The BT in both my RL and TL are awesome. They work beautifully with my Cingular RAZR and people often comment they can't tell I'm on my cellphone, much less in the car on a handsfree!

nokia e70

Works great with my Nokia E70. I don't get battery and antenna strength, but I'm a phone firmware revision behind. The calls work great though.

I have two bluetooth phones, a S710a from Sony Erickson, and a Razr. The erickson shows battery and signal, the razr shows only signal. The Erickson does link with acura link but the Razr does. Both phones seem to link up well with the HFL. I usually use the Erickson cause the Razr is the wife's phone.

I love the HFL but one complaint. I think the link uses battery power on the phone a lot quicker but this could be my imagination. It just seems that every time I use the Erickson the battery level indicador on the Rl starts to zap the battery very quickly. Anyone else notice what I'm talking about.

My Treo 700wx from Sprint works all right. The battery and signal don't work, but since you can't seem to view those unless actually using the HFL I don't mind. My only issue is that the the HFL takes a LONG time to display the Caller ID of incoming callers. If I actually wait to see it, the call rolls into voice mail, so I either answer blindly, or look at the display on the phone.

I can both dial and answer using the HFL buttons however, and the transfer function works flawlessly.

with the 700? Currently my 325 allows send and receive of calls with caller ID and call waiting, but no sig strength and no battery level. I am with Sprint.
I have a Verizon 700p and it works fine with the HFL, displaying signal strength but not battery power. The only issue I have is that if I get a text message and don't dismiss it from the screen, I cannot initiate a call using HFL. I also have rare (happened 4-5 times in my six month ownership of the 700p) Bluetooth dropouts that require a soft reset of the phone to correct.

I have the 700P with Verizon. The calling part works fine with HFL. It doesn't, however, show battery or signal strength. HFL also always indicates that you are roaming -- which you aren't. It's annoying but the calling features work fine.

In contrast, my Motorola V710 (also with Verizon) worked perfectly on all accounts -- except that the Treo has better sound quality through the HFL than the V710 did. I guess you can't have everything.

Oh, BTW... Caller ID works well with both.

Just FYI, was given the following by my dealer:

(According to the Sevice Manual)
In order to reset the Moonroof Control Unit, follow these steps:

1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Press and hold the tilt switch and turn the ignition switch ON (II).
3. Release the tilt switch and turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 four times.
5. Press and hold the moonroof open switch until 3 seconds after the moonroof is fully opened.
6. Press and hold the moonroof close switch until 3 seconds after the moonroof is fully closed (tilted).
7. Confirm that the moonroof is reset by using the moonroof AUTO OPEN and AUTO CLOSE function.
