I've read of similar incidents in this thread :

It says in the MB documentation that you need a DUN capable phone. Not for Wifi, but for mobile (DUN = Dial Up Network). I used this successfully in my previous C class with Comand Online. That's what's missing in your setup. It has nothing to do with mobile providers blocking anything. It' just the protocol the MB apps use. You won't get it working without the BlueDUN app on native Android.

BlueDUN works, I just activated it in my w205. (Audio 20 + Garmin Navi)

Same instructions more or less as for the old command systems

But yeah, service is, as it was last year, painfully slow to use.....

Blutooth issue is MB unwilling to support SAmsung

Switched from iPhone to Samsung S4 - iPhone functioned perfectly but Samsung will not - shows as paired (3 bars) but will not function


Dealership not helpful - went to corporate (Edwin 1 416 847 7370)


Awaiting his return call


My question - what is the Bluetooth address for my car and what are compatible addresses?


Once I know that I can call Samsung to see what model phone will is compatible


Big fines in Ontario (Canada) for hand held while driving.


If you have new info will appreciate reply


Thanks eh


Peter


Really annoying how MB is ducking this issue - disingenuous.
