I haven't had any problems with it at all. I went through the compass reset (check your owners manual) and it's been good to go.

 

Thanks guys...Dmos, I don't know where to start, but if we were talking laboratory furniture and fume hoods, I'd probably sound the same.

My phone is one of the windows mobile PDA types, which seems to affect it more than my daughters basic phone.

I'll error on the side of caution and use the tray for sunglasses (assuming the windows are closed..you know who I am talking to..)

Again, thanks all for the feedback

 

 

No problem fella's. Happy to to be able to 'give back' some info. to you guys -cause I have'nt bought my JK yet but I've learned an awful lot about the JK and technical issues lifts, & mods etc. by reading the posts on this board in preparation to buy it.

MI Sahara: The reason your smart phone causes different behavior than your daughters simple phone is probably because smart phones use 2 data methods - a Cell freq. and a Data freq. so your phone creates more RF chatter than hers.

1). The simple phone conducts a periodic heartbeat with cell towers

2). Your smart phone conducts IP traffic like checking for email etc. on one freq while simultaneously doing the cell heartbeat on
another freq.

There are formal acronyms for all these freqs like EDGE Network but I don't keep 'em all in my head.

 

hey for those of you wanting someplace to put your phone securely in the jeep try the ek cell phone holder, I use it and have it mounted right on roll bar above right before the windshield
