Xperia S - ICS4.04 : Car cannot sync phonebook over bluetooth

fdhthr — Fri, 23 Nov 2012 09:23:02 GMT

Hello,

I just bought a xperia S smartphone and performed the ICS4.0.4 upgrade as suggested by the vendor.

Phone works like a charm but I have a little problem with the integrated car kit of my car :

I paired the phone like a charm and see mobile operator name on the console. I also

see the bar signal level display without any problem.

I can dial and receive call, very good communication quality ( by the way, far better in regard with my old Samsung I900).

The problem I have is I cannot get the phone contact list sync'ed with my Volvo car.

Phone is supported (tests done with the 2.3.7) so I believe it has to be a prob with ICS4.0.4.

I found different users getting probs with bluetooth sync with ICS.

Any idea how to fix this ?

Thanks for your great support

Thierry

Finally, fixed the issue :

Deleted Xperia device from Car's connected device list,

Deleted Car from Xperia's connected device list,

Added car from Xperia device and allowed permanently SIM Access from Car.

Syncing perfectly now.

I did earlier added the Xperia from Car handsfree, not the Car from the Xperia mobile.
