I have a motorola Razr V3 with cingular service. The phone pairs very well with the car and downloads phone book great.
I have a question, the triangle ( roaming I assume) is always there on the display. My phone is not roaming. Whay is it always there?
Also does others phone ring once or twice before the car rings? It that normal?
Thanks

 

Even though your phone does not indicate that you are roaming, and if you are on a nationwide plan, you won't be charged, you are actually using an ATT site. As they complete the conversion of old TDMA ATT sites to GSM and convert each site to the same network, this will go away. Its work in progress after the merger.

Yes, it does. It takes a couple of seconds for the I-drive to display the call. This, along with other annoyances should get fixed in future software upgrades from BMW.
