Bluetooth Syncing w/ Car Issue...

[mthompson8]

Anyone else having a problem with the bluetooth on this phone? here is my deal. My car has bluetooth capabilities via phone, and also music. it is great. listen to my playlists from my phone in my car and if i get a call just hit a button and start talking. my previous phone was the evo, and i never had any issues with this. Now with the S3 i am constantly battling my phone to stay connected. I have tried playing with the settings to use it for audio and media, but i can't seem to be connected using both. for example, if i want to listen to music, it will stream through my car, but while that is playing, if i get a call, the call won't be picked up through blue tooth and vice versa. sorry for rambling, but does anyone else have this problem?

My S3 is working fine with my 2008 Ford Sync. When a call comes in, the audio (music or podcast) thatis playing stops and I talk. When I hang up, the audio starts again.

You might want to check with your car maker to see if they have a fix or reset the phone.

Good luck!

There is a thread out there about this, though not specifically on Sprint:
