I Love my 2008 LR-2 - But, have Bluetooth Problem - Page 2

FWIW, got a new phone for my wife:   Motorola W385.  Bluetooth is fully functioning (phone book, recent calls, etc...)

Not surprised it works...it looks to be almost identical in layout to the Krzr. Just a few cosmetic changes by the look of it. Hopefully the pairing fix will allow me to get the phone I was hoping to get, the V9m. I couldn't get it to pair with the HU no matter what I tried.

Just bought an LR@ a couple of weeks ago and have most Bluetooth functions with an LG phone.  Only thing that doesn't seem to work is the caller ID on an incoming call.  It displays "unknown number" even though the number is in the phone book in the car.  Anyone have any thoughts.  Thanks

I got a 2008 LR2 HSE- VIN 600xxx (last 6 digits). IT paire w My wife's unlocked tMobile iphone very easily, but wont with my Tmobile Dash. It recognizes it and even gives me a pairing code, but once I enter it in the phone it wont work. Would appreciate tips on fixing it.
 
 

HTC cell owners, I was able to pair my smartphone (WM6) with the LR2. The first time I tried, I got al the way though the 4 number pin exchange, then the LR2 BT came up with an error taht it could not find the BT on my cell. I gave up. Last night I deleted that entry in the LR2 and tried again. I got the same results, but for whatever reason, finished the config on the phone (had to identify what service to use when paired). Once I completed the phone, I noticed the BT Icon on the phone and look at the LR2 display and it show me connected and it was syncing my phonebook! After the sync was completed I made a call from the phonebook and it worked great. No issues now for two days working just fine. Most of the smartphones are HTC phones rebranded. Give it a try....

thnx- Whats your VIN? If its >xxx06500, they work with all phones, its the ones prior to this that got stuck with this problem.
 
I'd like ot try though. Can you explain what you mean by 'let my phone get configured'. After I enter the PIN, the LR2 system gives me an error message 'check the bluetooth or something'- and the cellphone (Tmobile dash) just goes into a hourglass hang. Are you saying I just wait and not do anything with the cellphone-and it gets configured by itself?

Just out of curiousity, has anyone tried to mate a new Iphone with the LR2? Or maybe even some other LR model? They aren't available to us yet, since ATT doesn't provide service up here (that's what we get for living in the boonies, lol), but I love them and that would be my choice when some other phone company gets the rights to offer them!

Just got my LR2 today and tried for a while to get the iPhone to pair. iPhone saw the Land Rover instantly. The Land Rover did not see the iPhone.
Then I found that the pair code which *should* be presented on screen for your, doesn't. But, the code is 2121.
Once the LR2 is searching, and the iPhone shows Land Rover, select it to pair, and the phone will ask for the code.
Enter 2121 and the phone will sync up, bringing in recent calls, missed calls, and your address book. Nice!

if your vehicle is searching for the phone it has the wrong software installed into the module, there is new software to update the cellphone module so the phone is the one that searches for the vehicle not the other way around, this is how all landrover modles are suppost to work. and yes the pairing codes is 2121

I just recently bought a Freelander 2 HSe, and have an HTC touch cruise. I was really disappointed to find I couldn't get the incoming calls to work through the speakers, the addres book synchronises ok.
 
Socalrover84 you mentioned wrong software module,  guess this is one the FL itself, I asked the dealer but they said there was no update available. My car does try to detect the phone, so where can I get the correct software module.
 

Sorry it took so long to respond. What I meatn was after I input the code, the LR2 would come up with an error saying it cannot connect to the phone. On my phone, I would have a prompt for service and a checkbox for HandsFree. I would select that and then the BT would finish setting up o the phone. Immediatly, it would connect to the car and sync the phonebook. Still working today.
