did you enable your phone in pair mode and allow other devices to find it?

i had to re-pair my phone recently. I made sure visibility was on and that bluetooth was on. The thing I failed to do was tell my phone to search for other bluetooth devices (at the same time as the TSX does the search)

My pearl worked fine for the first 4 days (took delivery last tuesday) then Saturday the system can't find the phone. I deleted and re-added the phone, it pairs fine but when I go to call it says "no phone connected"

Very strange.

Ensure you do NOT have any other Bluetooth headsets nearby (in the same county ) paired with the phone. IMy TSX won't connect with my phone if my Jabra is turned on.

Oh,and I had the hardest time pairing (following steps properly) until I remembered that I have a Sony HBH-200 in my 3rd floor apt, which happened to be on. A good 50-60 feet away. The headset wasn't "connected," but the pairing with a headset that was nearby prevented the car from pairing with the phone. After turning off the HBH-200, the TSX paired like a champ.

As mentioned, ensure that your phone is visible ("discoverable") and searching, when the TSX pairing is initiated.

^^ what they said - you have to search from your pearl too.. .

i have a pearl and that's what I had to do...


also motorola is garbage... i used to be diehard motorola but they haven't had anything ground breaking since the RAZR - everything now looks fancy but has the same stupid OS... the BB OS is amazing
