Mine did it once...Check your bt settings on the phone and make sure it's set to hidden on visibility after pairing it up. I did that, and all is well. I had it set to automatic or something. Once it's paired you don't want it looking for other devices as it will disconnect.

hmmm....thanks for the info...although due to being a Bronco fan in New Mex, I am unable to listen to your suggestions.

all kidding aside, thanks for the suggestion i will take a look at that in a few and report back as to if it worked or not.


(OT: there is someone on the Bronco Forums with ur name, is that you?)

hmm ok so my phone didnt have that option on it. but I did find out that my phone was not set to primary, and since setting it to be the primary phone. Since doing this it has stayed connected, but we'll see if it stays like that.
