I just joined the Prius community ('07 package #5, Magnetic) and this is a COOL car! I'm wondering if anyone has attempted to transfer contacts from a Cingular 8125 PDA/Smart Phone? It connects fine and works very well, but I cannot seem to get the transfer done. <_< Any help would be appreciated!
According to the Toyota website, that phone is not supported for data transfer: Toyota Bluetooth Info I have a T-Mobile MDA (same as the Cingular 8125) and it works great except no data transfer. :angry: Oh well... -Darin <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(CerebralPaulie @ Feb 8 2007, 08:11 AM) [snapback]386965[/snapback]</div>
i dont know about cingular, but I had no problems at all transfering several hundred contacts with the motorola Q and verizon cell service. Good Luck!! Sometimes it just takes some testing and fiddling around with it..... and thats my technical advice.....

I have the same phone and the same car - but transfers only work intermiittently for me. I have to go back and test a little more, but I'm pretty sure my transfers fail whenever I have multiple phone numbers in the address book. I've been meaning to try out some other windows mobile contact management software and see if that improves the transfer. Maybe I just need an update to Windows Mobile. I'm assuming you've figured out how to get the transfer started... if not, it's one of those RT*M occasions Dave
Pardon my ignorance, but "RT*M"? I have gotton to the point of getting the car to wait for the transfer to start, but I'm unsure of how to get the Phone to start sending. I use activesync to connect to my laptop. Am I missing something?
