Abstract
A Bluetooth transceiver module is configured to pair with a mobile electronic device that is configured to communicate with a cellular network. A hands-free module is configured to, while the mobile electronic device is paired, selectively generate attention commands for transmission to the mobile electronic device, the attention commands including: standard attention commands that are defined by a Bluetooth Hands-Free Profile (HFP) specification; and non-standard attention commands that are not defined by the Bluetooth HFP specification. The Bluetooth transceiver module is further configured to: transmit the attention commands to the mobile electronic device; from the mobile electronic device, receive: first responses to standard attention commands, respectively; and second responses to non-standard attention commands; and, in response to receipt of one of the second responses to a non-standard attention command that is not defined by the Bluetooth HFP specification, pass the one of the second responses to the hands-free module.
