Default New Android Smartphone and Garmin 665

I upgraded my phone to the new Verizon Droid Razor. This new phone doesn't have the discover me or find me option for the bluetooth settings. The new option just pairs the two. The problem is now I can hear phone calls, but can't speak. Whomever I call can't hear me speak. Any ideas of what could be wrong? BTW...I'm using the Harley connector and headset.

If you want to be able to talk through your headphones, you will have to connect your Garmin to the aux port on your radio. The Garmin should have came with a Y splitter that will allow you to do this. This will also allow you to listen to tunes or books from your Garmin through the aux port. To use your headphones in this manner you have to be in aux mode on the radio. You will be able to see and hear calls in all modes, ie. radio, XM, CD, etc, but you will not be able to talk except in aux.

The Garmin accepts SD cards for music, etc., and you can also down load directly to the Garmin's memory.

Just for info though, I have mine where I can answer the phone, but because of wind, etc. you can barely be heard. In my experience you can communicate just enough to let the other person know you got the call and will call them back.

I added the headset to my helmet. it is blue tooth to my Garmin and phone. I can talk at 70 mph. I hear the music in my helmet or on the bikes speakers. plus I can talk to my wife on her bike.
