Thanks fenj66 - my X5 was Jan 06 build - can only presume its a different ULF module - unless I've set the fone up incorrectly

First SE k800i I've heard of that doesn't show SMS messages - sorry to hear you went through all that effort not to get this. :thumbsdown:

Take it no messages on the phone and you've deleted ALL paired devices first before adding this new phone? Clutching though...

Yup - also tried a mate's K800i - same result - I have discovered the ULF I have supports ASSIST (although no active subscription) - there is some chatter on forums that ASSIST-enabled ULFs won't port messages and don't support VR either - could I swap the module for one that does and which one would I look for ?
