My problem is that my phone will not stay connected with the car when I have address book transfer enabled. I do not know if the problem is bad characters in the address book or if it is just too many entries. I have somehting like 450 phone numbers (and 380 contacts) in my database. I am trying to figure out if having too many phone numbers will crash the connection, or if the problem may be something else?
You move up to the 9th Generation ULF that has storage for 1000 numbers.

Honestly, you should be fine on the older modules, as they have a storage capacity of 500 numbers. Any more and you'll need a newer ULF.
