If you download the correct version of the Contact Manager (check there is one first), then you'll probably be OK.

Personally I had so much trouble with an N70 (and Nokia's attitude) I won't be darkening Nokia's doors for a very long time.

The A8 and the RS4 use different phone modules.

IIRC the 8GB N95 is OK with the RS4 (so long as you've loaded the Nokia Contact manager), but I don't think the "standard" N95 is.

The N95 8Gb compatibility with the RS4 is s**t, in the sense that, even with the "Q" BT module and the Download Manager, you will still only get the Phonebook uploaded to the car.

No "Received Calls" list, no "Last Dialled" list etc etc.

And inspite of posting all over the WWW to get some advice for my problem, I still cannot for the life of me figure out why, even though I store my names in the phone using the standard <Firstname>, <Lastname> fields, when it uploads to the car, it seems to screw up the fields, so that what is displayed on the car Phonebook is the numbers field!

Which is about as much use as a chocolate teapot....unless you happen to have memorized all your bloody numbers and who they belong too!

I give Nokia & Audi 1/10 for managing this situation.

If your RS4 doesn't have the "Q" module, you won't get s**t.

Nokia got so upset at me when I joined in discussions on the Nokia UK Discussion Forum about this issue that they have banned me!

Instead of playing silly bugg..s they should fix the Bluetooth implementation in the Symbian stack they use. Other phone manufacturers don't have this problem (the SE and HTC phones I've owned have been 100%), so IMHO it's just Nokia being lazy and/or arrogant.

J,

are you sure your phone is a 95 8Gb? I'm probably way off the mark but i seem to remember your phone is silver?? I think the 95 8gb phones only come in black??

Looking to buy a Samsung Omnia today but i can't find out anywhere if the handset is compatible with the RS4's BlueTooth.

Mine is retrofit & is the earlier BT Module. My current Nokia N95 connects fine but only allows call out/in with no phonebook etc. I naturally would be happier if this new handset allowed me full functionality.

Checked the Audi website but could find nothing on handset compatibility.

Haven't seen any info on that handset wrt compatibility with the Audi non-MMI Bluetooth.

I think you'll be the first to find out...

Anyone used the HTC Touch Diamond with it yet? (Mine arrives tomorrow)

Post by **PetrolDave** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 7:11 pm

I use an HTC TyTN II - and that's 100% compatible with both WM6 or WM6.1
