Blue & Me issue?
« on: January 27, 2012, 06:51:50 PM »
Suddenly find that Blue & Me does not connect up when I start the car up. Worse, if I'm on the phone while starting the car (walking out of the house an getting in, etc), then the call just gets cut off, not by disconnection of the call, but the phone says the call is still connected only I can't hear anything and no-one can hear me

Not sure if the settings on my iPhone are supposed to say that Blue & Me is connected when the car is outside and turned off, and I am inside - so I dropped the connection on the iPhone (Forget this Device), then went back in the car and paired up. Looks like the pairing worked, keyed in the pin number and phone says it is copnnected

And nothing has changed! Tried to make a call using the steering wheel controls and voice, get a message "searching for connection" and then it gives up

Can't see anything in the Blue & Me handbook thatr looks like what I'm looking for - and just to make my week, the car was 2 years old LAST weekend so probably not covered by warranty

Any ideas, has this happened to anyone else? Phone has been working perfectly fine for last 18 months and I haven't changed either the Blue & Me software (probably old as I've never updated it) ever, nor the iPhone iOS in recent weeks

I had this happen on a brand new A500 apparently there was a recall notice on the B&M unit replaced under warranty now no problems. They did try telling me to update th software but it is not worth the hassle of even trying so check with the dealer. :thumb:

The unit is in the back and the back seats have to come out quick job for a pro

OK, that didn't work - guess that means a trip to the dealer (and a bill!). Service due in 750 miles (so late Feb at a guess) unless I get fed up. Something between the car and the phone make the phone think its paired, but the car doesnt think so

Along time since I originally set it up, seem to remember the phonebook copying across which hasn't happened here?

Why don't you try a different handset to be sure it's the phone?

Just my 2p.
