Audioi Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 I have a Motorola Droid that sync'ed instantly to my new Mustang. I have been unable to receive text and have sync read the message. Anyone have any insight on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any insight on this? It's a Verizon thing. Verizon disables text via Bluetooth on all their phones. I think it's to prevent "tethering" your laptop to the web through your phone, or maybe to force you to use their special web services rather than transfer content from your computer. I heard one phone model (Eclipse?) from Verizon was able to text with SYNC, but that was an anomaly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
