OSF upgrade to 2.3.5 bluetooth Parrot problems

[Guest spannerz]

Hi,

Just got around to upgrading my OSF gen1 to Swedish Snow RLS3 (2.3.5) after running Swedish Spring RLS5 (2.2) for a year......bluetooth connectivity to my in car Parrot CK3000 evolution was always a bit tricky and sometimes took some mins to connect but it usually worked ok, but now it won't connect although scans and pairs with the Parrot.

Any ideas what to try or is the Parrot too old to cope?

I erased all previous Parrot connections, the OSF pairs succesfully but never connects, only sits there and the CK3000 beeps every now and then.

Thanks

SOLVED!

Well an update to the above in case anyone else finds their Parrot CK3000 evolution bluetooth car kit stops working when they update their Android version - It seems the CK3000 needs a firmware update to improve bluetooth connectivity with new phones / newer operating system. I also found that my new Motorola Defy+ on 2.3.5 Android also failed to connect and pair up. Once I'd found the cheapest place to get an update cable (£20) I then updated the CK3000's firmware from V5.10C to V5.25 and it now pairs up everytime nice and quick.

Hopefully this might help someone else.
