Has anyone updated to iPhone 4.0 software and noticed that contacts no longer sync with the fiscon ??
-
Yes :angry:
-
it'll be like that till the fiscon releases an update id imagine, iphone 4.0 sucks, spazzed my phone and lost the lot :(
-
Around the release of iOS5.
Took me around 2 hours to download and install. But it works.
Can you restore from backup?
-
does it still randomly disconnect ?
-
I have the VW kit and with the new ios4 software I have not had it disconnect once all day. That's with it unplugged from the charger which as previously mentioned did resolve the random disconnects.
Too early to say but all seems good so far, everything seems to be syncing as normal.
-
Even if they do release an update how do we go around getting it ?

Which VW kit do you have ?

All you do it download it to a bluetooth laptop. You then pair your Fiscon with the laptop, and run a program that comes with the download. There is a 'Software Upgrade' menu somewhere in the Fiscon. It simply copies the file off the laptop onto the Fiscon.
I haven't actually tried it, but I did do it a few times with my old Parrot - and the Fiscon uses the same chipset.

Don't think this works with a Mac?

Its probably a PC app that it comes with. The Parrot one was.

Also working fine with iPhone 4.
-
Also just noticed with the iPhone 4 (pretty sure it never did this before) when an incoming call comes in, the actual musical ringtone from the iPhone is played through the car speakers and not the ear piercing vw ringer.
It only does this when the iPhone is set to silent.

Found a couple of issues with the iPhone 4 today...
I can't seem to answer a call with any of the steering wheel buttons. I have to press the button on the RNS510 screen to answer. The same with hanging up - I have to press the button on the RNS510 screen.
My contacts sync fine - but it no longer syncs my Missed Calls / Recent Recieved / Recent Dialled lists.
I was getting told the call quality was rubbish - but then I realised I'd reset the Mic volume when I did a factory reset to clear out my old phone. Once I adjusted the Mic volume back up a bit - it was fine!
-
Just to be clear, you're talking about iPhone 4 rather than 3GS with iOS4?

yeah... an iPhone 4 on iOS4 :cool:
-
My iPhone 4 seems to work about the same as before; generally fine, but the odd bit of strangeness. It wouldn't hurt Fiscon to actually support their product and get some updates out, rather than just saying it's not compatible with certain iPhone firmware.

I finally visited a kind forum member yesterday who enabled telephone for me. I can confirm that the telephone button is working to answer calls for me with my iPhone 4 and RCD510.

Weird... I'm on my 3rd iPhone 4 so far, and all have the same problem!
I wonder if thats an RNS issue with the phone then since your RCD works?
-
Could well be. I'm having my iPhone replaced, so I'll let you know if the new one works as well.
Perhaps it's worth trying a factory reset of the Fiscon? Dial *582#2177 from your phone.

Given up with the iPhone 4!
Sold it on eBay for a HUGE profit - and have returned to my HTC HD2 which works fine and gets a great signal everywhere!
I might even use some of the cash I made to buy an HTC Desire and give that a try :smiley:
-
This is strange, my experience with iphone 4 has been the opposite - reception more stable than my old 3G and works fine with Fiscon kit. The only slightly weird thing is that the contacts come up surname first whereas the 3G presented them the right way around. (3G used to play up since iOS3 installed a while ago)

I never had any stability problems with the reception - I just found the reception to be poor everywhere in comparison to my previous phones. I mainly use my phone for internet at work, but I get no internet signal at work!
Its a shame as it was a really nice phone to use and looked great. The Fiscon problems were minor and I could have easily lived with them... but I can't have a phone that has no internet!
Please note - I'm talking about my reception with NO HANDS on the phone :wink:
IF I held my fingers over the black bar in the left corner, I could get the signal to vanish!!
Perhaps its the area I work in doesn't have a very strong signal - but all previous phones have managed to get a decent signal.

Pete you can buy a proper bt kit now :grin: one which intergrates with everything, sell your fiscon and buy the new vw module 7p6 035 730C this will give you all the functions of the vw premium kit but you can use any phone has its not Rsap... :wink:
About £300 from VW then you just need the loom and mic which I can get hold of for you cheap enough.

Can I also use my i-Phone 3GS with the VW Bluetooth you installed?

For the amount of time I actually use the phone in the car, the Fiscon will do me fine!
Any problems are more like niggles than problems. I'm back to my old HTC HD2 for the moment which works great.
If I was buying again, then maybe the new VW one would be my choice - but I'm not wasting anymore cash!!

Am should be no problems with the Iphone on the unit I fitted mate :smiley:

No no mudflaps. I will get them at some point for the winter months for sure.

Just been to the VW dealer to order this but there seems to be three versions
7P6 035 730 B
7P6 035 730 C
7P6 035 730 D
Does anyone know the differences?
