Alpinestars96 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I cannot get it to pair with my Samsung Galaxy phone, it paired before but had always had pairing issues for example, when I come home then get in it for work in the am. What's are the steps to pair this? I have a 2.5i premium single disc without navigation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroVWGTi Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Similar to what I just setup. just make sure you press the SAT button so Media2 is on. Then when your phone scans, it will see "subaru". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's are the steps to pair this? I have a 2.5i premium single disc without navigation. I have premium with what I think is the at same radio (I assuming you don't have the HK option which available with the premium), but I have an iphone. Does a phone show up on car radio screen with the Bluetooth symbol? Does the Bluetooth symbol show up on your phone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgoodhue Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 No the signal bar and BT is not on the Subaru s display. Is your BT on your phone enabled? At least on my iphone it is pretty easy to accidently disable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpinestars96 Posted November 9, 2016 Author Share Posted November 9, 2016 Is your BT on your phone enabled? At least on my iphone it is pretty easy to accidently disable. Yea BT is enabled on my phone. Last time I had this phone paired with my car was about 4 months ago if that helps. I just didnt feel the need to use it anymore since I got an external satellite radio. Now I want to use my phone again through BT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgoodhue Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 If you goto into you phone blue tooth menu, is your Subaru listed? My radio comes up as CAR_M_MEDIA in my Bluetooth menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgoodhue Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 I don't know how they do it in the Galaxy, but in my phone I have a list of devices that have been paired with my iphone. If it isn't in the list my phone will no longer work with that BT device. Have you upgrade your phone or operating system? Sometime those updates can cause some issues.

sdc1983 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 I had to pair my S6 edge through the steering wheels voice control buttons in order for it to work properly. Sent from my SM-G925W8 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YeuEmMaiMai Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 your car can use voice commands to pair the phone. to determine if it is the car or phone, try to re-pair the phone with a known device like a bt speaker that you know is currently working with tour phone.

Alpinestars96 Posted November 10, 2016 Author Share Posted November 10, 2016 I did have a phone update about a month ago. It's just weird it says not available and doesn't even give a pair option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgoodhue Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 I would assume you are leaving phone in on when you turn your car on. The radio sends out an initial BT signal connection on power up. It seems like your phone is no longer paired with the car. I would follow the blue tooth pair instructions if you have the manual that came with the car. (I think their was a quick start manual for the BT) If you don't have the manual, it is in the mysubaru website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I click on the voice button on the steering wheel then say pair phone? something like that, let the car prompt you through it When I paired my phone I had to say something like Main Menu, Phone setup, Pair phone... I have a 2014 but I don't think it is any different from the previous '12 model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpinestars96 Posted November 11, 2016 Author Share Posted November 11, 2016 how did it go? Sorry didn't get a chance to go out at lunch. I did try on my way to my car after work. I used the voice control and it kept Going to BT security when saying pair or pretty much anything. It also went to BT Help but it would not let me select anything when showing help or security. I have a crappy pic of the security message which may or may not help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
