Phone Pairing

Did you set up the Uconnect before you started on the phone?
I set mine up the other day.
You have to say pairing when you go to the phone menu, then give the phone a name, as well as give a pin number (which is a four digit number of your choice), then you go to the phone and type in the pin number on your phone and you should be good to go.
How old is the phone?

Exactly!! I called them on Monday about the iPod problem and the MyGig support people had me on the phone for the least amount of time. I really have better things to do than drive down to the dealer for them to tell me that they can't do anything about it. They had better come out with an update for the 430N units, they're hanging us out to dry with the old unit firmware.

You need to do the pairing on the U-Connect menu. Just hit that button and follow the prompts, she even talks to you :thumbsup:. Once you go through the U-Connect preliminaries you get to the phone and like above, make sure your BTooth option is turned on. Once the ink is established, it will download your stored address book. You will then be able to speak the name of person you're trying call and if you have multiple numbers for that entry, it will ask you which one. Pretty slick.. :bigthumb:

I don't think it's enough to just store numbers in the phone. In order for the U-Connect to see the phone book it should have a name associated to each number. This is how U-Connect speaks to you, it asks you for the name of the person you're dialing and then tells what number(s) are associated with that person such as work, home or cell. Typically this is done by storing this type of info within a contact list of some sort on the phone and then the U-Connect will sync that list. In any event, it sounds like you're making some headway. Now it's a matter of figuring out your phone. :thumbsup:

BTW, it wouldn't be a bad idea to do some voice recognition training on your U-Connect system. If it's the same as the 2010 system it should take about 15 minutes or so. This will train the system to recognize your voice patterns so it won't error out as much. You can find this in the U-Connect menu as well.
