Asha 301 phone - headset wont work

Ok. So I purschased this Nokia 301 here the other day. Today it arrived at my local post office, and i picked it up. When I wrapped it up and charged it up, i discovered the headphones in the box wont work - my phone wont detect them. It seems like they arent there. And the phone was new when I tried the headset, so dirt and dust havent found its way into my phone.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
 I had the same problem. I figured a way to make it work.
 Your phone have to be on the Music Player mode. If you put it on the homepage, the headset control doesn't work. You can still lock you phone though.
 The go to setting>phone>accessories>Headset, set default profile to "General" or the profile you are using. Turn on automatic answer. Then set headset as default in accessory settings.
 Hope this will help you.

    Headsets don't come with the iPad. All you get is the iPad, USB cable and wall charger.

    1161 is the code i get. i cant restore my i phone it wont work i dont know whats going on

    Are you sure it is not error 1611?
    Error 1611
    This error typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, this error may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Try a different USB cable also.

  • Ive reseat my phone it wont work now

    hiya,
    i reset my iphone contract and setting and know it wont work.

    You restored your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup which remains activated with your carrier, or this is a no longer activated iPhone with your carrier without a SIM card?

  • Centro wired headsets wont work i have read the other posts on this

    I've been reading posts on this topic.  will try to find some wd40 or a paperclip when I get out of this airport!
    but I dont know if this is my problem.  because when my headset is plugged in  you hear no sound coming from the
    "earpiece" but the minute I unplug the headset you can hear fine with the phone.
    if it was the "switch" and wd 40 would work, wouldnt I hear the call thru the phone if the headset was not registering?
    it almost seems like it thinks bluetooth is on. I had to stop using bluetooth it kept resetting itself and not connecting.
    so it is now t urned OFF.   I have bought millions of headsets.  I can call palm but have not had time and dont trust them.
    thanks so much! 
    Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

    As with most problems that occur on a Palm PDA, it is either software or hardware related and we have to determine which one.
    Best method is to first make a complete backup of your unit to your SD card using the free "NVBackup" (available from http://www.freewarepalm.com) After the backup is complete, Hard Reset the unit, then test to see if full functionality returns.
    How to Hard Reset a Palm Centro.
    Go to http://kb.palm.com and enter the number 45050 into the "Solution ID" box.
    DO NOT HOTSYNC YET! Test the unit before reinstalling any software. If the unit works correctly, your problem is being caused by a "drug interaction" of software - maybe one rogue program, or a combination of several. You'll have to reinstall the third-party programs one or a few at a time to find the problem one. To avoid re-installing a software issue, rename your /Backup directory in your Palm folder (on a PC it's found here: C/Program Files/Palm(One)/"your HotSync ID name truncated"/Backup) to something like "/BackupOLD". Now perform the HotSync, choose your HotSync name you've been using, and all your PIM data will return, but not the third-party programs. Test for functionality again. If all is good, start installing the old programs from your /BackupOLD directory one (or a few if brave) at a time.
    If the unit does not work after a Hard Reset is performed correctly, then it may be Hardware-related. (If it's a connection problem via either BlueTooth or Wifi, be sure nothing has changed on the unit you're trying to connect to!)
    Hope this has helped,

Can you please help me get my mic to work thanks.
    BTW the headset i am using is the Plantronic Audio 350

    Have you checked the silent switch on the side of the iphone?
    Have you tried turning the volume up?
    Have you tried restart?
    Have you tried reset?
    Have you tried restore?
    Have you tried restore as new?
    If all of these fail, then make an apointment at the genius bar.  If your iphone is defective and is within the warranty period, then they will replace.

  • I Phone 3GS wont work :/ help please :)

    Hi, my I phone 3gs showed that i need to download the latest software update, so i tried to download it, my phone crashed, so tried to restart, and now its just switching on showing the apple logo and switching off and then repeating the process, what can i do ?.. please help..

    Your phone has entered recovery mode.  You will need to connect it to a computer with iTunes and restore it to factory settings.  Hopefully you have a backup (either iTunes or iCloud) to restore from.

  • How can i restore my iphone which was erased by iCloud?? I got my phone back but it wont work when i connect to iTunes.

    How can i restore my iphone which was erased by iCloud?? I got my phone back but it wont work when i connect to iTunes.

    The following assumes you've been backing up to icloud all along.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your device.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your device was new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.
    Let us know if this method does not work.

  • I had a iphone 3gs on contract then upgraded to 4s then i allowed the sync between the 2 phones then deleted contacts off both phones tried a backup from iclud and now the phones are exactly the same and my main 4s wont work

    i had a iphone 3gs on contract which ended so i upgraded to 4s. had the 3gs cleaned as a second phone for my partner. i then allowed the sync between the 2 so whatever was on mine would be on the other and vise versa. this meant the contacts was aswell so i deleted them not knowing they would be removed from both, i then tried a backup to icloud to restore the lost canotacts instead it seemed to clone my new 4s from my old 3gs and now the features on the 4s wont work. music and tunes have been lost along with all my messages
    please help me

    Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
    Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

  • I just bought an android phone and the previous owner of the number had an iphone and imessage wont work, how do I fix that?

    I just bought an android phone and the previous owner of the number had an iphone and imessage wont work, how do I fix that?
    I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S4, and my wife has an iphone. We found out that imessage wont come through from her. After we went to the AT&T helpdesk they said that she could turn off imessage on her phone and that I would get texts on my S4. But then so would everyone else who has an iphone. That  won't work for everyone in my company that has an iphone. So what I am wondering is- since I recently got this phone, should I get a new number? Or should I contact ATT or contact Apple to try and get this number de-activated? I'm thinking I'll never get into the icloud account that this number is attached to, but maybe someone has some advice on that?
    I just sincerely want imessage to work on this phone and I'm willing to take the steps to do that.
    Please help

    Either one of the two should work - getting new number from carrier or contacting Apple to revoke phone number from imessage system.
    That is if your problem is described correctly.

    If the center portion of the monitor is flickering then your GPU on the logic is bad or (unlikely given this symptom) that your monitor cable is pinched/damaged.
    **Imediately backup ALL your important data while you can still see things on the monitor
    Contact Apple for appt. for in shop diagnostics for full examination and for parts replacement
    nobody can give you a cost on a repair that isnt fully diagnosed online and cannot be.
    perform SMC reset just to check:
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
