iPhone5 handsfree connection does not work when receiving calls.

[alijabido]

I had no problem with my iPhone bluetooth 3 GS connection. I replaced the old iPhone with a new iPhone 5. Every thing works except when Receiving calls. It connects to Handsfree on the phone but there is no sound from speakers. I have to connect to phone and then connect back to Handsfree manually to activate it. Anyone experiencing the same issue?

I got the same problem. I fiddle with all the setting and I can't get it to work. However, if I make a call, it works, but not when I receive a call.

So I assume this is iPhone issue and not the CRV? BTW, is texting working with iPhone 5?

Howdy. This issue is affecting lots of folks. Sorry, I don't have any links handy, but you can Google and find many discussions. Some auto manufacturers are fixing it, others are waiting for Apple.

My iPhone 5 links up with my 2012 CRV (the basic model) over bluetooth and the audio on the handsfree works fine, although there does seem to be a pause for a second at the beginning of an incoming call answer. Keep messing with it, I'm pretty sure you can get it to work if I could. Are you using the latest iOS6 version?

Admins should create a sticky at the top, this is a WELL KNOWN ISSUE and more threads won't help!

I found this in an Apple forum and it works for me (Honda 2013 CR-V RES). Make this one-time setting change on your iPhone:

Bruce2125: I found that by going to Preferences/General/Accessibility/Physical and Motor/Incoming Calls and changing it from Default to Headset forces the iPhone to use the 'Headset' if one is available for incoming calls. As the bluetooth speaker on the handsfree is effectively a 'Headset' incoming calls are directed to the bluetooth speaker. When the phone is out of the car and the handsfree disconnects itself the phone behaves normally.

iPhone 5 with iOS 6.1 now fixes all problems.
