unable to transfer phone contacts to car phone system

On your Droid, are you allowing the PBAP? It shows in the Notification Bar on the phone when you first pair the phone with the car. Pull down the Notification Bar and select the PBAP request. Check the "Always Allow" box and then "Yes". You might have to remove the Droid from the car's bluetooth and then pair with the car again. Also, try turning off your phone and restarting it after deleting the phone from the car.

 

My Sprint Hero running Android 2.1 needed to have the contact "type" changed (google, phone, contact, exchange, etc.). Try changing the type of a few of them and see if they transfer (try each type).

 

You just need to remove the Droid from the car's Nav system. That will remove your contacts and allow you to try again. It won't effect your phone.

When you pair it with the car, look for the option on the Nav screen to transfer your contacts. When your Droid is paired with the car, that action will cause the phonebook access request. It will show up in the Notification bar of the Droid.

 

If that Droid is a Motorola product you may be able to only download one phone number at a time.

 

I've never experienced that with the Droid. I have about 100 contacts and they all synced at once. It just takes some fiddling with the phone to get them to sync with the Nav system.
