When you say your phone is “connected”…what do you mean? Is it connected using a cable…or is it connected wirelessly through Bluetooth?

When you go to DEVICES is your phone “paired” to the car and do both the telephony & music note icons appear which verifies that the phone is paired for both telephony and BT streaming?

If not, you need to pair and then select for both telephony and music streaming (if car has this option):

My phone is connected wirelessly through bluetooth. If i go to devices when im connected via bluetooth then it shows that no devices are connected. I cant make calls from the car but i can do it through my phone. First when i got the car it worked very well. But i removed my device from the car and when i tried to connect it again it showed always like there where no devices connected through bluetooth.. but it is connected in fact. very strange.

here are photos on how it is when my phone is connected via bluetooth
