Same happened with mine a couple of months ago, still not working just keeps searching and says no phone found, when I had it serviced last month I told my mechanic about it and he said there was something amiss with the software, he is going to research it and have a look in January when I have the brakes done. REME ..

I'd delete all existing phones and try to reconnect. I assume you know there are two ways to connect, phone to car & car to phone. When I changed phone, phone to car worked for me,previous phone had to use the other way. If that does not work I think it might be a trip to LR

PAIRING AND CONNECTING USING
THE PHONE
Note: The process of pairing and connecting
your phone with the vehicle, using the mobile
phone, will vary depending on the type of mobile
phone used.
1. Switch the ignition on and make sure the
Touch screen is active.
2. From the Home menu, select Phone.
3. A menu will appear. Select Search new.
4. Select the Device to vehicle option.
Note: The vehicle’s Bluetooth® wireless
technology system is discoverable for only
3 minutes.
5. Using the mobile phone, search for
Bluetooth® wireless technology devices.
On some phones, this is referred to as new
paired device. See your phone's operating
instructions for further information.
6. When the vehicle's Bluetooth® wireless
technology system is discovered, follow the
on-screen instructions. Select Yes when
prompted, to confirm the pairing.
Either the phone or the vehicle's system will
ask for a PIN (Personal Identification
Number). When prompted, enter a PIN of
your choice and select OK to confirm.
7. Enter the same PIN into the other device.
8. Once your phone is paired and connected
to the system, a confirmation message will
be displayed before switching to the Digit
dial screen.
Note: Some mobile phones require the
Bluetooth® wireless technology device
pairing to be set as ‘authorised’ or ‘trusted’,
in order to automatically connect. Please
refer to your phone’s operating instructions
for further information.

PHONE PAIRING AND CONNECTING
USING THE TOUCH SCREEN
1. Switch on your mobile phone’s Bluetooth®
wireless technology device connection.
Make sure that your mobile phone is in
Bluetooth® wireless technology device
discoverable mode, sometimes referred to
as find me mode (see your phone’s
operating instructions for more
information).
2. Switch the ignition on and make sure the
Touch screen is active.
3. From the Home menu select Phone.
4. A menu will appear. Select Search new.
5. Select the Vehicle to device option.
6. Identify your phone from the displayed list
and select the corresponding Pair and
connect option.
Note: If more than 5 phones are detected,
it may be necessary to use the scroll bar to
see the entire list.
7. When prompted, enter the PIN code into
your phone. See your phone’s operating
instructions for more information.
8. Once your phone is paired and connected
to the system, a confirmation message will
be displayed before switching to the Digit
dial screen.
Note: Due to the duration of a Bluetooth®
wireless technology device search, it is advised
that the time out to home screen feature is
switched off before attempting to search for
devices. This setting can be changed via the
Home menu screen, touch Setup, Screen, Time
out home FL2 Metropolis, Loire Blue, ebony/ivory

After fitting a new battery a couple of weeks ago I thought mine would start working again .. No .. So if I have been sat in traffic I have been trying to get it to connect and still no. The other day I gave it another go but this time I had the car searching for the phone and the phone looking for the car, after about six attempts they found each other and connected although it won't/can't download my phone book but a least it receives and sends now…

Edit: its a Wife's cast off Samsung Galaxy SIII. REME .. Rough Engineering Made Easy

if you go to https://www.landrover.co.uk/ownership/bluetooth/faq.html and put in the exact phone configuration it will tell you which features will work. I had a quick look and the phone book for the samsung galaxy 3 is dependent on which version of the OS is loaded.

Good luck. FL2 Metropolis, Loire Blue, ebony/ivory

It did take me I'm guessing 40 minutes (wife was in Saintsbury's} I had both the phone and car searching for each other at the same time, just kept hitting retry on both and for no reason came up with the pin. I had tried and tried for months giving it 3 or 4 tries at a time, get a brew sit in the car and batter it! Laughing now I get in and it messages searching for my phone book. REME ..
