BQ Aquaris E5 Volkswagen Phaeton 2011 (VW Navigation System RNS810) OTA14 Finally IT WORKS! But from the beginning:
After the OTA 14 Update I tried again to connect to my in car bluetooth system and make calls. Connecting (still) worked. Next I tried to make a call and again no sound from the speakers. After random changes on both ends (phone and in car system, of course with no systematic tracking), I tried again to call somebody and now speakers/mic worked perfectly. I left my car, entered again, phone reconnected and now again no sound!?! Wtf? But I was hooked, if it worked one time, it has to be possible to make it work again ... It took me some time to track down the necessary conditions for a stable and working bluetooth connection: 1. In the phones bluetooth settings the auto connect button for the connection to the in car bluetooth system has to be disabled. If this is not disabled, the car and the phone try to establish the connection at the same time and things get messed up, up to the point where both systems eventually freeze. 2. The car system can only establish the bluetooth connection, if the screen of the phone is unlocked. That's all. If you pay attention to these 2 points, really everything works perfectly (for Volkswagen systems)! Even streaming media via bluetooth works! I'm really excited, thank you very much for your work! I use my phone for business and desperately needed a working hands free system in my car. Unlocking my screen after entering the car is no big deal to me. Switching back to android is now definitely off the table. Thank you again and keep up the great work! I really love the usability and GUI of my ubuntu phone! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1435040 Title: Ubuntu Phone does not connect to car-bluetooth Status in Canonical System Image: Confirmed Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in ubuntu-system-settings package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: With my FORD Focus Car, pairing does not work.
