Replying to: alw1 (May 27, 2008 8:03 am) I'm having the same issue in my 2008 NAH with a Virgin Super Slice. I've done some digging and it appears it's a fatal flaw due to Virgin crippling the bluetooth capabilities on their phones. It appears to be a problem mainly with cars that have factory bluetooth setups. I have had success with my Super Slice and a Magellan 4040 Nav unit so it will work with bluetooth hands free devices, just not (some?) factory units. It's a bit of a bummer because I just bought these two new phones about 6 months ago. We're going to give T-Mobile a shot since they use 'real' phones, most of which are listed on (for me) Nissan's website as being compatible. We're going to start with a Motorola V195 and see how it works. Nice thing is with T-Mobile is if you buy $100 in air time it's good for 1000 minutes and lasts for a year, so 10c per minute. Anyway, good luck finding something that works in your new car. Ed |

I have a LG VX8600 through Verizon. And I'm trying to pair it to my 09 TCH with no luck so far. I've tried the pairing process dozens of times, with 2 mild successes (pair did not hold). I took it to the Dealer with no luck (my salesman was able to pair his Blackberry though). I called Verizon tech support, they wouldn't help (not one of their products). toyota.letstalk.com also was no help, all they wanted to do is go through the step by step process written in the manual.  The funny thing is that the both Letstalk and the Verizon sites say that this phone is supposed to be compatible.  Lastly, considering that I can upgrade my contract in November. Is there an accurate listing some where that has truly compatible phones?

Replying to: orgal (Jun 12, 2006 7:59 pm) I got a new LG Vue after we bought the TCH and had a little problem getting it connected initially--had to delete my other phone-- system for doing that is not intuitive--frustrating at time-- with both phones (mine and DH's) in the TCH memory--it goes for the one that was highlighted the last time--that is the default if your husband's was used and you are riding solo--it won't automatically pick up your phone--it is waiting for his... |

| I recently purchased a 2009 TCH. My Kyocera Strobe K612B automatically connects with ease, and probably 75% of the time it works fine. However, the other 25% of the time, when a call begins to come in it immediately disconnects my phone. Any suggestions? | |

Replying to: erniem (Jun 06, 2008 7:37 am) The dealer had no ideas, and so have I. unless there's a major breakthrough in the near future (or I get a new phone) I'm probably going to ignore the hands-free.
