Why do Fiat have to do anything? It's SE who have changed the way their bluetooth works.
Either way, its a pain. I've posted this so we'll see if anyone has any ideas there.

Mine is sort of working... I think. Will test again on the way home.

At least you got a reply - that's more than I got! ;-)
The Alfas have the same problem.

Eventually, perhaps, we'll have a working phone.

Grrrrrrrrrr!
I had an e-mail the other day from SE (some weeks after contacting them) telling me to, yes, upgrade the software. I pointed out that there is no update to the W595 on Three (its bespoke software) and that C905 users and upgraded C902 users were also having the same problem. Not holding my breath but you never know. I just wish I'd gone for the Samsung Soul as I originally intended and not have been too worried about the message reader.
I figure now, that if you can pair a phone and sync the address book, don't be too bothered about the 'supposed' best compatibility from SE phones as I'm sure that all new SE phones from now on will be problematic.
I wish I had found this thread 4 hours ago!! after weeks of deciding which phone and then making the decision to give up on my usual Samsung to try an SE due to the blue tooth compatiblity, I ordered a C902 this afternoon.
Why oh Why didn't I check first - probably because all other SEs get glowing reviews for use with B&M!
I wonder if I can cancel the order, I must have 7 days or something. best get onto it.

Hi Guys
Did have exactly the same problem. I just bourght the phone, C902, because of the great compability with Blue&me. The first thing i did whas upgrade the phone. ON NO.
I've just succesfully downgraded to an older firmware via wotanserver.com. It works perfectly and did only cost 7€.

My C905 works totally fine.
I upgraded it from a Nokia N95 last week, and have had it running in my GPS since Wednesday, no problems at all.
Its been used quite alot and I must say the battery isnt the best I've had, but for call quality and the likes I cant fault it.
I didnt bother trying to get the SMS reader working because I'm sending the phone back, I dont really get on with it the keypad is too small.
This ones the silver exclusive to Orange.... peeps who have had problems, have they all been the black ones??
Just a thought.....

luckily orange mucked up my order, so I did manage to change the phone. Have now got a Samsung G600 (purple too!!) and so far so good!
Which version did you downgrade to?

Hi... It was to a R3CA038 CID52 firmware. http://www.wotanserver.com/en/supported-phones/sonyericsson-c902-debranding/
Can't get the wotanserver.com client to connect to my phone. The davinci client can connect though so looks like I'll have to try their client.
It is blue&ME again!
Using the Davinci team website I've managed to downgrade to R3CA033 which seems to be the one to use. So far no problems and pairs with blue&me fine with no angry typewriter man!
It was reasonably easy to do, but took a couple of attempts to get it flashed correctly. Well worth the 10 euros.

I'm due for a phone upgrade and have had problems with my previous SonyEricsson phones occasionally not disconnecting properly from Blue&Me (K800, W880 & W890). My W890 also sometimes dials out using Blue&Me and then "phone active" shows on the dashboard and the sound comes through the phone. I decided to go for a Nokia but reading other people's experiences it looks like SE phones are actually the best with B&M, so now looking at a C902. I know that some of you report problems with the latest firmware so I'm prepared to flash the phone with older firmware using DaVinci or WotanServer - just wondered if those of you using C902s with the older firmware have found them to be completely problem -free with Blue & Me. Also wondered if it's all of the newer firmware that causes the problem or if it's operator specific - I'm on O2. Thanks to any of you that can give me some advice before I order the phone!
With mine you need to remember not to jump out the car as soon as you've switched off as to give the phone time to disconnect.
My only worry with a new phone (for you) is it may have the latest version of the EPROM therefore there may not be an old enough version of the firmware available.

Thanks Hellcat. Spoke to support at DaVinci who are fairly certain that a new C902 from o2 will be CID52 so downgrading shouldn't be a problem. Are you on o2? if so and if you're on a contract presumably the "o2 prepay" version of R3CA033 was the one you went for?
I'm on orange... Think I went with the generic western european version.
