FAQ
Questions about transferring data
What is the difference between text messages
being transferred via the SIM Access Profile
(SAP) and the transfer of e-mails and text
messages via the Message Access Profile
(MAP)?
There are fundamental differences between
these two approaches. The ability to transfer
text messages via the SIM Access Profile (SAP)
concerns text messages that are stored on the
mobile phone's SIM card. These messages can
not only be received and read but also replied to
and deleted. It is also possible to compose a
new message.
However, there is no access to the messages
stored in the memory of the mobile phone
itself. As modern mobile phones usually
store messages in their device memory, the
availability of SIM messages that can be
downloaded is considerably limited where
this is the case.
There is a detailed functional overview of mobile phone models that have been compatibility-tested by Porsche, starting on page 47. An explanation of the terms used here can be found in the glossary starting on page 42.

The Message Access Profile (MAP) is designed
to reflect these recent developments by
enabling messages to be transferred from the
phone itself. Unlike the SIM Access Profile
(SAP), the Message Access Profile (MAP)
supports both text messages and e-mails. At
present, however, PCM offers only read-only
access.
It is not possible to answer or delete messages
here. Please note: for technical reasons,
the SIM Access Profile (SAP) and Message
Access Profile (MAP) cannot currently be
used simultaneously. The user must actively
decide on the profile to be used.
What is the maximum number of text messages
and e-mails that can be transferred from my
phone to PCM?
A maximum of 50 text messages and
100 e-mails can be downloaded by PCM.
◀
Why are no e-mails being downloaded from
my smartphone?
There are devices that support the Message
Access Profile (MAP) in principle but, in fact,
they support only the SMS or SMS/MMS side
of it. In this case, no e-mails are transferred to
PCM and the corresponding list remains blank.
Why don't I see e-mails and/or text messages
from my BlackBerry®?
Corporate-owned devices often have data
encryption enabled in the interests of security.
If you connect a device with protection like this
to PCM and it also happens to be in a locked
state, no messages will be sent by Bluetooth®
to PCM as this would contradict the security
philosophy of the BlackBerry®. In this case, the
BlackBerry® needs to be unlocked first and
the message download restarted. Depending
on the software version of the BlackBerry®,
CONTENTS
it may be necessary to disestablish the
Bluetooth® connection completely before the
new download is attempted. This can be carried
out by pressing and holding the volume control
(device switches off) and then pressing the
volume control again (device comes back on).
