Astra / Insignia - Navi900 Infotainment System

[dynamik]

I had the firmware update applied before Opel went bye bye and it solved the SD Card maps issue for me.

I have noticed it not remembering the last song from a USB stick and I think it happens when you select tracks via spinning the "jog wheel".
Selecting by Menu/Folder, using the << >> buttons or the steering wheel selector it never has an issue.

Having a new issue with the Navi900 Infotainment System:-

Navi900 can see my phone and connect via Bluetooth, however unable to make calls from it. I've just had my sim card replaced, but cant see why this would cause a problem.
I've done a factory reset on both the phone and Navi900, but still no good.

Just throwing it out there...has anyone experienced this same problem?

when phone bluetooth is connected to the car, can you be called ?

I had this problem after updating my phone software, I just removed it from the system and paired it again and haven't had a problem since.

@dutchy - yes I can be called and all is good, just cant make a call using the bluetooth when connected to my Xperia Z.
I tried my work phone - old skool nokia and that works a treat.

@nigelh - I have just remembered that I updated the Xperia Z to run Android 4.3 - this might cause the problem. I have unpaired both and reconnected but no joy. I did also notice when I reconnected, the phone didn't ask me if I allow the carkit to access my PBAP.

Yeah I've noticed on/off issues with the later versions of android. I think it has something to do with the type of security lock you have on your phone (swipe,pin,pattern etc)

its something about a program on the phone not running. I think it has to do with the phonebook. If I turn programs of to save battery life, I cant make phonecalls either and then I also cant access the phonebook.

i tend to agree...but which app/program needs to be either turned on or off?

don't know as I am not very good with the technical side of phones (or any other electronics for that matter). When I'm in "aaplications" and then in "running services", there are 2 of them that make the phone inoperableif I turn them off. I can be called but I cant make phonecalls. These are "bluetootoothOppService" and "BluetoothPbapService". I can only turn these back on when I turn the phone on and off. Might be another way but I don't know how. When turned off, I also have no access to the phonebook through the Navi system. Hope that helps you a bit in finding out what your problem is.

Thanks dutchy you have helped heaps...

It appears that when I updated the Xperia Z to 4.3 - "bluetootoothOppService" and "BluetoothPbapService" have disappeared from the phone.
however I have reconnected the Xperia to both the Subaru and Valiant - they are running Kenwood/Sony decks, and the phone works fine.

I research on google for a solution, and might even get Holden to do a software upgrade when I take it in for a service.
