[Q] Transfer phone book to car - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Hi all,
so my wife and I just got a new 2012 Nissan Maxima and it's the first car with bluetooth that we have ever had. Last night we were messing around with the bluetooth and both our phones were able to make calls and voice dialing worked perfectly. However, we weren't able to access our phonebooks, or get names of callers on incoming calls.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially if there is anyone here who has the same car. 2012 Nissan Maxima, with NO NAV, just the backup camera monitor package.
Thanks in advance all!

i would recommend either reading your manual or asking this question in a nissan forum oppose to asking a phone forum as your issue will be car related.... just a thought

My only thought when asking here was to figure out why the PHONE wouldn't transfer its data to the car.

Go here and enter in the model you have. It should tell you whether or not you can stream music through your phone, to your bluetooth.
(<---- feels like an ass) thank you for stepping my bluetooth game up!!
first time i ever get one..... ofcourse i do no research and assume bluetooth works for everything.
really appreciate you guys answering back so quickly.

[Q] "Bluetooth Headset Disconnected" in car stereo

I recently bought a JVC-KW-XR810 stereo unit.
My evo was currently shattered, but it had connection problems.
so I tested my girlfriend's Motorola Atrix. she could play media and make phone calls to her hearts content, so I was assured the new Evo I got in the mail would be fine.
not the case..
the audio cuts out after about 10 seconds of making a call or streaming media, but says it is still connected. I delved into the Bluetooth connections, and unchecked "connect phone" but only left "connect audio" on.
when I did this, I could stream music all night with no drop in Bluetooth connection.
when I try to make a call, the audio goes from my car speakers, to the handset in a matter of seconds. extremely frustrating.
I've even updated the firmware on my JVC unit using a thumb drive.
no fix.
I'm on a stock ROM of froyo 2.2
I tried it fresh out of the box, I also tried it rooted (which it is now with the same stock rom)
the only thing I can really imagine is going on is that Asurion sent me a refurbished POS with defective bluetooth connection.
anyone else have this problem?
this is literally the 6th EVO I've owned, so it's kind of funny at this point.
I kinda have the same problem. Mine will connect flawless with a non sense rom,such as 2.3,with warm z it will connect but not download the phone book from my phone. Kinda frustrating.

What am I looking for here?
Wrong section, go post in the questions section.
I posted something similar in the thread for Koni's Elite II thread which is the ROM I am currently using, however, I have had my problem with this ROM and Kings R2 (recent problem since using these 2 roms)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941055&page=147
I am running into a Bluetooth issue on this rom as well as Kings R2.
Before I have flashed any of these rom's, I wipe everything 2x as well as using the format all 2x. So this is happening after fresh installs.
What happens is, I have a parrot car kit and upon the first time enabeling the bluetooth it attempts to pair up. I enter the pin code and then enable it to access my phonebook and all that like normal. It works fine. But then next time I come to my car and start it, it wont auto connect to the parrot kit (bluetooth is on.) So then I turn Bluetooth on my phone off and back on. But now it act's like it is the first time it is pairing up. It asks me for my pin code again and then asks for permission to access the phone book again. Before, it never did this, so it is not remembering my pin code or the selection of being allowed to access the phone book.
Also, when this happens, alot of times after it asks me for the pin code, I look at the parrot screen and when the phone says it is paired up, the parrot kit says it is disconnected. The option to allow the parrot kit to access the phone book now never populates, so it is sitting in limbo. So I then have to go into the bluetooth settings and I see it say that it is paired but not connected. So I click on it and tell it to connect, and sometimes this method works and allows it to sync, and sometimes it doesn't.
On other ROMS before these 2, (unless it was an ASOP ROM which I haven't used in a while) I never had problems with it connecting, staying connecting, and remembering my initial pin code and option to allow it to access my phone.
Sorry for the long description there, just trying to explain what is going wrong right now.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Any other information I can offer up to help troubleshoot?
BTW, I am using the same kernel I have used throughout all of these sense based roms, Netarchy-toastmod-4.3.2-cfs-nosbc-havs-more
Thank you,

i have the jvc-arsenal 815bt i only have that problem when i have more then one phone paired to my unit. if you havent tried yet,go into the bluetooth settings delete all devices and initialize the bluetooth thumb from settings.then put the unit in pair mode and search/connect again from your phone.when it ask you to download contacts press yes.

Fine, let me tie this in. It seems to be an issue with the HTC ROM's Bluetooth stack. I've heard from tons of users that its the "automatic phone book download" that wrecks everything. You have to do a factory reset. Resync and do the phonebook download immediately & with only 1 google account setup. I recently got a PM that CM7 has its own bluetooth stack that eliminates the issue. If other ROMs are having the same issue maybe devs should look into using their stack.

lol, thanks. Actually i was hoping an answer from anyone having problems.
I was having them quite often, figured out it was only when I had DSP manager or Awesome beats installed AND set to modify the bluetooth sound. Not sure if this is your case or not but thought I would chime in. To fix I just unchecked ALL options under bluetooth then unpaired. (Turn off BT go into BT on phone, unpair, turn BT on phone off, reboot phone) then I repaired and no more disconnects.

I got lots of disconnections from my car audio system.
My heart rate monitor and nokia head set disconnects too much. Over 5 times in one hour.
My wife's GN also disconnects from her Kenwood head unit. Far less frequently than mine, but it happens. I'm surprised more people haven't chimed in on this issue. My dad just got his GN yesterday so I'll check his tonight to see if it too suffers from this problem.

at least i am not the only one with problems. Since i never tested bluetooth in stock ICS i thought it could be some hardware problem. But apparently other people have too ...
I had no such issues. I use it with a Plantronic 925 and a Gear4 BT stereo speaker, none if them working differently than they did on ICS.

I haven't had problems with Bluetooth audio. When I use Bluetooth File Transfer between my Xoom and Gnex, I can view my Xoom's file system from my GNex. When I try to view my Gnex file system, I get a an error message saying the Nexus does not support OBEX FTP, which it should. Not a big deal but it is a nuisance.

i notice Bluetooth issues when connected to my motorcycle helmet.
using stock or other custom roms it will start to cut out or skip when i put the phone in my pocket and at highway speed it loses connection completely.
when using cm10 "official not the kangs" it has no issue whatsoever and the connection distance is improved 20x. i can have the phone 20 meters away and it still stays connected and even at highway speeds.

CM10 = Cyanogenmod Version 10. It is the first Jelly Bean Rom from Cyanogenmod. There are many threads on the topic but you can also find information on their site.
The official nightly releases of this version has just been released for the VZW and Sprint Galaxy Nexus as well as other devices.

Its tmo service which is causing the issue. They dont allow devices to access their network through phones.
I have an acura with acuralink, been researching for literally a year to get this stupid acura link to work and i cant figure it out. Another guy on the acura forums has a verizon phone he said it synced up without him trying to.

My T-Mobile Note 2 is working fine with Ford MyTouch Sync... SMS messages come through just fine. Have you updated to the latest firmware for your car? Another thing to try is to power cycle the car... delete your phone from the car, delete Sync from the phone, power cycle the phone, and pull the car's battery cable for a minute.

It just didn't work. Everytime I got a text my phone would give the alert noise. It's like my phone would think that somebody had already read the text message. So when I picked the phone up I didn't even know that I had received a reply because I had the radio on and couldn't hear the phone. So its like the radio was trying to get the text but couldn't all the way. I would check and neither device would say I had a text. The phone would have the text but would say that I already read it. My Sync system wouldn't even receive it.
When I started the car up the other day I heard music but the display was all black. The first text I received after that it started alerting me and giving me the option to read them. So my issue fixed is self.
Ido believe that unplugging the battery may have fixed this issue. That is as long as the regular old school car battery was the one that powered this device. As my car is hybrid.

4.1.2 bluetooth MAP on 4.3?

So, I updated to 4.3 and now my focus is having problems with bluetooth. It used to work perfectly before the update but now the metadata of the song doesn't update on the radio and some other things like texts don't come through like they used to.
Simply put, is there a way to get the old bluetooth "stuff" into 4.3 or is that baked in?
I was just studying the BT issues and I found out all phones with 4.2 or greater has BT problems across the board.
Can you just copy-paste BT files? I don't know.
But its a common issue.

That's what I aim to find out... I'm tempted to just go back to a 4.1.2 ROM but meh...
No, I agree about staying with 4.3. I'm sure Google will release a fix or a clever xda member will get it.

Quoting you too so you get a notification,
Edit: quote from a verizon thread:
Just so everyone is aware, this is due to the whole Motorola/Google ownership change. In previous versions of Android, Motorola sourced their own protocols for their products, and included MAP in their bluetooth profiles. Since the Jelly Bean update, they've used Google's own Bluetooth protocols, in which MAP was omitted.
is this true? Surely not, how would it have worked on 4.1.2?
Edit again:
http://www.androidheadlines.com/201...ocus-feature-bluetooth-map-now-supported.html
Says kitkat supports MAP again............. may just get a kitkat rom even though I'd rather stick to stock TW.....
Well, I updated to 4.4 ........... still no go
