Phonebook Transfer/(motion Lockout)

Mr.CEO · August 7, 2007

I just bought my LS400L last week. The dealer told me that because I have Verizon phone service I would have to go to Verizon for them to transfer by phonebook info into the car's phonebook. He said that because of verizon's bluetooth security the transfer feature is disabled.

I went to Verizon and they said they have no idea how to transfer. I looked at the Lexus website for compatible phones by carier and noticed that the phone I had (Motorola E815) WAS compatible BUT not the phonebook transfer feature. I searched for other caompatible phones and and found that the LG VX8300 was compatible for phonebook transfer, so i went out and bought it (at full price because I was within contract period).

Problem: same thing is happening... The second I tough "Transfer Phonebook" on my Lexus screen, my phone says "Bluetooth Disconnected" and nothing happens.

Any ideas????

Also... any way to bypass this crazy motion lockout for the nav???

Thanks.
