Bluetooth 1. Is it safe to use Bluetooth devices, I have heard they can allow unauthorized connections? For Bluetooth security reasons, once you have set up your Bluetooth devices we recommend turning OFF the visibility option in the Bluetooth Menu of your phone so that other Bluetooth users cannot see the your phone. (This only applies to a few mainly older Bluetooth enabled phones as most new phones have better security.) 2.
6. Can other electrical devices cause interference with Bluetooth? Bluetooth technology employs a technique called frequency hopping to constantly change the frequency at which it sends data, reducing interference with wireless devices like wireless LAN’s, cordless landline phones. Noise Interference can occur if the Bluetooth device is used in close proximity with microwave.

In your phone, set up a Profile with lower ringing volumes and keypad tones and activate when using with X3 micro. (See your phones user manual for instructions on setting up profiles). Also, you may have low antenna strength from your phone network which may cause signal drop outs or disruption. 6.
