I have to packtalk 5.7 firmware and have no problems . Are you using one by channel for phone and other for satnav. I think the bold has more issues than original.

How are you setting up 2 channels?

I've not looked at the settings for a while, where are you finding A & B, in the ZUMO settings or the Cardo app?

I'll take another look then, I believe I have them paired correctly but I'll have a look to confirm.

Hi - I know that this is an old post but did anyone manage to fix this issue where the GPS instructions mute the intercom? I was hoping my move from the 590 to an XT would solve the problem but it didn't.

Hi...
Coming from Autocom Pro7Sport wired to bluetooth module BTM-02. The phone calls are the worst, but driver and passenger can ear all the sound from the Garmin Zumo XT (MP3, directions, etc)

I'm reforming the autocom!

New Cardo Freecom 4x and I'm having the same problem reported on this forum. Intercom driver/passenger cut off on Zumo directions.

Sharing MP3 from driver to passenger not possible on the same time of talking (sharing or talking)!!!!

I have trying another abordation:
Drivers cardo to Zumo XT
Passenger cardo to Zumo XT
Intercom driver/passenger on

-Driver can ear all sound from Zumo.
-Passenger only ear the multimédia sound( MP3 or the music coming from driver phone to zumo). This is a limitation on the zumo because only can connect one bluetooth for all type off sound and another only for multimédia.

With this connection the driver/passenger talk it's interrupt always on incoming directions from zumo. The music on passenger cardo caming from zumo start to shuttering.

For now im returning the Cardo Freecom 4x...my question is, the new 3 models from Midland can resolve the problem??

-Midland BT RUSH (Mesh) - lanced in 2021 and discontinued in 2022!?
-Midland RUSH RCF(Mesh) - lanced 2022 not avaliable stock
-Midland BTR1 ADVANCED (BT) lanced 2022 not avaliable stock.

I use a Cardo PackTalk Bold. I have the Cardo connected via bluetooth to my iPhone for music and phone calls…and the Cardo connected to my 396 via bluetooth for directions..I use the Cardo Mesh for communication with other riders.
