Bluetooth and phone book loading...

late 05 SL, silver snap in BT unit, Razr 3, T mobile. It works well, but will only load one name (the first one) from my phone book. I would think it less strange if it loaded no names, but only one? Does it take an exceptiionally long time to load? I have attmepted to disable Bluetooth and pair again, but result is the same. Any thoughts or experience? Thanks...

Just Checking...

You are pressing the button on the Bluetooth unit? That loads the phone book

If it's not that... Then check the firmware on the phone, and make sure it's the correct one that AWS lists as compatible with the Mercedes on their website.

Best,

Working now...just slow

to load. Overall, works well. Audio quality is not quite as good as in my 6, but screeen is easier to use.
