For what the unit costs, this BT deserves a class action suit. Most of us have partial use of the features & it amazes that Pioneer does not even bother to say what phones are intended to work with it. This tells me it was not even tested. What a deal!

Ummm, wouldn't this be more of a issue with the phones/providers not the BT? Some phones work just fine, some don't. Some providers lock up features, some don't. I don't see how Pioneer could possible check every existing phone from all the providers.

Does anyone have an update on what phones actually allow you to hear voice dialing prompts over the car speakers?

I have Verizon with a VX-9900 (EnV) and you can't hear the voice prompts.

Has anyone gotten the voice prompts to work with a Verizon phone? My call to Pioneer support resulted in them telling me this feature does not work with US phones, only European, which is difficult to believe. Replaced the LG with a newer phone (the W385), but to no avail. Both work perfect with my bluetooth headset. I have 7 days to replace the new phone if there is a compatible one out there.

Shackett,

I have the new Palm Centro and I'm getting the same problem when using the D3 to search for the phone.

When I use the "Connection Open" option and search for the D3 from the phone, after I put in the 0000 passcode, the phone tells me it's connected and paired, but the D3 keeps saying "pairing" forever.

Have you been able to get yours paired?

My AVIC-D3 with BTB-200 continues to give a "Connection Error" everytime I try to connect using my new Palm Treo755p from Sprint.

 

I know Jetwaremobile.com has the Windows Mobile 5.0 software, but is there anything out there for the Palm OS?

 

I've got to find a way to get this thing to connect.

I had a Q for a while and it worked perfectly with the D3. Even plays your selected ringer from the phone through the speakers when your phone rings.

I e-mailed pioneer asking tem if my moto Q would sync up to there bluetooth adapter this is what they sent back

Just got the z. Got my iphone to autoconnect and make and recive calls. I have not tried any of the other features yet. Has anyone had trouble with the volume the calls come in very faint and I have the volume all the way up in settings. Mabe I should just stick with the onstar phone built in the car I have hooked up with verizon.

the other person can hear me just fine, i cant hear them over my speakers. Maybe the bose system has something to do with this?

I would troublshoot the mic first, you can probably plug it into a mic jack on your pc and use the recorder utility to see if it pics up your voice.

if you have a different phone, I would try another one and see if that as well.

I guess I was lucky, I just went out to my truck at 2am, my intent was to just leave it until the morning, but my leatherman was in the console so I just connected everything and ran the mic wire, in less than 10 min. I was testing it.

EDIT sorry, I misread your last comment, they can hear you but you cannot hear them. ok, sorry for the misunderstanding. I have the opposite problem, the volume is a bit too loud for me even if I turn it all the way down. I am sure I can play with the settings and get it right.

Yea I thnk it has to do with that stupid onstar apadter for some reason.

What about the LG Shine VX8700??? Im havin mad trouble tryin to transfer my phonebook over. Anybody had success in this and if so... HOW did u do this???

What about the LG Shine VX8700??? Im havin mad trouble tryin to transfer my phonebook over. Anybody had success in this and if so... HOW did u do this???

the trick for me with my blackberry was that I had to disconnect the bluetooth first, then I went to my phonebook and initiated the transfer.

bluetooth is actually several different profiles, the headset profile, data transfer, music streaming, etc. the headset profile used for answering calls cannot do data transfer.

Man I dunno what else to try. I even tried to send my contacts through VIA Bluetooth and I can't. It keeps askin me to pair and then connect. Its a never ending process. There is a dude on here wit the same phone but he never come on no more.
