6NS Issue

I had 6NS properly coded and the Office option appears in the menu. The issue I am having is that no matter how many times I delete the phone and repair, I never get an option that allows me to assign a Phone 2. Mr. Boon had this same issue but it just started working for him.

Any suggestions on how to get Phone 2 active other than recycling?

Thanks

From the coding thread I sent you, did you try this? "I had to go into Options-scroll down-Configure bluetooth, and tick Telephone 2 and Office. You can then assign the 1 or 2 to each paired telephone, and the sms work"

Thank you!! That did it for the Phone 2 Option. I deleted all phones and repaired mine to Phone 2. Still no text messages or mail option, but I will keep playing with it. At least I know have the ability to have the two phones connected!!! Thank you again Opasha.

From my coding thread:

Enhanced Bluetooth (6NS): Add 6NS to your FA. VO Code HU_NBT. Then follow these steps after for your iPhone to pair properly (thank you @skalberti): Then you have to remove all bluetooth devices and re add them. And then configure them like Shawn said. Now for text messages to show up, go to the bluetooth menu on your phone, look for your last 5 of your vin. Hit info incon on the right. Check and make sure "show notifications" and "sync contacts" are checked on. Now whenever you're in your car and someone texts you an envelope icon will appear on your idrive. Now you can use Siri hands free and ask her to read your new texts. Then she'll give you the option to reply if you want. To get emails to show up, after your in your car and the phone is connected, double tap the home button and close the mail app that's running in the background. If it's not running in the background go ahead and click on the mail app after your phone has connected to your car. Now emails will show up and they can be read to you. Keep in mind, the idrive will only alert you of messages received while connect to your car. If you received a message before you get in your car, it won't display it after you connect to your car. Also, if you're having issues with Phone 2 not showing up, try this: "Options-scroll down-Configure bluetooth, and tick Telephone 2 and Office. You can then assign the 1 or 2 to each paired telephone."
