I certainly hope they are working on this.? It seems like it would be such a simple fix with software.? Why are they doing nothing??? I want to be able to call someone and leave a voice mail.

[/quote]About the 5 ring limit. I've tried several phones with my car searching for one with coverage I could stand. I used the V505 and V551. Both had the 5 ring limit. I then got the v710 with Verizon and the 5 ring limit is gone. I leave voicemails all the time. Can others confirm or deny that it is partly a phone issue???

Yes, it is a feature..... that's my point. It should be easy to fix that way. It is an annoyance.

My mom is visiting me this week. She has a V710.
I will pair her phone and try tonight. I will report back.
I do not think this is a phone issue, however. I have a BT headset for my phone, and it allows me to leave voicemails.

Thanks alot for this
And u too ledbettm I will take both versions with me as I llike to give the service people as much info as I can as they don't always see these things if no one has tried or has problems. My dealer is kinda smallish so I believe I am the first for some things.

I paired my mom's Moto V710 with my car, and dialed my cell phone while it was turned on.
The car rang my phone 5 times, and then hung up before voice mail answered.
This is a feature BMW put on the system, thinking they were being clever and convenient. They were sorely mistaken.
I personally do not see how someone could possibly do something so idiotic? It makes no sense to have a ring limit.

I just read the latest SB on Bluetooth. Very interesting information. I am afraid to post because I think it is not legal. In summary it adresses all kinds of issues with intermittent pairing, sound quality etc. If you reply to this post with your specific problems I am happy to check the SB and tell you what it says. This is for North American builds ONLY.
Thanks
Thanks
