This post has gotten a lot of attention in the last couple of weeks, with a lot of people asking why their phone or PDA doesn’t work. Here are some more info from Mercedes and the bluetooth module.
Sending and receiving e-mails, making phone calls, checking pictures and presentations – mobile executives can carry their office with them in the BlackBerry® handheld computer. Now, for the first time, the new Mercedes-Benz Bluetooth® (HFP) telephone module allows BlackBerry® 8700g, 8700v and 8707v models to be connected wirelessly to a Mercedes-Benz passenger car.
The new accessory from Mercedes-Benz Accessories GmbH makes using the phone while in the car even safer and more convenient. The biggest advantage is that the handheld or mobile phone can be left in your jacket pocket or handbag. The wireless Bluetooth connection between the device and the vehicle is established automatically. The module features a single button, which is used to activate the pairing process, where the mobile phone or BlackBerry® is connected to the module for the first time. Once pairing has taken place, connection is always automatic. Integration on board also allows safe, intuitive control of the telephone functions via the multifunction steering wheel, the audio system and the central instrument cluster display.
The Bluetooth® (HFP) telephone module, which is also suitable for Motorola PEBL U6, Nokia 6131, Nokia 6111, Nokia N70, Sony Ericsson K610i, Sony Ericsson W550i and BenQ-Siemens EF81 mobile phones, acts as an extension of the pre-installation for mobile phone with universal interface, a feature which is already present in many of the latest Mercedes-Benz models (optional extra Code 386). The module is simply inserted into this pre-installation in the centre armrest. The Mercedes-Benz Bluetooth® (HFP) telephone module, in independent-design closed-box format, will be available from Mercedes-Benz sales partners from March 2007, and is priced at EUR 250.00, including VAT (price applies to German market).
High-end telephony: the second generation of the Mercedes-Benz Bluetooth® (SAP) telephone module offers even more possibilities
The familiar Bluetooth® telephone module with SAP (SIM Access Profile) technology can now also be used with the Nokia business-optimised E60, E61 and E70 mobile phones. Business executives who share use of the same car will appreciate the fact that up to four telephones can now be paired with the module. Once a device has been paired, the module instantly recognises it as soon as it is within range and automatically establishes a connection. The SIM card PIN (Personal Identification Number) can now be stored too, making the system even more convenient to use.
Alternative for mobile phones without Bluetooth®: genuine mobile-phone holders from Mercedes-Benz
If your mobile phone does not feature Bluetooth®, the best way to establish contact between the mobile phone and the on-board hands-free system is using one of the range of special mobile-phone holders. The various mobile-phone holders from Mercedes-Benz Accessories GmbH are tailored to the Mercedes-Benz vehicle models in both technical and visual terms. They allow the mobile phone to be operated using the multifunction steering wheel, and the telephone status is indicated in the multifunction display. While inserted in one of these mobile-phone holders on board, the mobile’s battery is also charged. Before you can use one of these holders, your vehicle must be fitted with the optional extra pre-installation for mobile phone with interface (Code 386) or with the optional extra Mercedes-Benz mobile phone (Code 388).
The Mercedes-Benz Accessories GmbH range is very extensive and is constantly updated. It currently includes genuine Mercedes-Benz mobile-phone holders for the following mobiles
Nokia 3120, 6020, 6021, 6100, 6210, 6220, 6230, 6230i, 6310, 6310i, 6610, 6610i, 6820, 6822, 7250i

March 19th, 2007 at 1:39 pm
Hello Susan,
The BlackBerry 8700g, 8700v and 8707v models can be connected wirelessly to a Mercedes-Benz passenger car. Hope that helps. If you have trouble connecting the device I would go back to the dealer, or find a tech expert who can help.
The other phones that can be connected are,

Hello,
Will the new module support other devices on the universal Handsfree profile?
I have an Orange SPVM3100. This currently does not work at all with the Bluetooth MHI adaptor that I currently have. It is a weird variant of SAP. (the phone supports SAP and works with the VW passat SAP bluetooth kit).
Anyway I was hoping that this new module will solve all my problems.
March 22nd, 2007 at 11:10 am
Hey Paul,
The bluetoooth module does support SAP, but not sure if it will work with your phone. Here what they had to say about that.
The familiar Bluetooth® telephone module with SAP (SIM Access Profile) technology can now also be used with the Nokia business-optimised E60, E61 and E70 mobile phones. Business executives who share use of the same car will appreciate the fact that up to four telephones can now be paired with the module. Once a device has been paired, the module instantly recognises it as soon as it is within range and automatically establishes a connection. The SIM card PIN (Personal Identification Number) can now be stored too, making the system even more convenient to use.

Hello,
Got one this morning and it works – hurray!! (Orange SPV M3100 (HTC TyTn/Hermes) and Orange SPV C600)
Partnumber = B67875877
You may need Jetware Mobile to enable phonebook import – depending on phone model - but other than that it is out the box compatible. :-))

The capacity of computer will not allow a full download of my contacts list. Does any one have a solution to this problem? I am using a Blackberry Pearl in a S550 Mercedes.
March 31st, 2007 at 12:08 pm
I have a new 2007 e class with phone kit for nokia 6230i installed. I have a problem with this phone kit, if I store my numbers with an international dialling code, 00353 in my case because I am in ireland, the car kit will not recall the name from the memory. This was not a problem in my last car (2004) . Can anyone help , please?
April 1st, 2007 at 11:55 am
paul, I’m seeking to get to the bottom of my own bt issues here in the us with my new GL 450 and i may have a partial answer for you. With no concrete evidence to back it up, I feel that there’s two different types of BT profiles - an older spec and, now, a newer spec. I got into it because we in the us have limited devices that work well and have a full feature set - it’s fricken’ maddening. from what I’ve discovered, there’s a newer profile (SAP-Server) that’s named differently than the older variant (SIM Access-Server). I’ve read about frustrations both ways - older phones won’t hook up to the newer module, and vice versa.
I remember reading that Nokia was to propose a new SAP set of profiles (server and client) a few years ago, and from what I found on the Bluetooth.org web site, almost all of the approved SAP devices are made by Nokia. I suspect the newer listing likely relates to an evolution of the stack code meant to access a phone’s SIM AND take control over some of the phone’s capabilities (such as transfer the receiving antenna from the phone to the vehicle). As engineers are notoriously poor communicators, I suspect that I may never know what the difference is. I also suspect that some ROMs can be adapted with modified stacks (for phones that make economic sense, like the RAZR variants) that have chosen to license the code from whom owns it. I have a couple of links to peruse…
http://qualweb.bluetooth.org/Template2.cfm?MaxResults=all&LinkQualified=QualifiedProducts&SortCat=QualifiedDate&SortOrder=DESC&search_category=92&search_option=ProductName&search_string=&search_SpecVersion=All&crit=–
http://qualweb.bluetooth.org/Template2.cfm?MaxResults=all&LinkQualified=QualifiedProducts&SortCat=QualifiedDate&SortOrder=DESC&search_category=66&search_option=ProductName&search_string=&search_SpecVersion=All&crit=–
and you’ll see a difference in the “newness” of the devices.
April 2nd, 2007 at 3:23 pm
A quick follow up. I picked up a MB BT adapter this afternoon; I installed it in about 2 minutes. My iPaq 6515, which worked in my old Benz (a W203), offers only HF operation now. My GF’s newer Cingular SYNC (SGH-A707) also offered only HF operation. A new Cingular Motorola RAZR V3xx (3.5G for the US) connected quickly and synced the phone’s SIM and address book and used GL’s antenna about 5 seconds later. My next task is to get the V3xx to talk to the GL and a TomTom GO 910 so I can get my traffic updates, however, I think that the Moto isn’t capable of multipoint… Sigh.
April 3rd, 2007 at 8:57 am
Jeffrey are you saying that the Blackberry pearl 8100 does work with the new Merc bluetooth kit but that it has a limit on the number of contacts you can download? I am in process of obtaining the 8100.
April 4th, 2007 at 6:38 am
I’m going through this painful process on my new B180.
The limit is, in fact, the capacity of your SIM card because
SAP ( SIM Access Profile) will take the date from your SIM
which is limited to 250 numbers. Note: not from data in memory
so you need to transfer to SIM. New SIM cards should resolve this issue.
My new Nokia E65 works fine put I have to re-pair every time I enter the car. Just trying to work around this.My E65 does ask me for a pass key but I do not know which pass key, as yet. Any ideas ?
April 4th, 2007 at 3:51 pm
Jeffrey, i am having same problem re gl 450–let me know if you find solution
April 9th, 2007 at 2:29 am
Just bought 56 plate c-class and husband and I have to get new phones, but the list they gave us doesn’t seem much of an upgrade for me as I have a Sony Ericsson W800i ( hubby has a razr v3). I want a new phone as I haven’t upgraded for a while and we may as well have the same phones (do we have to have the same, or just one from the list?).
Not very good with technology (obviously) - I usually get my business partner to sort all this out for me. She always insists on Sony Ericsson, and I must admit we have never had a problem.
Is there any sort of download to be able to use any different phones as the ones I want to upgrade to are much prettier than the ones we sould be buying! (sorry for being such a girl!)
Thanking you in anticipation of your help.
April 14th, 2007 at 7:40 pm
I have had good luck only with the HP 6945 it syncs contacts, dialed and recieved call and plays the ringers through the speakers. Just a little to big for me. What are the other completely compatible phone for the MB Bluetooth.? I’m buying different phones that don’t completely sync the Sony a790, Motorola RIZR Z3. I have a GL 320 CDI
April 16th, 2007 at 9:12 am
Hi- anyone tried to connect an O2 phone wirelessly on the Original MB bluetooth integration?
April 16th, 2007 at 12:27 pm
So should a blackberry pearl work with the previous bluetooth adpater? I bought the adapter about 4 months ago, and cant get it to work with my pearl. It finds the phone, I am asked to enter the displayed code into the phone, I do this but then Command shows the message ‘no network’. Could there be something stupid I am forgetting to do?
April 16th, 2007 at 8:36 pm
Is there any sprint pcs phone that can work with the V60 OR do I have to change my service provider to Verizon, T-mobile or Cingular.
April 17th, 2007 at 4:38 am
I have a CLS with Bluetooth SAP Module fitted. It all worked perfectly with my Nokia 6230i, even fully downloading all of the contacts from my phone memory as well as the SIM card. I have now changed to phone to a Nokia N95, and it pairs up and works perfectly, and until recently worked with the contacts loaded into the MB Blutooth module. However, as I frequently amend numbers in my telephone book, as is my normal practice I dialled 0000 to refresh the stored contacts in the MB Module. With the Nokia N95 (it always worked perfectly with the 6230i) this had the effect of deleting all of my contacts (from the module not the phone), and the phone displays a message under the Sync screen “System error”. Clearly the phone is trying to synchronise otherwise it would not have opened the SYNC screen, but they do not seem to want to talk. Anyone have any ideas? Do I need to create a SYNC profile in the phone?
April 17th, 2007 at 11:45 am
i have a sony ericsson p990i.does it support SAP2?
April 17th, 2007 at 3:05 pm

April 19th, 2007 at 2:42 am
Hi all,
I think we are facing the same problem : we all ahve different phones and like to change frequently ( more or less).
Instead of looking for specific cradles for our phones I think Mercedes has made something that would fit to us by using the MFP protocol.
Like this we would be able to use Bluetooth phones MFP able.
I have a W810i, W880i, K800i SE phones and will get back to you as soon as i received the new blutooth cradle.
Regards
April 25th, 2007 at 6:53 am
I’ ve a Sony Ericsson K800i.
1. Do you know if is there any MB crandle for this model?
2. Does it work with second generation of MB SAP crandle?
Thank’s in advance
April 27th, 2007 at 12:55 pm
Hi George,
1. NO cradle for the K800i
2 K800i is not Sap compatible …
Bye
April 29th, 2007 at 3:19 pm
E220 W211 pre-installed Nokia Car Kit 2003……. Is there no way to integrate a Bluetooth adapter for this car? How had can it be to produce a unit that sits in the Nokia cradle and allows you to connect your phone via Bluetooth? I’m sure that the American market did exactly this for the pre-installed Motorola V60’s. Come on Merc get a grip look at what your customers need and please develop a unit that will allow the pre 2004 cars to benefit.
May 3rd, 2007 at 9:28 am
I have used the Blackberry Pearl and it worked in my new S550 just by turning it on. Only problem is the limitation on phone numbers accepted into the car’s phonebook. I do have over 1450 contacts, all with multiple numbers, and only can get to the letter K for names. I have to use my handset to call all others.
May 4th, 2007 at 8:28 am
Hello,
I will have a S class mercedes soon which supports mobile phone with SAP profile. That is what the Car dealer told me. Now Could someone tell me if any Samsung SGH-D840 supports this future. Otherwise which other samsung or any other phone on the market does that ? Thank you.
May 4th, 2007 at 7:15 pm
Hi bougth a new C class mercedes and can not conect to my ipaq 6945, exactly when I enter the number to comunicate, says ” failed” Is it compatible or I am missing something?
Sorry about my english. I hope you understand me.

Hi,
I bought and installed the mb bluetooth cradle for the V3 phone. It worked fine with the v3. Unfortunately the v3 died after being soaked with water. I got a replacement upgrade from cingular (v3xx). It appears to pair okay. Asks for the pass key and then it bonds. However, the phone then says unable to connect and the command system says the phone is not on. Any suggestions to remedy this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hey,
got a new 2007 320 E-class. It shows a “bluetooth” option on the system window, and does detect any powered bluetooth phones around. The problem is it does disconnect after 5 seconds and does NOT connect at all after that. When I press the “call” button on the dashboard, it comes up with “please connect telephone” screen. WHY? how do I go around this? sent it to the dealership, it came back with another kit, also works via bluetooth, but with a different mic and a separate different button that they installed next to the gear stick!
When it prompted for a passkey I keyed in 0000, then the phone asked me to key in a pass key, so I used the same, 0000. paired for these 5 seconds and that was about it. Phone is nokia E60.
suggestions?
Thanks a bunch,
May 19th, 2007 at 1:02 am
Hi,
If it is a Comand aps installed on your benz, the bluetooth function is only used in order to pair with smartphones to download contact informations.
Do you have the pre equipment phone ? ( cradle named UHI) if yes,you should try the new bluetooth module mentionned on the top of the page, i’ve juste installed it and it works perfectly with my 3 bluetooth phones : Sony-Ericsson W810i, K800i, W880i .
Au revoir !
May 19th, 2007 at 11:26 pm

i have had a similar situation in an E320
if you get any info on how to expand the phone book capacity can you e-mail mercedesjb@tiscali.co.uk
May 20th, 2007 at 12:26 am
To ‘Pookie SportCoupe”,
I too have a K800i and am finding it very difficult to find a solution that allows me integrate my phone with the existing telephone interface. You say that there is a cradle now for the K800i and you also mentioned that the K800i is not SAP compatible? So it still works with the bluetooth interface? I have not got the Command APS installed in my car, only the standard UHI, do you think this makes a difference? I am trying to follow-up with my dealer but I’ve found this website far more helpful!
Any further advice would be much appreciated.
Kind Regards
May 20th, 2007 at 8:07 am
New S class wiyh pre installed motorola v3 cradle. When phone is placed in cradle, command shows “activating phone” which runs for about 15 seconds and then shows “telephone off”. Telephone on had already been selected in command. Any advice please.
May 21st, 2007 at 9:40 pm
HI Euged,
It doesn’t matter wether you have or not the Comand Aps, the most important is that your car is equipped with the UHI phone option ( option code 386 ?)
Concerning the SAP compatibility, it means that the K800i is not working with the two previous bluetooth cradles but with the one mentionned on this page, it is the HPF capability. So you ‘ll have access to all the functions but the SMS are not available. You do have two choices : on one hand you choose the K800i cradle : all the features ( SMS included) but if you change your mobile phone, you’ll have to change by the way the cradle. Or you prefer the bluetooth cradle, like this, you can change your phone at any time , leave it on your pocket …
The price in France is 268 euros for your information.
Regards
May 21st, 2007 at 9:50 pm
To John Blackwood
Hi, the fact is that the car is downloading you phone contacts and because of the 1450 contacts and details, your car’s memory is completely full.
As you noticed, the multiple details like different phone numbers are all shown when you are consulting your contacts.
As far as i’m concerned, you ‘ll have to dial directly on your phone if your contact is after K and there’s no workaround…
Regards
May 22nd, 2007 at 5:40 pm
I am reading about problems loading 1450 contacts into the bluetooth system of a Benz. I have a GL 450 and the bluetooth is working fine, but I must be missing something simple. Every time I try to transfer my address book from my blackberry pearl to my bluetooth in the vehicle, I get the message “tranfer failed - check your bluetooth instructions…” What am I missing in the basic attempt? I only have 100 or so contacts. Any help is appreciated.
May 23rd, 2007 at 9:59 pm
Hi Chuck,
On you Mobile phone is there a menu concerning your attached devices ?
Can you select MB Phonesystem and look what options are applied to this device, check if the option always authorize is enabled.

May 24th, 2007 at 6:00 am
I’m a commercial vehicle salesman (Mercedes) in Lincoln. just incase anyone was wondering, the bluetooth SAP cradle/adapter work in the MB Vito and Sprinter vans too. With command or radio upgrade to Sound 20 (standard in C & E class) They work with the Nokia N95 and 3250 too. Thank you Pookie SportCoupe, been waiting on K800i for ages!!! as usual the net is the best source of info!!
May 25th, 2007 at 4:30 pm
Hi again everyone,
I am still waiting to here from my MB dealer regarding the K800i cradle and the bluetooth SAP cradle adapter. I have been finding this website more useful than them!
I got an email a little while ago from Daimler-Chrysler AG in Australia a little while ago (Dec 06) and they said to me that because the K800i uses the 3G network that they were not going to make a cradle for it. This has obviously changed, but for those techies out there, is the K800i different depending on the country we’re from. I’m from Australia?
Cheers
May 26th, 2007 at 1:35 pm
Hello bought a used 2004 E320 and didn’t realize it wasn’t wired for the integrated phone system. I’m not interested in paying $2500 the dealer wants to install. Any suggestions or alternate that might not be so expensive?
Thanks,
May 28th, 2007 at 3:52 am
Hi Euged,
The K800i is the same all around the world, the made a k790i and a k800i in order to provide a 3G capable or not phone.
To John,
If you want a integrated wireless phone system, you can see Parrot, Nokia or Sony Ericsson products : they all have a sytem to connect by bluetooth with … Bluetooth phones. Like our integrated systems, you have the sound on you speakers and a small microphone. Very convenient and about 300 euros installed. Available worldwide !!

June 6th, 2007 at 8:01 pm
Hi everyone! Wonder if someone could help me. Just bought a 2003 CLK and it currently has a cradle for a Nokia 6220, 6230, 6230i.
If i bought the bluetooth cradle mentioned, could i just swap the cradles over to utilise my k800i?
Many thanks
June 7th, 2007 at 4:04 am
a question re the BB devices, currently when I connect my phone to the command centre I can see and create txt from the services- Email option.
With the new bluetooth option, would I be able to view my BB emails on the command system ?
thanks in advance
June 8th, 2007 at 12:13 am
To Richard,
All you have to do is to order the cradle and then swap it.
With you K800i ( i have the same one ) you have 2 solutions : buy the K800i specific cradle or the Bluetooth cradle.
On one hand you have all the features like reading and composing messages, in the other hand, you have a wireless connection but no accesses to your messages. On both solutions, no problems regarding your contact list.
To Andy,
I do not have A BB to test but i think that you’ll loose this function like we are not to create Sms anymore .

Just got SLK with the new bluetooth cradle adaptor Part number B67875877 (UK) and trying to pair it with sony ericsson w810i. Pairs ok, can make and receive calls, but no phone book transfer. It says Phonebook loading but it doesnt do it. Similar with Nokia N73 - can make and receive calls but no phone book loading (not even an attempt).
Any offers?
And what phones will actually work with this thing?
June 11th, 2007 at 8:57 am
I just bought for £250 a bluetooth cradle to try to get my blackberry working . After an hour the service engineer got the phone working but it seems to bypass the Comand messaging and other facilities . The Navi addresses also seem to be in the phone book .
I have left the problem with MB UK as this is all not good enough especially when other Bluetooth devices cost a few pounds and we have already paid for phone wiring
June 11th, 2007 at 1:38 pm
I have just tried to connect my K610i with the Bluetooth module.
Works well but does load my numbers from the SIM.
Anyone else having this problem ?
June 14th, 2007 at 1:09 pm
I am trying to pair my Blackberry 8100 Peal with the Benz bluetooth. The trouble is the phone gets recognised but I cant seems to pair it after keying the numbers into the phone. It simply comes back with “unable to pair MBxxxx. Is there a way to activate the remote sim option as in the Nokia phones?
June 18th, 2007 at 9:41 am
Just got ML with the new bluetooth Part number B67875877 (IT) and trying to pair it with Nokia N95 with SAP (remote SIM function). Pairs ok, can make and receive calls, but nothing is transferred. The problem is that the system take the connection as an headset and not as a carkit as it should even if the latter is set to default profile.
I made several attempts and I came to the conclusion that the only hope would be a MB firmware upgrade. Does anybody know if it is something that use to happen and how can someone be aware of the update available?
Many thanks in advance.

Hi!
I have a 2006 S320 with phone kit installed, working with my Nokia 62301i in it’s cradle. I am thinking of upgrading my phone to a Nokia E65. Anybody got ideas / experience of how this can be done? I do not want to give up my contacts being accessible through the COMMAND screen but I can live without SMS in the car.

Hello everyone,
Just received my New Mercedes C 220CDI Sport Coupé and I bought a HPF Bluetooth adpador. I also have a nokia N70 mobile phone, and the synchronization it is ok (I can receive and answer call) but I cannot see my agent in the Command APS.
Do you know the way of see my agent in the command?
Is it problem of my mobile phone? MB says this mobile (nokia N70) is compatible with HPF Bluetooth…
Any solution?? Update or install any application in my mobile phone??
Thank you very much in advance for your support

To Terry - you posted the msg below
Terry Davidson - April 4, 2007
I’m going through this painful process on my new B180.
The limit is, in fact, the capacity of your SIM card because
SAP ( SIM Access Profile) will take the date from your SIM
which is limited to 250 numbers. Note: not from data in memory
so you need to transfer to SIM. New SIM cards should resolve this issue.
My new Nokia E65 works fine put I have to re-pair every time I enter the car. Just trying to work around this.My E65 does ask me for a pass key but I do not know which pass key, as yet. Any ideas ?
+++++++++++++++
Have you found a solution to this problem? I am finding the same isse with my E65 in a ML320CDI
July 5th, 2007 at 2:24 pm
Is there a limit to how many numbers are stored/transferred? I read earlier 1450 - is that contacts or numbers? I tried looking for official information but could not find it.

I have CLK 240 - year 2004. I have new Nokia E65 and Bluetooth B67875877. Problem is - I can hear correctly and clear in my car but the caller from the other end keeps having bad echo on every word they say. They can hear me clearly but everything they say ( every word) bounces back to them as an echo, so therefore they do not want to call. these are business calls, so how I can get this fixed. No one seems to know how help me with this. Can you please help ? Suzanne
July 11th, 2007 at 3:45 am
Hi Suzanne,
Did you tried with another phone ?
Try to lower the volume of the phone, the echo is caused by the microphone as far as i’m concerned.
Regards
July 11th, 2007 at 4:54 pm
thanks, but have tried that and all it does is quieten the echo but does not remove the echo from the callers end.. any other suggestions

have problem with sync my htc tytn with mercedes bluetooth. it will not update phone book after initial entry.any one had the same problem
August 3rd, 2007 at 6:45 am
I have a Merc R Class 320 CDi with COMAND, Bluetooth pre-wiring and the correct cradle for my NOKIA 6230i. My phone works fine when it is in the cradle, but I cannot then also pair up my wife’s NOKIA 6230 via the Bluetooth link while we are both in the car.
It seems to pair ok, then drops the link. Also, it is not clear from the handbook which numbers / codes you need to ente to link succesfully.
There seems little point having the Bluetooth function when it will not connect more than 1 device at a time. Having road tested the BMW 7 series before plumping for the Merc, I found the BMW bluetooth function superb - it auto-connected to any paired device when you got near the car, a real bonus if you’re both operating phones on a long drive. (However, the seats also crippled my back, hence going for the Merc!!).
Any ideas?

I have recently had the bluetooth module installed in my 06 500SL. I’m using a RAZR v3. Everything syncs up fine and connectivity is good in my garage but when on the road I have frequent dropped calls (2 to 3 in a 15 minute period). Is anyone else having this problem? I’m on cingular and have no problem with dropped calls with this phone otherwise.
Would anyone reccomend a different phone for signal strength?
Thanks in advance

could you help me with my SAP telephone module and Nokia n95?
It pairs up, but I’m unable to transfer the phone book (can only make and receive calls….)
Pls help!
Many thanks

August 8th, 2007 at 6:55 am
again on pairing N95 with SAP module, I forgot to say that the car is SLK with Command 50
Sometimes it recognizes the SIM numbers (if I store only a few…), but never worked with the phone book
I’m getting crazy about it…Is there anything to be done with the settings??
Thank you again

Can any advise whether they have been able to successfully pair a blackberry 7100g Bluetooth® telephone module with SAP? I have a 2006 CLK which the dealership has been successfully able to pair the 7100g with telephone module to send and receive calls, but will not upload the SIM card phone directory. Is the 7100g’s Bluetooth SAP version different (or not present) to that of the 8700 series which has been certified by MB.
August 13th, 2007 at 12:44 pm
I have just bought a C180K with a bluetooth adaptor and a nokia N70 and have the same problem as SoTiLLo - Málaga - Spain. My contacts don’t show up. The display say’s memory empty. I have no problems with pairing (the adaptor comes with a code which is not 0000). The dealer originally told me it some times takes 20 minutes for the contacts to transfer which I found strange. I have updated the firmware on my phone to the latest from the nokia website using nokia update. Still no luck.

Hello,
I have a problem viewing my contact details on an E550 the details are as follows:
I have around 400 contacts on my Razr V3 phone which I sync with Microsoft outlook and works fine, on my phone I have a contacts that have a cell number, office numbers and home number, and I can differentiate these numbers for a particular contact by the appropriate icon ( ie for home, cell or office) that appears besides their names. I have synced the same ( using Bluetooth) with my E550, and all the contacts appear on the address book dashboard and I can make calls. The issue I am facing is there is no way I can differentiate between a particular contacts home, cell or office number as I do not see any icon besides their name.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Pookie Sportcoupe, you appear to be the most knoledgeble source on Mercs telephone options. Of course you could just be out of business if Mercedes actual got their act together and produce a coms package that functions to the same standard as say the engine.
I own a 2005 CLK 2.7 cdi had the wired car kit installed at the time of manuafacture. The phone model was Sony Ericisson 610i./ 630i Unfortunately the phones rarely last as long as the car leace. Sony 630i are no longer available and all the new sony, eq 750i have different connections. What do you suggets. bearing in mind that I will only keep the car another 5 months. Can these blue T option be transfered to a new merc in 5 months time.

Hello,
I have a bluetooth SAP in my B Class which is fully compatible with my Nokia 6280/ 6288 mobile. However, when I receive an SMS, the system notifies me but doesn’t allow me to view the message. And, subsequently the message is never delivered to my actual mobile. Very frustrating!
I am in Australia and MB Melbourne hasn’t been able to help me with this prob - apparently our cars/ systems are not set up to read SMS’s… ?? Anyone had a similar issue? Would appreciate some advice.

hi
i have a mer clk 270 05 and its prewired for phone but i have a nokia 6300 anyone know what cradle i can get that will allow me to connect it or are mb going to produce one
August 22nd, 2007 at 10:44 am
Hi Toby 10
if you have the UHI option : time to install the cradle –> 15 seconds, time to configurate it with your phone –> about 1 minute
The cradle is universal, I have about 4 Sony Ericsson mobile phones : K750i, K800i, W880i, W810i they alle work perfectly with the cradle.
If you change your car ( if it is also a Benz) all you’ll have to do is placing the cradle on its new car : 30 seconds …
Let me know if you need more informations .
Regards

Is there a cradle for a TREO 700/750.(2008 CLS 550)
August 23rd, 2007 at 6:27 am
Hi
I’ve read almost all the various queries but only one person mentioned a problem with receiving msgs while connected to the new Mercedes Module! Since I installed mine I’m not able to receive any txt messages while connected. It is very frustrating and I regret buying it unless somebody somewhere can explain why? I used to have the normal cradle for the Nokia 6230i and that was fine with receiving messages. Now that I paid £350 for this new technology I’m not able to receive any of the messages sent to me! where do they go? Not even Mercedes Benz could explain! Can you?

Hello All, I have a 2006 CLS 500 in the US. I spent $2500 to upgrade the vehicle to have the phone system (not originally included in this particluar car) and the Razr Cradle. I had a Moto Razr V3c with US Cellular Service. When connected, the audio quality to anyone I was talking to was absolute CRAP. I was then told that it was my service. I then changed carriers to Cingular AT&T as I was told this is the best for Merc. Guess what, still sounds like garbage on the other end. All my callers tell me I sound muffled. ANyone else experience this. Please HELP!!!

Hi all, I have an E220 CDi (2007) with a built in handsfree system, I got the cradle for the Nokia 6230i, the phone works fine except for two issues:
1. Calls from the phone (through the computer) are sent as anonymous
2. Speed dials are cahnged by the computer
If I dial no.’s through the phone (while in the cradle) both issues are resolved, this is obviously not ideal. Has anybody else had this problem & can anybody help with a solution??
Thanks

I have a 2006 S class that came with a Motorolla phone. The cradle is always coming loose so the screen reads telephone not inserted. Countless times my tech tightened it up. No avail… Finally got the Bluetooth telephone module, but due to the need for a smartphone with infrared and touch screen for eKey software installation, I’m limited to to the Treo 750, Treo 700wx, Treo 700w (word is Treo doesn’t do well), HP iPAQhw6900 series, PPC6700, Mogul, MDA, XV-6700, 8528 or HTC4300. My signal strength is nonexistent within a mile of my home. Any suggestions which of these phones might have the strongest signal strength AND work with my new Bluetooth cradle? Thanks!

Windows Mobile 5.0 useres can install JETWARE ( http://www.jetwaremobile.com ) and using the extentions can succesfuly connect to their mersedes cars. This is a major problem for mercedes owners as the compatible phones are old and lame. Most bluetooth phones will connect but call only. Needed is also : phnebook download, recent dialed calls, recent received calls etc. I have susecfuly used JETWARE on my palm 750 with my 2007 slk 55 amg with usa bluetooth module (hfp) but needed is simmilar software to activate extentions for more functionality.
Can U create a simmular app to offer Hands-free Extension that provides additional functionality to the built-in Symbian os support for the Bluetooth Hands-Free Profile. The Extension would allow hands-free devices to:
Read contacts from the Outlook phonebook (“ME” phonebook)
Read contacts from the SIM (“SM” phonebook)
Read the list of dialed calls from the call history (“DC” phonebook)
Read the list of received calls from the call history (“RC” phonebook)
Read the list of missed calls from the call history (“MC” phonebook)
Filter contacts from Outlook phonebook based on Outlook contact categories
Limit number of contacts returned from any phonebook
Activate Microsoft Voice Command 1.5 or 1.6 voice dialing over Bluetooth
Use custom ringtones through your Bluetooth device
Show battery charge level
Show signal strength
Show roaming status
Display carrier name
Read message headings from ActiveSync, SMS, or other mail provider
New message notification
Delete messages
Read SIM serial number (used to automatically select display language)
Read GSM phone IMEI number
Read phone default phone number
Read current time from phone
Improved Caller ID
Beam multiple contacts to your hands-free device at once

I just bought a C350 and it comes standard with bluetooth. I have a pearl 8100 and have been trying to connect it with no luck. The phone finds the car, but the car doesn’t find the phone. When I ask the car to find devices, it says nothing found. To double check my sanity, I just connected my pearl to two other bluetooth devices. I hope you aren’t going to tell me need to buy something else to make this thing work… help!

“119. Marty Klinger - December 15, 2007
I just bought a C350 and it comes standard with bluetooth.”
Yes, I just bought the 2008 C300 yesterday and my Blackberry won’t sync with it. Had the dealers hotshot tinker with it for a half hour, no success. My next step is to go to Verizon and ask them for help. Not expecting any and will probably need to buy a new Blackberry model. Wifeys 3 month old Razor will sync, but will not upload her address book. I didn’t know I’d need to buy two phones to work in the car.

December 26th, 2007 at 6:00 am
@Paul, Im having the same problem with the speed dials. Did you find any solution? I read at a few places that the numbers need to be saved on SIM rather than on the phone to be accessible on the COMAND.
@Prasanth, try saving the numbers on SIM (instead of the phone) and then dial 0000 from COMAND. It should transfer the entries from your SIM to mercedes telephone module.

Suggest you all do the same and don’t waste your time like i have……………….

Hi guys,
Hopefully you can help me, I’m in Australia and own an 07 ML320CDI with Command 2.0. I’ve just bought the Bluetooth Cradle (Part B67875877) and would like to know if you guys can give me an idea of how to install it, and the compatability with my car and phone (Nokia E51).
Any help is much appreciated.
