LG Dare

 

I'm thinking about getting an LG Dare (Verizon). If anyone has this phone and also owns a 760/770/780, could you confirm the following:

1. If the bluetooth pairing works correctly

2. If you can transfer your contacts to the 7xx

Thanks.

I have an LG Dare (Verizon) with a Nuvi 880

I just bought an LG Dare a few weeks ago and paired it with a Nuvi 880
1. The bluetooth pairs fine, BUT the Dare does not support text messages on my 880. Others have confirmed LG phones don't show text messages on their bluetooth capable Nuvis http://www.poi-factory.com/node/17075
I can make and receive calls through the Nuvi however, I've been told the person on the other line can hear an echo of their own voice.

2. When I paired my phone to the 880, contacts from the phone synced to the unit so I can scroll through my contacts using the Garmin. Hope this helps.

I looked thru a bunch of

I looked thru a bunch of nuvi/bluetooth combos and on the web site only a few models (nokia comes to mind) support text. Talking to people on my 760 I can here them just fine and they tell me that I sound like I am in a generic speaker phone.. with a bit of an echo. They don't have any problems understanding me however.

It will work fine!

Everything will work fine on the 760/770/780 but text messaging.

The phone must support SMS/Text Messaging using Bluetooth to work with the NUVi.
