M340 Text and Email on Android (galaxy S10)

Hey everyone, have had my 340 since March and love it so far, just have some issues with the infotainment system. Since I picked it up I cannot get texts or emails to come thru like they did on my 235 and my previous 440. I tried everything then one day the head unit failed, so a new one was put in. Set everything up from a totally new system and still, no text or email. When pairing the phone with bluetooth it does prompt to allow texts and all that and I allow it. Anyone else having this issue? Speech to text and email was one of my most commonly used features in my last 2 cars.

Side notes, anyone else got a bad rattle / sound from the middle speaker? Or anyone unable to use the 12V outlet in the front?

BMW lied about this feature on their website. It's (for some reason) packaged with the wireless charging. It's a class action suit waiting to happened.

i also can't get SMS text messages and my 12V does not work for charging my phone. regarding the front speaker rattle, this can be fixed yourself or fixed by the dealership. see quote below:

1. Pop off the speaker cover (start by lifting at the corner, it will pop off fairly easy.
2. Place felt or cloth tape on the uppermost tab of the plastic cover (the tab that is closest to the windscreen)
3. Put the speaker cover back on, and you are good to go.

On my old 2014 F30, I could get BOTH text & EMail from Android phone, but had to use Dragon Nuance to dictate responses.

On my new M340, though I can get text messages from my Android phone and reply to them, can NOT get EMail
