I now can not import my phonebook it will keep saying lost connection and the phone actuallly shuts off and restarts itself. the phone is connect back up to the bluetooth but I can not import the phone book again.

Problem with Voice Commands (HFL and Nav) by hthlev
Sep 22, 2008 (4:58 pm)

I have just recently purchased a 2008 Acura TL with Navigation, and have had the vehicle approx 1 month. Almost 2 weeks ago, I experienced a problem with voice recognition, with both HFL and Navigation. I could press the related buttons to initiate voice recognition. However, when actually giving an audible command, no commands were accepted. Initially, when it happened, I was on the phone with Acura Service to let them know of the issue, thinking there was something that I may have inadvertantly changed, just getting use to all of the new features. After about 1/2 hour of attempt after attempt, finally I was able to get acknowledgement of an HFL command (TRANSFER), as I was speaking to service. The problem reappeared almost 1 week later; this time without being able to get voice recognition back. I feel that there is something wrong with the Audio input feature of voice commands, but that is simply from a layman's perspective. The car is now at the dealer (having been able to duplicate the problem for one of the service reps when I got there). Now they tell me that they can not duplicate the problem and that it is functioning yet once again. Does anyone have a suggestion? I do not feel comfortable just picking the car up, having had the issue more than once.

Blackberry 8703 by smlull163

Greetings to ALL! My 2008 TL is just about 3 weeks old. I got a pretty decent deal, not a screaming one but okay. Anyway, I paired my phone to the car. Things seem to work okay, though I have to press the call button alot to get it to call, but everyone hears me fine. I can't seem to get my phonebook imported. I thought that the 8703 was on the compatible list, but who knows. Has anyone else experienced this and did they find a way around it?

Blackberry 8830 with TL 2006 by carteach

It's time for a new phone and I've been considering the Blackberry 8830 (World Edition). The Acura link page lists the phone as compatible, but when you check further it shows call waiting as not being compatible.
 
Does anyone have any experience using a phone that Verizon says will not work with call waiting? If it's not going to work, I'll have to give up the idea of the 8830. Call waiting is a must.
 
Thanks for any help or advice.

I had an 8703. It does not support the Phonebook transfer. I actually bought on eBay a Sony phone that was fully supported, put my important contacts in that, and then did the phonebook transfer. The 8703 had no problem using the imported phonebook from the Sony. Honestly, however, it takes 7 button and/or screen pushes to dial a number from the phonebook. Very poor design, and I seldom use it.
 
I have subsequently upgraded to an 8820 which does support the phonebook transfer.

I have a 2008 TL Navi and call waiting works fine with the 8830. I'm on the Bell Canada network.
 
However, I do have one annoying problem with this BB. When I make an outgoing call, I dial from the BB but I have to manually transfer the call over to the HFL by saying "transfer" each time I make a call. Incoming calls go directly to the HFL.
 
I have my phone paired correctly, and it is set to trust the connection. I'm reading others have this problem too.
 
Any suggestions?

palm centro by carteach

I'm interested in purchasing a Verizon Palm Centro. I can't find it on the list of "approved" or "not approved" phones for the 2006 TL. Any way I can find out whether it's compatible? Or does anyone here have it?
 
Thanks.

Hello,
I'm new to this site. Can anyone help me here please? I have a 2006 Acura TL and yesterday the hands free buttons just stopped working. No beeps, voice or anything from the thumb paddles. Any ideas?
 
Thanks!

Just curious. Do you have a phone that's been "approved" by Acura?
 
I realize that my new phone is not on the list and for the past couple of days the disconnect thumb paddle didn't work.

Yes the phone is approved and have been working all along but now the buttons appear to be dead completely.
 
Thanks
