I have a 2007 Camry Hybrid (with the navigation system) that I've used with my bluetooth LG (8300 I think) phone for almost two years. I just "upgraded" to the LG Dare and it won't sync. When the phone goes to discover the car it comes up with Unknown Device instead of "Hands Free." Digging into the phone I see that it actually has the hardware address of the car... but it just won't finish the sync operation. Verizon blames Toyota. Toyota says the car blue tooth is working fine and it is compatible with the LG Dare so it must be the phone. Thanks, John Baltimore, MD |

I have the lg 8300, my 3rd replacement, and this one doesn't keep the bluetooth sync. When a call comes, in the bluetooth transfers back to the phone (without my doing anything) but then I can't get the phone to accept the call. I also cannot make any calls while the bluetooth is connected. I really don't want to go to verizon for a 4th replacement. I have the 2007 camry without nav. Any ideas? Hope this forum is still monitored... Marcia |

When I first got my 07 Camry, the bluetooth worked famously with my lg chocolate flip. Then over the course of 6 months it slowly started to not work reliably. Its reliability just deteriorated to a point that it was unbearable and UNACCEPTABLE. I went to my Toyota dealer and they told me it was my phone or verizon. I told them I was using the same phone. They pretty much told me that as long as it kinda works...they wont fix it. Im like...if my steering wheel kinda works from time to time your NOT going to fix it? No of course not. To me its a load of crap, and Im still waiting to hear from toyota. So Lets cut to last July when I got my Iphone and moved to AT I believe that this practice to refuse to fix it even with a bumper to bumper warranty its just ridiculous. Im so glad I found this forum...now I am motivated again to get this rectified. Will let you all know something as soon as I do. L |

Hey all, I think we all can agree that getting bluetooth to work well is a crap shoot at best. imho, if u are considering buying a camry, skip the bluetooth option and then have it installed aftermarket. My local shop could have provided SUPPORTED bluetooth with display, gps, and on-star-esque service for half the price I paid for factory installed bluetooth. The compatibility chart is nice but it isn't even half the story. For those of us who are stuck w factory installed bluetooth, who can recommend a good phone? (a reliable unit that connects easily, where listener and caller sound very good,) Cell provider and model please & thank you. |

Currently have an 08 Camry LE Add me to the list of frustrated users with the Toyota Bluetooth system. I currently have a Blackberry Storm 9530 on the Verizon network. Echoes...check, 'you sound so far away'...check...the callers break up on me (although my signal strength is excellent)...check. Just frustrating. Prior to this I had a Blackberry 8820 with T-Mobile which wasn't perfect but I could carry on a fluid conversation without any drama. The only problem with the T-Mobile unit is that it wouldn't transfer the address book...but neither does my Storm Overall the Verizon gives me much better service which is why I dropped tmobile, but it would be nice to use a feature you have paid for in a car and not have to find an alternative. My alternative is a jawbone bluetooth ear unit. Clear conversation (even with all the windows down and sunroof open) and good battery life. Downside is it' not the most comfortable thing but I've gotten used to it. |

I had a LG something for the past 2 years with no problems with my bluetooth on my 2007 Camry with nav. Now I have a enV3 (Verizon) and after an hour of following the crappy instructions in both manuals, I cannot get the phone to pair with the car. How do I get the car to "discover" the phone? How do I change the address from my old phone to the new one? I don't remember it being this difficult the first time? HELP!
