Cannot use radio when activating Bluetooth!

jofritz · 02-14-2010, 08:29 PM

when i first got the car everything worked great. 5 days later, when my phone syncs with bluetooth, everything else freezes up (radio controls, source switch, etc.) all the screen will say is "Connected" and Duration"
i dont have idrive.
Thanks!

Phone? Try restarting phone handset (often a battery pull...)

My phone did that once. I think I did something wierd like dial a call then hang up right away. I believe I shut off bluetooth and turned it back on, but can't remember for sure.

was having the same issue after a firmware update to my BB Tour.

like he said, just pull the battery out for 60 seconds.... now works flawlessly.
