Galaxy Note 4 and bluetooth
My son just bought a 2015 Outlander Sport with a regular radio. He cannot connect his Note 4 and the dealership has been of no help. Is there anyone on this forum that has successfully connected that particular phone with their car bluetooth?

I am using a Note 4 Edge on mine without any issue, steaming and phone call. What seems to be the problem? It the phone not seeing the Car? Have you tried another phone?

The dealership managed to connect other phones to his bluetooth but not his Galaxy Note 4. He has tried the app "Bluetooth Auto Connect" with no results. I'm thinking it is a problem with his phone and not his car.

Have you tried using the built in Bluetooth Manager on android and not an app? Cause i just used the bluetooth manager and it connect without fail.

According to the FUSE homepage, that model is not supported. http://mitsubishi-en-us.visteonhands...ephones_findit
i don't what what carrier the OP has, but the Verizon one is:
http://mitsubishi-en-us.visteonhands...&phone_id=4475
didn't try any others.
will the phone pair with any other Bluetooth devices - headphones, etc.? if anyone else he knows has a car with BT, see if it will pair with that car.
could just be a problem with his phone. My Galaxy Note 3 works fine.

sometimes factory resetting the phone after a software upgrade (yes, its a PITA backing up and restoring everything) will fix weird issues ...

It also seems to depend on the carrier. The same phone on two diff. carriers will have two diff results. And my current phone is not even listed, yet it works fine. Go figure.

Hi! I had the same issue last week when i bought mine. After several tries, it always said "Connection failed". The solution i found is here:
Connect your cellphone to another Bluetooth device, IE a Bluetooth ear set. For me, it was my ELM327 Bluetooth adapter.
while it is still connected to your other BT device, retry to pair it with your radio Bluetooth.
for me, it worked instantly!
If you dont have another BT device, BT link your phone to another phone.
seems like if bluetooth is not communicating with anything, it wont work. while connected to something else, it works fine for the first pair.
Hope that will work for you!
