CDR30 Problems/Upgrades

[PAG ZERO1]

Hi Guy's,

Does anyone if you can upgrade the software in the CDR30 Unit, the one fitted to my Cayman S has Bluetooth and I have sent up the phone to receive calls and out going calls, however I cannot seem to download the contacts. Every time I try it turns the Bluetooth off ?

I have a Porsche document showing phone compatibility with PCM and CDR-30 and this is an extract from it: Can I access the phone numbers stored on the mobile phone from the CDR-30? The CDR-30 does not support the automatic transfer of phonebook contacts from the mobile phone. You do, however, have the option of transferring individual contacts or even your mobile phone’s entire phonebook list to the CDR-30 manually. Enable download mode on the CDR-30, select the contacts you want on your phone and transfer them via Bluetooth®. Note, however, that not all phone models support this option. Have you tried transferring an individual contact? It might be worth a try. You don't say what year your car is. I think there may be an issue with the earlier cars, and Bluetooth compatibility on some phones, depending if they use the SAP or HFP profile. I believe there is a setting in the CDR-30 coding which can be enabled with a PIWIS tester to make it work. If you are anywhere near me I would be happy to give it a try for you.

Hi Richard, thanks for your input, I have not tried single input as every time I select download it switches Bluetooth off, the Cayman S is a 2010 model (Sept).

Richard, Forgot to say I am using an I-Phone 4S, and I live in Penarth Wales.

I think it was 2011 when they made compatibility improvements. According to a chart in the document, the phone book contacts on the iPhone can be accessed on the internal memory, but not the SIM. If you want a copy, drop me an email, but if it is switching Bluetooth off when you select download on the CDR-30 it sounds like it might be a fault.
