spursmaddave Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Not sure if anyone has this combination but I have a strange problem and can't find a cure, even on Avic411 forum. Basically it's a phonebook issue, apparently the iPhone puts spaces in it's phone numbers which the f900 can't recognise. So when I dial out I can choose numbers from my phonebook but when I get a call coming in all I get is the number showing up, no name as the pioneer can't recognise the number! On the avic forum there are dome suggestions but mostly for American units, if anyone has any ideas please help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yokomo Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 i get the same on my jvc , no matter who calls i get "unknown ******" even if they are in my listed numbers. So if you find a solution let us all know as it seems like another iphone naffness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srobrien Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I have the 900 bt and an iphone and don't have any phonebook issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted January 29, 2010 Author Share Posted January 29, 2010 I have the 900 bt and an iphone and don't have any phonebook issues Didn't realise you had an iPhone, thanks again for all the install help. What version iPhone you running, mines 3.0 jailbroken so maybe that's the problem? It's not the unit as it works perfect with my missus phone, but even when I change iPhone region to Australia so it gets rid of the gaps and displays as 07590123456 it still sycs to the 900bt as 07950 123456 and doesn't recognise the caller? Just found a link to get the phonebook off the unit then I can change it and overwrite it, bit of a pain but while I'm at it I might try some hacking too!

So if you find a solution let us all know as it seems like another iphone naffness Try this, didn't work on the Pioneerbut might work on a JVC... First unpair the iPhone and make sure the phonebook is empty on the HU, change the region on the iPhone to Australia (this makes all the gaps in numbers dissapear) then pair with HU, once you sent the phonebook over you can change the region back. Hope it works for you, worth a try at least, all depends how the BT system operates though I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spursmaddave Posted January 29, 2010 Author Share Posted January 29, 2010 Just got mine all sorted, went back on avic411 forum and managed to boot my f900bt into win ce and manually adjust the phonebook, while I was messing around I turned of the annoying beeps too. Might have a crack at upgrading the software to 3.0 if I'm brave enough! Hopeit works yokomo it all depends if the phonebook pairs everytime or is a one off.
