The fix: The iOS/Bluetooth compatibility problem that prompted me to start my original thread, "RL drops my iPhone 5 incoming calls after 2 seconds," is now gone. Incoming calls are now answered from the steering wheel button as smoothly as outgoing ones.

The bust: The RL now sometimes loses its link to my iPhone 5 when I'm NOT on a call. I have to go to the phone and re-select HandsFree Link to reconnect it to the car.

I'll watch to see if there's any pattern to the dropped connections, then re-post later.

Is this happening to any of you other iPhone 5 users out there?

 

Is this a continuous problem or just occasional. I have not upgraded to 6.1 yet and if this is the case I probably won't quite yet.

 

TBD. I've only tried it once.

 

I have not seen this behavior since updating. (full disclosure: I'm usually only in the car for ~15 minutes at a time )

 

Seems like it would be easiest to have one iPhone5/RL issue thread with all of the information instead of two...

 

the same would hold true for most topics, but reality say no.

 

I have the same problem as Tonycd and its quite annoying. Somtines when I make a call using the steering wheel the call will automatically transfer to my iPhone. This all started when I upgraded my iPhone software to 6.1

 

Update: I haven't had a recurrence of the problem since.

Knock on genuine curly maple…

 

cool, thanks for checking in

 

For iPhone users depress the home button and the off button until phone turns off and then restart. This is called a hard reset. I did it and now all is well with te phone and car.

 

Thanks for the advice on this alleged "hard reset". Never heard of such a thing before.

I'm still having a few odd issues with my iP5 that I never had with previous iPhones. The weird thing about it is that my wife has had zero issues with her iP5 and her 07 TL.
