Secondary Phone
A cell phone can be enabled as a Secondary
Phone by touching the information icon to
the right of the paired cell phone name to
open the phone settings menu. If a cell
phone is enabled as a Secondary Phone, it
can connect simultaneously alongside
another Bluetooth mobile device. In doing
so, the Secondary Phone will be labeled as
Incoming Calls. This means the mobile
device can only receive calls. The Address
Book of a Secondary Phone will not be
available and hands-free outgoing calls
cannot be placed using this cell phone.
If needed, touch the Secondary Phone while
in the Phones list to swap it into the
Outgoing and Incoming role. This role makes
it possible to place outgoing calls from the
Contacts and Recents list.
