I've had my S3 just two days and already I have had enough of the Bluetooth and my iPhone 5 (IOS 7.1.2). I've searched these forums and Google but can't find an answer - just other iPhone users having issues when they updated to IOS 7.
Despite knowing what I am doing (allegedly), it takes several attempts for each device (car and phone) to eventually find each other. Even then, there's no guarantee that they will pair. When they do finally pair, it seems OK briefly (30-40 seconds), then they disconnect. After that, the car will not connect to the phone and the phone says it can't find the car.
I get messages like 'No Service Found', 'No devices found' and on my phone I get a message saying make sure the S3 Bluetooth is turned on and in range - I'm sat in my car so it's definitely in range and the ignition is on.
I've deleted devices on both car and phone, I've rebooted both phone and MMI all to no avail. I had no such issues with my A5 which worked fine (abeit it was nearly 4 years old).
Has anyone else actually got an iPhone 5 on IOS 7.1.2 to successfully pair, connect and stay connected with a MY15 S3 or A3? Also, can you get it to connect automatically next time you go out to the car?
