Bluetooth Function: Show images

Any idea why after coding 6nh to 6nk and enabling pictures, that it would only show pictures intermittently. Some days I enter the car and I see all the contacts with associated pictures, other days nothing shows up. If I save the contacts with pictures to the car then they always show up... see attachments. I'm using a BlackBerry Z10

I have no idea, but can I ask how you got pictures to show up for contacts? Did you code that in?? I already have enhanced bluetooth factory enabled.

I've found that a lot of that extra information seems to require a fresh syncing every time you connect the car and that if you give it long enough it will show up. I'm kind of surprised it doesn't cache it better.

Once I enabled it under bluetoooth options in the car and paired my phone it showed up. Your mobile device also has to support that functionality. The BlackBerry also links contacts from Facebook and those pictures automatically carry over to the car as well.

Hi,

I've got the same configuration : CIC with EBT coded (6NK) and a BlackBerry Z10 and it works correctly for me if i leave enough time at my car to sync with the phone. For me and my 60 contacts list (half of them have a picture attached) , syncing time is around 4-5 min to be complete, after pairing.

So if i use my phone before this time , i don't see the pictures.

Adding picture to contacts increase considerably syncing time.
Syncing process starts by list entries (phone numbers), then contact's names and at last pictures.
So pictures are the lasts things to be synced with the car, as i can see.

PS : I have installed the last firmware of Z10 (10.2.1.2941) which should bring Bluetooth corrections (as said in the firmware comments)

PS2 : your pics show that syncing process is not finished : the Rolling circle is still present in the status bar of your CIC !

Are these 60 contacts in your work perimeter (corporate address book) or personal perimeter (not in your corporate address book)... or a mix of both?

My contacts are in the personal area of the phone. I don't use BB Balance since it's my private phone.
