Wicked_SVT Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 Is anyone out there having issues with the blutooth on their SYNC? Everytime I make a phonecall shortly after SYNC disconnects my phone from bluetooth. This seems to happen very frequently. I even drop it after receiving a text. I am trying to find out if it is a SYNC issue or if it is specific to iphone 4 owners. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Blackberry has never disconnected from my car. I've left my blackberry in my bedroom upstairs and took a call in my garage not knowing I didn't have it with me. The phone didn't disconnect until I was halfway down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rag Top Day Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 I would try another phone and see what happens. Also check syncmyride.com for any updates for your cars sync system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDrool Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 I know some phones are better than others. My phone is sometimes sporadic, sometimes not. There have been times when the sync would not happen at all and I hat to go a new sync process to sync back up. And, my phone is not text capable on the sync, talk only. This would be compatibility issues since my wife alse has a '10 Fusion Hybrid and it behaves exactly the same. Go figure, exact same system.

dwcallaway Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 I'm pretty sure every time I get a text message, the sync bluetooth boots me. Oh yeh, Iphone 4. Doesn't bother me. I know sync is an MS product and I'm just happy the thing actually works at all with Iphone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabinetman Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 I too have this issue with my iPhone 4 and Sync. I don't always get booted, but it happens more often than I care for. I have tried a Sprint Evo and had similar problems. I also have issues with Sync wanting to stream audio even if I have autoplay off. The only way I could get it to stop was to make sure that Line in is selected as the source for media or keep a separate iPod plugged into the USB all the time. I have these issues in both my 2011 GT500 and 2011 F250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you have the latest software update. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to be having more frequent problems after the software update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terryj Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 You guys with the Iphone 4 know you're holding it wrong! My G1 and now G2 work flawlessly with both of my sync systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to take it to the dealer to try and fix the issue Those handjobs at the dealer will take 2 weeks to "solve" the issue, I'll be without my car, and then I'll come to find out the issue was never even resolded. I've lost all faith in dealers being able to fix issues. Hopefully, someone here can come up with a solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamlightning03 Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 --- This might just make me switch to a Droid phone. You know i debated this also. I have a Srint HTC phone without issue. But, im wanting the text feature and so far no spint phones are compatable with this feature even though their droids. So,i go to Verizon to check out the X. Sure enough text works great, really cool. Ive been with sprint 6 years and was ALMOST ready to switch just for this simple feature until we discussed money. A comparable plan to what i have now would be double what i pay now!! Thanks but no thanks Verizon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbrisson Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 My iphone 3 was flawless, when I changed to a 4 I started having similar drop issues, only upon initially entering the car. If i didnt drop and then reconnect from the phone it would have issues, if I let it just find the phone it would hold for a while and then drop either when switching to a call or to media. Software update slowed this a a little but it still happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seabee Posted November 4, 2010 Report Share Posted November 4, 2010 No iPhone 4G, but iPhone 3Gs. Works great in both my 2011 GT500 and 2009 F150, systems appear the same other than HD radio in GT500. I have had it not connect once in a great while, but otherwise wocks great. Only issue that I have with it, is if you do not have an iPod plugged in the USB, the bluetooth automatically starts playing music on the iPhone. Easy to fix just cycle media to the HD, CD or Line in. Great here in CT, where talking on a handheld will get you a ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colleton Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 I have an iPhone 4 and it works perfectly with Sync on my 2011 GT500. I've never had any issues with blue tooth disconnecting. I have an old 16GB iPod touch connected via USB for music, and use the iPhone strictly for placing and receiving calls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
