I just got a V50 BMW phone to replace the non-BMW V50 version that I have.

But....it is no different. It doesn't switch off automatically with the ignition and it doesn't show the incoming number or name that shows on the phone display on the radio display.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Andy

Hmmmm, I got a phone with mine when BMW installed the Handsfree kit, does your have the BMW logo when you switch it on??? AFAIK it doesn't turn on/off automatically and IIRC I had to enter numbers through the satnav to get them to come up on the dash.....

It does come up with the BMW logo and the model number on the label inside the phone is 6915442 BMW.....

I don't have a satnav so the display is just on the single line display of the radio.

When I dial out it shows the name and number, on incoming calls it just says 'PHONE'. But it did that on the non-BMW phone and I thought the advantage of having the BMW version was seeing the incoming name and /or number?

Cheers,
Andy
