I have my Arduino Nano connected to the HC-06 module (with the RX/TX pins).

My issue is that when I try to upload new code to my Arduino (via the Arduino IDE, through the USB connection) the Arduino IDE doesn't succeed.

I get this error:

avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x00

I believe that it is just trying to upload the code to the HC-06 (instead of the Arduino). Is there a way to overcome this issue?.

Thanks.

Note: I found this entry https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27175937/arduino-program-upload-while-btooth-module-connected-avrdude-stk500-getsync indicating that it wasn't possible (that I need to unplug the module). I am trying to confirm it.
