Hi GSers,
I have finally found a minute to ask about the setup I have been running. I have the Navigator V with iPhone 6 plus and Cardo Backtalk all connected together, but they do not seem to be doing what I need from them. It is very temperamental and its behaviour seem to change from time to time.
I use it mainly for navigation, which works fine and I get spoken instruction to my helmet. However, making and receiving calls is an absolute chore. I get the announcement on the Nav V that someone is calling. When I answer it I usually get nothing into my helmet even though the call connects. It seems to get answered on the phone if it gets answered at all.
What I am looking for is the ability to use the navigation and to answer and make calls, ideally using the Navigator V. Also, I quite like to use Siri when it actually works or I find myself in a place with network coverage.
I have learnt to pair the phone first and the satnav second which makes Siri work sometimes by a single press of a phone button. Nevertheless, I still can not answer calls, be it on the Packtalk or Nav V.
I remember reading about it somewhere in past but I don not think there was actually a good fix there described. I am rather peed off with the whole thing as it is nearly a thousand pounds worth of kit and it behaves like a cheap junk form 1900th century.
Is there any point doing a fresh install on the Nav V? I had issues with the map not installing properly and running out of memory. It seems to work now though. If clean install helps, how do you do it?
Can anyone help, please?
On a good note, I have been enjoying my new GSA and have just finished 5000 miles since August of last year.
Cheers,
Tom
