Samsung Galaxy S2 and Mobridge M1000-C-BT

[voltboyee]

Hi guys,

Just joined the site after reading a few posts since I got my Golf. I have MK6 GTI with RNS510 and this a Mobridge M1000-C-BT bluetooth module. See below for link.

CAN Bluetooth | mObridge

Recently I just bought a new Samsung Galaxy S2. Whatever I try, I am unable to pair the phone with the handsfree unit. The phone is running the latest firmware (KE7 Android 2.3.3) . The car is running 3.2.3 of the bluetooth module firmware. The phone just keeps popping up with the message "Unable to pair with Car BT" . The car handsfree shows up fine in the list of bluetooth devices but I cannot pair them together...

Really annoying. Any ideas? I'm quite technical but not too clued up on bluetooth stuff.

Can you pair any other phone with the car BT?
Also make sure your phone is visible the others for pairing.

I had taken the car back to the installers (Fiberdyne) and they replaced the module with one with the latest firmware (323). The car bluetooth works fine with 2 other phones (iPhone 4 and HTC Desire) .

I have tried resetting the phone to defaults using a special code provided by Samsung. They just don't like each other

Anyone know of any bluetooth modules that are known to work with SGS2?

I too just got a Samsung Galaxy S2 .. but I have the VW 9w7 BT unit. The two units can pair and I can make calls but I cant download my phonebook. Worked fine with my iphone.

Got my phone book to upload to the car. It required me to have my contacts on the SIM card. All my contacts were syncing via gmail. All working. I even have voice recognition running via the microphone in the car. With turn by turn navigation and voice command, this phone is awesome! Not sure if I will upgrade to a RNS510 now.

So you're happy with your 9W7? Is it a good unit.

Found an ebay seller who will send it to Aus for $150. Anyone know if its hard to install?

Have been doing some reading about it and seems like a good unit. Have you sorted out all the address book issues? Don't really want to store my contacts on the SIM.

The 9w7 works great with iphone. But still having issues with my new Samsung Galaxy s2. I cant retrieve my call register. (missed called, dialed numbers etc) Anyone else got a 9w7 and android phone but have all the functions working?
