N97 Original Headset - Not Working (Mono)

Hi,
I just got an N97, brand new, the original headset was working at first, made about two phone calls on them, and next time I used them only one side is working aka Mono, the other side works with every single application/radio, but 1 of the two speakers is completely off.
This is not the first time that this happened, to me with nokia, had the same issue with an N95 years ago...

Did u drop it down hard?? Its diffcult to diagonise the problem here, seems to be a hardware failure in the headset, Accessories comes with 6 months warranty so you can go for a replacement visit a Nokia care point

Are you connecting your iPhone directly to your PC or to a USB hub?

3.1.3 firmware, iPhone 3G headset not working properly anymore

Situation:
iPhone 3G 16GB, Firmware 3.1.3.
Updated the other day, and now my apple headphones have stopped working properly. Basically, the pause button on the mic is now intermittent and the same button won't pause iPod functions.
If I restart, it sometimes works OK for a little while then will stop working again. I have also noticed issues with some of the calls that I make being "silent" i.e. they connect, but when I speak the other end can't hear the voice.
If I make the call to my own phone, it usually seems to work OK, which is typical!
Anyone else having the same problem?
The funny thing is that it has to be something that Apple should be responsible for...I use a MacBook, Snowleopard OS, iPhone, and all original cables. Everything is patched to the latest versions and all the hardware is in A1 condition.

I think there may be something wrong with my headphone jack/Bose headset combo. It works fine on my wife's 3GS. The Apple one briefly did not work on mine, then started working. I did the painful restore as new user and it still does not work. Time to go to Bose/Apple.

Anyone know how to fix Bluetooth headset not working properly after iOS 8 update?

I have an iPhone 5S and I use a Plantronics PLT M20 model bluetooth headset. I am no longer able to answer calls by pressing the button on the headset, since updating to iOS 8. I also also cannot end calls by pressing the button on the headset. This only happened after iOS 8. The Apple Care rep stated that "this is most likely a problem with the bluetooth manufacturer and they need to update their firmware, so now it's just a waiting game until they do that". Is that correct? Anyone encountering this?

Hi - I'm a student with disabilities and rely heavily on accessibility features that make my life easier. For example, I use a Bluetooth headset to trying answer phone calls and use Siri… I especially use the "Raise to speak" option for accessing Siri. Since updating my iPhone five us and my iPad air, I've been scrambling to access the "raise to speak" option for Siri without success. When I called AppleCare, the representative stated I should have that option to enable in my settings. When I explained to her that the option is not showing, she wanted me to reset my phone to factory settings. When I told her I googled the issue and found that it may have been removed in iOS 8… She put me on hold, Came back and told me I was right.
What's worse is that that my Bluetooth headset is no longer working with my iPhone 5S. She stated that it may being I needed adjustment from the manufacturer of the headset– Plantronics. All I know is that the apple care representatives seem confused and I am extremely disappointed in this really impacts my use of Siri and my phone.
When I asked her to submit feedback to her supervisor or the powers that be… I was simply asked to submit feedback to the Apple.com website. While I understand Apple might read that feedback, I also recognize that they don't reply and I don't feel that is great support to someone like me who has a disability and needs a solution. The"Hey Siri" option is not working for me.
Does anyone have any workarounds for the "Raise to speak" problem or the Bluetooth problem? Specifically, the Bluetooth issue is when I try to hit the button on my Bluetooth headset to answer a call or end the call. It's a Plantronics PLT M20 model.

Follow-up to my earlier post that iPhone 6 Bluetooth not working correctly. I purchased a Jawbone MiniJambox to use as a speaker phone in my office. Everyone in our company thinks they are the best. However, it is experiencing the same issues as with all my other Bluetooth headsets. Everything works except cannot answer or hang up calls pushing the buttons on the Bluetooth devices. The Bluetooth patio speakers in our courtyard also have the same issue. However, my colleagues using iPhone 5 and 5s who did not update to iOS8 are using all Bluetooth devices without any issues. Apple says it is a problem with my Bluetooth device. Come on Apple.... This makes 7 different Bluetooth devices with different manufacturers. You cannot possibly believe the problem is with the Bluetooth devices when iOS7 works perfectly fine...
On another issue, my iPhone 5s worked perfectly fine in my vehicle entertainment center connected via USB. The vehicle entertainment center had complete control of my iPhone and iTunes. However, now I plug in my new iPhone 6 and it no longer communicates with my vehicle entertainment center. Again when I called Apple, they said my vehicle entertainment center needed a firmware update. Are you kidding me... That is a bunch of BS...!!!

LiveSound headset not working correctly in cold weather.

Has anyone with the LiveSound hifi headset had problems with one of the earpieces (aka the left one for me) not working as it should? I was walking yesterday, outdoors, when it stopped working properly. Most of the music and sound for phone calls was on the right side,not the left. I read somewhere that this was a design flaw of the LiveSound headset. Once it warmed up later in the day, it returned back to normal.
Called SONY to report the problem, first for an exchange, then to tell them it has returned to working properly, and that this must be a design flaw. CSR agent (female) became rude,said she never heard of such problem, to send in or return to SONY store for exchange. I cannot travel 150 miles one way to exchange a defective headset everytime it does not work properly!
I would like feedback,please. Thank you very much!!

Jeff;
Thank you,but I believe a replacement is not going to be a solution, since from what I have read, there is no solution to this problem at this time. If you were willing to give me a credit, I can live with that. Otherwise no.
My mobile is becoming problematic, as with almost everything I have purchased from SONY. I will NOT recommend purchasing anything from SONY unless I find out otherwise that your mobiles are more reliable. My friends WILL NEVER purchase ANYTHING from SONY due to being totally unreliable. This would have never happened in the past, but has become commonplace in the present.
I also suggest a shakeup at customer support; no one knew about this problem, nor were they gracious. The lady I spoke to the last time was extremely rude. I cannot abide by that. Your support, since the involvement of SONY over the past few years, has caused customer support to become horrendous. I cannot abide by that either. Either customer support changes, or I will look elsewhere when looking into a new mobile phone.

N97 mini - restore not working

The restore function on my N97 mini seems not to work. I've setup my N97 to daily backup @ 06:00 due to an software error in the PC Suite I've lost all my messages. Yet when I restore the message the mailbox stays empty.
How do I successfully restore the messages on my N97mini?

Yes for sure, most of us did backups & restored the messages successfully taking into account the backup process itself was successful. You have to make sure that you select the same memory, whether "c" or "e", when you backup & restore. If you select "e" as the memory of storing messages, you had to backup mass memory, & restore mass memory to have your messages back.
By the way, what do you mean by nbu file?

Regular iphone headset not working

I bought this headset about six weeks ago. I was listening to music using my iphone headset this morning - it was fine when i last used it. As i was walking home just awhile ago i decided to listen to some music, but the right side of the earphone wasn't working. The left side is working just fine.
Does Apple warranty for the iphone also include the apple headset?

I have the same problem, adding that the headset does not work with the iPhone functions anymore. The problem is that I bought a separate pair in NY, in the Fifth Avenue Apple Store. But now I am in Brazil. The warranty is still good until october. How should I proceed to have the headset changed for a new one?

Hi
I m using Byte Corseca BT Stereo bluetooth Headset its working fine in windows 8 . when i get update from microsoft windows 8.1 its not working ..Please any one give me the solution.

what is your laptop model?
update your Bluetooth driver, in order to work with Windows 8.1 your Bluetooth driver need to be updated
you can find updated driver from your manufactured site. I this Bluetooth comes with software, try to reinstall it
Please also check if there is any important update driver for your laptop

Bluetooth Headset Not Working in Bootcamp/Windows XP

I have a Plantronics Bluetooth headset that works fine in OSX, and is paired successfully in Windows XP. For some reason though, Skype doesn't recognize it, and it is not visible in the sound control panel. The latest Macintosh Drivers disk seems to have updated the Bluetooth driver, and I thought all of those issues were resolved. Anyone know what the problem could be here?
Thanks.

Late arrival. I posted re this topic about a year ago, to no avail. Then - 10.5.2 - the youtube, etc. files froze along with no audio via bluetooth, now (10.5.7) the video plays and only the audio stops!
This is not 'a Safari problem', it is a bluetooth/Mac/Flash problem that is ultimately only going to be sorted by Apple, I fear. And, I fear, it is not much of a priority for them while all their talent is still puzzling over the Java security problems...
You could try looking at this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6384201
but nothing in it helped me, alas.
This:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2178?viewlocale=en_US
doesn't work with my headset (and probably works with none) either. Anybody know a hack that will allow changes to audio sampling rates offered in the Audio MIDI Setup app??
Or any other solution? A number of us would be very grateful!

Bluetooth headset not working with flash files

Just got a Plantronics Voyager 510 bluetooth headset. Works just fine, except when viewing clips at YouTube. Not only is there no sound, the clip freezes after a few seconds. I believe they are Adobe Flash. Now this is on my new late 2007 MacBook with Leopard.
So I figure I'll try the headset on my Intel 1.66 Mac Mine with Tiger 10.4.10. Same thing
Any ideas.

Apparently Apple cheaped out on the Bluetooth support in the Tiger OS X (or an official profile wasn't even available)....something to do with not having Stereo Headset support.
It is possible to circumvent it: http://blog.david.connolly.name/2007/06/stereo-bluetooth-profile-a2dp-on-mac-os. html However, as indicated on the top of that topic - it is outdated (and IMO too much effort).
In a nutshell - you're being quietly coaxed in to buying Leopard OS X - which does have the Stereo Bluetooth profile installed.
What I don't get is why Apple can't release to us a nice little patch for Tiger to give us the full use of our Bluetooth hardwares.

Restoring Original iphone not working

My (original) iphone's screen locked. It would not allow me to power it down and the touch screen would not work. It would receive calls but not let me answer them. I tried restoring it on my imac (OS 10.6.8) by doing the following: I hit restore iphone. It asked if I'd like to back it up. I clicked yes. I proceeded to restore it. When I power on the phone it indicates I should connect it to itunes. When I link it to my itunes the device registers in the left column however there are no options to do anything with the phone. I'm not sure where my back up is and how to get my phone working again. Is there anyone out there that can help?

I'm in this same spot. Went to the Apple store yesterday and was informed that Apple removed the support completly for the original iPhone so if you restore an orginal iPhone now and connect it to iTunes it won't do anything but charge it. I'm fairly upset about this because now the device is worthless. I can't believe they did this. After 15 years of support this item really upset me. It is like you get penalized for using an older device. I'm currently trying to see if I can JB it from the "iTunes sync" screen, but not looking so good.

Why does batch rename Original Case not work properly?

The Batch rename funtion for >Current Filename >Name >Original Case does not work.
Why?

For some reason it doesn't do a thing. Unless my inderstanding of its function is not correct.
It doesn't a thing by design, when having selected 'current filename' / Name / and 'Original Case' it does what it says, it leaves everything original as is in the existing filename. You can also choose to use uppercase and lowercase to either change all characters of the existing file name to uppercase or lowercase.
I can imagine you have been mislead by the fact the write UPPERCASE and lowercase to show as an example and used two capitals in 'Original Case'. Sadly enough the use of capitals in common throughout Bridge is not very consistent and sometimes even very strange to put it mildly…

Wired Headsets not working with Galaxy S5

I have a number of wired 2.5mm headsets that I use with other Android based smart phones (Droid 4 most recently). I use multiple 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapters, and they have all working fine for all of them.
When I try to use any of my wired headsets + adapters with my Samsung Galaxy S5 I hear the audio from the headset, but other people don't hear my voice from the headset. When I connect the headset it shows as "earphones" everytime, and indeed does work fine as a earphone, but the microphone does not work. I'm wondering if there is a setting I need to change so the S5 sees my wired headset as a device with a microphone and not just headphones.
Does anyone have any ideas on this?

I found out that the wiring of the contacts is different for some phones. If the earbuds say compatible with iPhone then the tip/ring/sleeve contacts are swapped in relation to the Galaxy S5's contacts. See: Phone connector (audio) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bletooth headset not working

Hi,
Since last Saturday bluetooth headset is not working with my iPhone 3G. As soon as I make a call using that or answer a call, I get call failed error and AT&T signal goes away. After call is hungup after failure, the AT&T signal comes back. It was working just fine before that. I tried another bluetooth headset with the same problem. I followed couple of posts in this forum and tried soft reset, repairing and even restoring phone to factory settings but no luck Has anybody seen the same problem ? My iPhone firmware version is 2.2.1(which I guess is the latest).
Thanks in advance and regards

Are you stating that when you do not use bluetooth, you do not have a problem with calls?
The fact that you tried two bluetooth headsets with the same results shows it is not the headset.
If you place your SIM in another phone, care you able to make calls?
