iPhone 2.0 software and Bluetooth

Interesting, I have a Jeep 2007 Compass with uConnect. It pairs with the 3G but doesn't see the phone when I try to make a call, or when I get a call. Worked fine with the older iPhone.

I did something after an hour (literally!) of fiddling, I thought it was turning TTY mode on...that made it work. Then when I left the car and came back it didn't work. I tried the same thing and it didn't make it work again. I tried it with another phone. No dice. Finally I gave up, and after the phone had been off for a minute or 3 it suddenly worked. Of corse it stopped again after I got out of the car.

When I told the nice AppleCare guy this he said he could help. Unfortunately we then got cut off and I had to call back and try again.

So I would strongly recommend you call back and see if the next guy can help! (and then post the answer...race ya!)

I am having the same problem with my 2008 Dodge Ram. I pair the phone with uconnect and it pairs successfully but does not see the phone. I work at a Chrysler dealer and we hooked up the Chrysler StarScan diagnostic to it but it's not on Chrysler's side. it's the 2.0 update. Help apple!!

Same boat with 2008 Nitro. I upgraded my old phone from 1.1.4 to 2.0 with no problem but it doesn't work with uconnect now. I unpaired and paired successfully, but it still won't work. Called AT&T and Apple and they aren't helping. I'll try Dodge on Monday.

Not sure how Chryser works, but on my Toyota there is an option to delete a paired phone.

Try unpairing any other phone you may have registered to your car.

Secondly my Toyota has a system "Initialize" setting which clears all phone settings, stored names, phones, etc...

Try that as well if available.

I have a 2008 Ram with the Chrysler Uconnect and I have the same problem with my 1st gen Iphone. I work for Dodge parts Mopar Accessories has ZERO customer service help for us dealers. They contracted all the mopar hotlines out to Bombay, India and Dodge won't be able to fix this one. Apple will have to come out with a fix for it.

i'll jump on the bandwagon!

2007 jeep grand cherokkee with uConnect

it's definitely 2.0, as 1.1.4 worked fine yesterday

wondering if this is just with uConnect or other bluetooth devices?

need a fix!

I did unpair all phones and cleared all stored phones to start from scratch. Same problem. I don't think this is an issue Apple can ignore as it affects a whole range of bluetooth products.

2008 Dodge Ram Uconnect!!!! same thing. I got it to work briefly but It did not last very long!!!!


Do we bark at Apple or at dodge?

I don't think Chrysler can do much about it.
This is solely a software issue. And I don't think we can update the software in the uConnect system without a technician.

You can add me to the list. Same deal happened with my 2008 Jeep Liberty. UConnect no longer works well with the iPhone after the 2.0 update. It'll pair easily, but it won't connect, except on very rare occasions. I have had it manage to connect 3 times since the upgrade, but it's very hit or miss whether or not it will connect. I've deleted the phone from the UConnect, I've unpaired it, I've tried the pairing procedure numerous times, I've restored the phone twice. (This is all with an original 4GB iPhone.)

Apple has to have broken something with the 2.0 upgrade, because the phone clearly was capable of connecting prior to applying the update, and I have gotten it to work since, but again, very intermittently.

Add me to the list. 2008 Ram. Iphone 3G pairs but will not connect. This is huge to me. I have been an all Apple household since the Apple II. However, I am thinking about tossing the iPhone and continuing to use my cheap Motorola RAZR, which has always worked flawlessly with the Uconnect system.

Doesn't work for me either. Jeep Commander 2007.
Pairs fine with uConnect, but system can't find the phone.

I wished I had read all of your post before I upgraded to 2.0. I have 2008 Dodge Caravan and now I can not use the handsfree set. It pairs, but it cannot find my phone. This is really bad for Apple in a society that is going handsfree and the phone does not work. I even tried to restore my phone back and no luck 2.0 is still there. What a waste of time and money! I hope that they figure out a fix and quick.

Add me to the list!

I upgraded my iPhone software to version 2 for my original iPhone.

Now my Uniden ELBT595 home phone system does not work anymore with the newest version of the iPhone software. I cannot get the system to pair with my iPhone and it does not recognize the iPhone as a bluetooth device.

I hope Apple fixes the problem as it is VERY inconvenient for a lot of users of these devices that are no longer working.

I am having the same problem with my Uniden ELBT 595. I can pair but can't connect...I need this since I only have 1 place in my house that AT&T gets strong enough service to make a call.
