Hi, I'm new to this form, so I tried to do a search but did not find an answer to my problem, I have a Garmin 885T GPS that I just got working with Bluetooth and my phone (LG AX8600) Alltel, all was working fine then I uploaded some POI and software and now the phone won't pair up with the GPS, is there an EZ fix for this? or should I call Garmin. Thanks

Did you try
Did you try the complete process? My phone sometimes drops the Garmin after an update and I have to go through the discovery process again.

I tried the whole process
I tried the whole process per the instruction manual including removing the battery and replacing it, the gps wont recognize the phone and the phone cant find the gps.

Well the GPS
The GPS has to find the phone so if you have set the Bluetooth profile in the phone to hidden, it won't find it - even if it was paired before. The profile has to be set to allow other devices to connect. My phone would connect if it was set to hidden after it once paired, but if anything disrupted the pairing it wouldn't pair until I set the profile to discover new devices.

That was it, the phone is spring loaded in the hidden posistion after one min.
Thanks for the help
