Tom Tom Go 700 / phone messaging problem

furterfan

I wonder if anyone has had problems picking up mobile phone messages thru' bluetooth/ TTG 700.
I have a 700 and a nokia 6230. bluetooth is enabled and phone calls in/out and messages out are fine.
However, when I recieve a text message (just something simple like 'test')
the TTG says it cannot receive it. Has anyone else had this problem?

I have the 500 and a 6230 and it will both receive and send messages via the TT. The only function it does not seem to support is importing the phone contacts be they either on the SIM or phone memory.

I have also discovered that since upgrading to 5.202 there is an option to set the phone volume independent of the directions volume. When on a call another menu is available which allows the volume to be increased at 10% increments. Not sure at which software revision it was introduced but I found it by accident after upgrading the other day. To reach the menu during a call chose the mobile phone icon on the usual menu and it opens a different menu with the volume options on it. This was discussed as a "wishlist" feature on another thread a month or so ago - but I cannot find it just now.

I've got the same SMS problem as you - noticed it today.

Wierd it works with a 500. I wonder what the difference is?

Has anyone got any ideas?

Looks like a bug.

The SMS texts have now deleted themselves (upon reset) and traffic is working again - wierd 8O

Anyway logged with TT as an issue - let's see what I get back!!!

Very strange. I have both a 700 and a Nokia 6230 and both the phonebook function and the SMS function work well. It may be down to the firmware of the phone rather than a problem with the 700???

Could be - what's your firmware version?

*#0000#

The 0 are zeros

Latest firmware for 6230 is 5.35 I think (maybe 5.40 rumoured)

Last time I had to contact Tom Tom support (~3 - 4 months ago) I got my enquiry answered the next day.
So, I don't know if they are extra busy, or this problem has them beat, but I haven't had an answer yet.

I am using a Nokia 6230 with 128 MMC card & v 5.35 firmware.
