Bluetooth not working in BMW iDrive-System - HD7 General

I can't connect my HD7 with my hands free system in my BMW. It just won't connect. Anyone could make it work?

Mine won't work in my ford sync system, ironically made by Microsoft as well. Lol

Worked on mine and in the MINI...
Go into the settings on the car, click pair new device, it will ask you to search for the car, search on the phone, and pair them.
Once they are paired it takes a while but your contacts and text messages will be on the car.

Works ok in my Toyota

Thats useless information unless your Toyota has BMW iDrive System.

Mine has successfuly paired with the 7er iDrive System. The only thing you have to know is the bluetooth code of your car. You have to set the car to the pairing mode and on the phone set up the search for the bluetooth devices. You should see the bluetooth headset device named as the last 7 digits of your VIN CODE e.g. mine is: DS79xxx. Then click on the phone on this device and enter the bluetooth code of the car (its somewhere in the manual) and thats it. It takes some time, till the contacts are synchronized with the car and it depends on how many contacs you have in your phone. I have almost 1000 contacts, so it takes couple of minutes.

I tried couple times. I put the i-drive system in pairing mode and I can find the headset in the phone, but when I tap in the headset the connection fails.

Will be pairing my 3 series today and report back.

Ironically it was more helpful than your post

I appreciate all the posts about your bluetooth experiences. I had no problem pairing my HD7 to my Plantronic Discovery 925. The problem is with the BMW system. It worked fine with my previous phones (TP, TP2, HD2, HD2 Android). I'm glad to know that it is working on other BMW, Mini & Toyota (I also own a Toyota, but it doesn't have bluetooth). It means that it will work for me too, I'm just need to keep trying, and I'll do so after work tonight.

It also works fine in my w204 Class, w212 Eclass and 3rd Gen Prius.
Also works with Parrot Bluetooth and BMW non idrive Bluetooth in E92 3er.
You dont state what model of BMW or version of iDrive you have which may help?
As for you Homer.web posting similar info about your 7er would be more use than the unhelpful comments that you have come up with so far. Grow up.

It's a 2006 M5. I don't know the iDrive version.

I was able to successfully pair my HD7. I tried first thing after starting the car (I don't know if that made the difference), but it finally worked.
Thank you everyone.

I dont think, that it make sence if somebody asks particular question, answer something totaly different. How would you like the answer from the BMW service if you call them, that you have e.g. problem with CD player in your BMW car and they would reply: We tried it on Mercedes Benz car and it works OK.
So: if the topic is so specific, its good habit to answer specific post to that topic.
If you have an urge to tell the world, that you successfuly paired your phone with the bluetooth headset, start the new general topic called "Pairing HD7 with headset/car/..."

I paired mine easily the first time. Working perfectly.

stream stereo bluetooth without A2DP or any accessories

Has anyone been able to play music on their car's speakers through bluetooth specifically lexus with navigation, LEXUS GX 470 with tilt?
I've tried lots of things to get this working and the only thing that works is the calls but the music doesn't stream over.
Ive read and read everything on here the only advice i see going around is buying more accessories, I want to make this work
without having to buy any bluetooth adapters like jabra or jawbone, i have so many different accessories that i can build a spaceship
and don't want or need anymore. Thanks in advance
Does your lexus support A2DP? If not, then no, it won't connect for streaming stereo audio. Looking at the Lexus web site implies that only HFP is supported.
You can look at the JETWare BT Extention driver.
Tried a lot of different things and hasn't worked isnt there a way to make the phone transmit the music as if i was on a phone call, there has to be software out there that does this.
nope.. havent tried it with that.. but works perfectly with a BMW 528 i flawlessly
( check the kaiser pic thread to see what i mean )

EDIT------
Oh that you actually own the BMW, you could of just linked me to your post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2275428&postcount=145
That's a pretty big thread which would have been hard to find without the exact name.
BMW and lexus are different cars, your probably has A2DP (does it?) where as mine doesn't. Anyway your car is newer.
Check your car user manual. If it says Bluetooth 2.0 (or at least 1.2) with A2DP, then the answer is YES; otherwise, you're wasting your time.
I have RX350 and its bluetooth is 1.0; not sure if Toyota are so generous that they install bluetooth 2.0 w/ A2DP on GX470
You know its funny if you google "LEXUS GX 470 bluetooth a2dp" without the quotes this thread is #2 & #3 right after the lexus website, and you responded literally 2 minutes ago, google sure is working fast.
I don't have the manual, and i don't think it has A2DP anyway.
I'm going to try 2 more programs let you know how it works out.

i was just about to post this..
he's on the money here!
Well Blue music didnt work. But i did hear my music ringtones. Bummer. All I got left is Chartcross Bluetooth Audio Router.
http://www.teksoftbluemusic.com/
Bluemusic is the only software available that offers Voice-over-Bluetooth combined with 100% phone support. People all over the world are now familiar with the expression "Music is wireless!". Starting with version 2.0, not only music, but anything related to AUDIO playback goes WIRELESS with Bluemusic! Make sure you get your own copy today!
It should work according to their website quoted from FAQ page.
3. Will BlueMusic work with the A2DP profile of my Stereo Bluetooth Headset?
BlueMusic is not intended to be used with stereo A2DP headsets, but with the mono bluetooth model headset. The reason is that with the stereo headset you can listen to music from your mobile device by default, but with the cheaper, mono headsets used only for phone calls you can't. So BlueMusic only offers missing functionality for that type of headsets and would be useless for the stereo A2DP. Still, feel free to download the trial version and try it on your device.

Bluetooth stops/crashes when connected to Car kit

Hi,
When my phone is connected to my car kit (Opel/Vauxhaul UHP) bluetooth sometimes stops randomly. I can turn bluetooth on again with the commmanager and everything is working again. But it can hapen again after a few minutes.
Does anyone have this problem to or even better a solution?
I allready tried all the different Radio Roms, but this didn't solve my problem.
Well with mine i have some hickus but it just happpends once a while.
Most irritating about Diamond and BT in my opinion is that wa have no equalizing for it. and the sound setup from the begining is horrible.
Asked here if anyone has a solution before but none replied.
But as far 2 your problem no. And i use a Pioneer system in my car.

I've a JVC head and my bluetooth has no problem.
I have a Honda Accord with handsfree built in and I too am having problems. The phone and car both agree that a connection has been made but when i use it to either ring out or receive a call the radio mutes and when receiving the ringing tone sounds over the car speakers but I can`t hear the caller except on the phone which isn`t very useful. Would a ROM or radio upgrade help or is it just a compatibility problem

Thanks Mauser. I tried Jetware as you suggest and I`m afraid it didn`t help in fact I think it crashed the handsfree system in the car like you. This is the final nail in the coffin for my Diamond. I just can`t get used to it so it`s off to Ebay with it.

I am very pleased with my Diamond... I would sooner put my car on eBay than my Diamond
Did you try to check almost everything on in the advanced settings of Jetware? I have also limited the phonebook sync to max 5 entries to debug and on the site of Jetware there wat a fix for Opel car kits.
Keeping my fingers crossed, but until now I haven't experienced any bluetooth crashes.

Thanks again Mauser. I tried various settings but without any success, I think the phone is just not compatible with the Honda. Having said that I don`t have much luck with bluetooth at all on the phone. More often than not It just won`t detect other bluetooth devices and when it does it won`t send or receive files so it`s time for it to go and I can go back to a trusty Nokia
Problems here with BT connection to car kit, too. I'm using the built-in car-kit of an Audi A4 (standard one not that with navigation, remote SIM, etc). I've noticed the following issues:
- when I try to make a call, the CD is cut off but NOTHING is heard in the car speakers UNTIL the other party answers the call (and then I start the conversation). No ringing tone, no nothing. I cannot hear the busy tone, or network failure/congestion tone and this is annoying since I have to keep an eye on the phone to see what's happening. I found myself checking the phone when, after calling someone, nothing happened and in fact I got a busy tone and the call ended.
- sometimes, when I receive a call, the CD stops playing but when I answer nothing is heard from the car speakers but only from the phone (as davemazo said also).
- when I receive a call, I hear in the car speakers a "standard" calling tone, not the ringtone I have assigned for that contact
I have to mention that with any Nokia I had before (and still have one as a second phone), these problems do not exist. I know there is a compatibility between Audi factory installed car-kits and Nokia, but BT is a standard and most of the functions should be supported despite the phone model/type. I've tried also with an iPhone and it's working great, as my Nokia do. I don't understand why it is like this with the Diamond. In fact, I think it is not related to Diamond itself...it's doing like this with ANY Windows Mobile device I've tried in the past (Orange C600, Samsung I600).
Are there any solutions for this? A CAB, a new BT radio, a software, anything?... I don't want to buy a new BT car-kit and try with different models until I find something compatible
Thank you for any info/tip

Hi Rapier,
I also had a SPV C500, MDA Compact, Qtek 8500, Samsung I600, HTC Touch Dual and now the Diamond. The only one which gave me no troubles was the SPV C500, but I think that was because this phone didn't support phonebook synchronization and had no network identification/signal strength over bluetooth.
After the SPV C500 it went wrong. First I noticed that after a hard reset it worked for a few days. Later (about 2 years later ) I found out that it was because the call history was going to long to sync over bluetooth.
Then I found Jetware in which you can limit syncing to any number of items. They even had a fix for the connection to my carkit.
Unit now... it works like a charm... but keep my fingers crossed
I don't know if your carkit is a Audi UHV, but I saw that they had a fix for that too! You have to just install Jetware and then run the fix-file from your phone. Good luck!!
P.S. I am in no kind related to Jetware, I just found out that it worked for me.
Yes, I have an Audi UHV 6634. Thank you for the info, I'll try that and post the results here. Though, my car-kit is not the advanced one and I don't have to sync anything with it (contacts or something else). It's most working as a plain hands-free device, no extra functions...speaking of which, I've noticed that on the phone is detected as "hands-free"...why not "car-kit" as I know a car-kit has other functionality as well? This is the "standard" BT device for any audio enhancements (even if it is a car-kit not a BT headset), or I have to activate something to be recognized as car-kit?

my Honda system doesn`t read the sim I can only dial out via handsfree using contacts i`ve entered into the Honda system otherwise I either have to read the number to the system and it will ring out (most of the time anyway) or make the call on the phone (illegally obviously) cancel the call and then say "redial" and the system makes the call. So uless I`m misunderstanding this setting I don`t think it will help me.
I`ve searched the Jetware website and I couldn`t find a fix for my Honda
UPDATE: So...I've downloaded it, install it on my Diamond (including the extension file for Audi UHV) and...no change. Everything as before with both issues. Disappointed, I've uninstalled Jetware then...surprise. AFTER uninstall, I can now hear through my car's speakers the ID ringtone Maybe some BT settings were altered and remained like this after uninstall, but I don't know why it didn't work when Jetware WAS installed...strange.
Anyway, many thanks...at least half of the problems are now solved and this only by install/uninstall a program...that's cool. I must now find a way to make the car kit ring when I make a call, this is still an issue.
P.S. I've seen that Diamond support Headset and Handsfree profiles...and when connected to my car kit is set as Handsfree. I suppose this is better than Headset...but still no ring out tone.

Hello,
I have a Mercedes car kit and facing the same issue as you: everything works perfectly for a few days when hard-resetting my device, even with my 500+ contacts (they are loaded in less than a minute), but after a few days/weeks I can't get to have my call history or contacts displayed in less than half an hour!
Yesterday I thought I'd just hard reset my device because I had this problem again, but unfortunately it didn't work!
Guess what I have done differently this time: yes, I backed up and restored my call history, which I hadn't done the previous times! So I guess it is indeed related to the call history, but I can't test for now!
I have installed JetWare and limited the call history to 5 numbers, I'll try this tonight and I'll keep you informed...
Hello,
So I have tested this yesterday (installed Jetware and limited the call history to 5 numbers), and now it works FLAWLESSLY! I can browse through my 500 contacts instantaneously when I pair my phone with my Mercedes car kit.
So, in my case it was also clearly the CALL HISTORY that was causing problems... A BIG BIG thanks to Mauser for pointing out this!
I'm also having problem connecting my Diamond to my Volvo S80. All the other functions work except that I could not hear the other party through my car stereo and I also could not diconnect the call with my car end key.
I'll try the Jetware and I'll report back later. Thanks for the pointer.

Bluetooth Car Kit Problems

I have experienced few irritating problems with my Diamond when used in my Seat Leon 2008's stock head unit via bluetooth:
1. Phonebook is displayed always and I can call phones from there which is OK, however "Incoming Calls", "Outgoing Calls" and "Missed Calls" are not working always: sometimes I have those lists filled with the corresponding entries, sometimes all three lists are empty.
2. When I am running iGO8, the bluetooth connection gets connected and disconnected each 5 minutes or so.
3. The headset volume is really low. I didn't have that problem with my Sony Ericsson phones before.
Does anyone have any of those problems and know a solution for them?
Only thing i can say. Stock seat bluetooth is terrible. My brother has orderd a new seat and the dealer advised to choose for the pioneer mounted radio because of the known problems with the seat unit and the bluetooth functions of it.
try posting in the Accesories section, u might get more help.

Pioneer isn't that good either, I had the Pioneer radio with Bluetooth and I couldn't get it running with my previous phone Trinity P3600 and with my Diamond it didn't work either.
Willem
I have used the stock head unit previously with simple mobile phones and it has always worked perfectly and I was very happy with the bluetooth implementation in Seat. So, I think the problem is not in the head unit (i.e. an accessory problem) but lies somewhere in the "phonebook through bluetooth" implementation in the Diamond.
Hello,
I have the same problem. I have a Skoda Octavia II (2007) with built-in bluetooth and a Diamond (ROM 2.03).
I use the iGO8, and it works fine, but the bluetooth connects and disconnects randomly in all ~5 minutes. When I shut down the iGO8 or when it runs on the background, the bluetooth works perfectly, when it runs in the foreground, the bluetooth disconnects again...
Who knows wat is this problem? Should I try a new ROM? A new radio version? A new iGO version?
CyberGene: Have you a solution for this problem? Or you use a different iGO8 or a different navi software?
Thanks,
DuckHead_
Unfortunately I didn't find any solution to the problem. To be honest, I am currently using a SonyEricsson phone and the Diamond is used by my girlfriend. We are still using iGo from within the Diamond but with no Bluetooth activated.
Thank you for the quick answer.
Why don't you just take your car into a car audio place and get them to check it out for you
I thought it so that the problem with Diamond. The BT does not work only if running the iGO...

Pairing bluetooth headsets

I just recently bought a new stereo bluetooth headset (dell BH200) which sounds great when I play music through it, but it comes with a gigantic flaw. I can't make or recieve calls. The moment any of that happens, the headset disconnects itself. I'm wondering what the problem is since the headset does support 2.0 with EDR and so does the fuze. One thing I did noticed though was that when I paired the headset, it did not ask for a passkey at all and just went straight to "save".
I'm wondering if there is anything that I can do to make the headset work with phone if anyone has any idea. I was lurking around and someone mentioned something about CoD (class of device) but I dont think that's the issue.
Thankyou for your time reading this post.

mmm me thinks that it may not have paired correctly. I don't actually know much about the model you have. I have a Iclip R32 which I have had paired with most of my phones. It always asks for the passkey. I have always, once paired, made a call to my phone while the headset is connected. Not sure if it is related to my device or not but if I do not do this it will do weird things when I listen to music and receive calls. Sorry if this has not been of much help to you.
Bottom line: I would delete the pairing and do it again.
if you're not sure which bt headset it is, it's up on the dell website. Let me snag a link for you real quick. The problem is it only does half the function i want it to which is aggravating.
Here you go:
http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/...etail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku=313-6220
that's the headset I got. The thing that strikes me as odd is that I couldn't enter a passkey nor is there an option for me to force to provide a passkey like vista. I heard rumors about the bluetooth stack automatically assuming passkeys for "unsafe" devices like headsets and all that. If anything should I consider getting a different bt stack? People were recomending Widdcomm's...

Mm I checked them with the link you sent thanks for that.
Maybe my headset is getting old but it always asks for a passkey when I connect it. My Touch Pro did just like my Kaiser and Hermes. Sorry but maybe you will need to check with Dell. They do not mention any thing but I'm assuming that they have a microphone for phone calls....
edit: Doh I just read the 2nd page of reviews and it does have a mic. Sorry should of checked that before.
Well since your touch pro most probably runs wm6.1, i doubt it's because your headset is old. I wonder if there's a way to disable this automatic passkey guessing thing.
Anyone? any ideas on how to disable the automatic pin number guessing feature of wm6.1?

So what do you guys think?
Would it be a good idea to use a different bt stack or am I stuck with no choice at all?
Need Help Badly!!
hi i'm trying to pair my bluetooth headset (Samsung WEP200) but everytime i put the pin number (that is given by the bluetooth headset) it always said "Your Device did not connect with Samsung WEP200. The connection Failed or the passcode is incorrect".
how to install the hotfix (the hot fix from HTC website) on my HTC Touch Pro? everytime i copy the .exe file into my device, and run it, i always got an error box. Incorrect Device, "Please use the correct Device to Install This Hotfix program!" i don't know how it happen, i download this from HTC support page. i select the phone (HTC Touch Pro) and in the "Software Download" tab it show that there are 3 available download, the Hotfix, the Rom and Application.
i really need help....... pls, someone that have the same proble with their HTC Touch Pro bluetooth connection.....
is there a way to disable the automatic passkey mode that came with the MS bt stack or anything like changing my stack to a different' company's

Nexus one and car bluetooth

Hi
I have been trying to pair my N1 to my nissan altima 2008 bose bluetooth system but it wouldn't pair. I tried countless number Of times but it won't work.
Does anyone else have this problem?
I think I read in the Google Nexus One forum that there are issues with Nissan/Infiniti cars and the bluetooth of the Nexus one.
hmmm... I have got mine paired with Chinese all in one DVD/SATNAV/DTV unit... it works very well.. It even automatically switches on the unit when It detects a bluetooth signals from my paired Nexus One....
Well, Im guessing its something to do with compatibility with the Nissan Bose Unit. Because I also had a difficulty pairing my Previous G1, But ONLY after updating to Donut 1.6. It eventually connected but after many many tries.
I have beeen doing some googling about this and it seems that many users are having problems pairing with different cars with 1.6 and above.

Well the other option you have is to change your car... and get a car which is compatible with Nexus One...

this issue is known to carry through android 2.0 and 2.1.
I have the 2010 Mazda 3 sport with the Bose package and it pairs fine.

Yeah, I have the 2010 Mazda 3i touring and no problems either.
ID have a kenwood deck in my mazda and all works good. is there some kind of factory reset switch on your stereo, that's what I have to do t get new phones working on mine.
I have a Parrot Mki9100 and I have some problems...when I am on the car my Nexus One connect itslef with the Parrot, but it disconnect and try to reconnect many times. At the end it stops trying...
So every time I have to go to Settings->BT->Long press on Parrot device and click connect. After that it works...very annoing...
Hm... I have an '08 Infiniti G37 with the Bose system and it pairs and works just as well as it did with my G1. I would have assumed that Nissan is using the same or a similar unit for the audio system for most of their cars.
Mazda 6 gt-m 2009 here, BT carkit has no probs with the N1
Tried to pair it with the parrot in my gf's car, but same probs as described by other users. Seems it's the Parrot; my iphone had issues with it as well.
Ah well, i'd rather drive my car then hers, so good excuse to use mine
I dont get how they end up making things worse by upgrading rather than making things better !!! I mean according to : http://code.google.com/p/android/is...ct&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars
This problem has been known since 1.6 and I can defenitly confirm that since It took me forever to pair my G1 previously. But with my N1 , it just never pairs, so they even made it worse. Such an important option, you would think Google would have fixed it in 2.0 but to drag it to 2.1. This is just messed up.
That is very frustrating.
@OP, someone mentioned changing your car to accommodate your nexus one, that sounds like a great idea, but if you can't get it to work you can always go with a bluetooth add on option.
At Volkswagen there were some phones that were not connecting with the manufacturer add on and customers were pissed because they paid over $400 for the option. Another thing just as bad is purchasing the unit and not being able to use the bluetooth steering wheel controls because of compatibility issues.
My conclusion is that there are too many products out there and sometimes they are just not compatible with each other. In this case it sucks that it was your car...or should I say your phone?
Well, the Nexus connects fine to my VW premium bluetooth (from 2005) but the cars system can not access the phonebook.
Not even the sim contacts which the HTC Hero could do.....
Google support suggested importing the sim contacts into the Nexus.
I wonder if they read the mails before they answer....
I've always found OEM bluetooth to be pretty uncompatible, and yet to see an update for one.
I've got a kenwood unit, which works with my steering controls, connects handsfree and audio when I turn on my ignition, and it syncs the phone book fine, showing the callers name when the phone rings. (it cost £80....) and I updated it (it's a parrot bluetooth unit in there) from my laptop via bletooth.
The N1 works best of all the phones I've had (6 htc's in 3 years) with it.
I never had an issue with my old g1...until I flashed a 2.0 ROM. Everything pairs fine, music player worked, stereo would switch over, but no sound came from speakers on phone calls. Now my nexus is the same way. I've asked Cyanogen if he would be kind enought to look into it and hopefully he will.
My N1 (locked bootloader, not rooted) routes the audio just fine, did it work before you cyanogened it?
ck3100
Wel I tried to connect my N1 to the parrot ck3100. it will see it fine, but the moment I try to link it it says paring failed. Anybody had any better luck with the ck3100 and N1?

I've got a 2010 Mazda 3 sport - it pairs/plays fine etc with my Nexus, but the person on the other end of the line always complains that I sound *really* quiet. I never had that problem with my G1. Do you get any complaints?
