    Samsung Galaxy S3

    Hi guys,

    I have just moved to a Galaxy S3 from an iPhone.

    I am trying to get this paired to the RNS510 via bluetooth but am having trouble. I'll turn the phone bluetooth on, and then search for it from the RNS. It finds the phone and supplies the password to enter.

    I enter the password on the phone and then press ok on the RNS. The phone then shows that it is paired. But the RNS keeps coming up as "phone incompatible".

    Has anyone else come across this or knows of a work around??

    Regards,
    Toby

    If it's like the mdi, and then it might not be compatible at all.. Sucks as I'm in the same boat!

    Hmmm. It's a complete bummer. Seems a bit ridiculous that it wouldn't work. Any reason why it wouldn't??

    Only thing I can think of is to go into Bluetooth settings on the phone and see if there is a 'mode'. Thinking it might be trying to use RSAP but not be enabled. Other than that, I've got nothing.

    I believe it's an Ice cream sandwich fault / issue on native devices (s3). I know my mates s2 works no problems even though he's now on ics

    My brother has a SIII, and it works fine with my RNS510. Pretty sure mine is a version C.

    This is the latest S3 from Telstra which came with Jellybean.

    If you go into settings and then to the bluetooth section the only options there are 'rename device' and 'visible timeout'.

    FWIW, my S3 works seamlessly without any issues!

    My S3 worked fine. Then started to hate phone. iPhone now. Works better in every way.

    Well I'm loving the phone. But this is driving me nuts. Must be doing something wrong. Will keep trying, last resort might be the dealer.
