LS 460 L using Bluetooth question

Hello guys ive noticed something while using the handsfree now lets say my bluetooth is connected to the car and someone calls and i have friends with me in the car so i decide to make that conversation private by turning off the bluetooth from My phone now im using the phone again either with my hands or headphones. Conversation is now over and i want the bluetooth to be set again to handsfree so i turn on my bluetooth but didnt work , i tuned off my phone and back on but it didnt work. I stopped the car and doing the following in my touch screen :
Info-> Bluetooth -> Settings -> Bluetooth -> Register - > and using my phone and searching for the cars bluetooth i manged to connect again.

Is there any hack to connect to the car bluetooth while im driving and having no problems at all turning the phone's bluetooth ON/OFF without stopping the car ?

I use the 'transfer call' button on the nav screen. That is what it is designed for. Alternately, a couple of times my phone has lost pairing while driving. I have only needed to switch the BT off and then right back on again at the phone, and I have reconnected every time without even stopping. I hope that helps.

My Call Transfer button is greyed out while I am moving. Is that normal? Is it a setting that my dealer can change?

When i tried pushing the "Transfer" button the car was at rest and it was not greyed out. Yesterday i was driving my car and had the same issue the button was greyed out, check your phone you will see a button named handset when you push it it will disconnect from the handsfree. To set it back to handsfree is to look at the same place where you hit the handset button you will see bluetooth push it or if you end the call in handset mode the next call automatically will be set to handsfree, tried it yesterday hope this helps

*My phone is N95

This is a pic from the internet Both buttons will replace "Music Player"
-Handset
-Bluetooth

depending on your choice.

I'll post a snap from my phone later. with both options

If the car is at rest you may use the transfer button if your moving the only way to get around it is using the phone.

I hope it makes sense to you now bro ..
