Before I bought the Nokia Headset I tested it at the shop and everything seemed to work fine. The MDA found the Nokia ingoing and outgoing calls worked fine.
Back at home I´ve noticed that the Nokia is turned off. Apparently it only accepts itself as connected to the MDA 2 while I am having a call (the Nokia LED is blinking white). The other time it is blinking green which means that it searches for other devices. The instruction says that it turns itself off after 10 minutes if it doesn´t find anything.
Has anybody an advise to fix this problem? Are there any patches? Will there be any patches or updates at all? All the hotlines seem not to know anything. Great product but very bad support.

I recently bought the nokia hs3w too and am having the same problem bonding it to my xda2. It keeps shutting off after ten mins. Have you found a solution to the problem yet? Since I went and bought two of the headsets I would be extremely grateful if anyone has a solution. Cheers

I have the same problem. It goes to stand mode and you can not reconnect.
Great product but not for the XDAII
Do you have a problem with your bluetooth on your Samsung device working correctly with your vehicles bluetooth? Does it get disconnected? Does it not even pair? Does the problem seem to be occurring with the phonebook being downloaded? If you are encountering this or any other bluetooth related problems with your Samsung device. Please post the following like below:

I'm in contact with a software engineer at Samsung, we need to get this issue PROPERLY resolved. This issue is not with our car manufacturer (as Samsung like to put the blame on them), but instead with Samsung. Numerous models of their phones do not successfully pair or only temporarily hold a pair with vehicle installed bluetooth kits. I believe this to be a problem with the Bluetooth Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP) on Samsung devices specifically as all other model phones successfully pair with my vehicle.
Please post in this thread if you are encountering or encountered any issues!

Might be possibly fixed though.
I have 2011 ford fusion but I think the problem is from the cars not supporting the phones I had this happen with a droid x a Samsung fascinate a htc Thunderbolt and an iPhone 4 since I got the car a few weeks ago. Ya im a phone addict so what. anyways now it's happening with the charge exact same issue with each phone and ford has said with each one that it is the sync software that is picky about the phonebook.

Very odd. You have the exact same model year as me. Do you have iDrive?

3 other M3 owners complain of the same thing. How did you get it to work?
Did you have any initial issues pairing it? There is another member on the BMW forum that has encountered problems but kinda fixed it.

No major issues here: 2011 Infiniti G37x
The only quirk I've noticed, but I've noticed it with all phones I've tried connecting, is that the Handset Phonebook doesn't download until you do one handset phonebook voice search. Could just be Infiniti.
No problems pairing with my pioneer avic z head unit.

BMW - Samsung Charge Phone Book BlueTooth Workaround
Fix for this is counterintuitive. When you start your phone or restart bluetooth go to Settings>Applications>Running Services. Look for the Service "BluetoothPbapService". tap it, then hit stop. This removes it from the list. The phone pairs and uploads the phone book without problems until you either stop and restart bluetooth or turn your phone off. I am looking for a developer who can automate this process with an app without rooting the phone. Hope this helps.

Yep, just started experiencing it.

OK, so here's what I've figured out. My initial response regarding the 2010 M3 being perfect was premature, though I have figured out where the issue lies. When my Charge connects to iDrive the first time, everything works, as it holds the connection and the phone book downloads perfectly. It's on repeated reconnections when I get back in the car that the signal will drop after a few minutes. Only when I reset the Bluetooth radio within the Charge does it again hold the signal. My guess is that the Charge is caching some information that it shouldn't be, which is causing it to disconnect after a reconnection. Again, if the Bluetooth radio within the Charge is reset, the connection always holds perfectly.
Hope this helps.

Drops off all the time on the phone. Intermittantly downloads phonebook and dial history.. The audio portion works "most" of the time but also drops off. System is called "handsfreelink" in the car.
IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS!
Guys. Follow Doc's post in disabling the service PBAP in your Running Services. This has fixed the problem for me as of now. No problems with connections. You must do it each time you power cycle the phone though
For rooted users:
go to /system/app/bluetoothpbap.apk and rename to bluetoothpbap.apk.bak. reboot your phone and pair again with your car.
This worked PERFECTLY for me, it works exactly the way it should now and the phonebook/everything is all good.

Hi everyone, I just bought a HTC Car V100 second hand. It should work perfectly the seller said. But I have no manual for it so I can't deal with some things. Someone could tell me where can I download a manual for it? Or someone could load up one? My problem is the phone disconnects the speaker after a few minutes. But just in the car. It seems (for me!) if the wifi is on and searching, disconnects the thing. If it does I have to turn off the bluetooth on the phone turn off the speaker than back again both and than the two thing connect again. Sometimes I have to search with the phone the device and pair them again. But when I tried at home and in work it was on all day and work perfectly! Because is second hand I have no manual for it. I tried to press some buttons on the speaker and now I cant use the voice dialling neither. I don't want to throw in the bin but if I cant work out what is the problem I will. I have a HTC OneS phone and so fare I'm satisfied with the HTC. I would be very pleased if someone could help me to solve this problem. Thx. Peter
Ask Google.

I have a EKIY KK5 and it seems like my headunit needs to be powered on for about 3-4 minutes for CarLink to able to connect to AA on my Pixel 7.
Otherwise it just sits on "Connecting" unless I close and reopen it after some time has passed
Does anyone know a fix for this?
Seller gave me an update that isn't working.
It could be the other way round.
When I drive rental cars with Android Auto, my Motorola G41 connects in 20-40 seconds, My Samsung Galaxy A52 takes ages (minutes) to connect and sometimes even doesn't.
Sorry. Not an answer, but perhaps a clarification.
I don't believe so, because when I restart the headunit, I have to wait the ~3 minutes for it to be "ready". But once it connects the first time, I can close the app and it will reconnect quickly.
My S20 FE doesn't connect all together.
They gave me an update from November, I was just looking to see if someone had a newer APK or has the same problem.

I can confirm this: my backup phone runs Pixel Experience as a custom ROM, so basically plain Android. While my new phone runs Xiaomi's MIUI and that one connects and disconnects afterwards directly, no idea why....
It was working shortly when I went down the hill from wintersport area, but after I got back to the car. All of a sudden it would not work anymore: so could be related to Android Auto update, but also just be the specific phone having issues with Android Auto. Xiaomi is one of the brands, which has a lot of issues with Android Auto and it always takes a long time for either Google or Xiaomi to fix it.
