Bluetooth aaarrgrghh

Post by leosayer » Sat Feb 02, 2013 11:52 am

My wife's new Samsung Galaxy S3 mini stays paired for a few seconds and then goes back to connected.  Any ideas how I can get this working? I guess the phone just isn't compatible with the car.

My Samsung Galaxy S2 pair fine and stays paired.

I did the software update via a USB stick and iDrive but that hasn't helped.
