I've a Blackberry 9000 and according to the landrover website I wont be able to download my phonebook same as in the XC90 but the xc you can store numbers by voice control rather than play with the phone while driving. Question I guess is will the hack at the start work for the 9000, can I store numbers and names by voice or am I screwed? lol Current, M135i in Estoril Blue with more extras than the cast of Ben Hur.

Hi All
I have the BT kit and was looking for a way to link to car for contacts
for N95 and on looking at the post realized that my car is speaking french or spanish
when i trigger the voice activation toggle. Have tried looking in the manual for help but
can't see anything regarding changing the language, and have switched off the remote sim
and still no contacts, help

IIRC with some versions of the BT there is only limited storage of contacts numbers and you only get the first number for a contact with multiple entries in the phone's contact list. It isn't the most advanced system and is being superceded by a Parrot based system for 2010MY.
Have you looked on the LR website here http://www.landrover.com/gb/en/ownership/bluetooth/overview.htm
to see what is transferred for your phone - there are also some manuals available there too. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Do you know if the kit was fitted as a factory option or if it was fitted after the car was purchased, in 2006 BT was optional and the PTi kit fitted by dealers was not the same as the factory fitted version and was less versatile.
The dealer fit version doesn't have the red (cancel call) and green(answer call) paddles on the right side of the steering wheel. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Is there a hands free cradle under the centre cubby box lid? IIRC that was the only way you could get all the info to be displayed, and the cradles only fitted the most common Nokias (the BT system is a Nokia system) of the era. My late 2007MY TDv8 has the cradle/charger in this location but there are no adapter cradles for either my Blackberry or my iPhone........................ so I have a poxy cable to the ciggy lighter and a bracket on the passenger side of the transmission tunnel that works for both phones. LR discontinued the cradle under the cubbybox lid in 2008MY cars - they got electrically adjusted steering columns instead! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Hello,

cant get my N97 mini to pair with the phine on my 2007 RRS HSE.
The steering wheel has the phone buttons fitted but im beginning to wonder is that all that is fitted.
there is no phone cradle but surely the bluetooth is available ?

apparantly the N97 mini is supposed to be compatible. im not that worried about the phonebook function, i just want to get the bluetooth to work.

ive tried my old Noikia 6310 also and still no luck...

any help or advice appreciated

in to landrover today and told the bluetooth module will have to be replaced as it cannot be upgraded with latest software versions for newer phones!!??!

this must the the most screwed up bluetooth design ever.
anyone can buy an very average car stereo now with bluetooth connectivity enables for "ANY" phone.

300 euro for new module is an excessive amount IMO especially for a 2007

I can reprogram the bluetooth modules with the latest software ( along as it's the PTI kit ...pair with 2121 )... Lr don't know what there doing unfortunatly ... Or if they do , they don't like taking the risk incase there is a software crash Bluetooth Exchange www.bluetoothexchange.co.uk

tell me more!

can you test mine out?

Have you ever actually connected to it ? With any phone ? Bluetooth Exchange www.bluetoothexchange.co.uk

only have this vehicle since january.
have tried the following nokia phones:
N97 mini
6230i
and 6320i

none of them will pair.

no phone fitted keeps coming up on display.
