iPhone 3G BMW Factory Bluetooth Question

Hi Guys,

Last week i bought an iPhone 3G and paired it up with my Factory Bluetooth kit. As EdButler stated, it worked a lot better when i completley deleted all the existing bluetooth settings in the car by holding the BT button.

The phone now works great, making calls, phonebook works, the only problem i'm still having is that when receiveing an incoming call, now i do not get the callers name on the display?

My old nokia worked fine. I have a feeling it may be down to the way my contacts have been copied from the Nokia to the iPhone (i.e - not in the 'correct' iPhone format) i will re-jig them a little and see if i can get it working.

But before I do, has anyone had similar problems with their 3G?

My car by the way is a 2003 3.0, for anyone wondering if it is possible...it is! (as the dealer told me it absolutley, catagorically would not work at all)

Thanks

create a new contact on the iphone and see if that works ?

as far as I know it copies over the contacts on first sync tho, so you may have to re-pair to get it to pull them.

thanks Andy, ill try that!

It may be something to do with the international dialling codes? I.e. the +44 (0) part

Let us know how it goes, ive completely forgotten if mine does this or not!?

Really sorry to drag up an old thread but my Iphone 3gs is doing the same thing, i can see my address book and all names present but whenever someone calls me, no name or number is displayed. I can answer the call, it is just annoying having to guess who your talking to.

I did a search for more recent threads but this is all i could find.

Any solutions to this?

Dan
