ok heres the deal I have a Nokia 9500 phone (the american model is9300) its a 12 hundred dollar phone. the bluetooth has worked with every blooth device I have thrown at it except(you guessed it) my new prius. The phone finds the prius because I get hands free on the phone but the prius can't seem to find the phone. The dealer says not compatible but who knows who he talked to.is there an adapter, a trick, a way to make this work .whatever I have to spend its cheaper than not using this 1200 dollar phone. thx for any and all sugestions.
Nokia 9500 communicator I guess you could call it a laptop... only $729.99 now though. Googled! Seems like someone got it to work without problems. Is that the old PriusChat? Did someone use this to control a car in some movie? :lol: ~MT77
Yes, it was posted on the old PC board but the post is here: http://priuschat.com/Nokia-9500-works-in-Prius-t6073.html filmguy: you might want to try a PM.
strange it would work for someone and the dealer is telling me its not compatible. I PM "time for" for some insight hope I can get it working.thx to all for your help if you or anybody else have anymore ideas let me know
This was initially a problem with the Treo 650 (until Palm updated it). A work around was to initiate a call from the phone during the pairing process (while the Prius was still looking for the phone). This forced the pairing to occur. Don't know if this will work for your phone but it may be worth a try...
ok I found out that the phone uses 1.1 bluetooth and the prius uses 1.1 so why I cannot get it to find the phone is beyond me.anybody have any ideas ???thx again for all the input
Do you know anything about the LGVX9800. I was having troulbe with Verizon E815, returned and thinking abut this phone>
ok got it working there was a sub sub sub menue in the phone that asked if its ok to authorize the phone once I changed it to yes everything worked great. I can hardly wait to go back to my dealer and show him the non compatible phone working .thx to all for your help
I'll try again, don't let KISS scare you!! kiss [keep it simple] what's the best phone/cost effective that works [w/bluetooth]? and uses ALL the options offered by Prius?? mine was just got "lost"!!??
