My iToy is the worst phone I've had. I have a Blueant portable bluetooth unit and the iPhone only works on it intermitantly. My old HTC had no problems, nor did my wife's LG. The iPhone is good for music and has a few niftly aps, but for email, and as a phone its more useful as a paperweight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOC291 Member 12 Member For: 16y 1m 5d Posted 04/12/09 03:32 AM Share Posted 04/12/09 03:32 AM Hi All,I have an FG XR6T (November 08), also have an iPhone.iPhone connects, works for a while I can make calls etc... and then although its still "connected" I can no longer use the car to answer or make calls, I usually wait till I get to a red light, turn car off and then on and then once again I can play "bluetooth roulette".Car went in for its 30k service on Wednesday, there is a new software Mod for FG's that make the iPhone work, BUT, if your car is older then 6 months (I think) its a $450 (retail) upgrade.Has anyone done this, or have taken delievery of their new car in the last few months, the reason why I ask is that I want to make sure the iPhone works, and if it brings your address book names up or just numbers.Cheers All.
