Hi kiwix5,

I had an M600i for a couple of months now and it doesn't work with my 530i. Is there a difference between the x5 and the e60??

Please see my thread here http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=27742

Regards

Actually they are rolling out UMTS and HSDPA simultaneously. HSPDA is actually just an upgrade to UMTS the same way EDGE is an upgrade to GPRS. It just offers faster speeds, but uses the same technology.

Ok I understand that, but you said UTMS. Where is there UTMS currently?

It's UMTS. And yes, Cingular has UMTS, but only on the 850 & 1900 MHz bands. The problem is that most UMTS (or WCDMA - another term for UMTS) phones only have the 2100 MHz band which is used in Europe and the Middle East.

Here is a list of the locations and maps of Cingular's UMTS coverage:

Hi IQI,

It might pay to check that you have the latest rev of firmware loaded into your phone,.. also I dont know what rev the BT kit is in your 530,.. Mine was only installed this year, so I believe is the newset kit available....I guess that may have something to do with it...

can you please tell us exactly what you're doing to connect nokia e61 and your bmw bluetooth system? i can't get them to connect at all. i have navigation system MK IV with software update version 28 and nokia's latest firmware update and a z4 m coupe.
please tell us what car model/interface/phone software etc. you have used and what steps you took exactly to successfully pair your bluetooth phone with the bmw. also please indicate if you have i-drive, navigation system or business radio and if you know which versions. i really could use this info to resolve my problem and get this to work for all nokia e61 owners.

many thanks in advance.

Just wondering if your M600i is still working with your X5 BT. Does it connect each time you enter the X5? How about SMS and address book transfers? Also would you recommend this cell phone?
Thanks!!
