Bluetooth Work Well?

Wow, when setting up the Bluetooth, the tutorial voice is super loud! No way to turn it down either. Then when talking the person's voice seems to fade in/out. Then it won't let me access the phone book, keeps saying the phone book is empty. I have an iPhone 4.

Are others having good luck with theirs? I'm not sure if I like it or not. Or have I not set it up right?

 

I'm currently on the hunt for a 2011 w jbl/bluetooth. Can either of you guys confirm if you can stream audio thru the bluetooth?? Thanks

 

Mine is a 2010 with JBL/Bluetooth and it does not stream audio. I don't believe they made changes for the 2011.

 

thanks guys

 

Unfortunately the built in bluetooth doesn't access the phonebook stored in the phone.
Annoying I know, considering my $20 POS bluetooth headset can do this.

What you have to do is program each person you want to call into the Headunit and it seems to do a voice recognition on the recording of the name you gave it. Kind of annoying but once you get it all set up it works fairly well.

 

I have not had any real problems with my phone and the BT in my truck. The minor inconvenience that I have encountered is that sometimes it will have some difficulty pairing with my phone and I will have to power cycle my phone. This was a problem with my old headset too so its not that big of a deal. Agreed that no access to the phone book on your phone is frustrating but its much better once fully set up.

 

Guess it's good I don't have many friends
