Hi,

i just got a 2013 C63 Coupe aroung two days ago. Everything is working fine but i am having a bit of trouble with the COMAND Online.

i have a Samsung SIII that i managed to connect to the MB System and it working fine in terms of displaying the contact lists, SMS, making calls, etc...

My two problems are as follows:
- How can i change the sorting order in the contact list from Last Name first to First Name first? (This is how it is set on the phone --> Given Name first)

- I cannot get the internet to work. I have selected the correct carrier from the list but it won't work. I even tried it again after enabling Tethering and still didn't work.

Any advice/help would be much appreciated.

This is going to be communicated in bits and pieces because I dont remember it all - but there is an issue with some phones and COMAND online with regards to the specific technology being used - (DUNS vs another kind). One of the more mainstream technologies won't work with the car. Unfortunately for iphone owners thats what apple uses so out of luck. Blackberry as I recall uses the "right" method. There is a thread on this a few months back we discussed in detail and others who knew more specifics chimed in.

I'll try with my iphone5 today to see if thats any different than the 4s and let you know. Maybe that will help with your S3 pairing.

you need bluetooth tethering. i use a software on my galaxy SII called "BlueDUN" that performs this internet over bluetooth. the internet is very slow as everything goes through a mercedes server (proxy) before you get the display on your screen

Just tried that and didn't work either but thanks anyways.

I confirm you that BlueDUN works.
Make sure you buy the full version of it !

1 - De-authorize your phone
2 - Install and launch BlueDUN
3 - Pair it with MB Online
4 - Enjoy a very slow Internet connection.

Better use Internet on your S3 !

i agree there isn't really a point in trying so hard to get this working but i am sure you had this before where you want to know and try every inch of what you bought
