I am trying to transfer contacts from my Droidx phone to the 2011 RX350.

I keep getting a "failed transfer" error. However, the Bluetooth connection works fine for dialing and audio.

Anyone have this problem? Is there a fix?

Please let me know. Thanks.

Did you look @ your phone when intiating the trasfer? my dorid x asked for teh permission when I was doing it.

atomarchio

Yes, it did say it was attempting to transfer contats on the phone and the screen on the car.

Then a few seconds later it stops with the "Failed" message.

I couldn't transfer my contacts from my Droid to my '10 450h. My salesperson also tried a couple of times and she couldn't get the contacts to transfer either. It may be a design fault w/ android phones . . .

There's obviously an issue here. I am getting all of the other bluetooth features to function fine instead of the contacts transferring.

Perhaps someone knows a way to resolve this.

I thinks it depends on the file format of the contacts in the phonebook, if it is not compatible with the format in our NAVI system it will not transfer. This is similar to transferring contacts from 1 brand of cellfone to another when they have different file formats it would not transfer either.. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

My wife and I have droid phone(droid x & fascinate) and we never had a issue w/transferring contacts to her 2010 450h.

I don't think it's Android issue... I was able to transfer from Samsung Captivate.

It took my salesperson a few different tries before my contacts loaded from my droidx. Keep trying

Was this recently ? I took possession in mid November, and my contacts from my Droid (1st gen) would not transfer. I haven't tried since, but it could be that recent software upgrades fixed the issue. Maybe a moot point, I have my eye on the Verizone iPhone . . .

tried again today. definitely not working. i see the phonebook request show up on my phone.

Check the Lexus site to see if your phone is compatible. All that are will not be listed but if your phone is more than two years old there is a reasonable chance it is not compatible.

If it is then go by the dealer and let them try. If it's listed as compatible and they can't do it then maybe they'll have a solution for you.

My dealer told me that the phone is bluetooh compatible but does not support contract transfer.

They are not aware of a fix for this.

When the phone pops up with the request (PBAP I think), and you click on the request, it should ask you to give it permission. Once you tell the phone to allow it, it should transfer.

Our 2011 was purchased 10/10/2010 and the salesman said he would do it for us but he couldn't. My wife took it back for their service department to do an they couldn't either. I tried with no luck so I just put them all in manually. The phone is a two or three year old Samsung.
