got the phone today and all works perfect.

 

So, signal strength/phonebook/everything works fine?

 

yep all works perfectly

 

So how do you rate the phone? I had a quick play with a u600 at the weekend and it appeared v. nice. I like the Samsung phones, my wife has a D600 which pairs with my LCI 530d but it didn't want to download the phonebook.

I like my SE K750i which works fine but the joystick is now full of crud and tempremental to say the least.

 

hi guys, i've purchased this phone earlier this week and tried to pair w/my car immediately after i opened the box . the phone found the car and the car found the phone. but the problem is they just don't pair automatically like the couple motorola phones i had before. i have activated the bluetooth in my phone, i saw my car under "the device" and i even "authorised" it. but i have to hit "connect" every time i get into my car. it connected a few times but failed a few times as well. the weird thing is even if it is connected, the reception on the little antenna thingie on the idrive screen disappeared and the triangle doesn't show. i could use the voice dial but couldn't retrieve my phone book. 525iiiii, i sent you a pm but haven't received a reply from you yet. i guess you must be too busy driving . i really need help with this issue since i talk in the car a lot . i don't why people call me when i'm driving most of the time . thank you very much in advance.

 

sorry dont know as i have done all you have said and mine works fine maybe it is a software issue on the phone or car. sorry.

 

thanks for your reply, 525iiiii. i was thinking about the sw of my car. i guess it's time for me to tell the dealer my idrive screen not working "properly" again . anyone else can solve this mystery before i head down to my dealer?
