Oh god please don't say this...........I have had no end of issues with the antiquated Freelander bluetooth ever since I have had it & have just ordered an HTC Wildfire to see if that is any better!! My Freelander bluetooth still displays you are dialing a call even when you have hung up by pressing the "EXIT" button though I have to say this is only when the number is engaged. I am so fed up with the system tha LR Customer Relations have sugested they may pay for a "Parrat" system to be fitted to my car!! (Past) Freelander 2 HSE 2010 MY In Rimini Red. (Past) RR Evoque Dynamic Lux Si4 In Firenze Red. (Past) RR Evouque Pure Tech in Barollo Black with bespoke Firenze Red colour coding. (Present) Freelander Metropolis 2015 MY In Santorini Black with Ivory Premium Leather. |

I have had problems with my RRS bluetooth - had to replace my Nokia 5800 with Samsung Jet S8000 to make it work.

I've had the desire for about 5 months now and no problems at all thats with an 09 SE so I don't know if the bluetooth is fifferent, it was fine to start with and still is after the Froyo update. |

OEM Bluetooth always seems to be a nightmare. Never quite understood why as it is supposed to be a standard format. I remember I had it in my 1 series and there were loads of people that had issues with it. None for me, I had an old Sony Ericson phone that was fully compatible, but when it came to upgrade, the numbers of "compatible" phones was really limited.

I have a Parrat system in my Rover 25GSi & also in the MG ZR-Express & all the phones work well with them. I have also paired my phones with a customer who I chaeuffeur sometimes in his Audi's & no problems with them either. (Past) Freelander 2 HSE 2010 MY In Rimini Red.

I have a HTC desire, also on 2.2 and have the same problem! My phonebook ia basically A, ö, ä, Aä etc and makes no sense whatsoever! The LR website says the phone is fully compatible, but doesnt list the 2.2 software update

That statement now makes me laugh as a couple of months later when I spoke to a colleague of the guy who told me the above totally denied the statement & generally rubbished it & said LR would never do this lol.
