My Ride: 530i 2006 Jet Black w/tan leather. Premium package; Sport Package; Sat Radio

I have a blackberry 7100 with bluetooth that I use in my E60. It works great except for one problem. When I am talking on the phone through my e60 car system it will drop my current call to pick up another incoming call.

At first it asks me if I want to accept or reject the incoming call. Before I can do anything, it drops my first call and answer the second one.

BTW, this does not happen when I am just using the cell phone without the car system.

Any thoughts on how to get this to stop happening?

Thanks!

...hmm...sounds strange...

The only thing I can thin of is to see if you have a setting of 'Auto Answer' anywhere in your phone, especially under 'Headset' or 'Car Settings'. In Motorola phones (mine), there's a 'Auto Answer' under 'Headset' and the phone will do that while a headset is connected but not when just using the phone....

Good luck!

I thought the E60(car) didnt even support call waiting. I have a Motorola V3 one of the most compatible phones with the car and whenever I get an incomming call it drops my current call and never even answers the incomming call. So basically I lose both calls.

So if it is also happening with your mot cell that tells me it is not the phone but somethig going on with e60.

Thats what I think, I always thought it was the Car thats just not capable of getting incomming calls when you're on the phone. It never bothered me cuz that doesnt really happen that often. I'll have to check again. I did recently update my CIP from 16.2 to 22 or 23 last month so maybe its "fixed"
