Bluetooth/pairing issue
I have a galaxy s8+ and a 06 coupe with Bose, I tried to pair my phone to my bluetooth in the car but my phone wont find my car as a device. Any help? I searched and all I was able to find was HOW to pair.. would love help guys.. TIA
When I had my 06 G35 6 speed I had a IPhone 4S and had no problem pairing my phone.
Try pairing your phone to a new vehicle at any new car dealer near you
Perhaps the 06 vehicle software will not work with your phone?

I can pair with my girlfriends phone, my stepsons phone, my girlfriends car (2016 kia) and the aftermarket stereo in my maxima my phone just wont find my 06.. I scan.. and no devices phone for the car.
Called the stealership and they want 170 bucks to have them diagnose it.. I'm gonna pull the radio fuse and put it back in and see if that resolves the issue

Not sure it's worth the bother. My understanding is the audio in the Bluetooth system isn't very good in these cars anyway. Lots of ambient noise in microphone pickup, which is poorly located overhead.

That is the person that might give you some insight on your problem
So I went to the dealership and asked to speak to the lead tech and they said to do that I would have to schedule an appt and that they would have to charge me for the 170$ diag fee.. and yes I've deleted the only 2 phones that were saved.. only options I have are pair new device and turn bluetooth off, I've even called tech support for Infiniti at the 800 number and they said that it was an issue with my phone.. I tried telling them that I can connect to everything else around me.. I even test drove a new infinit and connected my phone to its bluetooth and it worked perfectly.. so I know it's not my phone.. so with the g35 the bluetooth with play my music as well right or is just for phone calls?

Bluetooth depends on both hardware and software to work properly. So if your devices can't speak a common Bluetooth language, they won’t be able to connect.
In general, Bluetooth is backward compatible: Bluetooth devices supporting the Bluetooth 5 standard should still be able to pair with devices using, say, the ancient Bluetooth 2.1, launched back in 2007.
The exceptions are gadgets that use a low-energy version called Bluetooth Smart, which works on a different protocol than older, or "Classic" Bluetooth devices. Bluetooth Smart devices are not backward compatible and won't recognize (or pair with) older devices that support Classic Bluetooth. (For example, an old Sony Ericsson phone sporting Bluetooth 3.0 won't be able to connect to a Bluetooth Smart device.)
However, if a device supports Bluetooth 4.0 (in some cases), 4.2 (in most cases) or 5.0 (in most cases), it should recognize both Bluetooth Smart and Classic. Bluetooth 4.0 devices will be officially labeled Bluetooth Smart Ready. In the case of Bluetooth 4.2 and 5, it's expected.
Gadgets that commonly use Bluetooth Smart include personal health gadgets such as fitness bands or heart-rate monitors. These gadgets will only pair with a smartphone or tablet that also uses Bluetooth Smart – or are Bluetooth Smart Ready.
Most smartphones are Bluetooth Smart compatible. That includes iPhones running iOS 7 and newer, Android phones running 4.3 or newer, Windows Phone 8.1 devices, and all BlackBerry 10 devices. Ensure your phone is running the latest version of its operating system – but if your device isn't new enough to run relatively current software, you may not be able to pair it with that fitness band.
Devices also come with specific Bluetooth profiles. If Bluetooth is the common language connecting devices, you can think of a profile as a dialect associated with a certain use. For example, you probably aren't going to be able to connect a mouse and a camera because a camera doesn’t support the Human Interface Device Profile. But if both a mobile phone and a wireless headset support the Hands-Free Profile, you should be able to pair them.
However, if the pairing failure is a matter of user error, there are steps you can take to get your devices happily communicating with each other.
Update the hardware’s firmware. Some automotive audio systems have been known to not pair with phones because the Bluetooth drivers in these systems didn’t work with Bluetooth 4.0. If you’re not sure how to get the latest firmware for your hardware, check with the device manufacturer.

It's not a matter of it pairing.. it's the fact that I have had now 5 different phones that all work with other bt devices search and not a single one found my car. If I can get it to actually FIND my car I can get it to pair.
I had an 06 G35 6speed sedan and had no problem pairing my I Phone 4S
I suspect the newer blue tooth phones are not compatible with a fourteen year old vehicle with an older blue tooth?
If that is the case either get a newer vehicle or an older phone
The oldest phone in the house is only a couple years old. But I'll get a double din with bluetooth before I replace the car. Thanks though.
