hey all, sorry for the redundancy on the topic, but have a couple quirks with BT I thought you might have a solution for.

when I dial a number, either via i-drive, or the phone itself, BT kind of goes in and out (radio comes on and off), the phone starts to ring for a few seconds, and if no answer, it ends the call by itself.

this is stupid because I can't leave a message on voicemail, or give the other end more tiem to pick up. anywhere I can change this setting?

I also have frustration when someone calls me and I answer the call with BT by pressing <ACCEPT>.

I ususally cannot hear or tell if the call has actually been connected, so usually I just start talking.

I wish there was an audible tone or visual indication that the call is now connected.

For your other topics, I don't have an answer yet, but I'll try some things too.

Maybe Hormazd or Rudy might know these answers....

I know your frustration with the no indication when you "ACCEPT" a call. Also it's very frustrating when the car decided to end the call after a few rings and you cannot leave a message.

Here's another one..... all 10 digits don't show up on the idrive screen. Only the last 7 digits show up. I have a v600 where you can store multiple numbers under the same name. Problem is I can't tell if the number displayed is someone's cell, home, or work number.

Anyone else have this problem

how about this - does anyone have a freaking ear piercing tone when the phone rings, from the car's speakers?

Atleast with CIP 13.3 these are all known issues. BMW, we would like to see them resolved in addition to no echo or feedback at any volume and the ability to issue a command like transfer, which will automatically transfer the call from the car to headset and back. We would also like to press the phone button on the steering wheel to toggle mutiple incoming calls. This is currently possible but only from the head set.
