So just got my G30 and for the life of me can't get my Galaxy S7 to give me SMS, emails, or anything else than phone calls really.

I don't even see the option anywhere in iDrive, like the phone isn't even connected. Yet I can make and receive calls fine, and my phone seems properly connected.

Emails never worked in my previous F30, but text messages did work fine. I can't fathom this is impossible to do in ANY car in 2017, let alone a 5-series... but cell phone compatibility isn't BMW's finest work...

Thanks!
I have a Galaxy S7 and it works fine with it, however I have enhanced Bluetooth, the reason I spec'd it with enhanced Bluetooth is that I read somewhere that SMS does not work without having Enhanced Bluetooth.
