I don't really know what is causing it to interfere with the radio for incoming calls but it does. Now I'm wondering if that's the same with Tomtom and Garmin, may be it works sometimes and other times it doesn't.

Anyone notice this. I seem to be calling my own cell phone a lot to test it out. Most of the time I wouldnt even know since I'm not the one calling. What makes it worse is that I don't get any miss call notifications or voicemail notifications (not like the people calling me ever leave messages)...
I used to have this problem with Radio 335 and Ghettofreeryders V700 ROM. I have since moved to the stock alltell radio V337 and Mustan-tech's ROM and everything seems to work fine. I can make calls, receive calls, surf the web while navigating, and I even get Windows Live mail too... I even put the phone to sleep while navigating (via power button) for a good couple of minutes and then woke it up and Garmin said the GPS was off. A few seconds later, all the sats relocked on and the map updated to the new location.

I thought I replied to some of your posts in other threads regarding this problem and I thought you figured it out that it was Ghetto's ROM. Anyway, I'm using Garmin V4.20.20 set to COM4. I'm pretty much happy with it except the intermediate driver time reset problem.
