Iphone 4s pairing problems.

I have a 2011 TE and an iPhone 4s from AT&T and have problems with the music piece staying connected reliably.

I've noticed enough strangeness with connecting, syncing and just normal interaction that says there is something broken in iOS 5 compared to 4.

I test phones as a side job and have had rock solid performance from iOS 4 and many other phones.

Besides turning BT ON on the Iphone, is there something else that i need to do to initiate transfer on the Iphone??

Previously with my Sanyo flip phone, i do what the above link does on the Prius NAVI. BUT, i also need to initiate the transfer on my Sanyo phone to start transmitting.

I don't have a 4R but in my VW I noticed that I do the following:

Settings > General > Bluetooth

Then under devices pick the profile
Then your should see

Forget this device
Sync Contacts
Phone Favorites
Phone Recents
Other Groups

I have mine set to Sync Contacts - ON
Phone Favorites - ON (this may not be avail in the 4R)
Phone Recents - ON (this may not be avail in the 4R)
I can also specify which of my groups on the phone to sync to the car

I have noticed some flakiness to the system in the VW since 5.0 was released. I know that the phone is using BT 4.0 and I wonder if that is part of the problem.

That's odd...i do NOT have anything other than "Forget this device"...nothing else below it. No other option. How odd?!!
 
Hmm I didn't think it was a VW only option but this is what I see

On the 4runner to transfer contacts with the navigation it is in the phone menu in the navigation it is not a setting on the phone
 
Unfortunately that button was frozen and wouldn't respond (seems to be a bug on the phone, lots of posts on an iphone forum about it). Since it wouldn't turn off, had to re-set phone. All worked out, now handsfree and loving it :)

Just checked my month old iPhone 4S and thankfully the TTY button is in the OFF position. :thumb3:
