I picked up my MG HS today (2020), I have never owned a car where I could connect my phone so I'm unclear about some things. Once you have setup/connected two phones, will the car automatically find them when you next get into the car. If both my wife and I are in the car and I want to make a call (as the driver) do I/my wife have to do anything on the screen in order to insure that the phone is calling from someone from my contacts list? many thanks.
Jerry, in your video 3:26, after showing a successful pairing of the car’s Bluetooth with the iPhone, you show the calls history and contacts, and both screens are blank unfortunately… well, I have the same issue. No contacts or calls history show up in my MG. Sync icon shows ♪♫ and ✆ ok however I’m unable to sync contacts when selecting download contacts option. I’ve tried unpairing and pairing again but I get the same result as on your video, no contacts or calls history. Can you help?
My one is showing blank as my phone had no contacts, it had been factory reset before the video. You will need to make sure your phone has a notification of uploading or sync contacts once reconnected.
BT is connected, however options that are enabled are for Calls and Contact Access only. Music is OFF, and when I toggle ON, it goes back to OFF. Any advice? Thank you.
Hello Taka, I have a MG HS Exclusive and have exactly the same problem. BT is connected for phone and music but does not play anything from my phone. Did you manage to resolve your issue?
Could not connect my Google maps at my MG ZS EXITE . I did connect blue tooth but maps does not showing . Thankyou for your support great help . Ingot my MG ZS EXITE 1.5 Australia version. So good small car with big way to drive
Do you have any tips on why the contacts are shown surname first using an android phone on this model? Is there anyway to show first name and then surname on the cars contacts list?
Hi Jerry. I have a brand new mg zs 2024, I have the ionize but connected, syncs on, all working great, I can see all contacts, make and receive calls, UT when I receive calls I only get the number and a “private number” text instead of the contact name!! Any ideas please?
Hey Jerry hope you can help as its driving me insane. I have an MG ZS. The radio station always defaults to 87.5mhz fm when i turn the car off and on. It does not start on the radio station i had when i turned the car off! Is this normal. Thanks.
Hi, if i connect my Samsung with a usb cable to my MG zs 2019 will i be able to listen to my phone audio like RUclips, Spotify ect... as the car has no aux port?

I connect by bluetooth it shows it has connected and has the icon for calls and music, yet only calls work and when i try click the music option to come off dab and it does nothing when i click this. I have factory reset the car many times and also restarted my phone and unpaired on both devices but still clicking the music icon does nothing. Is there anything else i can do?

You will need to make sure your phone has a notification of uploading or sync contacts once reconnected.
Nothing works for me too.😢 you should be making a short video on this that would be of great help.
Hi Jerry another video of yours that made my life easy. Got my new phone set up in a few minutes after watching your video. Happy New Year
Thanks Ann. Glad this helps. Happy new year to you!

Sorry I didn't get that or I haven't experienced that. You might want to reset your screen and have another go. Otherwise try the local shop.

@@sriramkaravatte Weirdly, i just unpaired / forget then pair again.
@@takaaxie Thanks a ton for responding quickly. So you are able to play songs from youtube / local playlist when Bluetooth is paired now?
@@sriramkaravatte Yes I can. Make sure to unpair the car from your phone, and unpair your phone from the car as well. Then re-pair.
Could not connect my Google maps at my MG ZS EXITE .
I did connect blue tooth but maps does not showing .

Hi there

It’s related to the phone I reckon.

I think that is to do with your phone or mobile settings.
Do wired and wireless android carpal. And stop start cruise video!!
Will do in the future. Make sure subscribe!
@@JerryPanandCars yessir.

Not normal. Try reset the system. Otherwise talk to the MG dealer.
Thank You
When 5 seconds resolves one week of noknowings😂😂😂
Hi, if i connect my Samsung with a usb cable to my MG zs 2019 will i be able to listen to my phone audio like RUclips, Spotify ect... as the car has no aux port?
It is best to use Bluetooth. The system may not be able to identify your phone as an usb storage.

I'm not sure. This sounds like the phone's setup isn't correct.
Hi jerry how come you dont have the outside temp located at the side of the clock
Needs system update. Talk to your dealer
Do you maybe have any idea why do i have to connect my phone everytime i drive the car?
Try reset the connections on both devices.
@@JerryPanandCars already tried, but nothing
Can you connect Android phone to carplay in mg3? I'm looking at buying this car 😊
No Android auto unfortunately. Only Bluetooth for Android. You can buy an aftermarket adaptor for Android auto
hi

Hi jerry. Ths for your quick reply. The is zst core 1.5l

I have to use a usb cable to play Spotify
My first 3 main screen show a car instead of navigation( middle icon). Please help me how to fix it
Your car doesn’t have in-built navigation. It is related to spec difference not a problem.
My phone is connected to the car from both the car and my phone’s end but when I play music it doesn’t play in the car but neither does it play on my phone’s speakers 😭
Change source on the screen.

Try another phone please. If it is still the same, go and talk to the dealer to fixing. If it works, then that's your phone's issue.
@@JerryPanandCars thank you very much 😊 🙏
Hi do I remove bluetooth pairing in the right section but no idea which button actually selects it as it just gos back to home everytime I get to the part I need to get too. mg3 vti 2016
