BH-208 Headset Problem

I have a BH-208 Bluetooth Headset paired with a 6310i.
Everything worked fine until some days ago when I saw the green led blinking fast.
From then on, when I switch on the headset, the green lighy led begin to blink fast (it normally blinks slowly) and the headset doesn't work at all.
A reset of the BH-208 was not successful.
The documentation I found so far doesn't report this kind of behaviour.
Can anybody help me solving the problem ?.
Thanks in advance.

Hi there
Anyone able to help with my BH-602 headset (less than one week old). I'm able to hear and talk on a call using the headset for about three to five minutes when the sound will suddenly stop (without touching any keys)
To continue the call I have to transfer the call to the handset using the mobile keypad and then back to the headset, which will then work for about another five minutes before the problem repeats.
I'm pretty sure my mobile is compatible with all standards, pushing twice allows a voice dialing, volume switch works etc.
I'm using a Nokia 5500 Sport with firmware updated to v4.6
The problem is obviously really annoying while talking on the phone. Had a look through the mobile options but can't see any option that could eliminate the problem.
Does this problem occur at all the places when you use the phone ?

Hi Bungaroosh,
You have presented with certainly an unique situation. I suspect that first of all, the reason the website you rely on opens on your friend's Samsung is that a lot of websites out there have updated their support for more current web development standards....which for some older browsers accessing their websites can cause compatibility/rendering issues. I suspect that the company will want to cater for as many of their customers, and the number of users using severly outdated browsers numbers in the minority.
Firmware updates for the older DCT-4 phones such as your 6230i were only able to be performed via Nokia Care points. I enquried about updating my 7710 a while or so ago, and got the rather flat answer that my device was so old that they no longer had the equipment to update it. I suspect it would be the same in your case.
Not too sure that the HS-10 headset would be compatible with any of the newer Nokia's. There are a number of cheap Nokia newer headsets out there that would work with many of today's newer phones.
I understand your need for a phone that just does phone calls and texts, and the occasional train line check. I would recommend a phone such as the Nokia 110, but since it is using WAP 1.1, am unsure as to how much support it would have with today's websites. A safer bet is to use an Asha phone such as the 202, 203, 300, that has support for the newer websites. These you can get on the cheap these days anyway. And they will all pretty much play MP3's.
The 6230i is a seven year old phone, be proud that you extracted that much usage out of it . There are many newer options out there these days, and maybe there's a bit of a learning curve, but keep your mind open....you could be very pleasantly surprised by the features you gain and enjoy!
Hope this helps.

HS-500 Bluetooth Headset problem

Bought an HS-500 about a month ago. During a call the headset stops working, the light turns blue and red, and after 5 or 10 seconds, it will reconnect. By then, the caller usually figures it's a dropped call and hangs up.
Has anyone else had this problem? Before you suggest it, I already deleted the device, turned my phone off, and turned it back on, paired it again, only to have it happen again.
Problem is the headset was a gift, from an ex, no receipt but I have the original box. Would BB consider replacing it? Also the phone I'm using is a Samsung Caliber, but that shouldn't matter since Bluetooth devices are universal, and my last wireless headset worked great until I lost it (different brand, not BB)
Thanks to all for your suggestions.
Mad respect,
James R.

I have not seen that happen on my HS-500 in the past. Usually the blue red flashing means pairing mode.
Do you know where it was bought? That is the first place to contact for warranty support.

Leopard and Plantronics Voyager 510 headset problem.

I try to post here a message that i've posted in another section of the support board, maybe this is more appropriate with the problem.
I have a plantronics voyager 510 bluetooth headset that i've alway used fine with Tiger. Since it's a multipoint headset, i use it with the mac and the nokia cellphone at the same time. When it was paired with tiger, after powering on the headset, the bluetooth connection was established only in case of need (for example when i received a call with skype). Then, at the end of the call, the bluetooth connection between headset and tiger stopped, so that in case of need i was able use it with the cellphone.
The problem i have with Leopard is that when i switch on the headset, osx start a connection with it immediately, also if it doesn't use it, so that the headset it's always connected and busy for nothing!
This is causing some trouble to me now. Is there any setting i'm missing? Note that in the audio preferences, i told to osx to NOT use the headset at all, which is just configured under the skype audio tab.
Thanks for your time.

having similar problems w/ 2 different devices since leopard install. both worked fine w/ tiger

Is this a known issue ?
Or is there someone who can help me ?

Beginners headset problem

I appreciate this is not a new subject but perhaps someone out there has a new idea.
I have an Apple eMac with version 10.3.9 installed. I have just bought a Logitech Pro headset and a Vivanco Bluetooth USB dongle (it says it supports Mac OS X) - but I cannot get it all to work.
With the Bluetooth USB I can pair with my iBook G4 with no problems but I cannot get it to pair with the headset. I have run the Bluetooth update 1.5 and also the Firmware Updater 1.2 (the later version of updater says it needs 10.4.6 installed). When I run the installer I get the following message:
This Bluetooth device is not supported
This computer does not have an Apple Bluetooth Module installed. It cannot be updated by this application.
For some reason it did pair briefly with the headset this morning but will not connect and since then they refuse to talk to each other. I now notice that Apple are saying I need to have bought a D-Link Bluetooth module. Is this the only one that works and I have bought the wrong USB although my Vivanco module works with my laptop and the company states that it supports Mac? Any help really appreciated as I getting to the end of my nerves on this one!
Thanks
Adrian

The Bluetooth Firmware updater from Apple ONLY updates the built-in bluetooth unit. Since your computer did not come with built-in bluetooth, the firmware updater does not apply to you.
Secondly, you might have to purchase the D-Link bluetooth dongle instead for it to work with your iMac and headset.
HOWEVER, before going down that route, what I'd do is to go to the website of the company that makes your current Bluetooth dongle and see if they have any software updates for that dongle.

Maps on N8 headset problem

I have 3 Nokia headsets, BH 212, 217 and 609 none of which work with the Maps app on my N8 and directions are only heard through the handset. In all other ways they work fine. However they all work with my N97 mini. Both handsets have v3.06 Maps. I have rebooted my N8, also reinstalled the phone software with Ovi Suite and reset to factory settings none of which has made any difference. Any ideas anyone?

This query is better anwered when put up at Ovi services board, anyway I'll answer. For offline navigation in Ovi maps you need to download the map data of that particular place, you can use Ovi suite to download maps of various countries. The phone is looking for position because it hasn't got any information about that place.
If a reply has solved your problem click Accept as solution button, doing it will help others know the solution. Thanks.

IPhone - music skipping and pausing - headset problem?

I've noticed a problem when I've been out on a run with my iPhone. Late in the run the music will stop and start and skip around. I suspect the problem is in the Apple headset. I think sweat is getting into the mouthpiece/pause-advance gismo and sending false signals to the iPhone. I've also noticed (during runs) that the pause-advance feature is inconsistant; sometimes it advances, sometimes not.
I would like to upgrade the headset to the V-Moda Vibe headset as soon as those are available with the call receive/hangup function.
Has anyone else noticed these problems.

that's funny... that just occured to me last night... thought the phone was buggin out so i restored it... shoulda just did a search on the forums... now i have to reinstall all my 3rd party apps...
i was also at the gym sweatin to the oldies when this occurred... and i do believe it's the head set... i understand the pausing and playin, but sometimes the song will change back and forth and what not... very strange behavior....

HS-13 Wireless image headset problem

Hi. I have just purchased the HS-13 Wireless image headset which I have a problem with.
The item works perfectly well for a random period of time. This includes importing contacts, editing contacts, pairing and using the item with my nokia 6680 phone.
EVerything is perfect until it suddenly loses all the contacts and resets itself to factory defaults, including the time and date, for no apparent reason at all. when it does this its impossible to add any contacts again, either manually or using the transfer software, as when each one is added the item resets itself constantly in a loop.
It does this no matter if its paired to my phone or not - ie: as a standalone device. After another random period of time it is able to add contacts again as normal, and retains them, until it happens all over again. It does this even if the battery status is full. Once I found that resetting the item to factory defaults manually fixed it, but it doesnt do anything any more - probably this was co-incidence. So at the moment its not much use to me and I need to return it to my retailer but they have asked me to email support at see what you say about it. Except the support form doesnt work for me and returns a 404 when submitted. (gah!)
I'm pretty sure I'm not at fault in using the item as I'm a complete geek and extremely tech literate and it does seem to be the device having a problem. Can you possibly give me a reply on this as its quite annoying indeed! cheers - malc

yup I finally got it replaced - and like it a lot now. Yes, as you say, it is a bit flakey sometimes, I've had a few restarts as well - every time it happens I think its going to totally break like the first one. Sometimes it just hangs as well, but generally its solid enough. I'd rather have it than one of the earpiece thingies though. Mind you, people look at me strange when I'm using it in shops and stuff. boiboi - malc

Help me troubleshoot USB headset problems.

I have a USB headset with which I can listen fine. However, when I try to record, or use Skype the volume is very low, and apparently my voice is barely audible to others.

The problem is that alsa (assuming that's what you use) doesn't do any card switching automatically - it decides on boot which card will be default, and sticks with that choice, even if the card is not available later on.
If you're using KDE or gnome, you can select the card used in their respective control centers (whatever they're called) - but that only affects programs that are using sound systems from these DEs. Also you can select which card to use in some programs themselves (like skype).
But, if you want to let alsa know which card to use, I think the config file for that is ~/.asoundrc
There's a python script which makes the management a bit easier (since the syntax is not very friendly) - asoundconf. Here's a thread where someone had a similar problem, and also there's a link where you can get the script: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=39230
EDIT: by the way, I have a similar setup as you, and I didn't do any modprobe.conf modifications - the correct modules were loaded automatically.

Lumia 625 windows bluetooth headset problems

Using a Plantronics voyager edge headset on a Lumia 625 with windows 8.1 often results in a audio stream that is interupted 3 or 4 times a second.
Already changed the phone, bought a higer bluetooth version headset (4.0 vs. 2.1 ) but still no solution.
Heard rumours that it is a known problem, and that a lumia 930 does not have this problem.
Plantronics and Nokia/Microsoft are apparently working on it, but no info on when it will be solved.
Anyone with the same experience, and anyone that knows a workaround?

the phone is updated up to the last release, so 8.1
Problem emerged as of starting to use the 625 with a plantronics Discovery 975.
Did all the things requested by nokia support, power cycle, factory reset, etc.
Phone was exchanged for a new one without result.
Bought the latest blutooth version headset from Plantonics, the voyager edge, problem happens slightly les frequent now but still remains.
Im running out of options.

Steelseries Diablo 3 Headset problem

I recently purchased a Steelseries Diablo 3 USB headset from Best Buy. I am very content with the purchase however I've been having a slight problem since day one. When I listen to any form of audio whether it be youtube videos or itunes music, I get a slight static or clicking sound randomly throughout the video or song. The sound is not loud, but is very annoying. It is harder to notice when on Skype or Vent but it is still there. What bothers me is that this only occurs on my computer (Dell XPS 9100) and not on any other computers or laptops in my house. I've tried all the suggestions about similar problems on other forums but nothing is fixing my problem. I'm not really experienced with technical problems like this so any suggestions could help.. Thanks.

Sadly, I do not have another usb headset, however headphones that plug into the headphone jack work perfectly. I'm beginning to think the problem has to do with the usb inputs in my computer because the headset works fine when plugged into the usb slot of any other computer in my house

Headset problem on Lenovo A536

introduce, We of the community Smartphone Lenovo A536 (https://www.facebook.com/groups/464647510343435/),
lately we get problems on our mobile phones, which is when we play music and wear a headset, the music is often stopped for no reason .... then we tried to play music again but it keeps going so we did not get to enjoy the music through the headset .. .
please if any of the developer to improve our smartphone Lenovo Lenovo A536 especially in Indonesia. or if it could provide a solution to our smartphones to function normally like smartphones in general.
request that the developer or service center Lenovo smartphones provide solutions on Lenovo A536 smartphone.

hi anyone found a solution for this yet? Cleaning the battery must be a joke, it can't be related to the issue in any way. I found out that using vlc player reduces the number of the headset disconnections, but it is far from perfect

Fatality USB gaming headset problem

My headset is connected via the usb cord to the computer. It has worked perfect until now. Whenever I start a program or check the volume settings for the microphone it simply turns off. The LED light on the controller turns off as well. For example, if I go into sound settings in vista and click on the "recording tab" the led light turns off. The led light is on whenever I do other things and I can hear sounds all the time. If I go into skype and connect a call the led light also turns off and people can't hear me. What can I do about this?
Please help me out guys
//Fredrik

Short answer seems to be that you are pretty much S.O.L.
I purchased the same headset, non-USB version, about 15 months ago. Having my own microphone issue but customer service cites a 12 month warranty and won't help.
