When I picked up my 350 a few days ago the dealer told me they had "problems" hooking up the Treo through Bluetooth. We hooked it up at the time and it worked perfectly for several days. Now it is not working, and I cannot get it to work. The phone is showing that it connects, but the car is clearly telling me "mobile phone not connected". Has anyone else fixed this problem?

Try a reset of the phone; that sometimes clears up problems. Use the stylus to press in the hole on the back of the phone under the battery cover on the left side. 3. From the main phone screen, click on the top left corner to show the menu, choose "Options">"Phone Preferences", then try turning on or off "Enable Voice Privacy" and see which way works better. Let us know if any of these help. |

I have a Motorola RAZR paired with my new ES 350. Whenever I am speaking on my phone, I'll frequently get a second call on call waiting. If I don't answer the new call, both calls disconnect when the 2nd call rolls over to voicemail. If I do answer the 2nd call, both calls hang up when the 1st call disconnects. Others don't seem to be having the trouble so I am sure that it is a setting on my phone but I can't find anything. Does anyone have any suggestions. |

Check the car you're looking at to see if it works with your phone or enter your phone to see which cars support it. http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-10895_7-6550017.html?tag=nl.e501

Replying to: donegal (Jul 12, 2006 3:50 am) However, whenever I am using the bluetooth and recieve a 2nd call on call waiting, both lines disconnect when either caller hangs up. Yesterday, I took my phone to the store I bought it from and was told that this was a software issue and they needed to load a different operating system on my phone. They asked me to call Lexus to learn which operating system works with the Lexus. I spent almost 2 hours being bounced around between Lexus, the Lexus bluetooth specialists and Motorola. Finally, a Lexus customer service representative told me that the Lexus bluetooth does not support call waiting and that I needed to disable call waiting on my cell phone when making a call to keep from having call waiting disconnect the original call. She said that this is true for all Lexus vehicles and all phones. I'd like to know if all other ES 350 owners experience this problem or if I got some misinformation. Please post and let me know if a second cell phone call makes your phone disconnect when using bluetooth. |

I'm on the Sprint PCS network and don't really want to change mobile phone providers. I am, however, willing to upgrade my current phone to take advantage of the bluetooth capabilities of the ES350. I noticed just today that Sprint has introduced a new bluetooth enabled cell phone (Samsung A640) that MAY be compatible with the Lexus ES350. Does anyone know about the compatibility of this phone? I would also be interested in ANY Sprint PCS phone that would work with the ES350 as long as it is NOT a PDA-style phone .Thanks |

Since no one has responded to my question on the ES350 Bluetooth Subforum, I have repeated it here: I'm on the Sprint PCS network and don't really want to change mobile phone providers.
