SMH10 Intercom and SmartPhone GPS navigation
I have a feeling this has already been asked, but I'll ask again anyway:
While riding my motorcycle, I want to use the Copilot navigation app on my Android phone for turn-by-turn navigation, and use intercom function to talk/listen to another SMH10 (my passenger). I can successfully pair my SMH10 with the smartphone (Galaxy S4 Mini), and with the other SMH10. The smartphone pairs as a phone, and the intercom pairs as an intercom.
However, I cannot use the intercom and receive the navigation prompts at the same time. I have to tap the jog dial to switch between the intercom and the phone, and back again.
I assume the phone is sending the navigation prompts using the A2DP profile ("media"), and I don't see any way to change it. I think I understand the lower- and higher-priority profiles, but it seems like at least one mode should work -- I should be able to be on the intercom and have the phone interrupt it with navigation prompts, or be listening to the navigation prompts and have the intercom VOX interrupt when I or my passenger speaks.
If the problem is the fixed priority order, I've seen a couple of feature requests asking for configurable priority order, and I think this would be a very good idea.
Otherwise, these are nice units -- the VOX and the sidetone work well.

I just have bought a sena SRL with my shoei Neotec II and i can say that i clearly regret my purchase.
In our country we have a lot of speed camera and i used to be warned by an app on my android which can be put in first priority on my old cardo...
i don't care to listen to my wife while i'm loosing my licence...
As i can read there it's impossible on a sena? is it ?

I read about your problems and I have a totally 180 degree situation. I have 10r and SMH5 and when I talk to my wife or friend (also SMH5) and use Google maps the navigation prompts don't interrupt our talks. But when I use SYGIC navigation it interrupts our talks all the time. And I'm looking for a solution to make Sygic not interrupt our conversations and keep quiet as long as I talk to someone over the intercom.

Very interesting! I installed the SYGIC app on my Samsung Android smartphone and IT DOES break into an intercom conversation. I guess that is telling me that my issue is Google Nav! It obviously is not using the same protocol as many GPS systems. (if I pair my Sena 10S with my Garmin Zumo, it will also interrupt intercom conversations). I agree that it can be rather annoying at times when a nav system constantly interrupts a conversation. And it's really annoying when the Sena frequently won't reconnect to your partner and needs to be re-started! I still favor Google Maps since I can map a route on my PC, then send it to my phone. I just need to mount my phone on my Versys so that the screen is visible and it will show the upcoming turns.

Hi Ckelly 1100, I have just the same problem with my new 10r. I have tried everything on my 10r and samsung A5, but it doesnt work. From the manual: The GPS voice instrucion interrupts intercom conversation but it is automatically reestablished after the GPS voice instruction ends. Is 10r able to do this? Can anybody help us?
