Default Bluetooth feedback???

Has anyone experienced issues with they're bluetooth connection?? On a couple recent phone calls the people on the other end have complained of a "feedback" noise and they say its freekin' annoying as hell!! I cant hear it on my end at all but im wondering if theres anything i can do about it or if its my cell phone. Lemme know. Thanks!

Interesting.... I'd just mentioned something to my wife about it last weekend. She drives the GS and recently when she's called me from it using the BT, there's been this annoying beep every 10 seconds or so. Doesn't happen every call or throughout a call but it's more intermittent - happens for 2 minutes, then not, then back again.

Her phone is the LG-VX8300


Anyone else? Wonder if it's LG?

I'd say bring to your dealership and have take a look at it. Could be a bad microphone or they may have to adjust one of the settings.

I have the same phone and initially experienced intermittent beeps. Couldn't figure out why has it didn't occur every call. Concluded that the phone was hitting against the seatbelt buckle which were pushing one of the front buttons on the phone. (I keep the phone on a belt clip on my right side)

I have a crackberry Curve and never a problem. Sometimes they say turn down my air, b/c the vents blow right onto the mic in the center of the ceiling buttons. That is all though. Nothing really.

To everyone that responded to the question at hand........i started thinking about when this weird feedback or beeping was happening and i thought of a possibility. Sometimes I put my key fob in the forward cup holder and my cell in the aft cup holder! I was thinking that maybe the key fob is doin' something fishy to my cell phone during use!! that fob controls so much crap, it wont surprise me if it puts off some crazy frequency when its just sitting there. ill make a few calls tomorrow during my ride and ill update. peace.........
