Is there any way to have Sync alert you to an incoming call on the phone that is not designated the preferred/primary? (Both phones are set up in Sync.)

Highly unlikely as Bluetooth, in most cases, only supports one connection

with syncs use of an 8088 CPU, a very old cpu, I doubt it could do any more than what it can do now

Sync only connects to one phone at a time. When it powers up it looks for the phone designated as the primary, if it doesn't find it will look for a secondary phone. Sync does not connect to two phones at the same time.

Experimented and found a workaround of sorts! When your second phone rings, press phones, change phones, and select your 2nd phone. Sync then picks up the ringing 2nd phone's incoming call.

I believe you can also do this after answering the call from the 2nd phone.
