Default Iphone 6 compatibility

I just got an iphone 6 and connected it to my car but its not working correctly. The car see's the phone and says its connected but i cant make calls. Any suggestions on how to approach fixing this ? I hope i don't have to wait for a patch.

Thanks,

Steve E.

In my 07L, I deleted the old user (phone) from the list and paired the 6. Everything is working as it should.

It is an absolutely perfect fit right on the console directly in front of the center armrest. Right on top of the buttons for the rear shade...it fits right there horizontal.

Default iPhone Paring Success

iPhone 6 / 2011 LS 460 would not pair.
Finally I reset all networks on the iPhone; turned Bluetooth off; and deleted all phones from the Lex. Next I turned Bluetooth on, on the iPhone, and paired the iPhone with the Lex audio. Once paired, I then went to add phone screen and selected new phone. The screen asked if I wanted to disconnect the other device…I hit yes and then it completed the pair and I then made a successful call. I never had to do it this way before. Perhaps it’s IOS 8. BTW you would then have to sign in to your router again.

I did what Tee did, and it worked fine. I also have the ivic and it works fine too. Another great feature with the update is the "hey Siri " option for hands free works flawless.

SBlexus, that's interesting you say that your ivic is working too. My ivic won't connect when I go into app mode. It says searching constantly. I can go into hdmi screen sharing mode no problem. My bluetooth is connecting fine too. I even emailed Vaistech and they said there is an issue with iOS8 and that they'll have a new update next month for the app. I may need to check it again. But everything's working fine on yours huh?

Have a 2007 LS 460L, Updated my iphone 4s to IOS8. Prior to the upgrade worked just great. All calls made from Siri are quickly disconnected. If I dial the number manually, no problem. Techs at Verizon and Apple worked the issue. Did full restore, etc. Still have the problem. Cannot revert to IOS7. Any ideas.
