My Ride: '05 545i | Orient Blue | Blk Lthr | Sport | 6 Sp MT | Cold | Logic 7 | Sirius | iPod | Rear Heat | PDC | Rear SRS | NAV | HUD | AngeliBright Blue
Up Next: New Radar Detector (Valentine 1 w/remote), SolarGuard 6% on all windows, Italian Euro Plate)
'07 ML 500 | Alpine Blue | Blk Lthr | Pkg II | Lighting Pkg | Multicontour Seats | 6 CDC | iPod (Wife's Ride)
Fond memories of: '03 540ia (the tightest car I ever owned!)
When the little phone lights up next to the number of bars what does that little phone mean? Sometimes it shows up other times it doesn't for me (again this is in lower middle section of the iDrive)
Thanks
Thanks

It's usually visible when you have a "missed call"...
No kidding... I will have to test that.
Thanks again!

Or text message.
Sorry for missing that if it has already been posted somewhere. I am searching, but all I find is that SMS works ONLY with the CPT9000. Nothing in this Bluetooth & Cell Phone Forum.

Hmm, I thought it just meant my phone was paired. I know it is displayed all the time with my RAZR, missed call/ message or not.

That icon Rudy posted appears for me when my Motorola Q is paired with the car. That's the only way I can tell if my phone is paired without physically taking it out and looking at it.
