I was trying to use my motorola bletooth headset. My Tilt did not detect it. The same is dedected by Motorola pones and Sony phones in seconds. Can someone please help?
I have had this problem with my H500. It worked after a reset but I don't use it anymore.
My phone wouldn't recognize my new Plantronics Discovery 925 headset. I tried pairing with a samsung headset too, it wouldn't recognize that either. But my phone recognizes other phones and works fine. Please help.

First and foremost, what ROM are you running? Are you on stock? Rooted? What modifications have you made, as those are the most likely culprits.
If the answer to all the above questions (save for stock) are no then I perhaps asking Plantronics or google about your phone/headset might work better as its likely that one or the other is defective.
I bought the phone only a week back and I have not made any changes to it. In fact my friend and I got our phones together. His phone is not recognizing the headset too. But my headset works fine with other phones of any make.
I have and use that specific headset on my Nexus S. And it works and pairs right away. Have you tried resetting the bluetooth before pairing?

Did you do anything particular before connecting your headset or did it just show up on the devices list?
Resetting the bluetooth as in switching on and off? Yes, I did.

Sorry, I dont understand. How do i set the headset to pairing mode? Please explain.
Folks, I finally managed to pair my headset with the phone. It is working fine now. Here is what I was doing wrong. I was trying to pair my device with the phone by just switching on the device and scanning for devices on my phone. When I try to scan, the device would not show up on the list.
This is because, the device was not in pairing mode. In the Plantronics Discovery 925, you need to switch off the device, power it on back by holding the power button and keep holding it until it flashes red and blue. This is when the device gets into pairing mode and it shows up on the phone's list. All this has to be done while the phone's bluetooth is ON and it is scanning for devices.
Hope this might help someone. My thanks to all those who cared to reply.
That's great you figured it out.
but here's for future reference:
Plantronics Discovery 925 (Pairing)
Pairing the Plantronics Discovery 925 to Your Cell Phone
1.Put your phone into pairing mode
This can usually be accomplished by going under settings in your menu and selecting Bluetooth. Follow the prompts to "find a new device." If you are having problems, refer to your phone's user guide.
2.Put your Discovery 925 into pairing mode
Start with your headset off. Press and hold the call button until the indicator flashes red and blue.
3.Select the headset in your phone's Bluetooth device menu and enter in universal key
Your phone may or may not ask you to enter in a key code. If it does, the code is always four zeros: 0000
4.You are paired up!
That is a rather ridiculous process, with my motorola I just have to flip the mic boom open and it works.

It's probably straightforward for some brands, not with others. My Jabra BT3030 still needs passcode entry for the initial pairing. After that, just turning it on pairs it with the unit.

Uh what? They're talking about the pairing process, you're talking about the connection process. Every bluetooth device every created in the history of mankind has to go through a pairing process. After the initial pairing, they all connect to each other automatically, your motorola is no different.
I have been unsuccessful in trying to connect my Galaxy Note with my JVC headunit of my car. The weird thing is that the same unit has no problems connecting with my Galaxy Tab.
Anyone else encountering the same problem?

I had a similar problem with the headunit in our car, the Vlingo app was stopping the pairing connection from completing, once Vlingo was disabled it paired ok, then turned Vlingo back on and all ok.
It may not be the same problem but hope it is of some help.

May be your headset is not compatible with Note. try different Headset.

Sorry, I should have said turn off launch on Bluetooth,
Go into app to Voice talk screen - menu - settings - ensure the Launch on Bluetooth box is NOT ticked, then try and pair with head unit again. The Launch on Bluetooth was stopping my Note pairing to my Nissan Connect head unit, once paired you can turn Launch on Bluetooth back on again.
Hope this helps

Hi people,
I am facing a problem that is driving me crazy and i need all the help i can get.
I have flashed my Gear 1 with TizenMod v2.0, but what i am saying also applies to stock Tizen versions NF1 and 700XXUCNE9.
I have set up the watch by connecting it with an HTC One running the GearManagerStub as we all as the Gear Manager according to the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2780493
Everything (that can work on an unrooted HTC One) is indeed working.
However, i want to use the Tizen Gear 1 with my iPhone 5S.
So i go to BT settings on the Gear, turn BT off (so that it disconnects from the HTC One) and then make it visible.
I then search (and find) the Gear from my 5S settings and when i try to pair the two the Gear pops up a message saying that it need to reset to factory defaults before it connects to another device. If i let that happen and then try to connect the iPhone, it does indeed connect as a Handsfree device but other than that i am locked in the video splash screen with directions on how to connect. That means that i cannot use the watch at all, apart from the basic handsfree functionality.
The odd thing is that i have been using the watch (stock Tizen 700XXUCNE9 ROM) with my iPhone 5 and a 5S in the past (meanwhile i downgraded to Android for some tests) and i cannot remember having that problem.
I also tried to connect the Gear (after being set up with the HTC One) with an iPhone 4 (no BLE support) and it DOES CONNECT without presenting that God damned "reset to factory defaults" message!!!
I know that the Gear (Tizen OS) does indeed work with the iPhone 5S. I have done it myself (see this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789095) and there is a thread on the Gear 2 forum where member @skeamznz claims the same http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2722069), therefore i am not (completely) crazy and imagining things.
Can someone help regarding my issue? Could someone with a Tizen running Gear try to connect to an iPhone > 4S and get back?
All help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance!!
Anyone?

Found it at last! I had installed the Air Blue Sharing Cydia tweak which is apparently somehow messing with the BT stack. After I uninstalled the tweak, I was immediately able to connect to the watch.
Just in case anyone is interested.
-- CASE CLOSED --
Please help me. I just got an Android Wear watch (LG Watch Urbane). The watch is showing as connected, however, it won't pair in the app. Please help me!
Until recently, I was using the other app for my Samsung Gear S. I will still use that one when I wear that watch. Please help.
