Custom POI's and Bluetooth Connection

I have uploaded a considerable number of custom POI's to my Garmin nuvi 780, and I can get to them all via the Extras icon. Most of these POI files are in gpx format, with the remainder in csv format.

But then when I pair my GPS to my new Motorola Razr V3 cell phone via bluetooth, I have serious problems with my custom POI's. When I get to the Extras icon by means of the Phone icon on the menu screen of my GPS, I see all the same POI's as before, but now when I try to activate one of the POI's (e.g., Wal-Mart), I get the error message that "NO MATCHES FOUND".

I thought that any POI file in the gpx format would be recognized when I had a bluetooth connection, but I guess I was wrong.

I would appreciate any advice/recommendation on what might be causing this problem.

Thanks in advance........
