I sit next to my headset and turn on bluetooth on both the headset and the tablet but the tablet says "no nearby bluetooth devices were found"
Why? Last time I tried wit my brother's ipad and my sister's ipod touch it worked fine
Edit: never mind, because i didn't know how to connect the headset the first time lol. I was supposed to press and hold for a few seconds until i hear some sound...

I am not having much luck with my new headset.
First time I bond the headset it works fine, but once bluetooth tools shuts down the bluetooth after a call, the headset it never gets it back correct.
The headset will still link and the call button will take the call, but I can't communicate.
After you have taken a call on the headset, is there a way of getting the call back onto the xda?
I even tried leaving the bluetooth on all the time but that wasn't that successful either.
Anyone else using the logitech can they please advise me how they manage it's use.
Thanks.
I have been using logitech BT headphones love the unit. I dont have any problems except for the delay for it to connect to the phones. I have to wait for about 2 seconds before its connected to the phones when receiving calls. BTW I have been using it for the past 6 months. 8)
Do you use Bluetooth tools or just the stock standard bluetooth support?
Thanks.
Has anyone been able to pair a Jawbone 2 with the EVO? I haven't had any luck.
My EVO was able to pair with my Dell AdamoXPS laptop.
Thanks!

ive been having the same problems my phone won't find my jawbone anyone had any luck?
Pairing to Jawbone 2
Hold button on back of headset & turn on, when light flashes red - white tell phone find new device. Done
uh no i have the regular jawbone you press the middle button and hold it to turn it on. It should connect automatically if you have paired before. Since the phone is new i haven't but the problem is the phone won't find it when pressing scan for devices. I've done it with my g1 many times without a problem but the evo seems not to pick it up.
my jawbone prime pairs just fine

I have a Jawbone 2 and paired mine up with the EVO the first time, no problems.
Make sure your bluetooth is in pairing mode. I know for the Jawbone 2, to put into pairing mode, turn the bluetooth OFF. The both the volume and power buttons at the same time. The light should blink red, white, red, white, etc. This means you are in pairing mode.
While the bluetooth is in pairing mode, on your phone go to Settings > Wireless & Networks > Bluetooth settings > Scan for devices
You guys are absolutely right since post #3 i didn't understand it at first. I never had to do that to my jawbone with my g1. As soon as the jawbone turned on it would pair ask for pass code '0000' and done. For some reason this step is required with the evo, it's the only way it actually found it while scanning.
I had no issues. See post #3.

I followed these instructions to a T and it still won't find it. Hmmm....I'm going to have to try another bluetooth. Weird....it detected my laptop's just fine.
I want to know if there is a feature in bluetooth so that any time I bring my phone into range of the BT device, that it will automatically reconnect, without me having to push any buttons on the phone, or device. I guess this could depend on the device and/or phone, so if someone replies "yeah, this is how my X device connects to my Y phone", then that will answer my question. Of course, this is a Vibrant forum, and I do have a Vibrant phone, so all the better if someone tells me it works on Vibrants.
I am not sure what initiates the connection, but when I start my car my Bluetooth connects automatically with my vibrant.
I have a jawbone headset That I use, if my Bluetooth is enabled, it automatically pairs with it when in range. However, if my headset is in off mode, then obviously it does not do That.

Hmm... then I guess it is a function of the BT device. I am using the blueant speaker phone, and I would really like it if it just automatically connects to my phone each time I get in the car. Right now I have to press a button on the speakerphone each time I get in the car to reconnect.
I've seen weirdness with bluetooth after I've paired more then one device to the phone. T-Mobile support told me the Vibrant simply doesn't support pairing to more then one device (not just active at a time, but more then one paired at all). That sounded like bunk to me, but it sure is how my phone is acting.
I've got a PLT510 headset as well as a LiquidAux stereo adaper in the car and Plantronics 903 BackBeat Headphones. Since the LiquidAux and the 903 both give Media support and the all three devices provide "phone" support the phone seems to get real confused.
Sometimes bluetooth devices auto pair and just work, but it is not uncommon for me to have to force them into pairing mode again and search for them as if they are new devices.
I am hopeful 2.2 improves the bluetooth support.
Interesting. My Blueant speaker phone is the only device with which I have paired my Vibrant, but I have had to reboot my phone a couple of times to make it connect. I would go in my car, hit the connect button on the speaker phone and the speaker phone would report "No phone found", even though the phone was turned on and less than two feet from the speaker phone. Reboot the phone and press the connect button again and what-do-you-know, it works.
I am also hoping that 2.2 gives me some BT improvements. Voice dialing will be very nice, but I hope they fix all the other BT issues that are affecting me.

I have 2 devices paired with my vibrant. My car kit and some Motorola S9HD headphones.
SLIGHTLY off topic, how do you like those headphone ( S9HD) s, looking for a good stereo set for walking and maybe even jogging

They are great. I read lots of horror stories about the original red and black S9's and sweat, but I know there are an ungodly amount of Chinese knockoffs out there and I chalk it up to that. If you buy them retail I don't think you'd have any issues.
Just got my Vibrant yesterday and I was trying to pair it with my Jawbone 1 headset but it's not being recognized by the phone, I've turned them on and off several times but nothing seems to work.
It was working perfectly on my G1 as of yesterday so I know the headset works.
Any suggestions?
hi all dear members... i have a problem in connecting the sony bluetooth headset dr-bt21g.. i bought it 2 years ago with a sony mp3 its working fine with the mp3..
but am trying to connect it with the asus tf and the tf can never recognise it..any ideas..?thx
Have you tried holding the on button on the headset for a longer time? I think I had to hold the power button on mine for 7 seconds or more before it could establish a connection with my transformer.

I own one myself and use it with my Transformer.
Works great.
Make sure you activate the pairing mode and the Transformer will find it and pair.
I have a Jabra Freeway in my car and Plantronics M165 in my ear. My iPhone would work with both devices at the same time. Even with the M165 on, the iPhone would connect to the Freeway when I got in the car. When the phone rang, it rang both devices and I could answer either one.
Now I’ve got the Note 3 and it seems that it will only connect to one or the other. Both devices work fine. Just not at the same time. If I get in the car with the M165 on, the Freeway just says “disconnected” repeatedly until I turn the M165 off.
I presume this is a limitation of the Note 3 bluetooth stack but just thought I would check to be sure. I read on another forum where someone said it should work with both devices but that was all that was said. Anybody actually do this with the Note 3?
From what I have found you can have 2 Bluetooth devices connected at the same time, but not performing the same function. For example, you can have your headset bluetooth set as the active bluetooth for phone functions and your car bluetooth set as the active bluetooth for media functions. If you long press each Bluetooth device within the Bluetooth settings menu on your phone, you can choose how your phone connects via bluetooth to each device.
and that is, from what I understand, the Bluetooth limitations for Android.

That's what I figured. I'll keep my fingers crossed that KitKat updates will remedy this. In the meantime I guess it's a small thing to give up in exchange for the gains.
