Thumbs up

Today I noticed on the I drive next to the signal strength for the phone a blinking triangle.

Thanks

Isn't it saying that you are roaming? (e.g. for BMW Assist; you are off the Verizon network and onto one of it's analog/TDMA roaming partners)

I think it means that the safety triangle fell off it's holder in the trunk and might cause rattling noises...thus the warning.

Also, I have a bridge available for sale in Brooklyn. Only used once by 50,000,000 old ladies.



Sorry,

Sam

I just started getting the Blinking Triangle as well, when headed out of my immediate area, but well within the Verizion network. The "Roaming" option in the communication settings menu is also locked ON.
