Ok, hours and hours and hours spent on this thing. Hundreds of pages of discussion forums and tech bulletins. This thing WILL NOT connect!
I tried pairing the phone before I had the cradle installed, no luck.
I had the cradle installed this week, still no luck.
I tried pairing the phone to my computer just to make sure it was not my phone, no problem, sweet and easy.
I do have "bluetooth communication active" checked.
I go to "bluetooth connectable in this menu" and have tried dozens of times. Nothing happens.
I do know how to make my phone discoverable, I did it no problem this morning on my computer.
I'm ready to take a sledgehammer to the car.
Someone please help.
