let me borrow your SL550 and i'll let you know...

what do you mean by latest sprint rom? the latest official is 3.35. the latest leaked 'official' is rom 3.49 with radio 3.39.10 and it does have some BT improvements. i know someone mentioned a car BT system that started recognizing their titan as of 3.49/3.39.10.

cool, please do let us know as this is probably relevant for the guys from the previous discussion, i think they had infiniti and/or bmw.

if it doesnt work out, i know which one i'd pick. one SL550 is worth 323 titans...

funny thing is i just had a bmw and it would connect but not transfer the contact list but i didnt care cause i drive was so tedious...but i love the system in the benz so itd be nice if it worked.

(just downloaded the ROM...installing!)

Congrats on your new car! I wasnt able to get it to work with bluetooth system either..... wish it was SL550! :) Drive safe!

I do not have the same vehicle, thankfully, but I have a 2008 Ford Fusion with Sync and it connects to the Mogul fine and downloads the phonebook, does all that fun stuff.

It can't do the text message reading/composing that Sync offers, but thats a Mogul limitation.

It has worked with just about every firmware I have used, both official and DCD's since whatever firmware first allowed us to use GPS (thats just around when I got the car).

It does some odd things, like for whatever reason, if I use the bluetooth stereo option (if I wanted to stream music to my car over bluetooth for whatever reason) it mutes my phone after I shut off my car. I normally keep it on vibrate, it turns it to complete silent.

But from what I read thats a Mogul issue, and turning off Bluetooth Stereo streaming solves it. Regular hands free calling works great.

So hopefully that tells you something, the Mogul is fully capable of being used with bluetooth vehicle audio systems, I guess its just picky about which ones.

Although the 3.39 radio and 6.1 ROMS made Jetware Mobile software obsolete for connection to my Audi (including phonebook sync), you may want to try in with the Benz if the upgrades alone don't work for you. The biggest improvement for me on the 3.39 radio compared to 3.35 was with bluetooth.

I would read the owners manual of your Benz. I have noticed that most expensive cars have there own festive way of pairing a phone to the car.

I have an E350. The car would recognize the mogul. It did not transfer the contacts initially ( first 2 weeks) but not one day it did. Showed the same behavior with 3.35 as well as the leaked 3.39.
