hey fellaz

I have a LG optimus dynamic "L38c" I turned on my Bluetooth ear piece and then went into settings.wireless/networks.Bluetooth. then I turned bluetooth and pressed scan for devices. but it doesn't find it.

I also tried on my wife phone which is the same exact model and hers didn't find it either.

then I tried on my old crap phone and it found the headset. so the heat set works.

what am I doing wrong? do I need to use discoverable mode?

thx

ohh so its different to connect it to my smart phone then it is to my non smart phone? when I connect the headset to my old phone I just turn on the head set and that's it. and the phone finds it.

No... Its exactly the same except youve paired your old phone with the headset in the past. If you could just connect to any headset straight away then anyone on the train could use yours
