THANK YOU!

Posted May 15, 2007 · 18:22 UTC#68

I also have a Motorola Q but it's the Sprint version. My voice dialing(and everything else) works great. I even get my personalized ringtone from the phone as the ringer on the D3.

Posted May 17, 2007 · 08:20 UTC#69

I just got my D3 hooked up with the CD-BTB200 Bluetooth Adaptor. Pairs just fine with my Blackberry 8100 Pearl as well as the phone book transfer. Only problem is the caller id that it will not recognize callers wen they call in? I am not sure if it is the 1 that is not added to my entries in my phone book. Gonna experiment a bit and see what happens. Anyone have this problem? Or a fix?

Romeo, did you test Voice Dialing?

Not yet but i'll try it tonight. Anyone fix the unknown caller issue yet?

Posted May 17, 2007 · 23:40 UTC#72

I hooked my bluetooth up to my Motorola Q windows based phone...Works Perfect.

Posted May 18, 2007 · 10:27 UTC#73

Is there any way (on the D3) to modify an entry to differentiate between Home, Cell, etc?

 

On my Treo, I have them listed as such for each entry. But when transferred to the D3, nothing differentiates them, and I haven't found a way to manually edit on the D3 to differentiate.

Posted May 22, 2007 · 13:12 UTC#74

Just an update...using the JetWare file extension I was able to get my Cingular 8125 to pair up and use all functionality (phonebook, caller id, ring tone, etc)

Posted May 22, 2007 · 22:38 UTC#75

Upate on the 700P... i got mine todo everything but transfer the phonebook (Everything i tried that is)

 

ON the treo:

-Visiblity: Visible

-Bluetooth: On

 

Goto "Setup Devices" then "Trusted Devices"

 

It will discover the BTB200, select it and enter the '0000' code

 

Goto the AVIC, under the bluetooth "Functions menu" go:

-Phone connect, search

 

It will find your phone and connect

 

Then hit BACK

 

Goto register phone and press and hold the top space... it will save your phone

 

 

Done... just need a fix for the phonebook
