Has anyone managed this? I can only get my phonebook transferred across from the phone via bluetooth each time the phone and zumo connect which is a pain. The zumo forum seems to indicate that it is possible but when I tried what it suggested I had no success. I've also phoned Garmin who didn't think it was possible but just in the offchance someone knows a way?

It's a nokia n95 by the way...
 
with n95 it should load phone book each time zumo and phone connect. if phone not connected then phonebook will not show up on zumo

Nope - with my N95 the phonebook only shows when I manually transfer it each time it connects to the zumo

Yea - With my Nokia N91 I had to select the whole phone book and transfer it manually to the Zumo every time I got on my GSA.
It just the way they are.

However I changed to a Sony Ericsson and it does it all automatically:aidan

I've got an N73 and followed the instructions below, I think it works for all the N series

1) Remove the pairing in the Zumo and the Phone
2) Put/Leave the phone and zumo in bluetooth "ON" mode
3) Download the relevant package: http://europe.nokia.com/A4143881
4) Use the Nokia PC Sync software to install this package to the phone
5) On the Nokia: SETTINGS > APPLICATIONS > MY OWN > DOWNLOAD and configure enabling "auto start"
6) On the Zumo: SETTINGS > BLUETOOTH > Connect Phone (Add)

Once you are paired, you will see "transferring data" -- this is the auto enabled contacts software sending the whole address book via bluetooth to the Zumo.

Thanks Phil - I tried this last week and got a "File Corrupted" message on the phone when I attempted to do the install.
I phoned Garmin and they said that if enough people ask for the feature it will be worked on and incorporated into future software updates.

David - while you're on to Garmin - please ask them to incorporate a feature that when someone texts me, the message comes up on my ZUMO.:aidan

I think Doug (Bigbird) had to try a couple of times before he got it to work, but work it does:thumb2
