XDA Orbit with WM6 (Black and Blue Version 4.0) + Garmin Nuvi 660FM Text Messaging Issues :
Okay I currently use my Garmin Nuvi 660FM as my Bluetooth Car kit and overall it is a great piece of Kit but there is only one option that does not seem to work correctly the SMS Function to read messages on screen and reply, this function would be very handy as you could safely and easily read the larger text while on the go.
I have used the Jetware Bluetooth add in version 1.3 and this helps a little in order to add a small bit of functionality such as only one ringtone is now used instead of the Orbit using it's own ringtone and the same for the Garmin.
Also the Text Message option seems to be alive but somewhat limited:
1.) Is shows the Inbox as 0/0 Outbox as 0/0 and the Drafts folders as empty, even though at the start of connection is says syncronsing messages, it neither syncronises the Outlook Mail nor the SMS :(
2.) Also when trying to send a text message, it goes through the process but does not send at all.
So, what I want to know is that has anyone got this function to work with either a Garmin Nuvi with that facility or even a Tomtom with the same and if so how did you get it to work.
Thanks
Robbie
