boB_2006_GS300 Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Hello all, I have had my 2006 GS300 with nav and ML stereo for several months now, but it isn't until the end of August that I can upgrade my cell phone or even change carriers if needed to use the Bluetooth. I currently have Verizon Wireless and am leaning toward the Razr. I am interested in what any of you have to say about any of the carriers and phones you are using in your Lexus by using the Bluetooth (good or bad). thanks, boB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only downside is the phone book can not be auto transfered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swede Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I have a Sony Ericsson z525a and it barely works. I was able to transfer my entire phone book and have the car recognize the phone, however every time it connects now the phone drops the connection after about 30 seconds and won't reconnect until the car is restarted. I tested out a Treo just to make sure it wasn't the car that had issues and the Treo stayed connected as long as it was in range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder about the new upcoming KRZR? I guess we'll have to wait until it's released, but it looks nice! thanks for all the replies! boB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh come on the quality is low it just looks cool?If you look at other carriers the razr works fine.There are numerous examples of the same phone working perfectly with one carrier but not so well with verizon.Look through the threads here most people complaing are verizon users.I work for Lexus and deal with bluetooth all day and can tell you from personal experience verizon HAS the most problems.

Works fine. Address book doesn't though. Blackberries with Bluetooth don't have a TRANSMIT button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
