Pairing blackberry with the Z

ZSPEED · 03-08-2010, 09:51 AM

Fellow Owners: I cant seem to be able to pair my blackberry phone with the car anymore. It worked fine for 1 day then stopped. I read the manual (both car and phone) and followed the instructions and all it does is search for so long until it times out.
any pointers?

I have an aftermarket bluetooth installed in mine and have a similar problem. When I have issues I simply delete the pairing and allow a new connection.

Did blackberry just release a software update? I once had trouble with mine after updating the software. It's one of the reasons that i am done with blackberry and switched to the droid.

Mine is from work so I have to go with it. My personal one does fine.

If you haven't already, try deleting the paired connection from the phone, do a battery pull, then pair it again.

All laughing aside, I haven't had any issues with my Blackberry pairing, although I still can't figure out how to access my phonebook that I downloaded.

I have BB Bold. it works ok for making and receiving calls but when i unpair the phone the screen's blank for awhile and i can't export contacts into the car...

Cheers Schrute, it worked. I pulled the BB battery out and put it back in. It took a while to reset and find a signal. I enabled bluetooth and searched for a device and voila... Downloaded the phonebook and we're in business again.

Thannks again!
