Missed calls - ringing through headset

I am missing incoming calls, because my phone is ringing through the headset when I'm not using it.  Even when I turn off media to the headset, it turns itself back on and the ringing always goes to the headset (Voyager Pro + earpiece with A2DP). 
I have a Samsung Fascinate and this issue started a couple of weeks ago - about the time that Verizon forced the Gingerbread update onto my phone.
This morning I was awakened by one short ring and then missed the call.  I discovered that media had been turned on, even though I made sure it was turned off last night.  It turns itself on and I miss important calls.

That issue sounds very frustrating. I can provide some additional steps that should take care of the issue. There were some improvements made to Bluetooth with the latest software update.  Please ensure your software is up to date before proceeding with these troubleshooting steps. Here's the software update site. I would suggest:
1) Delete the Voyager PRO from the paired device list entirely. 
2) Clear the cache/data of the Bluetooth app on the Fascinate: Settings> Applications> Manage Applications> All> Clear the Cache/Data/Force Stop on the following Apps: Bluetooth Share - Bluetooth Test (if possible) - OPP - Along with any other apps that show the Bluetooth symbol.
3) Reboot your phone.
4) Pair your Fascinate with your Voyager PRO: Bluetooth Pairing Guide 
5) Retest
This is always a last option, but may be relevant: How to Factory Reset the Fascinate. Please let us know which (if any) of the troubleshooting steps worked for you in case others are in the same boat. 
Thanks,

  • Call rings through--do not disturb on   earphones?

    In settings, do not disturb, I have silence on--locked or not. I have allow calls from no one. Yet yesterday while listening to a meditation tape with earphones with DND on, a call rang through.
    What am I missing here?

  • When bluetooth headset is connected to iphone,I can't hear iphone ringing aloud when I have a call or a text. Do i really have to wear the bluetooth headset all the time in my ear to know when I have a call or a message? Why it doesnt ring through iphone?

    when bluetooth headset is connected to iphone,I can't hear iphone ringing aloud when I have a call or a text. Do i really have to wear the bluetooth headset all the time in my ear to know when I have a call or a message? Why it doesnt ring through iphone but it rings through the bluetooth headsets?
    In other phones, you can hear the phone ringing and if it was connected to bluetooth, you could pick up the call from the bluetooth headset.
    Here with iphone, if its connected to bluetooth headset, it only rings through the headset, which means that if you dont have the headset in the ear all the time, you cannot know that you have an incoming call or message.
    Any ideas - solutions - comments please?

    I'm having the same problem. I had a plantronics 975 (which I lost, sadly). When connected, the ringer would always be routed through the bluetooth and the iPhone's external speaker. When in silent mode, the iPhone would only vibrate, but I could still hear the ringer in the bluetooth.
    I just bought a new Plantronics Voyager+. Now when it's connected, all sounds are routed to the earpiece - including the taps, etc. The iPhone's speaker doesn't ring at all, unless the bluetooth is disconnected or powered off. I'd really like to be able to hear both, like I was before. This is an iPhone 3G running iOS 4 (latest version, not sure what it is exactly). Haven't updated software/firmware in between bluetooths, just changed the earpiece.

  • IPhone 5s incoming call rings on both headsets and speaker while headsets plugged in

    Why my iphone 5s rings on both speaker and headsets in incoming call, while the headsets plugged in the phone? 

    Hi Lucasethio,
    That is expected behavior on a non-muted iPhone. If you mute/silence the ringer with the side switch, you should still hear the ringer through any plugged in headsets as well. You may also find the following article helpful:

  • My phone does not ring when receiving a call. It then goes to voicemail and doesn't show a missed call.

    I have an iPhone 4. When someone tries to call me, the phone sometimes(most of the time now) does not ring. It will roll over to voicemail but does not show a missed call. Has anyone had this same thing happen and how did you get it rectified?

    My wife's iphone 4 also has your same no ring problem as does my iphone 5 just less often.  I called her iphone 4 at home from where I work 20 miles away on my iphone 5.  With her phone in 3G mode ONE call went through and 9 went to voice mail in 10 tries.  This is a 10% sucess rate!!  I also could listen in real time from the wired work phone and the wired home phone.  She turned off 3G mode and it went to "O" mode at  the top left of the screen after the ATT.  In this mode it rang on the first ring tone 5 times out of 5 tries which is 100% of the time.  I have learned that the calling party will hear up to 4 ring tones when placing a call on the ATT network.  If the ring tone changes volume slightly before the 4th ring then and only then will the cell phone start to ring.  If the ring tone does not change after the 4th ring you get voice mail.  If the calling party does not leave a voice message there is never a missed call displayed on the iphone.  If the calling party does leave a voice message a few minutes later the iphone dings for arriving voice mail but still no missed call indication. 
    This appears to be related to the time of day and the ATT tower that the receiving caller is using.  Tried other towers and it works in 3G mode 10 times out of 10 tries.  Apple replaced the first iphone 4 with a new phone, no improvement.  ATT replaced the SIM card and no improvement.  ATT so far is clue less.  This has been going on every since we got the new iphones which is 4 months.  The ATT web site also describes this same problem from several years ago.  Has anyone got better information?
    Thanks

  • My iphone 4s sometimes wont show voice mail,sometimes wont ring just shows missed call,sometimes wont receive a text till next day. can anybody help me???

    My phone sometimes wont show voice mail,sometimes wont ring just shows missed calls,and some text messages wont show received till next day. Can anyone help?

    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Try reseating or replacing the SIM card.
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). 
    Has any of the above been tried?

  • IPhone 5s won't ring or show missed calls

    I have a a new iPhone 5s, and new service with Virgin. Its been working fine for the past month.  Suddenly, today it stopped ringing on incoming calls. Neither, does the phone vibrate.  Additionally, incoming calls do not show in the "Missed Call" log.  If the caller leaves a voice-mail, that will show, and I will get my audible notification.  The phone is not in "mute" and the "Do Not Disturb" is not turned on.  The volume is turned all the way up. All other sound-features are working. The software is up-to-date.  I've tried calling my phone from a land-line at my office, as well as a cell-phone from another provider.  My bill was paid in full 4 days ago. I have tried turning the phone off completely, twice, and the issues persists.  Some advice I've read here said to reset the phone.  But several users stated that this did not fix the problem.  Prior to this phone, I used an iPhone 4, for four years, and never had this problem.  Help!  I missed my phone-call interview for the Dream Job I have been shooting for for ten years.  I HAVE to resolve this before my rescheduled interview on Monday.  Please help!!

  • How can I fix my phone's ringer? The call comes through but it won't ring.

    I've had my iPhone for over 6 months now with no issues. I have not had it reserviced, its not refurbished, and I bought it new from an AT&T store.
    This week my phone stopped ringing. The incoming call comes through on the screen, but it doesn't ring out loud so I know I'm getting a call and I can't sit and stare at my iPhone's screen all day long to see if I'm getting an incoming call. It vibrates when a call comes in maybe 20% of the time.
    Today I went into settings and reset my settings but it still didn't bring my ringer back. It plays the ringers when you are looking through the list of ringers, it plays it when you alter the volume setting, but when a call is actually coming in or when I'm receiving a text message or something, no sound.
    What can I do to get my ringer back?

    Check the mute switch on the side above the volume rocker. If the red dot shows, the phone is muted. You'll still be able to play the ringtones to select one.
    I find that the switch can be thrown to "mute" by accident when I put my iPhone in my belt holster.

  • Ios7 no call decline option when its locked battert drains fast music is not able to controlled through headset unless the music app is open  please fix these bugs

    Ios7 no call decline option when its locked battert drains fast music is not able to controlled through headset unless the music app is open  please fix these bugs

    if they are unable to update all languages in a normal time gap (it is now 6 months ago they released firmware 4.22 for the first product code (actually mine and maybe a few others)), they should not offer those many versions. the huge bug with out of memory in nokia navigator with firmware 3.58 is not fixed yet for those people. really absolutely not acceptable.
    besides that, currently my phone is in a nokia service center, microphone doesnt work anymore (the one who i call just hears a very loud noise). my brother got the same phone, his one is in nokia service center since 2 weeks now, because it doesnt charge anymore as there seems to be a connection broken inside the phone).
    well that will be fun if the phone returns (approximately 4 weeks), as I guess the phones will have new IMEIs as they will send 2 new phones and not fix the problem (would cost them more). but as i got a western europe with nordics-map licence locked to the imei, the next problem will be there after I get a nokia 6110navi with another IMEI back. i get really upset with this really slow support.

    I'm Missing Calls Because My iPhone Isn't Ringing but in headphone is working properly

    If you haven't tried it yet, I'd eliminate memory issues first.  Close all of the apps with the double tap on the home button method

    i have tried manythings but it doesn't work

    Basic troubleshooting steps outlined in the user guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.  Try each of these steps until your problem is solved. If these steps fail to solve your issue, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple (or an authorized service provider in your area) for evaluation.

  • Q10 ring tone continues to play after missed call

    using q10.
    the ring tone continues to play after missed call. tried to change the ring tone from song to default ring tone available in the os but the problem remains the same.

    I recommend installing the official version 10.1.0.4181
    By now also tell them that these errors will be fixed in the next official update to OS 10.2 is expected to be available soon.
    My thinking about the end of October.
