hello,

I would like to buy a Parrot CK3100 (BlueTooth car kit), but I wonder if it works perfectly with Himalay under WM2006. Is the directory correctly and automatically loaded on the Parrot ? Are all the functionnalities of the Parrot working with the Himalaya ?

Thanks in advance for your answer,

regards

You shouldn't be able to access your contacts through Parrot CK3100.

Ok, thanks for your answer. Have you tried the XDA II on the CK3100, or is it just a bet ?

The reason why I a m asking this question is that on a GPS device (Garmin ZUMO), the directory is automatically and correctly loaded (as well as the last received numbers and last dialled numbers). So it seems that the XDA II is able to do it.
Is there someone owning the two devices (XDA II and CK3100) who could confirm the good or bad working ?
By the way, my ROM's version is 7.0c.40CS.
Thanks in advance.

I use CK3000 but I would be surprised if CK3100 could access XDA II contacts.

I understand your surprise.
But I was surprised when all my XDA II contacts have been downloaded automatically and without being prompted on my Zumo device.
Seems the WM2006 allows this (at least on my XDA II :-)))

This is the reason why I am looking for someone owning both CK3100 and XDA II under WM6 !

Yes, it works!

I have a Qtek 2020 (aka Himalaya) and a Parrot CK3100 Black Edition and it works (almost) perfectly.
When you turn on the ignition the Parrot activates showing the Owner Information, the Network you’re connected (operator), the Signal Strength, the Battery Level and it synchronizes the Contacts, even the ones you have multiple numbers (ex.: Thomas w/; Thomas h/ as in Thomas (work) and Thomas (home)). It even gets the last Received, Dialed and Lost calls (not always). You see an ActiveSync alike symbol from times to times showing the synchronization.
Every time you turn off the ignition (electrical circuit) it clears all information and youŽll have to wait until it synchronizes again after you turn it on.
The only glitch it has is that sometimes (1 in 100), when they «meet», the PDA starts a call to nowhere and the only way to stop it is to reset the PDA (the pen tip in the hole).
Hope this info helps

Hi gents :
I have both devices (Himalaya & Parrot), and almost everything is running fine.
Parrot and Himalaya synchronize automatically.
Only one thing :when conecting GPS and Parrot, if I let these devices to connect automatically, the phone sound is really bad, I have to cut down bluetooth hans free connection and retry again after few seconds.
Then, everything is OK.
Suggestions are welcome

Hi,

following ThomasScott, I have bought the CK3100. Got it today. I have tried it only few minutes but it seems to run fine. Synchro of directory is OK, and done when Parrot is on.

I will install it definitively tomorrow, and will try to connect both GPS and Parrot, to check if I have the same problem.
