Bluetooth pairing Toyota

[nacsr]

Trying to pair a G3 with a Toyota Highlander. Bluetooth is turned on, Highlander shows on pager as paired, but no sound. An ideas? Has anyone had sucess? Thanks!

No, I got the same results with a 2013 Prius- paired but no audio

Same here with G4 and 2008 Rav4.

I've never been able to get my G4 to pair to my 2016 4Runner. This was even before the beta firmware. Not to sound like an idiot, but how did you pair it? G4 BT on first, then turn on vehicle, or doesn't the order matter? I swear I've tried every sequence.

 

[belvdr]

Order doesn’t matter. My guess is the protocol used by the Unication isn’t what the car wants (i.e. the car wants an audio player but the Unication is acting like a phone).

 

[eorange]

Ok. Does anyone who has successfully paired have the Entune system? I do and maybe that's my difference?

2013 RAV4 with the non Bose system and a G3 on 1.3. Radio will pair after a couple attempts but when a signal is received my car will show the screen as if I'm in a phone call but no audio will ever pass.

Under FW1.2 I tried the following BT receivers:

1. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B082DVD367/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
2. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B078J3GTRK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
3. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016NUTG5K/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I was only able to get number one to work. Upgraded to FW 1.3 and the G5 will connect to number 1 but no sound and I have toggled
"BT Headset Incoming Call Notification"

Upgrade dto the beta FW1.4 no change BT still not working.

Contacted the selling dealer who told me to contact Unication. So email, FB message and voice mail to Unication and no response yet.

It is just incredibly frustrating you know. I have a NX5300, Kirisun W80, and an Anysecu W2 paired to the same car and they all work flawlessly. I shouldn't have to buy a special receiver, especially when a pager costs $700.00

I just tried this Bluetooth receiver and I could not get it to connect to either my G4 or G5 running firmware 1.3:
TaoTronics

The only Bluetooth receiver I have that works is this one. It worked even before v1.3:
Elegiant

I am glad I bought two of these because they can be hard to find. I agree that Bluetooth is a pain with the G4 and G5. And, without a headphone jack, Bluetooth is the only way (other than the charger/amp product) that one can use headphones/external speaker/automobile sound system with their pager. I really wish Unication would have included a headphone jack.

 

[nacsr]

The odd thing is the Toyota Highlander shows up on the G3 screen,and the car screen shows pager,just no sound.

As a side note: I am running into the same issue with my 2016 F150. Will pair, but no audio...

 

[belvdr]

It’s because the Unication only does phone connections over Bluetooth. I have no idea why they would have implemented it that way. It really seems like a dumb idea.

My G5 will not pair with a GMC Acadia.

 

[CanesFan95]

This is a bummer. My hope is to use it in the car, but I want the louder audio.

Wonder if you could use a TPA3116 like at the link below and add a couple speakers. I added one of these chip amps with a sub to my home theater system and it works great.

They are 12 to 24 volt power supply (I'm using a 19v laptop brick for mine) and input is 3.5mm male to male aux cable.

Do you have Sync 3 ?

 

[blackbelter]

Same here , with 1.3 I was able to pair up and receive audio through my rental 2020 Nissan Rouge, however no such luck with my personal cars , 2019 X5 and C class Benz . They both pair up with no audio . As previously reported I was able to pair up with my Apple Air Pods Pro and Bose Q35 model 3 .

Yes, latest version also.
