Hello,
after few years and 3 generations of iPhone I finally decided to change iOS to Android. So far I think it was good choice but I still need to get rid of few iOS habits and find solution for few problems. I've got Audi with RNS-E + bluetooth, My phone connects to car bluetooth without a problem. I can review phone book from car menu, check last dialed, missed calls etc. but when somebody calls me car, shows number instead of name from phone book. It used to work fine with iPhone. I suspect it might be something with country prefix. All my numbers in address book are stored with country prefix (+48...) but when somebody calls, I see number without country prefix. Or maybe it is something else... I'm not sure. Anybody else has similar problem or know solution?
Just to clarify; it does show the name instead of the number on your phone's screen regardless of whether you're peered to the car?
Only the car's display shows the number?

correct. Phone screen always shows name (peered with car or not). Car shows numbers only.

Hi.
I have an HBH-660 Akono which shows Caller ID (number) but not the name.
Was anyone able to make this work properly. Why isn't it working?
Thanks in advance,
Joao Caldeira
Wish I could get the number mine just shows the handset symbol. Someone mentioned that the name will only show up if the # is in you're contacts don't know for sure since mind does not work period on the display.
:?
Hi.
The number shows correctly, but I would like to see the name - even if I have it on memory/contacts the headset display just shows the number.
I can't remind of all my contact's number ...
What's your versions? (BT, radio, etc...)

Same problem for me...only the hanset symbol, nothing more...even when I have names and numbers in my contact database. It was the display feature which finally helped me to decide for this HS.
So if anybody as figured it out, let us know

What is your headset's version?
My box says "Packaged 04w39"...
Joao Caldeira
I will check when I'm back home
cheers Ronald
Hi ,
I just checked for you...my HBH 660 has a package no. of 04W50 so seems newer than yours.
But I found out today (from another thread). That when a call comes in, if you press the volume key (+/-) you will actually see the Calling number (not the name ...)
So progress here...Still a little strange that you have to press buttons to see the number.
My wife has the same headset (actually she lost it in the snow yesterday ), but that one worked with Calling number and name, without pressing buttons on her SE Z600 phone... So maybe out QTEK BT stack is still messing some essentials to get this info passed to the headset.??
Anybody who has it working with name (and without pushing buttons?)
Thnx
Ronald
will actually see the Calling number (not the name ...)

I don't need to press any button... strange...
I found a bug: when I receive a call with "PRIVATE" or "UNKNOWN" the heaset show the last number that called me...

I have been having trouble with my Note i717 voice dialing over Bluetooth. I pair it to my Pioneer DEH-P710BT care stereo, transfers phonebook and works when dialing with phone manually or by selecting name on deck.
My problem is with the voice dialing from the deck. I say the name but it keeps selecting a wrong name/number for each name I say. It will have the same wrong name for one name that I say, no matter how many times or clear I say it. It will give a different wrong name for another name that I say. I have tried saying last name before first name as well and it still doesn't select the right name. It feels like its just translating it wrong into text since it keeps selecting the same wrong name for each specific contact???
I had the same problem with my Nexus S. The exact same setup works fine with my Galaxy S2 i9100, HTC Nexus one and LG GW620. They all call the correct name.
-I have no lockscreen lock or password
-I have tried google voice search and Vlingo as default voice input
-Listen via Bluetooth is selected in Vlingo (tried without selected as well)
-Phone & Media profile are selected in the bluetooth settings for the deck
I am hoping there is a fix and its not some compatibility issue with certain samsung phones and my Pioneer deck. So far only 1/3 of my samsung phones work.
Anyone else have this problem? Ideas? thanks
How did you change between voice search and Vlingo as the default voice input? I have similar problems with voice dialing on a number of android phones and I'd like to try some other programs to see if it's a software fixable issue, but I can't get the phone do launch anything but Vlingo.

Settings/Voice input and output/Voice input/Voice recognition
I have the Rogers Canadian SGH-I717R.
Changing that setting on the AT&T version does nothing, unfortunately....vlingo always picks it up. Oh well, was worth a shot since I've had better luck with cyberon voice commander.
Same issue here. At first I thought it was my car 2012 Hyundai Sonata. Deleted contact list out of the car a couple of times and tried pairing multiple times. The GNote pairs fine but gets the wrong name frequently.
Mine gets the wrong contact all of the time.
Doesn't anyone else have this problem?
Sure...had that since my first Android handset. So I started using Cyberon, which works better and has a confirmation mode (since I got tired of Android ringing up some bagel shop in Hoboken every time I tried to call my mom - I live in California BTW), but the Note doesn't offer the ability to have the bluetooth multi-function button start any app other than Vlingo, which doesn't meet my needs because it doesn't work through the phone lock screen when my phone is suspended.
If I'm going to have to pull the phone out of my pocket, unlock it, and then voice dial, what's the point.
WM6.5 had this functionality working beautifully in about 2007.

Odd... are you saying you can't voice dial thru your car's BT without physically unlocking the phone?
I can voice dial just fine (locked & unlocked) on mine through the Ford Sync in my car.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA App
Are you screen locked or password locked? I haven't tried it in my car yet (don't really need to as my car can read the phone book and I can dial by touch), but Vlingo will not respond to my bluetooth headset at all when the phone is PIN/password locked.
Car bluetooth works fine for both audio and making/receiving phone calls, except for one issue:
The phonebook syncs but is ordered LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME. More problematically, there's no indication of which number for a contact I'm viewing (e.g. Work, Fax, Mobile)
My previous phone (original Samsung Epic) displayed contacts thusly:
Joe Shmo/F 800-555-1000
Joe Shmo/W 800-555-1001
whereas my Evo LTE 4G displays:
Shmo Joe 800-555-1000
Shmo Joe 800-555-1001
I could get used to just the last name/first name issue, but when I mistakenly dialed a fax machine this morning is what finally put me over the edge to post here.
On my phone, contacts are already sorted First - Last so that doesn't seem to carry over. I also can't find anything in my car bluetooth settings to control this. I have a Volvo 2012 C30 if it matters, but like I said this worked as desired on my previous phone so I don't think it's a car setting.
Thanks in advance for any insights!
It would be interesting to get another friend of yours that has an HTC phone (not LTE) and see if you get the same results, it could be a HTC way of transmitting the information to the car head or it could be how your car head gets the info from all phones. I don't believe that there is a fix for that.
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try that in the next couple days and report back.
One interesting additional data point is that the call log (recently dialed/received/missed calls) shows names in the correct First/Last order. Again though, not sure whether that's the phone or the car driving that display...
Hi, all. Did a search, couldn't find anything on this, wondering if it's only me.
I've got the T-Mobile GS3. Use a bluetooth connection with a Pioneer AVH-P3200BT head unit (http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/DVD-Receivers/AVH-P3200BT).
My contacts and Missed Calls history syncs just fine with the head unit. However, on the head unit, my Received Calls and Dialed Calls histories aren't accurate. Mostly they're filled with 5 digit numbers and a just one of my contacts (who shouldn't be in the log at all) is repeated over and over. The call log that I bring up on the GS3 is accurate.
I don't have another head unit to try to sync with, so I'm wondering if the problem is with the phone or the head unit. I'm suspecting it's the phone, as my old Vibrant's logs were always correct, regardless of whether I was running stock or CM9.
So I was just wondering if anyone else was having this problem (or whether they've even checked).
I've tried deleting the pairing on both the phone and the head unit, rebooting both, and re-establishing the pairing to no effect.
Anyone?
Bump.
Let me ask this another way. Is anybody having no problem with their Received and Dialed calls being synced with their head unit? Is yours working well (if you have this feature on your head unit)?
Amazfit Pace on standard ROM. When people call, only the number shows, not the name. This seems to be because the app doesn't pick up the contact name if the number has been stored with the international dialling code, which all of mine have. For example, if I store my home number as 020 12345678 it works and shows home when I can, if I store it as +44 20 12345678 then it doesn't show the name, just the number.
Is there any way to address this without removing the country code from all contacts?
No.
The app shows the name to the number that your provider sends to you, exactly that number.
Damn that's annoying, this is pretty much a showstopper for me - one of the main features I like about smartwatches is the ability to screen calls from it, and if possible drop them directly from the phone.
I found a solution to this problem with Amazfit support. If any one else will have the same problem, this was solution for me:
- Go to phone settings, apps and choose Amazfit, then go to Permissions and disable everything, then enable everything.
- Restart phone and watch.
- Caller ID then started to work.
Thanks, but it didn't work. Numbers that match exactly are ok, but if the number is stored with a country code and the person calls from the same company, it doesn't.
