I someone having the same problem as me?
since I installed WM6 on my device (first version 0.2 from Kyphur and now Windows Mobile VI - Black Edition v1.2) I have connection problems with my bluetooth carkit (Toyota Prius).
the pda should make a connection when my car starts, but most of the time the car tells me that the connection failed (not always) and most of the time I need to enable bluetooth in the comm manager on the pda, but have to press the button three time sometime before bluetooth is enabled.
All is well in a conversation, but when it ends and I would like to make a new call via my car, bluetooth is disabled again on the pda.
I didn't have this (many) problems with WM5.
I think I use an old version of the radio rom. Could this be the problem? and does anyone have an idea of what radio rom I should install.
I'm in the Netherlands and use the KPN network.
this is my device information:
ROM version:3.22.200.4
ROM date: 01/04/07
Radio version: 1.16.00.00
Protocol version: 32.53.7018.01H
I never flashed my device before WM6 so I think I have an old bootrom.
Can my problem be solved by installing a newer radio rom?

Similar issue here with WM6 (lvsw 20/3 and black edition 1.2) and Seat Leon Bluetooth Car. If i start the car, pair succesfull, but if i stop PDA (not phone) the car starts loss connection and reconnects several times, and bluetooth goes off. So i need to stay PDA On to work ok (not so difficult, i charge in the car and this prevent to switch off).
I've one more issue with tomtom. When i start tomtom6, the volume in tomtom is deactivateed. If i enter in parameters to activate, the free hands for the car losses the connection, so i need to enter in bloetooth and set the car to Free Hand active. Anyone with similar issues?
I've tested this with one free hands from other manufacturer and works ok, so i think is more a problem with bluetooth for Seat Leon, or the way it works (in my case) thats a problem with TyTN.
Can my problem be solved by installing a newer radio rom?From what I've read (radio flash only affects GSM, not Bluetooth or WiFi), I'd say not likely.

I don't think this has anything to do with a new radio rom, but just for the record there is some improvement.
I have flashed my Hermes with the latest version of LVSW:
20070325_WM6_HERMES_WWE_3.23.0.2_1.38.00.10
and with this version I suddenly have extra info about my phone in my car.
I never got this information before (just a bluetooth connection, but no info about reception and battery status...)
I flashed the complete rom with the radio etc. included.
I don't know if the connection with the car will be more consistent. Too early to tell
Just for the info....
