IPhone 2.0 and Bluetooth Headset

Does the new 2.0 upgrade work with or recognize the existing Bluetooth headset at all? I left my headset on the charger for a couple weeks, it says "paired" but im unable to connect, activate or make calls with Bluetooth headset. I read all the posts, but they are mostly relating to Bluetooth compatibility with various vehicles. I want regular connection to my phone. Its not happening. What gives?

I found this answer on another discussion and it works!
Go to Settings > General > Bluetooth > then touch the "iPhone Bluetooth Headset Paired" button.
A menu will pop up. One of the choices is "Unpair." Touch "Unpair."
When it unpairs, put your iPhone and headset back in the charger, where they will autopair again.

  • Does this Work With Iphone? MOTOROLA S9 BLUETOOTH HEADSET

    I have heard that this works with Iphone? MOTOROLA S9 BLUETOOTH HEADSET ...does anyone know if it truly does or do you all know of a headset (over the head or behind the neck) one that does?
    < Edited by Host, for your protection, no personal information please. >
    Thanks
    Bill

    I was in a wireless store when I inquired to a manager about this product (S9 Motorola Bluetooth Wireless Headset), and asked if it worked with both the iPod and phone capabilities of my iPhone....to which this manager replied that she knew for a fact that she had read on the apple support forums that this product did, in fact work with both music and phone functionality, once paired.
    I believe now that she was using this tactic to make more apple-endorsed-sales of this headset, and therefore get more commissions for her store. I mean every employee in the store was wearing them and toting that they worked flawlessly when asked, it was disgusting now that I think of it.
    I called the store back up and asked to speak to that manager again, and she maintained that what she read was in fact true, even when I told her that I found that the iPhone does not currently support this headset's bluetooth technology, and that possibly what she read was that once paired the headset works with the phone part of the iPhone but not the iPod part.....she railed that she was correct and that what she read supported both, in spite of all evidence to the contrary, here on apple's support forums.
    I think that wireless company employees with a new product that they cannot officially confirm compatibilities, should not go unchecked for spreading misinformation, merely to promote sales for walk-ins...its really terrible, especially on the biggest day of the shopping year and all the hype already created and money put into incentives to rush sales.
    Don't believe the hype. Even the phone capability of the S9 headset is not stereo for the iPhone. Really not worth over a $100 for this kind of minor functionality.

  • Fm transmitter and bluetooth headset usage

    This might have been asked before but I cannot find the answer. I am looking at buying an iphone 3g and the problem I have had with previous phones is when I am plugged into an fm transmitter an incoming phone call is routed through the headset jack making my bluetooth totally useless. if i use a transmitter made specificly for the iphone 3g with a dock connector when I get a phone call while using the ipod function can I simply answer the call with my bluetooth headset button or do I have to unplug the transmitter first? I am not looking for a speaker phone feature over my fm radio.

    I called Griffin Technology and they said this feature is supportecd with the itrip auto and itrip autopilot.

  • IPhone 3GS Not Recognizing Bluetooth Headset

    I am having no luck pairing my iPhone 3GS to my Jabra Jawbone bluetooth headset. The headset worked fine for the past couple of years with my original iPhone but is not recognized by my new iPhone.
    I power up the headset and open Settings > General > Bluetooth and then select "On". What I would expect to see is my device show up, select it, and enter the passcode to pair the device to the phone. However, under "Devices" it just says "Searching" with the spinning graphic to the right. Any suggestions?

    I'm an idiot...I was holding down the wrong button on my headset... If you find yourself with this problem, just make sure to google how to pair your particular headset and you should be fine.

  • New iOS 7 and Bluetooth Headsets

    Hi,
    I intaslled the new iOS 7 on my iPhone 4S last night and today none of the button functions on my bluetooth headset (pause, next track, last track, random play, etc.) are working.  They worked under iOS 6 no problem - Any ideas why they aren't working now?  How do I get them back?
    The headset pairs okay and I hear the music through the earpieces though I now only seem to be able to control the music directly from the music app screen - which is not convenient to use whilst I am riding my motorcycle.
    Many Thanks.

    Hi there,
    Have you tried deleting your headset from the list of devices? Go to Settings>Bluetooth>(your headset name)> the information "i">forget this device. Then re-pair. This worked for my Jaybird BluebudX headset. Annoyingly the battery health meter for the headset's battery does not show with IOS 7.
    Good luck!

  • Mpd and bluetooth headset

    Anyone of you guys got mpd and bluetooth audio up and working? I cant seam to find any good info in the matter.

    I'm just guessing here, but maybe something along the lines of this in /etc/mpd.conf
    audio_output {
    type "alsa"
    name "My ALSA Device"
    device "hw:0,0"
    format "44100:16:2"
    Change the 'device' line to suit whatever numbers your bluetooth headset is...

  • Front Row and bluetooth headset

    Hi
    I'm using a bluetooth headset (no mic) and each time I enable it I don't have sound at all in front row. It works fine when I use this headset and run quicktime or itunes fron desktop but as soon as i switch to front row it stop working. Sometimes I may hear 1 or 2 sound effect when I scroll in the fron row menu but as soon as I try to play a movie or a music, I don't hear anything.
    Is there any tips to know to make them work together ?
    Tks,
    Xavier

    I have the exact same issue. I've filed a bug with apple, but no response. This is with the latest version of Leopard, on a Core 2 Duo Mac Mini

  • 6682 and bluetooth headset with no sound - Here's ...

    Hello,
    I had an 'no sound' issue with a 6682 and a Jabra BT250 bluetooth headset. I've had the phone for 2 months and used the BT250 with it every day.
    My problem started when I connected a POP connector and wired headset (not the standard Nokia version). From that point forward, when I connect my bluetooth headset all of the correct icons appear on the phone showing the BT headset is connected and the bluetooth connection is functioning, but the sound does not come out of the headset. It comes out of the handset (like a normal call) instead.
    I searched through the forum and found this procedure listed for the N70 and other headsets.
    - Take out the battery
    - Take out your sim
    - Leave it for at least 2 hours
    - Put another SIM into it
    I'm adding these steps
    - Turn on the phone
    - If prompted, enter the correct time and date
    - Pair the headset with the phone
    - The headset should now work correctly
    - Power down the phone and replace the borrowed SIM card with your own.
    - Pair the headset with the phone.
    - The bluetooth headset should now work correctly.
    This procedure correected my problem. A thorough cleaning of the connector contacts did not help.
    I hope this helps someone else.

    Did you ever figure out how to use the headset? I am having the same problem

  • IOS 7 on iPhone 4S WiFi and Bluetooth greyed out.  Help!

    I upgraded to iOS 7 last night.  WiFi and bluetooth were working fine.  When I woke up today, the WiFi toggle in settings was greyed out and the bluetooth toggle was missing and kept showing the "waiting wheel".  Help!!!!!

    All done now - the issue is with the WiFi chip - and when you update IOS it checks all components out to see if they are working correctly, then shuts them down if they are not.
    It is a hardware failure, and is pretty common with iphone 4S.... If your phone is over 12 months (and you didn't take out extended warranty) you have the pleasure of paying Apple £139 for a 'remanufactured' phone with 3 months warranty.
    Nothing like my expectation for a premium product (with a premium price tag) - its a component durability issue, nothing to do with the user, an Apple component fault. However forget it if you think it is Apple's problem, if it is out of warranty, they aren't interested.My love affair with Apple products is over, google products here I come...
    Rant over....

  • IPhone original Wifi and Bluetooth deactivated?

    Ok, so I bought a new 3G and my original iPhone was deactivated, but still worked in every other way besides 'phone', so I gave it to my girlfriend to use as just an iPod Touch right now (she's going to get it activated in about a week with AT&T), but for some reasons in the settings, WiFi and Bluetooth are disabled. Bluetooth isn't that big of a deal, but it'd be nice if she could use WiFi. I'm not sure if the SIM card would have to be activated for this feature to be available or not, but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have to be. Does anyone know why it would be like this?

    No. It's not.
    I remember right after I completely reset it, it asked me if I wanted to join my WiFi, and I just said no (since I was giving the phone to her), but now that she has it, the option is completely disabled.

  • Speaker and Bluetooth Headset Problem on Lenovo P70

    Hello All, I have purchased Lenovo P70 one month ago. This phone is pretty nice for day to day use. But I am facing some peculiar problem as follows: While using any VOIP application like Skype, Viber, Whatsapp, imo (or whatever); if i try to go from earphone to speaker or bluetooth headset mode, I can't hear any sound. The sound nither plays on earphone or on the speaker or bluetooth headset. Even the other party can't here. Even my cheaper Lenovo A329 has no problem doing so. I'm sure this is a software glitch which needs to be fixed. For your information, my build number is P70-A_S129_150320_16g_ROW Kindly let me know if there's any solution.

    Hey JameZ, Thanks for your reply. To be honest with you, I haven't tried the headset which came in box. but surely the speaker mode dosen't work properly in any VOIP application. the sound hangs for about 30-40 seconds and even after the sound comes, it goes again. As for BT headset, kindly see the screenshot below to get better idea. Since the BT headset works fine in normal calls, I'm pretty sure, the problem lies in the OS.  If you have the device around, I would urge you to check for yourself for the problem. I have tried the similar things with my friends P70, the problem remains same. Kindly do the needful

  • N82 WLAN and Bluetooth Headset

    Hi Guys,
    I have two problems:
    1. I have a Nokia Bluetooth headset HS-36W and my Nokia N82 does not seem to detect it. However, my Nokia 7610 was able to detect it and I was able to use the headset. Is HS-36W not compatible with Nokia N82?
    2. I tried using WLAN but was a failure. The connection was open so NO user ID or passwords were required. Error was WEB: NO GATEWAY REPLY. Others using a laptop was able to access the network. Is there any problem or is there something required from me to do?
    Appreciate your advice.
    Many thanks!

    Check your positioning settings first: what is your access point there, and what is your positioning server address? The access point should be a GPRS access point, defined by your service provider. Write down your default positioning server address and replace it with supl.nokia.com that usually works well. If it won't, you can always return back to your default server. Usually the server is automatically correct on N82.
    You can't use WLAN connection for the Assisted GPS and most likely also WAP is out of the question. You'll need to use a GPRS connection in order to get the current satellite status without waiting outside for several minutes. If you don't have a GPRS data subscription, you're out of luck. Contact your service provider for this.
