None of the Apps work

So...Me being a total geek got beyond excited about the BMW technology and all the possible integration's that I would have on my 650i Coupe. My phone of choice is the Motorola Droid Maxx because my battery will last up to 3 days, the screen is big enough for me to see and the interface is overly customization.

Here is my sad summery;

• BMW Remote - Does not do anything and I mean nothing - no door unlock, no remote lights and not remote horn.
• BMW Connected - Can't get it to connect so that means no calendar, no facebook, no news, no wiki, no pandora, no audible...no nothing. And this was a $250.00 option.
• Office - If I enable office to transfer the messages so I can read them on the display, Bluetooth cuts off.
• Cant play my voicemail messages when bluetooth is connected and that includes the ones from my work that come via email and my native VZW messages.

Please someone tell me that it is not just me...And please do not tell me the cure is getting an apple product as that is not in the cards.

Wouldn't it feel better if it were indeed just you? Then you'd know it could all probably be fixed.

My remote works, but I have been experiencing the bolded problems. I also get no cd art display on my iDrive when streaming or connected via USB aux.

Its BS.

From what I understand, more things work with a blackberry. Some things work with an iPhone, and some things work with android, although with android it can get very model specific. Nothing works flawlessly.

While it won't help the OP, the Siri integration on the 14's really makes an iPhone much more useful.
