DB S600

With the Motorola V710 from Verizon Wireless you are unable to transfer your phonebook to your Lexus. Unfortunately Verizon tweaked some of the V710's Bluetooth features and in doing so disabled the function in question. I do not believe it to be a problem with the car but one with the phone; as you are able to transfer such with other Bluetooth phones (Motorola V600).

KORT: "I don't mind that it does not ring since it does sillence the radio during an inbound call, and thats all the notice I need." Yes, but do you always have the radio on? Could you please do me a favor and tell me if your Lexus makes any noise when there is an incoming call (I understand that the phone does not, but does your car?)... THANK YOU.

Haplain: Your theory of having the parking brake on worked! Thank you very much.

Is there any way of placing an outgoing call (through the nav system - not to override such by dialing a number on the phone) while the vehicle is in motion? I thought that you could place calls to one touch dial presets, however, they disappear once you start moving. Thank you.

Please note that I am refering to watching DVDs on the in dash Navigation screen with use of the DVD changer. Thank you.

To my understanding a feature of the 2004 Lexus LX470 is that you are able to watch DVD's while the car is on and in Park. When attempting such all that comes up is the DVD's audio - no video. Am I doing something wrong? Should I take my vehicle to the dealer? Thank you.

Does anyone know where to find a complete listing of the 2004 Lexus LX470's C-BEST features (i.e.: all doors unlock upon a single press of the key vs. only the driver's door unlocks)? Thank you.

No word on the update yet. Sorry.

ENDLESS: Are the parts that you speak of OEM??? If you post something on Ebay, I would definately consider it. THANK YOU.

I did find this though... http://www.lexusoman.com/English/select/lx470.html http://www.alsayeronline.com/lexus/lx470/e...70_features.asp It seems that for the LX470, "euro" lenses are a more "middle eastern" accessory than a European one. If anyone has any information, please share. THANK YOU.

LX / LANDCRUISER OWNERS: Does anyone know where I can find clear corner lenses for my 2004 Lexus LX470? After an endless search of the internet, I continue to come up empty handed. When purchasing clear "euro" corners for my two other vehicles (94 MB S500 / 00 LR RR HSE), it seemed to be a much easier find. Note that I am looking for OEM Lexus / Toyota parts, not aftermarket manufacturer items. THANK YOU.

Just to sum up... Motorla V710s are available at RadioShack stores now and will become available at Verizon stores August 11th. With a two year contract expect to see a price of $320 minus a $70 rebate at both locations. When using the phone in bluetooth mode, you do not have to have it in any specific location, as long as it is in a "30 foot" range of the its bluetooth compliment (the LX). As far as Motorla addressing the issue of the phone going silent in bluetooth mode, they replied with a request for my to call software support and do a live troubleshooting. Havn't gotten around to that yet. That would be GREAT if this is a simple "over the air programming" update to the phone's software. Did the give any specific date? Goodnight.

Thanks for your input. Your recommendation of setting the phone's ringtone to "vibrate and ring" works for me too. However, this silence from both the vehicle and the phone is still a problem that should not happen. As far as transferring your phonebook is concerned, you should note that this is the work of Verizon, as they disabled some of the V710's bluetooth functions. To name a few others: the phone does not transmit battery or signal strength to the vehicle either. With regard to the car not ringing, I believe this to be a problem with Lexus and not our phones. As it does note in the navigation system owners manual that the car is supposed to make a sound. I have e-mailed Motorola, but have not heard back from them, when I do I'll be more than happy to post such. If anyone hears back from a lexus dealership that would be great too. If anyone else has these problems, please share. Thank you.

LX470 OWNERS: As an owner of a 2004 Lexus LX470 and a recently purchase Motorola V710 I have finally had a chance to see how the two integrate with each other. Overall I am impressed, expect for one major issue... When receiving an incoming call there are no audible alerts whatsoever. A) On the vehicle, the telephone window pops up on the navigation screen, detailing caller information and allows the driver to accept or decline the call. There is however, NO audible alert or ring-tone produced by the vehicle. B) When locked into bluetooth mode, the V710 goes absolutely silent. NO keypad OR ring tones. This has been a problem particularly when standing outside of my vehicle (within bluetooth range - while the vehicle is turned on). When receiving a call, the phone does not ring and the call is missed as I am not made aware of the call. Is there anyway to override this "silence" while the phone is in bluetooth mode? AND has anyone else had this same experience with their Lexus or Acura bluetooth vehicle? ON PAGE 119 OF THE NAVIAGATION SYSTEM OWNERS MANUAL IT STATES THAT THE TELEPHONE WINDOW IS SUPPOSED TO POP UP, AS WELL AS AN AUDIABLE ALERT. IS THERE ANY WAY TO ADJUST THIS AUDIABLE ALERT? ON / OFF, VOLUME??? HAS ANYONE HEARD OF SUCH? THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP ON THIS MATTER.
