Ok, I've never had a headset before, I'll admit it. Can anyone tell me what the heck I'm doing wrong? I turned headset on, paired it with the phone and the phone recognized it. I try to make a call or take a call and either A. Nothing happens and sound is in handset like normal, or B. I can't hear anything or talk on either.
I should add that when I hold the button on my headset to transfer calls from phone to headset, nothing happens.. also, the "turn on hands-free" option under the call menu isn't available.

Please help! I tried to search for an answer to my problem, but while it seems there have been issues aplenty with WM and BT, I couldn't find a similar case.
So, how it goes: I have my Sony Ericsson HBH-DS980 Bluetooth stereo headset connected to my TP, when I receive a call. I pick up the call with the headset, and everything goes smoothly for a couple of minutes, but then suddenly I can't hear anything from the earplugs. I check the phone, and it shows that BT is on, but doesn't have the icon indicating that a headset is connected. I check my headset, and it's powered up. The call has been transferred to the phone. I restart my headset, and the TP discovers the headset, after which I can redirect the call to the headset. After a few minutes it all happens again!
It's extremely frustrating! Can anyone help, please?
I'm using standard 1.90.401.1 WWE ROM.

I noticed recently that I can make a phone call out using my BT headset and MSVC and when it connects, the BT drops the call and my phone becomes the reciever. Annoying when I'm waiting for the call to connect, and the person is already there on the line going "hello?hello?"
I also noticed that when I get a call, sometimes the same thing happens. My phone rings, when I press my headset to answer sometimes, it goes straight to phone.
Sounds like the BT is loosing connection...
Same here. I hear nothing on BT and I bring the phone up to my ear and the person is going "Hello?" "Hellloooo???" It is kind of annoying. I am using a Jabra BT8010 headset.
I've now tried several different bluetooth mono headsets, and all connect to the phone fine with one problem....
You don't hear anything. No one can hear me, I can't hear them through the headset. When a call connects I hear a pop in the headset and nothing after that point. I'm seriously ****ing over this problem. You can adjust the volume and end calls with the buttons on the headset which means the god damn thing is obviously connected, but why cannot I not hear anything!
Has anyone else had it, and if so how do I fix it. The headset in question is a Nokia BH-104.
I got myself a bluetooth headset recently. It's Plantronics 855, and I had one with my old phone until I lost it. Never had a problem with it. However, with my Shift, it's started this funny thing where the phone will say the headset is paired but not connected. I'll click it to connect, and it will say "Connected to Media Audio," but it never connects to phone audio. The only solution that I have found is to restart the phone.
Anyone know anything about this, or experience anything similar? Better yet, know a solution?
FWIW, I'm running MikShifted-G.
I'm not sure if this is a headset issue, or Rom issue. Try deleting the headset out of the phone. Power down the phone, then restart the phone. Then try pairing the headset back up, and see if that solves the issue. If not, do you have another cell phone you can pair the headset up with? To check if the issue follows the headset. Then maybe try pairing up another headset to the phone.
I'll give all of that a shot. I do have another phone I can pair with - a Blackberry. I had the headset connected to it for a while, but not long enough to see if this problem happened.
I have the same issue
I have an android, thunderbolt phone, and a jabra drive handsfree car speaker and the same thing happens to me.
Sometimes turning bluetooth off and on works other times rebooting the phone works and sometimes nothing works and then a day later it pairs.
I hate blue tooth. A wire always works.
It's a headset AND phone issue. But never had an earpiece connect to the wrong one.
I don't know what I changed, but I can't figure this one out.
Typically, when I have my plantronics headset connected, when the phone rings,
I hear my default ringtone (unless it is someone I have a specific ringtone attached)
When my bluetooth is OFF, the ringer is correct.
When I turn on and connect my plantronics voyager 5200, I get a very obnoxious LOUD
generic ringtone coming from somewhere.
I've uninstalled anything I can think of, that might have messed it up (Truecaller, plantronics
app, Contacts +). I don't know what I changed, but I'd like to get it back how I had it.
Any ideas??
TIA!
Figured it out finally.
Phone dialer, settings, turn off VOICE BROADCAST OF INCOMING CALLS. Only when headset is connected.
