I had a similar situation, but in my case I could pair the Android phone and receive calls, but when I tried to place a call by voice dialing from the car, the phone would call the number but the audio remained on the phone, and the car thought the phone was idle.

I replaced the car's Bluetooth ULF (gen 5) with the latest (gen 13) one and everything is working well now. I suggest checking your ULF part number against this list to see how out-of-date it is. BTW, don't believe that list about newer parts not being available from BMW dealers - I got the latest 84-10-9-154-358 ULF from my dealer for $375 (Bimmernav wants $599).
