Dropped Bluetooth connections 2005 Acura TL 2007 Infiniti FX35

We have 2 DroidX phones.  They both paired fine to the 2 vehicles listed above.  The BT connection is dropped instantly on incoming calls while the actual call stays active.  This necessitates using "hands" for a handsfree system to either put the phone to your ear (illegal here in WA state while driving) or the added distraction of trying to find the speakerphone button while driving.  The Acura is listed as compatible:

The Infiniti is not listed specifically.  I will say that we have had no previous bluetooth issues using our previous phones:  Blackberry Bold 9650, Blackberry Tour 9630 and Motorola z6TVs.  All 3 functioned flawlessly with the same 2 vehicles.

 

Please advise next step.   Thank you.

I believe that I found the answer to this while digging around the Acura bluetooth site.  DX was set to Auto Answer when using a handsfree device under Call Settings.  This should be off.   The phone was answering before the BT connection could be made.

I tried this option and my Blackberry Bold continues to drop incoming calls in my 2005 Acura TL.  If I remove the phone battery, it works for a couple calls but eventually reverts back to dropping incoming calls.  My Blackberry Curve never had this problem.  I think there is a compatibility issues with this phone and some Acuras judging by some of the postings on www.acurazine.com
