Questions on options under IDrive Telephone Menu
I'm an Iphone 3GS user, in conjunction with my snap in adapter and F10 535.
In surfing the I-drive menus, i've noticed that when pulling up recently dialed #'s (or saying the voice command redial), it only presents me with a list of called numbers from the car's memory - not my I-phone's received call list. Is there any way to tap more into the 3GS content and listings through the car? Same goes for "Messages" under the telephone tab - nothing is ever in there and I don't know how it gets populated. I've received texts on my phone, but thats as far as the info gets. My 535 is an early build, non-combox model. Thanks! |

I'm not cool enough to own an iPhone, but my car/BT/phone works the same way. It's annoying. As for messages, maybe that's more of a European thing, because some idiot American will be reading his or her text messages, crash, and sue BMW.
