The phone doesn't ring in the headset. The only way I know a call is coming in is the music stops, and I look down at the screen and see an incoming call.

I can't figure out how to re-play a text message in CarPlay, when I don't understand the translation.

Any ideas?

Anyone?

Beuller? LOL!

Scratch the ringer question, I got it. You need to go into the bluetooth menu on the Boom, turn on bluetooth, then select one of 4 ringtones.

Still need to figure out how to re-play a text message.

Hello, just got the WHIM installed on my 2017 Ultra Ltd. I have paired the Rider and Passenger headset, Everything seems to be working fine as long as I am standing still. When riding the music starts fading away, comes back and fades away again. Terrible to hear. Does somebody have an idea what is wrong.
It gets a little bit better when I hide the Microfon in my jacket. It makes no difference if the music comes from the radio or my phone.

Are you listening to the sound through the Headsets or speakers?

Are you listening to sound from your phone that is connected via bluetooth?

And Sory, do not know what a Microfon is... Phone???

Sounds like a reception problem.

The dealer did the installation and flashed the Boom. I am listening through the headset (Boom Audio 20S EVO) and the sound comes from my iPhone connected via Bluetooth, but same result with sound from the radio.
Microfon should be Microphone (Static Boom Microphone).
I did not had any problem when using wired headsets before.

Setting you likely have the Vox set to low it is interrupting the music. You have a wide range of option for the music playing or being interrupted when another device comes on.
