Multiple phone bluetooth question

[goldmine848]

I have two phones paired. I have one that I prefer to have active. I will leave out what it took to get here, but I managed to have the preferred phone to have priority. But if the number one priority phone happens to have the bluetooth turned off when I start the car the other phone connects. Even if I turn on the priority one phone it does not connect and from that point forward the other phone has priority unless I turn it off and allow the preferred phone to connect.

Long way of getting to this question: is there no way maintain the number one priority?

It will connect and stay connected to a phone. Sounds like its working as it should...

But the issue for me is that it will not maintain the desired priority. The manual says to use the "replace phone" command to change priority but when I use that command it does not, as the manual suggests, indicate the priority of the connected phone.

Turn off the prioity 2 phone before turning on the priority one phone. On my Blackberry setup menu there is a auto connect parameter that needs a yes to automatically connect when I start my car

That definitely works. I was just searching for a way to make sure that priority one phone always connects when I start the car with both phones on.

I don't have my phone auto connect either. Granted, it annoys the hell out of you about reconnecting if you try and use it but it does the job.

Hmm... Sometimes even our most modern technological conveniences just aren't quite functional enough for us, eh?
