On toyota.letstalk.com your phone is listed under palm and sprint. Have you tried calling their support number 1-866-875-3987?

you have to manually switch phones when there are two that you have entered into the system--it automatically searches for the one that you have selected...
 
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...

cell phone disconnecting by carolgray

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?

I was finally able to pair my phone. It works fine after the pairing process. But if I shut down my TCH and leave the vehicle it no longer works. The Profile is still in the phone and the TCH's Bluetooth setup. But for some reason it wont detect each other.
 
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.

Its not the cars bluetooth.The problem is in the phone.Make sure you have the bluetooth setting on always connect. I have 4 toyota and a new Lexus. I am a pro at this...plus working for Toyota for 20 years helps...I have paired that phone dozens of times..It will hold the programming. If your settings are set correct...Its the phone

I have a 2007 TCH and have had the same problem. It took me a long time to figure out that my voice was killed to my callers whenever the auto climate control - a/c was turned on. When I turn it off, my callers begin hearing me again. Obviously, there is some sort of interference between the climate control system and voice transmission. I have yet to discuss this with the dealer and to force the issue under my warranty.

Bluetooth for a disabled driver by hblur

A guy I know who is in a wheelchair asked me a question about Bluetooth. He is getting a Toyota Sienna which is outfitted with a ramp and driving gear since he is in a wheelchair and has only partial use of his arms and of use to his legs.
The Bluetooth in the Sienna is (I think) like that on my 2007 RAV4: not entirely hands free. You have to hit the “off hook” switch to answer a call and have to hit a button to say a name and hit another to make a call.
The problem is that he cannot hit those switches. He needs it to be completely hands free.
Would anyone know if this can be accomplished?
Ear pieces are bad, too, since they usually have to be activated with a finger touch, so far as I know..
Thank you in advance for any light you might shed on this.

Dealer support is BS-Toyota Navigation stinks+ BT by guruuno

We can all "play the game".....I do PC/Network support for a living, I deal with hardware and software manufacturers on a daily basis for over 1 years.
Toyota is just blowing everyone off.
It don't work, none of it, my Garmin work flawlessly.
How do we get our money back, or a car with things that work?
We don't, unless a class action lawsuit is started, or, enough people band together to be heard, publicly.
Remember, Toyota is now #1.....what happened when GM was #1, does anyone remember all the nightmare support for everything?
It's no different for anything else from microwaves, TV's, furniture, PC's, everything.
RSN (real soon now) is when it may be addressed, if not just abandoned before a newer/better one is replaced.
Oh well, we all could be living in some other part of the world and have no voice, right?

JBL Bluetooth listener cannot understand me by markchurch

I have a 2008 TCH with Nav. Currently on 2nd BT microphone and still having problems with BT calls. person on other end cannot hear and am constantly having to repeat. Works better when car and A/C are off, but this makes it useless. I need to know if this is an inherent defect so I can get resolution from Toyota. Plz post if you are experiencing similar issues.
