Hi guys. I went to the dealership last week and we just couldn't get the bluetooth to work with my Nokia N80. My wife's sony phone was fine.....

Here is what happens


- Set carkit ON
- (voice command) on carkit a nice lady gives me a menu where i can say "pair phone"
- (voice command) the carkit instructs me to put the phone in scan mode
- I enable on the N80 bluetooth visibility ON and bluetooth ON
- I go to connected deviced (it is empty) and select NEW device
- My phone is scanning and finds ASTON
- I select ASTON
- (voice command) the carkit says "Pairing in progress, give 1234 as key when prompted"
- On the N80 i am asked to enter the key -> i enter 1234
- (voice command) the carkit says "Pairing complete" and next "connecting in progress"
- On the N80 i get the message to allow this device to be connected allways (yes, no) -> i choose YES (when choosing NO there is no difference).
- On the N80 the ASTON device is in the list, there is an icon to be seen indicating the device is autorised
- Still the carkit is saying "connecting in progress"
- After a while, the carkit says "connecting failed"

When i select ASTON from the list and do CONNECT, the N80 gives an error "unable to connect bluetooth device"

So pairing is ok, it is populated in the list. Only the connect fails. What could this be ?

We have a similiar problem with certain phones on the Jag system. Is your handset software 100% compatible with the Aston Bluetooth system? It could well be that.
