I have a Samsung t259 phone on a T- Mobile pay as you go plan and am trying to pair with bluetooth on 2012 Sonata. When I try to download contacts I get each contact listed 3 times and can't distinguish between cell, home and office numbers when calling.

 

Does Hyundai have a list of approved compatible handsets to use with bluetooth in 2012 Sonata?

 

I believe if you go to the Hyundaiusa.com webite you can find a list of compatible phones. But I would think any phone with bluetooth would sync-up to our cars. Good luck.

 

This is response I rec'd from Hyundai:
"We are currently in the process of updating our Bluetooth® compatibility list and encourage you to periodically check Hyundai Bluetooth Compatibility for the latest information available. In the meantime, you are able to reference compatible phones for the 2011 Hyundai Sonata on our website. Please keep in mind, phones released after 2009 are not listed. We apologize for any disappointment this may cause."
List hasn't been updated for 2012 Sonatas and it doesn't include phones released after 2009. Guess I'll just live with the way my contacts downloaded on Bluetooth.

 

I had trouble pairing my iPhone 12pro to my 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe but tried the USB port and it worked. Just turn your Bluetooth on on your phone and plug in to the USB port. Then follow directions. You’ll need the pass code. Good luck all.
