Re: MKI Series New Firmware Update version 2.02

I am greatly disappointed in the firmware update. Since I updated to 2.02, the voice recognition is horrible when trying to make a phone call. It has essentially rendered the device useless. After 6 or 7 tries I sometimes get the correct number to call. However, I cannot adjust the volume. I turn the knob, but it has no effect. I used to recommend the Parrot products, but I can no longer do so.

Is a new update in the works? Is there a way to roll back to the previous version?

This update bricked my mki9200. I installed it and it worked for 3 trips in my car and now there is absolutely nothing when I turn my car on. I have taken the screen off and on and restarted the car a bunch of times but no luck. What's up?

Disappointed:
- The Airplay doesn't work. Needs to switch to iPhone built-in speakers and switch back to parrot to get sound
- Does not get connected automatically via Bluetooth once disconnected to the iPhone connector.

Used to work like a charm with the previous version 1.96
Please fix!

Very disappointed...

One year past since Windows Phone 7 on the market and nothing done to support mki9000 basic functions, like make a simple call.   If I don't shout (or stop the car), the other side can't ear me... 

If I receive a text message... "Who would you like to call"

unbeliavable...

Re: MKI Series New Firmware Update version 2.02

I have a Nokia Lumia 800, running WP7.5. I have similar problems, but have done the following to make the best of the situation:

1. On the MKi9100 - change voice control to "phone" instead of the parrot. That way I can use the phone's voice activation and create text messages hands free. The voice recognition on the Lumia 800 is great.

2. On the Phone - in settings/speech, set "read aloud incoming text messages" to "off". It's a shame we can't use that feature effectively with the MKi9100, but by turning it off, at least incoming text messages don't interrupt the car stereo and ask "who do you want to call?".

Whats funny is I am sure they are partners with Microsoft, and they are not paying attention to the fact that Windows Phone is by Microsoft.

Who is the account manager that works with them?

mpozzan -
Yes the latest release (2.11) has fixed the issues with Windows 7.5.  I installed the update last week and have not expereinced the previous problems that were reported.  I have been able to receive text messages, and the system will read them to me properly, without receiving the "who would you like to call" message.  I believe the recognition software is also working better than before, but I have been on version 1.6 since that was the only version which was at least receiving text messages for me.  I hope to begin playing with the release more as time goes on, but for now I am very pleased with the latest version.

Re: MKI Series New Firmware Update version 2.02

There is no forum section for Parrot MK6100 / MK6000.

On the web, do not appear, mobile phones compatible with the Parrot MK6100 / MK6000.

For years the Parrot MK6100 / MK6000 not receive firmware updates.

Why does this happen with Parrot MK6100 / MK6000? The CK 3xxx are much older and have support and updates.

Re: MKI Series New Firmware Update version 2.02

I finally updated my MKi9000 and what spain that was.  The reason I updated is because when I play Pandora radio on my Iphone 4s it discon.nects after one or two songs.  Since the update it hasn't.
