Bose Bluetooth 2 Headset

I recently purchased the Bose 2 Bluetooth Headset.   This device is totally outstanding from the point of using it in a noisy area such as a supermarket or department store.   My wife asked if I was in the car using my on-star in car phone.   When I told her I was in a department store, she was totally blown away.  She stated she could not hear hardly any background noise and I heard her so clear.   During calls with my old bluetooth devices, she would just say, I can't hear you too good, so I am hanging up.    The only downside to the headset is to make sure you put the headset on first, then turn it on.    I was turning it on first to ensure it was on, and then upon putting it in my ear, I would hit the call button.    I learned that once you put it in your ear, you will get a tone when you turn it on alerting you that you are ready for calls..     You hardly know you have it in your ear if you are using the correct earpiece.  The first few days with the medium earpiece was hurting my ear and I went down to the small earpiece and now it is great in the ear.   I only wish they would lower the price, but otherwise I would recommend this to anyone.

This is just like eating painkillers.
This has to be repeated every time the headset re-connects. so it's not a loongterm solution.

  • Looking for a Bluetooth headset that can control the iPhone's volume

    Hey guys,
    I'm looking to buy a cheap bluetooth headset that can control the iPhone's volume. The reason why I'm looking for that is because I want to take remote pictures. I currently have the Motorola H350 and it does have volume buttons except they control the headset's volume, not the iPhone's.
    I was wondering if you guys could help me.
    Thank you.

    Like ur self, I'm also looking for a bluetooth that can trigger the cam on iphone 4s, mainly for moment when I'm all alone for a picture.
    Have tried the following earphone without success, all purchase through Apple Store, guess will have to source somewhere else.
    1. Jawbone ERA - failed
    2. Bose BLuetooth Headset series II - failed

  • IOS 8 & Bose Bluetooth

    I have an iPhone 5s & Bose Bluetooth headset. Before upgrading to iOS 8 & 8.0.2, I could answer a call on my headset by turning it on and the call would be routed to the headset. Now, in iOS 8.0.2, when I turn my headset on to answer, the call is answered, but routed to my phone. I actually have to go to the phone and choose the Bose headset. Once the headset is chosen, everything acts as expected. If I were to leave the headset on and take the call via the device, it also acts as expected.
    This is obviously a bug. Any ideas if this is being addressed in the updates?

    Same problem for me (using headset Jabra BT2050 with iPhone6 iOS 8) ... still present with iOS 8.1.3
    It's not a bluetooth pairing issue and the only workaround I found is this below
    - Setting/General/Accessibility/Call Audio Routing (set Headset, instead of Automatic)
    but in this way it uses headset (if connected) even if you answer sliding the iPhone
    That's quite incredible from Apple, while using the state of the art for device and iOS (the best iOS and iPhone ever)
    I've reported the same issue here

  • 1520 not connecting to Bose 2 bluetooth headset

    I am switching from a 920 to a 1520 and my Bose 2 bluetooth headsets are not pairing (I have 2 different ones).  I have connected the 1520 to a Bose Soundlink Mini, so it connects to that.  But I do not want to purchase new BT earpieces so I am wandering if this is a known issue ... I have seen other BT issues with the 1520.

    My issue exactly, too. Just got the 1520, attempted to pair with Bose but nothing. Confirmed 1520 will pair with Jambox.

  • Bluetooth Headset with Bose SoundDock

    I tried searching with no success.
    If I get a bluetooth headset can I receive calls if I am playing music thru the iPhone in a Bose SoundDock?

    I don't have a Bose but I have the same issue with a lesser radio with a iPod doc. I also have an FM transmitter for my iPod. The radio and the FM transmitter both work to play music from the iPhone but will not charge. My understanding that the charging voltage from those docks is something other than the 5 volts that the iPhone uses so the phone protects itself by not allowing the dock to charge it. I have been unable to find any type of adapter that will reduce the voltage so the dock will charge the phone.
    I would love to have a Bose but am not glad I did not spend all that money and have a dock that would not charge my phone. Please post if you find any type of solution.

  • Trouble with Bose Bluetooth Notifications

    I am using a Bose bluetooth BT2 headset. When it is coupled the iPhone sends text and email notifications to the headset. Is there a way to have the notifications sound from the phone even when the bluetooth is connected?

    I have a Bose Series 1 Bluetooth headset, but I am unable to make it connect to Skype for online conversations from my PC (Skype 5.8.0.15. Why would a company the size of Skype ignore one of the most basic forms of connecting and talking? Has anyone figured a way to enable this connection?

  • What is the best bluetooth headset for iPhone 5?

    What is the best Bluetooth headset for iPhone 5 for talking no music?

    I've tried all the majors:  Bose (1 model twice), Motorola (2 models), Jawbone (5 models) in almost every model.
    Bose is good but such an odd nub just sitting there on your ear - bad athestics.  Device is fine but not right for me.
    Motorola seem to have troublie with iPhone specifically.   They don't stay paired and noise-cancelling has been bad.  I tried 3 pairs of the Elite Silver with no luck.  Great concept to have a case that charges the device but bad device.  Same issue with the Oasis. 
    Jawbones are good and I've had 5 of them.   They seem to degrade in voice cancelling quality over time based on feedback of people I talk to but they are solid.   I'm sure I just beat them up but they do seem to go bad. 
    My best experience have been BLUEANT, both the Q2 (bought 2) and teh Q3 (own 1).   Q2 are solid but they have this issue with a metal screen that inevitable breaks off, not affecting call quality but a pain.   Q3 have fixed that but they are just a bit bulkier.   Good features (voice answer & address book) and solid.  These are just awesome and good instant on that simply isn't true of all of the devices.  Only downside has been no battery meter on the Q2 for the iphone but a solid workhorse. 
    I just got a new Motorola Whisper and so far I'm impressed.   First motorola that has solid noise reduction and doesn't seem to have the random unpairing issue with the iphone.   It's early yet but great design and comes with a case. 
    I hope this helps.

  • Problems syncing Bose bluetooth to phone.

    Bose Bluetooth will not sync with my phone, any ideas?

    On iphone press ignore this headset (BOSE).
    On headset, press volume down for 10 seconds. That should reset known devices on headset. Then power off both iphone and headset. Try pairing again.

  • Bose Bluetooth ear piece locking up phone. Ipone 4s.

    I'm having a issue with my Bose Bluetooth ear piece. It will work for an hour then when a call comes in and I pick it up it switches to Speakerphone. This is when the phone goes wacky cannot call out or take calls,all the microphones on the phone shut off like its muted by itself. I have to power down the phone and restart and its fine. I have tried two different Bose ear piece and they both do the same thing. Its funny it will work for a few hours then Halloween out!

    Its a hardware problem!
    I had exact same issue.  I went to the Genius Bar at Apple and the first thing the tech wanted to do was restore factory setting, without a back up (which meant I would lose some settings and pics that I could not back up).  He also warned me that I would not be able to restore the phone from my back up as it could possibly re-introduce the bug that c caused the problem.  I agreed (under protest) and waited while he did the restore.   When it was done, I had the issue of resetting my vm password, to which he instructed me that I would have to go to AT&T to resolve.  Luckily there is an AT&T kiosk just outside the door to the Apple store.  They instructed me to call 611 to resolve the issue.  While attempting the 611 call, the same issue started again (speaker came on automatically, could not shut off, person couldn’t hear me etc.)  I went back in the store and the tech then placed two “test” calls to the store itself and the phone worked fine.  He was still not satisfied and sent me away.  As I walked out of the mall, I called AT&T again and the speaker button got stuck.  I left the call connected and brought the phone back into the Apple store with the call connected and the speaker button stuck.  The tech finally agreed it was more likely to be a hardware issue vs a software problem and replaced the handset.  I came back to the office, restored my phone from my back up with all my apps, configurations, settings etc. and the new handset works fine.  All Bluetooth devices (headset, phone) etc. work beautifully!

  • Is there a stereo bluetooth headset that can pair with more than one device at a time?

    Is there a stereo bluetooth headset that can pair, i.e. multipoint, with more than one device at a time?
    Are the MacBook and iPhone 4 capable of multipoint bluetooth technoloagy?
    The goal is for my wife to be able to watch her Korean TV soap operas on her MacBook and still receive a call on her iPhone 4 via a stereo bluetooth headset.
    I was looking at the Motorola S10-HD but after further review saw that it only pairs with one device at a time.
    Appreciate any and all input. My Googling has returned no results.

    You can only pair one device at a time to your 8330, or any other phone for that matter.  The "pairings" are saved to the phone, you can use one or the other and you won't have to pair it again.  Once you turn your bluetooth device on and the phone is on, they will find each other again.

  • I am unable to use my bluetooth headset to record voice memos, is there a trick to this?

    I have a Plantronics Voyager Pro+ Bluetooth headset, I am unable to use it to record voice memos on my Iphone 4, using IOS 6.1.3.  The memos record fine when using the built-in mike but not the Bluetooth headset.  Does anyone have any insight or comments that might help resolve this situation?

  • Play mp3 on bluetooth headset

    Just wanted to share this.
    Yesterday I bought a Jabra EasyGo bluetooth headset. Unfortunately, it could not bluetooth mp3 songs from my iPhone 4 iOS5. It can only be used for making/answering calls. However, today I found out that the headset can also play Voice Memos. This gave me an idea on how to bluetooth the mp3 songs from the iPhone to the headset:
    Step 1 - Convert the mp3 file from Stereo to Mono (I used Audacity to accomplish this).
    Step 2 - Add the Mono mp3 file to the iTunes library in the PC (my iTunes version is 10.5.0.142).
    Step 3 - Sync the iPhone with iTunes.
    Step 4 - In iPhone, open the Voice Memos. The imported mp3 file will appear in the list.
    Step 5 - Turn the headset on (already paired with iPhone), then a 'speaker & bluetooth' icon will appear on top-left corner of the iPhone (see photos below).
    Step 6 - In the Voice Memos, click on the play button next to the name of the the mp3 file.
    Cheerio!

    I don't think I can restore the back up from iCloud, because I did not back it up to iCloud before the update to OS 6.1.4.  I don't think this is related to voice samples because it seems to cut in and out, like Siri is not 'hearing' me, due to a problem with the microphone.
    Apple please help!
