Phone Sometimes refuses to disconnect after car is switched off.

iamholam · 30th May 2008, 12:08

Hello

I have this intermittent problem where my phone will sometimes remain paired with the car even after it's been switched off and locked. I will be in the house or whatever and try and make a call but i won't be able to speak as it's still paired and thinks it needs to use the car speakers and mic!

This doesn't seem to be a door sensor issue as I have checked by unlocking the car and waiting for it to lock again and doesn't happen all the time.

Phone is o2 xda

Anyone else had this problem?

Haven't experienced your problem but you could try updating the phones firmware/software/radio to see if that solves your honda feature. Updating your phone can be a risky business as it may void your warranty and turn it into a brick!!! xda-developers forums\wiki would be a good place to readup on whats involved.

I have this problem too (as does the wife) - it's a pain!! Both using Sony Ericssons (with updated firmwares). Shame Honda don't update the firmware for the HFT!

That must mean that the Civic is not turning off all the electronics ?

Within about 10 seconds of me removing the ignition key the phone flashes up that it's lost connection.

I wonder if this is another reason for some having battery problems ?

This is the case most of the time - but certainly not always!

Yup I have had a dead battery on 1 occasion also. I took it into the dealer and they made a software fix to one of the bits in the door (i think)

Still noticed yesterday that it was still connected to my phone when i left the car though.
