iDrive Navigation and Phone

M3E92Junkie · 07-02-2009, 06:37 AM

Hi,

Wanted to see if others were facing similar limitations with iDrive.

I cannot seem to make a phone call while using the Navigation on iDrive.
Is this a limitation or another one of my dumb user problems?

Even though I have the old iDrive system I'll try that when I head out for lunch today & report back! I'll try phoning you..

Thanks Luke.

here's the sequence of events:

Nav on
Phone call comes through
Junkie picks up the call
iDrive / Car cancels the call after a few seconds
Junkie gets pist!

I knew there was a reason I hung on to my old NOKIA 6230i.

AMK - that issue happens with my HTC Touch Pro.

Just got my car back tonite so will see if the iPhone has the same issues.

Gents - the iPhone works fine with Nav. It must have been the HTC !!

Solution - bin the HTC phone.

Problem solved.
