well the testing of Toshiba TG01 is a NO

without Jetware, the only think it did right was transfer of the phonebook
with Jetware, the only improvement was the sync of only a certain category from my phone book...but I will keep trying as this is my phone now and it have to work

can you please write a more detailed explanation how did you make it work?

I have a Toshiba TG01 with WM 6.5 and does not work (not only SMS feature, but even the call function is a mess)

I have installed the Jetware 1.4 (the free version) and it only work with the category sync feature (I only want to sync CAR category from my phonebook with the car)

What version of WM do you have?
what version of Jetware do you have?

your help is much appreciated

Do you have your Nav system configured in some special way (i.e. the SMS settings) via the service mode?

I might be wrong, but from my experience, Idrive cars do not have sms feature anymore (probably for safety reasons)

try one of the phones listed in this topic as sms compatible or visit bmw website - they have a table in the BT section and you can see there if there is sms function for your phone or not

I'm referring to non-idrive cars.

then I guess nothing has to be done apart the fact to use a sms compatible phone - see the list at the beginning of the thread

that is my point - I do not know of any changes in the settings (in fact I do not about the existence of them), but regardless , it should work with all default settings anyway if the phone has the right software.

that is the point of my thread - to identify the phones which support this feature...the bmw prior to idrive does support it by default

And that is my point. There are 3 settings that can be set in the service mode menu that seem to be related to SMS. Would configuring them allow additional phones to have SMS functionality? They exist for a reason otherwise they would not be there. I want to know why.

I do not recall any special settings in the nav service menu that relate to SMS, but I will look again. Also, my Mom's car has a MKIV and a 7th generation ULF, and she gets all her SMS message. I did not change any of the nav settings related to phone or SMS for her car. I am pretty sure that anything SMS or phone related is at its default in both of our cars.
