adapter cable for old phone cradle disco 3.
Hi all.
Seen some really old posts about the nokia cradle inside the lid of the fridge, but wondered if anyone can tell me if you can actually get upgrade cable that plugs into it to be able to use new up to date samsungs?

The phones that had cables when the cars were new were pretty much obsolete then, I’d doubt very much that there would be cables for newer, never mind up to date, phones.

What are you hoping to achieve?
I had the cradle in mine but removed it for more room in the so called fridge and have a Samsung Note 9 that I use via the bluetooth module to make and receive calls in the vehicle

I also removed the Nokia phone cradle to free up a bit of room to the top of the cubby cooler but now the Bluetooth wont work. I've played around with the Gap iid and its various phone setting to no avail - any ideas?

If you have IID have you updated the D3 module to the D4 one?

Do you mean updating to the D4 module as a hardware change? No. Or is there an update using the iiD for a software update somehow?Stewart

Update the software using the IID, removes the need to input the 2121 code every time and also adds your contacts to the radio allowing you to scroll thru them using the radio buttons

Humm, my D3 has always auto-connected with bluethooth along with contacts available through radio unit. I've tried the various setting available in the iiD tool - fitted with out cradle with bluetooth, etc. I am a bit stumped Stewart
