Is there any way to get my 05 525I to display who is calling in while i'm already on the phone? Currently, I have to hang up and then scroll to missed calls. Quite annoying. Idrive, no NAV, iPhone4.

Doesn't your iPhone display that information? Just check that.

I keep my phone in my pocket while driving. Kind of the beauty of Bluetooth and having calls controlled by the idrive.

My Droid X does the same thing. I will hear a call waiting but have no clue who it is unless I look at the phone itself. My iphone on the other hand always showed who was beeping through.

I miss my iphone....

I've talked to quite a few folks about this issue and the bottom line, It is what it is. Did your Iphone sync right up with your E60. I have a Crackberry, my 4 or 5th phone with this ride, will have to go with the Apple when Verizon has it.

Synced up perfectly the first time and works flawlessly, just really wish I had the ability to see who is calling while i'm on the phone. Oh well, guess I cant have it all.
