Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with these phones and their 2007 Prius with Navigation/6 Disc changer. I've had a Nokia E71 that never had any problems connecting and auto connecting to my bluetooth hands free. However my girlfriend has a Nokie E75 that was really shoddy. It would connect no problem for awhile, and then would suddenly not connect. Very temperamental. It seems the Prius is really picky on which phones it will want to work with. Getting a phone that eliminates the hands free in my car is without question a deal breaker. I just wanted to know if anyone had problems connecting their Droid Incredible or Droid X to their Prius (2007) because these are the two i'm considering as my new phone. I went to the Verizon store today to see if they would let me take their display phone out to my car to try it out. Of course they were no help and gave me a flat out no. Thanks for the help, Verizon! Anyway, any feedback would be appreciated. Thank you!
I have a Droid Incredible and it connects just fine, every time. The only problem I have is getting the contacts into the car. I tried all the methods from bluetooth file transfer to sending contacts one at a time. The phone always disconnects from the car during the transfer, then reconnects after the transfer has failed. Other than that, The phone works great with my 06 with Nav.
Thank you so much for the feedback. If anyone has any experience with the Droid X, please let me know.
Timely as I am looking at the Incredible. We have both a 2005 and a 2007 Prius. Per Verizon website, the 2005 is listed as being supported but there is no mention of the 2007. From past experience with a Blackberry curve, whatever worked with 05 worked with 07. Neither allowed trasnfer of phone book but I believe that is a Verizon issue that will likely be the same with the Incredible. Ted
!So I got a Droid Incredible. Have not tried the Bluetooth yet, but my girlfriend got the Droid X and it's been connecting flawlessly. Anyone have an Evo 4G connected to their gen. 2 Prius? Might switch out because my Incredible is getting horrible reception... Thank you!
I have a droid x and it won't connect at all of course verizon is no help either. Went there and the lady was looking at my phone and asked me what kind it was! Nice... that's when I left
My droid x works just fine with my prius. a few times when it didn't connect, i noticed i had bluetooth turned off (slider on screen #2), but once i turned it back on it connected (after pairing).
My droid incredible works just fine in my 2006 #7 connected first try, all my contacts were already there from my other phone so haven’t had to try a transfer yet. If you are getting a droid, get the extended battery pack, it makes it thicker but the battery it comes with sucks!
my Droid 2 works perfectly. Funny thing, today I was chatting on my phone as my wife pulled up to pick me up, she was 30 feet away from me and the bluetooth picked up the call and she ended up talking to the person I had been been talking to. Freaked her out
i have tried to link my droid x to my 2010 with nav several times without success, my blackberry was as easy as 123. i contacted motorola and verizon, neither were of any help. the message i get on the droid is that it is paired but not connected and the message i get on the nav screen is enter the passcode on my phone but i can't figure out where to do so on the droid. am i missing something or am I having a "senior" moment?
I have a 2008 Pruis- not problem pairing the Droid INC with the car- but do not have contact list uploaded. Otherwise, it works great!
I have a Droid X (actually 2 one for me one for wifey) and they connect pretty flawlessly i was able to dump the entire contact list as well, basically set the car to receive contacts and then go into your contact list on your DX and hit: menu, more+, share, menu, select all, done, bluetooth and then wait like 5-10 min while the file is uploaded to the car. it took a while and i canceled it the first time because it was taking so long but the 2nd time i tried i just let it sit and it completed successfully.
My Druid X works fine....all contacts uploaded (using instructions found on this forum) and connects flawlessly.
