Phone connection problems

Problem

Solution

My passkey is rejected when I
attempt to pair (or bond) my
mobile phone with my
handheld.

Some mobile phones require that you enter the passkey
within a specific timeframe. Make sure you have a passkey
in mind and that you enter it immediately when prompted.

If your passkey is rejected, your phone may have a
preassigned passkey; see the documentation included with
your phone for information. The documentation might
refer to a Bluetooth connection as a Bluetooth pair or a
Bluetooth link.

If you need additional information about pairing your
phone and handheld, refer to the Phone Pairing Handbook at
