Hi,
If all this is true, it must complete Blackberry on its website regarding the Bluetooth specification Z10. More deprive themselves of a number of customers affected by this important protocol Bluetooth is an unpardonable and risk their very expensive. As for me, I absolutely need a phone that allows me to call in my car and in good conditions. All German cars are concerned, Mercedes, Audi, Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, etc. ..
If all this is confirmed, I would go as Nokia is still a model that works with this protocol (Nokia PureView).

I don't know anything about cars, but I think that if I were you, I would simply look at the car documentation, and see what are the BlueTooth requirements for a phone to work 100% with the car.
And then see if rSAP is required or if SAP is enough.

The problem is not our knowledge the in car Bluetooth systems we use, it is that Blackberry are not upfront about the Bluetooth profiles supported in the technical specifications so we cannot determine compatibility. Also SAP and rSAP are very similar and so confusion is very likely.
Blackberry have it in their power to provide adequate information on their phones capabilities and a simple statement of supported Bluetooth profiles would have informed most people. Also, to avoid any confusion if SAP is listed the words in brackets (rsap not supported) would make things abundantly clear.
Finally, I would not consider going back to Nokia, too many scars from past failings even though they are moving forward. Blackberry is in the same place and needs to gain the trust and confidence of existing customers and attract new ones if it is to survive in this very competitive environment.
Does anyone agree with me, just press like if you do.

Hi,
Yes Bluetooth profile defined between automakers and manufacturers of mobile phones at the time is SAP. My car runs like this for years. The only problem today is the site of Blackberry can not find information on the Bluetooth profiles supported by the Z10 simply. I think Blackberry should promptly update the technical specifications of the Z10, regarding bluetooth.
