How can I pair a Bluetooth headset?

[slamorte]

I've got a Verizon tab and am trying to connect to a Bluetooth headset so I can make video calls with Fring or something else with a little more privacy than using the speakerphone.

I can't get the tab to find the headset!

I have successfully paired with a Bluetooth keyboard, mouse, and the Jawbone Jambox. While the audio out on the Jambox works fine, the built in mic does not work for speakerphone calls with the tab either.

Anyone have any idea what I can do?

Refer to the headset menu to perform a hard reset on it (on a nokia headset this done by simultaneously pressing power and action buttons till it alternates its LED between red and green). Activate the bluetooth on the tab and make it discoverable. In bluetooth setting scan for devices till the headset appears.

I have a TMobile tab with the same problem. It connects to my btooth antenna, but not my two btooth headsets.

My headset bluetooth also facing the same problem. I read the manual and it say i have to press the answer button for more than 8 second as a hard reset to the headset. Later my tab can detect the headset.

You should read the manual and try to do hard reset to your headset

Can't seem to find out how to reset the headset. Nothing in the manual or Google (it's a Samsung HM1100).

It's weird - the Astro Bluetooth network shows the headset in its Bluetooth explorer but the GT will not even see the device to pair to.

Firstly you open bluetooth under setting, wireless & network. Press scan for bluetooth. Result, it will not show any bluetooth found. Press back button once only. And again open bluetooth setting. Then you will see all bluetooth devices already detected.

This is a bug. I happen all the time to me.

Please try it
