Some iPhone owners that have converted to 1.1.3 have been experiencing some issues with Bluetooth devices suddenly becoming incompatible, such as Garmin GPS units, integrated Bluetoooth car systems, etc. A fix for the problem has recently been found, though it's less than ideal.<!--break-->
To fix the problem, you must restore your iPhone. Connect it to your computer and click "Restore" in iTunes. When it prompts you, choose the option “Set up as new iPhone.†Once the phone has been restored, re-attempt pairing with the problematic Bluetooth device.
Unfortunately, restoring your iPhone will remove all customizations from the device, so keep that in mind.
